** RINGSIDE COMMENTARY TEAM **
Gordon Solie & Matt Striker
The modern altar of liberty almost casts its shadow upon the majority of the readers. It is, therefore, the purpose, not so much to give history as to recall and keep green in memory all the patriots who died to give us one of the fairest lands the sun ever shone on, and the free and liberal government under which we enjoy it.
** (Battle of the Alamo recollection)
San Antonio Light newspaper
Sunday March 6, 1907 **
For BCCW this battle is just beginning. Enemy troops have been driven back, with only the hardest, battle-tested veterans in fantasy wrestling standing firm in their beliefs. The flag has been planted. Line in the sand drawn. Night of Champions III approaches. EVENT HORIZON IS COMING.

King of the Ratings
Gorgeous George the Human Orchid... and soon to be BCCW TV Champion once again!!
Presented by super-agent to the stars "OG Nature Boy" Buddy Rogers!
Vain opening ceremony that is (somewhat) surprisingly hosted by none other than "Nature Boy" Buddy Rogers himself! Not too surprising to those who follow the constant stream of touts/twitter/fb feeds (and heard about this potential collaboration). Super-agent to the stars Buddy Rogers argues that Gorgeous George should be awarded the BCCW TV title right NOW. Nobody boosts the ratings like Georgie Boy! He's a sure bet! But wait a minute, that just leaves one small problem of...
RHINO.
He too won his Interim tourney match and is factored into the finals against George at Night of Champions III. But you see, that's WHY Rogers & the Gorgeous One (w/ Gentleman Tornado) are celebrating now. Because Rhino is Buddy's guy and he's gonna do what's right for business! But this is news to Rhino, and the scene plays out a bit like Ted Dibiase *buying* Hercules Hernadez like a slave (circa 1988) from Bobby Heenan... IE: epic failure for the bad guys.
With the fans full support, Rhino declines his agents orders and completely spoils the party. True, Rogers has may have the almighty "ban stick", but a brazen Rhino still goes into business for himself. 3 successive GORES! (all more mighty than last) fold Rogers, Tornado & finally Georgie himself in half (golden Georgie pins went flying and he was speared right out of his entrance robe)! RHINO IS A SLAVE TO NO MAN!

** T.O.X.I.C. complications **
T.O.X.I.C. president Bully Ray and his troops (including evil bride Brooke Hogan) are in the midst of receiving some bad news... via certified letter: Bully Ray's title shot is not automatically given (as he assumed after his *victory* over John Cena last week)... instead it must be earned. Bully Ray is irate over the decree and so is Brooke Hogan... so mad, that she storms off to confront BCCW President Paul Bowser about right NOW! But instead she runs into TRISH STRATUS.
The two fiery ladies go back and forth and conflict seems imminent until T.O.X.I.C. shows up behind Brooke Hogan to leer lasciviously and threaten Trish with bodily harm. Enter JOHN CENA.
He lays the verbal smackdown on Bully Ray and his tainted series of victories - but Bully fires right back about Cena being finished and his friends and allies deserting him. Cena admits he took a loss, but will be damned if he ever gives up. He is so confident he can beat Bully Ray one on one, that John Cena challenges him to a match @ NoCIII... with Cena's World Title shot on the line! If Cena can't beat Bully Ray, he doesn't deserve to hold that honor anyway! It looks to be another gang beating brewing until finally President PAUL BOWSER enters the scene to quell the commotion!
Paul Bowser says as the rest of the fantasy wrestling world waits to hear about EVENT HORIZON, the planet of BCCW continues to spin on its axis. So he's giving Bully Ray & Cena both a chance to validate their claims - Mixed Tag Team match TONIGHT: John Cena & Trish Stratus... versus Bully Ray & Brooke Hogan!

Ominous Killer Kowalski segment to start. He is the tyrannical overlord, whipping into his slaves with the force of a thousand scourges. Tonight begins the Killer ascension and his team better step up with him or get left in the grisly trail... (Killer Kowalski-led stable at this point includes: Giant Bernard (aka Matt Bloom), Karl Anderson, Tommaso Ciampa, Alexxis Nevaeh & Misty Blue Simmes.)

KILLER KOWALSKI vs JOHN MORRISON
versus
Killer Kowalski wins with an over-the-shoulder backbreaker after folding JMo in half over a ladder (that JMo himself introduced to the match in an effort to impress the crowd). Post match, Kowalski unleashes a rambling growl and threatens to squeeze the life out of BCCW with his bare hands. Killer Kowalski = Money in the Bank!
Winner: KILLER KOWALSKI

REMEMBER THE ALAMO
The Living Legend Bruno Sammartino receives warm in-ring reception from the San Antonio fans. Very respectful and powerful promo from da Brune, honoring the legends that came before him while speaking out bravely against the deplorable actions of a select few (like Dean Ambrose). Bruno Sammartino seems to be on the verge of making another announcement RE: his own fantasy wrestling comeback and HoF career... when suddenly:
Enter AXIS of EVIL
They have some VERY bad words to say - about Bruno, BCCW, America and Texas in particular. They ominously surround the ring like a pack of wolves, ready to devour Bruno whole. When the cavalry arrives!!
Enter the Yellow Star of Texas DAVID VON ERICH!!
With a steel chair neutralizer,DVE and da Brune team up and go back-to-back to drive the invaders off! The crowd goes crazy! Bruno & David Von Erich stand their ground! The Axis has been driven back! But they will return... mark their words.
Meanwhile, David Von Erich is up for #1 contender nomination! Get your votes in now while there's still time! Lou Thesz' championship decision coming up later tonight!!

** INTERLUDE **
On February 23, 1836, the arrival of General Antonio López de Santa Anna's army outside San Antonio was a surprise. Undaunted, the Texians and Tejanos prepared to defend the Alamo together. The defenders held out for 13 days against Santa Anna's army. William B. Travis, the commander of the Alamo sent forth couriers carrying pleas for help to communities in Texas. On the eighth day of the siege, a band of 32 volunteers from Gonzales arrived, bringing the number of defenders to nearly two hundred. Legend holds that with the possibility of additional help fading, Colonel Travis drew a line on the ground and asked any man willing to stay and fight to step over — all except one did. As the defenders saw it, the Alamo was the key to the defense of Texas, and they were ready to give their lives rather than surrender their position to General Santa Anna....

MIKE AWESOME vs MIL MASCARAS vs TITUS O'NEIL
w/ versus
versus w
Triple Threat Ladder Rules. Mil Mascaras wins after countering an Awesome Bomb attempt into a gravity-defying leap directly *onto* the ladder - where he quickly scurried to the top and grabbed the contract! Half Mexican crowd pop is tremendous upon Mascaras' victory! (After a hellacious match that saw everybody from Rockstar Kaos (powerbombed over the top rope through a table by Mike Awesome) to BCCW 6-Man tag team champion Headhunterz being involved). Mascaras post match victory speech is in Spanglish, but he thanks God, blesses TX and wishes his nephew ADR luck to be #1 contender! Mil Mascaras = Money in the Bank!
Winner: MIL MASCARAS

Promo from Wild Red Berry & Damien Sandow - they are debuting their new legal adviser tonight and threaten to spill the beans RE: Event Horizon... but Commissioner William Muldoon arrives to remind them this is a wrestling show, not a courtroom! Therefore he's ordering them into a BCCW 6-Man tag team match tonight... against Ryback and #1 contender finalists RVD & Alberto Del Rio ©! Bad guys are outraged! But that match is TONIGHT!
Commissioner Muldoon makes the ruling!

MIZ TV
Typically abrasive MIZ TV interlude where the Miz sarcastically dismisses petty rival French Angel and makes light of the situation that took his valet Sammi Lane OUT of BCCW (see BCCW TV Episode #11). Of course, the MIZ's words eventually draw forth the French Angel himself - who is stewing for violent revenge. Angel is no longer the smiling babyface - he has been tormented by the lost of his muse Sammi Lane. Twice. But for Miz, it's all just a lure. He talks French Angel right into the next match (dirt sheet readers know Miz is still recovering from a minor shoulder injury)...
** CUT TO COMMERCIAL **
FRENCH ANGEL vs SCOTT HALL (debut!!)
versus
Scott Hall through the crowd (during break) and here we go. He gets the jump on Angel from behind and ruthlessly tosses him into guard rails and ring steps. The initial surprise is strong and Scott Hall (w/ Miz at ringside) quickly dismantles Angel - unleashes all his trademark spots - and finishes with a devastating RAZORS EDGE in the middle of the ring! 1!.. 2!.. 3! The Outsider is in the building! And the MIZ let him in!! What is going on here in BCCW? Post match, Scott Hall has little to say to MSD on the mic - but hints at a greater union on the horizon... the true threat comes from within. DTA, muthaphuckkers.
Winner: SCOTT HALL

RVD, RYBACK & ADR versus THE FIRM
** BCCW 6-Man Tag Team Match **
vs
Harvard Lawyer David Otunga is introduced as the mystery legal consultant - and the Firm is born. The good guys are the perfect dynamic, and start off dominating the match. But paranoia, jealousy and the desire to be best (with the air of uncertainty hanging around the #1 contender announcement like a cement necktie) eventually trip them up. Ryback starting to get muted "GOOOOOLDBERG" chants. Bad guys con their way back onto offense and much is made of Wild Red Berry's desire to strip ADR of his Middleweight championship. In the end though, the strength of justice is just too strong - the good guys storm back - and after ADR knocks out Berry with an enziguri while he stood on the apron - Ryback meathooks Sandow right into a 5-Star finish from RVD! 1!.. 2!.. 3! RVD gets the pin and the good guys win! The Firm vows revenge!
Winners: RVD, RYBACK & ADR

One Last Stand?
** BCCW HW championship **
Sheamus © vs Crusher Casey
In-ring contract signing (presided by BCCW VP Sheldon Goldberg) between Heavyweight champion Sheamus and #1 contender Crusher Casey is framed by deep mutual respect. Both men are pillars of their generations and cut from the same cultural cloth. For Steve Casey, he is the grizzled war veteran looking to test himself one last time against the young lion - to prove he's still a main-event caliber fantasy wrestling player. For Sheamus it is a chance to legitimize himself against an idol and prove he can do this own his own. The resolute son breaking off to blaze his own trail. Both men are eager to do battle at Night of Champions III (as is the live crowd). Sheamus signs... and then interruption:
Enter MARK HENRY.
World's Angriest Strongman lets the world know why he's hell on the mic with a scathing retort to Sheamus, Casey & BCCW VP Sheldon G collectively. In the end, Mark Henry actually assaults Sheldon G (shaking him violently by his lapels) and using the VP's body as a shield to provoke further mayhem. Mark Henry gets the jump on both Sheamus & Crusher Casey, using accouterments of the contract signing against them (splintering chairs over their heads, kicking over podiums and ultimately driving Crusher Casey THROUGH the wooden table with a WSS)!! With debris and fallen bodies around him, Mark Henry chuckles to himself - and signs the championship contract! Crowd boos as Henry poses over the bodies of both Sheamus/Crusher Casey with the BCCW HW belt. The bully continues to throw his weight around and cast an aura of fear! Is anybody bold or brave enough to stand up to his titanic threat?? And what of the championship contract - signed under false pretenses and duress?
** CUT TO COMMERCIAL **
** INTERLUDE **
The final assault came before daybreak on the morning of March 6, 1836, as columns of Mexican soldiers emerged from the predawn darkness and headed for the Alamo's walls. Cannon and small arms fire from inside the Alamo beat back several attacks. Regrouping, the Mexicans scaled the walls and rushed into the compound. Once inside, they turned a captured cannon on the Long Barrack and church, blasting open the barricaded doors. The desperate struggle continued until the defenders were overwhelmed. By sunrise, the battle had ended and Santa Anna entered the Alamo compound to survey the scene of his victory.

JOHN CENA & TRISH STRATUS vs BULLY RAY & BROOKE HOGAN
vs
Cena & Trish finally rebound with a strong victory, after the untrained Brooke Hogan proves fatally detrimental to her teams chances. She winds up getting springboard bulldogged by Trish for the pin. Main event match gave commentators plenty of time to speculate about Event Horizon, NoCIII and show video insets of Lou Thesz w/ Strangler Lewis watching intently from backstage monitors. It's all about shots fired and messages sent - and tonight, John Cena drew that line in the sand. He knows Thesz is in the building and goes above and beyond to bring the Xtreme butt-kicking to Bully Ray's doorstep (especially after putting up his World title shot against Bully Ray at the NoCIII PPV at the end of the month). Commentators say Cena has been pushed to the end of his chain, and has to do something dramatic to regain his momentum and run this game. Postmatch, Cena cuts a promo addressing Thesz and his attempts to exorcise Cena from the game forever. Cena refuses to quit and will never die. Tonight he proved Hustle, Loyalty, Respect still exists. At Night of Champions III, Cena will prove he can do it alone when he defeats the Bully Ray T.O.X.I.C. threat once and for all! Then Lou Thesz, I'm coming for you!!!
Winners: JOHN CENA & TRISH STRATUS
** golf clap, golf clap, golf clap... **
Enter WORLD champion Lou Thesz & Strangler Lewis!
They address Cena from the entrance ramp and applaud him for his daring bravado - putting his title shot on the line @ NoCIII. It saves Thesz & Lewis the legal hassle of having to strip him of it themselves. They upstage Cena by revealing the results of the fan voting poll (rubbing in the fact that Cena gets only boos from the same fans he tries to appease)...
The new #1 Contender as chosen by the great fans of BCCW is...
ROB VAN DAM!!
Crowd pops... RVD enters the ring to stand opposite Thesz/Lewis (and John Cena who is still lingering)... and teases the "handshake of mutual respect" with an obviously-phony Strangler Lewis. But instead, RVD leaves Lewis' hand dangling and points to himself with an "R! V! D!" chant! Dissed! Even Cena had to chuckle a bit. But not Thesz or Lewis. It just leaves Thesz the chance to sarcastically congratulate RVD and give him the symbolic *kiss of death*. Thesz & Lewis exit the ring while T.O.X.I.C. swarms in!! Bully Ray, D-Von, Aces & 8s, Mike Awesome, Tamina & Headhunterz jump RVD, Cena & Trish - leaving them all lying!
Show ends with the T.O.X.I.C. crew standing over the bodies of Cena, Stratus & RVD while Thesz & Strangler Lewis cackle with satisfaction on the entrance ramp like General Santa Anna surveying his carnage... raise the WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP in the air and we're done...
** FADE OUT **
** Epilogue **
While the facts surrounding the siege of the Alamo continue to be debated, there is no doubt about what the battle has come to symbolize. People worldwide continue to remember the Alamo as a heroic struggle against impossible odds — a place where men made the ultimate sacrifice for freedom. For this reason, the Alamo remains hallowed ground and the Shrine of Texas Liberty.

First they came for the communists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a communist.
Then they came for the socialists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a Jew.
Then they came for the Catholics,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a Catholic.
Then they came for me,
and there was no one left to speak for me.
