The big question is this...what will happen to the Head of the Class title now that it is in the possession of a member of the LIW locker room?

[Alex Wright interfered against Zach Gowen.]


Jonny Storm was a madman throughout the whole match and just manhandled Gowen in the process. Alex Wright came down to the ring at one point to obviously help his former New Europe stablemate by delivering a chairshot to Zach Gowen's back, giving Storm an opening to hit his Super Rewind Hurracanrana finisher. When Gowen kicked out of it at 2 and 9/10ths, this infuriated Storm even more. The remainder of the match was ALL Storm as he stayed on top of Gowen and punished him over and over again until Gowen passed out from the pain.

After the match, Alex Wright came in the ring to congratulate Storm. Storm just looked at Wright and as soon as Wright turned his back, Storm WHACKED him with a vicious chairshot to the back of the head.

Ladies and gentlemen, Jonny Storm has DEFINITELY SNAPPED!

Johnny Ace had been waiting several weeks for this match to happen and so were all of us as we wanted to see who would make it out of the Round Robin for Top Contender with the title shot.

It looks like the series is tied 3 ways so not only do we not know who got the shot but we also dont know if there is even a title currently in Hard Knox for there to be a shot at.

An amazing 8 man scramble. Mafia was on a roll eliminating Stamboli and then Spikyjim but BJ Whitmer came in and took Mafia out big time out of nowhere.

From there, Whitmer picked his fights and was able to let other people do the eliminating and then he would come over to finish them off.

Whitmer has certainly skyrocketed up the charts with this win.

The next match is our main event and what a doozy it is as LIW puts Ron Harris in the ring against HKW roster member and Harris' brother, `Heavy D' Don Harris.


They lock up.
Ron Harris gives him a backbreaker, but Don Harris doesn't budge.
Ron Harris pushes Don Harris.
Don Harris falls backwards.
Ron Harris covers Don Harris.
Nick Patrick counts: One, two, three.
[MAIN EVENT]: No-Time-Limit-Match:
Ron Harris pinned Don Harris after a push-off in 0:00:14.
Rating: -3/4*


WTF was that all about?

Don Harris faked a fall and landed on his back. Ron Harris got on top of him and got the 3 count.

HKW officials came in the ring immediately and berated Don Harris for taking the easy way out. They then told him he was FIRED. This provoked Don Harris to grab a HKW shirt from a fan on the outside and toss it on the ground before spitting on it and leaving right through the front doors with his brother right behind him.

Card rating: ***

Round Robin for a future title shot (Final Standings)
=====================================================
1. Johnny Ace                                               5 ( 1: 1: 0)
    Chris Benoit                                             5 ( 1: 1: 0)
    Christopher Daniels                                 5 ( 1: 1: 0)

Ace/Benoit/Daniels will all be in a 4 way match with the champ in the near future once we figure out what to do about our title being in another promotion's hands.

What is with Ernest Miller?? First a 4 star in LIW, now a 5 star? This shouldn't be possible.. unless Despair has like 200 in work rate... if this happened to me I would have fallen of my chair. Twice.

Orton winning the title.. should be interesting.. I hope you are planning on hiring him, or maybe you can send your guys to LIW to fight him there. Either way, this is something Critic should use in his Orton promos.

Harris pushes his brother? Did this really happen in TNM? I've never seen anything like it. You fired yet another Harris? Haha.. they must really hate you.

Cool that you and Critic are in the same month.. this way it's easier to cooperate on these inter-promotional matches.

Haha - i'm as little a fan of Miller as the next person but for some reason, he had a lucky streak of opponents who carry him to decent matches.

Hmm - not sure if Critic would enjoy booking my guys constantly every time I need a title defense so chances are i'll be sending feelers out to LIW to see if Orton would consider bringing the gold back. I COULD always go without a singles title for awhile - not sure how successful of a run that would go.

I booked the simplest finish to the Harris vs Harris match and saw push-off so i went with it and just made up the falling backwards and cover part. I definitely needed to get rid of Don since his bro got shafted at the last inter-promo and i wanted to finish the job this time around.

Yea - i definitely pushed myself to get to the proper moment in time - unfortunately, it also means there is a bit of a waiting period at times when i finish all my rules and have to wait for some more from Critic.
