Skull Kid VS Aveil!

While the rest of the UnderWorld Order is exploring the Thyphlo Ruins, #SwoleKid is here to fight! But the same goes for the leading lady of the Gerudo Sisterhood as she strikes out on her own for a singles title! Will Aveil be well on her way? Or will Skull Kid continue his momentum from HyruleMania?

Skull Kid just keeps looking bigger every time he shows up. His ring gear is also now taking on pink and purple in its design to match the mask. He’s very fired up and the ref has to keep him back. The bell rings, and Skull Kid rushes in at Aveil! Aveil dodges, Skull Kid keeps pushing offense, and the two circle around the ring. They tie up, Skull Kid powers Aveil to a corner and the ref counts. Skull Kid holds until 4, but he doesn’t back up too far. The ref tells him to back off but Skull Kid doesn’t move. Aveil kicks Skull Kid but Skull Kid doesn’t budge! Aveil kicks again, then fires forearms, but Skull Kid is like a statue!

Will he regret riling up the Skyfall Stud?

Groose VS Glutko!

Speaking of HyruleMania, the Skyfall Stud lost to Skull Kid, and then lost his hair. But will he lose his nerve and lose in the opening round? Or will he literally win big by taking on the literally biggest competitor in the tournament?

The bell rings and Glutko looks to be salivating as he stares at Groose. Groose is put off by that as he and Glutko circle. They approach, tie up, and Groose pushes but Glutko stays put! Glutko then powers Groose back and into a corner. The ref counts and Glutko lets off at 4, to then rush Groose! Glutko BITES Groose’s head!

Glutko whips Groose corner to corner, then he runs in, but Groose dodges! Glutko hits nothing but buckles, and he staggers, clutching his gut.

Groose rushes in, throws hands, but Glutko shoves him away. Groose comes back, they tie up, and Glutko puts Groose in another corner. Groose avoids the clubbing forearm to fire off forearms.

The ref counts, Glutko lets off, and the two argue. Fans boo as Glutko drags Groose back up, but Groose fires off haymakers!

Groose survives being squashed and fans fire up again! But Glutko HEADBUTTS Groose down, double knuckle lock covers, TWO! Groose staggers up but Glutko is on him with forearms. Glutko puts Groose in a corner to CHOP! Glutko BITES Groose’s forehead again! The ref counts, Glutko lets off and Groose staggers as he checks his forehead.

Groose CLUBS away on Glutko’s back, but Glutko picks Groose up and turns around to RAM Groose into the post! The ref reprimands and tells them to get into the ring, and Glutko whips Groose into the steel steps! The steps break apart and fans boo as Glutko storms over. Glutko drags the base steps and puts them in the ring. Glutko then pushes Groose into the ring and moves the steps to the middle of the ring. The ref reprimands but Glutko tells him to back off as he drags Groose onto the steps!

Glutko gets up onto the steps and he stands over Groose! Fans boo and chant “NO! NO! NO!” while the ref reprimands. The ref tells Glutko to get down, but Glutko instead swivels his hips again. But Groose scrambles out from under Glutko! Glutko’s HIP DROP hits only steel steps! Glutko’s face says it all when it comes to the pain. Groose chicken wings Glutko and turns him! LOFTWING DRIVER!! Cover, Groose wins!!

Winner: Groose, by pinfall (advances to the next round)

Groose defeats his FOE! The Gluttonous Goliath could not stop the Skyfall Stud from rising back up! But now that we’re going to get a rematch from HyruleMania, will Groose redeem himself completely? Or will Skull Kid just make history repeat itself?

Backstage interview with Arrow Club.

Seres is with Torbevito, Bad Croc Scaly & The Young Ducks, and says they asked for this time. What do they want to say? Mack Quackson says, “Shouldn’t that be obvious? What do we not have with us? And it should be obvious.” Seres says, “Well, it’s obviously the different championships.” Rick shouts, “Yes! We don’t have our championships. We were upset after we lost, and then Fin told us to calm down, but then he lost! Do you know what that makes us?” Seres nervously says, “Former champions?” Rick shouts, “We’re not losers!!” Torbevito and Scaly both point out she didn’t say “losers,” and Rick calms down.

Mack says, “Yes, we are former champions. But we will get those HPW Trios titles back, just like Fin will win this whole Triforce Tournament!” Torbevito adds, “Yeah! And just like how I’m gonna get the Death Mountain Championship back!” The others start to go “Yeah,” but then stop themselves to go, “Um…” Torbevito asks them, “What? You don’t think I can beat Midna?” Rick says, “It’s not that you can’t. There’s always a chance. It’s just a small, small chance.” “Also,” Mack says, “she’s facing Zelda next. She might not even be Death Mountain Champion after that.” Torbevito says, “Then I’ll beat Zelda for the title!”

The rest of the Arrow Club look away and Seres even has to stop herself from laughing. Seres then says, “There are other trios who want after the titles, though.” “So?” the Quacksons say. Mack says, “Who even are these other trios? The Ikana Royal Family?” Scaly says, “We’ll break those bones!” Rick says, “The Doombringers?” Scaly says, “They’re the ones who’re doomed!” Mack says, “The Three Masters?” Scaly says, “More like the Three Disasters!” Rick says, “The UnderWorld Order?” Scaly says, “More like Underwear Odor!” Mack says, “The Poe Sisters?” Scaly says, “They’re just… Uh… More like… I’m trying not to get in trouble here, guys.”

“That’s fair,” Mack says. “But our point is, none of those teams are us. We are Arrow Club. We are going to hit our mark and get the trios titles off the Dames of the Dunes! Just you wait and see!” Rick lets out a “CACAW~!” and Arrow Club moves on. Will they keep their word and be back on top of the world?

Iron Knuckle VS Militron!

Anyone else notice a resemblance between these two? Big, burly and they wear a lot of armor. But only the strongest can make it through! Who will be crushed and recycled as the other moves on?

The bell rings and the fans rally for Iron Knuckle as he stares down Militron. They step to each other, and Militron is taller than Iron Knuckle by about half a head.

Both men are down and fans fire up! They both roll and flop out of the ring on opposite sides of the corner. Knuckle crawls to the railings and drags himself back up to his feet. Militron is at the ramp, and he sees where Knuckle is. But instead of heading for Knuckle, Militron goes around the other way? He builds speed as he goes around the ring! Knuckle stands up, only for Militron to CLOBBER him! Militron roars again while fans go nuts again! Militron shouts at Knuckle to get up, and Knuckle flounders his way to the steel steps.

Fans continue to rally and chant, “Knuckle! Knuckle!” Knuckle fights up again, Militron lifts him again but Knuckle throws elbows. Knuckle elbows free, runs and RAMS Militron, but Militron rebounds, only for Knuckle to dodge and run Militron over! Fans fire up, and Knuckle drops a SENTON! Cover, TWO!

Fans continue to rally behind Knuckle and he stalks Militron. Militron sits up, and Knuckle clamps on for a REBONACK CLUTCH! Fans fire up, Knuckle squeezes tight and drags Militron down! Militron flails, avoids the body scissors, and his foot gets the ROPEBREAK! The ref counts and fans boo but Knuckle lets go at 4. Militron sputters as he bails out of the ring and fans boo more. But Knuckle builds speed and DIVES! Direct hit and Militron hits railing! Fans are losing their minds again as Knuckle puts Militron back in the ring.

Winner: Onox, by pinfall (advances to the next round)

The General has conquered the Sage and has his first win in HPW! Onox moves on to the second round, but will he crush or be crushed in his match with Militron?

My Thoughts:

This was a really tricky bracket to book. Not so much in who should go over, but in the match order for the best possible flow. Skull Kid and Groose is the match-up with story, but in universe, Onox and Darunia are big deals. This was going to end with a Face win either way, but I just wasn’t sure which one. Onox VS Darunia ended up being the longer match so something about that just feels more like a main event to me.
