What is this?!!? Feedback? And from an OUTSIDER?!

No, for real, we greatly appreciate it. One little comment like that makes a show and all the visualization worthwhile.

Worst fears were realized today when Eric Young visited a local Kansas City doctor where it was realized he has a torn bicep.  The injury will reportedly keep him out of action for 7 months.  The Tag Team Title match will go on as planned at Blaze of Glory on May 23rd, with partner Petey Williams apparantly given the green light to pick a partner of his choosing.  We wish Eric Young a speedy and safe recovery.

NWA Central States Wrestling presents....
CSW Cyclone Saturday Night


May 20, 2006
Announcers: Joey Styles & Tazz
Kansas City Uptown Theatre



Cyclone Spotlight: Brent Albright v Kid Kash
The Cyclone Spotlight match opened up again, with Brent Albright trying to make it 3 in a row. Kash was determined however, and took it right to Albright. Albright worked on Kash’s arm, no doubt to prepare for the Crowbar. Kash fought away and hit a flurry of offense in the middle of the match including some nice armdrags and a dropkick to the face. Finish came when Kash went up top and tried a sunset flip. He made it over Albright, but when he went to hook the arms, Albright sat down, ala Bulldog-Bret at Summerslam 92.

Albright defeats Kash by pinfall in 5:21 (69/58/80)

Styles: Another impressive victory for Albright. We’ll be seeing him open up the show next week, and I’m starting to wonder who can stop this momentum.

Quarterfinal Tournament Match: X-pac v Shelton Benjamin
All Tournament matches have a 15 minute time limit. X-pac and Shelton shook hands in the middle of the ring to start this one off. A nice exchange of armdrags and armlocks eventually lead to both attempting a dropkick and hitting nothing but each other’s feet. The crowd applauded the opening. Shelton then took control, using a mainly mat-based approach to keep X-pac grounded. Shelton worked over X-pac’s shoulder, but X-pac eventually squirmed away and nailed a spinning heel kick sending Benjamin to the outside. X-pac then followed with a plancha over the top rope, nailing Benjamin into the announce table. X-pac took over in the ring and had control, nailing the bronco buster and a brainbuster for a near fall. As X-pac went to the top rope, Alex Shelley came walking down the aisle. X-pac jumped off the top and exchanged words with X-pac from the inside of the ring to the outside. Benjamin spun X-pac around into a small package for a 2.75 count. X-pac turned his attention back to Benjamin and nailed a hard kick to the side of the head before hitting a kick to the stomach and attempting the X-Factor. Benjamin though pulled away at the last minute, and his his own spinning kick to X-pac, sending him against the ropes, where Shelley bashed him in the back of the head with an object in his hand. X-pac stumbled forward, and Benjamin grabbed him for a Northern Lights suplex and the win!

Benjamin defeats X-pac by pinfall in 11:14. (75/69/82)
Post-Match: Benjamin celebrated down the aisle with the fans as Shelley slid into the ring. He picked up X-pac, and nailed him with the Shellshock, leaving him in the middle of the ring. Shelley reached into his tights and pulled out the object that he nailed X-pac with. He revealed a Remote Control, and set it on X-pac’s chest before leaving the ringside area.

Tazz: What a great match between these two. A shame to see this kid Shelley get involved in the finish, but I have a feeling he’ll get what’s coming to him. Oh, speaking of getting what’s coming....

Bret Hart walks out to the ringside area and talks to Tazz closely. After a brief discussion, Tazz heads to the back, and Bret Hart sits down next to Joey Styles.

Styles: Well I guess right now I’d like to welcome the President of Central States Wrestling, Bret Hart. Mr. Hart, can I ask why you’re joining me right now?

Hart: Sure Joey. It’s simple really. The next segment we have goin on here could get a little heated, and after the situation last week, I thought it would be best if Tazz just took a quick break from announcing.


In-Ring Segment: The Franchise Has a Question
Shane Douglas heads to the ring and grabs a microphone.

Douglas: Kansas City, please welcome my guest at this time....Roderick Strong!

Roderick Strong comes out of the entryway and reveal Austin Aries walking behind him. They each slide into the ring with a smug smile on their faces.

Douglas: Good, I’m glad you decided to bring your buddy with you here. I know you guys were told this would be a chance for you to get a little mic time and put yourselves over, but guess what, it isn’t. What you’ve just done is come into my segment, my time, and MY challenge. You guys think you got one over on me last week when you beat my ass in this ring? Do you know what I’ve been through in my career? You think I can’t handle two punks like you? Well think again. Because right now I’m laying out the challenge to you two, in just a few days, at Blaze of Glory.

Strong: Franchise, you’ve lost your damn mind. Sure, we’ll accept your little challenge, since this company doesn’t seem to have anything better for us to do right now. I guess we can tread water for a bit and kill off some legen—er wait. I mean, kill off some has-beens. I can only assume that the “Human Commentary Machine” Tazz is gonna be your partner on May 23rd, and quite frankl—

Strong is cut-off mid-sentence by the familiar music of Tazz. Orange light fills the entry way as Strong and Aries turn their attention towards the ramp. As they’re waiting for Tazz to come out of the smoke, Tazz jumps the barricade and calmly stands behind Aries with a towel over his head. Out of nowhere, Tazz slaps on the Taz-Mission, with Aries flailing about in his arms. Strong turns around a moment to late, and is snatched up by The Franchise, who plants him with a belly-to-belly suplex in the middle of the ring. Tazz releases Aries and they stand over their prey.

Quarter-final Tournament Match: Samoa Joe v Masato Tanaka
Joe and Tanaka stared each other down in the middle of the ring, Tanaka still perturbed at Joe’s post match attack from last week. They started by exchanging hard chops to the chest right in the middle of the ring, neither man wanting to back down. Eventually Tanaka took control, whipping Joe off the ropes and nailing a stiff elbow. Joe responded in kind by flooring Tanaka with a clothesline. Around the 5 minute mark, Joe nailed a hard kick to the back while Tanaka was in a seated position. He followed with an even harder kick to the chest, and hit a senton after bouncing off the ropes. Joe went for the cover, but Tanaka kicked out quickly. Joe whipped Tanaka off the ropes, but Tanaka ducked under Joe and grabbed him, nailing a hard release German Suplex for a 2 count. At the 10 minute mark, both men kicked it up another notch. Joe nailed a snap powerslam, and then set Tanaka on the top rope. Joe tried to grab him for the Muscle-Buster, but Tanaka wouldn’t allow it. Joe nailed a hard right hand to Tanaka’s face, and tried to grab him for an Island Driver instead. Tanaka dropped a few elbows into Joe’s face, and then flipped himself off the ropes, nailing the Diamond Dust on Joe. He quickly covered, but Joe got his foot on the rope as the time-keeper informed us there were 3 MINUTES REMAINING. Tanaka picked Joe up and tried for another German Suplex, but Joe wasn’t budging. Joe did a standing switch and went to lock on the Kokina Clutch. Tanaka grabbed Joe’s arms before he could lock it around his throat. Tanaka bit at Joe’s arm to keep it off of his throat, and then quickly spun around with an elbow to Joe’s face to knock him away. 2 MINUTES REMAINING. Tanaka charged at Joe and attempted a Roaring Elbow, but Joe ducked, and nailed a kick to the stomach. He picked Tanaka up and hit a hard powerbomb, but Tanaka kicked out. Joe quickly turned it into an STF, trying to force Tanaka to tap out. Joe switched to a crossface, but Tanaka still wouldn’t tap. 1 MINUTE REMAINING. He continued the pressure on Tanaka as the crowd grew with the time limit expiring. Out of nowhere Joe released the crossface, and snapped the Kokina Clutch on Tanaka from behind, rolling him over and locking him in a legscissors as well. Tanaka was fading, and the BELL RANG!!

Samoa Joe drew Masato Tanaka in 15:00. (85/74/97)
Post-Match: Joe looked up at referee Charles Robinson in astonishment. Robinson informed him that the time limit had expired. Joe looked down at Tanaka, still almost unconscious on the mat. Joe suddenly started shaking, his head looking like it might explode. The crowd broke out in a “5 MORE MINUTES” chant, but Joe didn’t even seem to hear it. He went to ringside and grabbed a chair, throwing it in the ring. Tanaka was in a seated position, and Joe crashed the chair down over his head. Joe laid the chair in the ring, and picked up Tanaka for the Muscle-Buster, nailing it squarely on the chair. Joe left the ringside area to a mixed reaction from the crowd.

Styles: What a match! 15 minutes and these guys weren’t done yet. I understand Joe is frustrated, as both competitors are now eliminated from the tournament. But did we really need that after the match?

Quarter-Final Tournament Match: Road Dogg v Jeff Jarrett
The announcers talked about the deep history between Jarrett and Road Dogg. First as tag team partners in the then WWF, then as rivals, and good friends, on to their days in TNA together. Jarrett and Road Dogg stood center ring and exchanged words, seeming to come to a conclusion together. Road Dogg put his fist out, and Jarrett quickly tapped it with his and grabbed a headlock to start the match. Back and forth action to open up, including alot of headlocks and attempts to gain the upper hand. At the 5 minute mark, Jarrett attempted to charge Road Dogg in the corner, but Road Dogg got both feet up and floored Jarrett. Road Dogg made the cover for a near fall. Jarrett took control back after a back suplex. He went for a body slam, but Road Dogg fell behind him and pushed him off the ropes into a rollup sequence for another 2 count. Road Dogg nailed a series of punches on Jarrett, and did a little dance on the last one before swinging and missing. Jarrett ducked, and schoolboyed Road Dog for the win!

Jarrett defeats Road Dogg by pinfall in 9:11. (77/78/76)
Post-Match: Road Dogg nearly kicked out, and as both got to their feet, they got in each other’s faces again. It looked like it might come to blows, but they quietly exchanged words before shaking hands and leaving the ring to a nice reaction from the crowd.

Styles: Jeff Jarrett advances in the tournament, and seems to show a bit of a soft side for the first time in years. These two haven’t met in a one on one encounter in a long time, but still put on a great match.

Backstage Segment: Paparazzi Productions
X-pac is walking backstage, and looks to have a purpose. He walks by Shelton Benjamin and accidentally bumps him on the shoulder in passing. Benjamin turns.

Benjamin: Hey, Sean, hope there isn’t any bad beef from tonight. I had no clue Shelley was getting involved. And you know me, I’m a competitor. I want to win. And you take the breaks that life deals you.

X-pac: No man, I know. I just gotta find that little bitch. I don’t know what his problem is anyway.

Benjamin: Well good luck bro. I’m out. Gotta go pay Charlie a visit at the hospital. Great match tonight, and good luck with your pest problem.

X-pac: Thanks man, and congrats on the win. Good luck in that tourney. I wanna see you holding that CSW Title high at Blaze of Glory.

With that, X-pac heads down the hallway before seeing a door marked ALEX SHELLEY. X-pac pushes the door open with force and begins to say something before he is cut off by what he sees inside. A video camera is positioned on a tripod pointed directly at X-pac, and a TV Monitor is sitting right below the camera. A yellow post-it sticker reads “TURN ME ON”. X-pac pulls the sticker off and reaches into his pocket. He stares at the remote control that Shelley left with him earlier in the evening. With a bit of hesitation, he turns on the monitor. Alex Shelley’s face quickly fills the television monitor:

Shelley: That’s good X-pac. Yes, turn it on. Very good. Now listen to me closely cause I’m only gonna say this once. I can see you, so it is only fair that you can see me. Now, I have a lit—

X-pac: Shelley, what the hell is this? And what the hell—

Shelley: Ah-ah-ah X-pac. I didn’t say Shelley Says. Look punk, you made a mistake. You got lucky and you beat me in the first round of the CSW Title Tournament. It may have just been another match to you, but to me it is my destiny. The CSW Title wants to be around my waist, but now it doesn’t get to be because of you. So I did the only fair thing. I set Karma straight, and made sure you didn’t advance any farther either. You can thank me later. Regardless, this leaves a nice little opening in both of our schedules for Tuesday, May 23rd at Kemper Arena. So without further ado, on to our feature presentation: I’ll see your ass in the ring at Blaze of Glory. You wanted to find me, and guess what? You did. And I’ll see you on the 23rd. Bring your wrestling boots sonny! Oh, and just one more thing.

Shelley pulls his own remote control up into the picture, and pushes a button while he mouths a “click” sound. Suddenly, the lights go out in the locker room where X-pac was standing. Commotion fills the room, and after a few passing seconds, the lights switch back on to reveal X-pac lying in a heap next to the now destroyed electronics equipment.

Blaze of Glory Run-down
Back at ringside now with Joey Styles and Bret Hart, who run down the Blaze of Glory card set for this Tuesday, May 23rd at Kemper Arena.

X-pac and Alex Shelley will meet one on one at Blaze of Glory in an effort to settle their differences.

Their first time together in a ring in years, Tazz and Shane Douglas will join forces to take on the team of Austin Aries and Roderick Strong.

Reportedly, the Natural Born Thrillers, Sean O’Haire and Mark Jindrak, will be at Blaze of Glory and have issued an open challenge to any tag team.

Jeff Jarrett will take on Shelton Benjamin in the Semi-Finals of the Owen Hart Memorial Tournament. The winner will move on to face the winner of tonight’s main event in the finals, for the CSW Championship.

A huge 8 man match will kick off the show featuring some of CSW’s best young stars including Brent Albright, Chris Sabin, and Kid Kash. Many new faces will be debuting in this match as well.

The Tag Team Titles will be decided when The Mexicools take on Petey Williams and a partner of his choosing. Williams has been given permission to select any partner to substitute for the injured Eric Young, who is out 7 months with a torn bicep.

And just announced by President Bret Hart, a rematch between Samoa Joe and Masato Tanaka! They may have had a draw in the tournament, but this match will be with no time limit, one fall to a finish.


Quarter-final Tournament Match: Triple H v Billy Gunn
Gunn and Triple H came to the ring as the announcers put over the fact that the winner of this match will be in a great position on Tuesday thanks to the draw earlier in the evening between Samoa Joe and Masato Tanaka. The winner would advance straight to the finals, and would have the evening off, while Shelton Benjamin and Jeff Jarrett face each other in a Semi-Final matchup. Gunn tackled Triple H right when he got into the ring, taking the beating straight to him. They rolled out of the ring, still entangled and fought all around the ringside area. Triple H took control after slamming Gunn’s head into the announce table, and then whipped him into the steel barricade at ringside. Back in the ring, around the 7 minute mark, Triple H stayed on the offensive, and locked Gunn in a sleeper hold, taking him down to the mat. The crowd rallied Gunn back up, where he locked in a sleeper hold of his own, and dropped Triple H to the mat with it, leaving them both lying. The finish came after both men got to their feet and exchanging punches, with Gunn taking the upper hand. He set Triple H up for the Fame-Asser, but Triple H powered out, flipping Gunn over. Gunn landed on his feet, but Triple H kicked him in the stomach, and hit the Pedigree out of nowhere for the win! Triple H advances to the Finals of the Owen Hart Memorial Tournament for the CSW Title.

Triple H defeats Gunn by pinfall in 11:11. (73/71/76)
Post-Match: Triple H looks down at the fallen Billy Gunn as the referee raises his hand. Triple H quickly pulls his arm away from the ref, and rolls out of the ring to grab the ring bell. Gunn slowly gets to his feet, and Triple H levels him with the bell. He looks out at the crowd and grabs hold of Billy Gunn’s leg. He drops elbow after elbow on the prone Gunn, and begins dragging him to the corner. It looked like he was gonna set him up for the figure four around the ringpost just like he did to Charlie Haas, but Road Dogg came flying down the aisle and into the ring. Road Dogg stuns Triple H with a few punches, but Triple H nails a kick to the groin. He picks up the ring bell, and now levels Road Dogg with it as well. Triple H drags Road Dogg to the corner now. He wraps his knee around the post a few times, and then positions himself to put the Figure Four on Road Dogg around the ringpost......


In-Ring Segment: Turning a New Page
Jeff Jarrett comes flying down the aisle and runs to ringside, blindsiding Triple H and sending him into the announcers table. Triple H looks up at him and says “What the hell do you think you’re doing?!”. Jarrett rolls Road Dogg away from the ringpost, and exchanges words with Triple H. Jarrett seems to be saying “Not this way. Not in this tournament”. Triple H is fuming mad standing there listening to Jarrett. Triple H’s expression changes as he seems to be agreeing with Jarrett. He starts walking away from the situation, and Jarrett looks over to check on Gunn as well. Out of nowhere, Triple H charges him and knocks him into the ringside barricade. Jarrett bounces up quickly though, and he and Triple H exchange hard right hands as we go off the air!

Styles: Unbelievable! What have we just seen here. Jeff Jarrett of all people saves the day, and he and Triple H are going at it. Fans we’ve got to go! We’ll see you at Kemper Arena on Tuesday!

Alex Shelley v X-Pac

Samoa Joe v Masato Tanaka
- I was never a big Tanaka fan, and I don't see him stepping on Joe.

CSW Tag Team Titles: Mexicools v Petey Williams & ???????
- ???? always wins. Always!

Aries & Strong v Douglas & Tazz
- Douglas blows for the most part, and I never cared for him too much. Tazz is good, but Aries and Strong are the future. They get the win.

Semi-Finals: Jeff Jarrett v Shelton Benjamin
- I dig Jarrett, but Shelton/Trips is a good thing, IMO. Money match, so go with it.

CSW Championship: Triple H v TBA
- Of course Shelton with the title right now = no. King of Kings goes back on his throne, post haste.

NWA Central States Wrestling presents....
CSW Blaze of Glory


May 23, 2006
Announcers: Joey Styles & Bret Hart
Kemper Arena, Kansas City, MO



Posted Image

Opening Match: 8 Man Tag Team Elimination Match:
Brent Albright, Chris Chetti, James Gibson, and Chris Sabin
v Elix Skipper, Kid Kash, Vampiro, and Mike Sanders

The announcers welcomed everyone to Blaze of Glory and introduced the first match. They mentioned that Chetti, Skipper, Vampiro, and Sanders were all making their respective debuts in this match, and that there was a rumor swirling that this could be Chris Sabin’s final match in CSW. The action was fast and furious, too quick to document. Sabin was eliminated first by a Vampiro powerbomb, followed by Chetti who fell to a brainbuster from Kid Kash. James Gibson then took over, eliminated Kash with the dragon sleeper, and pinning Elix Skipper with a Tiger Driver. Gibson and Vampiro then went head to head, with Vampiro getting the best of him after some Sanders interference. It was down to Albright v Vampiro and Sanders. After a struggle with each, Albright got the Crowbar on Vampiro, who tapped out. As Albright stood over his prey, Mike Sanders snuck in the ring behind him, and as Albright turned around, Sanders rolled him into a small package for the win!.

Mike Sanders defeats Brent Albright (last eliminated) by pinfall. (69/72/64)

Styles: Impressive debuts all around for Sanders, Vampiro, Chetti, and Skipper, but the nod has to go to Mike Sanders, who managed to pin the streaking Brent Albright.


X-pac v Alex Shelley
The match started quickly as X-pac attacked Shelley from behind during his entrance. They brawled up and down the aisle before finally sliding in the ring and officially beginning the match. A bit of a brawl as compared to their last encounter, which was more wrestling based. X-pac, understandably upset at Shelley’s recent antics, took it to him with stiff kicks to the face. Shelley battled back and took the upper hand, locking in a submission hold in the center of the ring. X-pac rallied with the crowd behind him and nailed a crossbody off the top for a near fall. X-pac took Shelley to the top rope to set him up for a superplex, but Shelley nailed a hard knee to X-pac face, slowing him down. Shelley then launched himself over X-pac, hitting a sunset flip powerbomb hard in the corner of the ring. Shelley propped his feet onto the middle rope and covered, for the 3 count!
Alex Shelley defeats X-pac by pinfall in 10:43. (76/64/89)
Post-Match: Shelley quickly slid out of the ring and backtracked up the aisle, pointing to his head the whole way while X-pac looked perturbed in the ring.

Styles: Great action from these two again tonight. I have a feeling this one is still far from over.

Semi-Final Tournament Match: Jeff Jarrett v Shelton Benjamin
Jarrett and Benjamin shake hands in the center of the ring before the match begins. Styles and Hart talk about Jarrett’s recent turn for the better, questioning the motivation behind it. Styles assumes it stems from the feeling of his friendship with Owen rushing back into his life again in the form of this tournament, while Hart is less than convinced of him motives. They began in a nice wrestling sequence, testing out each other’s limits and strategies. It stayed clean for the first 5 minutes or so, but then they gradually grew in intensity, both knowing the prize that could lie ahead. Shelton Benjamin attempted a springboard maneuver, but Jeff Jarrett countered with a dropkick to his sternum. Jarrett then hit a series of a suplex, backbreaker, and set Benjamin up for a piledriver. As he went to lift him, Benjamin countered, sending Jarrett over his back and crashing to the mat. Benjamin quickly regained the edge, heading to the top rope and nailing a dropkick on Jarrett for a near fall. He headed up top again, this time hitting a flying elbow for another near fall. Benjamin went to the top once more, but Jarrett was there with him this time. Jarrett attempted to climb the ropes, but Benjamin pounded him back down to the canvas. Jarrett, standing in the corner now, suddenly had Benjamin riding his shoulders, possibly setting up a victory roll. Benjamin rolled through, but Jarrett stopped cold, dropping to his knees, and scoring the clean pin!

Jeff Jarrett defeats Shelton Benjamin by pinfall in 12:02. (74/75/75)
Post-Match: Jarrett celebrates, pointing up to the rafters of Kemper Arena. Benjamin approaches and shakes his hand, but Jarrett opts for a brief hug instead. Benjamin raises Jarrett’s hand, the crowd responds with a load ovation for both men.

Styles: Jeff Jarrett has defeated Shelton Benjamin. Jarrett will go on to face Triple H for the CSW Championship tonight, and unfortunately, Shelton Benjamin’s quest to the title has ended here.


Austin Aries & Roderick Strong v Shane Douglas & Tazz
The announcers discuss the antic of Aries and Strong and their successful attempts to bring the two former ECW legends out of retirement. Hart questions that they may have awakened some sleeping giants. Big-time brawling match here that pretty much featured two guys in the ring, and two guys fighting at ringside the entire match. Tazz and Strong fought at ringside early, with Tazz nailing a hard T-Bone release suplex on the outside on Strong. In the ring, Aries tried to bring the match to the mat, but Douglas seemed game, exchanging wrestling holds with the younger Aries. Strong got away from Tazz long enough for the two to nail a double-team brainbuster on Douglas in the ring. Tazz and Aries now fought at ringside, with Strong in the ring unleashing his barrage of backbreakers on Douglas in an attempt to get a pin. Tazz slammed Aries head into the announce table. Aries swung wildly at Tazz, who ducked, and locked on the Tazzmission. Aries though, propelled himself towards the steel ring post, aiming just right and instead connecting it to Tazz’s head, flooring him. Meanwhile, in the ring, Roderick Strong nailed a hard backbreaker out of a powerbomb position on Douglas. Aries climbed to the top rope and nailed a beautiful 450 splash. With Tazz on the outside, it was all academic. 1, 2, 3.

Aries & Strong defeats Douglas & Tazz by pinfall in 9:50. (71/63/79)
Post-Match: Aries and Strong went to ringside, mugging in the face of the fans and celebrating with them, although the fans seemed less than enthused with their victory.

Styles: I’ll give it to Aries and Strong. They were impressive here tonight. They may have talked alot of crap over the last month, but at least they backed it up here tonight.

Natural Born Thrillers Open Challenge
Sean O’Haire and Mark Jindrak hit the ring and Jindrak grabbed a microphone:

Jindrak: Alright, we’ve come here to Kansas City tonight for one reason. We were screwed in the qualifying match for the CSW Tag Team Title. I mean, look at the title match....it doesn’t even have two tag teams! Team Canada couldn’t stay healthy long enough to make it to the title match, and meanwhile, you have two amazing physical specimens like ourselves sitting around with nothing to do. We’re young, we’re got the goods, we’ve got the training, and we can bring it in the ring. So if there is ANY tag team in the back that wants to try to come out here and hang with us....be our guest. And to the winner of the Tag Team Title match tonight, clear your schedule on Cyclone this week, because after we win tonight, we’re coming for our titles.

OH YOU DIDN”T KNOW?!!! YOUR ASS BETTER CALL SOMEBODY!!!!

It’s the New Age Outlaws. They’ve answered the challenge and charged to the ring in a mad dash. The match got underway with Billy Gunn and Mark Jindrak exchanging rights in the center of the ring. The Thrillers used their corner to their advantage most of the match, isolating Gunn and working him over with double-team maneuvers. O’Haire entered the ring and used his bizarre mix of power and speed to continue working over Gunn. Gunn eventually battled back, making the hot tag to Road Dogg for a reaction from the crowd. Road Dogg floored everyone with hard fists, and scored a near fall on Jindrak after a suplex. Billy Gunn and Jindrak fought it out in the ring, while Road Dogg took O’Haire to the top rope. Road Dogg scaled the ropes, setting up a superplex. Just then Austin Aries & Roderick Strong appeared at ringside, apparently hiding under the ring since their last match ended. Aries jumped up on the apron and grabbed Road Dogg’s head, dropping him throat first across the rope. O’Haire then position himself better on the top rope, and leapt off, nailing the Seanton for the pinfall!

Natural Born Thrillers defeat New Age Outlaws by pinfall in 8:23. (77/73/81)
Post-Match: Aries & Strong walk up the rampway to the back, still gloating from their earlier victory and now from their interference in this match. Billy Gunn helps Road Dogg up and looks on at the youngsters, who seem to be saying “2 more bite the dust” holding up 2 fingers as they walk away. .

Styles: Those guys planned this whole thing out. Hiding under the ring until they had an opportune moment to strike. And as a result, the Natural Born Thrillers do exactly as they said, and rolled over the competition here tonight.


Samoa Joe v Masato Tanaka
Joe and Tanaka stared each other down in the center of the ring, their recent 15 minute time limit draw fresh in their minds. Both were mouthing something that couldn’t quite be made out. Tanaka stepped away, as they circled each other to begin the match. A stiff match that saw Joe take control early on. He pounded Tanaka in the corner with alternating chops and punches, before hitting a series of face washes on Tanaka in the corner. Tanaka got to his feet and responded with some hard forearms to the face of Joe, before going behind Joe to attempt a german suplex. Joe ran backwards with Tanaka behind him, smashing him into the corner. Joe then got some momentum, and came crashing into the corner on Tanaka with a high knee to the face. Tanaka fell down out of the corner, and Joe covered for a 2 count. Joe then went on the offensive with his submission skills, trying to wear down Tanaka. Around the 10 minute mark, he locked in an STF for a solid minute, but Tanaka just seemed to be coping with the pain and didn’t even appear to be thinking of submitting. Tanaka finally reached the ropes for a break, and slid under the bottom rope for a breather. Joe responded with a baseball slide dropkick, sending Tanaka to the floor. Joe waited for Tanaka to get to his feet, and bounced off the ropes, flying through the top and middle rope with a suicide dive. But Tanaka nailed him with an Elbow. Tanaka, almost instinctively raised his elbow right into the temple of Joe as he came through the ropes. Joe appeared to be busted open hardway, blood dropping from his eyebrow. Tanaka now took control as the crowd react swelled. Tanaka whipped Joe into the guardrail, once, twice, and a third time. He grabbed a steel chair and folded it up, looking to the crowd. Joe caught him from behind with a hard kick, and took the chair from Tanaka, and crashed it down over his head, flooring him. He then set the chair up next to the barricade and set Tanaka on it, before getting himself some running room, and nailing the Ole kick right to Tanaka’s head, sandwiching him into the railing. Tanaka was now busted open as well. Now at the 20 minute mark, Joe rolled the bloody Tanaka into the ring. Joe whipped him into the ropes and snapped off a vicious powerslam for a very near fall. Joe tried to position Tanaka for a half-nelson suplex, but Tanaka powered out, and spun around, flooring Joe with a Roaring Elbow. Both men were down as the ref’s count reached 8. Tanaka whipped Joe into the corner, and charged, but Joe backdropped Tanaka. Tanaka though, landed on his feet on the apron, and then climbed to the top rope. He grabbed Joe from behind, unaware, and looked like he was going for the Diamond Dust. Joe, bending backward into position, thrust upwards with 3 vicious palms to the face of Tanaka, sending blood flying into the air. Joe, now free from Tanaka’s grasp, jumped up and flipped backwards, hitting the Pele kick to Tanaka’s skull. Joe grabbed Tanaka, still seated on the top rope, and crashed him down with a Musclebuster in the center of the ring. He made a quick and hard cover for the 3 count!

Samoa Joe defeats Masato Tanaka by pinfall in 25:14. (87/77/97)
Post-Match: Joe laid on the mat, obviously spent from his encounter. The referee raised his hand, and Tanaka got to his feet as well. Tanaka, with dried blood on his forehead, walked to Joe and extended his hand. Joe looked at him, and looked towards the crowd. Joe slapped Tanaka hard with his open hand. Tanaka looked down, and immediately retaliated, hitting a series of hard elbows to Joe’s face. Tanaka slid out of the ring and grabbed a steel chair. Back in the ring, he smacked Joe over the head with the chair 3 times, mangling the chair, and leaving Joe lying in the ring. Tanaka stood over him with the chair in hand, looking down and saying “You Learn Respect!”.

Styles: Another amazing encounter between these two. It just keeps getting more and more brutal. And why won’t Joe shake Tanaka’s hand? Does he not respect him?


Backstage Segment: The King of Kings
Triple H is shown sitting in his locker room, lacing up the top lace on his boots and grabbing his tape to wrap his hands.

Triple H: The Championship. This is Central States Wrestling. This is my new home. Back at my old home, I held 10 World Titles. The past is the past though, and now we move on to the future. My future is the CSW Championship, and tonight, my future becomes my reality. Jeff Jarrett? Is this some kind of joke or something? First you attack me last week. Jeff, I know you haven’t been around the big leagues in a while, but a few things changed while you were gone. Never get involved in my business. It never works out well for the little guys. You know, I’ve had to listen to tired comparisons between me and you for the last 4 years. Triple H and Jeff Jarrett? Are you kidding me? People like to talk about backstage politicians. People like to say we both had the bloodline working for us. Well this is a new day Jeff Jarrett. Neither of us have any political affiliation; neither of us have any family members backstage pulling the strings. So what happens now, when it is just two guys meeting in the center of the ring? Who is hungrier Jeff? I can tell you who is fresher....me. The guy who didn’t have to wrestle tonight. Jeff Jarrett, when it is all said and done, and you look to me as the CSW Champion, just remember....this is what I do, and it’s all business.

CSW Tag Team Title Match: Mexicools v Petey Williams & ?????????
The Mexicools came down to the ring first, awaiting their opponents. Petey Williams walked out on the ramp and stood for a moment, looking at the crowd. As Team Canada’s music played, Petey motioned to the stage, unveiling Johnny Devine walking out of the entryway. Devine and Petey slapped hands, and they walked to the ring. The match started out with Devine and Psicosis exchanged a wristlock sequence that ended with Psicosis hitting a tilt-a-whirl armdrag on Devine, who looked befuddled. He tagged in Petey, who went to work on Psicosis. Petey nailed a vicious russian legsweep, and floated over into a pin attempt. In the middle of the match, Devine and Petey tried to keep the quick Mexicools positioned in their corner for some double teams. The Mexicools though, made quick tags and managed to stay fresh and keep the match at their pace. The finish came when Devine was thrown to the outside by Super Crazy. Crazy then bounced off the ropes, and hit a running springboard plancha on Devine, sprawling them on the outside. Psicosis then climbed to the top rope, about to dive to the outside as well. Petey nailed him in the back, crotching him on the top rope. Petey climbed up behind him, and hit a huge release German Suplex from the top rope. Crazy was getting to his feet on the outside, so Petey floored him with a baseball slide. Petey turned his attention back to Psicosis, who he grabbed and set up for the Canadian Destroyer. Devine though, ran into the ring and slapped Petey on the back, motioning for him to instead give him a powerbomb. Devine pointed to the top rope as Petey begrudgingly agreed, dropping Psicosis for a moment. Devine climbed the ropes and squatted on the top rope as Petey grabbed Psicosis for a powerbomb. He took him up, but Psicosis flipped over the top of Petey into a sunset flip. 1, 2, 3!!! Psicosis just rolled Petey up for the win, with Devine still crouching on the top rope, with his mouth hanging wide open.

Mexicools defeat Petey Williams & Johnny Devine by pinfall in 10:02. (74/64/85)
Post-Match: The Mexicools grab their titles and head into the crowd, celebrated. Meanwhile, in the ring, Devine walks up to Petey and looks to say something when his head down. Petey shoves Devine, asking him what the hell he was thinking. Petey says they had the match won. Devine looks like he is asking for forgiveness as Petey exits the ring and walks away.

Styles: Well, we have new CSW Tag Team Champions in the Mexicools, and Petey Williams and his new tag team partner look to have some serious issues to work out!

Finals of the Owen Hart Memorial Tournament
CSW Championship Match: Triple H v Jeff Jarrett

Jarrett and Triple H made their respective entrance as Bret Hart stood in the ring holding the Central States Wrestling Championship. The referee gave explicit instructions to each men as Bret presented the belt in front of each. Bret headed for the commentary table as Jarrett and Triple H stood in the middle of the ring, face to face. They didn’t say a word, instead, appearing to attempt to view each other’s thoughts. Finally Jarrett put his hand out for a handshake. Triple H smiled and backed away, and Jarrett pulled it away and circled the ring with Triple H. They locked up to open the match, with Triple h gaining the power advantage and backing Jarrett into the corner. The referee ordered a clean break, and Triple H slowly released, before pounding a fist into Jarrett’s ribs. The feeling out process continued until Triple H teased hitting a Pedigree before Jarrett backdropped him over the top rope to the outside. At the 6 minute mark, Jarrett headed outside, trading punches with Triple H in front of the announce table. Jarrett whipped Triple H to the ringside steps, and Triple H hit them knee first, collapsing right in front of them. Jarrett whipped Triple H back into the ring, and went right to work on the injured knee. He set Triple H’s leg on the bottom rope, and came crashing down on it with all of his weight. Jarrett stayed in control, whipping Triple H off the ropes, and attempting a leapfrog, but he came down wrong on his left knee, tweaking it. Triple H stopped himself against the ropes and regained himself, sensing Jarrett was in trouble. As the referee held Jarrett with one arm, checking his knee, Triple H came from behind and clipped Jarrett’s knee hard from the backside. Triple H now went to work himself. Both men, well known pupils of Ric Flair, seemed to be re-enacting every minute of Flair’s lifelong work, destroying the knee. At the 12 minute mark, Triple H took it to another level, sliding to the outside and pulling Jarrett to the corner. Triple H wrapped Jarrett’s knee around the post hard 3 times, and then grabbed his legs in the figure four position. The referee jumped to the outside and got in Triple H’s face, hastily warning him that he would be disqualified if he attempted the move. Triple H thought better of it, and slid in the ring, dragging Jarrett to the center with him. Triple H applied the figure four leglock in the center of the ring. After a long fight, Jarrett almost submitted, but summoned the power to turn it over, pumping his fists all the way. Once turned over, Jarrett was placing the pressure back on Triple H’s knee, which he worked over earlier. Triple H looked as if he might tap out from the excruciating pain, but managed to roll over again, tangling both men in the ropes. Triple H was first to his feet, and Jarrett followed shortly after. Both men, noticeably limping, Triple H stalked Jarrett, kicking his knee out from under his knee from behind, repeatedly. Triple H kept kicking Jarrett, almost flipping him out of his boots. Jarrett finally lay in the middle of the ring, just looking for one last gasp. Triple H grabbed Jarrett’s leg and dropped a hard elbow over his knee. Grabbing his leg again, he this time dropped a legdrop over the knee. But something was wrong?! Triple H’s face suddenly changed as he mouthed “shit!”. Jarrett had his leg, and crisscrossed it with the other, turning over and climbing to his feet. He had Triple H in the Sharpshooter, right in the center of the ring. The pressure pushing down on Triple H’s knee was too immense, and he finally tapped out, giving Jeff Jarrett the CSW Championship!!

Jeff Jarrett defeats Triple H by submission in 18:43. (88/87/89)
Post-Match: Jarrett releases the hold when he hears the bell, and lies in a heap in the center of the ring, exhausted from his 2 matches this evening. Bret Hart walks up the stairs and into the ring with the CSW Championship in hand. As he approaches Jarrett, he has a look of acceptance on his face. They embrace, and Bret raises Jarrett’s arm up with a glimmer in his eye. Jarrett wipes his face, holding his CSW Championship high in the air with his other hand.

Styles: What a moment! Jeff Jarrett is the CSW Champion after a grueling battle with Triple H. What a truly memorable first Supershow for Central States Wrestling. Fans, we’ll see you on Cyclone this Saturday Night!

I'd SOOO enjoy an actual Joe-Tanaka match.

And who knew Jarrett could do a submission move other than the figure four?

CSW Cyclone Saturday Night Preview for May 27, 2006:

Quote:

The fallout from Blaze of Glory is upon us.  Jeff Jarrett captured the CSW Championship, and will be in attendance.  Not only will he offer his thoughts on an emotional night this past Tuesday, but he'll also be in the commentary booth for the main event:  A #1 Contender Match for the CSW Championship.

Triple H and Shelton Benjamin haven't been on the same page since they got to Central States Wrestling, and this week on Cyclone, they'll finally get a chance to iron out their differences in the ring, with a chance at the Championship at CSW Redemption on the line!

Also, The Mexicools will make their first CSW Tag Team Title defense, fresh off their victory over Team Canada at Blaze of Glory.  Their opponents?  The young, cocky, and suddenly streaking team of Mark Jindrak and Sean O'Haire, the Natural Born Thrillers.  The Thrillers issues an open challenge at Blaze of Glory, and asked for this title shot -- request granted!

Brent Albright has retained his spot in the Cyclone Spotlight every week, but faces a true test this week.  At Blaze of Glory, Albright was pinned in the center of the ring in the opening contest, an 8 man tag team match, by none-other than new CSW Signee, Mike Sanders.  Sanders reportedly wants the Spotlight to himself, and will open the show one on one with Brent Albright. 

And in breaking news, reportedly a big announcement will be made this week on Cyclone that will change CSW for the next few weeks.  No word on what it will be, but be sure to tune in at 6:05 on TBS, and don't miss a minute of the action on Cyclone Saturday Night.

Cyclone Spotlight: Brent Albright v Mike Sanders
Cyclone opened up with the Cyclone Spotlight match. Brent Albright headed to the ring to an increasingly bigger crowd reaction, and one of the newest members of the CSW Roster, Mike Sanders, join him in the ring. Sanders grabbed a microphone:

Sanders: Ah, so this is Cyclone Saturday night. Feels good to be here. So good in fact, that I think it is time that I get cozy and make myself one of the regular attractions on Saturday Nights. And what better way to do that, then by winning the Cyclone Spotlight match and cementing myself into the opening of the hottest program on cable TV. It shouldn’t be hard, I mean, after all Brent, I did pin you just earlier this week. So lets not beat around the bush, lets do this thing....

Sanders charged at Albright and immediately ate mat courtesy of an Albright drop toehold. Albright kept Sanders stuck to the mat, shifting his focus from his normal expertise of the shoulder to Sanders right knee. Sanders eventually freed himself as the two men went crashing over the top rope when Sanders hit a clothesline on Albright. Sanders attacked Albright on the outside, slamming his back into the ring apron. Back in the ring, Sanders slapped a bow and arrow on Albright, trying to force him to submit. Albright refused to lose, and came back with some vicious clotheslines and a dropkick to the knee of Sanders. Albright grabbed Sanders for a Texas Cloverleaf, but Sanders grabbed a hand full of hair in grabbed a small package: 1, 2....Albright shifted his weight, rolling Sanders over on his back instead: 1, 2, 3!

Albright defeats Sanders by pinfall in 8:21 (64/55/74)
Post-Match: Sanders immediately hops up, getting in the referee’s face and questioning his count to 3. Albright walks by and puts 3 fingers right up in Sanders face as he exits the ring. Sanders stares at Albright as he walks down the aisle, with a look of revenge on his face.

Styles: Mike Sanders with a valiant effort, but it looks like Albright learned from their time in the ring earlier this week. Another impressive victory, as Brent Albright holds on to the spotlight.


In-Ring Segment: Old School Idea for some New Gold
Joey Styles is in the ring, standing next to a mysteriously shaped podium, which is covered in a black sheet. Styles addresses the crowd:

Styles: Ladies and Gentlemen. I have been given the privilege to at this time make a major announcement which will affect CSW over the next few weeks. As per order of the CSW President, Bret “Hitman” Hart, NWA: Central States will once again be “making the old school new again” when it brings you a concept from the early 90’s of NWA and WCW. The return of Battlebowl: The Lethal Lottery. The concept is simple, but winning is quite challenging. On June 30th, Central States Wrestling will present Redemption, which will feature the culmination of Battlebowl. Turn your attention to the video screen for a complete rundown of the rules and schedule:

NWA: CSW presents Battlebowl: The Lethal Lottery
32 Top Central States Superstars
Paired Randomly in Tag Team Matchups
Winning Team Advances to 1 of 2 Eight Man Battle Royals
Winner of each Battle Royal face off at Redemption on June 30.

Schedule:
June 3: 4 Tag Team Matches – Group 1
June 10: 4 Tag Team Matches – Group 2
June 17: 8 Man Battle Royal – Group 1
June 24: 8 Man Battle Royal – Group 2
June 30: Redemption: 1 on 1 Match for....

Styles: And the reward for this difficult mixture of luck and skill? Gold of course. Introducing the second singles title in NWA: Central States: Bridging the gap here in Kansas City between the Kansas side (boos) and the Missouri side (cheers), this is the Kansas City Border Championship!!

With that, Styles pulls the sheet off of the object, revealing a glass case sitting atop a stand. Inside lies the KC Border Championship. Suddenly, some unfamiliar music fills the arena as the fans look towards the entryway. Emerging from behind the curtain is none-other than CSW’s newest superstar: Steve Corino. Corino saunters to the ring to an immediate negative reaction from the crowd. He steps into the ring, looking at the KC Border Championship in its glass case, and extends his hand towards Joey Styles, asking for his microphone. Styles hands it over with a look of disdain on his face:

Corino: Oh Joey my good man, so nice to see you as well. Helllllllo Kansas City! Boy is it good to be here. Surely, you all know where I’ve been right? Well let me tell you in case you don’t. I recently came from NWA: New England. That’s right, N..E..W, where I might add, I was well on my way to winning the NEW Heavyweight Championship. Quick message to Chris Jericho: You lucked out pal. And you’ll need all the luck you can muster to win that tournament. But speaking of LUCK! Do you know how much I’ve had to listen to people whine and complain about luck and curses?! For god’s sake, I’ve spent the last month wanting to stab myself in the ear with a pencil cause I’ve heard so much about the race for the playoffs between the SAHX and the YANKEES. People! Its May for crying out loud. Shut the ***k up! (The hometown crowd cheers the bashing of the twin powers). Oh no no no. Please tell me you idiots didn’t just cheer. Thats right, you have to cheer people making fun of REAL sports teams, cause you sure as hell don’t get to cheer for any teams around here. (Cheers instantly turn to boos). But enough sportscenter. It’s time to talk about why I’m here...

I’ve heard this is Central States Wrestling....where they make the old school new again? Well you sure else hell can’t talk about making the old school new without the “King of Old School”, Steve Corino. And Styles, make sure you keep your grubby little fingerprints off of that KC Border Title. In fact, just keep it in the glass case until June 30th at Redemption, at which point you can help me put it around my waist. Cause that’s right, I am officially the first entrant in Battlebowl. And a quick message to the fortunate soul that draws me as a random partner. Don’t try to get smart with me, don’t try to get cute in there. You just stand on the apron, and ride along on the coat tails of one of the most underrated wrestlers in the world today....Steve Corino!


Corino drops the mic and leaves the ring as the crowd entertains themselves with a “Shut The ***k Up! Clap, Clap, Clap-clap-clap” chant.

New Age Outlaws v Petey Williams & Johnny Devine
Billy Gunn and Johnny Devine started out in the ring. Gunn shoulderblocked Devine to the mat after a brief sequence off of the ropes. Devine tagged in the stronger Petey to try and take down Gunn. Petey went right to him, matching power with Gunn and dropping him with a shoulderblock of his own. Road Dogg entered the match, and Petey went into a nice arsenal of moves including a backbreaker, suplex, and side russian legsweep for a near fall. Devine tagged back in and immediately fell victim to a Road Dogg armdrag. The Outlaws kept Devine in their corner, working him over. Devine hit a back suplex, and looked to his corner. Bypassing the tag to Petey, Devine picked up Road Dogg for a brainbuster, but Road Dogg slid behind him and rolled him up for a near fall. Devine stumbled backwards and Petey blind tagged in off of his back. As Petey entered the ring, Devine asked him what his problem was. Petey responded that he just can’t get the job done. Petey turned his attention to Road Dogg, who rattled off a flurry of punches, ending with a big right hand, flooring Petey. Road Dogg made the cover on Petey, and Devine ran in to break it up. Devine lept in the air with an elbow, but Road Dogg moves, and Devine landed an elbow right on Petey Williams. Road Dogg threw Devine over the top rope, and Billy Gunn entered the ring and nailed the Fame-asser on Petey for the 3 count!

New Age Outlaws defeat Petey Williams & Johnny Devine by pinfall in 9:13. (72/67/77)
Post-Match: Devine slides in the ring and he and Petey are again having a shouting match with each other. Petey shoves Devine, and Devine responds with a slap to the face. All the while, The Outlaws are backing up the aisle, laughing at the misfortunes of the destructive Team Canada. Out of nowhere, they are floored by Austin Aries & Roderick Strong, the same team that cost them their match at Blaze of Glory. Aries and Strong assault the outlaws in the entryway, nailing stereo brainbusters on the concrete floor. The crowd gives a mixed, but generally negative response.

Styles: It looks like Petey Williams and Johnny Devine need some serious counseling, and it appears as though Aries and Strong have picked their next targets: The New Age Outlaws. We’ve just been informed that all SIX of these men will be entered in Battlebowl, so what a combustible situation that could be!


In-Ring Segment: The Land of the Rising Sun Comes Calling
Todd Grisham stands in the ring with a clipboard and a microphone.

Grisham: It is my honor at this time to introduce one of the top stars in Central States Wrestling and the World round, Masato Tanaka!

Tanaka comes to the ring, dressed casually. He steps in and shakes Todd Grisham’s hand.

Grisham: Now, ladies and gentlemen, and Mr. Tanaka, if you would turn your attention to the video screen, for a very special message from The Professor, Mike Tenay!

Tenay: Thank you Todd. My name is Mike Tenay, and I am coming to you right now via prerecorded message from Japan. As you may recently now, NWA: Japan had to make the unfortunate decision to suspend one of its athletes, Masahiro Chono, from the NWA: Japan Heavyweight Championship Tournament. Due to this, it is my honor to announce at this time, that NWA: Japan is extending this Open Invitation Contract to Masato Tanaka of NWA: Central States, to be an entrant into the tournament. Mr. Tanaka, you are obviously an established superstars in the States, as well as in Japan, and it would be our honor if you would join us in our tournament to crown the NWA Japan Heavyweight Champion. Mr. Grisham has the open contract for your first round match next week, just sign on the dotted line. Thank you for your time, and I look forward to seeing you in action next week!

With that, Grisham pulls a pen from his coat pocket and along with the clipboard, hands it to Tanaka. Tanaka flips up one page of the contract, but wait, Samoa Joe just slid into the ring behind Tanaka. I don’t think Tanaka even sees him. Tanaka puts the pen to the paper, but Joe grabs him from behind in a half-nelson, and takes him backwards with a half-nelson suplex, right on the head. Grisham quickly runs from the ring. Joe looks at Tanaka, prone on the mat, and turns his attention to the contract lying in the ring. Joe picks it up, flips the page, and SIGNS THE CONTRACT! He tosses it to Grisham, and is leaving the arena!

(74)

Styles: What the hell just happened here? Is Samoa Joe headed to Japan next week to compete in the NWA Japan Heavyweight Championship Tournament? Whatever happens, fans, I've just been informed that as a concession for the use of Tanaka, or Joe, or WHOEVER is headed over to Japan next week, NWA Central States will have it's own visitor from the Far East next week. Officially entered into Battlebowl will be one of the hottest young talents in Japan: CIMA!


CSW Tag Team Title Match: Mexicools © v Natural Born Thrillers
Joey Style says he has just been given an announcement that the winners of this match, the CSW Tag Team Champions will NOT be in Battlebowl but that the losing team will in fact be entered. The CSW Tag Team Champions head to the ring with their titles in hand. They look celebratory as usual, but very focused on tonight’s matchup. The Natural Born Thrillers are out next, and the 2 physical specimens make their way to the ring, looking like all business. The referee informs all 4 men that the CSW Tag Team Titles hang in the balance, and gives them their pre-match instructions. Great matchup from the get go with Mark Jindrak pairing off with Psicosis to open up. Psicosis used his speed on Jindrak, nailing an early headscissors takedown that sent Jindrak sliding under the bottom rope to the outside. O’Haire dropped down to re-convene with his partner. Jindrak slid back in and this time managed to overpower Psicosis and turn the match in the favor of the Thrillers. At the 5 minute mark, O’Haire and Super Crazy ended up in the ring, and Crazy attempted an Ocean Cyclone Bulldog. O’Haire was one step ahead, and used his momentum, swinging Crazy back and dropping him with a german suplex. O’Haire went for the cover, but Crazy kicked out, sending O’Haire rolling to the outside. Crazy nailed a dropkick on Jindrak, dropping him down by his partner on the floor. Psicosis then entered the ring, and the Mexicools bounced off the ropes and dove simultaneously over the top rope, crashing onto the Thrillers at ringside. The Mexicools rolled the Thrillers into the ring and ascended opposite turnbuckles. Super Crazy launched off with a Moonsault while Psicosis tried a legdrop, but both missed! All 4 men slowly got to their feet, and Mark Jindrak ducked a Psicosis crossbody, sending him sprawling to the outside. Jindrak then slighshotted himself over the top onto Psicosis. Super Crazy grabbed O’Haire for a brainbuster, but O’haire reversed it, taking Crazy up instead, and dropping him forward into a version of the Michinoku driver. Crazy barely kicked out. O’Haire’s nostrils were flaming as he grabbed Crazy and set him up for a powerbomb. He then powerbombed Crazy right into the turnbuckle, leaving Crazy prone on his hand and knee’s near the turnbuckle. Jindrak rifled Psicosis into the steel steps, as O’Haire bounced off the ropes. With a head full of steam he ran Crazy over with a Shining Wizard to the temple!! I think Crazy is knocked out. O’Haire rolls over on top of him. 1....2.....3! NEW Tag Champs!!

Thrillers defeat Mexicools by pinfall in 12:34 to become CSW Tag Team Champion. (84/73/96)
Post-Match: Mark Jindrak grabs the title belts and slides into the ring, handing one to O’Haire. O’Haire looks down at Crazy, unconscious on the mat. The Thrillers exchange a look and drop their titles as Jindrak goes to the outside and retrieves Psicosis. Back in the ring, Jindrak throws Psicosis off the ropes and nails him with a huge powerslam. He then holds Psicosis in place as O’Haire bounces off the ropes and flattens Psicosis with the Shining Wizard as well, sending him sprawling into the ropes.

Styles: The Natural Born Thrillers are the new CSW Tag Team Champions, and boy did they leave their mark here tonight on the Mexicools. Impressive win from these two, and Sean O’Haire has obviously picked up a few things in his time away from the wrestling ring. What a beast!


Video Package: Here Comes The Pain!
As the fans come down from the high of the last match, a video package flashes over the video screen.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wc8_4rSyNLI...=brock%20lesnar

The crowd roars to a frenzy, and the final words burn into the screen before fading away:

Brock Lesnar

In-Ring Segment: A humbled Champion.
CSW Champion Jeff Jarrett makes his way to the ring as the fans applaud him. Jarrett is smiling, yet seems slightly emotional still from his win.

Jarrett: You know. Over the last few years, hell, the last 10 years, I’ve been a real pain in alot of people’s asses. I was happy sure, cause I was on top. But I think there came a time, when I was just going through the motions. I forgot all about why I do what I do. I’d become so concerned with the backstage politics, with the games, with the spotlight, that I forgot all about what this is: wrestling. I’d forgotten what it was I loved about wrestling. And then in one simple moment, that all came back to me. When I won my first round matchup in the CSW Title Tournament, and I looked up at the big screen over there, and I saw that picture on the bracket...something clicked. Owen. Owen Hart emboddied everything good about this business, even though every time you got to see him on TV, he was being a sneaky little bastard and doing some devious act. But god he had fun doing it. And god did he love it. Seeing Owen’s picture, with that joy on his face, just made me long for it again. (The crowd breaks into a “Thank You Owen” chant) It made me think of Memphis. Wrestling with my daddy and with Eddie Gilbert and Jerry Lawler. It made me remember breaking in to the World Wrestling Federation. Even though I was J-E-Double F, I still loved every minute of it. And even WCW. People want you to think it was all a train wreck, but my time with Ric Flair and the 4 Horsemen was one of the best of my life. Why? Because I was doing what I loved to do. Sometime between May 23 1999, and May 23, 2006, that feeling left me. But boy am I glad I found it again. Triple H, something you said at Blaze of Glory really stuck with me. You told me that there would be no hard feelings, cause this is all about business. Well a year ago, I would’ve nodded my head, agreed with you, and probably gone out there and lost my match. But at Blaze of Glory, I discovered something: you’re wrong! This is about more than business. It’s about HEART! And now that I rediscovered that, I wish anyone on this roster the best of luck at prying this title away from me, because I will refuse to let go. Shelton Benjamin, I know you have heart. I saw it in the ring this past Tuesday. But right now I’m gonna go sit down with Joey Styles and Tazz, and see who I’m going to be defending this title against at Redemption. Good luck to you, men.

Main Event: #1 Contender for the CSW Championship at Redemption:
Triple H v Shelton Benjamin

Styles announces that the loser of this match will be entered into Battlebowl while the new #1 Contender, and CSW Championship Jeff Jarrett, along with the Tag Team Champions, will NOT be in Battlebowl. Triple H and Shelton Benjamin stare down in the middle of the ring. Having just recently fought for the highest of prizes, and now knowing they could have another shot at it, both men just stare emotionless into each other’s eyes. Benjamin broke the staredown with a hard right hand, which was immediately reciprocated by Triple H. Back and forth punches and action from these two, until Triple H scored with a high knee, knocking Benjamin to the mat. At the 5 minute mark, Triple H turned his attention to Shelton Benjamin’s knees, trying to cut down one of the best athletes in CSW today. He slapped on a spinning toe-hold, repeatedly tweaking Benjamin’s knee, trying to slow him down. Benjamin caught him with a small package out of nowhere, making Triple H rethink his strategy. Benjamin then took control, fighting back with a flurry of punches and nailing a huge splash in the corner at the 7 minute mark. Benjamin lifted himself to the middle rope, and came down with a bulldog on Triple H for another near fall. Benjamin headed to the outside of the ring, where he springboarded off the top rope, into the ring and nailed a dropkick on Triple H. Another near fall for Benjamin. He lifted Triple H, whipping him into the ropes. Benjamin ducked his head for a back bodydrop, but Triple H nailed a facesmash over his knee. Triple H charged at Benjamin, who grabbed him around the head. Look like the T-bone suplex! He hits it! 1......2......Almost a 3 count for Benjamin. He looks stunned. At the 9 minute mark now, as Benjamin waits for Triple H to get to his feet. Look like he is gonna try to finish him off. Kick to the stomach. Benjamin is going for the Pedigree on Triple H! But wait, Triple H backdrops Benjamin, but Shelton holds on, and Shelton’s shoulders are pinned to the mat with Triple H laying on top of him. 2 count, but Shelton bridges up, showing amazing athleticism, and spins under Triple H’s arms, wanting to hook a backslide. Benjamin misses Triple H’s arm, leaving himself exposed, where he takes a hard kick to the stomach, and a Pedigree. 1.....2.....3!

Triple H defeats Shelton Benjamin by pinfall in 10:05 to become the #1 Contender to the CSW Championship at Redemption. (77/74/75)
Post-Match: Triple H walks to the side of the ring with the announcer’s table and leans over the top rope, staring a hole into Jeff Jarrett and his CSW Championship. Jarrett stands up from his seated position and holds the title high in the air, smiling as the broadcast fades away.

Styles: Triple H is the #1 Contender! Triple H and Jeff Jarrett go one on one at Redemption for the CSW Championship, and Battlebowl begins right here next week to crown the first Kansas City Border Champion! We’re out of time! Join us next week, LIVE on Cyclone!
