OPENING
Another week has gone by and we've had another week of exciting NCW action followed by exciting recaps by yours truly in her weekly column, the incredible Knitelife. Yeah, I just pimped my own media out the roof, but hell, it's mine and I can do whatever I want with it. Now, lets get past all that and get to some of the interesting stuff shall we? You know, like the fact that we found out recently that not only did Reckless Jack get his ass wrecked by Adam, but so did his wife. Oooooohhhh, too soon? Poor Bitch Kane, just can't win can you? Maybe you should be such a douche next time and not go aligning yourself with my douche father.
It also seems that Steve Awesome and our World Champion aren't done with one another after their huge tag team match at Reborn, Steve has declared the match wasn't fair because Rob had Zelda and all he had was Crystal Hilton, so now the two are at it again with their hands on one another's necks. This whole feud and fight between these two has been a thrill to see develop over the recent weeks and now it's just getting hotter. Could be a great candidate for feud of the year when it's all said and done.
The seemingly biggest news however is the crowning of brand new tag team champions on this weeks show, my husband tried to come out and save the match but in the end that bum knee and Reckless Jack's bullcrap just wasn't enough as Knitely Bangs are finally relieved of their tag team championships. It was a long run for the duo, but it was a great one to say the least. Now the Young Guns are tasked at holding the titles, how they will fare? Nobody knows, but they already have a powerful enemy with General Manager Angel calling the shots.
Last week's poll was over the UK tour, and it's a pleasure to see that it was so well received and I'm glad it went over well with the fans. The world from the top is that we got some very good returns with our investment decision of doing an overseas tour, so another one might not be out of the realm of reality which is a good thing for our product as a whole.
RECAP AND REVIEW
The shows this week were pretty damn good in my opinion, Trauma felt a little flat except for the big eight woman tag team match, there were some good matches but nothing that really stood out, possibly seeing Phreak win against the odds or Joe Everyman in the main event were better received by you fans but to me they were still just pretty standard stuff, making Trauma good but not really great... however Collision, that's a different story.
Collision really brought things this week, the opening match was kinda bland and didn't start off on a really great note but it was still a solid match with a wicked twist at the end that nobody saw coming with the debut of that Christian guy whose name I won't even attempt to spell right now, but after that the show really picked up. Great win for Crystal Hilton over one half of the team that ended up with her Startlets Tag Team titles in what was a very close match between the two ladies and Jonas Potter pretty much shocking the NCW world with a huge win his Three Way match. The opening match might have been slow, but the next two got the crowd rocking.
The suckiest part was Adam wasn't able to be there to kicked the hell out of Jimmy Zane (Yes I refuse to call him his new ridiculous name) and Lex Sense one more time and ended up losing his tag team title without ever being in the match that it was contested in. I hate that damn Brad Kane, I hope you're gone forever you dill hole.
Anyway moving on, the night ended with some great matches. It was fantastic, Trent Helms and Merecedes picked up a great win over Ace and his wife Kathy Conway and the show ends with Andrew Jacobsen's possible biggest win to date in that huge main event where he picks up the win for the guns by making Todd Williams tap out. I don't know about you, but that was a big time match and he performed up to the level of the talent around him picking up the win in the process. Fantastic job by Jacobsen there. Overall I have to give this week's shows a combined 8.4, Trauma brought down Collision but Collision was still very steller.
//BEST MATCH//
The three way match between Potter, Sexy Jason Evans, and Doc was clearly the highlight of the night for me, it was three men, no titles, no feuds, no heat just wrestling and putting on a show for the fans in what turned out to be a very good wrestling match and nothing more, nothing less. It was a fantastic match.
//WORST MATCH//
Clearly it was DDK getting thumped in that handicap match. He fought with everything he had and even looked like he was going to take it away with that hot tag, but in the end with the odds stacked against him it was just too much to overcome as tag team titles shifted hands. It was terrible because he didn't get a chance to defend the title with Adam, his good friend and partner.
//HIGH POINTS//
Joe Everyman picking up a nice solid win for a change was a very nice sight, it's rare these days that he picks up a quality win but hell when they happen I'll point them out. It was also good to see Crystal Hilton rebounding nicely after she tapped out during the Main Event of one of the biggest Pay per views of the year.
Also it's always great to see Angel laying down the law like he's been doing with the guns, I love it when he gets all mad like that and you know he means business. Especially with those morons are involved.
//LOW POINTS//
Well I already said the DDK situation and I really don't think there is anymore after that, maybe that I'm sick of seeing Fergus Callaghan on my monitor? I don't know.
THE FAB FIVE
5. JOE EVERYMAN: It was a great match for him and a good moment to build off in the next few weeks, Everyman typically doesn't get those type of moments, lets hope he can keep it up now.
4. CRYSTAL HILTON: She came back after losing in her attempt at gaining the world title and took down one half of the team that is currently holding the belts her and Zelda created. Great moment for her and a nice rebound.
3. SENSE & JIMMY ZANE: I don't like how they gained the belts, thought it was kinda BS, but hell you can't argue the fact that they are now World tag team champions. Lets see what they do with Flashbang breathing down their necks.
2. JONAS POTTER: A three way match with two very established NCW stars from recent memory on Collision, but that didn't intimidate the good doctor, instead he came out there and he picked up a huge victory.
1. ANDREW JACBOSEN: The big main event with some of the best wrestlers in the world on Collision, and he showed up in a big way and pulled away with the victory. He's a dill hole, but it was a great victory irregardless.
RECAP AND REVIEW
Do we have some great matches for you this week? Are you kidding me?! Just look at that card, you bet your sweet ass we do the top four matches for Collision could be pay per view main events, hell... the top match was! This is going to be one of the best cards we've had in a while. We got interesting matches on Trauma with one member of BWA teaming with one member of the Starlets Tag Team champions against real tag teams, and we even have the return of the man-beast Emma Danielson.
Collision... oh wow. That's all I can say about it really, Awesome versus Rob Diamond, Adam versus Reckless Jack and Mr. Charismaless Andrew Jacobsen taking on the Intergalactic Showstopper Trent Helms. You are going to get a great show this week NCWites, I can promise you that.
LAST WEEK'S RECORD: 6-5
OVERALL RECORD: 214-68
Ouch... wow, that certainly wasn't my best week ever... wow surprised I did so bad there, but it happens to the best of them right? Ok this week I'm going to come at these predictions with a vengeance, I'm going to get at least 10 right, if I don't... I'll give Joe Everyman a kiss on the cheek on live TV, yes that's right... I'll put my own health on the line to make sure I fulfill my promise.

WHAT TO KEEP AN EYE ON
Adam Knite: He's got the bad knee that Douchebergington has been working on for weeks now that is seriously going to hinder him, but you're to see Adam come out with everything he has, he's not going to roll over and die, I promise you that. You'll see a showing of heart as Adam tries to rid NCW of Brad Kane forever.
Main Event: Really, do I have to go into detail over this match? Steve Awesome and Rob Diamond? This is what the Reborn main event was going to be before the girls got involved, and this could be what the Picture Perfect main event is if Awesome can win here. It's going to be a very interesting match indeed.
Ace vs. Joe Everyman: Well this is going to be an interesting match because these two haven't faced each other since Ace took Joe Everyman's record 3rd National title from him way back over a year and a half ago. It's been a long time coming for the rematch and very well could surprise people with being the match of the night.
Emma Manielson: The ogre is back and she's back with a man sized appetite for pain... pain on the poor women that dare stand in the way of her throbbing adam's apple. Counter note, should be interesting to see one of the newest and prettiest Starlets taking on one of the originals and ugliest. Defiently worth a watch.

What do you think of Trish's new found attitude?
Kelly: Who the **** cares? Seriously.
J.J. Taft; Cambridge, MA
Hey, Kelly. I'm stoked about NCW returning to the East Coast again and I've already circled my calender for Picture Perfect in Boston on 7/31. What's your opinion on tag team wrestling today, and who do you see as perennial favourites to challenge for the World Tag Team and Starlets Tag Team Championships?
Kelly: I personally love tag team wrestling, I always thought it was right up there with single wrestling, in fact I've often encouraged my father to put more focus on it when I've seen we here started to lag off a bit in that category. It's a great way to display teamwork and get four stars in the ring at once in a match that could tear the roof down. I'd like to see a Flashbang team get a shot, Trent Helms plus Todd Williams would be the natural choice. For the Starlets division, the obvious choice is BWA, but I'll go with SEX, they have an idiotic and stupid ****ing name, but hey they could push Mercy V and Kathy.
Paul Knowles, Toronto, Canada
Hi Kelz, I'm wondering what the return of Leonard Fox, and his backing of Reckless Jack, might mean for the rest of the company? Do you expect him to get involved elsewhere or do you see Angel being left to his own devices?
Kelly: Well first off... my father was never gone, he just wasn't on TV much. If, a big if, Adam can't end Kane on this show, it could mean bad things for the rest of the company, you saw what he did when he put all his faith in Steve Awesome and how that consumed the fed for months.... it wouldn't be any different.
CLOSING NOTES
There was a ton of heart shown by DDK in that handicap match, if by total accident if nothing else, it was a very hard fought loss. Even though, it was crazy.
Pertaining to the news about myself this week with Megan Kane... shut up. Who cares, it's none of your business.
Pertaining to Emma Danielson's return... apparently hanging out charging tolls at her bridge wasn't as lucrative of a business move as she thought it was going to be so she's back, that's nice.
Rumor backstage concerning Zelda Knite: She's being heavily recruited by a big name Japanese promotion for a few appearances... could be interesting, especially as she's still in possession of the NCW world title... could it make an appearance in another promotion overseas?
But on the counter note to that... it's also being rumored that she might be signing a deal to just defend the title until she loses it. Keep your ears open.
I've been thinking of something cool this year for this years Viewer's Choice show, the possibility of the fans voting on and booking a match... no, not picking an opponent for somebody... I'm talking about booking the thing themselves... but I'm thinking of a way to make it work.
Well fans that's all I have for you this week, I really hope you enjoyed the column as always and I'll see you on Collision where we're going to have one of the biggest shows of the year, until next time...
