UWA Marking Out: Time to Payback the Bitch

Time to Payback the Bitch: The Saga of Derek Wylde & Jennifer Blake 

Throughout the course of every man’s life, there comes a point when he must deal with the most dreadful dilemma of all – girl problems.

Sometimes you forgot her birthday, other times you cause her to be viciously gored into a steel ladder. For Dangerboy Derek Wylde, the mistakes which proved to be the undoing of his relationship with Jennifer Blake have been plaguing him since October of last year.

The seeds of mistrust were planted at Return of the Dragon, where Wylde narrowly avoided the running knees of Joker by pulling Blake into harms way instead. After Blake was viciously mauled while helping her beau during night one of the 2006 Grand Prix, the blonde vixen displayed an obvious change of heart the next night during Wylde’s four corners match. Ever the opportunist, Phil Atlas turned his attention away from the action and charmed his way into the rebounding Blake’s heart/pants and walked out of the match with Blake on his arm, much to the chagrin of Wylde.

Since that point, life has been nothing but hell for Dangerboy in the UWA. With her short-shorts and vixen-like charms, Blake has been able to send a steady stream of opponents towards Wylde, including the monster Asylum who destroyed Wylde at Infinite Glory and helped humiliate him by allowing his former girlfriend pin him.

With the former Canadian Champion MDogg20 doing her bidding, Blake became unstoppable. But unfortunately for her, the unpredictable behavior of MDogg20 led to the blowup of their union and Blake was now left alone to face the man she had been irritating for months in a street fight, granted to Wylde by the management of the UWA.

The barricades protecting Blake from the wrath of Wylde have all been torn down, and while Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, Derek Wylde might just have the fury of the devil raging inside of him.

This Friday, June 22nd, UWA Hardcore presents another great show featuring some the top indy talent from across North America. For more info and the event card, check out their official website in the links to the right.

The Charbroiled Chairman

Permanently uprooting the world of sports-entertainment, the Chairman has been presumed dead in Wilkes-Barre, Pa. – WWE.com

I’m LOVING this right now. Shit like this is what made me a rabid wrestling fan in the first place. The problem with WWE shows right now is that there’s no reason to look forward to the next show. Back in the Attitude era, almost every Raw used to end with a cliffhanger that would leave you anticipating next week’s show. During high school I would constantly hear people talk about what they thought what was going to happen next or what they would like to see happen. As much as we like to talk about how great certain matches are, for the casual fan, it’s all about the drama. Angles like the mystery of the higher power or the hijacked wedding of Stephanie McMahon drew tons of attention and really got people talking. If you check anywhere on the net, people are talking about this and it seems like everyone’s having fun throwing their theories into the hat.
