Quartz

Houston, we have Werdz. A smaller package of Werdz on this show, as to be expected when it's a major show/PPV, but this still has a ton of good stuff on it. As always, please find time to tell me what your favorite moment was? Speakerguy is back. Enjoy the Werdz:

I look forward to reading the words, if Friday's stream quality was any indication, it should be great. Anyways, it appears I was hacked and someone else did the Werdz for me this week. Enjoy.

The sounds of hysterical laughter echoing through a blank void bring us into the scene. Pure black surrounded by lights of consciousness peppered throughout the darkness. The laugher continues. Slowly but surely, a figure begins to manifest inside the mind... From foot to head, the red boots of Inness Quartz begin to phase into view. The manifestation lunges forward repeatedly, as more and more is revealed from the brooding red iteration of Quartz. As it continues to phase into view piece by piece, the chest and head come into view. Inness Quartz stands with his long beard and the red streak running through his thin hair. A version of Inness we have not seen in a long time, furiously swinging his arms in front of him. The laughter grows louder as we see the other side... Standing opposite of Inness is the current image of the Quartz we know. He quells his laughter for a moment to open his eye, revealing the deep blue we know to be associated with the New Storm, Ijitu Quartz. The hands of Inness continue swinging through the body of Ijitu. Ijitu laughs at the futile attempts as they swing directly through him. The view peers slightly to Ijitu's left, seeing a despondent Intell Quartz, arms crossed, watching the scene in front of him like an older brother watching his younger siblings fight. Intell: This may not have been a good plan, don't you agree? Ijitu turns to Intell, still laughing all the while. Ijitu: Are you kidding me? This is the most entertaining he's ever been! Have you ever seen the big guy show so much emotion? Intell: ... Ijitu: Look at him swing! He wants to hit me so badly! Hahahaha! Inness stops swinging for a moment, simply staring back at Ijitu. Ijitu: Oh, what's wrong? Ijitu: Boy... Control of the body has certainly taken a lot out of you! Ijitu: It's almost like I told you this would happen! Ijitu smirks and leans down at the exhausted Inness Quartz... Ijitu: You are not cut out to represent him... To represent us. You have always known that. Hell, didn't you hear all those people while I was locked in this prison? Ijitu: They called out for me. Every challenger that faced you... They called for me. Ijitu: Nobody wants you. They never have. I've always been the one to represent- Inness: SHUT UP! Ijitu perks up smugly, surprised at the outburst. Inness: You... You have never cared about representing Isaiah... You never cared about representing the person we were bred from... About representing all that we are. You... Inness: You have only ever cared about taking control... You don't want to represent him... You want to be him. Ijitu is initially perturbed by the accusation, but refuses to let the conflicted look control his face for very long. Ijitu: No, "Big Frog"... I don't. Ijitu: ...I don't want to be him. Ijitu: Because "he" is a coward who fled to his mind when his life got tough! He stands back up and watches Inness' eyes follow him from the void below. Ijitu: ...I am him. I was created to be the version of him he - and both of you - could NEVER be. Intell's eyes dart up from Inness to Ijitu at the claim. Ijitu: And I am glad I am not as stupid as you are. Ijitu: Your weaknesses have never been so clear, friendo! The moment you lost consciousness in the hospital... I had you right where I wanted you. I led you to believe you were in control for so long. Hell, we even had that dipshit Joe Deaver believe us! Inness flinches forward at the mention, nearly taking another fruitless swing. Ijitu: Enjoy the mind, Inness. I've spent far too long in this place letting you have your little victory lap. I even had you convinced that I cared about your existence. Ijitu: I've got business with our brother. Someone who actually deserves my attention, unlike either of you. Ijitu: ...and neither of you can stop me. I control this vessel now. Ijitu turns his back to both and gestures towards Intell. Ijitu: Cry to your therapist about it. Ijitu begins walking away as Intell and Inness watch him go... Inness perks back up one final time... Inness: You WILL NOT WIN! Inness: I'm going to get out again! Ijitu smirks at the pointless shouting, Inness on his hands and knees inside the mind as he continues to shout. Inness: You turned your back on Cohle and I came back! Inness: You turned your back on Isaiah and I CAME BACK! Inness: YOU TURNED YOUR BACK ON DEAVER AND I WILL... Inness: COME... Inness: BA- Ijitu slams a door in the face of the mind, re-entering reality. He looks around the room to see Harvey Hamilton Ocean. He smirks at his brother and lifts his hand to greet him as the scene cuts to black.

Earlier this afternoon, reports circulated throughout social media regarding changes being made to the Terra Daturas vs Empress Wrestlution match. Over the last several months since being hired by EMP herself, TOG (Shianne Lovelace and Kameyo Hada) have assisted the general manager Empress in everything from accompanying her to the ring to interfering in matches to home invasions on Empress' orders, allegedly. It appears that after speculation, TOG will not be a factor at Wrestlution. Two weeks ago, Terra Daturas put her OCW career on the line for a chance to fight the general manager, desperate for an opportunity to humble the woman who has ruled over OCWFed for nearly a year. Daturas and Empress' rivalry stretches back to when both women were rookies in OCWFed. Interestingly enough, there have always been external factors influencing their contests. Las Femmes Brutales, Kasstianity, Valkyrie in the 'Magical Girl Gang', Ashley Moore, and now TOG, have all played key roles in the rivalry over the years. Since TOG burst onto the scene, Kameyo and Shianne have been ever present and have been as much of a thorn in Terra Daturas' side as anyone in her venture to take down Empress. Especially after falling victim to the trap set by TOG on last night's episode of RIOT 605, Terra is aware of the overwhelming factor they could play in her match with Empress next weekend at Wrestlution. Earlier today, OCW Owner and Founder Jaysin Clinton Sensation announced that all parties will be barred from ringside in the 'Lution' showdown, including TOG and Sue Plex. Despite Shianne and Sue scheduled to battle inside the Future Investment Ladder Match, clearly the officials within OCW wanted no questions in the much anticipated showdown. Sensation also mentioned that there would be "Very severe consequences" for any contracted wrestler if they were to interfere in the high-stakes bout. With Wrestlution 17 just a short time away, things continue to heat up. Stay tuned to OCWFed.com for more updates on all of the developments in and around the spectacle of Wrestlution and be sure to join in at 3PM ET on Twitch.tv/ocwfed on Saturday, July 8th and Sunday, July 9th.

We fade into a massive boardroom. Most of the chairs are stacked in a corner, the lights slowly flicker on as a small handful of people walk into the room and sit in the large chairs at the oversized desk. The view focuses on the door as the last man to enter the room does so with a very serious look on his face. Thomas Archer, former OCW International and Pride champion and current owner of United Archer Enterprises. Archer steps forward and places both of his hands down at the head of the table, palms flat on the dusty surface that looks as if it hadn’t been used in a while. He looks around at the rest of the higher-ups in UAE. Sitting nearest Archer is the loyal UAE soldier, Brian Feinstein, he shares the uncertain look on his face that Archer does as he peers around at the other nameless executives in his office. Archer: Look my underlings, I truly understand that times have been… uneasy… Perhaps you even feel I have been an absentee landlord. However, since I hung up my wrestling boots I’ve learned a few good things about this organization and subsequently, about each of you.. Archer: I learned that I am, and let’s be brutally honest here, the only person in this room with any business sense, marketing sense, common sense and fashion sense. The faces around the room start to look around nervously. Archer: Failed venture after failed venture. We’ve lost half of our suppliers, why? Because you’re all incompetent. I mean Christ, why did we sell video game controllers that we knew would disconnect the moment you went below sea level! Archer takes a deep breath and stands tall, turning his back to the table. Archer: As you’re all aware, I have been exploring all possible options on how to bring United Archer Enterprises to the next level, it has not been an easy process, I was advised that slave labour has recently been outlawed alongside child labour… That’s been two of the pillars of our organization, employing everyone! However, your great leader, as always, has found the perfect solution. Executive Doug: We found a buyer?! We found a buyer!? Archer: There’s no “we” in team Doug, but there is a ME. As previously outlined, UAE was never up for sale unless all of my conditions were met, one of which was that I would remain a titan of the industry. I guided us through the Cohlerona virus after all! Archer: I did, however, find an investor, someone willing to pump their blood, energy, and more importantly their money into UAE. I refuse to allow another one of my creations to crumble in front of my eyes because of you bitch cowards. Archer: And so, let me proudly introduce you to my newest partner, my co-owning comrade of UAE… The entire room peers over to the now cracked door. The clicking of Ferragamo Oxfords on the hardwood floor below echoes through the room. Archer turns to his left to extend his hand. The camera slowly pans up the detailed, Italian pinstripe suit until it reaches the face of the man who fills it out. Dennis Dillinger extends his hand and gleefully shakes with Archer as the men in the boardroom can do nothing but look on. Dennis: Hello, gentlemen! Today is a new day for us all. As of 12:15am this morning, Dennis Dillinger Enterprises has reached an agreement with United Archer Enterprises. Dennis: There are many strong assets within this group and I know a good investment when I see one. Dennis: Thomas Archer and Dennis Dillinger… Or as you can call us going forward… Dillinger United LLC. Dennis: I heard most other potential partners were not interested in maintaining this fine man’s services, and as that was a prerequisite to the deal being made, my only regret was not shaking this man’s hand sooner. Dennis: The future remains bright for Dillinger United. Doug: So what does this mean for us!? Dennis: Doug, you seem to have a hard time listening. Dillinger looks over at Archer with an annoyed smirk on his face, Archer shrugs and quickly nods his head in the affirmative. Dillinger: There is no more “us” as far as you’re concerned. You are all fired. Get the hell out of my boardroom. The men jump to their feet in shock, shouting over one another at Archer. Archer: You better get out of here like he said, the weaponised squirrels have been released, we gave them crossbows as a signing on bonus. The group of men scurry out of the room, shouting and panicking at their newfound unemployment. One man stays behind with Dillinger and Archer, watching them all leave. Feinstein: Maybe that was a smidge harsh? Little bit too much, maybe? Feinstein gets no answer so he turns to look at both Archer and Dillinger staring back at him. Feinstein: Anyways, sir, I was- Archer: Brian, for now I need you to step aside, and trust the process. Dillinger simply smiles at Feinstein, who continues to stammer over his words in disbelief. Archer: Thank you for your council, my Ivrim chief, I will be in touch. Do not worry, trust the process. Let it play out. Feinstein: No-no-no you can’t do this!? WHAT?! Dillinger steps around Archer and leans down to meet Feinstein face-to-face. Dennis: You’d better catch up to the rest of them so you don’t miss the Uber XL. Archer: No, Brian will be taking the company air-ship as part of his severance package. Feinstein grits his teeth and storms out of the room as Dillinger leans back up. Archer can do nothing but simply watch him rush out, his tense looking face not moving a muscle the entire time. Archer: ...So then. Dennis: Yes, my friend! Everything is a go. I’ll send my people to clean this disgusting place up, no offense. Archer rolls his eyes. Dennis: Let’s go, partner. We have a flight to catch. The two men walk out of the room as the lights click off, the camera focusing on the UAE logo one final time as we fade out…

The Werdz | Episode 1 | Turmoil 297

Story by Marciano Rubio | May 24th, 2023 Reports from inside OCW are that a new segment is set to be produced and workshopped for the OCW audience. Our sources around the pro wrestling juggernaut tell us that OCW is looking for even more ways to push its content to their passionate fanbase. From what we hear, this is not meant to be something we see on OCW television or attached to any one OCW performer, but rather a company wide initiative to reach a larger audience. The segment is set to be beta tested following Turmoil 297 and would be released Satuday, May 27th. While we do know that it is meant to be an additional avenue for OCW fans to engage and absorb the content from week to week, similar to "The Turnbuckle" that emerged late last year. Time will tell if the segment is received well or whether OCW has long-term plans for further production. OCW continues to try to expand the content's reach and this appears to be another attempt to further that fan engagement. With the drama and legal issues surrounding OCW stars Daryl Webster, Tre Golden, Nick Peters, Marisa Welch, and Deborah Soto, OCW is due for a positive project that could help their outward public relations. Stay tuned for Saturday, May 27th to see what the rumors are all about!

Alright, between Marisa/Deborah, Nick Peters, and now this? OCW is going to have to hire a fucking PR Dept. CMON GUYS YOURE EMBARRASSING THE BRAND

Tweets and reports circulated around the world of pro wrestling late last night, as it was being rumored that two OCW competitors were involved in a physical altercation that required several others to separate. Only two wrestlers have been specifically named in the alleged incident, though we know at least 10 OCW contracted wrestlers were at the studio for a media-shoot. WhereCulture was initially uncertain about the validity of the reports, a recent update confirms that the police were indeed called to the studio at around 7:54pm Sunday night. The trouble comes at a bad time for one of the principle players in the brawl, Deborah Soto. Soto, who returned to OCW 2 weeks ago, apparently confronted Marisa Welch-Mac regarding their segment on Turmoil last Friday. According to sources who were at the studio, both women were scheduled to appear at the photoshoot, but were booked far apart. Apparently, Soto arrived long before her scheduled appointment and used the opportunity to pick a fight with Welch-Mac. What began as a verbal remark ended up escalating into a shoving match with multiple punches thrown. Thankfully, the staff and fellow OCW wrestlers who were there at the time were able to quickly separate the two as police arrived. No charges were filed for the scuffle and Marisa is said to have offered to pay for any damage to the equipment at the studio. OCW founder and chairman Jaysin Clinton Sensation declined to comment on the situation, though the prevailing rumor is that Soto has been fined and suspended for this upcoming RIOT 602 show. We have not heard anything regarding potential punishment for Marisa Welch-Mac, but clearly these kinds of dangerous public stunts are doing no favors for OCW's image. Soto is still amidst a legal battle with at least 2 independent promotions due to her use of their championships on national TV without their approval. Needless to say, the Gramazon's return to OCW has been chock full of controversy. RIOT 602 airs on Friday, May 12th at 7pm ET. It is the final show before OCW's first pay-per-view event of the new season, Road 2 Glory, which takes place on Saturday, May 20th.

Pick your favorite segment. Your favorite RP. It doesn't have to be a 40 page breakdown. Let me hear what you love about OCW. That love is what drives me. I won't speak for anyone else. Tell me what makes you happy. You all deserve to be happy.

I like the content. Establisher promo. For the Morrison Method, make sure you're spacing each part one one more & bolding your name too, so it would be A camera would cut in to Timmy bench pressing a hefty amount of weight. Timmy: 197. 198. 199. 200!

April 29th, 2023 As is typical in the wild world of professional wrestling, it seems we cannot go more than a couple of days without learning of a new scandal or controversy. This weekend, WhereCulture learned that Deborah Soto has been stripped of at least two of her championships following her controversial appearance on OCW's 'RIOT 601' on Friday. The world of professional wrestling was set ablaze over the last 3 months, as the independent scene was taken over by the dominant Deborah Soto. Soto, formerly known in OCWFed as "Debbie D.", recently resigned with the company after what she called "absurd" negotiations when her contract expired in December of 2022. While the contract issues quietly flew under the radar, Deborah wasted no time taking to social media to explain her situation. In January, Soto tweeted she was "No longer with OCWFed" and that "the ball is in their court". Seemingly, the officials in OCWFed were not comfortable with Deborah's requests and wanted to take more time to decide. Instead, Soto opted to remove herself from negotiations and appeared out of nowhere in Los Angeles' largest independent promotion LAPW in late January, calling out then champion Tonya Termuch. The appearance was a fun surprise for many in the pro wrestling world at the time, but after Tonya was easily dismantled at the hands of Soto, many close to the West Coast independent scene were vocal on social media about how they felt about Deborah Soto. Soto was brought up in the OCW Combat Center starting back in 2015, eventually making her debut on Ambition against Lotus FloJo (Black Cherry) in 2019. It is considered unusual for someone with no prior experience on the independents to receive such a spot on the card in their first match, but Soto clearly had bet on herself. It appears the tensions between the independent scene's most loyal fans and competitors and the "mainstream" Deborah Soto have finally come to a breaking point. During OCWFed's weekly TV program, Deborah Soto returned for the first time since her contract expired. Soto interrupted Marisa Welch-Mac's segment and completely ignored her, but what stood out the most was Soto opting to carry the Rio Grande Pro Wrestling Women's Championship and the Los Angeles Pro Wrestling Women's Championship to the ring. From what we know, Soto had spoken with each organization she currently held championships with to disclose to them that she would be returning to OCWFed in April. OCWFed wrestlers are not explicitly prohibited from competing in other promotions while under contract, but are generally not seen often due to the demanding schedule that comes with being a part of OCWFed. Soto and the organizations agreed to a compromise that would allow her to promote her return as champions of their promotions, provided she would return to defend them when she could. It seems that plan is now out the window, as both Rio Grande Pro Wrestling and Los Angeles Pro Wrestling have officially announced via their Twitter accounts that Deborah Soto will be stripped of her titles immediately following her appearance on RIOT 601. According to sources, Deborah never disclosed her intention to carry the belts on OCWFed television, which understandably upset the promotions. While LAPW has decided to simply strip the champion and move on with an upcoming tournament, Rio Grande has decided to serve Deborah Soto with court papers as well. Soto is being accused of breach of contract due to her actions and will face litigation in the coming months. As of this post, we have not yet heard from Club UK or the revived XPW promotion, of which Deborah Soto still holds championships in. It is expected that both promotions will follow suit and strip Deborah, though there is no indication whether she will face lawsuits from any other promotion. The 6'1 OCWFed star was resigned in early April after taking over the independent scene, but unfortunately will likely not be appearing with any of her championships on the weekly TV program going forward. When reached for comments, Soto had this to say. Deborah Soto: These little cretins should be thanking me, hun. I put each of them on the map the second I stepped in their tacky little ring and I did the same when I walked out with their titles on RIOT. Deborah Soto: If they wanna get all hurt because I didn't tell them every detail, that's fine. I know the score, so they can keep their titles... Because I know I have my eyes on even bigger titles anyways. Deborah Soto: It just so happens the current champion here in the big leagues is an old "friend" of mine, so take them. I am the biggest star this company has ever seen and soon enough, you will all see that, and that's one hunnid. Soto is schedule to take on Kasstianity's Alexa Hayes when she makes her in-ring return on Turmoil 296 on May 5th on twitch.tv/ocwfed. Though she may not appear with the championships going forward, Deborah has clearly proven herself as the "Queen of the Indies" in such a remarkably short time, and outlets across the world of pro wrestling anxiously await her first match back in the company since losing to the current world champion Jasmin Kaffee at the Clash 2022. We will continue to cover this story as it unfolds and will be sure to post any updates as we learn them.

Story by Pro Wrestling Ultra Magazine Meet Soraia "Sarah" Macedo - a 19 year old Brazilian pro wrestling prospect hailed by some as a "prodigy" on the independent scene. After moving away from her parents at just 16 to live in the United States, Sarah was fortunate to make many friends in the greater San Antonio, Texas area. Her fluency in English and Spanish (along with her native Portuguese) certainly helped, but her never-say-die attitude and overwhelmingly positive mindset are no doubt the key reasons why she was able to find success and community at such a young age. After wrestling under a mask for her first 2 years in America, Sarah burst out as herself at 18 years old, debuting in February of 2022. While initially a fun inclusion on the card, it soon became clear that the young woman was destined for great things. Rio Grande Pro Wrestling (RGPW) saw this potential and the promoter made sure to spotlight Macedo more and more as 2022 continued. Since then, Sarah Macedo has become a hot commodity on the independent scene, accepting bookings across the United States as well as regular appearances in Rio Grande. Sarah's bright personality may overshadow her tough upbringing, but she has never once let it distract her from her dream of becoming a star in professional wrestling: Sarah: For as long as I can remember, I have been in love with this sport. I remember once staying with a friend as my parents were on employment assignment. There was a replay on the television for Wrestlution in Las Vegas. Sarah: I was so starstruck to see so many people - all of the lights and pageantry. Leonhart holding a huge, beautiful championship. I can recall the images of twisted steel. Morrison and Valmont. The beautiful combination of competition and showmanship. I knew that had to be me one day. Macedo was more than happy to sit down with us to share some of her story. Just 4 weeks ago, Sarah was crowned the newest RGPW Women's Champion after defeating luchadora star HYRO. Sarah's first championship was a cause for celebration in the area. Sarah: I'm so grateful for everyone and everything that helped me get to this point, but I am not content. I want to hold a championship up in the main event of Wrestlution in OCWFed. That is my dream. I want other little girls and boys to see me the same way I saw Leonhart all those years ago... As a superhero. Tune in this Friday to OCW's return to television, Turmoil 295, for a special in-depth look at Sarah Macedo's first defense of her newly won championship & more of her inspiring story.

I refuse to mark out. But I will offer you a helping dose of sadness instead.

At least someone has taste
