HPW and HXS TV set the scene!

As is tradition, following Power is Wisdom, but don’t expect these showdowns to be any less powerful. HyruleMania 5 saw The Dark Forces shockingly betray Volga and Wizzro just so The Faces of Evil could become World Trios Champions. Volga takes on Zant and Cia takes on Ghirahim, will the traitors pay for what they’ve done? Or will Volga & Cia have even less than they had before? Then we have quite the surprise, HPW welcomes Sidon to the roster! He has quite the challenge in front of him, though, as he takes on wrestling reaper, Gomess! Will this tournament debut be the death of Sidon? Or can he make quite the splash?

But first, two icons clash once more! The Zora Princess is without the Goddess Championship, but she is now after a bigger fish! Will she make it past her old rival? Or will the Sage of Spirit prove she’s still got it? The HPW Triforce Tournament opening round continues now!

Ganon took over The Dark Forces, and it looked like he was going to take everyone to that next level. However, it would seem he didn’t really want everyone. The Faces of Evil won the World Trios Championships because the Dragon Knight was made into the scapegoat, but can he get some semblance of revenge? Or will that weasel, Zant, add insult to injury?

Of all things for Zant to have during his entrance, he’s waving a Dark Forces banner. He wasn’t even a founding member, and now he’s acting like it was his team all along!

Volga CHOKES Zant, the ref reprimands, but the fans cheer! The ref counts, Volga stops at 4, and Zant sputters.

The fans boo but Zant takes aim as Volga flounders. Volga stands, Zant runs up, and hits SLINGBLADE!

The fans boo more as Zant uses Volga’s favorite move against him! Zant waits on Volga, runs up again, SLINGBLADE again! Zant is parodying Volga right before our eyes! The fans boo more as Zant watches Volga again. Volga staggers up, Zant runs in, but Volga stops the slingblade! Volga then lifts Zant for a POP-UP NECKBREAKER! Cover, TWO!

Cia runs down the ramp and she goes after Ghirahim! The fans fire up, and well, these two are in the main event so might as well get that started!

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

The fans are furious but so was this match! The Living Blade is moving on in the tournament, will he cut down Volga in the second round? Or will Volga still avenge the OG Dark Forces on his way to glory?

My Thoughts:

I feel a little better about the Bracket of Wisdom’s opening round than I do about Bracket of Power’s, but I was unsure how to handle Sidon’s return to the story. He’s no longer NWS (Necluda Wrestling Swamp), he is now HPW, so I suppose a debut push is standard. He gets as strong win to start, too, but I’m unsure how Ruto VS Sidon will go. The main thing was the Dark Forces story needed to feel strong coming off of HyruleMania 5. Pro-wrestling standard formula kinda dictated Volga beats Zant while Ghirahim beats Cia, so that we can get Volga VS Ghirahim next round as a pseudo-blowoff match. Now, on to the Bracket of Courage!

Bandwagon Nerds #287: Filling A Void

The Nerds review Thunderbolts*, check out the latest trailers, and celebrate Star Wars Day as only they can!

PC Tunney

The Bandwagon is stripped down this week as Dave and PC Tunney helm the ship for a big week in the Nerdosphere. Naturally, we are covering Thunderbolts as Dave, Tunney (and the rest of the Bandwagon, for that matter) all saw the latest entry into the MCU. What was the consensus, and did the longest post-credit scene in MCU history push the Universe in the right direction? In other MCU News, we discovered why Hawkeye had no second season. From there, the guys head into the Trailer Park to look at the latest, including a sizzle reel for Netflix’s TUDUM event, Dwayne “The Rock ” Johnson’s latest movie, The Smashing Machine, and a very creepy look at Weapons. GTA 6 got delayed, again….but could that be a blessing in disguise? But this Episode was recorded on Star Wars Day, and to commemorate the event, Dave tries his best to convince Tunney to watch Andor, while Tunney tells Dave what he likes most about one of the most successful franchises of all time. All that, plus Dave tells you why The Last of Us is the best show anywhere on TV. Dave & Tunney cover a lot of ground in an action-packed episode of BWN, so make sure you tune in!

I’m gonna live till I die! I’m gonna laugh ‘stead of cry!

While Zelda finally won the Undisputed HPW Triforce World Championship through an epic all-timer with Link, elation soon turned to despair as Ganon and the Dark Forces attacked. Link was left a bloody mess while Zelda was an emotional wreck, but now is the chance to make Ganon pay for it all! Will there be no more tears as the Princess of Hyrule shows the Gerudo Ace no mercy? Or will the blue skies of Spring be clouded by a new reign of terror?

HPW World Trios Championships Blood & Thunder Qualifier: Arrow Club VS TSDQ!

These teams have battled quite a few times in the past, the trios titles at the heart of it. But now, they battle again in order to step inside the dreaded double cage that is Blood & Thunder! Who falls short while the other team is ThunderStruck?

Arrow Club is going with a very different trio this time, as the Young Ducks aren’t part of it at all! It’s Fin Balure, Bad Croc Scaly & Torbevito! They match up part for part with Groose, Skull Kid & Tingle, and the Faces of Evil when you think about it. The trios sort out, and while Groose calls out Fin, Fin mockingly says, “One second.” Then Fin steps outside the ring, letting Torbevito start against Groose. The bell rings and the fans duel, “T D S Q!” “ARROW CLUB!” Groose and Torbevito circle, feel things out, and they tie up. Groose powers Torbevito to the ropes, the ref calls the ropebreak, and Groose slowly lets off.

The fans applaud as Groose backs up and the two reset. Groose and Torbevito circle again, tie up again, and Groose puts Torbevito back on the ropes. Torbevito turns things around, the ref counts the break again, and Torbevito lets off slowly. But then he CHOPS! The fans fire up but Groose scowls while Torbevito backs off. Groose and Torbevito reset, circle, and Torbevito gets around Groose to CLUB him on the back. Torbevito headlocks, grinds the hold, but Groose powers up to lift him!

The fans cheer, Groose tags Skull Kid, and Groose keeps Torbevito corner while Skull Kid runs side to side. Skull Kid runs in and ELBOWS Torbevito in the corner!

The fans cheer while Skull Kid has Torbevito on the ropes. Skull Kid kicks Torbevito, whips him, but Torbevito reverses to then kick, KICK, wrench and SUPERKICK! Cover, TWO! Skull Kid is tougher than that, but Torbevito clamps onto Skull Kid with a chinlock. The fans rally while Skull Kid endures. Skull Kid fights up, powers up and out, but Fin sneaks a tag. Torbevito then slides out, taunts Skull Kid, and Fin rolls Skull Kid up! TWO, Skull Kid gets up, but Fin CHOPS him! The fans cheer and Fin CHOPS again!

Link SUPERKICKS Ganon!

Ganon sputters, Zelda slips around behind and REQUIEM OF SPIRIT! Link then goes around the outside to fetch Sahasrahla into the ring. Zelda drags Ganon into a half hatch, and bridges for a Chancery!! Ganon sputters and flails, but he’s fading again! Ganon’s greenish face is going red! Sahasrahla checks on Ganon, and this time, Ganon is OUT!! ZELDA WINS!!

Winner: Zelda, by submission (still Undisputed HPW Triforce World Champion)

The Hero of Hyrule returns to get his revenge on Ganon, and the Princess of Hyrule still reigns! Link then raises Zelda’s hand in victory, to LARIAT HER?!? The fans freak out all over again, but then Link looks into the cameras. He has an evil smile, and then he brings his hand to his eyes, and takes out contact lenses!? He has RED EYES! THIS ISN’T LINK, IT’S KAGE!! The Hero’s Shadow tricked everyone, and now he’s back! Will Zelda’s soon be overshadowed?

My Thoughts:

What a twist! I’d been waiting for a chance to bring Kage back into the story, and here we are! And he calls his shot against Zelda while showing he isn’t part of Ganon’s Dark Forces at the same time. ThunderStruck will be some good stuff.
