Power X- Breaking Point January 5, 2013


Once again, four brilliant nuggets of information coming from the greatest analytical mind in the wrestling world today. 

1. FUCK YOU, MARK HORTON
No, I'm not doing my best attempt at a Maia Lopez impression. Try Samantha Star instead. 

Confused?  You shouldn't be.  Let's go back to New Year's Eve, at When Worlds Collide, when Camilla Pazzini beat her sister in the middle of the ring.  It was a great way to close the book on 2012, and it certainly set up an interesting prospect for 2013.  After all, in FFW, if you beat a champion, that immediately puts you on the contender list for their title.  And who wouldn't want to see the Pazzzini Sisters duke it out over the greatest prize in Female Wrestling- or, even better- a rematch of one of the best matches of 2011 when Pazzini and Colleen clashed? 

I'd certainly buy into that more than I would Starla McCloud being a #1 contender.

Of course, that's all a moot point now.  Thanks to Stacey Mackenzie's continued quest to turn herself into a snivelling lackey, Camilla was injured, then Isabella got her kangaroo match with a battered Camilla, "won", and Camilla's gonna be out a couple months as she heals up.

But this isn't about whether or not Camilla's deserves a shot at the FFW Championship. Not quite. 

This is about the opening segment of the show, when Isabella stood in the ring like the whimpering little coward she is, shrilly trying to go on about how she shouldn't have to face her sister.  Of course, her lord and master Samantha Star was happily standing beside her, trying to help out, by telling the world that the match at When Worlds Collide didn't count, because it wasn't under the FFW banner.

Think on that, kids.  When Worlds Collide didn't count. 

Never mind that 17 of the 34 wrestlers on the show- a full half- were under the FFW banner, and another 3 are FFW alumni.  It didn't count.

Never mind that FFW officials refereed a large selection of the matches.  It didn't count.

Never mind that the show had been in the making for a goddamned year, and was widely looked forward to by the fans of FFW more than any other company.  It didn't count. 

Never mind that the show was assembled and booked by a Production manager and lead announcer for FFW.  It didn't count. 

So fuck you, Mark Horton, your little end of the year extravaganza doesn't count. Not when it exposes our paper champion! 

What a douchey way to treat one of the leading figures of this business, and an all around standup guy. 

Honestly, I'm impressed with Mark's professionalism after listening to Samantha Star pull down her pants and shit on his baby in the middle of the ring.  Had that been me, I would have slid into that ring, and strangled that spoiled ginger debutante to death with my headset cord.  It'd have been great television, and there's not a jury in the world that would have convicted me. 

And as far as I'm concerned, fuck YOU Samantha Star.  When Worlds Collide counts.  When Worlds Collide counts a LOT.

Because it's a perfect indication of what's going to hapen to Isabella when you aren't around to carry her. 



2. DYNASTY WARRIORS!
Well, chalk this one up for being a rare time I'm wrong.  Less than two months ago, in a moment that defined "WTF", the Williams Dynasty was formed.  I, along with most sane rational people, tended to roll our eyes.  After all, the Williams family seemed to be more akin to the television show "Dynasty" than any actual perennial dominance.

Not anymore.

Sure, we'll still get our "hunh?" moments from the family, but that's not to take away from the fact that these guys can have their moments.  Crystal Williams is entering her fourth consecutive month as the Evolution Champion.  And then there's Jennifer Williams, who, despite finishing 2012 with a losing record in official FFW matches (seriously!), still managed to win Future Shock VII and Chase for the Crown III.  

Oh, and the Television Championship in the first show of the year. 

Once Team Adonis returns to defending their titles again, the Williams Dynasty would have to be considered a good bet to take their shot after the Scarborough Fair gets theirs.  Even with the SF as champions, I wouldn't entirely rule out the possibility of Crystal and Jenny ending up with another set of belts to go around their waist. 


3. SHOW ME POTATO SALAD!
I'm going to go out on a limb and say that I'm probably not the only one who is looking forward to Thursday, strictly for the sole purpose of Misty and Kate putting all this stupidity behind them, becoming friends again, and leaving Ashley and Samara to kill each other by themselves in this ridiculous Whitmore vs. Steele family feud.  

Here's the deal: anyone who judges someone else strictly based on their last name is as stupid as someone who judges people strictly based on the color of their skin, their ethnicity, or their gender.  There's plenty of examples of family members being nothing like each other in FFW- the Pazzinis and Leavenworths being examples numero uno and dos on that list.  Look at Wendy and  the family she came from.  Hell, look at mine.  (Believe me, you do not want to meet my cousin). 

So yeah, let's hope for a good match Thursday between the Montagues and Capulets, but for the love of god, let it end then.   Or at least let Ashley and Samara end each other.  That'd be an ending far happier than the one the legends tell us we'll get. 

4. NOT A BAD NEW CROP
To kick off 2013, we had four new wrestlers debut at Breaking Point, and I have to confess- I was impressed with all four of them at a first glance.  Most notable of those was Kinsey Robinson, who's been more or less known to a lot of FFW/SVWers for a while now, and the singer made a fine debut with a win over Crystal Hate.  Indeed, so far, the only flaw I've seen in her would be her eyesight and character judgement, considering she actually loved Robbyn Helmsley. 

But I think the match that had us all talking was the triple threat opener.  All three women (Ariel, Candi and Alexis) pulled out all the stops in a very entertaining match, with Candi being the one to pull out the win at the end.  Still, I see a TON of potential in all three, and I look forward to seeing the woment develop here.  Just a warning though- FFW is a tough as nails fed.  It's a long, hard climb to the top. 

Two more women will be debuting at Velocity this week too, in Vanessa Bynum and Eleigha Circolone.  And shortly therafter, all six women will receive their true initiation to Femme Fatale Wrestling- their first ranking in the Power-X!

Before I leave you here tonight, I've heard the clamoring for MOAR MEMES, and, I'm happy to say, I'm not going to disappoint you guys tonight.  Here we have a new game that's hitting the trends- involving, who else, but the Queen of Games!







Alright, stay tuned for later this week, as I unveil the Ultimate rankings of 2012- the Power X-Travaganza.  Final tallies are being... tallied as we speak.  Then of course, Velocity on Thursday, followed by another Four Corners and the First Power X of 2013 as we steamroll towards Cold Blooded!
