[GCW] High Voltage (BotB Hype) - 12/19/04

Snabbit888Posted on 07/27/05 at 10:34:19

The countdown is at 60 minutes until the final pay-per-view and as it were, the final Global Championship Wrestling show of 2004, Best of the Best! The card is set, and with 9 huge matches on the card, I'm sure that 2004 is going to go out with a bang! Before we got to the pay-per-view though, we had the matter of the High Voltage hype machine. All of the matches would be preview via video packages as well as one big match pitting newly solo Rob Conway against Justin Credible.

* * * * *

[Before his match, Justin Credible is in the ring. He takes the microphone from ring announcer William Buck.]

JC: I would just like to let everyone know that I will be wrestling this match, and every other match for that matter, under protest until I am given my shot at the Cruiserweight Title like I rightly deserve. Thank you.

[The crowd boos Credible loudly. It's not GCW's fault that Credible is over the weight limit to get a title shot at Paul London. The boos turn into a moderate pop as Rob Conway's music starts. Conway gets into the ring and he has a cockier, almost smug way about him. He takes the microphone from Buck as well.]

RC: You shouldn't worry about the Cruiserweight Title or any protest. What you need to be worrying about is Rob Conway. I'm on my own now, and things are going to change around here. Credible, you're going to be the first ro realize firsthand that we're doing things a different way now... the Con-way!

[Conway hands the microphone back to Buck. It looks like he's sporting a little bit of a cocky edge now that Nick Dinsmore is gone.]

Match #1
Rob Conway vs. Justin Credible
Just as he did a week ago when he wrestled Paul London, Justin Credible didn't look focused. He is so distraught over not getting that shot at the Cruiserweight Title that he has let it completely alter what he does in the ring. Rob Conway, on the other hand, looked fantastic tonight. This was a definite upgrade for him over his match with Television champion Christopher Daniels as he had the "singles match" mentality. Conway kept himself one step ahead throughout most of this match, countering a Credible charge into the corner with the Tornado DDT and picking up the victory.

Rob Conway pinned Justin Credible with the Tornado DDT in 0:07:45.
Rating: *** 1/2

Rob Conway impressed a lot of people tonight with his performance, picking up his first singles win A.D. (After Dinsmore). It looks like Justin Credible is going to have to go back to pandering for a Cruiserweight Title shot now.

[We cut to a shot of space. All that can be seen is stars. A voiceover speaks.]

VO: In the past, there were big stars...

[Images of Bruno Sammartino, Ric Flair, Hulk Hogan, and Bret Hart flash across the screen.]

VO: In the present, there are big stars...

[Images of Brock Lesnar, Rey Mysterio Jr., Randy Orton, Chris Jericho, and World Heavyweight champion Kurt Angle flash across the screen.]

VO: But in the future... there will be no bigger star than...

[Slowly a picture of the man in question fades into the screen.]

VO: FRANKIE KAZARIAN... the Future is here...

[Slowly fade to black.]

Now, then...

World Heavyweight Title Match - Kurt Angle (c) vs. "Y2J" Chris Jericho

Much as I'd like Jericho to go over so WWL will have another representative in the circuit rankings...ain't gonna happen.  I'll say Jericho wins, but by DQ, so Angle retains.

Best of the Best Tournament - Semi-Finals - Randy Orton vs. Brock Lesnar

Lesnar wins when Orton can't figure out a way to make him fall over.

Best of the Best Tournament - Semi-Finals - "The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels vs. Sean O'Haire

Shawn Michaels uses the JESUS POWER~ to triumph.

Best of the Best Tournament - Finals - Brock Lesnar vs. Shawn Michaels

Tough one here.  I can't see Michaels beating Brock, but at the same time, I can't see Brock challenging Angle for the title, because they're both heels.  I'll pick Brock because I could see either him turning face or some sort of triple threat deal resulting from Jericho's DQ screwjob.

North American Title Match - "The Alpha Male" Monty Brown (c) vs. "Latino Heat" Eddie Guerrero vs. Eric Angle

Another tough one to pick, but I like the way Eric Angle has been handled so far, so I'll go with him to win the belt.  The Alpha Male will retain plenty of heat even without the title.

Television Title No Disqualification Match - Special Enforcer - Matt Morgan - "Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels (c) vs. Rey Mysterio Jr.

The deck may be stacked against Daniels, but he'll still retain, hopefully in some sort of capacity that leads to the appearance of "Him."

World Tag Team Title Match - "Primetime" Elix Skipper/Low-Ki (c) vs. The World's Greatest Tag Team

Skipper and Low Ki have to retain.  I could see the WGTT winning the belts, but not just yet.

Cruiserweight Title Match - Paul London (c) vs. Petey Williams

Williams is a tag team guy, and I've learned my lesson about betting against Paul London in GCW, so London retains.

"The Crippler" Chris Benoit vs. Steve "Who's Your Daddy?" Bradley

Benoit wins.  He has to.

I've already chipped in my predictions. Justin Credibles protest isn't going to change any of them, but he could use a combination of the Body Donnas and Simon Dean to trim him down to shape.
