Platinum Championship Wrestling--February 1, 2014--Porterdale,GA

This show was what I'd call the calm before the proverbial storm.  It was good, and it was the build for the return of Stephen Platinum on February 15th where huge things will happen.  The crowd was composed of only the diehards. It's possible that the weather from earlier in the week kept others away, but there were 56 people in The Main Event for PCW action.

Match 1: William Huckaby (w/Shawn Adams) vs. Joe Black
Winner: Joe Black

The match began with grappling, and William Huckaby attempted to pin Joe Black by rolling him up.  Black put Huckaby in a side headlock, but Huckaby rolled out.  Black elbowed Huckaby in the face and continued working the head.  Black attempted a submission where he wrapped his entire body around Huckaby, but it ended in a rope break.  Black slid out of the ring as Huckaby jumped back in.  Huckaby rolled outside.  Black jumped out of the ring. He did a tornado DDT through the second rope that knocked Huckaby to the floor.  Huckaby powerbombed Black on the apron, there was a pin attempt, but Black kicked out at 2. Huckaby elbowed Black in the shoulders then followed with a backbreaker.  Black punched Huckaby in the jaw.  Huckaby answered with a spinebuster to Black.  Huckaby slammed Black's head into the aprong then chopped him in the chest several times outside the ring.  Huckaby slammed Black's head into the ringpost. Huckaby tried to pin Black, but the referee caught him trying to put his feet on the rope for leverage.  Shawn Adams distracted the referee, and Joe Black began arguing with Adams.  Adams meant to strike Black, but Black got out of the way and Adams struck Huckaby.  Black pinned Huckaby in the confusion.

Adams and Huckaby argued over their miscommunication while Joe Black took a bow and said "Hey, Huckaby, maybe next time."  Shawn Adams asked for some competition of his own.


Match 2: Sugar Shane vs. Shawn Adams
Winner: Shawn Adams
Quasi Mandisco came to the ring.  "William Huckaby, Shawn Adams, Do you see this?  This is the mask of Supernatural, one of the fan favorites.  We got rid of Supernatural.  If you want to come back to Porterdale, then leave the ring.  This man is a member of the baddest group in professional wrestling.  He is God's gift to wrestling."

Anyone who wrestles one of Quasi Mandisco's goons instantly has a one match face turn, as Quasi now holds the title of most hated man in Porterdale.  The crowd was clearly behind Adams for this contest.

Shawn Adams dominated the match early on, but Sugar Shane quickly got control as he cornered Adams. Quasi choked Adams in the corner while the referee was distracted trying to keep William Huckaby from interfering in the match.  Shane thumbed Adams in the eye, and while the referee dealt with that Quasi interfered again.  Shane attempted a pin, but Adams kicked out.  Shane did a neckbreaker, then unsuccessfully attempted another pin.  Adams hit Shane with a couple of clotheslines.  Huckaby clocked Shane while the referee argued with Quasi.  Adams capitalized and won the match.  Quasi pitched a fit all the way up the stairs because Sugar Shane was beaten at his own game.

Jeff G. Bailey sang the praises of Chip Day.  He noted that he and Chip added a special song of celebration and that they were trying to help us escape our boring lives.  "You've no idea what is offered to you because you're too stupid to realize you've got the opportunity to be part of something great."  Bailey went on for a while, and the crowd grew rabid at his ravings.  He said he'd heard Platinum was in the building, and Def Leppard's Rock of Ages played, but instead of Stephen Platinum we were graced with Chip Day dressed in Platinum's trademark green track jacket.  Chip Day said that he, not Stephen Platinum, was the true life force of PCW.

Match 3 : Warhorse vs. Sylar Cross
Winner: Sylar Cross.

Sylar Cross dropkicked the Warhorse and pounded him in the face.  Cross followed this with a standing suplex and a huge forearm to the head of the Warhorse.  Cross hit the Warhorse three times, and the Warhorse was down in the corner.  Cross buttslammed Warhorse in the face. Cross picked Warhorse up, slammed him into the canvas, and it was over. Sylar continued his assault by twisting the Warhorse like a pretzel into his version of a lion tamer.

Match 4: Bobby Moore(w/Miss Rachel)  vs. Dynomite Soul
Winner: Dynomite Soul

Rachel spoke about February 15th.  "Stephen Platinum's been crowing a lot lately on his little vanity trip. He's taking time from those hardworking people in the back playing wrestler.  Steve, I hope you realize what happens here tonight is only a taste of what happens to you when you face Shane Marx on the 15th.

The match started on the mat.  Dynomite Soul elbowed Bobby Moore and got Moore back down.  Moore countered and put Dynomite into a headscissors, but Dynomite broke it.  Dynomite seized control of the match, but at the 5 minute mark, Moore regained the upper hand.  The referee argued with Moore while Rachel assaulted Dynomite outside the ring.  Moore stomped Dynomite's head.  Moore kicked Dynomite, then spun a forearm into Dynomite's chest.  Moore then did a neckbreaker and attempted to pin Dynomite.

Dynomite went to the top rope and landed an elbow but did not manage the pin.  Dynomite punched Moore in the face, but Rachel broke up the next pin attempt.  Dynomite argued with Rachel while Moore got his "special" elbow pad. It made no difference. Dynomite Soul pinned Bobby Moore and got the win.

Match 5: De La Vega vs. Adrian Armour
Winner: Adrian Armour

De La Vega said that last time Adrian Armour cheated and grabbed his tights. He wanted him to come out and face him like a "Grown Ass Man".  Armour circled the ring, grabbed the black chair, sat outside the ring in the chair, and didn't enter the ring until the 9 count.  Armour got back in the ring for one second, then got out and argued with fans.  Vega followed.  Vega punched Armour in the face.  Once back in the ring Vega landed a cross body onto Armour.  The referee kept Vega from following Armour outside the ring.  Armour returned to the ring, and Vega hit him with shots to the midsection.  Armour knocked Vega down and tried to pin him, but Vega kicked out.  He tried to make him submit, but Vega broke the hold.  Armour kicked Vega and stomped his face.  Armour tried to put Vega out with a sleeper hold but Vega stayed in it.  Vega punched Armour.

Jeff G. Bailey said "Don't you turn our music down. Tell all your friends how Shane Marx will bury Stephen Platinum in the ring, and that stupid banner will come off the wall forever. "(He referred to the PCW Banner over the commentary table). The fans continued to yell at Jeff G. Bailey, and it seemed they were interested in arguing for the rest of the evening. He yelled into the microphone so loud at this point that it sounded like "rah rah rah rah". Still, the crowd continued to throw their insults at Day's win and Bailey's comments.

Chip Day and Sylar Cross are set to take on the Washington Bullets at PCW's next show on February 15th. The main event of the next show will be Stephen Platinum vs. Shane Marx in Stephen Platinum's last in-ring appearance.
