Nate Ortiz Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 The OCW Vault is a look back at some of the best feuds and matches of the Golden Era of OCW. These were the days where Guy Fausto, Nick Kage, Versus, and others held the place now held by the likes of Parker, Dupree, and Dimsmore. I figure I’d start with my favorite feud to be apart of because of all the backstory that goes into it. It just so happens that I’m apart of it but I promise this won’t be the Nate’s looking back at his glory days thing. The first feud I’ll look back on is Icon Vs. Icon, the story of Nick Kage Vs. Nate Ortiz as story 3 years in the making. This story can go all the way back to 2005 when Revolution Inc. was formed. The members consisted of Versus, Blade, Nick Kage, and myself. I had the OCW Championship at the time, and Kage and Versus ended up winning the tag titles (They won the tag titles by defeating Me and my partner BM Diggs). At the very first Road 2 Glory I ended up going heel and turning on my faction. This led to the first Wrestlution where I defeated Tyranny to retain the OCW Championship only to lose it to Versus right after. I went away for a while and in that time Kage ended up as OCW Champion. Flash forward to December of 06 and RD Money is OCW Champion. Kage had been screwed out of the belt months before and he was involved in a long Hardcore title feud with Majin (Which I will get to in future installments.) At Chill Faktor RD faced off against two men known as the Ex Presidents. They were disguised in masks of Presidents Carter and Clinton. In that match RD lost the belt to Carter who was revealed to be Kage. http://www.ocwfed.net/recapppv/Chill%20Faktor%202006/10.htm The following month in the Re-match RD was screwed again and was being attacked by Kage and President Clinton who was revealed that night to be Geomon one of the original era’s greatest heels. It was at that moment that I made the save for RD. Forming Franchize Greatness a tag team that took on Geo and Kage at the second R2G. After that match RD went on to Main Event WL2 against Kage while I fought Geomon on that show. From there Kage would lose the title to RD, who would then lose the championship to me. During this run as champion do to some random circumstances at Consequence 2007 it would be the reunion of Revolution Inc in a 4 way elimination match for the OCW Championship. Kage would eliminate Blade and Versus, but I beat him to retain the belt. Kage would be very bitter about this. Flashforward to R2G 2008. By the time this PPV rolled around neither I nor Kage held a championship. I was deep into a feud with Our Hero, Mr. Sensation, my father in-law. We had a falling out and he cost me the OCW Championship, and many other things. This led to a reformation of Revolution Inc, and the formation of a heel group known as the Sensational Alliance. Kage had been involved in a long feud with AJ Phoenix over the OCW Championship but he was unable to regain the championship. One this night I teamed with Smythe to take on RD Money and an Imposter Nate. In this match Smythe ends up turning his back on Nate and helping RD and the Imposter win the match. In the aftermath I was beat down and the imposter was revealed to be Kage. http://www.ocwfed.net/recapppv/Road%20To%20Glory%202008/9.htm This put Kage and myself on a War path for WL3. Nate and Kage by this point both Nate and Kage had done everything there was to do in OCW. Both of us were Grand Slam Champions, and Hall of Fame wrestlers. We had done everything there was to do here except face each other. We were equals and the Yin and Yang of OCW. Nate being the ultimate good, and Kage being the ultimate bad. In the first match up I came out on top in what many considered a match of the night. http://www.ocwfed.net/recapppv/Wrestlution%202008/8.htm In the second encounter Kage came out on top. http://www.ocwfed.net/recapppv/EndGames%202008/8.htm This set up a Career VS Career match between the two of US. By this point we had both done all there was to do within OCW. We had feuded with just about everyone. And it came down to this for the both of us. One of us was going to legit end the career of our character with this match. This was the culmination of 3 years of storylines and matches. I really love this match because it also involves run ins by people who impacted our careers and we also had long lasting rivalries and friendships with. It was fitting that WL8 will be at the end of May probably May 26th which is almost the exact date of the anniversary of our final encounter which was May 25th, 2008 at Damnation. http://www.ocwfed.net/recapppv/Damnation%202008/10.htm This was the end for Nick, and a year later I’d pretty much be gone to. It was a long journey and it was some of the most fun I had being involved here. Please do take a look at the matches, let me know your thoughts. Also if you have any feuds you’d like me to look back on PM me. I plan to do this every couple weeks. Thanks for checking this out. Until next time OCW.

Parker Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 Good stuff Nate, as an OCW history buff I love this kind of stuff, and the final matc hbetween you 2 was pretty much one of the best ever. Going to watch some of the earlier matches for nostalgia sake :) I hope you eventually cover Nate vs Ma'Jin too..my favourite feud of all time. Also, RD still has some of the greatest theme music ever. 1 http://img41.imageshack.us/img41/5774/sig2uq.jpg 2 x Hardcore Champion (Longest defending OCW champ,19 defences) 1 x NA Champion 1 x Pride Champion 1 x TV Champion 2 x OCW World Heavyweight Champion F.I Winner 2012 MOTN vs Leonheart @ Wrestlution 7 'Don't worry about no one else, hows my hair look' - Tiberius Dupree 'Wipe you ass and go to bed' - Sensation to B17

Chris Mania Posted May 14, 2013 Posted May 14, 2013 Nice read Nate, fair play dude you've been in some crazy ass feuds and yeah Kage was OCW's alpha heel, when he first turned he was JBL with slicked back hair talking about how he was better than RD he was awesome, dude was tough on the sticks and handed out ass whoopings like parking tickets, one of my all time favourites to play against, matches were fast and furious.

Tiberius Dupree Posted May 15, 2013 Posted May 15, 2013 Kage had been screwed out of the belt months before and he was involved in a long Hardcore title feud with Majin (Which I will get to in future installments.) Two Main Eventers feuding over the Hardcore Title! I'll be waiting for that. 3 "You either die a hero or live long enough to become Nate Ortiz" - Drago Cesar "Let me make myself clear: you work for me. If I tell you to fight Blaine, you fight Blaine.

Brad Bauer Posted May 21, 2013 Posted May 21, 2013 (edited) RD Money was quite possibly the most over OCW character of all time. You had to believe the Hype when the music hit. I second Parker's nod to the entrance music. Further and lastly...the most brutal combatant I've ever stepped into the ring with. I've had ladder matches with Smythe, and no holds barred with Seth Irving. I could hang with Nate Ortiz until the deep waters on a good night. I have beaten Versus, The Steve, Leonheart, Valmont, and plenty of others, including a controversial pinfall over Nate Ortiz to win the Tag Team titles...Hell, I've beaten Double A and Seth Irving on 4 separate occasions each, going undefeated against both. Irving went on to be a formidable champion. But let me tell you, no victories over RD Money. I held my own and produced some offense, but in the end, there was no overcoming Greatne$$. No weapons, no funny business...Not in dark matches, not in aired matches. The man took damage like Double A's liver. There is a short list of guys that I could never beat: RD Money 0-2 Majin 0-1 Nate Ortiz (Singles) 0-2 : ( Might even be 0-3 Chris Mania 0-1....perhaps 0-2. Edit ** Memory serves me that Kage pretty much owned my ass as well. Honorable mention: Chris Ryder (I may hold one controversial win over Ryder that I can remember) RD money was the toughest...despite the whooping Majin put on me in our one and only match. Edited May 21, 2013 by Brad Bauer Forgot about Kage 1
