Simon Cruise: Hello, hello, hello - and welcome to a very special episode of Catching the Wave! My guest at this time is the Purricane!
The crowd cheer hard as a cat scratched Donnie Valentine enters holding a burlap sack with an angry cat inside.
Simon Cruise: Donnie- what is that?
Donnie Valentine: Sorry Drift, I tried to explain that it was going to be soft ball questions, but The Purricane was pretty sure it was going to be an expose on his secret identity........... so I shoved him in a sack.
Simon Cruise: That's some top notch production work, Donnie!
Looking around at the pool of water, and remembering the shows track record for guest accidents - Simon raises a hand.
Simon Cruise: Hang on Donnie, we aren't catnappers, we should let The Purricane out, and explain the situation...
Valentine continues to walk forward.
Simon Cruise: Wait, Donnie - don't come any closer bro!
As expected, Donnie Valentine trips on the tarp he forgot to nail down - and while trying to catch his balance accidentally drops the burlap sack into the pool. Drowning the cat.
Simon Cruise: Not again...
The host scrambles to save the bagged cat, but before he can make the save The Hurricane comes out. Apparently not taking too kindly to his pet/sidekick being abducted, The Hurricane immediately attacks Cruise. The audience are deeply divided watches these two Hardkore Heroes exchange blows. It's like one of those Marvel Team-Ups where Spider-man would inevitably have a misunderstanding that caused him to fight his heroic guest star, before they put aside their differences and fought a common foe. Only everytime it looks like tensions are going to simmer, the demonic surfboard Robinson reignites hostilities. Eventually Donnie fishes the sack out and opens it...
Donnie Valentine: It turns out it wasn't Purricane, but just a random cat.
Hurricane breathes a sigh of relief.
Donnie Valentine: The cat is dead.
Hurricane fights back the tears, while throwing harder rights.
Donnie Valentine: Fortunately she has eight more lives!
Simon Cruise: Radical!
The cat emerges from the bag, alive. Simon Cruise breathes a sigh of relief. No guests drowning to death this interview? He's considering this a win

The Hurricane vs. Steve Awesome
Right before the bell, “My Name Is Human” played, and Cross Recoba showed up at ringside. Steve Awesome tried to jumpstart the match but Hurricane was waiting for him with a european uppercut. Cross Recoba appeared to learn something from that exchange. Hurricane backed Steve into the ropes with some right hands, and then shot him into the ropes but Awesome came back with a high leg clothesline. He applied a Awesome Law chicken wing crossface for a few minutes, and when Hurricane was able to work his way to his feet, Steve Awesome-plexed him. When he pulled him up, Hurricane thumbed him in the eye. Recoba nodded as if to say he foresaw that being a weakness. Hurricane ran into the ropes and hit Awesome with a thez press for a two count. He irish whipped him into the ropes and dipped down for a backdrop, but Steve Awesome caught him with a canadian destroyer style DDT called Flip of the Franchise.

During a commercial break, Marty Donovan took a picture with some local Waikiki kids from the charity Jonnie’s Kids. A non-profit tax shelter that teaches young children how to build wrestling rings and load production trucks. The ring was filled with leftover candy from concession that he was donating to the local orphanage. Despite his arm being in a sling, Marty got down on one knee so that all the kids could pose next to him. Suddenly one of the children picked up one of the glass cylinders of candy and smashes it to bits over Marty’s head! Hardkore Cameraman Jackie Valentine Jr. got a close up and it was Hasbulla. He put his trademark whistle in his mouth and began blowing it over and over. Marty was lying facedown amidst shattered glass and rainbow colored gummy worms stuck to his face, while Hasbulla kicked Marty in the kidneys over and over. The horrified children covered their mouths in shock as the silence was only pierced by Hasbulla’s whistle and Marty’s yelps of pain. Hardkore Security Larry Valentine Jr. tried to intervene but Hasbulla produced a taser. “Stay back!” Larry warned the rest of the arena “It’s got a gun!” Suddenly Tinto, aka Lil Corny came running down to the ring with his tennis racket and the crowd erupted. Hasbulla waddled out of the ring, choosing to move to higher ground. Lil Corny swung his cute little tennis racket around and around in the ring, daring Hasbulla to get in the ring. Hardkore Doctor David Valentine Jr. worked on a bleeding Marty Donovan as they came back from break. Hardkore Director Danny Valentine Jr. had to roll another commercial break as they stretchered Marty Donovan out of the ring. A concerned Lil Corny followed behind them. Suddenly, Cross Recoba blocks the stretcher convoy. The Waikiki fans boo as Recoba stares down Lil Corny. David Valentine Jr. and Larry Valentine Jr. argue with Cross until he smirks and stands aside. Marty Donovan is pushed past him on a stretcher. Cross Recoba signals that it’s all working itself out while the jeers get louder and louder. Once Marty is wheeled past him, Cross pulls him off of the stretcher! The SimpliFi Arena rocked with boos as Cross Recoba scooped Marty up and twirled around into a corkscrew tombstone known as Up All Night In Dakota on the concrete! Kilroy Evans ran out and chased Cross Recoba off but the damage was done.
Kalmin Watts vs. Sweet Bone Daddy
Japanese wrestler Sweet Bone Daddy made his Hardkore debut wearing a black full body suit with plastic bones attached to it by velcro, forming a skeleton. He took on a masked Kalmin Watts, who is still recovering from an orbital injury. That injury seemed to have affected him a great deal, as Sweet Bone Daddy was in control for a good deal of this match. Sweet Bone Daddy arm dragged and hip tossed him around the ring. He gave Watts a spinning toehold, and then dropped, crushing his knee into the mat. Daddy threw his skull mask at Watts, but then appeared not to be able to see. In the confusion, Kalmin Watts hit him with an Oklahoma hammer that didn’t hit it’s mark just right, and then piledrived him for the win.
Reptile vs. El Rey
Reptile looked a lot like Scorpion, but with a green outfit on. He caught El Rey with a Japanese arm drag, but El Rey had a deep arm drag of his own. El Rey got the jump on him with a snap suplex, and then caught him looking with a springboard dropkick. He lead Reptile into the corner with a three quarter nelson, and then ran up the turnbuckle into a sliced bread #2.

Team Fairtex (Tong Fairtex & Phantam Fairtex)
vs.
Divine Night (Randy Candy and The Rookie)
Phantam flipped Randy with a Jiu Jitsu judo toss into a stepover armlock, and then used his free hand to tag in his brother, Tong. He irish whipped Candy into the ropes, catching him with a powerslam for a two count. Oahu, Hawaiian native Randy Candy ducked a muy thai strike and rolled Fairtex up in a backslide for a two count of his own, and then tagged in the haggard looking Rookie. The Rookie climbed to the top turnbuckle and caught Tong with a flying spin kick and then went for a suplex, but Fairtex blocked it and countered with a series of three amigos snap suplexes. He tagged his brother Phantam back in, who climbed to the top turnbuckle as Tong irish whipped him into the ropes. Tong flipped him in a belly to belly suplex as Phantam came off the top with a corkscrew senton Fairtex Bomb for the 1-2-3.
“The Punisher” Dan Stein vs. Tuna Meltzer
Hardkore World Heavyweight Champion Cross Recoba appeared at the top of the ramp to do some scouting. Tuna Meltzer was instantly reviewing their match, and calling Dan a dud before the bell even rang. Once it did, Tuna went to put away his clipboard, and then turned and smashed it over Dan’s head. Dan looked down at Tuna, who gulped. Meltzer offered a discounted subscription to his ad free podcast but it was too late. Meltzer’s review omitted a lot of the one sided violence. The stiff alabama slam that whipped his head into the ring. The regal cutter that made Cross wince. The brutal stompdown in the corner caused a despondent Cross Recoba to cover his eyes and walk to the back. Mercifully, Dan put it all to an end with The Final Solution rings of saturn that Meltzer quickly submitted to. Dan Stein stood on the second turnbuckle and dared Cross to come back to the ring.
Moondog Dook vs. Florida Man
Moondog Dook was all over Florida Man at the bell with bites and headbutts. Dook grabbed him around the head and running bulldogged him. Dook went to the corner to grab his chain, but Florida Man hit him with a low blow. He cracked Dook in the jaw with Kira’s Jawbreaker that dropped him. When Dook got up he was hit between the eyes with a high angle knee strike called a Marcehochicknee. This just made Dook mad, and he got right in Florida Man’s face. Florida Man then appeared to offer Dook some food stamps to take a dive. Suddenly, Dook’s long nagging back injury kicked in and he fell to the mat in agony. Florida Man put a foot on him to get the pinfall.
Hardkore Women’s Championship
Rin Kubo vs. Mary Yellowbird
280 pound Mary Yellowbird lit up Rin with some tomahawk chops and then tried to squish the 147 pound Kubo with a bearhug. But Kubo headbutted her way out of it, and then hit her with a dropkick, a european uppercut, and a flying shoulder tackle, but nothing that could drop the big Native American. Finally, Rin Kubo climbed to the top and nailed Yellowbird with a diving european uppercut that finally floored her. Rin got on one knee and bowed for the cheering fans. When Mary Yellowbird got up, Kubo caught her from behind with an edge-u-matic Maple Leaf Buster. She climbed to the second turnbuckle, but when she jumped off Mary Yellowbird clotheslined her out of mid-air. Yellowbird bounced off the ropes and then splashed Kubo’s back with her nearly 300 pounds. Mary Yellowbird climbed to the top turnbuckle, a little wobbly, and jumped off with a flying dropkick, but Kubo got out of the way and Yellowbird crashed backfirst onto the mat, with her head cracking the mat. She staggered up into a Rin Factor stunner, and then Kubo shot her into the ropes where Rin nearly took her head off with a Burning Sword lariat for the thrilling victory.
