Monday Night Anarchy
June 29, 2009
Sommet Center – Nashville, Tenn.

0:00-0:05 : In Ring
HWL General Manager, Tim Jacobs, comes out to the ring in a suit and tie with a black briefcase in his hand. Once inside the ring, Jacobs says that “through power and wealth anything is possible.” He opens up the briefcase and says that he has purchased the rights to every single talent in the three main American wresting promotions. He informs the crowd that they will see the best from Ring of Honor… TNA… and the WWE on a weekly basis in the Horizon Wresting League. Jacobs says that tonight is the start of something new in the world of professional wrestling and that he doesn’t plan on following in anyone’s footsteps on his way to making the HWL the most prominent promotion in the country.

He then announces that on July 26th, from the Ford Center in Oklahoma City, HWL will be holding their first-ever pay-per-view event called “Rebellion”. Tonight, he says, participants for titles matches will be determined in two Battle-Royal style matches. He says that every champion he has signed that was holding a title at the time will compete in one battle royal, while the non-champions will face off in the second to see who will compete to be the first-ever HWL Heavyweight Champion! Jacobs then wishes the fans a good evening before leaving the ring.

0:05-0:07 – Commercial Break

0:07-0:17 : Daizee Haze vs. Sara Del Rey
The ladies of the HWL started off the first Anarchy of existence as two of ROH’s finest squared off against each other. Haze and Del Rey went after each other early in this match, sharing multiple near-falls between the two of them. Del Rey almost had the match won when she rolled Haze in an inside cradle as Haze was arguing what she thought to be a slow count. But, Haze was able to recover, taking the fight outside the ring where both women barely made it back into the ring after an eight-count. A bodyslam onto the concrete floor appeared to be what did Del Rey in as Daizee wasted no time in hitting the Mind Trip for the 1-2-3.

Daizee Haze pinned Sara Del Rey with the Mind Trip in 0:09:13.
Rating: *** ¼

Daizee Haze celebrated her victory with the crowd as she made her way up the ramp. Del Rey, slowly getting to her feet nodded her head in acceptance after losing the match.

0:17-0:19 : Commercial Break

0:19-0:24 : Backstage
“The Straight-Edge Superstar” CM Punk is backstage with Alisha Hicks as “Anarchy” returns. Hicks asks Punk how he feels knowing that he’s one of the five men entered into the “Champions” Battle Royal for later in the evening. Punk says that he understands that there’s going to be a lot of competition in that ring later tonight, and that every person in that match has the talent to be HWL Heavyweight Champion. But, Punk says that he’s the only one to have spent time in each one of the promotions that are now under one roof. He says that he has held titles and each of those promotions, so if anyone has that “little bit more” to walk away from Rebellion as Heavyweight Champion… it’s him.

0:24-0:42 : Cryme Tyme vs. Up In Smoke
Cryme Tyme came into this match with a distinct size advantage over their opponents. But, what they had in strength, they gave up in speed making this match as even as it could possibly be. Both Shad Gaspard and JTG worked over Cheech for a good portion of the start of the match, mixing in tags to keep each other fresh. The tide turned when Cheech was able to tag in the fresh Cloudy, who quickly cleared house to a mixed reaction from the crowd. He would keep a good hold of the advantage until JTG was able to overpower him to the outside of the ring where both men came within four seconds of getting counted out. The battle outside the ring went in Cryme Tyme’s favor as JTG hit the Jumping Frontflip Neckbreaker… but only got a two count! Upset, JTG threw the referee outside the ring to the disdain of the crowd, but the lack of officiating allowed Up In Smoke to hit the “Cloudy with a Chance of Cheech” and a pinfall attempt that was broken up by Shad Gaspard. Gaspard and Cloudy found their way onto the concrete floor outside the ring as JTG was able to hit the Front-flip Neckbreaker a second time… this time for the 1-2-3!

0:42-0:44 – Commercial Break

0:44-0:59: In-Ring
“The Olympic Gold Medalist” Kurt Angles comes out to the ring in a finely pressed suit – to a big ovation of boos from the crowd. Entering the ring, Angle starts off saying that CM Punk only thinks he has what it takes to be the first-ever HWL Heavyweight Champion. Angle says that Punk may have been a champion in all three promotions, but that Angle is the only Olympic Gold medalist in the Horizon Wrestling League! Angles says that if anyone has what it takes to be Heavyweight Champion, it’s going to be the man that won gold in the Olympics with a “broken freakin’ neck”!

Angle tries to continue but is interrupted as Austin Aires appears on-stage, with a microphone in-hand. As he walks down the ramp he says that everything Kurt Angles has ever done in the world of wrestling is something to be admired; that it’s something to be looked at as a huge success. Aires says that being the first Olympic wrestler to make it big in “sports entertainment” was something to be proud of… but that it was starting to get old! (Crowd pops) Entering the ring, Aires and Angle come face to face with one another as Aires says that he was the most unlikely Heavyweight Champion Ring of Honor had ever seen… and that at Rebellion, he was going to do the same exact thing.

The two men continue to stare at one another as “The Viper” Randy Orton’s entrance music begins to play. Orton appears in his ring attire and makes his way into the ring before grabbing a microphone and standing between Aires and Angle. Orton says that he and Kurt Angle have battled inside a ring before, and that there’s absolutely no love lost between the two of them. Orton says that his matches with Angle are some of the best he’s ever had during his career. He then turns to Aires and asks him who he is, since Orton has never heard of him. (Crowd boos) Aires becomes infuriated and goes to throw a punch towards Orton, but he gets interrupted by the sound of AJ Styles’ voice.

Appearing on-stage in his ring gear, Styles says that whether they liked it or not, the three men in the ring knew that no debate about who should be Heavyweight Champion is complete without his name being involved. He enters the ring as all four men find a corner of the ring and stare at each other. Styles says that he was Legends Champion for a reason… that he might be the biggest person to ever step foot into the ring, but that he was still a force to be reckoned with. Styles says that he is the one most likely to put his body on the line to ensure that he walks out of the ring with the Heavyweight Title around his waist. Styles then says that he’s been proving people wrong all his life, and that he doesn’t want to wait to do it again. He drops the microphone and attacks Randy Orton as Austin Aires and Kurt Angle brawl on the opposite side of the ring. (BIG crowd pop!) HWL officials rush down to the ring and separate the four men, escorting them each off as Anarchy goes to commercials.

0:59-1:01: Commercial Break

1:01-1:13: Beer Money, Inc. vs. The Colons
TNA and WWE squared off in this one as the two former promotions’ set of tag team champions stepped into the ring for their first match in the HWL. Beer Money came in showing great team work, keeping Carlito and Primo sectioned off from one another for long amounts of time for the beginning of the match, getting themselves a couple near falls. But a quick tag into Carlito turned things around for The Colons in the middle of the match as the sudden change in pace caught the former TNA Tag Team Champions off guard. Trying to take the match to the outside backfired on Robert Roode as he was busted open after being thrown face-first into the ring post! Carlito rolled Roode back into the ring and went for the quick pin, but Roode was able to get his foot on the ropes to break the count. Carlito went for the Backstabber on Roode, but James Storm entered the ring and attacked Carlito from behind, giving Roode time to make the tag. After a bloody Roode knocked Primo off the ring apron, he and Storm hit the DWI for the victory. And, with the victory, Beer Money found themselves in the Tag Team Title Match on July 26th at Rebellion.

Beer Money, Inc. (James Storm and Robert Roode) defeated Carlito and Primo when J. Storm pinned Carlito after the DWI in 0:11:18.
Rating: ***

The crowd booed as Storm and Roode made their way up the ramp. Roode wiped away blood from the cut over his left eye and flung it towards the crowd at ringside before raising his arms in victory. Inside the ring Primo helped Carlito to his feet as “Anarchy” went to commercials.

1:13-1:15: Commercial Break

1:15-1:17: Backstage
Tim Jacobs is seen sitting at his desk inside his arena office. He says that tonight has already been shaping up to be a great night… and a great way to begin the path to Rebellion. Jacobs says that the road to “Rebellion” will get clearer next week as there will be three matches to determine the card for July 26th. Jacobs announces that Daizee Haze, Sara Del Rey and Tara will face off in a Triple Threat Match to determine one-half of the Women’s Title Match… and that Angelina Love, Maryse and Melina will face off in the same type of match to determine the second half. Also, he says, a Fatal Four Way Elimination Match will take place to determine what team will face Beer Money for the Tag Team Titles at “Rebellion”. The owner then says that he personally can’t wait to see who will face off for the Heavyweight Title at the first-ever HWL pay-per-view.

1:17-1:54: 7-Man Battle Royal
Cody Deaner and Tyler Black started things off and went after each other for the first 90 seconds until Evan Bourne entered the ring. Bourne didn’t take long – waiting 23 seconds – to throw Deaner out first. Bourne and Black continued their batted for close to a minute until Bourne was tossed over the top rope as well. Tyler Black held his own inside the ring eliminating Brent Albright and Tyson Kidd each within a minute of their entering the ring! That all changed as Matt Morgan and Kenny Omega were the final two to enter the ring. The three of them of battled for nearly 30 minutes! The smaller Omega and Black doubled-up on Morgan throughout the rest of the match, managing to get him outside of the ring… but never over the top rope. All the near misses finally caught up with the duo as Morgan became more and more focused during the later part of the match, eliminating both men less then a minute apart to earn himself a spot in the Heavyweight Title Match at “Rebellion”.

Matt Morgan won a 7-man Royal Rumble:
x Deaner and T. Black started out.

The four former champions who brawled in the ring earlier in the show couldn’t wait to step into the ring to see who would be facing Matt Morgan at “Rebellion” for the Heavyweight Title. This was a fierce battle as a lot of anger carried over from the middle of the show. However, it was CM Punk – who entered third – who survived for nearly 14 minutes, throwing out Randy Orton, Kurt Angle and Austin Aires to win the match and earn a main event spot on July 26!

They are interrupted as “The Straight-Edge Superstar” CM Punk appears on-stage – in street clothes – to a huge roar of cheers from the crowd. Punk grabs a microphone inside the ring and says how happy he is that he was able to outlast the four other men that were in the Battle Royal last; and proud that he will be main eventing the first-ever HWL pay-per-view. But, he says that he’s not out here to talk about his accomplishment from last week… that he only wants one thing. Punk says he wants Matt Morgan to come down to the ring.
<o></o>
Matt Morgan wastes no time in coming down to the ring – in his ring attire – and standing across from Punk. Punk says he wants to know what Morgan’s problem is. Morgan forcefully grabs the microphone from Punk’s hand getting a loud roar of boos from the crowd. Morgan says that Punk is worried about the wrong thing. He wonders why Punk thinks the problem is with him, personally. Morgan says that he has the same problem he would have with any of the other former champions who won the battle royal last week. Morgan says that the only problem he has is that Punk stands in his way of becoming Heavyweight Champion. Morgan says that the only way that problem will go away is if he leaves “Rebellion” with the title. Punk then forcefully grabs the microphone from Morgan and says that he’s not going to budge for anyone. (Crowd pops) Punk then drops the microphone and the two men begin to brawl in the center of the ring. (Huge crowd pop) Punk knocks Morgan down with a stiff right hand. He picks up Morgan and whips him into the ropes, but Morgan grabs a hold of them and slides out of the ring. He walks up the ramp, holding the back of his head, as Punk begs him to get back into the ring. They stare at each other as “Anarchy” goes to commercials.

He says that it’s guaranteed to be a fight, and to him, that’s all that really counts.
<o></o>
James Storm then says he agrees with Roode, but adds that he’s just a Tennessee Redneck (small crowd pop), and come “Rebellion” all he’ll be looking for is a “good ole fight”.

The four remaining teams hoping to get the chance to move on to “Rebellion” faced off tonight in what was the most exciting match of the evening, given the crowd’s response. For nearly 90 minutes, these four teams battled each other; never wanting to lose their chance at the HWL Tag Team Titles. It took just over an hour for the first elimination to happen when JTG eliminated Up In Smoke. But, quickly after that – either due to exhaustion or Cryme Tyme getting on a roll – the eliminations came faster. The match ended when Consequences Creed – frustrated with his team’s showing in the match – was disqualified after not releasing a chokehold before the five-count.

Melina was quickly eliminated by disqualification – in less then a minute – when she wouldn’t release a choke hold, much like Consequences Creed earlier tonight. But, that cleared the ring for what turned out to be a very impressive match between Love and Maryse that went on for nearly 20 minutes! Maryse picked up the win after hitting a DDT for the <st1:date year="2003" day="2" month="1">1-2-3</st1:date>.

HWL Monday Night Anarchy
July 20, 2009
American Airlines Center - Dallas, TX

[Q1]
A video package plays, showing highlights from last week's main event as AJ Styles ran down to the ring and attacked Randy Orton while he stood inside the ring after throwing Jon Davis to the floor. The video then shows Orton furiously staring at Styles as he made his way through the crowd. He then turns and stalks <st1:city><st1>Davis</st1></st1:city> before hitting the RKO before leaving the ring himself.

The video then shows the footage of CM Punk walking away after attacking HWL Heavyweight Champion Matt Morgan with a steel pipe. The video ended as Morgan came out to the ring with the Heavyweight Title draped over his shoulder and small bandage on his forehead. He said that in six days, he'll be facing CM Punk with the title on the line; and that he's a little surprised by the tactics Punk has been taking as of lately to get the upper hand heading into Rebellion. He asked why the people in <st1:city><st1>Dallas</st1></st1:city> cheered for Punk because he is a hypocrite. Morgan said that Punk loves to call himself the "Straight-Edge Superstar" and that he lives by the montra of "no drugs... no drinking".

But, Morgan said that beside the fact that Punk had to use a steel pipe to get his message across last week, that Morgan had information that would ultimately destroy Punk's reputation as a clean role model for the children in the HWL audience. He called Punk, saying that if he didn't meet him in the ring, Punk's dark side would be revealed in front of the world...

After a few minutes, CM Punk's music started as the "Straight-Edge Superstar" made his way down to the ring with a tremendous ovation from the crowd. Punk said that he came down to the ring, not to hide whatever information Morgan had, but to finish the job he started last week. Morgan said that if Punk did finish the job tonight, it'd be the biggest mistake of his career, because he wouldn't get the chance to take the title away from Morgan Sunday night at Rebellion. Morgan said that he still had six days to get the cobwebs out of his head and focus on beating Punk inside the ring. He also said that Punk had his word that nothing would happen before REBELLION and offered his hand. Relunctantly, Punk shook Morgan's hand - much to the dismay of the Dallas crowd - before turning to exit the ring. As Punk went through the ropes, Morgan smashed him in the back of the head with the Heavyweight Title sending Punk crashing to the concrete at ringside! The crowd boos as Morgan stands in the ring, holding the title into the air.

Monday Night Anarchy
July 27, 2009
BOK Center – Tulsa, OK

[0:00-0:02]: A video package is shown, highlighting the events from “Rebellion” last night. Clips include the X-Title ladder match, Tag Team Title Match, and Matt Morgan winning the Heavyweight Title.

[0:02-0:17]: Greg Daniels and Chris Michaels welcome everyone to the brand new BOK Center in Tulsa, 24 hours after the first-ever HWL pay-per-view: “Rebellion”. They announce that tonight, the new Tag Team Champions – Beer Money, Inc. – will be facing the Dark City Fight Club in a non-title match.

“The Blueprint” Matt Morgan appears on-stage with the Heavyweight Title draped over his shoulder. (Crowd boos) He makes his way down to the ring in a pair of blue jeans and an “Affliction” T-shirt. Inside the ring, he grabs a microphone and says that there’s a reason he’s called “The Blueprint”; that he is what wrestling promotions should be modeled after. He says that other wrestlers dream to, one day, be at the same level he is. He says that he proved he deserves the Heavyweight Title after “dismantling” CM Punk… and that soon, he has plans to dismantle the entire HWL roster.

Morgan is stopped as AJ Styles appears on-stage (crowd cheers). Styles says that Morgan might call himself “The Blueprint”, but that he doesn’t know anyone who would want to look up to Morgan. Styles says that, for sure, he doesn’t dream to aspire to be like Morgan, because Styles is “Phenomenal”, and that he doesn’t need to be like anyone else in the HWL (crowd cheers). Morgan says that he’d be “more than happy” to prove AJ wrong, begging Styles to join him in the ring (crowd cheers). Styles makes his way to the ring and gets into a stare-down with Morgan (crowd cheers).

The eventual shoving match is broken up as Randy Orton appears on-stage, in street clothes, to a roar of boos from the crowd. Orton says that Morgan can be the “Blueprint” and Styles can be “Phenomenal”… but, there’s only one “Legend Killer”. Orton says that everyone in the arena knows what he was able to do in his career; third-generation superstar and one of the top names in World Wrestling Entertainment before his contract was bought out. Orton says that he knows the real “truth” and that if anyone deserves a shot at the title, it’s him. But, he says that he – unlike Styles – knows that there’s something more important to worry about tonight. Orton says that he and Styles will be facing each other in a no-disqualification match; a bit of a rematch from last night at “Rebellion”. Before leaving the stage, Orton warns Styles to not get ahead of himself, because tonight, he has to get past “The Viper”.

Angelina is seen in a white tank top, a plaid skirt with black fishnets, and wrestling boots. Greg Daniels and Chris Michaels ask why they are coming out to the ring together, as they enter the ring; Love grabbing a microphone. Angelina says that she has a “special surprise” for Maryse and the rest of the HWL. A video begins to play on the big screen above the stage, showing Angelina Love attacking Tara backstage at “Rebellion” (crowd boos). The video ends as Maryse high-fives Angelina. Maryse then take the microphone and says that Angelina was just doing Tara a favor because she knew that Maryse would have done the same thing to Tara had she actually gone on to fight her.

This brings out Tara, in her wrestling gear, who clears the ring as she enters; Angelina and Maryse making their way to the broadcast table with Greg and Chris. Tara stares the two women down as she waits for her opponent…

Storms says that the crowd can boo all they damn well want to, but that it wouldn’t change the fact that he and Robert Roode are the best tag team in the Horizon Wrestling League. (Crowd boos louder) Storm says that last night at Rebellion, they took down the team that everyone in Tulsa wanted to win the titles… and, now, they were looking for a new tag team to wipe the canvas with.

Storm then passed the microphone to Robert Roode who says that he doesn’t care whether the crowd likes them or not; but, that they can never deny the fact that they are the HWL Tag Team Champions. Roode says that the belts around their waists mean they are the best tag team the HWL has to offer, and no team has been able to beat them yet…

They are interrupted as Jay Lethal and Consequences Creed make their way on-stage, in street clothes, to a mixed reaction from the crowd. Lethal says that Beer Money can run their mouths all they want to, and it’s OK because they just won the Tag Team Titles. But, Lethal says, they didn’t beat Lethal and Creed for the belts, so it’s “stupid” to think that Beer Money is the best team in the HWL. Lethal says that he and Creed would be more then happy to prove the new Tag Team Champions wrong at “Turning Point on August 23rd.

Storm grabbed the microphone from Roode and said that Beer Money never backs down from a challenge, and that Lethal Consequences were getting their match at “Turning Point”. “Anarchy” then goes to commercials as the two teams stare at each other across the arena.

After the bell sounded, Heavyweight Champion Matt Morgan stared at Orton in disbelief as Styles was tended to by the official.

Card Rating: ** 1/2

Match Observations:
Upset with his partner's failure to defeat Kory Chavis tonight, CLOUDY walked out of Omaha, claiming that he was moving on to find a better partner. Infuriated by his partner's decision, Cheech has demanded a rematch against Chavis next week on "Anarchy".

Due to the "uncalled for" attack by Cody Deaner on Brent Albright tonight, HWL Commissioner Tim Jacobs has announced that they will face off against each other on August 23rd at "Turning Point". After the match, Albright said that Deaner should "pack up his trailer and run, because [i] am coming after [you]."

Also announced for next week's show will be a tag team match between the teams of Tara/Melina and Angelina Love/Maryse. And, also, sources are saying that Tara will finally choose her opponent for the Womens Title next week, as well.

Another huge match has been signed for next week as new #1 Contenders for the Tag Team Titles will be determined in a Triple Threat Elimination Match. Tim Jacobs has said that if Consequences Creed and Evan Bourne win, that Jay Lethal MUST be released before "Turning Point".

And, it has officially been announced that the HWL Heavyweight Title will be decided in a Triple Threat Match at "Turning Point" as AJ Styles earned his spot in the main event, thanks in part to Randy Orton's interference tonight.
