Sinclair is challenging for the big boys' title? That's VERY interesting.

I liked the show. Glad TMH got the PG13 belt.

5...

Four months, full of ups and downs. It's hard to believe how much my life has changed in such a short amount of time.

4...

New friends, a fresh start. It may have started off on the wrong foot, but that's all behind me now. Nothing matters to me now but the future

3...

If only Eric and Adrian were still with us. It's just not the same without them around.

2...

Maybe, just maybe 2007 would prove to be everything that 2006 wasn't.

1...

Happy new year. Yeah, it would have been, if not for the conversation I was having on the phone.

Just make sure you've got my money ready for collection in the morning.

Whatever.

Oh don't pout Adam, after all it's the new year. Plenty of new opportunities for you to make me some more money. Hahaha-

I hung up mid laugh, there was no way I could put up with this much longer.

Mother fucker...

Just as he'd said Vinnie's lackey arrived a little after eleven. There were no pleasantries on either side as I silently tossed the envelope at him. He caught it, looking for a little more aggrivation only to find himself looking at a door.

You okay?

I'd decided to sit in my office and stew for a bit, I didn't even realise she'd walked in.

Huh? Oh, yeah...

Ah, I get it...you're hungover right? You were really knocking them back last night.

If she thought that was "knocking them back" she had no idea how much I usually drank.

I'm fine, nothing I can't handle.

I'll get you something for it. While you're waiting, you can look at this and thank me when I get back.

The sheet of paper was filled with a lot of crap that my brain wasn't up to deciphering. There was one part however, that was a little easier to understand.

SJW Heavyweight Title Match

"Hurricane" John Walters© Vs "The Chosen One" Joey Sinclair

A match that has been brewing since the very first show. Both Walters and Sinclair have torn through everyone put in their paths. While the champion has remained quiet, Joey has verbally attacked him and the promotion since day one. After ruining the number one contenders match last month, he issued a challenge to the champion. Walters accepted it, much to everyone's surprise and it was made official as soon as Deck The Halls ended. With a ten year age gap and a five year experience gap, Sinclair's arrogant streak could come to a crashing halt at the hands of the Hurricane.

Arik Cannon showed up at Deck The Halls to accept John Walters' open challenge. While he lost the match, he didn't endear himself to the fans with a post match attack. He's back again this time, but he's not alone. He's joined by Jigsaw and Retail Dragon, in a special three way dance (of Madness~!) attraction match courtesy of Chikara.

Submission Match For The SJW PG13 Title

Teh Mad Haxx0r© Vs. Baxter Basics

Thanks to GVTFO Ranger, Teh Mad Haxx0r was able to become the first PG13 champion. Baxter Basics was the man he pinned. That didn't go down too well with the old school specialist, who demanded a chance to redeem himself. Haxx0r gladly accepted, stating "that lamer couldn't even beat himself". However Baxter had demanded it be wrestled under Submission only rules. Despite having little to no submission experience, Haxx0r maintained the match would still go ahead.

SJW PG13 Number One Contenders Match

"Not So Nice" Guy Angelo Vs. Great Valiant Task Force Omen Ranger

Angelo got a win over Al A. Kazam, and GVTFO Ranger was one of the men not pinned in the PG13 title match. That was enough to get both considered as choices for the number one contender. This will be the first time they've squared off against each other, only adding to the unpredictability of who will get the next shot at whoever the PG13 champion is next month.

Deacon Night Vs. Capn' Bloodbeard

A rivalry that has been flying under the radar of SJW since it's inception. Partners on the first show, Deacon quickly took a shine to Bloodbeard's sword as a means of ending his pitiful life. However Bloodbeard wanted nothing to do with him or his suicidal antics. This caused Night to turn violent and attack him with the very sword he was trying to use. Last month they got a small taste of each other in a tag team match, but this month they go one on one.

I'm all for the Haxx0r title reign. Too bad you can't give prizes or otherwise I'd be shouting Haxx0r Jesuspush!

Walters ain't got shit on me. It's hard to comment seeing as I know some things that are going to be happening, but I figure I'll give up some props for a hell of a diary so far. Not familiar with Arik Cannon's work, so it wasn't a big deal to me, but it was a good match anyway.

I like Angelo, I really do, but we're talking about the Ranger here. Ranger. He's virtually unstoppable.

It's going to be a shock win for Night. The powers of "My Chemical Romance" are with him. Wanker.

And, as a final note, I didn't know that Xero was a Sunderland fan as well. I can hardly believe it! For such an awesome team we deserve a much larger Battleground fan base.

Joey's obviously the star of the promotion, and I defintely want to see him with the big belt at some point, but I think it's a little too early to just give him a win over Walters.

I'm not that big a fan of Cannon, but he's still good enough that he shouldn't be jobbing both of his first two matches. Hopefully Jigsaw and Retail stick around and job to Joey or something.

Submission Match For The SJW PG13 Title

Teh Mad Haxx0r© Vs. Baxter Basics

Baxter's probably my favourite character in the diary at the moment, for some weird reason - I guess I'm too big an old school fan. The rules favour him too, so it'll probably be an excuse to show that Haxxor isn't a throwaway champion. Although I'm hoping he is, to be honest.

[Xero Gravity]

More and more was last month becoming a strange event. We'd went from over 130 people two months ago, to just about 80 last month. I put it down to the new year celebrations, but part of me felt there was something a little more going on than that. If I needed any proof at all, the roughly 185 people I was staring at was more than enough of a reason. I couldn't dwell on it for too long though as we had a show to run.

But something wasn't right...

----------

Al A. Kazam Vs. T-Jizzle Vs. Super Saiyan J

A special dark match thrown on for the crowd who had arrived a little earlier than planned. All three worked their asses off to try and entertain those filing into the rec center, and put on a decent match by our standards. In the end, it fell to Saiyan being stopped from using his finisher again, giving Kazam enough time to hit Jizzle with the Equivoque for the 1, 2, 3!

Deacon Night Vs. Capn' Blackbeard

If this was a bigger promtion with a better budget, a run down of the feud between these two would probably have been played. But it's not, so the fans just ahve to use their imaginations. Blackbeard starts the match off the only way he knows how, with fists flying. Several months of frustration are unleashed on Deacon, with rights and left raining in on him from all directions. The only thing Night could do was cover up and try to escape the ring. However that was never going to be an option as Bloodbeard refused to give him the opportunity. Several slams and suplexes later, the match looked all but over as the pirate called for the Tarred and Feathered. Deacon was scooped up, but rolled out and hooked him into a school boy for the 1, 2, No! Surprised but still mobile, Bloodbeard drove a stiff knee into his suicidal opponent's skull. That did however stop him in his tracks, thanks to the smile on Night's face as he felt the blood trickle out from his nose.

Bloodbeard had no idea how to react as Deacon staggered to his feet, begging for more. Initially he backed away from him, but was forced to strike as Night lunged towards him. Relentlessly he kept coming, forcing Bloodbeard to hit him again and again. Even tossing him out of the ring had little effect, as seconds later he was back begging for more. Still trying to understand what the hell was going on, Bloodbeard left himself open to attack. To everyone's surprise, Deacon took that chance and hit him with a Depressing Reality out of nowhere! He hesitated, staring at the sword he's tried to use so many times over the past several months, but quickly snapped back and went for the cover 1, 2, No! The stalling proved to be enough for Bloodbeard to kick out. Much like at Project Anarchy, Deacon quickly turned violent assaulting his pirate opponent with desperate strikes. Somehow, Capn' was able to fight back and make it to his feet although still taking a beating from an erratic Night. One swing went astray, catching the ref in the face as he tried to seperate them. Deacon didn't waste the opportunity, taking Bloodbeard's sword and pasting him over the head with it! He disposed of the weapon, dropped into a pin fall for the 1, 2, 3!

"Not So Nice" Guy Angelo Vs. Great Valiant Task Force Omen Ranger

Jumping straight into another match, we're treated to a (surprisingly) fast paced match from two contrasting characters. GVTFO Ranger has to upside of being fully backed by the fans, as he takes control of the first exchange. The confidence of almost upending Joey Sinclair two months ago is still running strong as Angelo remains on the back foot for a good four minutes, absorbing everything thrown at him. All signs point to his being nothing more than a throw away squash match, until Angelo cheap shots Ranger as he calls for the Valiant Driver. Snapped back to reality, the make takes a 180 turn with the fans booing Guy as he mercilessly assaults the fan favourite. The match spills out onto the floor as they brawl around the ring with Angelo still firmly in control.

Rolling back in between the ropes, the focus shifts as humiliation seems to be a more appropriate route to take. Grabbing the brightly coloured helmet of GVTFO Ranger, Angelo rips and tears at it under enormous rsistance. The fan get louder and louder as the helmet slowly starts to pull away, revealing Ranger's face. However a swift desperation kick catches Guy in the face, breaking his grip! Taking a moment to readjust himself, Ranger's anger is evident as he flies towards his opponent and barrels him down with a huge spear! Right hands pepper Guy's head as he desperately reaches for the ropes. The ref has no choice but to try and break it up, no matter how badly Ranger wants to continue. The momentary clouded judgment allows Angelo to shove the ref forward, sandwiching the brightly coloured star into the corner. Without hesitation he rolls him up into a school boy, and places both feet on the ropes undetected to steal the 1, 2, 3!

Angelo quickly bails to the outside, grabbing his violin case and hat before high tailing it to the back. GVTFO Ranger is left to plead his case to the ref, who explains he can't call what he didn't see.

Before the Submission match, Baxter Basics heads to the ring to say a few words.

Basics: Pure wrestling...

He pauses, for dramatic effect.

Basics: ...is a dying art form. For months now I have tried to bring back the values of old school wrestling. But as hard as I try, you people just refuse to budge. Why must you be so stubborn? Can't you understand that I am doing this for your own good? In Japan, wrestling is seen as a legitimate sport. In Canada, it is upheld as a proud tradition. In Mexico, people revere wreslting and it's performers as a religion. In America? In America, the one proud culture of wrestling is seen as a damn joke! Who is responsible for this decline? All of you...

Cue the boos, as the crowd finds itself as the subject of an insult.

Basics: I may be a child, but I know real wrestling when I see it. I may not have been around this sport for 20 or 30 years, but I respect it just as much. It pains me to see how you, the fans, have embraced the gimmicky crap that has been produced over the years. Just like a heroin junkie, you just can't say "no". That's all it would take to save wrestling, but you've grown to accept the Americanized trash that's passed off as professional wrestling.

Insulting America too? Patriotism boosts the heat significantly.

Basics: You see what I mean? I offer you the cold, hard truth about wrestling today and the best you can do is boo me? Quite frankly I find it insulting that you prefer ridiculous gimmicks over real wresting. But I still don't find that as insulting as being forced to watch one of those gimmicks parade around with a title belt.

A small "Haxx0r! Haxx0r! Haxx0r!" chants starts up.

Basics: I don't speak techobabble, and I sure as hell don't prance around trying to pander to the lowest common denominator. What I do is wrestle, and tonight I vow to beat that computer freak all over this ring and make him tap out! Then, and only then can the healing process in this wretched promotion begin...

...and the crowd is inexplicably dead. Basics' mat wrestling is techincally sound, and Haxx0r brought the cult appeal. But bring the two together and the crowd just didn't care, not even for the champ. What was set up to be a well paced back and forth match was crippled as Haxx0r and Baxter were forced to wrestle in near silence. To their credit, they tried their best to get the fans interested but to no avail. Baxter worked all over the PG13 champion, not staying to one position for too long. Every once in a while they'd look at the ref to try and find out what the hell to do. The only option they had was to keep going and hope things picked up. Desperation started to set in, and desperate measures were taken. Baxter placed Haxx0r on the top rope, and hit a huge (for two kids) superplex! You could have heard a pin drop as Basics crawled over and covered Haxx0r until he realised it was Submission only. Finally word was sent to end the suffering, and Baxter picked him up for a Basic DDT. The champ managed to wriggle out of it and drag baxter down to the canvas, and apply a fairly sloppy looking STF! Caught in the middle of the ring, Baxter fought to keep the match alive, but was forced to tap out and give Haxx0r his first title defense!

He raised the belt above his head, but still nobody seemed to care.

"The Anarchist" Arik Cannon Vs. Jigsaw Vs. Retail Dragon

Thankfully, the abysmal reception the previous match recieved, wasn't carried over to our Chikara showcase match. Those in attendance booed the hell out of Cannon, after his actions post match against John Walters last month. He doesn't do anyting to try and make up for it, casually resting in one of the corners. Jigsaw and Retail Dragon made their seperate entrances to little fanfare, but that didn't seem to put them off at all. The match itself started with Arik refusing to leave his corner, causing Jigsaw and Dragon to start things off themselves. What little reaction they got during their entrances was washed away as they kicked things off with an impressive back and forth display of counters. A few acrobatic moves thrown in for good measure, and the PG13 title debacle was soon forgotten. As they chain wrestled in the middle of the ring, neither masked man paied much attention to Cannon who was still lounging around in the corner. A Jigsaw irish whip into a quick head scissors take down changed all of that.

Absorbing the slight applause from the crowd, he was blindsided by a stiff running forearm to the back of the head! Finally getting himself involved in the match, Arik continues to assault Jigsaw. He stops this long enough to drill Dragon with a foream of his own, cementing his advantage over the two high fliers. The pace cuts down to slow and methodical, as Cannon remains the only one standing for long periods of time. Each time someone gets up, they're dropped back down with a stiff shot. The fans don't like it one bit, but Arik could care less and continues to do so with a smile on his face. Making the boldest effort to speed the match back up, Jigsaw dives to his feet only to get caught in a belly to belly. Cannon flips him in the air, sending him back first into the turnbuckles! His sacrifice isn't for nothing however, as this gives Retail Dragon the perfect opportunity to dropkick Arik square in the face! The force sends him through the middle rope and to the floor. Being the aerialist that he is, Dragon begins clapping his hands, getting the crowd ready for something big. Cannon rises to his feet unaware, turning just in time to see a red blur vaulting over the top rope! The smoersault plancha wipes both men out, sending the first few rows of fans running for cover in the process.

In the ring, Jigsaw is still recovering from being thrown into the turnbuckles. He manages to get to his feet seeing his two opponents on the outside, and points to the corner. Scaling to the top rope quickly, he waits for the perfect opportunity. It presents itself with both Cannon and Dragon on their feet, causing Jigsaw to leap off the top with a swanton style splash! All three competitors are down on the concrete now, as the fans slowly return to their seats amidst a spattering of "Holy Shit!" chants. Jigsaw is surprisingly up first, dragging Cannon back into the ring. A few light forearm shots are traded, before Cannon lights up Jigsaw's chest with a nasty knife edge chop! He doesn't let up, firing off chop after chop as Jigsaw tries to cover up on the ropes. Whipping him across to the other side, Arik catches him on the rebound with an over head belly to belly suplex! He hops to his feet and taunts the crowd, allowing a still groggy Retail Dragon to go on the offensive. Hooking him out of nowhere, Dragon flips over Arik's head and hits him with a huge Rollback Driver! The impact takes it's toll on him too, as he crawls over and makes a cover 1, 2, No! Cannon barely kicks out!

Dragon staggers to his feet, and is met with a swift kick to the gut by Jigsaw. With Cannon out of the equation for the time being, the two start trading back and forth shots. The punches switch to kicks, which then turn into arm drags. As they both get to their feet, Jigsaw nails a sunset flip out of nowhere 1, 2, No! Dragon throws his weight forward pinning Jigsaw's shoulders to the mat 1, 2, No! The pin fall is broken as Jigsaw pushes Retail Dragon backwards. Both men get to their feet, but Dragon reacts first hitting a spinning heel kick to Jigsaw's face! Dragging himself up to the top rope, he leaps off with a quick Shooting Star Press, but meets nothing but canvas! Jigsaw staggers to his feet, pulling Retail up too. Hooking him in a Jig n' Tonic he hits the move, but can't defend himself from Arik Cannon coming out of nowhere with a Glimmering Warlock! Amidst the boos of the crowd, Cannon rolls Jigsaw onto his back and covers for the 1, 2, 3!

The main event is up next, but not before a few last words.

Joey: If I said I wasn't surprised you accepted my challenge last month, I'd be a liar. Whether or not you choose to believe me or not, my entire motivation is nothing personal.

He pauses, staring at Walters before twisting his face in anger.

Joey: ...at least it wasn't personal, until you decided to bring my family into this you ignorant son of a bitch! Everything I said was out of a desire to be Heavyweight champion. I would have said the exact same things no matter who was in your place. But now? Now the title is only a secondary concern to me. Tonight is all about kicking your ass all over this building, and making you regret everything you said!

Walters removes the title, seemingly unaffected by Sinclair's verbal attack. He hands the belt over to the ref, who shows it to Joey...but he snatches it out of his hand!

Joey: This...this is wasted on a nothing like you! Do you think I care if you're older, or have more experience than me? The simple fact is, none of that matters once the bell rings. This isn't going to be a wrestling match, it's gonna be an all out fight!

Starting to show signs of anger, John steps forward and grabs hold of the belt. Neither man looks willing to relinquish their grip on it, but eventually Joey does and lands a surprise right hand to start the match!

SJW Heavyweight Title Match

"Hurricane" John Walters© Vs "The Chosen One" Joey Sinclair

The first shot rocks Walters surprisingly, allowing Joey to hit several more before he gets shoved back. He proves to be relentless, continuing to attack while John covers up until he's able to push Sinclair away. Despite his vow last month, he seems reluctant to hit back and Joey senses this. However as he charges for another assault he runs straight into a right hand! Walters looks shocked as Joey hits the canvas, out cold. He stares at the ref, looking concerned, and tries to check on Sinclair...and gets rolled into a small package 1, 2, No! Joey springs to his feet, and Walters looks angered that he was suckered into his ploy. Whatever reservations he still held were gone, as they both launched into a back and forth slug fest. The crowd was a little uneasy watching it, as they were still watching a kid getting attacked by a grown man. But that was quickly dispersed as Joey caught Walters with a quick fireman's carry and hooked in a sleeper hold. The technically proficient heavyweight champion took a second or two to react, eventually working his way back to a standing position and hoisting Joey into the air with a quick back body drop!

Clutching his head, Sinclair staggered to his feet, and met a a quick shoulder block sending him back down to the canvas. Grabbing his legs, Walters twisted him effortlessly into a Sharpshooter dead in the middle of the ring. Almost immediately Joey's back arched in pain as he struggled with every ounce of his body to reach the ropes. It proved to be a very costly task, as a good two minutes locked in the hold was how long it took for him to break it. John clearly look surprised by his determination as he dropped a quick elbow and rolled him over for a cover 1, 2, No! Still to close to the ropes, Joey was able to keep himself in the match.

Dragging him back to his feet, Walters tried to whip Sinclair across the ring only to have him collapse in pain. Part of him still felt bad about what he was doing, but quickly remembers how Joey tricked him in the beginning. Bringing him back to his feet, John lifted him onto his shoulders and hit a huge spinning Death Valley Driver! Instead of pinning him, Walters brought him back up and whipped him hard into the corner. Lifting him quickly onto the top rope, he jumped up and hits a quick snap superplex! They both hit the canvas with a hard thud, but Joey was able to roll his body on top of Walters 1, 2, No! The champion had enough to kick out, and slowly made his way back to his feet. As he leant down to drag Sinclair up, he was met with a stiff low blow for his troubles! Some how Joey got back to his feet, and hit the Whole Damn Show out of nowhere! No one could believe it as they both hit the canvas. Boos rained down on the ring as he dragged himself over and made the cover...

ONE!

TWO!

THRE...NO!

Walter's shoulder shot off the canvas a split second before the three count! Joey could barely believe it as he rolled off in despair. That quickly turned to anger as he dragged himself up the ropes and began to stalk the champion again. The wait was agonising, as John slowly made it back to his feet and turned into another Whole Damn Show...No! Sinclair was thrown into thre ropes mid move, and rebounded backwards into a Straightjacket Lungblower! The crowd went nuts as they both hit the canvas again, only this time it was Walters being the one to slowly drag himself over and make the cover...

ONE!

TWO!

THRE...NO!

Nobody can believe it as the start to cheer, only to see that it was only a two count! Walters himself can't believe that wasn't enough to finish it. Staggering back to his feet, he drags Joey into the center of the ring, and hooks in another Sharpshooter! He arches back with everything he's got as Sinclair screams in pain. All 180+ people in the building are begging for him to tap out, and after a full minute he finally does!

Walters releases the hold and rises to his feet triumphantly, as the fans cheer not only him but the effort put in by Joey as well. In a true show of respect, he helps his fallen challenger to his feet and raises his hand to applause from the crowd. Joey looks at John, understanding the better man won...

...AND HITS HIM WITH ANOTHER WHOLE DAMN SHOW!

The crowd turns on him in the blink of an eye as he staggers to his feet hurling abuse at the champion. Grabbing the belt off the canvas, he stares into the gold plate before draping ot over Walters' chest. Rolling out of the ring, he flips off the crowd as he disappears into the back.

January had come and gone. For the most part, my "maybe 2007 will be better" mentality was bang on. Or at least it was right up until my birthday, February 3rd. I'd been standing arguing for a good fifteen minutes now, and it didn't show any signs of ending amicably...

Wait...what?

You heard us, we want more money.

What the hell for this time?

We just don't feel safe working for you.

Don't feel...what are you, FUCKING RETARDED?! We haven't had an incident in months!

That doesn't change our decision Adam, give us more money or we sign the contracts Ring of Honor offered us earlier today.

The little fuckers.

Oh, so that's how it is? Fine, fuck you both! You know damn well we were planning a three way ladder match for One Step Closer. John was ready to step down as champion, and give someone else a shot...and this is how you repay me?

That's just the way it is...

Get the fuck out of my office you little bastards!

They didn't seem to bothered to be honest.

I hope you fucking choke on those contracts!

Wow, it goes to show as much as these people seem to like Haxxor, the fans in the game don't, which ultimately makes the fans in the game much smarter Your matches are getting longer, which spells a bad thing for you. Everyone knows that I should have kicked Walters ass Looks like Cannon could be on par for another shot at the big belt, you know, after I've taken it and all. ROH? Piss on ROH and their stealing ways. SJW>ROH!!

[Xero Gravity]

You okay?

Silly question really, considering someone three miles away would have heard the verbal tirade I threw at Izzy and Deranged before they left.

Eh, I've had better days.

Anything I can get you?

...I can think of a few things...

Nah, I've just got to concentrate and see how I can shuffle around One Step Closer.

So you'd rather be left alone?

Well yeah, but that sounds like you've got a few things to tell me.

She did, and took her cue to sit down.

Well as of two days ago, Hardee's have pulled their sponsorship deal. But luckily I was scouting around ahead of time, and lined up a deal with RF Video to jump straight in.

Wait, you mean "lol, I'll pretend you said 18" RF Video? What do you think think the kids' parents would say?

Oh come on, it's not like we're offering them up to be preyed on by pedophiles. Besides, $124,000 and an opportunity to start taping shows to be sold far outweights the lingering negative stigma.

Eh, I guess you're right. Was there something else?

Oh yeah, just that another promotion bit the dust earlier today.

Damn, which one?

Jersey All Pro...

Shit, the established feds seem to be dropping like flies.

Yeah, but it does lessen the competition even if they're light years away from us at this point.

Well if I can't get this mess sorted out, we're gonna be in trouble ourselves.

She nodded, rising from the chair. I quickly buried my head back into the rewritten planned, and didn't even see here look back and smile before leaving.

Another Promotion Closes Down, Several Veterans Call It A Day.

- Today we recieved word that Jersey All Pro Wrestling has held it's last show. Quietly suffering from financial troubles for several months prior, low ticket sales sealed the long running promotion's fate. They did however go out on a high note, with Rhyno retaining the JAPW Heavyweight title in a triple threat cage match with Low Ki and Jay Lethal. The entire roster came out afterwards as Fat Frank Iadeavia broke the news to the over 800 people in attendance. He thanked them for the near 10 years of support, and recieved a standing ovation.

- The end of line also drew closer for several wrestling personalities this month. Long time wrestling journalist Bill Apter decided on retirement this month, writing his last column on the current state of the WWE for Fighting Spirit. Also stepping away from the ring is Gypsy Joe, most noted for the incident with New Jack back in 2003. At 75 years old, many felt that Joe would die before calling it a day. Lastly, "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan has announced that February 2007 will be his last month in active competition. The WWE have already contacted him about coming back for a month of appearances, but there's no word yet on if he's accepted.

[Xero Gravity]

I'd been up all night, starting the card again from scratch. Suprisingly, everyone was more than happy to pitch in their own ideas to me to use...most of all Joey. I didn't know if it was just him trying to make sure I didn't lose him in the shuffle, but he was a lot more helpful than most.

In the end, I only had one thing left to go through with four people.

So do you all understand what to do? Arik, you'll be out expecting to get another shot that brings out John to respond. Just before the match starts, Joey interrupts and berates the both of you as he tries to get himself in on it too. This brings Vanessa out, to make it a triple threat match.

Do I mention the ladder?

Not straight away, Joey will mention something about how may not be as good, but can take more of a beating. He'll try and get the ladder involved...

...which is when I agree with him, and get one brought out?

Excatly. Hopefully this will make up for the shuffled card, and give us the best title match to date. Any questions?

Nope.

I'm cool too.

Joey?

Yeah, I've got one. How much are you expecting me to take bump wise?

Well I'll leave that up to you. Obviously this is an entirely different thing for you, so don't try and do anything stupid. But if you feel up to taking a bump or two, you'll at least be in safe hands.

He nodded quietly, obviously contemplating what he could possibly do to make sure he kept up his end in the match. One by one they all left to get ready, as I wrote down the last few details on the card.

SJW Heavyweight Title Match

"Hurricane" John Walters© Vs. "The Anarchist" Arik Cannon

Ever the opportunist, Arik Cannon managed to steal victory in the Chikara triple threat match last month. That was enough to get the attention of the SJW champion once again. After the show closed, Cannon made a challenge to Walters for a return match. Having just beaten Joey Sinclair in one of the most dramatic matches SJW has seen, he showed his fighting spirit by accepting without question. The Glimmering Warlock he recieved aftre their last encounter is sure to make this match all the more physical.

Jigsaw Vs. Retail Dragon

After both being on the losing end of the Chikara triple threat match last month, Jigsaw and Retail Dragon return to SJW once more for a singles match. While only here on a part time basis, both men will no doubt be looking to make an impression on the fans.

SJW PG13 Title Match

"Not So Nice" Guy Angelo Vs. Teh Mad Haxx0r©

Cheating to beat GVTFO Ranger, SJW's resident mafioso has quickly dragged himself out of the shuffle and earned a PG13 title match. Haxx0r proved to be a worthy champion, beating Baxter Basics at his own game and making him submit with an STF. The champ will have his work cut out for him as Angelo has proven time and time again that he isn't afraid to break the rules to get what he wants.

Baxter Basics Vs. Capn' Bloodbeard

Nobody knows why Baxter issued the challenge to Bloodbeard, after losing his match last month with Teh Mad Haxx0r. Both will be familiar with each other, having crossed paths before. This time however, there is an unknown motivation behind it.

Deacon Night Vs Super Saiyan J

Night picked up a huge win last month when he pinned his nemesis Capn' Bloodbeard, albeit under shady circumstances. However it wasn't enough for him to break from his eternal dispair, so he threw out an open challenge. Super Saiyan J was more than happy to accept it, hoping to get back onto the main show and into a winning streak.

SJW Heavyweight Title Match

"Hurricane" John Walters© Vs. "The Anarchist" Arik Cannon vs. Joey Sinclair

I think his reign is coming to an end soon, but not this soon. I think you'll bring someone in from the now dead Jersey Pro to beat him

Jigsaw Vs. Retail Dragon

Meh, tossup and Jigsaw wins.

SJW PG13 Title Match

"Not So Nice" Guy Angelo Vs. Teh Mad Haxx0r©

He needs a John Walters reign to establish the title. The only person I could see taking it off him is Joey Sinclair

Baxter Basics Vs. Capn' Bloodbeard

Needs a win.

Deacon Night Vs Super Saiyan J

Gah! He's growing on me!

SJW Heavyweight Title Match

"Hurricane" John Walters© Vs. "The Anarchist" Arik Cannon vs. Joey Sinclair

Safe bet is for Sinclair, but Cannon winning and Sinclair and Walters feuding would be interesting imo.

Jigsaw Vs. Retail Dragon

I am thinking Jigsaw as i am not sure on Retail.

SJW PG13 Title Match

"Not So Nice" Guy Angelo Vs. Teh Mad Haxx0r©

Don't see the champ losing so soon, maybe Angelo getting DQ'ed.

Baxter Basics Vs. Capn' Bloodbeard

I can see Basics having a slight losing streak, even though he is one of my favourite chars.

Deacon Night Vs Super Saiyan J

Just because he is the best character

PS. Brilliant diary...only one so far that has kept my interest for longer than a day....actually i have it bookmarked (Y)

[Draevyn]

SJW Heavyweight Title Match

"Hurricane" John Walters© Vs. "The Anarchist" Arik Cannon vs Joey Sinclair

Come on fuckers, this is me! Are you going to doubt me? God damn, my character is probably going to get his ass beat, but I've gotta vote for myself. Just the way it is. Don't doubt the "CHOSEN ONE"

Jigsaw Vs. Retail Dragon

I've never really seen either of these guys. I've seen one move by Retail, and never seen Jigsaw except in pictures. I'm going with Retail just because the whole gimmick is cool, but for some reason much like the main event, I'm thinking I'm wrong.

SJW PG13 Title Match

"Not So Nice" Guy Angelo Vs. Teh Mad Haxx0r©

Well, I'm pretty sure Haxx0r isn't going to lose his title this quick, and seeing as it's a title match I don't see it ending in a DQ, so I'm going with Haxx0r on this one.

Baxter Basics Vs. Capn' Bloodbeard

I'm going with Bloodbeard with a Disqulification....

Deacon Night Vs Super Saiyan J

I know how much you loathe Saiyan, as well as myself having a soft spot for Deacon as of late, I've got to go with Deacon for the win here. Doesn't matter how, but he's going to take it.
