CARD 1141 – LAVA PITS OF PRIMUS:
Grovel overcomes Dreadnaught in a Lava Pit match. Dreadnaught must be mad to put his fragile body through a match like this. Just continues to take what he can get wherever he can get it. No way Grovel was going to refuse as it doesn’t understand the risks. Plus its manager, Krakan, would secretly love to be linked with the demise of Dreadnaught. Of course Dreadnaught lusts for a more profile opponent but at least it’s a main event spot being on last. Something that is a distant memory for Dreadnaught. Although technically Paragon-Terminus was the main match. Due to logistics Lava Pit matches always happen last. Just don’t tell Dreadnaught that. He tried his best to get something out of this. Resisting early uncoordinated attacks from Grovel to get some momentum. However a rock get thrown in and struck Dreadnaught between the eyes. Grovel then grabs him with a Throat Driver straight into some hot ashes. Either move could easily of killed Dreadnaught. Mercifully he is okay. He recovers after about 30 seconds. All too late Grovel was almost out the pit and took some assistance from its fellow primitive helping to pull it out.
Paragon punishes Terminus. The four match series begins and Terminus starts it in pretty bad shape. He was injured badly in the Circinus Cell loss to Skinhead. Plus he was part of the earlier lottery attack on Bloodline. Thantos was not letting him off the hook and insisted he wrestles on to “prove you are worth still pushing as my top guy”. His opponent Paragon has some proving of his own to do. Having been pursued for so long by Johnny Rocket only to find himself quickly out of favour on the Rocket Men due to Skinhead gaining incredible momentum. Maybe Johnny is not letting on that he’s punishing Paragon for snubbing him a few years ago. He might change his opinion after this as Paragon is totally dominant. Okay Terminus is handicapped a little but Paragon would beat more or less anybody in this mood. He laid siege to Terminus. The only criticism is the time it took. Terminus had 6 tokens on him before Paragon was finally able to get non pinned. A big boot off the ropes almost took Terminus’s head off. Paragon stood over him at the end and arrogantly taunted “same again next week?” Suspect he’s right.
Tortured Soul overcomes Blade in a seesaw battle. Let’s hope Blade doesn’t get tired of facing Tortured Soul. It’s a match that’s happened a lot this year as they’ve clashed many times at dark shows. Blade should win but that doesn’t always happen! Lorelei nervously watches. She’s pretty tired after a year of worrying for her son as well as dealing with Archon’s regular disapproval of her actions. At least it’s gone a bit quieter on the Archon front. It probably stifles her involvement here. She just watched in horror as Blade suffered a loss. He’d done well to survive the vile ROTTING CLAW a couple of times and comeback. Then looks poised to win after hitting BLADE OF RETRIBUTION only for Maleph to enter and trying to batter him with his wings. As the ref pushed it back Tortured Soul rose like the undead and smashed Blade with a head butt to the back of his skull. Completely turned the tide and Tortured Soul went on to win after a Tortured Tombstone Piledriver. It didn’t stop there as Tortured Soul threatened to continue the suffering. At this point Lorelei finally woke up. She found a metal pipe under the ring and like a deranged women she whacked Tortured Soul and Maleph until they backed off. It took quite a few hits on Tortured Soul for any pain to register. Lorelei then shouted on the mic a message clearly meant for Archon “don’t judge me, I am just a protective mother”.
Titan Attack blew away Transformer. If Transformer can’t beat Animen Invasion then they have little hope against the hot Titans. However Doomsayer remains blinded by their ability and believes they are far better and monstrous than they really are. Looking the part doesn’t necessarily mean anything. Lord Nexus takes the match very seriously and is putting his team through its paces before the announcements. He is well aware of how fickle wrestling is and if they lose a couple then they’ll be out of the mix when Twin Blood does eventually drop the titles. The wrestling media thinks he should make a formal demand of the Commissioner to award a title shot due to their incredible record. However Lord Nexus still refuses to rock the boat. Perhaps he is too respectful to a fault. Anyway his team did him proud again. Right on the pace from the get to. Monad never got out the ring as the Titans exchanged quick paced tags to keep him off balance. Scion Nexus then used THE RISE AND FALL to secure a pretty easy win.
Wraith easily beats the Soulwatcher. The popular Soulwatcher grants a rare pre match interview where he defends his apparent lack of passion and quiet demeanour “passion comes in different shapes and sizes, I just keep it inside”. He seems to of survived his feud with Draconian Sheik and is now moving on. No clear winner in that one. Soulwatcher had 2 DQ wins but lost one by pin where plenty of blood was split. Now to face a scummy Colonizer in the shape of Wraith. That put even more fans behind him. Sadly he wasn’t able to give them what they hoped for. Wraith is a step up from Draconian Sheik. Even allowing for his patchy results in the past few months. He rattled the Soulwatcher very early with a Now You See It Clothesline which took a lasting toll. Wraith knew victory was at hand and when he used PHANTOM JACKHAMMER it was all over after just a few short minutes.
Bloodline beats Meteor. For something that was supposed to be an easy work out ahead of the big battle royal at the end of the month this was a bit of a nightmare for Bloodline. First he found it annoying that Meteor had avoided BLOODLINE’S BIG BANG and produced a few kick outs on some of his big moves. Then he was subjected to a random lottery attack after he finally got it won via CETUS MASTERLOCK. Splatter and Vyper storm the ring and tag Thantos along the way. Bloodline gets backed into a corner by their threatening advances. Terminus, who was on later, saw this as a chance to win favour with Thantos. Despite his injuries he comes to the aid of Bloodline before he was set upon. Meteor was smart and got out of the way as a brawl began. One which Lethal Lottery got the better of. They managed to snare both Bloodline and Terminus in the ropes. Then Vyper draped a huge boa constrictor all over them. They got lucky that Splatter didn’t start smashing them with Arsenal as that would have caused serious injuries. Although I’m sure they didn’t feel lucky.

CARD 1142 – CENTRA PALLADIUM:
Centra champ, Code Enforcer Manslaughter, swats away the challenge of Painmaster. Despite attempts by Mandrill to diminish and alienate the role of Painmaster he has let his wrestling do the talking and earned this title shot. It’s a belt he’s flirted with before having held it in its Interplanetary form multiple times. If he wins it and negotiates one successful defence then he will become the most frequent holder of this belt of all time with 4 runs to surpass the likes of Matador of M83, Pulsar and Enigma. Trouble is Manslaughter is looking almost unbeatable. He’s such an imposing figure and with all the big guns mostly concerned with the Heavyweight belt it’s hard to see anyone beating him anytime soon. However there is always the Sentry factor. He could and would play a crucial role. Manslaughter was relentless in the first half of the match. Pounding Painmaster and adding tokens. After an Enforcer DDT he went for a cover. Sentry took aim and blasted Manslaughter. The temporary paralysis invoked gave Painmaster time to recover and get the huge frame of Manslaughter into THE TORTURE RACK. A worrying time but Manslaughter refused to give in and eventually pulled forward powerfully to break the hold. After Sentry’s intrusion all bets were off with Commando Sam. He was primed to do what it took to stop the belt switch changing hands. However he didn’t need to do anything as Manslaughter surged back. Another big wave of offence that included Sentry being knocked off the apron with a clothesline ended with HEADS WILL ROLL. The glorious reign of Manslaughter continues! Painmaster’s attempts to become Mandrill’s right hand man again may now of fully ended.
Ladies champ, Sniper, is outstanding again to beat Serpentine by count-out. Fans have started petitioning for Sniper to become wrestler of the year. Plenty of banners being displayed. Could she go through the whole year holding the belt? It would make it difficult not to give her the award if she does that. However this match posed a real danger. The Hellions often follow each other around and this was no exception. Hunger stalking the outside and the referee doing nothing to send her away despite Sniper’s protestations. It didn’t make any difference though. You need more than an ally to overcome Sniper it seems. Sniper made all the running and when Hunger did interfere after TARGET PRACTICE allowing Serpentine to attack from behind it only briefly derailed her. Sniper just got back on the horse and was quickly back to L3O. Serpentine tried to slither out of the ring only for Sniper to come out from the ring apron with a crossbody. Got two birds with one stone as Hunger was felled too. Then Sniper was quick to return to the ring and wait it out. Serpentine couldn’t recover in time and was counted-out.
Terminus defies his ailments to beat Paragon by DQ. Match number two arrives with Paragon firmly in the driving seat after last weeks dominant win. Terminus winces after each step towards the ring. Injuries still a problem for him and surely standing no chance unless he can lean on the assistance of Thantos. However it seemed he was overplaying the extent to make Paragon think it would be easy. Paragon was certainly surprised by the start Terminus made and found himself scrambling to kick out following HAMMERLOCK SLAM after just a few moves. This match was going to be way closer than the last. Early on came a dramatic ref bump after Paragon clumsily collided. In the 10 moves he was out Paragon twice tried and failed to use FINAL OVERTURE and then Terminus used his finisher twice more. Of course no ref to count any potential pin. When the ref came around he was angry and wanted to issue a DQ but he couldn’t remember who was responsible so had to let it continue. After this it was obvious the slightest transgression would be punished. So when an out of ring brawl broke out it was the opportunity he’d been looking for. Paragon seemed to be the instigator so he was the one disqualified much to the horror of Johnny Rocket. Against the odds Terminus has levelled the match series and also shown Thantos he has plenty of backbone.
Cygnus Strikeforce brushes aside Animen Invasion. Remarkable that Animen Invasion are so close to clinching a title shot but results don’t lie. They could have had a much tougher match to earn it than Cygnus Strikeforce. It would still be a massive surprise if they were to negotiate this last hurdle. Son of Ram looks suitably pumped with steam coming out of his nostrils. Almost too eager as he blindly charges at US. Traitor as soon as the bell rings and almost fell out the ring. It set the tone as Animen Invasion were put in their place. Antak got into a heap of bother and was the one pinned after US. Traitor used TURNCOAT FLYER. So Cygnus Strikeforce now move onto challenge Twin Blood for the belts. They’ve tried and failed before. Will have to much better this time to stand a chance.
Thunder overcomes Skinhead. Two of the combatants at the forthcoming battle royal get it on. Expected to be a good match. Skinhead riding high in the fed and Thunder finally showing signs of realising his potential if his recent win over Rising Sun is anything to go by. Johnny Rocket looked a little tense. Worried that the Gladiators might use this as an opportunity to injure a rival ahead of that battle royal. Johnny has never shied away from helping his team out despite his puny size but he’d stand little chance against Brute if things got ugly. It’s a really fast paced match. Thunder makes an explosive start. Skinhead just about hanging in there. When Skinhead is felled by a perfect cross body block off the top rope Johnny takes his life to in his own hands by entering the ring. It provides the perfect distraction. Skinhead was groggy but had awareness to slip on his knuckles. Thunder took a hefty blow from them as he went back to the action after Johnny’s disturbance. Then a few moves later took it again via BRASS NUCKS. Brute’s turn to interfere now as pounds the apron with such ferocity everyone stopped in their tracks. Everyone apart from Thunder who shook off the blows he had taken to grab back the initiative. When he used THE TEMPEST again in the match Johnny wisely stayed back. He’d already pushed his luck plenty enough. Skinhead was unable to respond to the cover that followed.
Ruin beats Mayhem by DQ. Mayhem’s usefulness to the Gladiators is increasing. He has sidelined Euritar and now has the chance to do the same to Ruin. Malice has THE MEGA SHOW meeting on his mind when he gives Mayhem a friendly warning “don’t mess him up too much”. Brave of the youngster and am sure words that just went in one ear and out the other. It becomes an impressive transition from tag to singles by Ruin as he comes close to pinning Mayhem a couple of times. The closest of which was after Mayhem had missed LEAP OF DOOM and Ruin adapted RACKED AND RUINED straight after. Ultimately Mayhem’s penchant for violence gets the better of him. He took to the outside and started swinging his chain around dangerously which got him disqualified.

CARD 1143 – CENTRA PALLADIUM:
TRISIS SHOWCASE featuring Pegasus … Ahead of THE MEGA SHOW Trisis is on hosting duties. She still isn’t brave enough to welcome on some of the undesirable elements. So it’s the turn of the legendary Pegasus. Let’s fast forward towards the end of interview. Of course Trisis is very pro the ROC and wonders if Pegasus is ready to step aside and allow other younger guys on the hero side pursue the Heavyweight belt. Pegasus turns on the charm and insists he is still in his prime “that’s an annoying question. It’s a good job you’re hot. There is no way I am stepping aside for anyone. I know you must be wishing Corporal Aegis can become the next champion. However he has to earn the right just like I did. With over 15 years experience of this federation it is hard for me to accept any new kids on the block. I want to be the top guy for as long as possible and will be competing harder than anyone in the battle royal to win the belt again. If I have to toss your beloved Aegis over the top rope then so be it. The Centra fans will love me just like the ones in Dimension K. Back there I was known as the hero of heroes”. Fan response is mixed. There is cheering and booing in equal measure. Trisis seems slightly taken in and smiles “you are quite the specimen and if one of the ROC members cannot be champion then I hope it’s you. The main thing is that the Colonizers or Gladiators do not triumph. I hope you and the ROC will work together to ensure that doesn’t happen. Anyway I wish you good luck”. Pegasus likes Trisis and gives her a wink before starting to depart. His exit path is cut off by Bloodline emerging from the shadows. Suddenly things look very interesting. Trisis scrambles for her mic to pick up on what is being said. Bloodline is fed up with what he was hearing and came out to remind Pegasus about how he beat him last month. Starts taunting Pegasus about being past his prime and that the next generation has already replaced him. Pegasus calmly responds “I find your intrusion very rude and disrespectful. No wonder your family has disowned you. I sense you want another match. If I wasn’t so pressed for time I’d frogmarch you to the ring right now. Ideally I’d like to take you on in a Ruins of Antilia match and show how lucky you was last time but seeing as that’s off limits how about we go to Primus at the first opportunity and get in one of those lava pits? I can then teach you some manners. I’ll probably be a heavyweight champion by that time so you can get a good look at the belt”. Bloodline said nothing. He just slowly backed away whilst never averting his stare. The intensity in his eyes suggested the match would happen. Trisis was pretty pleased with this scoop. She was worried her shows were getting a little dull with the lack of incidents.
Paragon crushed Terminus. Halfway through and neither holds an advantage. It’s one win apiece. I suppose if it ends even then whoever wins the big one at THE MEGA SHOW can claim victory in the series. Terminus was moving more freely but there’s still a visible limp. Paragon is not falling for that again and mouths to Johnny Rocket “he’s faking it”. After stumbling in the last match Paragon really meant business. The handbrake well and truly off as he piled into Terminus and hit power move after power move. It was still a surprise though when he won so easily. The first pin attempt of the match following a Paragon Power Bomb was successful after a snake eyes roll. Of course that also meant doubles and set the scene for an after match incident. Paragon was arrogantly celebrating. Thantos shouts at Terminus to get up and give him something to think about ahead of their final match next week. Thantos makes sure Johnny Rocket is incapacitated whilst Terminus lets Paragon have it with a folded chair that was slid into the ring for him. Paragon staggered forward but didn’t go down. So Terminus grabs him with HAMMERLOCK SLAM and does it over and over. He doesn’t stop until he is sure that damage has been done. Eventually Thantos releases Johnny Rocket from the full nelson he was being held back in. Johnny runs in and strikes Terminus with weak blows that barely register. It looks like Johnny might now get the same treatment. Fortunately for him Enigma dives into the middle of the ring to floor Terminus having been alerted to what was happening. Terminus manages to scramble out the ring, looks over at the injured Paragon and shouts “now we’re even and can finally have a fair fight”. Indeed they will as this causes a 2 card injury which is considered minor so both their stats will get modified in the same way.
Prodigy wins a thrilling match against Enigma. A throwback to the good old days when they used to contest dazzling matches for the now retired Cruiserweight belts (both GWF and CPC). These days it’s more about the Centra belt. Something Enigma has already held. Above all that it’s very critical to the ongoing feud between the Rocket Men and Team CPC. Both managers are ready and present for this and the following match (Terminus-Paragon). We were just keeping our fingers crossed that they don’t mess this up. With both guys ability and acrobatic styles it was guaranteed to be a feast for the eyes if left undisturbed. Unfortunately Thantos cannot help himself and was trying to attack Enigma early on. Luckily the ref takes no nonsense. It then became the dazzling contest we all hoped for. The finish was just typical as Enigma missed ENIGMA SUICIDA doing great damage to himself. Prodigy pounced on the error with THE PERFECT SINGLES FINISHER twice to steal the win. When Thantos is later criticised for his interfering attempts he says of it “it’s my duty as a manager to assist, wrestling is a results business”.
Wraith over Warfare by DQ. After a torrid start to wrestling the SWAT Team is improving greatly. Especially Warfare who is using his size and power to good effect. He was more than equal to Overkill in his last match. This has not gone unnoticed by Corporal Aegis who know wants him to try out a singles match. The fact it’s against an arch enemy shows how much faith Aegis has. Overall Warfare did quite well. If there is a criticism it was he placed too much emphasis on his power here even when it wasn’t working as well as usual. Wraith was able to stand up to him on that front. Sadly it didn’t get a decent outcome. Warfare got too close to Sentry and ended slamming him into concrete. He just assumed Sentry would do something dastardly so got in there first. The ref deemed this needless violence as Sentry hadn’t done anything and rules the DQ.
Ninja Assassins barely tested by Third Planet. Ninja Assassins are like lost souls on Centra. They didn’t wrestle at all last month and before that bombed out of ONLY THE BEST in the first round. Considering all their past success the blame must be with Reynard B. Guile’s management style. He isn’t even at ringside with them for this one. So that scuppers any chance of using their switch routine. Strangely they were kind of playing heroes for this one as they were up against Third Planet. Kind of a meaningless match overall. However with all sorts of rumours flying around that Tough Guy is on borrowed time in the Hitmen there was the potential to advance that storyline. Perhaps even being the match they end up turning on each other. There was plenty ammunition for that to happen as Tough Guy surrendered their early offence after being tagged in. He then got felled by an innocuous inside sweep by Daeman. Hit the back of his head hard and got pinned. Mike Fortune entered the ring after this and menacingly approached his partner. There was no internal discontent between Third Planet in the end though as Fortune helped him up. In fact was being over the top chummy and making sure he was okay. Tough Guy better beware. Sometimes your enemies don’t come at you with weapons. Intentions often disguised with handshakes and hugs. For the Ninja Assassins it begged the question. Are they just better off without B. Guile?
Code Enforcers over Disorder X by DQ decision. Can Disorder X work together after what happened last time? They need to be at their very best to cope with the Code Enforcers. Euritar would be a handful as he is now injury free and desperate to bounce back from his disastrous match with Mayhem. Is interesting that the Code Enforcers still wrestle so many tag matches in addition to singles. Especially when you consider Manslaughter is the current Centra champ. However it fits Commando Sam’s ethos that all his troops should be able to wage war on all fronts. Sam was surprised not to see Thantos opposing him. Especially as Thantos has other wrestlers in action later. Word is that Thantos was so disgusted by the behaviour of Disorder X last time that he will not provide them with his managerial ringside presence until they prove they can work together. They might just of done enough to provide that proof despite losing by DQ. More than matched the Code Enforcers. They even risked Total Disorder again and got it right. Possibly Grunge then got their card marked when he used GUITAR SHOT. Euritar saved Manslaughter after he took that hit. Disorder X were walking a DQ tightrope after that and when Mace showed a lack of stealth in his using a metal rod he’d found on the floor outside the ring that decision came. Despite the loss it was much better from Disorder X. Most people thought they were going to get blown away tonight.
Mayhem beat Sir Ender after toying with him for a few minutes. Sir Ender has now been chewed up and spat out by every Gladiatior apart from Overkill. Before this match he summoned up the courage to ask Brute if he was now able to join them. A real loss of faculties. Brute laughed and said “not until you pin one of us in the ring”. Maybe its dawned on Sir Ender that this will never happen as he tried to make a mad dash from the Centra Palladium on his horse at the last minute. He also overheard Mayhem saying that the plan was to smash his skull with his chain. Unfortunately he didn’t get very far as Overkill had been lurking in the shadows at the back of the runway. He stepped across the horse and spooked it throwing Sir Ender off. He was then dragged by Overkill back to the ring and fed to Mayhem. No surprise that Mayhem won easily. He played around with Sir Ender for a few minutes before DANGER ZONE ended it. Although there were a couple of moments that nearly embarrassed him. One was a turnbuckle charge that got missed and led to Mayhem flying out of the ring. The other was nearly to make the same mistake as Vengeance and get himself disqualified. When Mayhem was smashing Sir Ender’s head into the ring apron over and over you could see the ref contemplating it. In the end he let it go after Mayhem uncharacteristically heeded his warning.

CARD 1144 – THE MEGA SHOW – CENTRA PALLADIUM:
A special matches fest and 14 matches in total if you count the dark matches. It’s a huge event. Possibly too huge as sometimes events can be bogged down with lots of unnecessary clutter. Of course the Battle Royal main event to determine the new Heavyweight champion hogs all the build up. A shame as it overshadows some intriguing matches on the undercard.
Pegasus tosses Archon to win the vacant Heavyweight belt in a 10 Man Battle Royal. The other competitors were Corporal Aegis, Mandrill, Thunder, Vengeance, Skinhead, Bloodline, Archon, Blazing Skull and Max Shield. The introductions proved problematic as it takes time and guys were beginning to fight even before the official start. It took the belt being brought out by an official for everyone in the ring to stop arguing as they ogle it. Outside of Corporal Aegis Skinhead was getting a lot of crowd support and really responds to it. He could do with hanging back if he wants a chance to win. However he seems to be like a dog with a bone and was attacking anybody that comes nearby. In the end Pegasus prevails after an almighty battle between all the combatants. The order of eliminations were as follows … Archon eliminated Vengeance. First to go was Vengeance as the self proclaimed Gladiator leader did his chances of keeping that status no good at all … Skinhead throws Mandrill out to a huge cheer. Mandrill tries to get back on the apron and pull him out too but gets kicked off again by Corporal Aegis … Max Shield throws Blazing Skull out. Archon had done all the hard work. However Archon’s morals mean his card lacks an ‘out of ring’ option making him not a very effective batter royal wrestler … Max Shield then ends Bloodline’s interest. Great elimination by Max to catch the youngster off guard. Bloodline was trying to stay out of the action and preserve energy but Max wouldn’t let him … Max Shield really on a roll as Skinhead is eliminated by him. Seemed inevitable that Skinhead wouldn’t last. He was going around attacking anything that moved … Pegasus throws Corporal Aegis out. The crowd boo. As the only villain left at the time Thunder was getting ganged on. Pegasus was close to eliminating him after PROJECT PEGASUS. Then Aegis waded in to try and do the job himself. Aegis saw this as helping out but Pegasus did not. It caused him to turn on Aegis and let Thunder off the hook. Pegasus then throws the local hero out … Thunder ousted by Max Shield. Happens after Max throws Thunder at the ropes and misses the follow up clothesline. Max ended up hanging on the apron but Thunder furiously kicks at him several times to force him off. This spot came shortly after Pegasus really got on the wrong side of the fans as he had been targeting the last ROC guy who was Max. He saw Max as the main threat of the remaining four and made a beeline for him. PROJECT PEGASUS failed to eject Max but they had a prolonged battle. Eventually Thunder got involved and nearly regretted it as Max dominated him only to make a big mistake. Thunder is in by far worst shape of the final three as he has 7 tokens whilst Pegasus and Archon have 0 … Archon quickly beats the wounded Thunder. ARCHON SLEEPER CLAMP is applied and he is able to bundle him out with a slight helping hand from Pegasus … Pegasus eliminated Archon to win the Heavyweight belt. In a one-on-one Archon is no match for Pegasus and gets hurled over the top rope after PROJECT PEGASUS. When he is presented with the belt some sections of the crowd boo as they resent the way he went after ROC members. Pegasus seems oblivious to it all as he celebrates his title triumph.
Tag champs, Twin Blood, shine again as they beat Cygnus Strikeforce by DQ. Seems like Twin Blood have been holding these tag belts forever. In fact with this match their reign has reached 41 cards. So still less than a year. Still very impressive given the field of tag teams. They never underestimate anyone but could certainly be very confident of extending that. The challengers, Cygnus Strikeforce, had not been expected. It’s the result of many top teams shooting themselves in the foot with lacking consistency and Titan Attack being held back by the Commissioner. Johnny Rocket was being very vocal on the mic and proclaiming his team as the greatest of all time. It kind of got a bit nauseating. He only shut up when Mangus came out and he could see the scorching branding element on his suit. In some of the promos Mangus had said even though these guys weren’t from Earth he planned to brand them and there was a special message reserved for Johnny’s buttocks! Luckily he didn’t have to worry as his boys delivered yet again. They allowed Cygnus Strikeforce about 30 seconds of offence before taking total control. They cut off US. Traitor and set about getting him pinned as quick as possible. Minor finishers like DREGGS OF DEFEAT and SEEING DOUBLE came his way. They didn’t do the job but ensured Traitor was suitably fatigued for anything else that came his way. When Dreggs delivers a spectacular Maxus Moonsault it was time for Maelstrom to enter the ring. His pin save was far too heavy handed and caused his team to be disqualified. As if that wasn’t enough he was then ejected from the ring as Twin Blood teamed up with double dropkicks. That left Traitor on his own. Once he stood up Johnny Rocket whacked him over the head with his mic causing him to scramble. It was similar to how an old woman might deal with a hoodlum by letting them have it with their umbrella. As a final act Johnny teases Mangus by shaking his backside at him and saying “bad luck on the branding”.
Anarchy gets the better of Wolf in Torture Chamber match. What a match we had in prospect. The people of Centra were excited to see the Torture Chamber lowered into position over the two wrestlers. They’d been crying out for it ever since learning of it and that there was guaranteed bloodshed ahead. Wolf could barely wait for it to click into place so he could attack Anarchy. He gives a loud howl and leaps forwards at the first opportunity. Both of them impacted the titanium side immediately. Unlike a normal cage match these bars don’t move at all so none of the energy gets absorbed. Wolf is first to stir. He gets up and reaches into his mouth which already had blood dribbling from it and pulls out a tooth. Thankfully it wasn’t one of the front fangs. Not sure if it was bravery or stupidity but Wolf then dived at Anarcy again and once again met with the bars. Anarchy couldn’t believe his luck and set about having a long run of offence. The bars were used again countless times and CRUCIFIX DROP naturally came into play. His domination equated to a 2 pin lead. It was now that Wolf tried to make one of famed comebacks and if he’d pulled it off would surely of gone down as one of the great all time performances. Ignoring the pain throughout his body he rocked Anarchy with his own offence and powerfully ground away at his cranium with SAVAGE FACE CLAW. Unfortunately the adrenaline that was driving him on ran out of fuel and Archon got control back with a counter. The fans hoped and prayed Wolf could find something more. It didn’t look good though as Anarchy started bringing his big moves out again and of course the bars continued to be used. When he launched at Wolf with a flying gutbuster it was clear that this was now over. Wolf was barely moving and the official on the outside made the decision to end the contest. The chamber is lifted quickly to stop Anarchy continuing and so that medical assistance can be administered to Wolf. It’s a tough loss to take. Hopefully it doesn’t put a dampener on the year for Wolf. He’s had a good one overall. As with anyone who loses this match injuries are always a risk and Wolf suffers one that will afflict him for the next 4 cards.
Paragon beats Terminus in a Cosmic Cage match. The gruelling match series comes to an end tonight. Terminus, having carried injuries all month long, will be relieved this is over. Whether he will be allowed to rest by his manager is uncertain. If he remains tired at least he’ll be uninjured. The limp that was still in evidence last week has largely disappeared. At least Paragon will be handicapped to the same level after Terminus beat him down at the end of the last meeting. Not condoning after match attacks but in a strange way it makes it seem more fair. With Paragon leading 2-1 he is favoured to win the series. However if Terminus levels it then he might just win the overall bragging rights given the magnitude of this event and the fact this is a cage match. Managers are often not allowed at ringside for cage matches but they are permitted here. They cannot do much to interfere anyway. The only real input Johnny Rocket had was to massage the huge shoulders of Paragon. After slow introductions where both guys preserve energy by ambling to the cage we finally got underway. Terminus had the better start. So much so that he had a couple of escape attempts almost straight away. If he hadn’t of had that leg injury he might’ve been out the door even quicker. Paragon takes notice of these scares and finds another gear. His big finisher looks imminent until Terminus takes evasive action. Paragon looks frustrated but another move he likes to use to finish matches comes next as he smashes Terminus with a big boot off the ropes. The crunch on impact was very audible. Paragon then signals for the door to be unlocked. He wants the easy way out. As he gets there Thantos tries to slam it in his face. Paragon gets an arm up to stop this happening and forces it fully open which sent his old manager tumbling. Johnny Rocket laughs on sight of this although he then stifles it when Thantos angrily threatens to use his MASTERLOCK to snap his legs like twigs. All the while Paragon has exited the cage and is already heading off down the runway. In his mind job done and he will be ready to assume star billing on his team again if Skinhead doesn’t do well later in the battle royal.
Theatre of Pain annihilated the Clones in a Cosmic Cage match. Commissioner Morpheus had been against these two teams meeting again due to all the bizarre antics. Now he relents after fan interest makes him see value in a rematch. It was a while ago when the last dramatic twist happened on #1130. The Clones interfering to cause Theatre of Pain a mega embarrassing loss to Animen Invasion. That’s not been forgotten by any means. To try and get some kind of clear outcome it’s been stuck inside a cage. The Clones still manage to add some silliness that almost jeopardises the whole thing as a spectacle. Defender of the Realm pushes a cage on wheels through the curtain and down the runway containing the giggling Mad Jester. If there had been a ramp I’m sure he’d of pushed him up it so that Jester would have been in a cage within a cage. The sideshow nearly backfired though as Defender cannot find the key. With Theatre of Pain about to get their curtain call Defender looked like he might have to face them alone now. Jester then reaches up to a chain around his neck and finds the key attached “silly me I had it all along”. Just in the nick of time he’s released and ready to face the bemused Theatre of Pain. Even Comedy wasn’t laughing at the joke. The fans are clearly behind Theatre of Pain here. They have been floating between hero and villain status depending on who they are facing but tonight it’s pretty clear what they are. Once they get hands on the Clones it’s immediately apparent they were going to have a good night. The Clones had clearly spent so much time on their silly sideshow that they forgot to actually plan for trying to win the match. Mad Jester was all cramped up from being in that mini cage that he offered no resistance. The Clones dominated him and didn’t let him tag out at all. There were a few failed pins and escape attempts before Tragedy eventually finished him with Pageant of Pain. The sudden release of balloons from a trapdoor beside the ring was something the Clones had setup to celebrate their triumph. Which was pretty embarrassing for them.
The Hitmen beat the Terrorists and Fighting Titans in a Three Way Battlezone match. Lots of moving parts in this feud. No question that the Titans have been the shining light among these 3 teams. They have been brilliant on Centra. Seems scandalous that they’ve got no belts to show for it. Lord Nexus doesn’t mind though. There’s more to life than holding titles. Anyway for once his team doesn’t fare so well in this match marathon. They are the first team to be out of wrestlers after making a poor start. It’s the Hitmen who have bragging rights tonight. The matches went was follows … Vyper beats Ursa Major in the opener. He controlled virtually the entire match. Barely a scratch on him and wins via VYPER’S SIDESHOW … Vyper continues his flying start by beating Grovel. It was double delight for Vyper as he also laid out Krakan who’d tried to interfere … Vyper beats Meteor for his third win in a row. Meteor may of been welcomed in by the Titans and made to feel like part of the furniture but he remains woefully below the requisite level. Nobody expects any big things of him. He gave his best. Just couldn’t hang with Vyper and goes down to VYPER’S SIDESHOW … Dark Justice defeated Vyper by DQ. Vyper’s first real test. He ends up being smashed with ROD OF JUSTICE which causes the Terrorists to storm the ring. In a violent attack Justice is smashed with their billy clubs and whipped. Mike Fortune runs out from the back with an oversized replica gun to clear the ring and end the attack. Damage was done though. Justice was in bad shape and left with injuries. He wants to continue in the match despite this (5 card injury applied as per the roll) … Scion Nexus beats Dark Justice by DQ to give the Titans a foothold in this match. Justice was still down when Scion reached the ring. The young Titan sportingly tried to help him up rather than set about immediate offence. He just got an angry brush off. After that no more sympathy as Scion makes use his advantage. Needing a few minutes to be on the verge of victory following THE RISE AND FALL. Annoyingly Krakan doesn’t give him the satisfaction of a pin fall over Justice. Interferes to cause a DQ outcome instead. In terms of the overall match it matters not how victory was attained though … Splatter beats Scion Nexus by DQ. When anyone looks back at the result they’d be forgiven for thinking it was misprint and the DQ happened the other way around. However it is completely correct. Splatter kept heading out the ring. Eventually Scion got sucked into a brawl. The Terrorists kept up their busy night by masking Splatter’s chair attack from the ref. A swing and a miss. Splatter then drops the chair so Scion in an act of self preservation whacked him with it. of course the ref saw that as Lord Nexus is not one to make distractions. So uncharacteristically a Titan takes a DQ loss. Leaves them with just one guy. Luckily it’s their star performer in Rising Sun … Mike Fortune makes surprisingly easy work of Splatter. Fortune isn’t the most agile of guys but Splatter was so chaotic on offence he was just picked off and pinned after THE HANGMAN … Rising Sun overcame Mike Fortune. Rising with a lot to do if the Titans are to come back. He starts well enough as he quickly beats Fortune after a Titan Drop … Rising Sun defeated Draconian Sheik by DQ. The Terrorists doing their guys no favours as they cost Drac the match with another attack. Thankfully it’s not on the same level as what happened to Justice earlier … Tough Guy beats Rising Sun by DQ. Astonishing to see two Titan wrestlers suffer a DQ fate in this match. Rising had a long wait before Tough Guy bothered to show. Should have helped him get his breath back. Instead it just caused agitation and he ended up brawling after a few minutes of even wrestling. It was just what Tough Guy and Krakan wanted. Rising fell into their trap. The Titans now out wrestlers and it leaves the Hitmen as hot favourites because next match is the decider and only Mutant stands between them and victory … Tough Guy predictably closes things out over Mutant. He didn’t need long to lock on his feared FIGURE-FOUR LEGLOCK. The ref took the high pitched squealing of Mutant as a submission and called for the ball. The Terrorists looked like they might attack afterwards. That was until Krakan reached under the ring and pulled out a huge gun which was almost the same size as him. There was no way of telling if it was real or not. Only a fool would have risked finding out.
Malice and Overkill beat Desolation Factor in a titanic Titan Death match. These two teams hate each other so much that they have contested so many DQ outcomes (including when the Gladiator duo was Thunder and Overkill). It was smart booking to make this a Titan Death match. There is immense pressure on the Gladiator team to deliver the win. They have looked poor most times they’ve wrestled this year. Desolation Factor are, probably for the first time when facing the Gladiators, labelled the favourites. However Malice and Overkill finally got it together in this epic battle as Desolation Factor wilts under the weight of expectation. Both teams had massive moments and could have won. Their damaging tag finishers were deployed during the course of it. Pin saves were then triggering massive brawls. The fatigue count kept on rising and it ended up being a lesser move that finished things off. Overkill crushed Ruin with TURNBUCKLE TRAP to give the Gladiators a massive win. They are back!
Rebel Empire overcame the SWAT Team in a Titan Death match. Massive strides have been made by the SWAT Team. They have been beaten handily in all previous meetings with Rebel Empire. This time they might just have a chance and with it being Titan Death rules they wouldn’t worry about being blasted by Sentry’s stun gun. Although it gives Rebel Empire carte blanche to bend the rules. Warfare is brimming with confidence and wants to do it all. His mate, Trench, has to remind him that he can share the load too. Sadly the positivity doesn’t translate into a first win over their rivals. Warfare almost came a cropper against Vendetta very early on after THE BIG FALL. Trench ran in with the ramrod to save him and reverse the pin. The SWAT Team cannot maintain the advantage though. Later Trench tried to go toe-to-toe with Nefarus and got out wrestled. It wasn’t any surprise to see him lose to SCISSORDRIVER. It was very clear in the match postmortem that although the SWAT Team has improved they are still a long way behind Rebel Empire.
Mayhem destroyed Code Enforcer Manslaughter in a non-title Titan Death match. Manslaughter wanted to be in the main event battle royal and have a chance to win both singles belts. Commando Sam is having a tough time reining him in. The Heavyweight belt is still very much the domain of Pegasus within the team. He convinces him that Mayhem needs dealing with after what he did to his fellow Code Enforcer Euritar. The Centra belt wasn’t put on the line although Mayhem dared him to do it. Just as well as it turned out as Manslaughter suffers a rare loss. Seemed that not even LEAP OF DOOM could beat him as he kicked out after it. Then he began to get momentum and looked the likely winner. That was until a fatal collision as they other clotheslined each other down after a whip into the ropes. Mayhem recovered first and went for his kamikaze finisher again. He could not of hit it any better and this time there was no kick out. Everyone taking big notice of Mayhem as he has crushed both Code Enforcers now. There could very likely be an immediate rematch between them as Mayhem is almost certain to now receive a shot at the Centra belt. Secondary titles have historically been of no interest to the Gladiators but this attitude has changed in light of a recent lack of success.
Prodigy wins a fast paced match over Blade. Prodigy facing up to similar size opponents in recent weeks after Thantos urged him to get back to cruiserweight roots in a way to sneak back up the rankings ladder. He is big favourite to win this one. Blade has been suffering a confidence crisis this year due to losses to Tortured Soul plus the problems between Lorelei and Archon. No better time like an event like this to give a lift. His opening few minutes looked really good too as he was clearly the better of the two. However he then found himself getting very angry when Prodigy bailed outside and starts coming onto his mother by calling her a MILF. Thantos then laughs which causes Blade to go for him instead. Bad move as Prodigy gets him from behind with a flying clothesline and took over from that point. After a brief show of his incredible agility Prodigy then uses THE PERFECT SINGLES FINISHER a couple of times to seal it.
Thrash obliterates Amazonia. I say it time and again but this is a feud that just never dies. They are not in direct team feud conflict yet they still love nothing better than to face off with each other. Strangely Amazonia takes a swipe at the event organisers by saying they shouldn’t be wrestling this early in the evening and it shows how women’s wrestling is as under appreciated on Centra as it was in the known dimension. In my fed I tend to the matches in order of importance. So she might have a point. Anyway it’s up to them to try and change perception and serve up a thriller. In reality it’s not a bad match although not exactly edge of the seat stuff. Amazonia might have had plenty of gusto to say what she did but it vanishes in the ring. Mostly second best to Thrash and not offering a single L3 move in the few minutes it lasted. Thrash, on the other hand, seemed pretty fired up and matches the resurgence of the other Gladiators with a strong display that ends on FEMME FATAL.
Nora Pelf and Taechon grab a fortunate win over the Hellions by DQ. Nora and Taechon were huge underdogs but that’s no excuse for sloppy wrestling. Nora seemed to get really worked up by Hunger calling her ‘Rich Bitch’ in a demonic voice emitted from her gruesome abdomen. Seems to just forget she has a partner that can be called upon and tries to do it all herself. Very quickly she gets overwhelmed by them. Finds herself clinging on with a few desperate kick outs. Then gets very lucky as the Hellions let their Brymstonian characters go too far by taking things out on the floor and trying to use weapons. The ref stamped down it fast and called for a disqualification. Felt sorry for Taechon who didn’t get in on any of the action and just spent the whole time looking lonely and unloved in her team’s corner.
DARK MATCHES:
Supernova sees off Anaxis. Sad to see Supernova in this spot on the event. Try as she might but she can’t seem to get things consistently going on Centra. All can she do is win here and try to force herself back into contention and back on the air. She did what was needed. Overcoming a wobbly start and CALL OF THE SIREN to turn it around and pin Anaxis after SPEED OF LIGHT. It was actually a pretty entertaining match that on reflection would’ve been a much better opener than the one that did start the show off.
Spike easily beats Dreadnaught. Two golden oldies. We’ve been seeing less and less of Spike suggesting his comeback run is coming to an end. After over two decades in the ring he still looks great though. Sadly by contrast Dreadnaught looks like death warmed up. It was quite one-sided. A couple of heart in mouth moments as the death chart option came up. Luckily it never needed consulting and Spike went onto win with MEGADESTROYER. I kind of like having Dreadnaught around and hope he can lost another game year at least. Deep down it would be fitting if he perished in a Centra Coffin match. Those get introduced next year I think so will be scheduling those like crazy.

GWFC REPORT (THE END 2110 CARDS 1141- 1144)
Champions
* GWFC Heavyweight Champ: Pegasus (Top Contender: Thunder) * GWFC Tag Champs: Twin Blood (Top Contenders: Malice and Overkill) * GWFC Centra Champ: Code Enforcer Manslaughter (Top Contender: Mayhem) * GWFC Ladies Champ: Sniper (Top Contender: Thrash)
Latest News:
All hail the new Heavyweight champion Pegasus. It’s the fifth time he has won it now (still in the record books as having three reigns though due to losing immediately on the first one). You cannot keep a great wrestler down as he proves he is not yesterday’s news. He wins the battle royal for the vacant belt by last eliminating Archon. Not all fans were happy as he heavily targeted their ROC heroes during the battle. It probably doesn’t help that many people were already upset because Genocide had essentially been stripped of the belt without losing which paved the way here. Pegasus said “I am sorry if I upset people but in a match like that it is every man for himself. If it’s any consolation Max Shield was a formidable opponent and that’s why I really went after him”. His first defence will not come from Archon even though he was in the final two (similar story for Archon as for Titan Attack in the tag division). Instead Thunder’s resurgence with wins over Rising Sun, Skinhead and lasting to the final three of the battle royal sees him labelled as the shock top contender.
The Gladiators are back to business and that’s really going to affect the lay of the land. Recent results have been much stronger. Especially those of Thunder and Mayhem. Not that Aethrans are really the types to mourn but it is possible Massacre’s death had a negative impact. With him gone there is no clear leader. Is it Brute or is it Vengeance? Nobody is quite sure. However they finally look dangerous again. It’s good to see that in a way. Although confident Gladiators are capable of terrible things and much destruction. They actually have a massive opportunity to get their hands of gold again next month and could actually win all the belts as there is a Gladiator named as top contender for all of them. It’s unlikely but it will be incredible if they win them all.
Speaking of the Gladiators it seems they have finally decide to lay off Sir Ender. Having beaten him from pillar to post it has become boring for them. Sir Ender is relieved and commented “I am not sure it would be a wise career move right now to join them. Mayhem has anger issues and it might cause some problems. There is and always will be a mutual respect between us”. There must of been much laughter on Centra when that comment was published.
Thantos declares Team CPC has no interest in pursuing the Terrorists over the mindless lottery attack that Bloodline fell victim too. If injuries had been inflicted it might have been another reaction. Instead he says “they are loose cannons, it would be of no benefit to engage in an extra feud with the Terrorists”.
The thread by which Disorder X are hanging stays intact. Could have put money on them breaking up during their match against the Code Enforcers. Especially with no Thantos being at ringside. Instead they worked together and took a narrow DQ loss. However their future is still uncertain. Grunge couldn’t help a bit of backstabbing after it. He complimented his partners efforts but made sure to let everyone know that despite this Mace did cost them the match again. Smart money is now on them waiting til the 2111 press conferences to turn on each other.
Will we see Lorelei enter the ring into the women’s division next year? Her friend, Amazonia, keeps suggesting she starts wrestling. They already regularly train and work out together. Lorelei won’t say much on the matter other than “I’m pretty worn out managing our team. I cannot think beyond that. At the moment I am just training to blow off some steam”. If she does do it then it would add another possible tag team of her and Amazonia to the mix. We’ve already got the Hellions and Feminine Fury. Plus Nora Pelf and Taechon seem to of buddied up. Maybe one more and there is a case for a ladies tag team title to be created. These ‘Warrior Women’ could be a potent force. In fact that’s a pretty good name for their team if it happens.
Anaxis thought she had left the masochistic ways of Heracles way behind her since coming to Centra. A leopard never changes its spots it seems as she is allowing herself to be treated like dirt by a new master in Thantos. He has decided to pimp her out to other teams. Offering her ringside services (plus extras for a slightly higher cost). A despicable act but what’s worse is that he gets a customer in the shape of Krakan. He wants her to oppose Sniper next month. Maxine Babe isn’t up to the task. Plus by having her on board for a while and cosying up to Tough Guy might drive Sniper mad. Especially as they are rumoured to be in a relationship.
Genocide is ready to explode back into action and that’s bad news for the Colonizers. The Heavyweight belt might be back on his radar too if Thunder manages to upset Pegasus next month too. However revenge against those who attacked him is his highest priority.
Doh! I was just looking back over the 2110 booklet and completely missed Tough Guy accusing Krakan about being a Mother Hen and the possible no show mechanic. Better late than never I guess. Starting with THE MEGA SHOW I started rolling it and will do for remainder of the year. I better make sure to book him quite a bit to make it worthwhile. Anyway it shows the internal issues within the Hitmen are growing despite their triumph at THE MEGA SHOW. Plus to add to their problems Dark Justice is injured for 5 cards after the Terrorists violently attacked him during the Battlezone match. Notably Mike Fortune ran out to help Justice whilst Tough Guy was nowhere to be seen. Allegedly off somewhere canoodling with Sniper. He only just made his curtain call for his match. Luckily for him he did the job.
INJURED – Paragon (1), Wolf (4), Dark Justice (5); SUSPENDED – none
WRESTLER OF THE MONTH:
PRODIGY - The panel couldn’t decide between him or Mayhem so they tossed a coin. Both have been really impressive. Prodigy’s wins over Enigma and Blade were achieved in great style and he reminds us all that he’s still a big player. Is one of the greatest ever and proof that it can come in small packages.
TAG TEAM OF THE MONTH:
MALICE AND OVERKILL - They won in what was not only the biggest but also the most entertaining tag match of the month. Signs that this new Gladiator pairing are at long last ready to impose themselves.

CARD 1145 – LAVA PITS OF PRIMUS:
The big story is Mutant going AWOL. Hours after the show Sir Ender goes on Centra Spacebook and reveals he has received intelligence that it has been kidnapped by a criminal gang and is being held to ransom. He plans to rescue the poor creature.
Pegasus crushed Bloodline in a non-title Lava Pit match. Bloodline may have been underwhelming at THE MEGA SHOW in getting eliminated early but Pegasus going onto win was the best thing that could of happened. With this match already in the books plus a win in Antilia over him a few weeks ago it represents a genuine chance to force a title shot if he wins again here. In fact Bloodline cheekily suggested the title should go on line now. Nothing doing though. There is behind the scenes discontent though as Terminus thinks Bloodline has knifed him in the back by getting so involved against Pegasus. He still thinks he is the main man on Team CPC and did enough to prove that last month in his match series with Paragon last month despite wrestling injured through it all and ultimately losing the series 3-1. Terminus couldn’t be further from the mind of Bloodline though as he prepares for Pegasus. He look totally unimpressed with the new champ and reaches down to grab some hot ash with which to greet him. The minute Pegasus enters the pit Bloodline tried to throw it in his face. Pegasus instinctively ducked. He then took hold of Bloodline and planted him face first into a smoking part of the pit as punishment for trying such a thing. Pegasus now cheekily goes for an instant escape and almost achieves it. This part of the pit was just too steep and he fell back in. The result was both guys were down and the match wasn’t even a minute old. Fortunately Pegasus recovered the quicker and set to work again. Bloodline barely got a look in from this point. In what seemed no time at all he was on the end of PROJECT PEGASUS. The move is always pretty devastating and not too many survive its effects. Pegasus knew it was pretty much in the bag as long as he chose a safe part of the pit wall to try and get up and over. He had plenty of time to take care of his footing and managed it for what was on the face of it a pretty easy win. This might of killed a lot of Bloodline’s momentum.
Prodigy squashed Skinhead in a match with nobody allowed at ringside. A sledgehammer blow for Skinhead having reached unimaginable heights he is now returning to levels more expected of him. He looks pretty deflated. We all hope he doesn’t slip back to hitting the bottle. It’s a bad time to face his ex partner as Prodigy has found his old form. At least they should get a clear run at each other as stipulations were set to stop any managers from being at ringside. Sadly it offered Skinhead no advantage as he lost to Prodigy for the first time in as long as anyone can remember. There’s no disgrace in losing but it was the manner of it. Ended up being a squash as he allowed Prodigy to outwit during an outside exchange that ended with him eating the ring post. Back in the ring Prodigy moves like lightening to try his finisher followed by a trip to the top rope. From here he flew at Skinhead with a cross body block of perfect execution. The impact caused them to roll. Prodigy’s reaction to this was brilliant as he used the momentum to force a double roll and come out in the pinning position with the leg hooked. It was like a work of art. Prodigy wins again and is looking really special whenever he wrestles. He refuses to let guys like Bloodline and Terminus overshadow him.
Vyper easily beats Meteor in an over the top rope challenge. Different kind of match. The participants just kind of thrown together. There wasn’t much appetite for it among the roster. Meteor is just desperate to get booked on shows and was a willing guinea pig. It was a pretty horrible effort from him though. Vyper dominates for a minute or two and then pulls out a snake from within his tights and Meteor just eliminates himself.
Ninja Assassins embarrass Transformer in under 20 seconds. A rare all villain match. These are two teams at loose ends. Neither manager really doing a whole lot to enhance their careers and not expected to still be guiding them as we move into 2111. Although Reynard B. Guile might be trying a bit harder to keep hold of the Ninja Assassins after this. In a huge embarrassment Monad tried to throw Hydrax into the ropes in just the second move of the match. Hydrax catches him out with a sunset flip as he rebounds back. Nth Degree knowing Monad is very vulnerable anytime he is being pinned and tried to break the pin up. A swift kick across his path by Daeman foiled that and ensure the Ninjas took the win. It’s not the shortest match of all time but certainly is the shortest one that’s taken place on Centra.
Titan Attack defeated Animen Invasion. The Titans probably hope for greater tests than this on the face of it. However it is easy to forget that Animen Invasion has a much better record than anyone would have expected. Lord Nexus knows he’s got to keep them winning and poised near the top of the tag ranks so that as and when Twin Blood drops the titles they can pounce. Anyway Titan Attack does the necessary but like so many other teams facing Animen Invasion they make hard work of it. There was even a squeaky bum moment when they performed ANIMEN INVASION on Ursa Major. After that Titan Attack gradually improved and a mix of TITAN VICTORY ROLL and FLYING TITAN moves took a toll on Son of Ram with the latter being responsible for beating him.
Tough Guy awarded the win over Mutant by forfeit. No show from Mutant. Even the Terrorists are confused. Krakan is immediately accused of being behind this. He denies any involvement by later saying “why would I want that disgusting beast when I’ve got Grovel”.

CARD 1146 – CENTRA PALLADIUM:
Mayhem defeated Code Enforcer Manslaughter again and this time wins the Centra belt. What a year Manslaughter has been having. This guy is at the peak of his powers. When and if he ever drops this belt Manslaughter has to consider upgrading his sights to the Heavyweight belt. Only trouble is the presence of Pegasus on the FDF which might lead to Commando Sam holding him back. The only blot on his recent record is actually a non-title loss to Mayhem which is what has set this up. This is the first of four title shots that the Gladiator team will receive in this month. Out of those belts this is probably the one the Gladiators are least bothered about. Brute had already let slip that he wouldn’t be at ringside. He sent Spike instead. No such favouritism shown by Commando Sam. He is determined to keep both singles belts in the FDF and was ready to tussle with Spike if needed. However it turns out to be a disaster. Sam stubbornly refuses to help his men unless an illegal act has taken place first. He witnesses nothing along those lines. So when Manslaughter gets into early trouble and is struck with LEAP OF DOOM (+5) he does nothing. Astonishingly Manslaughter musters a kick out. Could be forgiven for thinking things will be alright if he can survive something like that. Mayhem didn’t care if his mighty finisher had been no sold. He knew it would have taken an awful lot out of Manslaughter so he was straight on him with the less risky DANGER ZONE. Gasps were heard among the crowd as it led to the victory. The belt was presented to Mayhem who then disrespectfully swung it around his head much like he would with his chain. Using it to clear everyone from the ring. Manslaughter recovered on the outside and looked like he wanted to get back in there but Sam managed to convince him to leave. Spike was now also in the ring armed with a ball and chain. It was an ominous picture to see Mayhem stood there with the belt and Spike behind him. It made the cover of the Centra’s top wrestling mag (released later that week) with the headline ‘The Gladiators are back!’ Will Manslaughter try to regain the belt or move on? It’s pretty clear that Mayhem is a bogey opponent.
Sniper downs Anaxis in a non-title match. Anaxis is forced into this match. Not that she’d turn down an opportunity to grapple Sniper and maybe by winning here it could lead to another title shot. It’s just the way it’s come about as she has been sold to Krakan for the month. One thing that really irritates her is that Maxine Babe has been assigned to be her ringside companion. She was tempted several times to break her trademark dish over Maxine’s head. Almost got her disqualified a couple of times for unnecessary interference. Then when she needed her most Maxine Babe was nowhere to be seen. Sniper took Anaxis out with a clothesline but Maxine was too busy flirting with some young guys in the crowd to notice.
Blazing Skull too hot for Max Shield. Little rivalry struck up in the universal battle royal at THE MEGA SHOW. Max responsible for eliminating Blazing Skull. Then Blazing later getting revenge by putting a firework into the hero locker room when Max was showering. Max had such a fright that he slipped on a bar of soap and split his head open. Sadly Max failed to get any payback here. After a few minutes back and forth Blazing got the upper hand and unleashed DEATH BY FIRE. Mercifully it was the watered down +3 version of it. Still plenty enough to end Max’s involvement in the match though.
Rebel Empire crushed Desolation Factor. Two teams in very different positions. Rebel Empire are hot and working their way back towards another title shot whilst Desolation Factor are licking their wounds after THE MEGA SHOW. Mandrill has got involved by giving Rebel Empire an ultimatum to win the tag belts again within 6 months. He is frustrated by the Colonizers lack of belt success. Like many top villains before him Mandrill sees belts as symbols of domination and metaphors for conquering. Not sure Nefarus, who is supposed to be on the same team status as Mandrill, will appreciate being given such a demand. His words must of gotten through though as Rebel Empire are pretty devastating here. Specifically Vendetta who just gets a hold of Ruin leaving him in no doubt as to who is starting the match off for Desolation Factor. Vendetta unloads and gets a quick win after THE BIG FALL. The others needn’t of bothered showing up. Vendetta is a man of few words but Trisis caught him for a few words and asked how he felt about things in light of the ultimatum. He just said “don’t care, just wanted to teach that overrated team a lesson and show that we don’t f*** about on the Colonizer team. Twin Blood better watch their backs because we are coming after those belts”.
Disorder X overcame Theatre of Pain. Theatre of Pain still playing a face role. Fans were hoping they could contribute to more disharmony between Mace and Grunge and nudge them closer towards splitting up. Not this time though. Disorder X works together pretty well tonight. They even get Total Disorde right. After a while they got Tragedy cut off. In a very bad sequence for him he was on the end of DECIMATION and when Comedy tried to interfere it got worse. As the ref ushered Comedy away Grunge whacked Tragedy with GUITAR SHOT. Not even a powerhouse like Tragedy was going to survive that.
Blade beats Tortured Soul by DQ. Blade has been tumbling to defeat after defeat. He finally breaks the run with a DQ win. Something he really needed. However he didn’t look much like a winner having had his oesophagus violated numerous times via ROTTING CLAW. It was only because of Maleph starting a needless attack on Blade that denied Tortured Soul the victory.

CARD 1147 – CENTRA PALLADIUM:
Tag champs, Twin Blood, survive the challenge of Malice and Overkill with a DQ win. Every match seems to be a formality for Twin Blood. Tonight they should finally get tested. They’ve had the measure of this iteration of the Gladiators before. However Malice and Overkill look like a different animal now and will surely prove a massive obstacle if their recent win over Desolation Factor on THE MEGA SHOW is anything to go by. There’s a deep sense of forboding before the bell. Their manager, Johnny Rocket, is trash talking on the mic and fatally walks backwards into the imposing figure of Brute. Johnny finds the mic prised from his grip and witnesses it crushed like it’s a foam cup. He loses his footing and scampers backwards to get away. From this point the commentary team was really bigging this up. Telling the viewers that this could be a match of the year contender. That couldn’t have been further from the truth as a really dull match plays out. We get several minutes of neither team getting any momentum. Lots of defensive tags breaking things up which I suppose is Twin Blood’s speciality. The end wasn’t much to write about either as Overkill falls foul of his inferior agility allowing Sleeze to counter an avalanche drop. Sleeze then stuns him with an underhook suplex. Adapted to accommodate Overkill’s huge frame. Ends in a pinning position. Overkill hasn’t got a great pin rating these days so I decided to let Brute come in and salvage things. He plucked Sleeze up and hit him with a Gladiator Piledriver. Maybe the ref could have let it go and make it into a spectacle but there were no guarantees it was going to get much better and rules are rules. Brute’s act was blatant and Centra doesn’t have much time for the bullying Gladiators so the DQ was issued. Even though wrestling is still a relatively new thing to Trisis she is on commentary and already an encyclopaedia of knowledge as she starts to reel off various facts and stats. She comments that this latest successful defence has taken Twin Blood to 44 cards as champs making them amount the most successful of all time. Just 4 more and they will of made a whole game year. There are longer reigns in my fed to chase down but this is an incredible achievement.
Vengeance destroyed Corporal Aegis. With the year almost up it’s a good time to reflect on how Aegis has fared. Although his combat skills were never in question it was always a case of if he could adapt to wrestling. As the hero of Centra he was putting himself in a potentially embarrassing situation which could undermine his authority. It’s fair to say he has taken to it like a duck to water with some key victories. The greatest of which came at GALACTICON. Beating Mandrill one-on-one is still on his bucket list but most goals have been achieved. A win against someone of Vengeance’s calibre would make things even better. Of course Vengeance was licking his lips at the possibility of a big scalp and having seen Thunder fail to beat Aegis earlier this year it was a chance to get one up on him. Significantly Brute doesn’t come out with Vengeance. We know for a fact Brute is present at the venue because he will be managing Malice and Overkill in the main event match. Wonder if it is Vengeance just flat out refusing to be managed. Anyway that’s good news for Aegis. Sadly he probably then wrestles his worst match since the GWFC was formed. Didn’t get into the swing of it all. Perhaps that’s doing Vengeance a disservice though. The sick Gladiator was hungry for blood. First opportunity he was all over Aegis and in no time at all came HELTER SKELTER. Then again with the move. Both times Aegis survives but it doesn’t not herald a courageous comeback as the ferocious punishment continues. Next is a Vengeance Spasm to add another token and then back to HELTER SKELTER. That’s as much as anyone can take and gives Vengeance a dominant win. It’s amazing the impact Aegis losing has on the crowd. He is so popular that the sight of him being roughed up like this actually reduced some fans to tears.
Wraith triumphed over Lance At-Las by count-out. Lance is back. He’s travelled extensively over the last few weeks and seen many incredible sights. However he disturbingly says he took another trip to Antilia and has seen things that have given sleepless nights. He won’t divulge fully other than to say “I have reported into the authorities and have total trust in them to take appropriate actions”. That aside Commando Sam seemed delighted to have him back. He said “I missed you my old friend, I hope you’re ready to beat this traitorous scum and help our friends on the ROC out”. Lance doesn’t quite deliver though. He brushed off his rustiness to wrestle a great match only to find Wraith in outstanding form. Using his watered down mutant powers to good effect and managing to catch Lance unawares with a powerful clothesline right to the back of the head on the outside. Lance plummeted forward right into the ring steps and struck his head hard. Sam tried get him going again but Lance was a dead weight and couldn’t quite beat the count to get back in the ring.
Code Enforcer Euritar defeated Maelstrom. It’s pretty clear that of the two Code Enforcers that Manslaughter has been the stand out performer. Euritar has had to take some tough losses. Fortunately he harbours no resentment or jealously. Well that’s if you listen to Commando Sam. Those in the know suggest Euritar is keen to lose the mask and breakout in his own identity. For now he needs a win to get going again. Maelstrom is the opposition in what will be a little appetiser for the Code Enforcers meeting Cygnus Strikeforce next week. Potential fireworks between the two managers sadly not realised as Mangus is not in attendance. No reason given for that. In a singles capacity Euritar is expected to have way too much for Maelstrom. However two early attempts by Maelstrom ANNIHILATOR EDGE changes that assessment. The finishing move happens five times in all during the remainder. Euritar keeps hanging in there. Eventually his lethargy fades and gets on a decent run of offence to win via HEADS WILL ROLL. The amount of tokens accumulated by both suggests this was close to being a 5* match but it didn’t really feel like one when I was rolling it. The tag battle between the Code Enforcers and Cygnus Strikeforce should be much more feisty.
The SWAT Team get the decision over the Clones by DQ. Both teams come into this off the back of big defeats. Trisis left her commentary post to join at ringside. A sign she might be concerned about the form of the SWAT Team. They’d threatened a big improvement only to recently fall back into old habits. Clearly the Clones were not worried about their own form. They have fun whenever they wrestle. Trouble is it’s always at the expense of others. Trisis had to move fast as she was nearly water bombed by Mad Jester. The SWAT Team moved into action on seeing this. They didn’t do too well though and Warfare was nearly pinned quickly by Defender of the Realm. Rather than go for the kill Defender then took hold of his spear that was propped up against the ring steps. Decided to give Trisis a fright by trying to bore her with it. The Clones laughed as she shrieked. It took Warfare running at them with a chair and Trench with his ramrod to chase them off. The SWAT Team didn’t look happy at how events had unfolded. At least they’d got a DQ win out of it.
The Hellions get the better of Nora Pelf and Taechon. A rematch from THE MEGA SHOW. Nora was much more inclusive of Taechon this time around. They have a good effort and Taechon even had a few pin attempts on Serpentine. They just couldn’t hold their advantage. Nora got picked off by Hunger after suffering ABDOMINAL HUNGER and then getting driven into the mat with DEMONESS DDT.
