Greenville, SC; November 5th, 2014:
A sports journalist and public representative I may be, but that doesn't preclude me from wondering just what is going on in the personal lives of Pure Class Wrestling's roster. It's fact that a company can't the strong talent base PCW enjoys without a certain amount of interpersonal cooperation and conflict. With that said, I've got a fresh coffee and a quota to meet; let's see what's going on as we head through Trauma 163 - All Hallow's Eve to Deadly Intentions V!
Trauma 162 opened to Nathan Saniti trying to reason with Murdoc, promising the ever more disturbing behemoth that he'd do everything in his power to assist Murdoc in bringing down the Black Hand - which seemed to go well until N. Saniti apologized for his inability to prevent the heavy damage sustained by Eira courtesy of the Black Hand's Sadistic and Mr. Showtime at Return to Glory V. The erstwhile Prophet lashed out, relenting just long enough to hear the rest of Nathan's words before abruptly ending the ... well, we can't really call it a conversation, but you know what I mean, right?
Nathan's message didn't seem to help matters, as Murdoc layed waste to the combatants of T162's Main Event, friend and foe alike feeling the impact of a man who seems to have lost all restraint. "Dollface" Kelli Starr's injuries seemed the most severe and remain undisclosed to this respondent; however her representatives have contacted PCW to inform us that while she has taken a leave of absence, she will return at a later date. No clarification was offered as to her final, cryptic message on twitter before the account reverted to merely retweeting official PCW messages. Juicier rumors speculate on the apparent rift between Kelli and N. Saniti, the two entering separately at the show's main event and seeming to lack their usual cooperative spirit.
The Black Hand remains literally hellbent on dismantling Pure Class Wrestling as it currently stands and rearranging it to suit their vision. Their vision having been shared by Sadistic at T162. One might imagine they'd choose a different member to be their mouthpiece given the crowd and roster reactions to Sadistic's words, reactions ranging from righteous anger to shuddering distaste. Murdoc in particular seemed to be targeted towards the end of the manifesto reveal, his failure to assist Eira again being brought to the fore. While I'm just as curious as anyone else, I've respectfully declined PCW management's request that I sit Murdoc down for an interview. Forgive me, dear readers, but someone else is going to have to find out. Providing he doesn't tell us himself, of course. You hold your breath... I'll wait.
Cory "Cory Steel" Steel was joined to the Black Hand at T162 for the Main Event. The hulking, increasingly aggressive man had previously made public his approval and support of Grimm, Sadistic, and Showtime; it remains to be seen whether he will be accepted into the fold or merely used as a meat shield. While Steel's heated rivalry with Alexa Black seems to have been sidelined in preference of currying favor with the Black Hand, Alexa Black herself shows no signs of slowing her campaign of gratuitous violence towards anyone who stands in her way. Her vindictive tendencies may yet render more disciplinary actions than wins, despite her defeat of newcomer @aura. Aura herself remains something of an enigma, only time will tell how this new talent will fare in Pure Class Wrestling. especially with the psychotic Alexa Black standing directly in her path.
While we're speaking of the psychotic, Joka seems to be jockeying for position of "Most Mentally Unstable" at the next Icey's. It's not an award, but just think, it could be! He seems to have no rhyme nor reason for his actions, only to unnerve his opponents. His sights seem to be set on Loki, long time PCW veteran and newfound mentor to the increasingly impressive Gem. In a shocking move, A Ghost in the Wind Frank Foley stripped her of the Underground title in order to "move a prodigal talent to a different circle". The decision was met with a mix of understanding and open criticism. Beyond that, the usual buzz of post-show wrangle and rumor unusually quiet after the most recent airing of Trauma. Gem herself has issued no statements about the decision and her shift within the company, nor about the budding conflict with another PCW veteran and current North American champion: Justin "Stormm" Michaels. With Gem having been named the number one contender for Stormm's Championship belt, I can only see increasing conflicts between the two up through T163 to the Deadly intentions V pay-per-view.
With all the conflicts and camaraderie, drama and debate, we've got some interesting things coming down the pike for Trauma 163. The All Hallow's Eve show (a cool idea for the show before Deadly Intentions - annual, maybe?) is shaping up to light the fuse on the powder keg - ready to blow at Deadly Intentions V!
