PLAY BY PLAY

HPW and HXS TV set the scene!

Whose hungry? The stars of Hyrule Pro-Wrestling sure are! Hungry for competition, and hungry for something more! The Clash of Fates has already shaped much of HyruleMania 3, and with Arrow Club holding most of the gold, they’ve all got targets on their backs! One big target is on young Torbevito’s back as he’s still Death Mountain Champion. Tali isn’t allowed to challenge him again, but a legal loophole allows Aveil of the Desert Flowers to throw her proverbial hat into the ring! But she, Onox, Ghirahim (yes, even Ghirahim) and the Dark Horses, Ralph, Odolwa and Byrne, must all fight to qualify!

The next biggest target is the HPW Trios Championships! The Swamp Boss, Bad Croc Scaly, and the Young Ducks, Mack & Rick Quackson, crossed off the Desert Flowers, but the Dames of the Dunes are a different story. Tali swaps with Aveil so that she, Riju & Buliara are now part of a massive Trios match! They are joined by The Dark Forces and the UnderWorld Order, two factions that previously held these titles, as well as former champions, Groose & Tingle. Of course, this is a Trios match, so Groose & Tingle do need a partner. Did they find someone to join them in this golden opportunity? Or will they be replaced by a team that’s chomping at the bit?

But first! As an appetizer for their showdown at HyruleMania, we see the HPW Triforce Champion, Kage, take on the Hyrule Warriors winner, Igos du Ikana, in a tag team match! 2v2 is rare, but Kage really only has one ally available to him in Wizzro, so 2v2 it will be. Who will taste sweet victory on the way to the Celebration of Greatness? HPW Fyter Feast on Trilby Plain starts now!

Kage & Wizzro VS Igos du Ikana & Captain Keeta!

The Hero’s Shadow had one of the most brutal matches perhaps anywhere against Link not even a month ago, but he doesn’t care. Will the HPW Triforce Champion stay strong just a month out from HyruleMania? Or will he already #FallToRuin here at Fyter Feast?

The teams sort out, and fans fire up as Kage and Igos both start for their teams, giving us all an appetizer of their title match. Kage and Igos circle, approach, feel things out, and then Igos knees Kage low! Kage sputters and stumbles to the ropes, his ribs still hurting from the Blood Match. Igos and Keeta laugh at Kage’s pain, and Igos mockingly asks Kage what’s wrong. Kage snarls and glares at Igos, but he is clutching his ribs. Igos waits on Kage and Kage approaches. They tie up, go around the ring, and Kage gets a headlock. Kage grinds the hold, but then Igos throws a body shot! Kage’s bad ribs get him again!

Igos slips out of the headlock, CLUBS Kage on the back, then wraps on a rear bearhug! Kage endures as Igos squeezes the bad ribs! Fans rally, Kage pries at the hold, but Igos RAMS Kage into the Ikana corner. Igos RAMS his shoulder in again and again, and then digs his shoulder in. The referee counts, Keeta tags in, and Igos brings Kage out of the corner for a BACK SUPLEX NECKBREAKER! Keeta covers, TWO!! That was a close one and even Kage knows it! Was taking this match too much too soon? Keeta stomps Kage to the ropes. Keeta stands Kage up and pushes him against the ropes. The ref counts and Keeta lets off at 4 with a hard body shot!

Kage drops to a knee and grits his teeth. Keeta flexes his arms like he’s that strong but fans boo. Keeta stands Kage back up against the ropes, pushes him against them again, but lets off at 4 with another body shot! Kage staggers away to a corner while Keeta flexes again. Keeta storms over to Kage in the corner but Kage ELBOWS him away. Keeta staggers, but Kage ROCKS him with a forearm! And ROCKS him again! And again! Kage whips, but Keeta reverses to scoop and SCRAPBUSTER! Cover, TWO!! Another close call! Keeta drags Kage up and headlocks. Keeta reaches out for Igos, but Kage slips away and scrambles to his corner.

Fans rally up as Kage sits up, but Wizzro tags in. Kage grimaces but he slides out of the ring. Kage growls in frustration but Wizzro assures him that he’s got this. Wizzro taunts Keeta and fans rally up. Keeta looks to Igos and shrugs. Keeta and Wizzro approach, tie up, and Keeta’s height advantage makes it easy for him to push Wizzro to ropes! The ref counts, but Wizzro steps through the ropes to get on the apron. The ref reprimands as Wizzro holds onto Keeta’s arms. Wizzro says, “Okay, hold on.” And then he HOTSHOTS Keeta! Keeta staggers and sputters away, Wizzro hurries in and BULLDOGS Keeta down! Cover, TWO!

Fans fire up for Wizzro as he dares Keeta to get up. Keeta sits up, Wizzro reels him in, but Keeta pushes him away. Wizzro comes back and jumps, but Keeta blocks the DDT again! Keeta pops Wizzro to a fireman’s carry, for a GORON DROP! Cover, TWO, into a ghost pin! TWO, and now Keeta scrambles away to his corner! Wizzro eggs Keeta on and fans fire up with him, but Keeta tags out to Igos. Igos circles with Wizzro, but then he sucker punches Kage off the apron! Igos ROCKS Wizzro, clinches and throws knee after knee. He backs Wizzro down, ROCKS him again, and has him in the Ikana corner.

Igos digs his boots in, the ref counts, and Igos lets off at 4 to tag Keeta. Keeta stomps Wizzro, digs his boots in, then lets off at 4. Keeta drags Wizzro up, CLUBS him on the back, then clamps on a headlock, grinds the hold, but Wizzro throws body shots. Wizzro powers out but Keeta grabs onto his hood! Keeta uses that to reel Wizzro back in! Keeta hits a headlock takeover but Wizzro keeps his shoulders up. Keeta blocks Wizzro’s headscissor attempt, and he throws down palm strikes. Wizzro grabs at Keeta’s face, but being a skeleton, Keeta has no hair or ears to pull at. So Wizzro uses a forearm to push Keeta into the headscissors!

Keeta kips free, Wizzro reverses the roles and hits a headlock takeover! Keeta headscissors back and Wizzro can’t get free as Keeta holds on tight. Wizzro kicks and hops around, and pops free, and he jumps on Keeta to get a headlock! Fans cheer the technical exchange but Igos coaches Keeta to get up. Keeta fights his way up as Wizzro grinds the hold. Keeta reaches out for Igos, but Wizzro fishhooks his mouth! The ref reprimands but Wizzro brings Keeta around. Kage returns to the corner, Wizzro reaches out for him, but Keeta back suplexes! Wizzro lands on his feet! Keeta swings but Wizzro gets under, hot tag to Kage!

Fans fire up as Kage springboards in to FLYING KNEE Keeta down! Kage BLASTS Igos off the apron! Kage then aims at Keeta to run in and MASTER SWORD! Fans fire up as Kage roars, and Kage brings Keeta back up. Kage tries to Electric Chair Lift, but that’s hard to do with bad ribs. Keeta elbows Kage away, then Keeta powers Kage to ropes. Keeta uses that momentum to whip Kage, but Wizzro sneaks a tag in. Kage sunset flips Keeta, Wizzro goes to the adjacent side to SPRINGBOARD SPLASH! Cover, TWO! Fans fire up and Wizzro brings Keeta up. Wizzro wrenches an arm and hooks Keeta up, but Keeta powers out of the Mouse Trap!

Keeta has Wizzro on his shoulder and he RAMS Kage off the apron with him! Keeta then runs all the way to the Ikana corner to RAM Wizzro into buckles! Igos tags in, Keeta runs with Wizzro again, TERMINA STAMPEDE! Igos looms over Wizzro and lifts his head up with his foot! Kage gets up on the apron but Keeta’s HIP ATTACK knocks him back down! ELEGY OF EMPTINESS for Wizzro! Cover, the Ikana Royal Family wins!

Winners: Igos du Ikana & Captain Keeta, by pinfall

Fans are torn as the Ruler of Ruin stands tall! Kage is down on the outside, will he soon be on the outside looking in when it comes to the Triforce Championship? Or will he be 100% by HyruleMania?

The bell rings and fans chant for “O~NOX! O~NOX!” as Onox and Odolwa stare down. They slowly approach, until they’re face to face. Well, Odolwa still has to look up at Onox, so not really face to face. Both men snarl at the other, and then Odolwa throws a heavy forearm! But Onox doesn’t budge!

What a shocker! The Sword of the Swamp did not shatter against the boulder of a man that is Onox! This Dark Horse is stampeding his way to HyruleMania, but will he be in the winner’s circle at the Celebration of Greatness?

Wait, what’s that on the tron?

“FACE YOUR FOE” plays on the titantron, and it’s rather glitchy… And there’s even glitchy audio saying those three words. Then it’s practically shouting, “Face your foe! Face your foe! FACE! YOUR! FOE!!” The image goes away, the lights all go out, and then the lights come back up as if nothing happened. But what does it all mean?

HPW Death Mountain Championship Ladder Match Qualifier: Ralph VS Ghirahim!

One last Dark Horse enters the race! The Lad from Labrynna wants to live up to his potential, but he’s up against the Living Blade! Will Ralph take the Death Mountain Championship Ladder Match for a spin? Or will Ghirahim redeem himself from saying “I Quit” at Clash of Fates?

Ghirahim seems to have healed up well from Clash of Fates, but he’s wearing his black outfit for this one. As for Ralph, he hasn’t changed his gear, it’s still baby blue with purple cuffs and brown boots. The bell rings, Ralph and Ghirahim circle, but then Ghirahim bails out. Fans boo and Ralph is confused as Ghirahim does stretches. Shouldn’t he have done this backstage before the match? Ralph tells Ghirahim to get in the ring, as does Tiger Sahasrahla, but Ghirahim tells them to hold on. Ghirahim shakes out a leg and tells Ralph to back off. Sahasrahla has Ralph stay back and Ghirahim slowly slides in, but then rolls right back out.

Fans boo as Ghirahim keeps stalling. Ghirahim walks around the way and Ralph gets impatient. Ralph slides out but Ghirahim slides back in the ring!

Ralph and Ghirahim stagger around dizzily, but Ralph steadies himself. He points to either side of Ghirahim, and then brings his hands together straight ahead. Then he SUPERKICKS Ghirahim down!

Fans fire up as Ralph fires up, but he still wobbles a bit. Ralph goes to a corner and he waits on Ghirahim to get up. Fans rally, Ghirahim slowly stands, and Ralph runs in! But Ghirahim runs in and rolls him up! With tights! TWO!! Ralph complains about the tights, but Ghirahim CHOPS Ralph! Ralph ROCKS Ghirahim with a forearm! Ghirahim CHOPS again! And CHOPS! And CHOPS!

The comeback no one wants to see is happening! Ghirahim is joining Torbevito, Aveil, Odolwa and Midna, but will he be able to rise above them all to reach the summit of Death Mountain again?

Tali, Buliara & Riju form a new trio in order to get revenge against Arrow Club. Cia, Volga and their Gibdo, as well as Skull Kid, Hollywood ReDead and their Gibdo, all want to bring the Trios titles back home to their factions. And the Skyfall Stud mostly wants payback on Skull Kid, and going to HyruleMania will be icing on the cake! But does Groose’s team even have a third partner?

Wait, as Groose and Tingle make their entrance, they wait on stage, leaving space between them. They both point to the entryway and smile, as LADRONA makes her entrance! Fans cheer as the Thief Girl joins the fight! They are now, “The Good, the Bad & The Studly!” But will they be #1 contenders after tonight?

Which one?! Groose and Tingle both shrug. Well they can’t both be legal! They’re on the same team!

Groose says he and Tingle can settle this. Rock paper scissors, shoot! Tie, go again! Tie, go again! The Gibdos look at each other as Tingle and Groose keep tying. So the Gibdos both BOOT Groose and Tingle! And they stomp away on them! But Sahasrahla stops them! Groose and Tingle can’t both be legal, but clearly a Gibdo has to be illegal now! Who got tagged first? The Gibdos point at each other! Sahasrahla sighs and holds his head in his hands. Sahasrahla says that Groose and Tingle tagging at the same time voids the tag, the Gibdos are both still legal! UWOG DECKS DFG! UWOG drags DFG up and puts him in the uWo corner and tags ReDead.

The uWo stomp away on DFG, Sahasrahla counts and ReDead lets off. ReDead taunts the rest of the Dark Forces, and Sahasrahla has to keep Volga from jumping. But this allows Skull Kid to CHOKE DFG! Groose protests, Sahasrahla heads back over to reprimand Skull Kid, and Skull Kid tells Groose to mind his own business! ReDead drags DFG up and ROCKS him with a right. DFG staggers and ReDead stalks him to ropes.

Cia sneaks a tag in before ReDead clotheslines DFG up and out!

Cia slips in behind ReDead for a BACKSTABBER! She manages to get ReDead up and over into BLACK MAGIC! ReDead flails and reaches out while Cia pulls back on the hold! UWOG runs in but Volga springboards to FLYING KNEE him down! Volga DECKS Skull Kid for good measure, but Tingle runs in to kick at Cia! Cia lets ReDead go to grab Tingle’s leg!

DFG gets back in the ring but Tali is there and she SPEARS him down! ReDead is back up and he BOOTS Tali! But Tali rebounds and RAMS ReDead! ReDead staggers and Buliara holds the ropes down! ReDead teeters but he doesn’t really fall out. Tali runs over to clothesline ReDead up and out! ReDead staggers up to his feet and Beedle rushes over to check on him. Buliara CROSSBODIES ReDead and Beedle down!

Fans are thunderous while Sahasrahla is panicked! Buliara drags ReDead up and puts him in, then tags in off him. Buliara storms over to DFG and drags him up to a fireman’s carry. DFG fights free and HEADBUTTS Buliara. DFG reels Buliara in for a SPINEBUSTER! DFG drags Buliara into a drop zone, and he goes up the corner?! But then Skull Kid trips him up! Fans boo but this is the Studly corner, though, Skull Kid can’t tag in. Skull Kid still goes up top, and he ROCKS DFG into a Tree of Woe! DFG tries to sit up, but Skull Kid gives him WOE STOMPS! Skull Kid then drags Buliara up, but Buliara gives him a POP-UP GORON DROP! Cover, TWO!

Fans fire up while Buliara drags Skull Kid back up. Buliara heads for the Dames’ corner but Skull Kid slips free and CHOP BLOCKS a leg! Buliara drops to a knee, Skull Kid hits a BASEMENT DDT! Cover, Riju stomps it apart. Riju brings Skull Kid up but Skull Kid HEADBUTTS her back! Buliara pops Skull Kid right up to an Electric Chair!

Fans boo as ReDead saves Skull Kid and drags him away! ReDead tags in, then he storms over to drag Buliara up.

ReDead scoops Buliara, SLAMS her, then roars before he runs the ropes! But DFG POUNCES him off course! DFG roars at UWOG and dares him to get back in! UWOG stares DFG down, and he tags in off ReDead! The Gibdos fire off haymakers, but Sahasrahla reprimands DFG for being in illegally! DFG knees low, BOOTS UWOG, but UWOG rebounds to BOOT back! DFG rebounds, but UWOG avoids the boot to run and BODY CHECK DFG! UWOG storms over to Buliara but Buliara hits a JAWBREAKER! UWOG wobbles, Buliara DISCUS LARIATS! Fans are thunderous again while both wrestlers are down!

“THIS IS AWESOME!” as UWOG and Buliara both crawl. UWOG ends up in the Studly corner and Ladrona tags in! She hurries and anchors Buliara’s foot!

Ladrona sits up in a daze, Buliara drags her back up and picks her up. Tali runs in and they SANDWICH Ladrona! Tali then gut wrenches Ladrona and Buliara helps out, DOUBLE PILEDRIVER!!! Tali covers, the Dames win!!

Winners: The Dames of the Dunes, by pinfall (NEW #1 Contenders to the HPW Trios Championships)

The Gerudo Alliance has succeeded! But this is only the start of their redemption! Aveil is going after Torbevito in the Ladder Match, and now Tali, Riju & Buliara are going after- OH! Speaking of going after, Groose and Skull Kid are still brawling outside! Groose clotheslines Skull Kid over the barriers! The rest of the uWo hurries over but the Dark Forces go after them! Groose chases after Skull Kid among the crowd! The Gibdos also brawl, and ReDead going after Volga. Cia chases Beedle off! What will it take to settle things between all these grudges?

WAIT! Arrow Club makes their way on stage! Bad Croc Scaly & The Young Ducks raise their trios titles, and Shabonne is already saying The Dames are getting that gold! Will redemption be completed at the Celebration of Greatness?

My Thoughts:

This was a fun card to put together. Now, granted, I put a lot more into that huge Trios main event, but there’s a lot going on with all those characters there, obviously. There are definitely grudge matches cooking for the Gibdos, as well as Groose and Skull Kid. And while it might seem a bit much, but the Gerudo Alliance is all getting in on the rematches. The Ladder Match is going to be wild with Ghirahim also getting another shot at Midna. In the field of Ghirahim, Midna (true form), Torbevito, Aveil and Odolwa, Odolwa is the biggest but he’s not a hoss, so this is going to be a fast paced, physical ladder match. The Trios Championships could also be a toss up, but it’s also tricky since we just saw the Gerudo Alliance lose to Arrow Club at Clash of Fates.
