CSWA

FISH FUND TRIVIA
The darkest days of FISH FUND mirrored the darker days of the CSWA.  In 1991, the Fund was taken over by a stable led by a woman who had been 'helped' by the Fund.

The "Foundation," led by Myra, led the CSWA into one of the most convoluted, inane angles of all time, in which no one really knew which side they were on.  It even led to a competing PPV...which bombed.

It's a wonder the CSWA ever was able to go national in 1992, isn't it?

Greensboro Grudge Match
Greensboro Championship On The Line

"The Strongest Arms In The World" GUNS 
vs. "Wicked Sight" Michael Plett

BB:  Folks, the weeks leading into FISH FUND haven’t been kind to Mike Plett - a mysterious voice has claimed on two occasions that Wicked Sight is in the corner of the GXW infiltration.  Music of Plett’s rivals - including GUNS and Hornet - has played during his matches, costing him several victories.  The simple fact of the matter is, questions must be answered here when Mike Plett…

SB:  Who’s a traitor…

BB:  Takes on Greensboro Heavyweight Champion GUNS in what’s being billed as a Grudge Match… we all know GUNS has the “Strongest Arms in the World”, and we all know the high-impact arsenal of Mike Plett normally dazzles the crowd.  Will the crowd be in the corner of Mike Plett?

SB:  I hope not… but look at the alternative.

(CUE UP:  “Just Got Wicked” by Cold – a resounding wave of mixed reaction fills the arena, and Mike Plett stands at the top of the ramp with his arms in the air.)

BB:  He’s taking the cheers he can get and ignoring the boos, or so it would seem, Sammy… this kid has the heart of a lion, I just hope that he’s in our corner.

SB:  I could care less… but I happen to know he’s a TRAITOR! Heart of a lion...more like the butt of a baboon.  And that's above his neck!

BB:  Plett looks as poised as anybody else here at FISH FUND; this should be a wild ride.  GUNS has gotten the better of Plett in recent weeks, but Wicked Sight has had his shots in this war.  It all started out as a battle over locker room “ethics”, some might say “young vs. old”… some might say “established vs. held down”… whatever it was, it’s turned into an intense rivalry and the crowd is excited for it.

SB:  Some might say Freak versus Roid Freak!

(CUE UP:  “Ride of the Valkyries” – nostalgic heel pop;  you can feel the fans enjoy the boos they give to GUNS.  GUNS steps out with the Greensboro title inside out around his waist, and “$6:75 – final offer” written on the leather.)

BB:  Look what he’s doing to that belt!  It makes me sick…

SB:  It makes me laugh.  But then again, everything about GUNS makes me laugh.

BB:  It would.

SB:  Buckley, Plett runs his mouth too much, he says he’s going to try and make the “stake incident” feel good to GUNS.  I doubt it, Chalupa Traitor.

BB:  Don't start with the Taco Bell references again, Sammy.  GUNS with the Greensboro title draped over one of his arms…

SB:  The largest arm in the world… or one of the two, at least.

BB:  And Mike Plett isn’t waiting for this one to start, he’s took off in a mad dash to the middle of the ramp, and he crashes into GUNS with a flying forearm!  GUNS stumbles backward and the fight is on, Plett handing shot after shot to the side of GUNS’ head… GUNS with one mighty shot that sends Sight back toward the ring, and now with one fluid motion, he’s thrown Plett back up the ramp… GUNS has uncanny strength, especially for being a guy that has seen younger years…

SB:  Unfortunately for the Traitor Freak Plett… he won’t get to see all of HIS younger years when GUNS is through with him!

BB:  That remains to be seen, and right now the crowd seems to be indifferent as to WHO they jeer… I think the fans have started to doubt Mike Plett more than any time in his career, and those of us who know him know how much that hurts his psyche.  These fans seem to just want these to men to beat the hell out of each other.

SB:  Sounds good to me…

BB:  That’s just what they’re doing, GUNS is slamming Mike Plett’s head into the set, and folks, this one hasn’t even officially got underway!  GUNS with clubbing blows to the back and neck area of Wicked Sight, and let’s not forget his shoulder injuries for the past two years…

SB:  Excuses.

BB:  Pardon?

SB:  You don’t hear GUNS complaining about his bionic knee, or even Bugbrain whining about his back…

BB:  GUNS doesn’t complain because it’s one of his biggest strengths! 

SB:  Whatever. It's NO EXCUSES, Buckley.  Not "you get to WHINE cause you're a FREAK whose mommy liked to make fun of him."

BB:  You'd be at the top of the list in that case.  LOOK AT THE TOP OF THE RAMP, SAMMY… GUNS has Mike Plett over his head…

SB:  He’ll send it WAY PAST Third Row!

BB:  …and he’s looking down over the side of the stage!  It could be over before it’s even begun for Mike Plett, here at FISH FUND!

SB:  Do it, GUNS… DO IT…

BB:  PLETT WIGGLES FREE, SPINS HIM… VIEW TO A KILL!  VIEW TO A KILL RIGHT OFF THE BAT, MIKE PLETT MAY HAVE GUNS’ NUMBER RIGHT HERE!

SB:  This match hasn’t even STARTED yet, Buckley, and you’re already screaming at the top of your lungs about Plett’s chances of survival!  If he was smart, he’d see GUNS laid out right now and run like hell.  Instead… he’s climbing the set!

BB:  Indeed he is, and the fans are beginning to forget about these GXW allegations, they’re on their feet… the CSWA has seen most of the greatest athletes in wrestling risk their body over the years, but every time Plett hits the arena, these fans see somebody lay it all on the line, I don’t want to believe that he is GXW… Look at him!  He’s got to be ten, fifteen feet in the air and he’s showing absolutely no fear… motioning for GUNS to rise to his feet… and that GUNS is stands as an amazing feet!  Folks, no one just GETS UP from the View To A Kill, and it takes a strong man to even get up as quick as GUNS is…

SB:  Plett’s stupid, he’s going to KILL himself!

BB:  PLETT FLIES OFF!  FRANK’N’PARSONS BY MIKE PLETT, BUT NO!  NO! 

SB:  YES!

BB:  GUNS was able to pull Plett back up to himself… Wicked Sight would have thrown any other man right off that stage with that maneuver, but GUNS caught him and reeled him back in, and this could be a career ender right here… GUNS begins to charge the opposite side of the ramp!  PLETT COMES OVER GUNS WITH A SUNSET FLIP AT THE TOP OF THE RAMP, AND HE’S ON TOP NOW WITH SHOTS TO THE FOREHEAD!

SB:  How does he do it?

BB:  And now Plett’s listening to referee Ben Worthington’s pleas, and heading up the ring to start this match… but it looks like GUNS won’t be too far behind him… GUNS running as best he can, no match for the speed of Plett, and Plett’s waiting in the ring for GUNS… GUNS rolls in and Plett’s on him like there is no tomorrow, wildly swinging fists…

SB:  Freakboy has a death wish.

BB:  Plett off to the far side and here comes another forearm, GUNS staggers into the ropes, and now Sight goes back in for another shot, BUT GUNS CATCHES HIM!  Sight went for the cross body, and GUNS showed his strength by catching him… FALLAWAY SLAM BY GUNS, and he’s not even going for the cover! 

SB:  He’s going to toy with that traitor… really, though, GUNS should help Sight if their end goal is to ruin the CSWA.

BB:  Sammy, who says that Mike Plett is GXW?

SB:  That voice!

BB:  Well, who the HELL is that voice?

SB:  That voice is someone who KNOWS that Mike Plett is a traitor, and Plett’s doing all he can to convince us otherwise.  I don’t even think Rudy Seitzer believes in “Freak Traitor” anymore! 

BB:  Plett came off with an incredible start here, but GUNS is using his strength to keep his younger opponent at bay… he’s really killed Plett’s crowd support.  They’re reluctant to cheer for him, but when he started dazzling the crowd earlier…

SB:  You know, there are a lot of GXW fans in our seats, Buckley.

BB:  What’s your point?

SB:  I’m surprised they aren’t BEHIND Plett!

BB:  They might be, who knows?  But the fact is, this is a CSWA show, and these fans are paying money to see the CSWA, not the GXW, and if Mike Plett really is…

SB:  You’re starting to believe it now, aren’t you!

BB:  Shut up and let me call this match, Mike Plett is coming back with fists of fury, trying to break the bearhug that GUNS has applied to him! 

SB:  His arms are almost bigger than Plett’s waist!

BB:  And almost as big as your mouth! 

SB:  (mumbles)

BB:  PLETT IS FREE, HE HITS THE FAR ROPE AND HE’S OFF WITH A FLYING FOREARM, GUNS STAGGERS!  

SB:  Stupid razza-frazza...

BB:  Wicked Sight comes off from the far side again with a 360 DEGREE CLOTHESLINE!  GUNS GOES DOWN!  PLETT WITH THE COVER, ONE, TWO… GUNS JUST THREW MIKE PLETT THROUGH THE ROPES!

SB:  That’s power.  Too bad that guy’s trying to run us out of business as fast as Plett is!

BB:  GUNS is following Wicked Sight out of the ring, and Ben Worthington is going to be very lenient here, this one is called a grudge match for a reason.  The two are going at it tooth and nail, toe-to-toe, which gives a huge edge to GUNS… but Plett takes off in a sprint!  GUNS comes around the corner, SPRINGBOARD PLANCHA FROM THE STEPS, GUNS GOES DOWN!  PLETT TO THE APRON… ASAI MOONSAULT INTO A FROG SPLASH, JESUS THAT WAS INCREDIBLE!  THESE FANS AREN’T WORRIED ABOUT HIS ALLEGIANCE, THE CHEERS FOR THAT MOVE SAY IT ALL!

SB:  That crowd will learn…

BB:  Just think about the power Plett has to built up to take GUNS down in moves like that... he's gotta have huge speed, and lay his body out completely.  And now Mike Plett is pounding away at the Greensboro champion!  Sammy, GUNS’ lack of respect for that prestigious gold makes me sick to my stomach…

SB:  I think it’s kind of funny.  I mean, the only people that have held that belt are guys like that FREAK and…

BB:  Let’s not forget our Heavyweight champion, Evan Aho did that belt a lot of justice when he was the Greensboro champ… And there goes Plett with a series of boots, doing his best to keep his much larger adversary on the ground while he has the advantage.  Plett to the apron now, and off with an axehandle smash, not doing much to the champ… is this match for the title, Sammy?

SB:  You’re asking me… the sky is falling down.

BB:  If it is, Worthington is being EXTREMELY lenient; the fans are here to see a winner and that we will see… Plett slides back into the ring, and he’s daring GUNS to come after him!

SB:  That’s going to prove to be a HUGE mistake, I promise! 

BB:  You’re a regular comedian, aren’t you?  GUNS comes in and Sight hits the far side, in with a baseball slide dropkick, and GUNS staggers, hitting the ropes again… Plett in again, GUNS with a backdrop, but Sight catches the apron, goes for a slingshot but GUNS throws Sight’s arms to the side, a hard right hand to the side of Plett’s face, and the young gun is only holding on with one hand…

SB:  Finish him, GUNS…

BB:  GUNS with a haymaker, but Plett ducks the shot, with a shoulder to the gut now, SUNSET FLIP AND WE’VE GOT ONE… TWO… GUNS KICKS OUT, THE FIRST NEAR FALL OF THIS BOUT GOES TO MIKE PLETT!  GUNS back up, Plett back up, Plett ducks another shot and now with a kick to the gut, goes for a rocker dropper but GUNS stands up, Plett takes a flip and lands on his feet, AND GUNS JUST CHUCKED MIKE PLETT OVER THE TOP ROPE!  WHAT A SHOW OF STRENGTH, JUST LIKE THAT AND WICKED SIGHT IS AT OUR FEET NOW…

SB:  Come on GUNS… kick him while he’s down.

BB:  There’s no doubt in anyone’s mind that GUNS will do just that, and here he is, slamming Plett’s head into the table… time and again, three, four… Sight’s had a history of concussions, this can’t be good…

SB:  It’ll be great!

BB:  GUNS slams Plett’s head against Rhubarb’s bell!  You’ve got to know Plett is on dream street… GUNS with a clothesline, and now he’s gloating to the crowd, pointing at his Greensboro championship!

SB:  Is that Crayola across the nameplate?

BB:  Mike Plett has been busted wide open, fans…and for whatever sick reason, my colleague loves it.  GUNS is back on the attack now, he’s got the Greensboro title in his hand and I’m going to assume that all the rules are out the window during this one, it’s went from leniency to chaos, and GUNS with the belt, he swings and Plett dodges it!  PLETT WITH A SUPERKICK, THE SUPERKICK HE HAD TO GET FROM TRIPLE X, PLETT WITH A SUPERKICK TO GUNS’ JAW AND GUNS STAGGERS! 

SB:  Damn it!

BB:  Plett with a spear, and GUNS falters a bit more, and now a standing dropkick, but GUNS still stands!  PLETT WITH THE BELT, WHAT A SHOT BY MIKE PLETT AND BOTH MEN ARE DOWN RIGHT IN FRONT OF US, THIS CROWD DOESN’T KNOW WHETHER TO CHEER OR TO BOO!

SB:  Boo!

BB:  Let’s catch a replay of that shot again, you can see… Plett’s been busted wide open, on the left of your screen and on the right is current action… Plett grabbed that belt from the ground and swung with all his might, it took him off his feet and it may have been his very last wind, but Mike Plett took GUNS down…

SB:  But look what’s happening now!  GUNS just hit a backbreaker, right over that bionic knee of his!  Plett looks like he is BROKEN in half!

BB:  GUNS is stomping away at Plett’s back, and he rolls him in the ring now… we’ve seen this before, GUNS likes to target the back, his arms are so powerful, so massive that it’s easy to attack that often times vulnerable spot of one’s body, and he’s just laying forearms to the back of Plett, this has to be eating away at Mike’s body.

SB:  I sure hope so.

BB:  Cut the kid a break once in a while!

SB:  He’s GXW, why are you defending him?

BB:  Who says, Sammy?

SB:  Apparently, Shane Southern and Lawrence Stanley… and they’re just two!

BB:  GUNS sends Plett to the far corner, and he hit that turnbuckle so hard, it knocked him straight over!  Mike Plett is lying on his stomach, clinching his back… folks, GUNS is definitely in the driver’s seat right now.  And GUNS is pulling Plett back to his feet… sends him to the side again BUT PLETT FALLS DOWN!  He might be out right now! 

SB:  This is incredible… Cardigo couldn’t do it… Gemini couldn’t do it… Apocalypse couldn’t do it… maybe GUNS can break Mike Plett right in half!  That little traitor!

BB:  GUNS is slowly pulling Plett up by his hair, this could be a trip to Third Row right here!  IT’S GOING TO BE, GUNS SIGNALS FOR IT!  THE CROWD IS ON IT’S FEET, THEY MAY NOT LIKE GUNS…

SB:  And they may not like Plett when he reveals he’s GXW…

BB:  BUT THEY WANT TO SEE SOMEONE GO IN THE THIRD ROW, GUNS has Plett up by the hair… WAIT, PLETT WITH A MIDDLE FINGER AND A LOW BLOW, MIKE PLETT JUST DOUBLE OVER GUNS, AND THERE HE GOES WITH A HEADBUTT!  HIS BACK HAS TO BE IN PAIN, BUT MIKE PLETT IS FIGHTING BACK! 

SB:  STAY DOWN, MORON !

BB:  What in the world is that?  Mike Plett pulls out some BRASS KNUCKS, AND HE JUST SLAMMED GUNS IN THE HEAD!  It’s underhanded, dirty…

SB:  I normally like those traits, but not in a punk like Plett… Here it comes, Buckley!  I TOLD YOU HE'S GXW!

BB:  GUNS IS BUSTED OPEN TOO!  BOTH MEN BLEEDING, AND PLETT GOES IN AFTER GUNS AGAIN!  FLYING CLOTHESLINE BY MIKE PLETT, AND GUNS IS STAGGERING!

SB:  Since the GXW can't come up with the seven bucks to BUY the belt, they've sent the traitor to cheat to win it!

BB:  Plett to the corner, with GUNS… TORNADO DDT!  TORNADO DDT AND FOR THE FIRST TIME IN SEVERAL MINUTES, MIKE PLETT IS ON TOP OF THIS ONE!  HE’S HEADED UP TOP!  These fans are on the edge of their seat… Plett motions to them and I think he got a fair response… WHAT A BEAUTIFUL MOONSAULT! 

SB:  WHAT A BEAUTIFUL KNEELIFT!

BB:  GUNS JUST PUT HIS KNEES UP, IT HAD TO BREAK MIKE PLETT RIGHT IN HALF!  This one must be over now… GUNS is headed over to the prone body of Wicked Sight… and he’s lifting Plett’s legs, what is this?

SB:  You’ve got to be kidding…

BB:  A move he learned from Hornet years and years ago – the SCORPION DEATHLOCK!  GUNS has it applied and Plett is WRITHING in pain!  Plett is howling out in pain… GUNS isn’t going to let go of this one, you can rest assured… it’s either time to escape or time to tap out for Mike Plett, he feels like he has something to prove, with the entire company looking at him as being the man helping out GXW talent within the CSWA… you can see him reaching for the ropes but it’s not doing much good.

SB:  Thank goodness.

BB:  Worthington is asking Mike if he wants to give up, and you just heard him say no… and now he grabs toward the ropes but GUNS has this one on perfect!  Plett’s lost a lot of blood – and I mean a LOT of blood – and there can’t be much left in his tank.  GUNS is squeezing the life out of Plett’s legs with those massive arms –

SB:  The Strongest Arms in the World…

BB: - and his back with all the weight of his own body.  Worthington lifts his hand up, once, and Plett’s hand hits the mat… again… and it hits the mat… a third time, this might be it… his hand hits – NO IT DOESN’T!  MIKE PLETT IS STRUGGLING TO FIGHT, HE’S CLAWING HIS WAY TO THE ROPES… HE GETS THEM!  PLETT GETS THE ROPES! 

SB:  GUNS WON’T LET GO THOUGH!

BB:  Worthington is counting down, but GUNS won’t let go… but look at Plett!  Plett is CLIMBING the ropes with his hands, trying to switch the leverage but the weight difference, and the strength difference… I think he’s out!  LET GO OF THE HOLD, GUNS, I THINK PLETT IS OUT! 

SB:  He looks… almost…

BB:  Mike Plett’s bloodied and battered body is resting up against the ropes and GUNS still has that painful move locked in, Worthington is calling for the bell… he’s giving this one to GUNS… Plett is out.

SB:  It’s scary, even if it is Plett…

BB:  GUNS isn’t letting go at all… Worthington is counting, he tells him, “You’ve got to let go,” but GUNS isn’t doing that at all… well, finally, he does… GUNS lets go of the hold but without question, the damage is done… Plett is moving his hand now, you’ve got to believe he’s still trying to fight… and GUNS sees that!  GUNS can’t believe that Plett’s moving!  LEAVE HIM ALONE, GUNS…

SB:  Plett’s an idiot…

BB:  GUNS is lifting Plett up, he’s setting him up in the corner, what’s going to happen here? 

SB:  What the…?

(The lights go completely out, with a flicker of flash from a camera or a lighter coming on and off in the crowd…)

BB:  The lights have went out here, folks, GUNS has won this bout by a knockout, basically… this has to be a technical difficulty, I’m not sure what’s going on.

SB:  You don’t think this place is going to blow again, do you?

BB:  Let's hope not…

(The lights come back up, and both men are laying face first on the canvas, a chair across each on of their bodies.  CUT TO:  The top of the ramp, and the video wall…  G…X…W)

BB:  What is going ON here!?

SB:  Good question!

(CUTTO:  The video wall, which shows a 'message.'  Bill reads along with it.)

BB:  "GUNS should know when to run his mouth, and when to keep it shut.  And as for Wicked Sight… it appears he got played for a fool, and so did the CSWA locker room!"

(The message fades off the screen as the crowd sits in silence, and Buckley continues to talk.)

BB:  MIKE PLETT ISN’T GXW! 

SB:  I’m… stunned…

BB:  But the big story here is, GUNS is laid out and so is Mike Plett, and their common enemy is the GXW!  Both men are face first and SOMEONE from the GXW took them out! 

SB:  Wait… Buckley…

BB:  What?

SB:  If Sight isn’t “the mole”… then who is? The Pros?  I thought they were just kidding!

BB:  That’s a great question!  Who knows what's going on...except that the GXW is playing a game that they'll never win!  But right now, the immediate question is, who laid these guys out, and can they walk out on their own?

SB:  GUNS is starting to stir already, but Plett is out cold.

BB:  Well, he showed a lot of guts trying to fight out of the Scorpion Deathlock, and in the end it just wasn’t enough to fight off the Strongest Arms in the World, but I think we all owe him the respect he deserves… and a lot of the locker room owes him an apology!  It appears we all got suckered in by this GXW… and you’ve got to know they've got more planned for this evening!

SB:  Dan Ryan's still in the building, right?  So there's definitely something planned.

BB:  We're being told by the boys in the back that Joey Melton has arrived at the Arena!  But now... Rudy Seitzer is down on the rampway to introduce a video package about the history of FISH FUND.

SB:  See...THIS is entertainment.  Wake me when he's done.
