DETAILED RESULTS FROM BATTLECADE V
It was an electric, historical night at CWF Mid-Atlantic's Anniversary show -"Battlecade V" - which featured TWO new champions and possibly the largest announcement in the history of the promotion. CWF Mid-Atlantic's Commissioner William L. Cross kicked off the show with that very announcement, revealing that CWF Mid-Atlantic has joined the modern-day American Wrestling Association (AWA) as the Mid-Atlantic chapter that will cover the AWA's North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia territories. With this venture, the Mid- Atlantic Heavyweight title has been declared as the next most prestigious title under the AWA World Heavyweight Championship. The action kicked off fast and furious, as two Northeastern competitors (who have also seen competition in the unique Chikara promotion) made their Mid-Atlantic debuts. John Brooks and David Cole defeated Krazy K and Dexter Poindexter in 8:46 when Brooks scored the pinfall on Krazy K. The Spoiler then "returned" to Mid- Atlantic rings after a very lengthy absence, pinning "Classic" Chris Collins in 5:14. The estranged Dynasty of "Slick" Ric Converse, "Tremendous" Trent Wylde, and Brad Attitude were out next with Converse trying to persuade Attitude into handing over the guaranteed title shot Attitude owned by winning the CWF Rumble back in September. Attitude refused to do so. Much to everyone's surprise, the current Mid- Atlantic Heavyweight Cchampion, "Dangerous E" Coey Edsel, made his way to the ring and issued an ultimatium to Converse: Attitude wouldn't have to hand over his title shot tonight because Edsel would offer one himself, but under one condition - the loser could not receive another Mid-Atlantic Heavyweight title shot for one entire year, thereby ending the tumultous title war between Edsel and Converse that has stretched back over the past two years. With a great deal of hesitation, but with repeated encouragement by Attitude, Converse did accept the terms, setting up what was to be a very historical "Battlecade" main event. Garry "Madd Trucker" Stevens issued an open challenge to anyone in the building "brave enough to face him," and that call was answered by the youngster Ryin Andrews. Andrews put up a valiant fight but would go down in defeat at the 2:38 mark. After the bout, Stevens continued to pound away on the prone body of Andrews, leaving him incapacitated to the point that Andrews would have to be carried to the back unconscious. The New $outh$ide Playas of J-Money and Will B. Smooth made their CWF debut as a team in a very successful venture, defeating the much hated Alex Adonis and Jay Sinn. Smooth would pick up the pinfall in 10:19. Up next, Rob "The Bull" McBride made short work of Dynasty member "Tremendous" Trent Wylde, pinning him in 2:55. "Red Hot" Tim Blaze once again issued his $500 5-minute challenge and even bumped up the pay to a $1000 only to have the challenge answered by the "Mighty" Orlo Helmer, who destroyed Blaze in 27 seconds. Orlo celebrated with the fans by throwing the money to everyone at ringside! The Finals of the 3rd Annual Rising Generation League tournament once again concluded at "Battlecade." The RGL tournament has certainly been the stepping stone for many of the young superstars in the Mid-Atlantic territory, as this year sure seems to be following in the same direction. Kid Justice and Jesse Ortega squared off in what was arguably the best match in the careers of both men. In a back and forth struggle, Justice's quickness prevailed as he was being suplexed back into the ring by Ortega, he slipped over into an O'Connor Roll, and pinned Ortega in 10:47, to capture the first major championship of his young career! Despite having their belts stolen a month earlier by Twisted Aggression (Mitch Norris and Sean Powers), the Mid-Atlantic Tag Team Champions Brass Munkey and American Steel Ninja, were still in action, squaring off against the deadly combination of Drake Tungsten and Matt Houston. Due to the championship straps being missing, the bout would be non-title. Munkey pinned Tungsten in 5:22 following their "Double Dragon" but immediately upon the fall, all power in the CSA went out with only the metallic sound of a chain and the screams from the champions to be heard. Once the power in the building was finally restored, Munkey and Ninja were lying unconscious in the ring with their previously stolen tag titles by their side as well as the all-too familiar steel chain, which just so happens to be the weapon of choice of Twisted Aggression. Mid-Atlantic TV Champion Mikael Yamaha certainly had his back against a wall at the anniversary show, having to make up for three mandatory title defenses ALL in one night, squaring off against Xsiris, Kamakazi Kid, Number Man in a "Fatal 4 Way" match. Yamaha was running scared for the first portion of the contest, seeing VERY limited ring action until he was finally cornered and spent the remainder of the bout trying desperately to hold onto the title as manager Brad Stutts watched almost helplessly from ringside. Kamakazi Kid and Xsiris' high-flying abilities would actually end up costing them a possible championship as they both would crash to the arena floor, leaving Number Man with Yamaha inside the squared circle. With precious seconds left, Number Man nailed the shining wizard, but was unable to get the final 3 count before the 10:00 TV time limit expired much to the disgust of Number Man and the fans and to the delight of Yamaha and Stutts. In what could come back to haunt him, Number Man made a very hasty request at the conclusion of the bout, requesting 5 additional minutes for a one-on-one TV Title match with Yamaha on January 8th. However, in order to receive that very bout, Yamaha and Stutts forced Number Man to put up his mask "win, lose, or draw." With Yamaha and Stutts' persistence that Number Man is indeed the retired Gemini Kid, January 8th could prove to be the final Mid-Atlantic appearance ever for Gemini Kid if their claim is indeed true. Number Man stated that he realizes what this will mean but that being able to take away the title and "kick Yamaha's butt" for 15-minutes will be the best send off anyone could ask for. Before the epic Mid-Atlantic Heavyweight Title bout began, Commissioner Cross made one more major announcement. Cross informed everyone that Brad Attitude would be the special guest referee for the championship bout! Converse made a premature celebration with this announcement as Attitude quickly showed that by no means was he going to allow Converse to dictate his officiating. Edsel and Converse then went on to have another classic contest; in what has been a long, illustrious series... and quiet possibly, for the final time ever. Edsel controlled the match early, but all momentum was stopped in a heartbeat as Wylde interfered, holding Edsel's arm between the ropes from the outside and allowing Converse to come off the top rope, nearly snapping the champion's arm in two. Edsel lay outside the ring screaming in intense pain as Converse and Wylde forced him back inside for a hopeful submission victory. Edsel continued to fight through the pain and not tap out, but as soon as the momentum began to swing back his way, Wylde's interference would again be his downfall. With Wylde distracting Attitude, Converse took advantage once again, this time with the championship belt he once owned, flying off the top rope and smashing it into the forehead of Edsel who dropped to the mat in a collapsed heap. Attitude turned around, oblivious to what had transpired, and made a very hesitant, and disgusted three count at the 14:29 mark, thereby declaring "Slick" Ric Converse as the Mid-Atlantic Heavyweight Champion for a second time.
However, the series of shocking events for "Battlecade" were far from done. A post-match argument erupted between Converse, Wylde, and Attitude which ended with Converse finally turning on his former partner, needing him no longer now that he "had accomplished his ultimate goal." With Attitude on the canvas left to vie for himself, a dazed Corey Edsel was just starting to come to from the brutal belt shot. Edsel looked at the man that had just pinned him for the Heavyweight title.... and then look down upon the man had just counted Corey's own shoulders down and was now being throttled by his former teammates... instead of helping Attitude Edsel walked away. With Converse and Wylde continuing to beat upon Attitude, Edsel left the CSA with fans sarcastically remarking "Thanks for the help Corey." Then, in the final blow to their fallen "partner," Wylde pulled out the "Dynasty Hair Cream" and smeared it into Attitude's face, causing him to scream frantically, his eyes burning from the application. Wrestlers rushed from the back, water and towels in hand, in a desperate effort to flush out Attitude's eyes and prevent any long-term damage from being inflicted. As their fallen teammate was being attended to, the remnants of the Dynasty left in celebration, with Ric Converse officially being a two-time Mid-Atlantic Heavyweight Champion.

STATUS OF BRAD ATTITUDE / TRENT WYLDE / RIC CONVERSE SITUATION
Brad Attitude was rushed to Alamance Regional Hospital to have his eyes checked after having some kind of dangerous cream or gel smeared in his eyes by Trent Wylde. The preliminary diagnosis is that Attitude has suffered some partial blindness and was referred to a specialist for additional treatment this week.
Due to the nature of these serious actions, Commissioner William L. Cross reviewed the film from Saturday's post match events to determine if any official actions would be necessary. Commissioner Cross has suspended Trent Wylde from the CWF Mid-Atlantic indefinitely. Cross has informed Wylde that he can not petition for reinstatement for at least 3 months but there was no guarantee that he would even consider it. Cross also informed Wylde that he is suggesting that Brad Attitude press charges for assault with a deadly weapon against Wylde and will turn over the video footage to the authorities if needed.
After hearing of this, we have been informed that Trent Wylde has fled the state and his whereabouts are currently unknown.
Everyone in the CWF Mid-Atlantic wishes Brad Attitude a speedy recovery.
