OPENING
Well... before we get started I guess we should go ahead and get the big news out of the way.. I'm sure we've all heard the big announcement... yes Zelda Knite's contract has run out, yes she has walked away from the negotiation table... no, I have no idea what is going to happen to her title belts, and no she hasn't been stripped of them.. NCW is still holding out hope a new deal can be reached soon. No despite some rumors she is not pregnant and that is not the reason she is apparently ready to walk away.
There, with that out of the way lets get to some other NCW action shall we? Alright... hmm... I don't know, hard to focus with all this Zelda distractions and our poll from last week seems kind of pointless now, however... you did make an awesome choice, it would be great to see Ayla and Rayne back here to kick some ass.
Now this week's poll? We'll stick with this Zelda theme, and if she's stripped of the title, who do you think will be the next person to claim that championship?
RECAP AND REVIEW
Well we certainly had an interesting week. We finally got to see who the person that has been stalking my husband is with the shocking news that Reckless Jack has returned to NCW thanks to the loop hole that he's not Brad Kane. I'm going to kill that son of a bitch for touching my kid after I extended my gratitude for all he did in NCW a few weeks ago in this very column... he sat here and acted like he was a changed man and then he pulls this... I'll kill him.
Then in the other big news we got to see a group of wrestlers jump to the fight against the new Young Guns. It appears that Alex Jones, Xander and Trent Helms will finally form a team to destroy these guns and I have to see it's about damn time. It's pathetic how long they've been allowed to jerk around these halls without any opposition and I for one am glad it's finally looking to be taken care of. I used to support those jerks when they were full of guys who just wanted to be respected and would do anything to earn that respect, but now they are full of pretentious twits, so it'll be good to see them get what they deserve.
Now lets talk about the action, wow... we saw a huge upset, I don't think anybody has expected Team Falcon to take off so fast but hell if they haven't. Two weeks in a row they've won their matches against teams that were supposed to beat them on paper. This week Simon Daye thanks to the helping hand of Falcon has pinned our world champion... well with a little help from Steve and Crystal bailing on the champion to help him out too... but still, it's a pin over the champ. Our main event was a great matchup until the all that Young Guns cheating finally caught up with them and get Lex Sense disqualified, and we got to see two big upsets one on Collision the other on Trauma. Jimmy Zane pinned the former World Champion DDK, and Ricky Johnson defeated Adam Knite, those are two great wins for both men to really make their way back up the NCW ladder. Could mean great things for their futures here.
So really we had a ton of action this week. Trent Helms returns to take the fight to the Young Guns, it looks like Infamous and EMF are pushing their friendships to the brink of extinction, and with some good solid upsets it means for a fantastic Collision. 8.8.
//BEST MATCH//
That six person tag team match on Collision had some fantastic action from beginning to end. It ended with Rob kicking out of the Daye Break and with Steve coming back down to screw him over, but irregardless of that it was still a great match that ended with a big win.
//WORST MATCH//
Any match where I see Adam lose always sucks, but that's a bias choice I know. I'll say the Gardner and Williams match was the worst simply because it could have been so great if it wasn't for the fact that the Young Guns decided to get involved. Stupid guns.
//HIGH POINTS//
Well obviously it was Trent Helms returning, nothing even compares to that, especially after the false reports of his death earlier in the week. I love it when I see Trent stand up for something that he believes in and this week he did just that.
//LOW POINTS//
Brad Kane weaseling his way back into NCW under a mask and the Reckless Jack gimmick.... asshole.
THE FAB FIVE
5. BOB POOLER :: Well it was a good debut for the one and only Bob Pooler here. He's made a huge name for himself elsewhere and I hear Jayson Matthews and him may have wanted to cross paths in some other place... but here in NCW they met and Pooler comes out on top in his debut.
4. RICKY JOHNSON :: Well it's a win over a Hall of Famer, so those are always worth a ton of points in these. RJ has a new attitude and it looks like it might be paying off for him in the long run.
3. ROBERTO VERONA :: Just like above, he however not only pinned a Hall of Famer but he also got a win over the 2010 Gladiator when Jacobsen wisely decided to cheat and throw Xander out of the match.
2. JIMMY ZANE :: Just like number four and three, big win over a huge NCW star in former World champion and current Tag Team champion DDK. Zane was being controlled the entire match, but he never lost his cool and kept his head in the match, it payed off for him... a younger Zane wouldn't have kept his composure like that.
1. SIMON DAYE :: Pinning the world champion no matter how it comes about is always great. Simon came close without the help from Steve, but Rob showed why he's going to make a fantastic champion with his fighting spirit but in the end it was still Simon with his arm raised.
PREVIEW AND PREDICTIONS
LAST WEEK'S RECORD:: 8-4 :: Not terrible but kinda snaps the awesome 10 correct streak I was on, but still getting 2/3 of your choices right isn't terrible, but it could be better.
OVERALL RECORD:: 181-52 :: Finally cracked 50... wow, I held that off for a long time didn't I? I'm proud of it though.

WHAT TO KEEP AN EYE ON
KNITELY BANGS vs. THE RJs :: Like I have to explain this... Adam gets a chance to murder him some Reckless Jack and get some revenge on Ricky Johnson this week. He'll have his partner and good friend DDK to help him in this fight. I hope to see plenty of bangings. Either way too... if you know what I mean... aka... I hope KB rapes them.
KRISTOFF LIAM BATES :: HEY! Philip Burns, Sexy Jason, and KLB all return within like two weeks?! Wow this is awesome... well you'll want to keep an eye on Bates, he was very close to winning a world title during his last run here and with a renewed drive and dedication he might well be on his way back to the top and it could begin this week in his tag team match on Trauma.
SPIKE KANE vs. FALCON :: Are you kidding me!? We're getting to see this on Collision, it's not a pay per view main event?! What in the hell is going on here? Whoever is booking these shows sure knows what they're freaking doing, I'll give you that much. A match between two hall of famers for free.. nice.
SEX :: They have an idiotic stupid moronic dumbass name, but hell they picked up a win in their first match as a team. They'll take on the more cool and hip named Burning Man in a match that should really push them to the limit, could be very entertaining to see what they got.
KNITELINE
Well fans, I've got a huge treat for you this week! It's the one and only Trent Helms joining me! He's constantly one of the most requested NCW stars to make an appearance here and for good reason, so welcome the former World Champion and I hope you enjoy, just click the video to watch my interview with him.
Kelly Knite: Alright, thanks for sitting down with me Trent. A lot of people by know should know you, I, and Adam go way back, in fact I'd venture to guess we three go further back, over a decade, than anybody on the roster. So first I just want to see if I haven't mentioned it to you already.. it's great to have you back here in NCW, how did it feel being away for so long?
Trent Helms: It actually feels great being back, when I came back, I had doubts if i would actually be able to fit into the current form of nCw, because Three years can change alot in wrestling.
Kelly Knite: So you feel things haven't changed that much since you've been gone, or do you mean you were just able to fit in better than you expected? Along those lines, what was the most shocking news you saw when you came back into NCW and looked around at what had happened in the yeas that you were absent?
Trent Helms: I felt things had change, my doubts was, that it changed so much, I wouldn't be a good fit, and that I wouldn't be able to keep up with people like I did in 2008 when I was nearly running circles around most of the roster, and as far as the second question, It would of had to been seeing Rob Diamond who was nothing more then a joke when I was around, proving to be a real time threat and winning the world title
Kelly Knite: Well I have to agree with that, it still amazes me to see how far he's come. So, Trent... it would appear the rumors of your demise were greatly exaggerated. How did it feel being in that hospital bed for so long after one match? Tell us what you were thinking that whole time.
Trent Helms: Well Kelly, I'm no stranger to injuries, which happens when you're as small as I am, going against guys who outweigh you by 50 pounds, add in the fact, there are chairs, barbed wire and flaming tables, and it usually leads to disaster, however Trent Helms is still here, and while I was in pain, knowing the fact, that I pushed Steve Awesome to a new limit despite being gone for so long, actually made me feel relieved about any doubts I had, that I am still one of the better wrestlers in this company, and I couldn't wait to come back, despite losing to Steve, it actually did alot to boost my confidence
Kelly Knite: So absolutely no regrets huh? That's just the thing everybody loves to hear from a real competitor Trent and I don't think anybody will ever doubt you after a match like that. So let me ask you this, do you think that match was your defininng moment in NCW? You think it's the match everybody will remember over the next 20 years?
Trent Helms: It's defiantely up there, I mean it's hard to really pick just one moment from my nCw to put up there, considering I've had classic matches with Lance Ryan, Spike Kane, Angel among others, but I think people will look back on this match, and say, I remember when Steve and Trent did battle in the Dragon Den at A Night to Remember, maybe when Xian get's older, it will be one of the first matches I show him of his dad and what he was able to do
Kelly Knite: Speaking of Xtian, what do you think... him and Ryleigh might make a good tag team some day, the new Knitemare on Helms Street? -laughing- I'm just teasing you there... so Trent.. we have to talk about it... The Young Guns... what convinced you to take the fight to them after just having a huge fight and bloody feud with Steve Awesome?
Trent Helms: Well, you know how I am, despite being quite flamboyant, I usually just stay out of people business, and let them go there own way, however I was pretty pissed that last time I teamed with Adam, when we defeated The Young Guns in a tag team match, then for no reason, they decide to attack me, despite doing nothing more then praising Venom as the future of the company, I knew for awhile I would go after them, since they drew first blood, but I just waited till I was done with Steve before I decided to make a move
Kelly Knite: Do you, Alex, and Xander got anything waiting up your sleeves for them? What about Doc? Nobody knows really where he's siding since he returned this week, maybe you can give us some kind of scoop or are you just as confused as the rest of us?
Trent Helms: I have no idea what Doc is planning to be honest, thru part of me is hoping he makes the wrong choice, and sides with The Guns, I've always felt someone of his abilty matched with mine, would equal one of the greatest matches in nCw, and don't worry, if the Guns want to play their usual gang warfare, that is fine, Xander is one of the best brawlers in the business, and Alex is a tough bastard, and well myself...I think I proved how much I can take in a enviroment like that, So I think we're be able to handle it, since we know it will come to that, because they don't want to mix it up and try to beat us in the ring, where our side clearly has the advantage.
Kelly Knite: You sure know how to make a girl excited Trent, I hope you guys really take it to those jerks.You said you were kinda hoping for a match with Doc... which one of those guns that are on their team right now though do you want to take down the most, if you had a choice who would you take on right now one on one to prove to them that you're the better wrestler?
Trent Helms: If Venom, was around, it would be him, however I would have to say Lex Sense, that dude has impressed me greatly with what he can do, to have a man, of that sizes, which the skill set he has, because of that, I would want to take him down, because he is the biggest and baddest of the bunch, and plus I have a history of being able to take down Giants such as him
Kelly Knite: Alright Helms my old friend... lets get to some quick answer questions shall we? What wrestler in NCW would you most like to have a match with today, maybe you have some unfinished business with or you never faced? Who would you face and why?
Trent Helms: Dave Holland, we wrestled once, and it was the week after I took on Angel in a Barbed Wire match, I was in no condition to complete and would like to have a real match against him
Kelly Knite: You're widely known for being one of the guys in the back who is willing to push the young guys and try to get them over with the fans, much like Falcon, what person on the roster do you see as being the next big NCW star?
Trent Helms: I would say either Lex Sense, Todd Williams or in the women division Jade Cortez.
Kelly Knite: Very good choices, I agree with them all... now... on a scale from 1-10 how would you ranked your entire career in NCW? To go along with it, is there anything you feel you've yet to accomplish in NCW and would love to do before your time here is up?
Trent Helms: I give it a 9, I've done alot, but I've still yet to compete in a Road To The Gold Tournament, that and i feel myself and Adam would easilly have another Tag run in us, outside of that, maybe would like to hold the National Championship, since it's a title I've haven't competed for
Kelly Knite: Ok, NCW, 1-10, rank it as a whole.
Trent Helms: 10, Best Promotion I've ever been apart of.
Kelly Knite: Now the question I've asked everybody, but it may not make much more sense with her leaving. It's our Ginger vs. Mary Ann argument... Kelly Knite or Zelda Knite?
Trent Helms: I will always have a spot in my heart for you Kelly
Kelly Knite: Alright Trent, that's all I have for tonight. Thank you for the vote and you'll always be special to me too. Is there anything you want to say tot he fans, or a message to the Guns before we go?
Trent Helms: You're going to see a side of Trent Helms most people will never wished to see in the next coming months, and despite losing to Steve 2 weeks ago, i'm stronger then I've ever been, and if you forget, just remember, I'm Trent Helms, and I'm out of this world
Kelly Knite: Thanks for doing this Trent and best of luck.
CLOSING THOUGHTS
:: I really don't want to see Zelda go... she's a part of NCW history now, a huge part of what makes this Starlets division great... hell she practically built it from the ground up... I'm begging my dad to just pay her what she wants.
:: Wow it was amazing seeing Doc come back and doing it in his home country, great surprise. Now it's just how is he siding with? Nobody knows... man is an enigma right now.
:: Nobody knows what is going to happen to both Starlets titles, nothing like this has ever happened before... rumor though is that Crystal Hilton may be allowed to just hand pick a new partner, nothing has been made final though.
:: Yes I am taking Zelda's spot in this match, to all you jerks who gave her hell, just wait until you see me **** somebody up and take out my frustrations on some jackasses.
:: So what is the deal with everybody returning to NCW lately? I'm not complaining, I think it's great, just amazing that it's happening all at once.
:: yes, it is Philip Burns.
:: I just hope KLB keeps what's her face, you know that chick I kicked the hell out of, out of the way still, he better not be back with her.
:: My vote on who will be the next World Starlets Champion? Alysson Gardner.
:: My vote on the next Starlets Tag Team champions? Crystal Hilton and Kelly Knite or if she doesn't want a new partner... Bitches with Attitude, that's right... I'm calling the comeback.
Well fans, that's all I have for you tonight and hope you enjoyed this and don't mind the lateness this week. Until next time...
--Kelly Knite!
