PCW Episode 2: TNA Invasion
PCW has crowned its first heavyweight champion but... Stephen Platinum is concerned about the inevitable lull following such a big event. He brings in former TNA star "Consequences Creed" to add a spark to the show. The stakes increase as Platinum tries to position the promotion for a television distribution deal.
Full story transcipt below:
Stephen Platinum, PCW Promoter:
- Alright. Here we go. Here we go. Real quick. Real quick. Let's just run through things real fast. Quick, fast, in a hurry.
Platinum (interview):
- My hope for tonight's show is that it does not suck.
Platinum (pre show locker room speech):
- Back here is Jeffrey who is going to referee for us and see if he likes doing our thing. He's certainly got the hair for pro wrestling. Good job. Good job.
Platinum (interview):
- We crowned a champ last week, Shane Marx, that had the best match we've ever done. I'm afraid we might go through a slump tonight to be honest which is why I brought in a couple of different faces to make things a little edgy.
Platinum (pre show locker room speech):
- Music out of nowhere hits. Austin "No Consequences" Creed, recently fired from TNA comes to the ring.
Austin "No Consequences Creed" Watson, Professional Wrestler (interview):
- I really didn't do anything to get fired or to get released. In wrestling, if they're not using you, at a certain point in time, they're using other people, you just might get let go. And that was my case, I just hadn't been used for a while so they just let me go.
Watson (in ring):
- I am the superstar that has come here to PCW.
Watson (interview):
- There's a lot of good trainees here that are going through what I went through. So I kind of felt for them and so I decided to help start training and everything and once they started doing shows, if I was around I'd come help out. And that's what I'm doing here tonight.
Platinum (watching show on monitor):
- I'm so glad we got Chris Farley to be our ref. 'You guys can't do that!'
Platinum (watching show on monitor):
- They're excited. They're happy. They wrestled a good match.
Platinum (post show speech):
- I was worried about this show because the last show was so big. Tonight's was a touch rocky. You know whose name we never said one time? Austin Consequences F---ing Creed. That's whose name we did not announce one time. You guys gotta pick up the slack on s--- like that. Did we get a pop off of Creed coming out? Yes. When some of them figured out who he was.
Platinum (interview):
- I'm nervous because now a national TV thing looks more in the offing than ever. That it's very possible and I don't know if we're ready for that yet.
Platinum (post show speech):
- Watch your s--- with an ultra critical eye because if our thing takes off soon, and it might. If we get a TV show, it's got to look great. When your promo goes on and on and on and on...

Platinum (post show speech):
- ...you're taking the good will of the fans and how much they're going to pop for you and you're stretching it out. And so the reaction is muted and less... (interrupted)
Kurt Kilgore, Heel Announcer (outside locker room):
- You know what? God didn't want you to be born. Enjoy your Easter!
(Laughter inside locker room)
Platinum (post show speech):
- ... Did he need to talk to them for 4 minutes? I don't even know how that conversation came about. You know who that is talking to him? Probably 5 people that are going to want to see him get his d--- kicked in by Conscience at Eyedrum. That's what the f--- I'm talking about. I don't even know what that was about. I've never heard a heel invoke Easter before.
