Hellraiser wins first ever TV Title
Hellraiser Hark became the first ever NWA-SW Television Champion last Friday defeating Bret Bonz in the finals but he was not a happy camper when his spoils of victory was a cheap 2-foot tall trophy instead of the traditional belt as expected. The new champion blasted promoter Ken Taylor calling hims a cheap SOB, and took his fury out on the trophy and smashing it into many pieces in protest. "This is not high school wrestling where they give trophies, this is professiobnal wrestling and that means you get a belt not a trophy. This is embarassing...this is insulting." Promoter Ken Taylor was later ased about presenting a trophy and said that the new TV belt was not ready yet due to the manufacturer getting being behind on orders, and therefore unable to make the promise date of May 20. He then added that Hellraiser should have not have destroyed the trophy because now he will have nothing to show the world he's the TV champion until the belt does arrive. "Sure, it was a cheap looking trophy but why would anyone want to spend a lot of money on something that will simply be replaced in the coming weeks," said Taylor. Hellraiser says he is not buying that statement from the promoter calling it was an "intended slap" in the face because Taylor and himself have some history of not getting along. "He (Taylor) knew there was a real good possibility I would win teh title because I had more ring experience and size over Bonz. He wanted his wrestling academy student (Bonz) to win it, so he just insults me in front of all the fans. Do you really think he would have allowed that cheap ass looking trophy to be presented to Bonz? I don't think so!"
HELLRAISER HARK! FIRST EVER
NWA-SOUTHWEST TELEVISION
CHAMPION!

Was there ever any doubt? Really? That this would not be the case! Maybe in the feeble mind of Ken Taylor, who from the beginning seems to have created some sort of vendetta against the Hellraiser. But our boy would not be denied the victory. He was however, denied the gold upon his win. What's the deal with this? Does Ken Taylor not have enough respect for his own Television Champion, to present him with an actual belt? This is not high school wrestling, this is professional wrestling. Upon his win, Hellraiser was presented with a trophy! There is no doubt that there is a belt for this title. It is obvious that Ken Taylor just refuses to give it to the Hellriaser, who he despises. But this despite and lack of respect goes both ways, as Hellraiser proved when he mutilated the trophy that Tommy Daniels tried to award him with last night. In the midst of screaming several obscenities, Hellraiser made it quite clear that this is not acceptable, and he does not appreciate not only not being ranked sufficiently in the heavyweight rankings, but also being the only NWA champion who does not carry a belt! But now, Hellraiser holds all the cards. Because unless Ken Taylor has no respect for the title that he created, just by virtue of elimination, he must rank Hellraiser no less than #2 for the duration of his title reign. As Hellraiser went on to say in his interview, if something doesn't change, he'll be forced to break Ken Taylor in half. Brett Bonz felt the fury, Ken Taylor coud be next!
HELLRAISER GOES FOR GOLD
(commentary by Hellraiser)

Friday night, NWA-Southwest introduces their new Television Title, and crowns the first Television Champion. The final match of an 8-man tournament which began last Friday resulted in a match of Hellraiser Hark vs. Brett Bonz. Some say a mismatch, more like a mishap. You may ask if destroying junior heavyweights makes me feel like a bad ass. To that I say, yes. I didn't book these matches. So when I drive him thru the matt, it's not on my conscience. Ken Taylor has been to undermind my ascent up the ladder in the NWA-SW rankings, but like I said Friday night, I've now forced Ken Taylor's hand. Because when I win the Television Title, he will be forced to rank me no less than #2 in the heavyweight division. Not only will I teach the green horn Brett Bonz a few lessons, but I will destroy him with all of my wrath, rage, and fury. So Brett Bonz, put your game face on because it's time to play. And in this game, Hellraiser brings the violence.
MEMORIAL WEEKEND
(commentary by Fury Staff as normal)
05/21/01
On 05/25, this coming Friday night, NWA-SW 3rd Annual Memorial Day Spectacular. Jake the Snake Roberts comes back to Fort Worth. The Texas Heavyweight Title is up for grabs. Mike Thunder defends his World Jr. Heavyweight Title. The Texas Jr. Heavyweight Title is on the line. The Texas Tag Team Titles are on the line. And the new NWA Television Champ will be crowned. Our own Furious Hellraiser Hark plans to be the man. Definitely a show you don't want to miss. TCW will not be holding a show this weekend, so feel free to leave town after the NWA show Friday night. TCW will be back the following weekend, where Hellraiser is teamed with Pittbull Kevin Dark going against the TCW Heavyweight Champ, Striker, and the cookie cutting Beast. And with Hellraiser meeting Beast twice this past weekend, there's fuel on that fire. Not to mention, the feud with Striker. I don't know where the Pittbull stands with these two guys, but it should make for an intense match with lots of animosity. Don't forget to go to NWA this Friday. Every title is on the line and the new ones debut. You gotta see this.
BRING THE VIOLENCE
05/04/01
Who will be Striker's nemisis now that Gary Tool is gone? Hellraiser has made his goal to be the next TCW Heavyweight Champ and no one will get in his way. Not the pup, Kevin Dark. Not Epi the Phat Somoian. There's no one in TCW to challenge Hellraiser or to keep him from attaining the goal. Not even that long haired freak, Pimp Dragon. With the up and coming tag tournament, maybe his quest will be made just that much more simple.
The TCW belt is not the only belt Hellraiser is hunting for. Just last week, Hellraiser was one move away from pinning NWA Southwest Texas, FlopStuff Hernandez. And Ken Taylor has the audacity to not rank Hellraiser?!?! But Hellraiser has made his presence known in the NWA and has no intentions of letting anyone, the champ or the promoter included, of forgetting that he is there. How could Ken Taylor not rank Hellraiser when the NWA World Jr. Heavyweight graduated from the wrestling academy that Hellraiser founded? If FlopStuff is able to retain his championship when he puts it up against Northcutt next week, Hellraiser knows he's got his number, and it's just a matter of time. So FlopStuff, put your game face on because it's time to play. And in this game, Hellraiser brings the violence.
