(INTRO)

(Marco Epstein and Dark Menace are at the announce position near the ring.)

Epstein: Welcome to another episode of 1 Wrestling Nation. I’m Marco Epstein, joined by the incomparable Dark Menace.

DM: Greetings and salutations.

Epstein: We are one week away from Summer Bash and matches are still being signed. As a matter of fact, Lola Patterson is in the ring waiting to interview the challenger for Mercedes Martinez’s RMPW Women’s Title. Lola?

(Lola Patterson is in the ring with Beverly Shade.)

Patterson: Thanks, Marco. I’m here with Beverly Shade. Beverly, Mercedes Martinez has no doubt been a dominant champion. The question that really remains is can she be beaten?

Shade: Of course she can, and I am more than willing to be the one to do it.

Patterson: What makes you think you can succeed where so many else have failed.

Shade: (Pointing to her arm) The hammer has taken out plenty of foes and I plan to make the champ the next in line.

Patterson: Very well. Good luck.

(Patterson exits the ring as the referee enters and the match begins.)

Beverly Shade vs. Michelle Jackson
Shade showed she was in prime shape, beating Jackson with THE HAMMER.

(Pre-recorded comments from Disciples of Chaos (Vampiro & Sinn Bohdi) w/ Father James Mitchell)

(Vampiro and Bohdi flank Mitchell. Vampiro stands brooding as Bohdi stands, flinching ever so slightly.)
Mitchell: My name is Father James Mitchell and I have put together a team that draws power from a dark hold, making them a challenge like none other.

Bohdi: Ladies and gentlemen, can I have your attention please. Bring your attention to me as I show you something you have never seen before. It is the darkness of Sinn Bohdi … hahahaha!



(Epstein and Menace are at the announce position.)

Epstein: Welcome back to the program fans. Our next match could be a main event anywhere in the county.

DM: Careful there, Epstein. You could get sued for trademark infringement with that one. I will say though, this could be a surprisingly great match.

Epstein: It will definitely be something as the ‘Laughing Man’ meets ‘The Man That Made Milwaukee Famous’.

Hugh Morris vs. The Crusher
This match broke down quickly as the action spilled out of the ring. Both men brawled around the ringside area with reckless abandon until the ref was left with no choice but to disqualify both men.

(Epstein and Menace are at the announce position.)

Epstein: That match certainly escalated quickly.

DM: I think we would get more out of these matches if the officials weren’t so quick to disqualify the participants.

Epstein: I’m sorry but dems the rules good sir. Speaking of rules, they may get thrown out the window at Summer Bash when Sgt. Slaughter steps into the ring with Bob Backlund. Lola Patterson is standing by in the locker room with the Sarge.

(Lola Patterson is in the locker room with Sgt. Slaughter.)

Patterson: Thanks, Marco. Sgt. Slaughter, you have accepted Bob Backlund’s challenge for Summer Bash.

Slaughter: Backlund, you scum. You call me out? You challenge me? Careful what you wish for, you maggot. I’ll even take it one farther. You think you can out wrestle me? Let’s see how long you can last in a best two out of three falls match. You better come ready for a war, and that’s an order.



(Epstein and Menace are at the announce position.)

Epstein: Welcome back, fans. We just learned during the break that the match between Sgt. Slaughter and Bob Backlund at Summer Bash will indeed be best two out of three falls.

DM: I think Sgt. Slaughter may’ve gone off the deep end here. I can’t believe he would challenge someone with the stamina of Bob Backlund to an even longer match than normal.

Epstein: Well with the way Sgt. Slaughter has gone on since debuting in RMPW, I would definitely have to contend he’s got a screw loose. That being said, Slaughter is a master strategist in and out of the ring so I won’t be surprised if he has something up his sleeve. Next up we’ve got the challengers for the RMPW Tag Team Titles at Summer Bash ready to go in the ring.

The Long Riders (‘Wild’ Bill Irwin & Scott ‘Hog’ Irwin) vs. & Johnny Mitch & Jake Milliman
The Irwins definitely proved their worth as number one contenders for the RMPW Tag Team Titles in this match, operating as a well-oiled machine with their fluid double teams. Bill had Milliman in trouble after an attack with his bullwhip before putting away ‘The Milkman’ with a FLOAT KICK.

(Pre-recorded promo from the World Class Cowboys Scott Casey & Sam Houston)

Houston: We’re putting the RMWA tag team division on notice … especially the champs DiBiase and Williams. Scotty and I are two of the hardest working men in this industry and we expect that hard work to pay off in a big way.

Casey: That’s right, Sam. Anyone that steps between the ropes with us better pack a lunch because it’s going to be a long day at the office.

(Epstein and Menace are at the announce position.)

Epstein: Fans, it’s time for today’s feature contest and I hope you’re ready.

Menace: Stan Hansen can’t wait to tear RMPW Heavyweight Champion Big Van Vader apart at Summer Bash so I do not envy Hansen’s opponent here today.

Epstein: I hope Al Snow has his health insurance paid up because I feel like he may need it after this match.

Stan Hansen vs. Al Snow
There was no denying Hansen was going to win this match the way he plowed through Snow. Hansen beat Snow with THE LARIAT.

(Epstein and Menace are at the announce position.)

Epstein: That went just about how I expected.

DM: Most definitely. The trainer is definitely going to want to get the ice tube filled up for Al Snow.

Epstein: Indeed. Fans, we’re out of time. For The Dark Menace, I’m Marco Epstein saying we’ll talk to you next time.

SCOTIABANK SADDLEDOME
CALGARY, AB

‘Jumpin’ Jim Brunzell vs. Jerry Lynn
This was a very entertaining opening contest. Brunzell maintained the advantage early on, but Lynn made a comeback. Brunzell regained the advantage and poured on the offense using a HIGH FLYING DROPKICK to secure the victory.

Yukon Eric vs. Ox Baker
This was an all-out brawl, inside and outside the ring. Neither man could gain a decided advantage for very long as they continued to pound on each other. Eventually Baker got Eric in a compromised position and connected with a solid HEART PUNCH to get the pinfall.

Post match: Yukon Eric was still prone on the mat when two men with shaved heads, wearing leather jackets that have a skull and cross bones on the back, joined Baker in the ring and delivered a vicious beat down to the already downed Eric. When the carnage was complete the shorter of the two men handed Baker a leather jacket with a skull and bones on the back. Baker slid it on and proclaimed, “We are the Bald Brotherhood!”



Vivian & Luna Vachon vs. Debbie Malenko & Jazz
The Vachons were all over their opponents early. They isolated Jazz and gained several near falls. Jazz survived and managed to make the hot tag to Malenko. Malenko came in attacking. Vivian was knocked to the floor before Malenko locked Luna in the crossface chicken wing and made Luna submit.

Dick Hutton vs. The Crusher
This match almost immediately turned into an all out brawl. Crusher wore Hutton out, but Hutton managed to survive. Da Crush wasn't able to put Hutton away with back to back CRUSHER BOLOS, and Hutton managed a comeback. Crusher recovered and battled back with a vengeance, making Hutton submit to the CRUSHSER NELSON.

Disciples of Chaos (Vampiro & Sinn Bohdi) w/ Father James Mitchell vs. The Greco Grapplers (Jim Londos & George Tragos
Both teams battled back and forth throughout most of the match. Both teams executed multiple tags successful double teams before the DoC gained the advantage and put their opponents away. Bohdi pinned Londos after TALLULAH BELLE.

Post match: The action continued after the bell as DoC continued the fight. Both teams brawled for several minutes before security could get both teams back to the locker room.

BEST 2 OUT OF 3 FALL MATCH
Sgt. Slaughter vs. Bob Backlund (Iron Sheik attacks)
Backlund was all over Slaughter from the opening bell. Slaughter battled back, but Backland recovered. Backlund gained several near falls before Slaughter slammed Backlund through a ringside table, gaining a disqualification from the ref. This put Backlund up 1-0 in the best of three falls. After a one minute rest period the match progressed with the second fall. The action was back and forth briefly before Backlund again gained the upper hand. Backlund delivered an ATOMIC DROP, which looked to put Slaughter away, but as Backlund went for the pin, an individual appeared from under the ring and attacked Backlund from behind, earning Slaughter his second disqualification of the match.



Post match: Slaughter recovered and joined Iron Sheik in beating down Backlund before Baron Von Raschke hit the ring with a chair, clearing it of the attackers.

RMPW WOMEN’S TITLE MATCH
Beverly Shade vs. Mercedes Martinez
Martinez dominated the early going, but Shade may have been lulling Martinez into a false sense of security as once the action spilled out of the ring, Shade pounced. Shade gained a near fall after THE HAMMER then was all over Martinez. Martinez seemed overwhelmed when the action once again spilled out of the ring and slammed Shade through a ringside table. The ref disqualified Martinez.

RMPW JR. HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE MATCH
2 Cold Scorpio vs. RMPW Jr. Heavyweight Champion Danny Hodge
This match may've been the best so far. Scorpio definitely brought his A game and held his own against the champ throughout the match. Both men battled throughout the match, each gaining multiple near falls. The match was approaching its time limit when the action spilled out of the ring and both men brawled uncontrollably. Scorpio was the first to grab a chair and smash Hodge. Hodge retaliated and both men were disqualified.

RMPW TAG TEAM TITLE MATCH
Long Riders (‘Wild’ Bill & Scott ‘Hog’ Irwin) vs. RMPW Tag Team Champions Ted DiBiase & Steve ‘Dr. Death’ Williams
The champs continued their dominance when DiBiase made Bill submit to the FIGURE FOUR LEGLOCK.

RMPW HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE MATCH
Stan Hansen vs. RMPW Heavyweight Champion Big Van Vader
This match was a wild brawl, as expected. Both men battled, but it was the ruffian from Borger, Texas that came out on top of what ended up being a brutal, but relatively brief encounter. Hansen pinned Vader after a LARIAT to win the title.
