DEFIANCE Wrestle-Plex, New Orleans, Louisiana (seats 4,000)
TRIPP WISE vs. "WINGMAN" TITUS CAMPBELL
DDK:
Welcome to UNCUT! Coming off a HUGE episode of DEFtv 200, we kick off the action with New Orleans’ favorite sons, the Gulf Coast Connection: Wingman Titus Campbell goes one-on-one with “The Wise Ass” Tripp Wise!
Lance:
The Gulf Coast Connection are looking to follow up on a win a few weeks ago against The Dunson Clan with Campbell in singles action! This match is coming up right now! Let’s go right to ringside to kick off the in-ring action!
The opening bell sounds as Darren Quimbey gets ready to call the action.
Darren Quimbey:
The following singles match is your opening contest of UNCUT and is set for one fall! Introducing first…
♫ “The Saints" by Andy Mineo w/KB and Trip Lee ♫
The trio make their way out from the back to a nice pop from the crowd! Crescent City Kid is out first and then behind him comes “Wingman” Titus Campbell is out next in a silver themed Mardi-Gras hat and sunglasses with lights! Finally, out comes Theodore Cain! The Gulf Coast Connection take a moment to pose and pump up the crowd, soaking in their very respectable response from the Minnesota Faithful!
Darren Quimbey:
And his opponent, from New Orleans, Louisiana… being accompanied by Theodore Cain and Crescent City Kid, weighing in at 271 pounds… "WINGMAN" TITUS CAMPBELL!
With his cohorts welcoming him to the ring, Campbell raises his hands in the air and throws his silver colored Mardi Gras hat into the crowd! Theodore Cain and Crescent City Kid are in the corner of Campbell cheering him on. He reaches through the ropes and high-fives his best friends at ringside before his music cuts and that of his opponent begins to play…
♫ “In One Ear” by Cage The Elephant ♫
Out from the back comes a man now wearing black trunks, knee pads and boots… oh, along with a sparkling light blue bow-tie and collar, not to mention a sparkling light blue vest with tux tails hanging off the back! He carefully poses to the side on the ramp and has a microphone in hand as Quimbey announces his arrival.
Darren Quimbey:
And his opponent… from Tacoma, Washington, weighing in at 231 pounds… "THE WISE ASS" TRIPP WISE!
Tripp Wise looks out to the NOLA Faithful and motions for his music to be cut as he speaks.
Tripp Wise:
New Orleans… who wants to start a chant? WHO DAT!
WHO DAT?!
Tripp Wise:
WHO DAT BIG DUMBASS GONNA GET WHOOPED BY WISE?!
BOOOOOOOOO!
The Wise Ass looks at Titus Campbell in the ring.
Tripp Wise:
It’s a joke, guys, take it easy. All right, all right, all right. I got one more for you guys. You’re gonna pee your pants about as hard as I did when I heard this joke earlier today. You ready? I’m about to tell you all a great joke.
He rolls under the ropes and then stands up.
Tripp Wise:
Titus Campbell. That’s the joke.
That gets more jeers as Tripp hands off the microphone… then when he turns around, he gets CLOBBERED with a big clothesline from The Wingman! Rex Knox decides to start the match right then and there!
DING DING
Lance:
I guess the joke’s on Tripp Wise right now, isn’t it, Darren?
DDK:
Sure is! Titus Campbell is taking offense to that! He’s got a hold of Wise by the hair! Where's he gonna take him?
The big powerhouse of The Gulf Coast Connection gets cheers from The Faithful as he picks up Wise.
Titus Campbell:
Here’s a joke, my man. How do you make a Wise Ass Fly?
He then BIELS him halfway across the ring and sends The Wise Ass crashing into the canvas!
Titus Campbell:
Like THAT!
Wise hobbles around the ring and tries to get back on his feet, only for a big clothesline from Titus Campbell knocks him over the top rope and sends him spilling out to the floor below! Titus takes in the applause!
DDK:
Wise’s actions have already come back to bite him! The Gulf Coast Connection are always so popular especially when DEFIANCE has its shows from home base here in NOLA!
CCK and Theodore Cain watch as Wise hobbles around holding his back in pain outside the ring. When he turns around and sees Titus Campbell coming out of the ring after him, he hightails it outside the ring as Titus gives chase. Wise runs right through Cain and the Crescent City Kid and then runs a half circle around the ring with Titus still behind him.
DDK:
Wise back in the ring! He’s trying to create some distance… No! Titus was trying to climb back into the ring and Wise just nailed him full on with that basement dropkick!
Lance:
Clever move by Wise to sucker him in like that.
Titus is holding his forehead in pain after being struck by the dropkick. Wise finally has the vertical advantage with his larger opponent now being grounded. Near the ropes, Titus has the boots put to him while he’s grounded! Wise continues to keep up on the attack by running to the ropes and coming back with a baseball slide dropkick that knocks Titus Campbell out to the floor!
DDK:
Wise now back on the offensive, then goes outside to the ring apron. Where’s he going?
The PUN-isher readies himself on the ring apron and then charges off the apron with a running hip attack that catches Titus unexpected in the face and knocks him to the floor again! The Faithful boo the comedian-slash-wrestler as he hops up to his feet and pats his own posterior.
Tripp Wise:
Now THAT’S a bad ass!
Lance:
How’s he so loud?
DDK:
I have no idea. But Wise has to get him back in the ring! He put up a good fight a few weeks ago against Punch Drunk Purcell for the BRAZEN Onslaught Title and this would be a good rebound win if he could pull this off!
Titus tries to get back under the bottom rope and Tripp Wise pushes him inside the ring. As Titus tries to recover, Wise goes to the top rope quickly and then takes flight with a flying seated senton!
DDK:
Flying seated senton off the top rope! Can Wise get the win?!
ONE!
TWO!
NO!
The Wingman kicks out of the cover and Wise doesn’t look pleased with Rex Knox’s count!
DDK:
Despite how this match started, Wise has turned things around really quick! Those flying hip attacks he likes to use are so unexpected!
Lance:
And look at Wise! He’s got The Wingman on the ropes!
The Wingman starts to stand when The Wise Ass comes off the ropes and hits a flying uppercut! He gets up to his knee and then gestures to the camera.
Tripp Wise:
Uppercut… It… Out!
Wise gets up and then gets ready to go for the end of things. He grabs Titus Campbell by the side of his neck.
DDK:
The Dave Coulier Special hits, but Is Titus Campbell about to get struck with Have A Nice Tripp?
He grabs him by the neck and then tries to take him down with a move. He grabs a hand on the ropes and blocks the move, sending Tripp Wise the only man to take the trip(p)!
Lance:
No! No! Titus Campbell sees it coming and uses his power to hang on the ropes! Now Titus has a chance!
The Wingman stands on his own two feet again as Tripp Wise holds the back of his neck. He tries to hobble up, but Titus charges and lands a big clothesline off the ropes to take him down! The Wingman gets back up and waits on Wise to stand a second time before knocking him down with a back elbow this time around!
DDK:
He’s fighting back now! He’s got Titus on the ropes… BACK BODY DROP!
Wise is taken for the ride when he’s tossed into a corner and bounces right back out into a big back body drop that sends him into the house lights! After the crash landing, Wise thrashes around in pain as Titus picks him up and hits a body slam! He points to the nearby corner and then holds his arms out like a plane! He goes near the ropes and then climbs slowly to the second rope. With Wise grounded, The Wingman dives off the middle rope and hits a huge diving headbutt off the middle rope!
DDK:
Take Flight! Campbell catches him with the Take Flight headbutt!
Titus then grabs him by the arms and then looks out to the crowd in all directions! CCK and Cain cheer on their buddy as Wise gets picked up vertical and then sent CRASHING down to the canvas, courtesy of… The Hook-up!
Lance:
The Hook-up! That’s it! It’s done!
Titus shoves Wise into the cover and the fans count along with him!
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
DING DING DING
♫ “The Saints" by Andy Mineo w/KB and Trip Lee ♫
Darren Quimbey:
Here is your winner of the match… WINGMAN TITUS CAMPBELL!
Titus gets his arms raised by Rex Knox and then leaves the ring to celebrate with Theodore Cain and Crescent City Kid! After he takes his leave, they start handing out beads when…
Black.
DDK:
I was just gonna say there’s a hard-fought win for Titus Campbell, but… what’s up with the lights?
Lance:
Hey! Darren! Check out the DEFIAtron!
All eyes are on static on the DEFIAtron followed shortly by one word in the darkness…
MURDER
DDK:
That word… who is this?
The word disappears as quickly as it appeared and within seconds, everything is normal again. The buzz in the arena seems to be a mix of surprise and confusion. Campbell, Cain and Crescent City Kid all stand on the middle of the ramp, confused.
Lance:
It turns out that there weren’t enough surprises at DEFtv 200! We’re getting one tonight! What was the meaning of that?
DDK:
I have no clue, but we’ll have to see if anything becomes of this. We’ll take a quick break and we’ve got more action coming up on tonight’s show!
LORD SEWELL vs. NATHAN CROSS
DDK:
Up next, we have more action on the show when Lord Sewell of Gentlemen’s Agreement goes one-on-one with BRAZEN star, Nathan Cross!
Lance:
Nathan Cross is a former BRAZEN Star Cup holder, but tonight, he takes on a former BRAZEN Onslaught Champion in Lord Sewell, who will no doubt have the rest of Gentlemen’s Agreement at ringside!
The camera cuts to ringside for the next match with Darren Quimbey about to do the announcements.
Darren Quimbey:
The following singles match is set for one fall! Introducing first…
♫ “Land of Hope and Glory” ♫
The theme plays and out walks Lord Sewell, wearing a red overcoat with yellow epaulets, while being applauded by his longtime tag partner Oliver Tarquin Monroe, who is wearing a dark gray sleeveless coat over a well-tailored shirt and tie, which fits snugly to expose his muscular frame. Behind the two men walks the now-christened Earl Roberts, the former Southern brawler, not resorting to wearing a red button-up coat with a white hat ala the British Royal Guard.
Darren Quimbey:
Being accompanied by Oliver Tarquin Monroe and “The Royal Guard” Earl Roberts, representing Gentlemen’s Agreement… from Long Melford, England, weighing in at 234 pounds…. He will be addressed as Viscount Vice Admiral Ernest Sewell… but you may call him… LORD SEWELL!
Sewell is now in the ring and removes his jacket before carefully and neatly folding it, then handing it over to Oliver Tarquin Monroe. Meanwhile, in the ring, the camera cuts to the young, tall athletic kid from BRAZEN.
Darren Quimbey:
And his opponent… already in the ring, from Costa Mesa, California, weighing in at 240 pounds… NATHAN CROSS!
Cross throws up his hands and takes in polite cheers from the NOLA audience. Once he gets done with playing up for the crowd, he turns and poses as referee Jonny Fastcountini calls for the bell.
DING DING
Lord Sewell looks ready for a lock-up, but before he is able to do anything more, Oliver Tarquin Monroe climbs onto the apron.
OTM:
Mister Cross… Your mother and I engaged in sexual congress before this contest!
Cross gives him a look of “tf you just say?” that is suddenly interrupted by a searing pain in his leg, courtesy of a chop block from Lord Sewell! The Faithful jeer The Elder Technician for his cheap ploy while Oliver Tarquin Monroe leaps off the apron and celebrates with “Royal Guard” Earl Roberts stands by!
DDK:
Cheap tactics already underway by Lord Sewell! He’s pretty confident having the numbers advantage!
Lance:
Gentlemen’s Agreement are a wonderful team, but Lord Sewell has had that singles success in BRAZEN as well!
Lord Sewell starts to deliver a flurry of knees to the head of Nathan Cross while he’s down. With Cross bent down to a knee, Sewell continues the assault by driving a pair of elbows to the back of the neck. Cross is hurt while Sewell takes his sweet time walking over to Roberts and Monroe on the outside before giving them each a gentlemanly handshake through the ropes.
Lance:
I’m thinking Lord Sewell needs to focus on the man in the ring in front of him and not exchanging pleasantries with his lackeys.
Sewell holds up a left hand that catches Cross’ attention before coming out of nowhere to BOP Cross in the jaw with a right!
DDK:
And that Gentlemen’s Right wasn’t very gentlemanly!
Lance:
No, not at all!
Sewell goes back to the leg and then attacks with a quick series of simple and effective elbow drops to the hamstring to keep Cross from using his signature leaping abilities. He attacks one more time and then picks him up by the leg and slams the knee into the mat! Cross is reeling while Lord Sewell takes his sweet time with his arms behind his back.
DDK:
Now Lord Sewell is milking the punishment on Cross’ leg! He really hasn’t been able to sustain much offense since that chop block at the beginning of the match!
He picks up Cross… but Cross fires back with a forearm! He fires a second forearm and then gets back to his help from the people. He pulls on the arm of Lord Sewell, only for The Elder Technician to kick the same left knee out from under him! Sewell grabs Cross by the arm and then pulls him into a bridging German suplex!
DDK:
Well-executed German suplex! Cover by Sewell!
ONE!
TWO!
NO!
A kickout from the former BRAZEN Star Cup holder surprises Sewell!
Lance:
Impressive! Kickout from Nathan Cross!
DDK:
Indeed, but he needs to come up with some offense here quickly if he wants any hope of pulling off the upset here!
Sewell gets back to his feet and then grabs the left leg of Cross that he’d been working on. He holds on, but before he can execute his next move, Cross leaps up with his other foot and CLIPS him in the back of the head with an enzuigiri using the good leg! Sewell goes cross-eyed and falls to his knees while Cross clutches at his other knee! OTM is shouting at the official that the move was illegal (it wasn’t) while Earl Roberts remains stoic.
DDK:
What a complete turnaround here, but can he make the most of it?
Lance:
This is his chance!
The California native tries to get back to his feet, but Sewell gets barely there ahead of him. He cuts him off with a kick to the gut and tries to whip Cross, but Cross gets ahead of him and then hits a jumping back elbow strike that knocks The Elder Technician clear off his feet! It takes Cross a moment to recover, but he gets back to his feet. As Sewell tries to get back to his feet, he jumps up and hits a one-legged dropkick with his good leg! He hits the mat and the knee is bothering him, but he tries to ride out the pain! He hobbles over to the corner and then climbs slowly to the second rope.
DDK:
Cross leaps… CROSSBODY OFF THE MIDDLE ROPE!
Cross makes the cover!
ONE!
TWO!
NO!
Sewell kicks out after two!
DDK:
Cross doesn’t get the cover, but he’s trying to stay with this!
He tries to get up and hook Sewell by the neck… but Sewell spins around and then kicks the leg again! Cross goes down quickly and that allows Sewell to cross the legs and twist him around before DROPPING with a cross-armed hangman neckbreaker!
DDK:
OOH! The Gentleman’s Pact! That is all!
Sewell confidently makes a cover and hooks a leg.
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
♫ “Land of Hope and Glory” ♫
Darren Quimbey:
Here is your winner of the match… LORD SEWELL!
The Elder Technician sits up and then starts to get back to his feet. He dusts himself off, and then gives Jonny Fastcountini his left arm to allow him the chance to raise his hand.
Lance:
Nothing we saw in this match was very gentlemanly from Sewell, but tonight, a solid win for the leader of Gentlemen's Agreement regardless.
DDK:
Indeed. And next week, we’ve just learned that Lord Sewell is being given a big opportunity to take on one other than Mil Vueltas next week! Can this win parlay to an even bigger win next week?
Lord Sewell leaves the ring and demands his coat from OTM. OTM holds it out for him to put it back on and then the trio depart the ringside area as the show moves on.
LONNIE STONE v. AARON KING
DDK:
The main event is up next and Lonnie Stone is looking to score another win on Uncut tonight as he takes on Aaron King - formerly a member of Better Future Talent Agency.
Lance:
Lonnie Stone defeated Mark Luck on the last episode of Uncut, and he was a big part of the 200th DEFtv celebration that was cut short thanks to what Ned Reform did!
DDK:
I hope Ned gets exactly what’s coming to him for striking down Daniel Davidson. Accidental or not, he had no business coming out to interrupt!
♫ “Desperado” by Me First and the Gimme Gimmes ♫
Quimbey:
The following contest is set for one fall. Introducing first … from Caliente, Nevada … he weighs in at one-hundred seventy-one pounds … LONNNNIIIEEEEE STONNNNNNEEEE!!!
Zipping through the curtains, Lonnie Stone doesn’t wait too long for his entrance music to play. He points at the ring with two fingers then he flies right towards the ring at high velocity! He jumps and slides right under the bottom rope. He’s keeping things simple tonight with silver tights, elbow pads and boots! Some pre-recorded comments play … but they aren’t of Lonnie Stone. Instead they are from Mark Luck, the man he defeated two weeks ago.
Mark Luck:
That cheating little gremlin did not beat me! In fact, I had him beat until he bit me and rolled me up! The referee should have disqualified his little ass but you know what? I’m a Luck! We don’t cry … we get mad then we get even! And if you have some stones on you, meet me in the ring on the next Uncut, Lonnie!
The pre-match comments fade out. Lonnie Stone yells “you’re on!”
DDK:
Mark Luck issuing that challenge after he got rolled up by Lonnie Stone! The rumor I heard was that Mark Luck wants a best of three series to use the Luck name!
Lance:
I wonder what Max and Mason think of all this now that they are back.
♫ "Godzilla” by Eminem feat. Juice WRLD ♫
The new theme plays as lights swirl in shades of red and blue hues. Out comes Aaron King! Wearing black tights with one line going down in red and another in blue, The Pensacola Playboy comes out and starts rapping to the fast-paced theme while talking trash to the camera.
Quimbey:
And his opponent … from Pensacola, Florida, weighing in at 231 pounds… he is ”THE PENSACOLA PLAYBOY” AARONNNNN KING!!
The Floridian points at the camera in front of him and then nods that he’s going to beat the tar out of Lonnie Stone tonight.
Aaron King:
You got a beating coming your way after your cousins bounced me from BFTA, you little dork!
Stone gets ready and puts up his dukes.
DING DING
King and Stone engage in a classic lock up … and then King uses his size in order to snap Li’l Lon off his feet with a rear take down. He spins around to the front and slaps the back of his head before he has a front neck lock firmly secured around Stone’s waist.
DDK:
Stone had absolutely nothing to do with King’s past misfortune in his short lived tenure alongside the Lucky Sevens, but he isn’t letting that stop him here tonight.
Lance:
He never let that go and hasn’t reached that success since.
The Pensacola Playboy grabs Stone by the neck and the next step seems to be taking him up for a vertical suplex … but Stone squirms in mid air and then lands behind King. King turns around and boots him. A whip takes Lonnie into the ropes, but the faster Lonn Dart slides under one clothesline and then another and then finally makes a big jumping head scissors. King gets tossed from the ring and now he ends up on the floor. Lonnie Stone does a quick nip up and lands back on his feet.
DDK:
Lonnie Stone now looks to follow up with the attack … where is he going?
Lance:
Up top?
Stone looks out to both sides of the audience and then he gets the fans on their feet when he jumps all the way to the top rope and then hits a front flip to the outside!!!
DDK:
Stone hits that Lonn Dart!!! That’s a thing of beauty!
Replays show off several angles of the big leap to the outside! The most death defying move that Lonnie Stone has. When the camera feed goes back to the present time, Lonnie Stone gets Aaron King back into the ring. King doesn’t know where he is when Li’l Lon starts with ideas to go to the top rope. Once Lonnie is up there, he jumps off and tries to hit a move.
Lance:
Lonnie Stone tries another dive, but Aaron King moves out of the way!
DDK:
Stone recovers from the landing! He is back on his feet but King catches him!
King picks up Lonnie Stone and he recoils off the top rope by his neck when he gets hit with a hot shot! Stone gets rocked. King runs as far as he can across the ropes and then hits him with a massive lariat flips Stone backwards.
DDK:
King follows the hot shot with the lariat off of the ropes! Could he be looking a victory.
One …
Two …
But the win is not to be because of a kick-out!
Lance:
That was a good series of shots by Aaron King, but Lonnie Stone isn’t done yet!
Aaron King picks him up and goes for the back with a pendulum backbreaker! He stretches out Lonnie across his knee and looks like is now trying to go for the submission.
Aaron King:
Tap out! Tap out, you stupid dork!
The stretching continues and when the official asks Lonnie if he wants to give up …
Lonnie Stone:
No!
DDK:
King is trying to do what he can to get the submission, but Lonnie won’t do it … and he’s coming back now!
Stone catches King by getting his knee up and hitting him about the face several times. After about four shots King is forced to let go, but Lonnie Stone isn’t able to follow up right away. King is able to grab Lonnie by the legs and he tries to take him up for a wheelbarrow suplex, but when he lifts him high, Stone is able to flip around and faceplant King with a big counter!
Lance:
That was a great reversal of the wheelbarrow suplex! Stone wants to keep fighting!
DDK:
He does and he calls that move the Stone Sour!
Aaron King’s face is throbbing in pain and Li’l Lon has finally given himself a chance to fight back! He starts a quick clap while he’s down and gets the DEFIANCE Wrestling Faithful to do it with him. Stone is up first to his feet.
DDK:
Lonnie Stone is about to try and make a comeback … no! King blocks a punch with one of his own first!
Lonnie is punched into the ropes. A whip takes Li’l Lon into the ropes but when he comes back he hits a basement drop kick to the knee of King to counter right back! King grabs the leg and he is left wide open by a running drop kick to the face. King is down. He tries to get up, but Lonnie hits the ropes and then comes back using a flying clothesline that is able to knock King to the mat. The DEFIANCE Wrestling Faithful cheer for Lonnie after he sits up and he lets the crowd’s response fire him up further!
Lance:
Stone has the people on his side right now! He’s only been in DEFIANCE Wrestling for a short time, but he’s garnering a fan base pretty quickly!
Once Li’l Lon has reached his feet again, he rolls under the ropes and stands up on the apron. He leaps over the ropes and then drives King’s face into the canvas once again with a slingshot into a sit-out face buster!
DDK:
Fancy footwork by Stone!
Stone tries pinning King.
One …
Two …
No!!!
King is able to kick out and pushes Stone back.
DDK:
Can Lonnie Stone get this win tonight? He’s so close!
He picks King up by the head but gets a cheap shot to the side of the head when he’s not expecting it and then King hits a german suplex into a bridge!
One …
Two …
No!!!
Lance:
Now it is King’s turn to take the advantage!
King grabs Lonnie by the side of his head neck and then tries to set up his corkscrew neck breaker called King Me. Before he can fully complete the move, Stone hits the leg! He grabs his arm … and then bites King!
DDK:
He just bit him! He’s biting him and these fans love it!
The cheering from the DEFIANCE Wrestling Faithful fuels Stone! He grabs King by the neck and runs the ropes and lands Drop like a Stone!
DDK:
Drop Like A Stone! He hits that running cutter off the ropes!
The DEFIANCE Wrestling Faithful cheer Lonnie who goes for the win!
One …
Two …
Three!!!
DING DING DING
♫ “Desperado” by Me First and the Gimme Gimmes ♫
Quimbey:
The winner of the match … LONNIEEEEEE STONE!!!
Lonnie Stone is relieved to be done with the match at last after the fight put up by Aaron King. Stone gets his hands raised by the official and then he jumps up as quickly as he can to the ropes and enjoys the roars of the fans!
DDK:
A big win in singles action by Lonnie Stone! Things don’t appear to be done with Mark Luck to end the show.
Lance:
They don’t! And that best of three series between these men continues on the next Uncut! Mark Luck versus Lonnie Stone! The winner gets to keep the Luck name!
Stone raises his hands and the cheers continue for Li’l Lon when the show fades out.
DDK:
We have a big show for you next week! Our very last stop before we get to the biggest show of the year … DEFCON!!!
THIS.
IS.
DEFIANCE.
