Atlantic Grand Prix Wrestling presents
PRIMETIME LIVE
Saturday, October 26, 2013
Live from the Mile One Centre in St. John’s, Newfoundland & Labrador

AGPW is live and in primetime and only on ASN.

“Yer Fall” by Hey Rosetta! (of St. John’s, Newfoundland & Labrador), from the album Seeds (2011)

Ed Whalen: Good evening, Atlantic Canada! Welcome to PRIMETIME LIVE! I’m Ed Whalen and alongside me is Jeremy Borash. We’re at ringside tonight to call the action, tonight, on this very special 3-hour programme. Coming into tonight, there were only six matches announced, which is not much for a 3-hour event. However, as I understand it, one additional match was added to the card earlier this afternoon. What are the details of that one, Jeremy?

Jeremy Borash: Just added to the show, this afternoon, is a 4-team elimination match for a shot at the North American Tag Team Championship Titles on the debut episode of Atlantic Grand Prix Wrestling’s Dynamite Saturday Night, on November 9. We’ll see The Hurricane & Rosey versus Magnus & Antonio Cesaro versus Lance Cade & Trevor Murdoch versus The Cuban Assassins!

Ed Whalen: That will be quite the opportunity for whichever team comes out on top in that one. In addition to that new booking, as previously mentioned, there are six other matches announced for tonight’s show, plus Rowdy Roddy Piper will be hosting the Piper’s Pit.

Jeremy Borash: Something big always seems to happen on the Piper’s Pit and tonight’s Piper’s Pit will be no exception. The Blue Blazer requested a guest spot on the Piper’s Pit to reveal his true identity. Who could he be? We’ll find out later, tonight!

Ed Whalen: And, in other matches, we’ll see former Team Canada teammates, Petey Williams and Johnny Devine face off against one another and Chris Hero is looking to make a name for himself by trying to get a win over Chris Candido.

Jeremy Borash: And then, we have the bigger matches of the evening, like the Tornado Tag Team Match between the team of “Killer” Karl Krupp and “The Acadian Giant” Kurrgan and the team of the Junkyard Dog and Bo Dallas.

Ed Whalen: And let’s not forget a match that has a lot riding on it when Chief Morley steps into the ring to face Test. If Test wins, he’ll be released from his Atlantic Grand Prix Wrestling contract. If Chief Morley wins, Test will continue to wrestle as a disgruntled employee and might be forced to wrestle at the bottom of the card with low pay days. However, that’s purely speculation on my part.

Jeremy Borash: Then, we’ll have “Marvelous” Marc Mero face “Macho Man” Randy Savage in a match that Mero requested. Mero believes that Savage cost him the International Heavyweight Championship at last month’s PRIMETIME LIVE and he’s looking to get revenge in this one.

Ed Whalen: And finally, in what is sure to be a ring-a-ding-dong-dandy, our big main event will feature a fatal fourway match for the International Heavyweight Championship. It’ll be the defending champion, “The Iceman” Dean Malenko versus Leo Burke versus Dino Bravo versus Mad Dog Vachon. The first wrestler to score a pinfall or force one of his opponents to submit will walk away with the title.

Jeremy Borash: That means that Malenko doesn’t even have to be pinned or quit to lose his title!

Ed Whalen: That’s right. Of course, one other interesting thing to take note of is that Dino Bravo and Mad Dog Vachon are the current holders of the North American Tag Team Titles. How will their presence in this match affect the outcome? Will they work together as a team or will the desire to win the biggest prize in Atlantic Grand Prix Wrestling cause their partnership to fall apart?

Jeremy Borash: I don’t know, but I highly doubt that Frenchy Martin would let his family get torn apart over the International Heavyweight Championship, no matter how badly he wants to get his hands on it.

Ed Whalen: Fans, there’s a lot of excitement in the air here at the Mile One Centre in St. John’s, Newfoundland and our night is only just beginning. Let’s now turn things over to Marc Blondin, who is standing by with Rowdy Roddy Piper.

Marc Blondin opens this interview by cutting to the chase and asking the Hot Rod what we can expect from tonight’s edition of the Piper’s Pit with his guest the Blue Blazer. Piper responds that we can expect the Blue Blazer to remove his mask and reveal his true identity to the world. Blondin asks him if he believes that the Blue Blazer is trustworthy enough to take him at his word. Piper replies that he believes the Blue Blazer can be trusted to follow through, otherwise the Blue Blazer will be made to keep his word because no one plays the Hot Rod for a fool. Rowdy Roddy Piper hosts the Piper’s Pit later in tonight’s show!

SoCal Val is with Maryse Ouellet to ask her about her team’s chances of winning tonight’s tag team elimination match and gaining the shot at the North America Tag Team Champions on the inaugural broadcast of Dynamite Saturday Night. Maryse believes that her team of Magnus and Antonio Cesaro are the most athletically gifted and all-around talented wrestlers in the match and she feels that they are the team to beat. The odds are in their favour. She says that it is no small wonder that the combination of their natural athleticism and wrestling abilities and her managerial skills have taken them straight to the top of the tag team ranks. She expects a win tonight because no other team can compete. Then, Val asks her why she ordered her team to stand down from Yvon “Le Lion” Robert, claiming that it was highly uncharacteristic of her managerial style. Maryse tells Val that she has a lot of respect for Monsieur Robert and that there would be nothing to be gained from getting on his bad side. Val asks her what she means and Maryse says that there is nothing more to say about it.

Marc Blondin is backstage with Yvon “Le Lion” Robert. Blondin notices that he’s dressed in his ring gear and appears to be ready for competition despite not having a match tonight. He asks him why that is. Robert responds that he’s always ready to jump into battle and that he fully expects to have wrestled and won a match by the end of the evening. Blondin asks him if that means that he’s making an open challenge to the rest of Atlantic Grand Prix Wrestling, to which he responds that it isn’t necessarily an open challenge, rather it is more of a gut feeling he has that something good is on the horizon for him, and there’s nothing better than competing in and winning a wrestling match.

*Commercial Break 1*

VS.

Petey Williams vs. Johnny Devine

This is a battle of former Team Canada stablemates. With Team Canada appearing to have dissolved, thanks to the actions of Johnny Devine, they look to determine who the better man is in this cruiserweight contest. The match is fast with some very good back-and-forth action. Devine cheats to gain the upper hand and goes to work on Williams with a prolonged advantage. However, Williams mounts a hot comeback. He appears to be on his way to victory until Devine sweeps Williams’ legs out from under him during the set up for the Canadian Destroyer. Devine turns Williams over into a Boston crab, but Williams manages to crawl to the ropes. Upon getting up, Williams sees Devine charging at him, so he ducks his head and tries for a body drop over the ropes. However, Devine gets his hands on the top rope and guides himself down for a safe landing on the ring apron. Then, he executes a springboard bulldog takedown. He covers for a 2-count. He picks up Williams and bodyslams him in the corner. Devine tries for his Love Gun split-legged moonsault, but Williams gets his knees up. Both men get up and Williams executes a tilt-a-whirl Russian legsweep. He covers Devine for a 2-count. Then, he picks up Devine and again sets up for the Canadian Destroyer, but gets a back body drop. Devine picks up Williams and sets up for the Devine Intervention piledriver. He lifts Williams, but can’t finish the move, as Williams gets a pair of heel kicks to Devine’s face to break free. Then, Williams ducks a clothesline attempt and connects with a savate kick. After that, he picks up Devine and finally gives him the Canadian Destroyer. He pins him for the 3-count and the victory.

Official Decision: Petey Williams wins by pinfall

*Commercial Break 2*

w/ VS.

Chris Candido w/ Sunny vs. Chris Hero

One month ago, Chris Candido and Chris Hero teamed together to face The Cuban Assassins. During that match, Hero appeared to mistakenly hit Candido, but then left him to be devoured by the wolves, so to speak. When asked why he did it, Hero said that he never wanted to be friends or partners with Candido and was using him to make a name for himself. As a result, we ended up with this match, which is Hero’s chance to make a name for himself. The match gets out to a slow start. Both men exchange holds and show off their chain wrestling abilities. Candido is more crisp and polished at the art of chain wrestling and so he finally comes out on top in the long, early exchange. He dominates the offense for much of the match. Hero doesn’t look like he’ll doing anything but make a poor name for himself with his lack of offense. Candido makes some pinfall attempts and although Hero kicks out of them, it is starting to look like only a matter of time before he registers a 3-count. With another close 2-count, Candido decides to finish him with a high impact maneuver. He puts Hero on the top turnbuckle. As he climbs up, Hero suddenly strikes him with a hard elbow smash to the side of the head. It stuns Candido. Then, Hero throws him a few punches and shoves him to the mat. He gives him and leaps off the top rope, landing on Candido with the Hero Stomp! He goes for the pin, but Candido kicks out. They get up and trade blows. The complexion of the match starts turning in Hero’s favour as he starts to find some success with his offensive. As he’s building momentum, he goes for an Irish whip. Candido reverses it and Hero collides with the referee. Hero gets up and ducks a running clothesline attempt and then pulls Candido in for a ripcord rolling elbow smash. With the referee down, he goes to the outside to grab a chair from the timekeeper. Sunny runs over and has a tug of war with him over the chair. Hero manages to push her away, causing her to fall down on her behind. Hero climbs onto the apron. Candido gets up and Hero tosses him the chair. Hero goes for a springboard dropkick, but Candido moves out of the way. Still with the chair in his hands, he hits Hero, then tosses it away. Unfortunately, by that time, the referee had gotten up to see the chair shot and calls for the bell to end the match. Candido is caught off guard by the call, turns around and tries to protest to the referee. Sunny also gets involved in the argument, as Hero slides out of the ring and raises his hand in victory.

Official Decision: Chris Hero wins by disqualification

Fatal Fourway Elimination
#1 Contender Tag Team Match
Lance Cade & Trevor Murdoch vs. The Hurricane & Rosey w / Mighty Molly vs. The Cuban Assassins vs. Magnus & Antonio Cesaro w/ Maryse Ouellet

The winners of this match will face the Montréal Mafia for the North American Tag Team Titles in two weeks at the very first episode of Dynamite Saturday Night. Here, we have four very capable teams, all with contrasting styles and personalities. Cade & Murdoch are a team that appears to be falling apart at the seams. Despite all of their recent troubles and the growing rift between the two, they’re still near the top of the tag team ranks and competing for a shot at the gold, here. The Hurricane and Rosey are the only babyfaces in the contest. They are a pair of superheroes with fun personalities. The Cuban Assassins are a team of lawless brawlers who only win matches when they haven’t gotten themselves disqualified. And, Magnus and Cesaro are the international hot shots that Maryse Ouellet believes are the future superstars of this sport. Here, we get an entertaining bout with all teams getting some offense in. We get through ten minutes of the contest within a single elimination until, finally, the Cuban Assassins exit the match when things order inside of the ring breaks down and a giant brawl ensues. Whereas Cuban Assassin Jr. was one of the legal men at the time that chaos took over, and joined his father to do a 2-on-1 beatdown of Rosey in entrance aisle, the referee counted him out. With the Assassins eliminated, legal man The Hurricane, looks to the outside of the ring where Cade and Magnus are fighting each other and decides to go for a high risk maneuver to the outside. He runs to the far ropes, but before he can make it back to the other side to take them out, he receives a vicious spear from Murdoch, who was playing possum in the corner. He covers for the 3-count to eliminate The Hurricane and Rosey.

The dysfunctional rednecks remain in the match, much to the surprise of many in attendance. Murdoch and Cesaro have a stiff exchange of directed blows to the head and chops to the chest. Murdoch tries to whip Cesaro into the corner and follow in, but Cesaro shows off his athleticism with a big reverse leap over Murdoch, who slams into the turnbuckle, chest first. He waits for Murdoch to turn around and charges in to connect with a running European uppercut. Cesaro takes him out of the corner with a gutwrench suplex and pins. He gets a 2-count before Cade enters the ring and pulls him off his partner. Cesaro gets up and grabs him by the ear as he is walking away. He gets Cade to turn around and drops him with a European uppercut. Cesaro kicks Cade out to the floor. Then, he tags out. Magnus comes in and takes the fight to Murdoch, but Murdoch is able to reverse a whip attempt into a lifting sitout spinebuster. Both men are down and as the referee nears then end of his 10-count, they both tag out. Cade and Cesaro enter the ring and get right into into. Cade strings together a series of moves on Cesaro. He looks to finish him off with a superkick, but Magnus, who is on the ring apron, grabs him by the arm and pulls him out of the way. The kick knocks out the referee. Magnus tags in. He comes in a delivers some chops to Cade. He whips him into the corner and tries to follow up with a move, but takes a boot to the face that turns him around. Murdoch has entered the ring and charges at him. Magnus moves and Murdoch runs right into Cade with the corner shoulderblock! Cade crumples over. Magnus takes Murdoch off of his feet with a dropkick. He picks up Murdoch, but gets a jawbreaker. Murdoch checks on his tag team partner and helps him up, but gets slugged in the face with a hard left hand. Murdoch gets up and fights back. This union appear to have finally split at the worst possible moment. Cade clotheslines Murdoch to the outside. He leaves the ring and grabs a steal chair. Murdoch gets up and sees him coming, so he heads into the ring and out the other side. Cade stands inside the ring with a steal chair, telling his partner to come on for a fight. Murdoch grabs a chair and slowly enters the ring. We have a Mexican standoff, with Cesaro and Magnus looking on, just waiting for things to unfold and be declared the winners as soon as the referee is revived.

At that moment, Cade and Murdoch start to swing their chairs, but turn right around and take out both of their opponents! Maryse is on the outside losing her cool. Cade and Murdoch lay into Magnus and Cesaro with multiple chair shots, which receives a very positive response from the crowd. They get rid of the chairs and dump Magnus to the floor. Cade wakes the referee, then he and Murdoch give Cesaro their double team finisher, Sweet ‘n Sour! Cade pins for the 3-count and the win! Cade & Murdoch are the #1 contenders!

Official Decision: Lance Cade & Trevor Murdoch win by pinfall

*Commercial Break 4*

Sensational Sherri Martel comes to the ring. She said that she’d be here tonight to challenge Taylor Wilde, who has yet to respond to her challenge. Sherri gets on the microphone and tells Wilde to come out here, that is, if she has the guts to face the Sensational One.

Taylor comes out and obliges. She’s ready for a match and both women pick right up from where they left off the last time they wrestled.

VS.

Taylor Wilde vs. Sensational Sherri

This is an all-out slugfest to begin the match. Both women are taking shots at each other, but then Wilde tries to whip Sherri, who reverses it and sets up for a body drop. Wilde counters it into a sunset flip for a 1-count. They get up and Wilde ducks a clothesline attempt and takes Sherri down with a crucifix pin for a 1-count. Wilde keeps up with her early pinfall attempts, requiring Sherri to constantly kick out. This tactic is really starting to frustrate Sherri. Wilde goes for another pinfall attempt when she climbs the turnbuckle and leaps onto Sherri’s shoulders. She tries to go for a victory roll, but Sherri counters it into an inverted powerbomb! Sherri flips Wilde over and covers, but she kicks out. Sherri sends Wilde into the corner and goes for a monkey flip, but Wilde lands on her feet, then dropkicks Sherri back into the turnbuckle. Wilde then hits Sherri with a running back spring elbow. She then takes to the air with a springboard arm drag takedown and then gives Sherri a bridging northern lights suplex. Sherri kicks out and rolls out to the floor. Sherri seems overwhelmed. She didn’t expect to get this kind of a challenge from Wilde. Sherri starts to leave, but Wilde exits the ring and comes after her. She brings Sherri back towards ringside. As they approach ringside, Sherri gauges Wilde’s eyes and then whips him into the side of the ring apron! Sherri gives Wilde a few kicks while she is down and then enters the ring. The referee begins to countout Wilde, but Sherri interrupts the count with an attempt to leave the ring. The referee and Sherri are arguing. With his back to Wilde, who is getting up, a pair of NINJAs – Portia Perez and Nicole Matthews – hop the guardrail, one from each side. They attack Wilde and give her the Funky Cold Medina (a superkick – German suplex combo). They roll Wilde into the ring before leaving ringside. Sherri takes advantage. She immediately pins Wilde for the 3-count and the victory!

Official Decision: Sensational Sherri Martel wins by pinfall

*Commercial Break 5*

VS.

Tornado Tag Team Match
“Killer” Karl Krupp & “The Acadian Giant” Kurrgan vs. Junkyard Dog & Bo Dallas

On the last PRIMETIME LIVE, “Killer” Karl Krupp emerged victorious over Junkyard Dog in a singles match, thanks to the surprise arrival of “The Acadian Giant” Kurrgan, who helped Krupp gain the victory. Krupp won the match using his Iron Claw, but it took him about half a minute to get JYD to submit, which is significantly longer than 10 seconds, which is the maximum amount of time Krupp claims he needs to get an opponent to submit. JYD has infuriated Krupp further by claiming that he should pay him the $50 000 prize that he offers for lasting over 10 seconds in the hold as part of his Iron Claw Challenge. Now, here we are, with another giant brawl on our hands, as all four men can be in the ring at the same time for as long as they want. It’s a pier 6 brawl to begin the match. At various points in the match, everyone ends up fighting on the outside. Moreover, there are double teams inside and out of the ring, as well. Things begin to get near the end when double team efforts to put Dallas down are broken up by JYD, who fights off both men long enough for Dallas to recover and join in depositing Krupp outside of the ring with a double clothesline that sends him over the top rope. Then, they shift their focus on knocking the Acadian Giant off of his feet. Both men give him clotheslines that he appears to absorb. Dallas tries to fight him with punches and kicks, but the Acadian Giant just clubs him down. Then, he gets knocked off of his feet with a chop block by JYD, who then sits down on him and punches away at him. Krupp comes back into the ring, but Dallas is all over him. Dallas sends him from one corner to the other with an Irish whip. He runs in and takes him out of the corner with a monkey flip. Dallas climbs the turnbuckle and goes for an elbow drop, but Krupp moves. When he gets up, Krupp catches Dallas in his Iron Claws as he is rising to his feet. Meanwhile, JYD has just delivered enough headbutts to get Kurrgan out of the ring. He attacks Krupp before he can force Dallas to submit. JYD tries to whip Krupp, but he reverses it. He goes for a big boot, but JYD catches his foot, then takes him down with a clothesline. JYD is ready to go for the Thump. However, he gets attacked from behind by Kurrgan. Dallas tries to help JYD, but Kurrgan grabs him in a chokehold and gives him a chokeslam. JYD backs Kurrgan into the ropes with some punches and then sends him over the top with a big running clothesline. Kurrgan flips over the ropes and lands on his feet. He trips up JYD, pulls him out of the ring and throws him into the steps. Having taken him out of the play, Krupp locks the Iron Claw onto Dallas a second time, causing him to submit. Krupp and Kurrgan celebrate their victory by double teaming JYD on the outside and beating him around the ring. Krupp gives him the Iron Claw for what seems like forever. JYD appears to be unconscious. Dallas tries to come to the aid of JYD, but then he gets busted open in a brutal 2-on-1 beating that culminates in Dallas being taken up onto the ring apron and being thrown through the broadcast team’s table with a jackknife powerbomb!

Official Decision: “Killer” Karl Krupp & “The Acadian Giant” Kurrgan win by submission

*Commercial Break 6*

Frenchy Martin and Yoshihiro Tajiri enter the ring. With microphone in hand, Martin cuts a promo with scathing remarks for both “The Iceman” Dean Malenko and Leo Burke. He claims that Leo Burke has no right to be in tonight’s International Heavyweight Championship match because he hasn’t proven that he’s capable of beating Dean Malenko. As far as he’s concerned, Burke isn’t in the same league as Dino Bravo or Mad Dog Vachon, and that was proven last week when he took the fall for his team in the tag team match that the Montréal Mafia won. Moreover, he promises that Burke will suffer for preventing both of his family members from winning the top prize in Atlantic Grand Prix Wrestling. Next, he rips on Dean Malenko for being the poorest example of champion in the entire Mash-Up Wrestling Universe. His title reign has been extended far too long thanks to outside interference, claiming that while he wears the title around his waist, he only does so with a lot of help from others. Malenko is easily beatable and both Dino Bravo and Mad Dog Vachon have shown that to be true in the past month. Tonight, he predicts that Dean Malenko will lose the International Heavyweight Champion and then goes one step further in guaranteeing that the title will find a new home for itself in Montréal.

Moving on, he thinks it is a travesty that Yoshihiro Tajiri hasn’t been booked for tonight’s event. Tajiri is ready to compete. He wants to celebrate an historic evening for the Montréal Mafia by beginning it all with a big victory for Tajiri against anyone stupid enough to want a piece of the Japanese Buzzsaw.

Out to accept the challenge is Yvon “Le Lion” Robert. At the start of the night, he said he expected to wrestle and win a match tonight. This appears to be his opportunity to make that happen. And so, he have an impromptu match-up on our hands.

Yvon “Le Lion” Robert vs. Yoshihiro Tajiri w/ Frenchy Martin

Yvon “Le Lion” Robert is a legendary Québecois grapple who is making a fast rise through the ranks of AGPW. In under a month, he’s come into AGPW and dominated his competition. Tajiri represents his toughest opponent to day. In fact, Tajiri is a formidable opponent who represents quite a challenge for him. After the bell, they circle the ring a bit before locking up. Tajiri wins the initial lock up by getting Robert into a standing side headlock. Robert backs into the ropes and breaks it by sending him off and running. Robert sets up for a back body drop, but Tajiri leaps over and takes him down into a sunset flip, but only gets a 1-count. They get up and Tajiri goes for a spin kick, but Robert dodges it and then manages to take Tajiri down into his rolling arm trap headscissors from out of nowhere. Tajiri taps out almost instantly. In what can only be described as a shocker, Yvon “Le Lion” Robert defeats Tajiri in under a minute!

Official Decision: Yvon “Le Lion” Robert wins by submission

We cut to the backstage where we see footage of Chief Morley getting loose and warming up for his match later in the evening against Test. Cyrus, The Network’s representative arrives on the scene to ask Morley if he is both mentally and physically prepared for this match. Morley confirms that he is. Cyrus is happy to hear it. Just as he did last week, he reiterates the importance of a victory for him in this match. It is infinitely important that AGPW retains the services of Test because The Network has a market strategy in place that will help AGPW to grow and gain a permanent and significant presence in Central Canada and Test will be an important part of that strategy. Morley tells Cyrus that he doesn’t care about The Network’s market strategy vis-à-vis Test. He’s in this to win the match, not because he’s dying to keep Test on the roster, but because he knows that keeping Test on the roster is the best way to make his life a living hell. Cyrus tells Morley that is apparent that he and The Network don’t see eye-to-eye on the subject of why it is important to keep Test in AGPW and says that they’ll talk about The Network’s future plans for Test another time. In the meantime, Cyrus tells Morley to get the job done before walking away.

w/ VS.

“Marvelous” Marc Mero w/ Candice Michelle vs. “Macho Man” Randy Savage w/ Miss Elizabeth

This match is happening after the “Macho Man” Randy Savage accepted a challenge from “Marvelous” Marc Mero, who challenged him to a match because he blames Mero for causing him to lose his International Heavyweight Championship match at last month’s PRIMETIME LIVE. Mero seeks revenge here, but it would appear as though he’s bit off a bit more than he can chew. Mero’s had great success in AGPW to this point, but he has never had to step into the ring against anyone quite like the legendary Macho Man. The opening minutes of the match are quite telling, with the Macho Man getting his offense in small bursts as Mero keeps leaving the ring and stalling to kill his momentum and then trying to different results by locking up again, but always failing to get the different results he seeks. Mero seems to believe that the Macho Man is not a formidable opponent, which is why he keeps thinking that going back to the well is going to eventually favour him, but it never does. Mero’s personal trainer, Candice Michelle, eventually calls on Mero for a strategy session. She wants to help him regroup. However, the Macho Man isn’t interested in waiting around. He exists the ring and crashes the party with a running elbow to the back of Mero’s head. Savage picks up Mero and slams his head down into the ring steps, then press slams him over the guardrail. He picks up Mero and whips him hard into the guardrail. Savage rolls into the ring and back out to break the referee’s count. He continues the ringside attack for a few moments, but then takes Mero back into the ring. Savage climbs the turnbuckle and waits for Mero to get up. He goes for the flying axehandle smash, but Mero counters with a dropkick! Mero is slow to get up, but he gets to his feet first and turns the tide of the match in his favour with his own charging elbow smash to Savage’s forehead. He picks up Savage and gives him a bodyslam. He goes to the top rope and hits the Merosault! He goes for the first pinfall attempt of the match, but Savage kicks out easily. Mero kicks him a couple of times and then slaps on a camel clutch. Savage won’t quit, so Mero eventually relinquishes the hold and goes back to stomping away at the Macho Man. Mero brings him to his feet and whips him across the ring into the turnbuckle. He follows in, but takes a boot to the face and then a running clothesline. Mero gets up and Savage serves up some knife-edge chops. He gives Mero a raised wristlock. Mero thumbs him in the eye and reverses it to an armbar. Macho Man drops to the mat, quips up and reverses it into his own armbar. Mero mimics him move for move to reverse the armbar back into his favour, then yanks Savage’s hair to drop him to the mat and puts the boots to his shoulder. Mero does some nifty chain wrestling to sequence his armbar into a crucifix pin, but Savage kicks out. Mero grabs him and goes for a suplex, but Savage blocks and counters with his own. When they both get up, they trade blows. Mero, again, thumbs him in the eye and then goes for a small package pin, but Savage kicks out. They get up and Mero buries a knee deep into Savage’s abdomen. Mero takes him down with a side Russian legsweep and then climbs the turnbuckle. He goes for the Marvelocity, but Savage rolls out of the way. When they get up, Savage smothers Mero with his offense. He gives him some running clotheslines, a bodyslam, flying axehandle smashes, an atomic drop and a dropkick. Savage goes for his first fall of the contest, but Mero kicks out. Savage sends him into the corner and follows in with a running shoulderblock. He climbs up and delivers 10 punches with the crowd counting along and then he gives Mero a vertical suplex. Savage climbs the turnbuckle and signals for the end, but Candice Michelle gets up and grabs his foot. He ties to shake her off, but she has a strong grip. It causes him to bend down as he starts to lose his balance. The referee comes over and breaks it up. However, Mero is up and comes over and throws Savage to the mat. Mero lifts Savage onto his shoulders to go for the TKO, but he slides down from behind and executes a reverse DDT. Savage goes back to the top rope and, this time, flies off, nailing the flying elbow drop! He covers for the 3-count and the victory!

Official Decision: “Macho Man” Randy Savage wins by pinfall

*Commercial Break 8*

It’s time for the Piper’s Pit with its host, Rowdy Roddy Piper!

Rowdy Roddy Piper welcomes us all to the Piper’s Pit. He tells us that he is excited for this big opportunity to unmask and reveal the true identity of his guest for this evening, the mysterious man known only as The Blue Blazer. Before having his guest join him, Piper recounts the Blue Blazer’s short history in AGPW to date. All of his history seems to revolve around confrontations involving Lance Storm, which Piper speculates must mean that the Blue Blazer is someone who has a personal relationship of some sort with Storm, a friend, acquaintance, or possible family member. Finishing his retelling of the Blue Blazer’s backstory and speculating about his possible identity, Piper says that it is now time to welcome the man of the hour so that he can release us from the suspense he’s held us in since the day he arrived in AGPW.

The Blue Blazer’s theme music plays, but he does not emerge. Suddenly, SoCal Val appears with a note and she tells Piper that she was asked to him the note. Piper reads it. The note says that the Blue Blazer has cancelled his appearance on the Piper’s Pit because it would not be just to allow a criminal to reap the benefit of getting a scoop on the biggest news story of the year. Piper is incredibly angry. He says that he’s no dummy and understands that he’s just been accused of being a criminal, which he says is a load of bunk. He goes on to threaten the Blue Blazer by saying that he now has made an enemy in the Hot Rod. He demands to know what crimes he’s being accused of and suspects that these are groundless accusations much like the ones leveled against Lance Storm. Then, he warns the ‘caped coward’ that the Hot Rod will make sure that justice is served for committing the crime of duping Rowdy Roddy Piper.

Just then, Lance Storm emerges from the arena entrance and he brings with him The Blue Blazer, who is completely tied up. Lance takes him over to the Piper’s Pit set and asks Piper if he can be serious for a moment because he has something very important to say – he’s found the Blue Blazer. Piper asks Storm where he found him. He tells him that he found him in his dressing room, apparently planning a sneak attack, but he foiled it and has brought him out here to be unmasked. Finally, the moment we’ve all been waiting for. Piper and Storm both grab a side of the mask and at the count of three, they remove it.

It’s Tyson Kidd! A look of surprise falls upon Piper and Storm. Piper says that he knew it was someone that Storm would know, as they are both fellow Calgarians. Piper rips the tape off of Kidd’s mouth and demands he explain himself. Kidd insists that he’s not the Blue Blazer, that he doesn’t know how he ended up in the Blue Blazer costume and that he doesn’t know how he ended up in Lance Storm’s dressing room. He pleads with them to believe him and swears that he is innocent, but they don’t believe him. They decide to take him to the ring to teach him a lesson. As they enter the ring and get ready to obliterate Kidd, the lights go out.

Suicide descends upon the ring and begins to fight both Piper and Storm on his own. They begin to fight back, but out from under the ring comes the Suicide lookalike, Manik. He joins in on the attack of Piper and Storm. Suicide and Manik are both as quick as lightning. Neither Piper nor Storm were ready to deal with the likes of these guys and so, together, Suicide and Manik tear them apart. Once they’ve been beaten down into the mat, the arena lights dim down once more and a spotlight descends upon the set of the Piper’s Pit. Sitting there is the Blue Blazer. He grabs a microphone and proclaims that he and his disciples (alluding to Suicide and Manik) are shutting down the Piper’s Pit, permanently! Then, he says that Tyson Kidd and Rowdy Roddy Piper have joined Lance Storm on criminal’s row and lists Kidd’s charges as theft and Piper’s charges as fraud. The Blue Blazer finishes by saying that all of three of these criminals will soon be banished from AGPW unless they admit to their crimes and gives them two weeks to come clean. What will Piper, Storm and Kidd do? Tune in to Dynamite Saturday Night on November 9 to find out!

VS.

No Disqualification Match
Chief Morley vs. Test

This is the big blow off match to one of the most heated and intense rivalries that has existed in the short 6-month history of AGPW. Chief Morley and Test have been at odds since almost day one. Test doesn’t want to be in AGPW and he has finally found an opportunity to get out. He came here intent on raising his stock so that he could get a big pay day with one of the other larger territories in the mash-up universe. However, he got on the bad side of management for no showing several dates in the first month, insisting that the competition was not up to par. As a consequence, Chief Morley has punished Test by seemingly doing everything he can to prevent Test from getting an opportunity to pad his CV with AGPW gold.

This is the Chief of Staff’s first match in AGPW. He comes to the ring and awaits Test, who arrives and takes no time to attack the Chief as soon as he enters the ring. Test pummels him and keeps up a very fast pace with each of his power moves. The big man is intent on using Morley’s lack of ring work since joining AGPW to his advantage by staying all over him and not allowing him to get his legs. Test looks like he’s going to make short work of Morley until he tries to go for his running big boot. He makes the attempt way too early. Morley side steps him, then takes the big man down with a side belly-to-belly suplex. Morley begins to mount a comeback until he decides to go to the turnbuckle. Test gets up and pulls on the top rope. Then, he climbs the turnbuckle and takes the Chief of Staff to the mat with a superplex. Test goes for the first pinfall attempt of the match, but Morley kicks out of it. Test takes Morley to the ropes and sits one of his large thighs on the back of Morley’s neck, choking him out on the middle rope. The referee is helpless to break it up because it is a no disqualification match. Test picks up Morley, throws him into the corner and continues to choke him, this time with one of his big feet. Test makes it half way through 10 corner punches when Morley lifts him and gives him an inverted atomic drop and then a double underhook suplex. Then, Morley decides to send Test to the outside and continues his attack from there. Morley starts to really do a number to Test, but he eventually comes back and makes it an interesting brawl by giving Morley a body drop over the guardrail. Test and Morley brawl into the crowd. They make it back to ringside, where tries to slam Morley’s face into the ringsteps, only to have him block it, elbow him and slam his face into the steps. Morley grabs a chair from the timekeeper and cracks it over Test’s back, three times! Morley clears off the new wooden table that Ed Whalen and Jeremy Borash have been using since just after the tornado tag match and puts Test on it. He climbs the turnbuckle and performs a frog splash onto Test! After a long delay, Morley picks Test up from the rubble and takes him into the ring. He covers, but Test just gets his shoulder up. Morley picks him up and gives him suplex and then climbs the turnbuckle. Then, a masked man hops the guardrail and hits Morley’s ankle with a hammer, just as he stands upright on the top turnbuckle! Morley falls over, into the ring and clutches his ankle. Test gets up and goes to pick up Morley, but he pulls him into a small package. 1…2… kick out! Morley is having a hard time getting up. Test attacks. He tries for a pumphandle slam, but Morley slides through behind him and executes a release German suplex. Morley crawls over to make the cover. 1…2… it’s broken up by a hammer shot to the skull! The masked man picks up Morley and gives him the Skull Crushing Finale! He leans over Morley’s fallen body and taunts the Chief of Staff as Test gets to his feet. The masked man picks up Morley and whips him into the running big boot of Test! He pins for the three count and the win.

Following the match, the masked man removes his mask to reveal that it is The Miz! The Insiders have infiltrated AGPW and helped Test win his release from the company! Where does the scourge of The Insiders end?

Official Decision: Test wins by pinfall

VS. VS. VS.

Fatal Fourway Match for the International Heavyweight Championship
“The Iceman” Dean Malenko {c} vs. Leo Burke vs. Dino Bravo vs. Mad Dog Vachon

The first contestant to score a pinfall or submission will win this match and the title. It is also announced by the time keeper that there is a 30-minute time limit. Now, unfortunately for “The Iceman”, the rules of this match mean that he doesn’t have to be pinned or forced to submit to lose his championship. He has quite a task here, as Leo Burke has been in the title picture for several months now. He’s been hunting the title, but so too have others. This month, it has been the Montréal Mafia that has stepped up to the plate with an impressive campaign to try to gain the title and control all of the gold in AGPW. Both Dino Bravo and Mad Dog Vachon nearly took the title away from Malenko, albeit through nefarious means, only to end up winning their matches by disqualification. They were forced to put their North American Tag Team Titles on the line in order to earn births in this match. They were successful in defending their titles against Malenko and Burke, and so here we are with four men vying for the biggest prize in AGPW.

Frenchy Martin, the manager and spokesperson of both Bravo and Vachon, is at ringside, but he takes a seat at the commentary table to join Ed Whalen and Jeremy Borash. When asked why he isn’t circling the ring, he says that he believes that Bravo and Vachon will execute their task to perfection and trusts that they don’t need his help at this time. He spends a lot of time talking up the Montréal Mafia and promises that the title will be controlled by his family at the end of the night. When pressed about the possibility of dissension and infighting over who will win the match, he guarantees that the Mafia is disciplined and it will not self-destruct, not now that the goal is so close at hand.

Our match has been going on for quite some time now and, early on, at least, it has taken the appearance of a tornado tag match, with Bravo and Vachon opposing Malenko and Burke. When the tag team champions get an opportunity to dump Burke out the ring, they decide to focus in their attack solely on the reigning champion, Malenko. They double team for a long stretch, until Burke re-enters the ring and breaks up the double team assault by taking Vachon out of the ring and brawling with him around ringside. Bravo continues to take the fight to Malenko on the inside of the ring, but decides to abandon the champion after giving him six consecutive gutwrench suplexes! Instead of going for the cover, he opts to exit the ring and come to the aid of his tag team partner, Vachon. Burke has Vachon on the ground and he is putting the boots to him, but that comes to an end when Bravo lifts him up and executes an elevated side belly-to-back suplex on the floor! Bravo picks up Burke and whips him hard into the guardrail. He walks over to continue the assault, but gets taken down from the side by a diving Dean Malenko, who crashes into Bravo and sends him crashing into the guardrail. Vachon goes to grab Malenko, but he gives him a big European uppercut and then smacks his face off of the ring apron. Malenko rolls Vachon into the ring. He climbs up to the top turnbuckle and goes for a big frog splash, but misses. Vachon grabs the champion and sets up for a piledriver, but he counters with back body drop. Malenko runs to the ropes, ducks a clothesline, and takes Vachon down with a float-over DDT. He goes for the first pinfall attempt of the match, over 15-minutes into the contest. Vachon manages to kick out of it. Malenko decides to start picking Vachon apart, slowly and methodically. Meanwhile, back on the outside, Bravo and Burke are half way up the entrance aisle and slugging it out. Burke’s been busted open above the right eye. Burke eventually gets the better of Bravo and leaves him laid out in the entrance aisle. He returns to the ring, where he finds The Iceman has just given Vachon a gutwrench powerbomb and is going for the pin. Burke breaks it up with a stomp to the lower spine. Malenko gets up and Burke throws him some knife-edge chops. He goes for a whip, but Malenko reverses it and executes a tilt-a-whirl backbreaker. He tries to cover him, but Burke kicks out. Malenko focuses his attack on Burke now, with Vachon rolling to the outside for a breather. Malenko executes several moves in a row and then attempts to put Burke in the Texas Cloverleaf, however Burke fights it off and kicks Malenko away. Burke gets up and catches Malenko, who is charging at him, and executes an overhead belly-to-belly suplex! Both men are down. The referee counts to eight before they reach their feet and start trading chops. Then, Bravo returns to the fight by running right through the middle of their chop war and hitting them both with clotheslines. He stomps away at both of them. Bravo picks up Malenko and gives him a bodyslam and a standing elbow drop. He grabs Burke, but gets pulled into a small package for a 2-count. Bravo and Burke trade punches until Vachon attacks Burke from behind and a brief 2-on-1 beat down takes place. They change their focus to Malenko, but he fights them both off with dropkicks and sends them both packing from the ring. Burke gets up in the corner. Malenko charges at him and gets a boot to the face. Burke takes Malenko down with a bulldog and covers for a close 2-count. He picks up Malenko and gives him a fisherman’s suplex. The pin is broken up by Vachon. He grabs Burke and executes a piledriver! However, he doesn’t try to cover him. He grabs Malenko and sets up for the same move, but Malenko gets a double legsweep and puts Vachon in the Texas Cloverleaf until Bravo clubs him in the back of the head with a lariat. Bravo puts Malenko on his shoulders and gives him an airplane spin. When he finally stops spinning, he gets taken out with a chopblock to the back of the knee by Burke, who then tries to cover him for the win, but Malenko finds enough energy to break it up.

Burke, Bravo and Malenko are all down. It is only Vachon who is standing and he waits to see who gets up first before making his next move. Everyone gets up and an all-out brawl breaks out.Neither Vachon nor Bravo has made an attempt to win the match, opting instead just to do damage to their opponents and try to prevent them from ending the match. Although everyone is slowing down, Malenko and Burke are trying to pull out all of the stops to finish this match. Whalen and Borash press Martin to tell them why his men are ill-concerned about winning, but he refuses to answer them. Then, Burke tosses Vachon from the ring and Malenko does the same to Bravo. Burke tosses his man a few moments earlier, giving him the opportunity to sneak up from behind and slap on the sleeperhold. At this point, Martin leaves the table and goes to his nearest man, Bravo, to try to get him up. Malenko manages to break up the sleeperhold with a jawjacker as his counter. When both men get up, they trade blows. Burke tries to kick Malenko. He catches Burke’s foot and takes him down with a hard leg drag and then locks on the Texas cloverleaf. Burke is trying to hold out and reaches for the ropes. Vachon is on the outside and not getting up. Martin is frantically trying to get Bravo up, but he’s having a hard time of it.

Then the referee calls for the bell. Malenko thinks he’s won the match and grabs the title to celebrate. Martin and Bravo enter the ring in protest. Eventually, Vachon joins in and so too does Burke, who argues that he didn’t quit. Whalen and Borash speculate that maybe time had expired. With the ring flooded with officials and everyone involved in the match, our broadcast cuts to its final commercial break.

*Commercial Break 11*

Return from commercial, it is announced that there was a 30-minute time limit and that the time had expired in the match, thus resulting in the match ending in a draw. As a consequence, it is announced that Dean Malenko retains the International Heavyweight Championship.

The Montréal Mafia don’t appear to be upset with the official ruling, but Leo Burke is visibly upset and he can be heard arguing that the match should continue because he was not informed about a time limit beforehand. Frenchy Martin backs him up, saying that no time limit was given prior to the match. It is at this time that Cyrus comes down to the ring and says that while this broadcast is not yet on his Network, as the Network’s representative, it is his duty to let everyone know that The Network has invested heavily in AGPW, thus granting it a say in what happens to the product. He goes on to say that the Network recognizes that a time limit draw is an unsatisfactory way to end the match and because he knows that they fans want to see a clear winner, he is ordering the match to continue!

Malenko, being the fighting champion that he is, says fine and he’s ready. Burke is happy with that announcement and wants to get back into action ASAP. On the other hand, Frenchy Martin says that Dino Bravo and Mad Dog Vachon are spent and do not wish to continue. However, he argues that the Montréal Mafia have a right to be represented in the match because neither of its men were defeated. Cyrus says that it a reasonable request and grants it. Suddenly, Malenko and Burke aren’t happy. And who should emerge from behind the curtain…

… Yvon “Le Lion” Robert. He enters the ring and immediately attacks the champion. Burke attacks him, but Bravo and Vachon attack him and take him out of the ring. Cyrus orders the referee to call for the bell and to resume the match and he does so. Robert picks apart Malenko for a little more than 2-minutes before locking on the arm trap headscissors. Malenko refuses to quit, although he’s screaming in pain, and before long the headscissors causes him to pass out. Malenko is non-responsive, so the match is ended. The winner and new AGPW International Heavyweight Champion is Yvon “Le Lion” Robert. Frenchy Martin, Dino Bravo, Mad Dog Vachon and Yoshihiro Tajiri join him in the ring to celebrate as some fans litter the ring with trash. The Montréal Mafia appears to have a new family member. Its godfather has emerged. He is legendary. He is Montréal. And he is the International Heavyweight Champion!

W... T... F. I thought the WWE vs BCCW fiasco in Toronto was big news. But what happened in St. John’s, Newfoundland & Labrador ranks right up there with Montreal. Le Lion joins the Montreal Mafia??? SAY IT AIN'T SO!! All these crazy late-breaking developments don't detract from the fact you ran another stacked card. I loved the Randy Savage & tornado tag matches the most. You had me at "Good evening Atlantic Canada!" so you know I'm a bit of a groupie, but I nearly spit Red Bull through my nose when I got to the Test/Morley finish. The muthaphuckkin MIZ!? Another Insider screwjob?? How far do the Illuminati tentacles run?? But seriously, great job & I love to see so many carefully orchestrated cross-over moments. That's some of the stuff I think makes Mash-Up Wrestling the best. I love AGPW and the Le Lion win puts this show over the top for me. 5 freakin star show man, and I promise those faceplates are coming ASAP. Mash on my brother!

peace,

Ehh. I found the finish to be a little TOO convoluted & wonky for my tastes. Just took A LOT of explaining to get ya there - almost too much reaching to hand us what ya ultimately did. But hey. It's worth the stretch. Big fan of the turnaround ya gave Robert here. I could tell you had something planned with the guy from Day One - he just came in with such a big splash & some sizzling hype behind him. Seemed he was perched & waiting to pounce from the get-go, so I know some thought went into this revelation.

I originally figured he'd be tied to Maryse, going all the way back to your last episode of TV. She even seems to flirt with the idea of an association with Le Lion again here. But his background & history make him a fine fit as the Mafia's crown jewel, just the same. So yeah. I like what ya did here. Just felt like the explanation took a lot of crazy maneuvering to get you there. Might've been better holding off until a later date to set the pieces in place, but I don't know what all went into pulling the trigger on it here. So, for what it was, kudos. Well-played conclusion to the situation, for the most part.

The Miz?! The Insiders?! Wow. Did NOT see that coming. Hmm. I wonder if there's any plans to link them up with Test for the long haul, or if this was more about a one-off appearance to flex their influence throughout the Mash-Up landscape just a bit more. Either way, Test freeing himself from the shackles of the promotion is a pretty BIG deal. If he just kicks rocks & bails, then that's too easy. So there's BOUND to be more to the story here. I mean, he could technically hold this over the Network's head and blackmail or bargain with Cyrus to get something served to him on a silver platter. Hmm.

Savage and Mero amounted to about as much as I expected. Fun, simple formula there. Didn't really care for the finish though. Found it a bit bizarre to see Savage bust out a Reverse DDT, even strictly as a reactionary counteraction move. His setup for the Flying Elbow is usually a bit simpler, and it's just one of those REALLY MINOR details - but hey. It caught my attention as being a little thing that didn't seem too true to life.

But enough nitpicking! The show-stealing moment for me came with the Piper's Pit segment. Big thumbs up to ALL OF THAT stuff, man. Suicide & Manik launching onto the scene as a doppelganger duo of lackeys beneath the Blazer is a nice freaking development, man. I like it. The entire exchange there drew the battle lines for the story to continue to play out - Piper, Kidd, and Storm facing off against the Blazer and his justice brigade.

Great to see Sensational Sherri notch another win on her record here. I'm an avid fan of Ms. Martel for sure. Plus, I'm a bit of a mark for Portia - so ya just know I was stoked to see her intro'd to assist Sherri here. Your ladies division is stacking up nicely now.

Cool turn of events in that elimination tag bout, too. Cade & Murdoch have been a tractor-truck full of fun as the dysfunctional teammates, but I would've popped to see 'em unite and just clobber Cesaro & Magnus here. Good crowd-pleasing spot to go home on for that match.

Call me crazy, but it always seems uncharacteristic to see Tammy doing any kind of babyface performance. I just never could buy her in that light. To me, the original Sunny days = her absolute best. Heck, she made the Smoking freaking Gunns into passable heels.

[Slade]

I feel like your take on the angle with the major title change is a valid criticism. There was some crazy maneuvering going on because I think that maybe I should have brought Yvon Robert onto the roster sooner to build him up better and make his sudden appearance at the end more impactful. I wanted it to be a surprise, but I still wanted it to make sense. In any case, I feel like if the story needed more time invested in it, I should have started it sooner rather than holding off until a later date. My reasoning should mostly be explained on the debut of Dynamite Saturday Night. I just felt that the title change had to happen now when put into the larger context of the changes that are happening to the company as a whole. And, yeah, I maybe didn't get to the end game as smoothly as I hoped I would. However, hopefully, you'll find that the crazy maneuvering will pay off in the long run with the stories that will be told following these events.

I know that you've already learned that Test isn't just kicking rocks around. Plus, Test's reemergence in BCCW and with 6-man tag gold already around his waist, wasn't the only fallout as a result of the outcome of that match. You'll have to see the debut of Dynamite Saturday Night to see the other big developments.

I'm glad you liked the kind of completely over-the-top story I told to advance the Storm/Blazer story and expand it to throw some other players into the mix. I think this is a really good and fun mid-card story with a lot of life left in it. I hope you'll enjoy finding out where it goes next.

In any case, I appreciate the constructive criticism. Truthfully, I felt a bit unsure of how some of what I did tonight would be received. However, I couldn't think of any better ways of achieving my end goals, so I did what I had to do to get AGPW to where I felt it needed to go and put it on the path that I want it to go down in the future. The hope here is that what is coming on the horizon will have made tonight's storytelling choices worth it.
