Back to the Skull for another night of hot wrestling action, and while
I'm not totally certain I think this is now officially a record for most
consecutive weeks of shows for the former ACW. Guess the problem was the
UWF connection all along, amazing how stable MBC: Alamo City has been
since it started. Then again, it's not even two months in.

At any rate, the tag title tournament continues on tonight with the semi-
finals. The appearance of the Sons of Skullhead was a big shock to a lot
of fans, many of whom are familiar with them from Bastard Stampede.

The night started with an appearance by the General Manager, Tara
"Sunburst" Marshall, who came out to the ring and announced that
tonight's main event would see Southwest Heavyweight Champion Danny
Holden taking on Quinn Murray in a title match. The crowd booed both
men, which drew a bit of a smirk from Tara.

Stephen Edge vs. Ellis Russo
----------------------------
Up first on tonight's slate was a singles match between one half of the
Russo Brothers and longtime local star Stephen Edge. Ellis was seconded
by his brother and partner Tony, who was still smarting after a loss to
Danny Holden in 30 seconds last week. A fairly basic match between these
two, with Edge getting the upper hand in a brawl in the early going. A
few looks of jealousy between the brothers as Ellis gained control after
sending Edge to the corner post, and on the outside Tony rolled his eyes
after being told "this is how you do it, little brother". When he tried
to hit a delayed suplex Stephen escaped and with a boot to the stomach
hit a DDT for the victory.

WINNER: Stephen Edge

After the match, Ellis was pulled to the outside by Tony and the brothers
argued as they headed to the back. Before the next match started, Rachel
Carlisle came out and took a seat at ringside.

#1 Contenders Match
Twilight vs. Angela "Skullbuster" Harrison vs. Babe McKidd
----------------------------------------------------------
Announced as a match where the winner would receive a shot at Arcee's
Southwest Women's Title next week, her step-sister the Skullbuster came
down to the ring next and embraced her. Babe McKidd came out second,
with the masked unknown quantity Twilight the third to enter.

A feeling out period started the match, as none of the competitors took a
direct advantage and in the confusion McKidd scored the first pin attempt
off a sunset flip, only to be dropped with a facebuster by Twilight.
From there the match heated up, as Twilight and Harrison traded shots and
power attacks. As they got into a battle of knife-edge chops they fell
prey to a slingshot double dropkick from Babe, and a pair of standing
moonsaults gave her control of the match. Her aerial risks looked like
they would pay off as she hit a top rope legdrop onto Twilight later on,
and only a diving elbow by Skullbuster broke the count. With her step-
sister cheering her on from ringside, Angela set Babe up for her jumping
piledriver and looked to drive her into the mat... when Twilight managed
to get up and kick Harrison square in the face with a Yakuza kick. Her
eyes rolled back in her head as Twilight grabbed the dazed McKidd and
executed an inverted powerslam on top of Skullbuster. Her two opponents
piled on top of one another, Twilight jumped up and delivered a double
foot stomp square between Babe's shoulderblades. Peeling her off of
Harrison, Twilight threw her to the outside and covered the semi-
conscious Skullbuster for the victory.

WINNER: Twilight

Not satisfied with just winning, the masked wrestler grabbed Harrison and
started to set her up for a piledriver of her own, but Arcee jumped into
the ring and forced Twilight to leave. Making the "I want a belt" motion
by her waist, Twilight exited to a chorus of boos. A look of concern on
the face of the champion as she helped her sister up as well as the still
unmoving McKidd on the outside. The three fan favorites all left
ringside together, to the cheers of the audience.

"Big Time" Bradley Rose vs. "Overkill" Joey Malone
--------------------------------------------------
A battle of two men the crowd liked came up next, as Malone came out to
the ring wearing the white hoodie he managed to pull off of Sugar last
week and the crowd exploded with laughter. He threw it into the audience
as the massive Brad Rose entered, and before the match started the two
wrestlers shook hands.

The story came down to a classic David versus Goliath situation, with the
larger Rose pounding Malone down much of the way and the agility of the
native Texan keeping him competitive. Twice off of powerbomb attempts
Joey escaped with huracanranas, the second one sending Rose all the way
over the top rope to the outside. It was at this point that Stan "The
Man" Fox showed up, eager to gain revenge over Malone humiliating his
valet. He stayed in the aisleway, waiting until Joey hurled himself over
the top rope with a twisting plancha that knocked into Rose and put both
of them on the floor. At this point Stan sprang into action, pummeling
Joey and scooping him up for a bodyslam onto the cement floor. The
referee immediately disqualified Rose, who took offense to Fox's methods.
As Stan set up for a DVD on the floor Rose belted him in the stomach and
saved Malone, hurled Fox into the ringpost and split his forehead open.
Fox limped off, not before pointing at Rose menacingly. The match result
was announced to the crowd, and the two combatants left separately.

WINNER: By disqualification, "Overkill" Joey Malone

Out came the Hoff next, who did introductions for his team the Glamour
Boys. He again called them the uncrowned Southwest Tag Team Champions,
but "soon enough that problem will be rectified."

Southwest Tag Title Tournament - Semi-Finals
Glamour Boys vs Jamie Kidd/Jesse Roucka
---------------------------------------
The team of Roucka and Kidd ran out to the ring and beseiged the Glamour
Boys right away, not even letting them take off their matching robes
before tossing Taylor over the ropes to the outside. Hunter was caught
with a double superkick, but scrambled to the floor before he could be
pinned.

The speed of the young tag team gave them several opportunities early,
nearly upsetting the Boys with a vertical suplex into a flying bodypress
cover. Hoff was able to help turn the tide by distracting the referee
and allowing Taylor to grab the legal opponent Roucka and snap his neck
off the top rope as he jumped to the floor. A flying leg lariat by
Hunter followed up, and the Glamour Boys made some quick tags of their
own to keep the pressure up including their trademark superkick into a
Samoan Drop. Kidd stopped a pin on his partner, and led the crowd in
cheering Roucka on as the plucky aerialist staggered to the corner after
surprising Hunter with an enzuigiri. Kidd came in on fire and delivered
rapid elbows to Hunter, then threw him to the ropes. He didn't notice
Taylor make a blind tag in, and when Kidd went for a brainbuster suplex
Taylor caught him with a high kneelift to propel him into the corner.
When Jamie staggered out, Taylor hit him with the Big City Breaker, a
flipout turnbuckle neckbreaker for the three count.

WINNERS: The Glamour Boys

As a dejected Kidd and Roucka left the ring, The Hoff crowed about his
team moving on. As they posed, the lights dropped out and moments later
the Glamour Boys were not alone in the ring as the Sons of Skullhead
stood behind them. The Hoff bailed as his men were easily tossed to the
outside, and the trio seethed with rage as the crowd cheered loudly!

Southwest Tag Title Tournament - Semi-Finals
The Sons of Skullhead vs. Mark II
---------------------------------
With the SoS already in the ring, Mark II entered to a loud pop of their
own. Mark Workman began the match against Darklin Skullhead and found
little success against the 6'8 power brawler. Each time he tried to use
his technical skills a shove or an elbow would knock him to the mat. He
brought his partner in but Carney had much the same results. It wasn't
until he ducked a clothesline and used a dropkick to the knee to bring
Darklin to his knees that Mark II was able to get a rhythm going against
their larger opponents. Workman tried to hit the Imp Plant on one of the
twin masked men, but was instead flung into the corner. Despite their
best efforts, it wasn't meant to be as the match ended when Carney was
caught by Krow Skullhead and put down with a jumping piledriver for the
victory.

WINNERS: The Sons Of Skullhead

Post-match, a weary Carney and Workman shook hands with Darklin and Krow
and raised their hands in a sign of good sportsmanship. Chants of "S-O-
S! S-O-S!" rose from the crowd as the Sons of Skullhead left the ring
area.

Psycho Driver Tag Team Titles
The New Throbbing Mattress Kittens[c] vs. Estrogen
--------------------------------------------------
The crowd wasn't sure who to back in this match, as the Cordovas proudly
carried the MBC Psycho Driver Tag Titles to the ring only to have Griffen
and Braddock jump out of the crowd and surprise them with an attack. The
precise technical skills of Griffen gave the challengers the advantage
early on, keeping Luna in the ring a long time and repeatedly preventing
her from tagging out to Aurora with shots to the head. Jayde went for
the Spirit Breaker but was rudely interrupted by a kick to the skull by
the illegal Cordova, weakening her and allowing Luna to drop Griffen with
a reverse neckbreaker. Braddock rushed into the ring to again stop the
tag, but when she grabbed Luna's leg the crafty twin somersaulted and
flung Kyra with her own momentum right into an elbow strike. The tag led
to Aurora going aerial, and the Cordovas picked up the win a short time
later with a partner-assisted spear tackle.

WINNERS: The New TMK

The fight continued post-match, with security having to come out and pull
the TMK and Estrogen apart.

For the Southwest Heavyweight Title
Danny Holden vs. Quinn Murray
-----------------------------
Holden, all business, walked to the ring with the title and made sure to
tell Murray to get a good luck, but he'd never get to hold it. A slap by
the challenger led to a scuffle to begin things off, both men landing
some hard punches. Holden switched to a leg-based offense, opting to
kick the hell out of Quinn instead. Gore stood impassively at ringside,
not making a move for much of the match as the advantage went back and
forth. A Hollywood Side Kick rocked Holden and looked like it might
allow Murray to hit the Fatal Frame for the title, but digging deep into
his wrestling knowledge Holden planted him with a powerbomb in the middle
of the ring. A near fall by the champion was thwarted as Murray grabbed
the nearby ropes.

Late in the match as Murray struggled to avoid the Armbar Submission he
swung Holden around and knocked the referee down inadvertently. A
bulldog put the champion down, and Murray hollered at Gore to "grab a
chair!" Cornelius did as he was told, slid into the ring and prepared to
bash Danny's skull in. But a moment's hesitation by the barefoot
wrestler was all the opening Holden needed, as he reversed Murray's grip
and threw the challenger right into the chair instead, and as the referee
struggled back to his feet slapped on the Armbar. Gore was forced to
take his chair and exit, though he didn't seem to be as remorseful as one
would expect as Murray struggled for a minute, ultimately having to tap
out to the champ.

WINNER: Danny Holden

As Holden collected his title belt, a furious Murray got back to his feet
and shoved Cornelius. Gore scowled and looked like he wanted to hit
Murray, but then turned and walked away without raising a fist. Murray
grabbed the microphone before he left, and told the crowd that next week
he'd finally make "that silent bastard" tell him what side he was really
on. At this point the lights began to strobe the ring and like last
week, the mysterious music started up again and lasted a little longer,
long enough that the lyric "You Can't Stop It, You Can't Stop It" was
heard. Murray seemed confused and irritated by the music, storming out
to end the show.
