Ring of Horror: Rosemary

Hailing from the Valley of Shadows (Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada) is Holly Letkeman. Better known today by the monstrous moniker of Rosemary. Okay, maybe it's not the most menacing or imposing of names, but Rosemary herself is both those things and more. Plus, Rosemary's Baby—A classic horror flick directed by convicted statutory rapist Roman Polanski so there's a spooky connection to the name. Getting her start in the business in 2008, Letkenman was trained by three Canadian greats, Johnny Divine, Tyson Dux, and Coach Scott D'Amore. She'd work her first match on January 30th, 2008, at a Prime Time Wrestling event in Belleville, Michigan, featuring heavy cross-promotion with the Insane Clown Pose's wrestling promotion, Juggalo Championship Wrestling.

In March, Letkeman took the ring name PJ Tyler, inspired by Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler and possibly Aerosmith guitarist Joe Perry, and began performing across the Canadian Indies, frequently appearing for Scott D'Amore's Border City Wrestling. By her second year, PJ Tyler could be regularly seen on Pro Wrestling Xtreme and Great Canadian Wrestling shows.—It was in the latter promotion that Tyler picked up her first championship, winning the GCW WILD Champion in a tournament. PJ Tyler's run lasted 117 days before dropping it to some random dude named Anthony Darko. Info on the title change and Darko's run with the belt is .—And not really all that important. Near the end of 2010, Tyler switched up her ring name, dropping the PJ and the Tyler in favor of a Courtney and a Rush.

Courtney Rush didn't slow down, working feverishly across various indies North of the border and somewhat dipping her toe into the United States indie scene, mainly for SHIMMER Women Athletes' taping in Chicago, Il. She'd end up signed to Impact Wrestling in 2016. But before that, Courtney Rush dominated Canadian wrestling, amassing quite a collection of championships, including an 833-day regin with the Acclaim Pro Wrestling Woman's championship, among other not-as-lengthy but still pretty lengthy title runs.

On her own, Courtney Rush was bound to make it. She had all the tools needed to succeed in the industry. It was just a matter of time before Courtney Rush was signed with someone. Unfortunately or fortunately—depending on your perspective—Courtney Rush went, and doggone got herself possessed. Possessed by a demon assassin. Rosemary.

Track 10 off Marilyn Manson's fourth studio album, Holy Wood (In the Shadow of the Valley of Death), filled the Impact Zone on January 26th as Rosemary took the stage. Painted up like some kinda demonic, demented haunted house performer, smudges and smears specked her arms and legs, not a look wrestling fans were accustomed to. She delivered a terrible, nonsensical promo to the Wolves (Eddie Edwards and Davey Richards), who stood in the ring. Fellow Canadian Crazy Steve and fellow monster Abyss joined Rosemary on stage, officially coming together as Decay. The trio attacked the Wolves—Stealing their Tag Team titles in the process. Decay would legitimately hold the titles in March after defeating Beer Money Inc. (Bobby Roode and James Storm) at Sacrifice.—Early in the same show, Rosemary scored a shenanigans-filled win over wrestling legend Gail Gim. In October, Rosemary would get some gold of her own. Winning the vacant TNA Knockouts World Championship in a Six-Sides of Steel match against Jade.

A respectable 266 days with the strap ended with Rosemary dropping the belt in a title vs. title unification match with Global Force Wrestling Women's Champions Sienna (Allysin Kay) at Slammiversary XV. In the weeks leading up to the event, Rosemary turned Face, claiming The Hive had sent her to protect Allie, first saving her from a beatdown from Sienna and Laurel Van Ness. What The Hive exactly is is not entirely clear. It seems to be more of an idea. Or perhaps it's an ageless being from beyond the stars that is psychically and spiritually linked to the being known as Rosemary.

A feud with the debuting Taya Valkyrie would end before it started, thanks to personal issues on Valkyrie's part. Rosemary reentered the title hunt, failing to regain the yet-again vacant Knockouts title in a tournament. The feud with Taya Valkyrie picked right back up once Valkyrie returned. Their short-lived angle concluded in a fancily named hardcore match (A Demon's Dance Match.) No longer preoccupied with the title or Taya, Rosemary could again focus on protecting her pal Allie.

And help, Allie needed. Su Yung had her sights set on ending Allie. On the April 26th, 2018, edition of Impact, Yung, along with a legion of Undead Bridesmaids, attacked Allie, attempting to put her in a coffin.—An attempt stopped by Rosemary. If you're a fan of horror and wrestling, then this is the feud for you. The demonic Rosemary protecting the sweet, innocent Allie from the evil undead bride Su Yung—Chef's kiss. Big, sloppy, chef's kiss. An injury Rosemary sustained at an indie show facilitated her needing to be written off TV a week after the start of the angle. The May 3rd Impact featured a match between Rosemary and Su Yung. At least it was meant to. Before the bell, the women broke into a brawl on the ramp. Yung summed her Undead Bridesmaids, who with them brought a casket. Allie was there too, trying to assist her best friend, Rosemary. It didn't go so well. Allie was forced to watch as Su Yung dumped Rosemary into the casket, sealing her inside.

A lot happened while Rosemary healed up. Allie went, and doggone got herself possessed, turning Heel and aligning with former rival Su Yung. Allie (now going by Dark Allie) and Su Yung teamed up to defeat Jordynne Grace and Kiera Hogan (No relation to former singer/reality star Brooke Hogan) at the January 2019 Homecoming. Rosemary returned that night, saving Kira Hogan from a post-match beatdown and reigniting the storyline with Allie and Su Yung. Rosemary worked to free Allie from the demonic hold that had taken over her. Along with Kira Hogan, at March's Against All Odds event, Rosemary dragged Allie with her into the Undead Realm in hopes of retrieving her friend's soul. -- Rosemary failed to save the soul of Allie, losing her friend forever.

Rosemary's revenge came in May when she laid out Su Yung in a Demon Collar Match (Dog Collar Match) where the ladies worked smart rather than hard. It's not a terrible match. But it does lack the violence and aggression you'd want from such a heated blood feud between two unholy hell beings. Instead of using the chain to brutalize one another, they find creative ways to incorporate its use. Choking spots. Tripping and tangling each other up. Dragging and pulling each other around the ring. It all works. Just would've worked better in a different match with different wrestlers. These two should've been trying to kill each other. They should have bled and broke to finish off this feud. Though Rosemary did take Su Yung prisoner.

Rosemary kept her captive close, having Su Yung accompany her to the ring over the next few weeks until Father James Mitchell had Havok free Yung while attacking Rosemary during a non-title match with Taya Valkyrie. Rosemary continued her unsuccessful pursuit of the Knockouts Title while simultaneously battling James Mitchell, Havok, and Su Yung. The entire saga came to a head with James Mitchell banishing Havok and Yung to the Undead Wasteland and Rosemary rescuing them.

TNA/Impact Wrestling has always been a wee bit silly. But Wrestle House was the undisputed peak of Impact/TNA buffoonery. A goofy Big Brother/Real World-style reality show, except with a vaguely supernatural twist. They can't leave the house, possibly due to a curse from Rosemary. The whole thing was madness. Ridiculous fun to be enjoyed by all but a few wrestling fans with a penchant for brightly colored suits, Southern idioms, and tennis rackets. It might not have been "Real Wrestling," but it was stupid, creative, and different, which is always appreciated. Her time in Wrestle House led Rosemary to form a brief team with former enemy Taya Valkyrie.

The team of Rosemary and Valkyrie competed in a tournament for the Impact Knockouts Tag Team Titles. They lost and stopped teaming after. She wasn't single long. Disbanding her team with Valkyrie in December and getting back with one of her exes by January. Ex-partner, that is, and it was Crazy Steve whom she got back together, reforming Decay—Sans Aybss; in his sted, the group added Luchador Black Taurus and former Rosemary foe-turned-friend Havok. When it comes to the story of Rosemary, it is hard not to be reminded of the famous quote: "Do I not destroy my enemies by making them my friends?" Time after time, rivals become allies.

With Havoc, Rosemary would have her first run with the Impact Knockouts Tag Team Championship. The iconic team of The IInspiration (Cassie Lee and Jessica McKay) took the belts from Decay after 98 days. Rosemary floated around the Knockout Tag and Knockout Women's Championship scenes for a few months with no success. Havok abandoned Rosemary in June, leaving her without a partner to face the Knockouts Tag Team Champions—No longer The IInspiration but now The Influence (Madison Rayne & Tenille Dashwood). However, as fate would have it, an old frenemy was back to get Rosemary's back. Taya Valkyrie. Valkyrie partnered with Rosemary for a title match at Slammiversary. That night, Rosemary became a two-time Impact Knockouts Tag Team Champion. In addition to aiding Rosemary in getting back the belts, Valkyrie joined Rosemary in her quest to find and bring back Havoc.

In the Undead Realm, Rosemary and Valkyrie found a different… Maybe unpossessed Havoc, going by the name Jessicka. Eventually, the trio took the name the Death Dollz, defending the belts under the Freebird Rule.—A rule allowing any two members of a larger team to defend the belts. Possibly made most famous by supergroup, the Spirit Squad, a quintet of male cheerleaders made up of five young men who at one time had dreams of being "serious" pro wrestlers but ultimately just got drenched in poo.

Between 2022 and 2023, the Death Dollz held the belts twice. Losing their titles first to VXT (Chelsea Green & Deonna Purrazzo) before getting them back 56 days later. The Coven (KiLynn King & Taylor Wilde) ended reign two for the Dollz. -- In the wake of this loss, Rosemary returned to the Undead Realm to retrieve her former partner, leaving her current partner, Jessicka, to wait. Rosemary wouldn't return.

At the Under Siege pre-show from London, not that one, the Ontario, Canada one, The Coven faced the Death Dollz in a non-title match. Jessicka's partner was a surprise return. Not Rosemary, but rather, for the first time in some seven years, Courtney Rush—Free of Rosemary's demonic possession. Rush and Jessicka carried on as the Death Dollz until the demise of Impact Wrestling at the end of 2023.

A brief history of TNA/Impact Wrestling. Founded by J, E, double F, J, A, double R, E, double T, and his father, Jerry Jarrett, in the long, long ago of 2002. That same year, Panda Energy International purchased a controlling share of the promotion, appointing Dixie Carter (the daughter of the company's owner) president. Smashing Pumpkin's frontman and full-grown man-baby, Billy Corgan, thought he bought the company. He didn't. In 2017, Anthem Sports & Entertainment acquired TNA Wrestling, rebranding the promotion as Impact Wrestling. Anthem rebranded again in 2024, reverting to TNA Wrestling. Rebranverting? (That's a word, right?—If you use your imagination.)

The Rebranverting didn't stop with the promotion's name. The Death Dollz also got an all-new-old look. Rosemary was back with Havoc by her side as Decay, returning to become TNA Knockouts World Tag Team Champions at the rebrandverted TNA relaunch event, Hard To Kill. And for the most part, that's the road so far. There's so much more to the Rosemary story. Years of television, interwinding character arks, and continuity rarely seen in the weird, wacky, and wild world of wrestling make it something special and worth the time.

Holly Letkeman and everything she's created within TNA/Impact/TNA (Again) has continuously been a diamond in the rough. Horror or humor, she delivers. Rosemary and her host vessel, Courtney Rush, deserve to be known. Their story to be heard. You could say it's a shame Rosemary has had to spend so much time trapped in the endless purgatory of TNA/Impact.—On the other hand, WWE never would've leaned into the spooky absurdity of Rosemary's world. More people would've seen her and her story. But it wouldn't have been as good. It wouldn't have been nearly as good. No, Rosemary is right where she should be. And it's on us to find her. To join The Hive.

CORE Pro #126 12/25/23 …if only in my dreams Wind Creek Event Center - Bethlehem, Pennsylvania Attendance: 2,525

Match #1

The TrustBusters (Sonny Kiss/Slim J/JeeVeS Kay/Trench) vs. Big Dan Champion/Joshua Bishop/Hyan/Kylie Paige - Slim J was hoisted up for the Bishop Bomb, but JeeVeS Kay grabbed on to Slim J's ankle and pulled him free from Bishop's grasp. Slim J and JeeVeS charged at Bishop but he back body dropped them both over the top rope and to the floor. Sonny Kiss ran at Joshua, but Sonny was soon lifted up for a Bishop Bomb and sent crashing into Slim J and JeeVeS on the outside. Trench applied the inverted full nelson on Big Dan Champion, but Champion broke the hold by driving Trench into the corner with an avalanche splash. Big Dan whipped Trench to the center of the ring where Hyan hit him with the Beauty Sleep and got the pinfall. Winners: Big Dan Champion/Joshua Bishop/Hyan/Kylie Paige

Match #2

Starboy Charlie and Marcus Mathers vs. The Southern 6 (Kerry Morton and Silas Mason) - Silas Mason went for the Thrillride on Starboy Charlie, but Charlie countered with a crucifix. Mason kicked out but ate a superkick from Marcus Mathers which sent Silas tumbling to the floor where Mathers took him out with a dive. Kerry Morton tried to throw a fireball at Starboy Charlie, but Charlie saw it coming and stomped on Kerry's foot. The delay caused the fireball to erupt in Morton's own hand. Starboy Charlie hit the Gotch piledriver on Kerry Morton and covered him for a three count. Winners: Starboy Charlie and Marcus Mathers

Match #3

Giant Baba Yaga and Fuego Del Sol vs. Black Generation International (Kaito Ishida and Flamita) - Fuego Del Sol tried for the tornado DDT on Flamita, but Flamita pushed Fuego off and right into a single arm tiger suplex from Kaito Ishida. Giant Baba Yaga went to break up the hold but Titus Alexander had made his way to ringside and he hooked Baba around the ankle. This distracted Baba long enough to allow Flamita to hold her at bay as Ishida got the pinfall. Winners: Black Generation International

Match #4

The 37KAMIINA (Yuki Ueno/MAO/Toy Kojima) vs. folkstyle (Shaw Mason/Tim Bosby/Nic Nemeth) - Tim Bosby went for the rip cord lariat on Yuki Ueno, but Yuki Ueno countered with the WR.

MAO springboarded off the top rope with a Phoenix Splash and the 2023 Trios Kingdom winners were again victorious. Winners: The 37KAMIINA

Match #5

SHIMMER Tag Team Championship Tournament - Finals Stephanie Vaquer and La Catalina vs. Queen Aminata and Raychell Rose - Stephanie Vaquer tried for the package piledriver on Raychell Rose but Queen Aminata made the save with a jumping hip attack which propelled Rose forward into a rolling cradle on Vaquer who could not kick out in time. Winners and NEW SHIMMER Tag Team Champions: Queen Aminata and Raychell Rose

Match #6

Coal Miner's Glove Match Eddie Kingston vs. Titus Alexander - Eddie Kingston climbed to the top rope and retrieved the coal miner's glove off a pole. On his descent Titus Alexander connected with a dropkick to Kingston's back which sent him crashing out of the ring to the apron before falling to the floor. Black Generation International made their way to ringside but referee Scarlette Donovan intercepted them and threatened to stop the match. What Scarlette didn't see was on the other side of the ring where someone hopped the railing.

- Chris Hero, Kingston's long time rival, attacked Eddie on the outside. Hero connected with a big boot and removed the coal miner's glove from Eddie's hand. Hero put on the glove and went for a rolling elbow but Kingston ducked and hit an exploder suplex to Chris Hero on the floor. A dazed Kingston pulled himself into the ring where Titus quickly seized the advantage and hit the Chaos Theory on Kingston, but King kicked out at two. Chris Hero tossed the coal miner's glove to Titus Alexander who put it on. Titus went for the spinning backfist on Kingston with the glove, but Eddie ducked and countered with a backdrop driver. Kingston grabbed the coal miner's glove and put it on before drilling Titus with a Sliding D using the glove and Eddie made the cover. Winner: Eddie Kingston

The Great Pro-Wrestling Adventure Hour presented by The Ring - 031 12/14/23 Defy TV 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM EST Filmed at WCPO TV Studios in Cincinnati, Ohio

- Daphne Oz, Veda Scott, Sam Leterna, and Alyssa Marino entered The Ring set and shared suggestions for Secret Santa gifts at all price levels when gift cards just won't do.

Jessica Troy vs. Risa Sera Jessica Troy defeated Risa Sera via submission with the Fujiwara armbar.

- Daphne Oz was demonstrating some quick gift wrapping tips when Kerry Morton entered The Ring set and called out Starboy Charlie. Kerry Morton questioned Starboy about his commitment to The Southern 6 following last week when Marcus Mathers dragged Alex Taylor back to the ring setting up Taylor to be pinned by Giant Baba Yaga. Charlie reminded Kerry Morton that Starboy isn't a member of the Southern 6 and that they had something good going in CORE before Kerry brought Silas Mason and Alex Taylor here. But Starboy said this isn't about Morton choosing The Southern 6 over their faction. And this isn't about Starboy choosing Marcus Mathers over Kerry Morton. Starboy said it's about him choosing himself. With that Charlie walked off the set where Marcus Mathers could be seen waiting for him.

Big Dan Champion/Joshua Bishop/Hyan/Kylie Paige vs. Ace Perry/Sage Philips/Alice Crowley/Miss Larkan Big Dan Champion, Joshua Bishop, Hyan, and Kylie Paige defeated Ace Perry, Sage Philips, Alice Crowley, and Miss Larkan with a Code Red from Paige on Philips.

- Daphne, Veda, Sam, and Alyssa reviewed some of the new Christmas albums released this year, including the new records from Cher, the latest from Seth MacFarlane with special guest Elizabeth Gillies, and "Missile Toes," the second Christmas record from Smash Mouth. The Ring Crew is joined for the next match by Shaw Mason and Hunter Holdcraft.

Tim Bosby vs. "King Of Jersey Shore" Zack Clayton Tim Bosby defeated Zack Clayton with a rip cord lariat.

- Shaw Mason and Hunter Holdcraft made their way to ringside after the match. Bosby asked Mason when this was going to stop. Mason said that last week during a tag match against The Andersons, Hunter Holdcraft knocked a foreign object out of Brock Anderson's hand, and instead of picking that weapon up Hunter kicked it out of the ring. Mason said that yes, they almost lost the match because of the time Hunter spent making that decision, but that in that moment Mason gained some perspective on the value of doing things the right way. Shaw Mason admitted that while he still believes Bosby cheated in their first match, he couldn't prove it, so during their match on Thanksgiving Shaw planted the foreign object on Bosby to frame him. Bosby thanked Shaw Mason for finally telling the truth, but that he also has something to confess. Bosby said Shaw was right, he did cheat during their first match and he also cheated in his match against Tom Lawlor. Shaw Mason told Bosby that he admired his honesty, but what he admired even more was his competitive spirit. Mason said when he saw Holdcraft debate picking up that weapon but deciding not to, and that all that accomplished was almost costing them the match, he realized that he doesn't want to be partners with some goody two shoes that is afraid to do whatever it takes to win. Mason said that he wants the match on Christmas night against The 37KAMIINA, but that he needs a man with guts like Bosby re-join him in folkstyle so they can beat the 2023 Trios Kingdom winners. Hunter Holdcraft interrupted, saying that he has no idea what has gotten into Shaw and Bosby, but folkstyle can't have a trios match because he wants nothing to do with either of them. Bosby said that's alright, because he has the perfect replacement member in mind already. Mason told Bosby he should have said that sooner, and the two men attacked Hunter Holdcraft. Mason and Bosby each grabbed a leg and applied the ankle lock to Holdcraft until Giant Baba Yaga and Fuego Del Sol made the save.

SHIMMER Tag Team Championship Tournament - Semi-Finals

Stephanie Vaquer and La Catalina vs. DIAMOND EGOIST (MICHIKO and Janai Kai) Stephanie Vaquer and La Catalina defeated DIAMOND EGOIST with a package piledriver into a backbreaker from Vaquer on Kai.

The Great Pro-Wrestling Adventure Hour - 029 11/30/23 Defy TV 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM EST Filmed at WCPO TV Studios in Cincinnati, Ohio

- Our show opened this week with a much different look. Our new hosts Daphne Oz, Veda Scott, Sam Leterna, and Alyssa Marino entered into a brightly colored set with a large marble topped kitchen island complete with stove top. Behind them were a stainless steel refrigerator and double oven. They made their way through the kitchen area and took their seats at an oversized oval shaped wood desk with a large screen behind it reading "THE RING" in a playful font surrounded by some fun emoji-like images of colorful lucha libre masks, sliced watermelons, and hibiscus plants. - Daphne Oz welcomed us to a new format for The Great Pro-Wrestling Adventure Hour presented by The Ring! Daphne said The Ring is your new home for the happenings behind the grapplings, they'll take on the biggest trends straight from your feed, a glimpse at another side of your favorite grunts and groaners, all this with a focus on pop culture, wellness, food, and of course, fun! Daphne introduced us to the other three members of The Ring Crew. - A new intro for The Great Pro-Wrestling Adventure Hour presented by The Ring aired set to the single mix of Belinda Carlisle's cover of "Band Of Gold." - The panel kicked things off by discussing the biggest news of the week, their Spotify Wrapped! Sam Leterna couldn't believe how much bubblegrunge she listened to this year. Alyssa Marino revealed that the place that listened just like her was…Burlington, Vermont? So random! The Ring Crew teased later in the show they'll have an expert on to discuss the developing major health story we've all been reading about.

The Andersons (Brock Anderson and CW Anderson) vs. The OutRunners (Truth Magnum and Turbo Floyd) The Andersons defeated The OutRunners with a spinebuster from Brock on Turbo.

- When we returned from break The Ring panel moved to the kitchen for a cooking segment. Veda Scott said today they'll be showing off some quick and easy options for wrestling fans to get those resolutions off on the right foot with three Superfoods With Attitudes. Veda showed us how to skip the burgers and try some bulgur with a delicious bulgur pilaf. - Alyssa Marino brought out a special guest to help prepare this next dish, it's Starboy Charlie who will help prepare a versatile Starfruit Salsa that can be paired with salads or fish. As Starboy was put to work slicing starfruit, he was asked about a match Kerry Morton made for next week after being disappointed in The Southern 6 losing to Black Generation International at the Thanksgiving Tussle. It will be Starboy Charlie and Alex Taylor against Giant Baba Yaga and Fuego Del Sol. Charlie was quick to point out that Alex Taylor was the first person eliminated from their team. - Daphne Oz showed us a great way to integrate healthy berries into your holiday parties with adorable Santas made with a strawberry body, coconut beard, a raspberry hat, and blueberry boots.

SHIMMER Tag Team Championship Tournament: Round One

Stephanie Vaquer and La Catalina vs. DIAMOND EGOIST (Risa Sera and Aoi) Stephanie Vaquer and La Catalina defeated DIAMOND EGOIST with a top rope splash from Catalina on Aoi.

- The Ring Crew brought out a special guest to discuss this very concerning health news we've all been reading about. Of course they mean Hangman Page drinking Swerve Strickland's blood. Daphne Oz brought out CORE owner and her father Dr. Mehmet Oz. Dr. Oz discussed the dangers of drinking human blood and the many pathogens that can be found in blood. Dr. Oz also touched on the dangers of the many cuts wrestlers seem to suffer near their hair lines. Staph bacteria can often be found in human hair follicles and can easily travel from the hair into these open wounds.

- Before the next match, Shaw Mason and Hunter Holdcraft made their way to ringside. Mason implored referee Scarlette Donovan to take extra time checking Bosby for foreign objects and to check under the ring for any hidden weapons.

Tim Bosby vs. Jack Vaughn Tim Bosby defeated Jack Vaughn with a ripcord lariat. - The hosts of The Ring announced that on Christmas night in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania the 2023 Trios Kingdom winners THE 37KAMIINA of Yuki Ueno, MAO, and Toy Kojima will be returning to CORE. CORE matchmakers wanted a match between them and Black Generation International, but Titus Alexander is already scheduled for a Coal Miner’s Glove match against Eddie Kingston and unfortunately Kaito Ishida and Flamita are the only other two members available on that date. So while we await opponents to be named, in honor of THE 37KAMIINA and the Japanese Christmas tradition of fried chicken, next week Daphne Oz will be showing off some of her favorite fried chicken recipes for you to try this holiday season.

SHIMMER Tag Team Championship Tournament: Round One

Blue Nation (Charli Evans and Jessica Troy) vs. DIAMOND EGOIST (MICHIKO and Janai Kai) DIAMOND EGOIST defeated Blue Nation with tombstone from MICHIKO on Charli.

- The Ring Crew signed off for this week, thanking all the viewers for tuning in as well as their guests Starboy Charlie and Dr. Mehmet Oz. Come back next week for the following matches as well as tips on how to up-cycle your old Christmas cards!

The Great Pro-Wrestling Adventure Hour - 027 11/16/23 Defy TV 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM EST Filmed at the Good Time Theatre at Dorney Park in Allentown, Pennsylvania

SEGMENT ONE (EIGHT MINUTES):

- We are welcomed in by Sudu Upadhyay who is standing at the commentary booth, Raven is splayed out behind him on a mattress. Sudu wants to know where his chair is. Raven explained that he read an article about a study where they claimed sitting is unhealthier for your body than sleeping, so he had their chairs removed and replaced with a bed. Sudu asks if Raven finds it a bit unprofessional to be lounging in a bed during the broadcast. Raven said he considered that, and originally asked for their chairs to be replaced by hammocks, but you have to sit to get into a hammock so that was out. Sudu feigned surprise that the fans were still permitted to have chairs. Raven claimed it says a lot about the loyalty of CORE fans that they are literally shortening their lives by attending the show today. Raven offered Sudu a spot on the mattress, but he opted to stand.

- The Great Pro-Wrestling Adventure Hour opening aired set to "Black Swan Lake" by Janko Nilovic.

Invictus Khash, Hyan, and Kylie Paige vs. Miles Penn, Zane Jay, and Maggie Lee Invictus Khash, Hyan, and Kylie Paige defeated Miles Penn, Zane Jay, and Maggie Lee with the Code Red from Kylie on Lee.

SEGMENT TWO (EIGHT MINUTES):

- We returned from break to Invictus Khash, Hyan, and Kylie Paige being interviewed by Sudu. Kylie appeared poised to make an announcement when she was interrupted by Kenzie Paige. Kenzie asked to speak with her sister privately, Kylie reluctantly agreed and the two headed to a side exit to talk outside. Kenzie held the door open for Kylie, and as she walked through Kenzie slammed the door behind Kylie, locking her outside. Sonny Kiss, Trench, Joshua Bishop, and Big Dan Champion of the TrustBusters and TrustBusters Reserve appeared and attacked Khash and Hyan. Trench held Hyan open for repeated strikes from Sonny while Khash was Bishop Bombed through a concession table. Giant Baba Yaga and Fuego Del Sol ran out from backstage and chased off The TrustBusters. Kylie got back into the building through the main entrance and confronted Kenzie. Kenzie said she agreed to create a distraction in return for Kylie not being attacked. Kylie kneeled by Khash and Hyan as Fuego and Baba Yaga stood over them and told Kenzie that she doesn't need her sister to look out for her anymore, because she now has people in her life she can actually trust.

The Andersons (Brock Anderson and CW Anderson) vs. Storybook Prince Gaston and Matt Williams The Andersons defeated Storybook Prince Gaston and Matt Williams with a spinebuster from Brock on Gaston.

SEGMENT THREE (NINE MINUTES):

"King Of Jersey Shore" Zack Clayton vs. Jessie Godderz Zack Clayton defeated Jessie Godderz with the fisherman's buster.

- Daphne Oz is at the CORE news desk for another edition of the COal REgion Roundup. - Oz announced that due to a recent injury, Chie Koishikawa will no longer be competing at Thanksgiving Tussle or taking part in the SHIMMER Tag Team Championship tournament. Her partner Sayaka will now be teaming with Sayaka Obihiro. - Daphne revealed that earlier in the broadcast before the attack from the TrustBusters, Kylie Paige was set to announce that Kylie and Hyan have been entered into the tournament. - While that attack may have robbed us of one announcement from Kylie it set up another. Daphne sent us to words from Kylie Paige to announce a new match for Thanksgiving Tussle that had just been signed moments earlier. In a 5-on-5 Strive To Survive match, we will see The TrustBusters of Sonny Kiss, Slim J, and JeeVeS Kay partner with The TrustBusters Reserve of Big Dan Champion and Joshua Bishop against a team calling themselves The Trust - Invictus Khash, Hyan, Kylie Paige, Giant Baba Yaga, and Fuego Del Sol. - Daphne closed out the segment by confirming that after missing his last two scheduled matches, Shaw Mason is in the building tonight and will be appearing next on the broadcast.

SEGMENT FOUR (NINE MINUTES):

Shaw Mason vs. Colton Cage Shaw Mason defeated Colton Cage by submission with the ankle lock.

- Shaw Mason made his way to the commentary booth after his match and asked the production truck to call up the footage he had asked for. We were shown a split screen close-up of Tim Bosby's singlet. Mason said the image on the left was from before Bosby tackled him under the ring in their match a few weeks ago, and the image on the right is from after Bosby reemerged from under the ring apron after Mason had allegedly been struck in the side of the head. Mason tried to draw everyone's attention to an outline he claims is visible in the before picture but absent afterwards, implying that there was a foreign object concealed in Bosby's singlet. The picture is quite zoomed in and it's very difficult to distinguish between the two. Mason then asks for before and after photos from Bosby's match with Tom Lawlor, and again claims to see evidence that is not nearly as clear as he insists. Hunter Holdcraft made his way out and said that he's really happy to see Mason again, but that he's worried about him. Holdcraft said that he really can't see anything in these images, and he doesn't think anyone else can either. Holdcraft suggests that Shaw might be having a hard time accepting that he lost to Bosby. Holdcraft said he's talked to CORE matchmakers, he's talked to Bosby, and he would like to see this settled. Holdcraft offered Shaw Mason a match at Thanksgiving Tussle against Tim Bosby with a special guest enforcer to make sure there's no cheating, Dan "The Beast" Severn. Mason agreed to the match.

SEGMENT FIVE (EIGHT MINUTES):

Starboy Charlie, Marcus Mathers, and Alex Taylor vs. Black Generation International (Action Jackson/Black Andromeda/Bendito) Starboy Charlie, Marcus Mathers, and Alex Taylor defeated Black Generation International with the Green Whistle from Taylor on Bendito.

- After the match Starboy Charlie got on the microphone and called out Titus Alexander. Starboy said it's time for Alexander to stop worrying about Eddie Kingston and face reality, Charlie challenged Black Generation International to a 6-on-6 Strive To Survive match at Thanksgiving Tussle '23 in Harlan, Kentucky. Titus Alexander made his way to ringside and accepted the challenge. Titus Alexander said he looks forward to seeing Charlie get put in his place, only it won't be by him because Titus will actually be on tour with Pro Wrestling NOAH at the time. But not to worry, as Black Generation International don't need him to take out The Southern 6. It will be The Southern 6 of Kerry Morton, "Thrillbilly" Silas Mason, Alex Taylor, and Kenzie Paige with Starboy Charlie and Marcus Mathers against the Black Generation International team of Kaito Ishida, Flamita, Keiichi Sato, Kotaro Suzuki, Black Andromeda, and Action Jackson.

SEGMENT SIX (THREE MINUTES):

- Promotional consideration paid for by the following: Kraft Stove Top Stuffing: It's it's not Stove Top, It's Not Thanksgiving. Carnation Condensed and Evaporated Milk: The cooking milk. Ocean Spray Cranberry Sauce: Power your holidays. Pillsbury Grands Biscuits: Nothing says loving like Grands Biscuits.

The Great Pro-Wrestling Adventure Hour - 026 11/09/23 Defy TV 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM EST Filmed at the Good Time Theatre at Dorney Park in Allentown, Pennsylvania

SEGMENT ONE (EIGHT MINUTES):

- We are welcomed in by Sudu Upadhyay, but Raven can be heard at the commentary table talking to someone else on his headset. Sudu tried to power through, but finally had to ask Raven what he was doing. Raven said he's making a podcast appearance, and that he can't believe people will pay him to be a guest. Raven said he's actually doing seven podcast appearances at once, he's not sure which host is talking to him at any given moment but they all ask the same questions anyway. Raven turned his attention back to the podcasts and Sudu said what he can't believe is that anyone pays Raven to appear on The Great Pro-Wrestling Adventure Hour.

- The Great Pro-Wrestling Adventure Hour opening aired set to "Black Swan Lake" by Janko Nilovic.

Queen Aminata and Raychell Rose vs. Cassandra Golden and Mackenzie Morgan Queen Aminata and Raychell Rose defeated Cassandra Golden and Mackenzie Morgan with the spear from Rose on Golden. (3:34)

- Invictus Khash made his way to the commentary booth and asked for just a moment of time to thank Hyan and Kylie Paige for coming to his aid two weeks ago after he was kicked out of the TrustBusters Reserve. Invictus said he's not sure he deserved it after not standing up for Hyan when she was kicked out of the faction, but he appreciated them all the more for it. Hyan and Kylie made their way out, Hyan said that she and Kylie were there for each other when their so called partners turned their backs on them, and that teaming together has made them stronger. With that in mind, Kylie offered Khash the opportunity to team with them next week in a six-man tag match.

SEGMENT TWO (EIGHT MINUTES):

"The King of Jersey Shore" Zack Clayton vs. Baliyan Akki Zack Clayton defeated Baliyan Akki with a fisherman's buster. (3:11)

- At the CORE news desk, it was Daphne Oz with the COal REgion Roundup. - We are only two weeks away from CORE's debut in the historic coal town of Harlan, Kentucky on Thanksgiving night. That event will be followed by a TV taping in Cincinnati, Ohio at WCPO studios. Cincinnati is home to the corporate headquarters of Defy TV's parent company E.W. Scripps. - Daphne announced the first match for Thanksgiving Tussle '23 in Harlan. In a four-on-four elimination tag match, the team of Athena, her Minion In Training Billie Starkz, Queen Aminata, and Raychell Rose will meet the DIAMOND EGOIST faction from GLEAT represented by MICHIKO, Janai Kai, Risa Sera, and Aoi. - Daphne then sent us to a very special announcement.

- A pre-tape aired which opened with a close-up on Allie, formerly known as The Bunny. Allie announced that CORE management led by owner Dr. Mehmet Oz had purchased the SHIMMER Tag Team Championship. The camera pulled out to reveal the title belts on display. Allie said that as a former holder of the SHIMMER Tag Team Championship, it is her honor to announce an eight team tournament that will be taking place starting on the November 30th episode of The Great Pro-Wrestling Adventure Hour and concluding on Christmas night at the Wind Creek Event Center in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. Allie said that there will be a special preview match for the tournament taking place on Thanksgiving in Harlan. In a four-on-four elimination match, Stephanie Vaquer and La Catalina will team with the Gatoh Move team of Chie Koishikawa and Sayaka. They will take on Blue Nation, Charli Evans and Jessica Troy, as they team with The Royal Aces, Jetta and Charlie Morgan. - We rejoin Daphne Oz who said she'll see us again next week for the COal REgion Roundup as we continue to announce teams for the SHIMMER Tag Team Championship tournament and matches for the Thanksgiving Tussle.

SEGMENT THREE (NINE MINUTES):

Giant Baba Yaga and Fuego Del Sol vs. Atomico Jr. and Epydemius Jr. Giant Baba Yaga and Fuego Del Sol defeated Atomico Jr. and Epydemius Jr. with a tornado DDT from Fuego on Epydemius. (5:12)

- Tim Bosby and Hunter Holdcraft made their way to the commentary booth. Bosby announced that they still haven't been able to get in touch with Shaw Mason, and again he didn't show up to the building. But they already signed a contract to wrestle this week and they will be honoring that, despite again being at a 2-on-3 disadvantage. Sudu Upadhyay said that they might not have heard from Shaw Mason, but that production had checked up on Shaw Mason earlier in the afternoon and just received a video reply. Sudu said he's not sure what is in it, but the production truck had just finished watching to make sure it was suitable for air and they are going to play it now. - The cell phone video was from a first person perspective with the camera pointed at two monitors in an otherwise dark room. The first monitor was playing back Shaw Mason's match against Tim Bosby in slow motion. The second monitor displayed Bosby's match against Tom Lawlor. Shaw Mason could be heard off screen, he said he was certain that after Bosby tackled him under the ring apron, he was hit in the side of the head by some foreign object. Mason was also convinced that Bosby did the same to Tom Lawlor. But Mason said he just can't prove it…yet. Mason is convinced that the evidence is somewhere in these tapes, and he's determined to find it, but that sometimes it feels like the closer he looks the less he sees. - We cut back to Bosby and Holdcraft for comments. Holdcraft is speechless, Bosby said he's very concerned about his friend; he sounds troubled and isolated and asks that Mason please reach out to them, but that they also have a match to focus on right now.

SEGMENT FOUR (NINE MINUTES):

folkstyle (Tim Bosby and Hunter Holdcraft) vs. Black Generation International (Action Jackson/Black Andromeda/Bendito) - Bosby and Holdcraft tried their best, but outnumbered they were soon overwhelmed by superior opponents to those they faced last week under similar circumstances. Black Generation International defeated folkstyle with the 450 Splash from Andromeda on Holdcraft. (5:02)

- Titus Alexander came to the ring to congratulate Black Generation International and get ready for his main event match against Charli Evans. But it was instead Starboy Charlie that came out next and made his way to the commentary booth. Starboy said that every week all they hear about is how badly Titus Alexander wants a rematch with Eddie Kingston to avenge his loss. But Starboy said that he is the one that beat Titus Alexander for the West Coast Pro championship, and yet Titus never mentions him at all in CORE. Titus was handed a microphone and replied that they do have an issue with each other in West Coast Pro, and they'll deal with that there. Titus said the reason he never talks about Starboy Charlie in CORE is because frankly, Charlie doesn't matter in CORE. Sure, he had some success beating up elderly men and their failed children, but if we're being honest Charlie has always just been Kerry Morton's flunkie in CORE. And now that Kerry brought around The Southern 6, Charlie is maybe fifth or sixth on the depth chart of Kerry's flunkies. A furious Starboy Charlie challenged Titus Alexander to a singles match next week, Alexander declined as he's leaving his schedule open so Eddie Kingston can accept his challenge after seeing what Titus is about to do to Charli Evans. So Starboy Charlie instead challenged Action Jackson, Black Andromeda, and Bendito to a six-man tag next week against Starboy, Marcus Mathers, and Alex Taylor.

SEGMENT FIVE (EIGHT MINUTES):

Titus Alexander vs. Charli Evans - Charli Evans showed heart, but Alexander gained the advantage early and dragged the match out to inflict more damage to his opponent. When referee Scarlette Donovan would threaten to stop the match, Alexander would place Charli's semiconscious body on top of his own in a pinfall attempt and kick out at two. With TV time running out and again no call from Kingston to his hotline, Alexander finally ended things with a Chaos Theory followed by a backdrop driver. Titus Alexander defeated Charli Evans with the Chaos Theory followed by a backdrop driver. (7:20)
