Good match. Lance has really improved since the last time I’ve seen him. Ortiz reminds me of Bam Bam Bigelow as he’s a bigger guy who shows some real agility at times.
Tommy Dreamer, Devon and Abyss came to the ring. Dreamer thanked everyone for the support and said he is a wrestling fan too. He said this isn’t for the DVD but for everyone here. He said that he’s the original
Paul Heyman guy and Paul always said never lie to the audience. He said he’s going to tell the truth.

Someone yelled, “F**** you Dixie.” Dreamer said he got a call last night at 11:30 PM that Bully was pulled to go to some Spike show per Dixie’s orders.

Several of HOH’s students tried to run in but were killed and thrown out of the ring. Anderson continued beating down Collins and “Enter the Sandman” began. You all know what that means.
Anderson started looking around and challenged Sandman to come out and face him. Sandman walked in from the side door of the building and made his grand entrance in the crowd. Sandman hit the ring and cleaned house on Anderson.
It’s time for the aforementioned national TV show taping, for a series called “Impractical Jokers.” The gimmick of the show is that a comedian is dared to go into a situation and his fellow comedians feed him lines and actions to do. So, here we go.
A guy dressed like Peter Pan came out to some very silly kid’s music. He said that his name was Cutie Pie and he likes to cuddle. He talked about beating his opponents with diabetes and asked the crowd to yell out their favorite scene from the Notebook. He said that he was the cutest man in the game and ain’t no boy as fancy as him. He asked who else was waiting for marriage to make love. He said he hates being in the ring and would rather be in a promise ring with his girlfriend. He said he’s going to copy and paste his opponent into a word document and delete it.
Out came Tommy Dreamer. He said that he gets what he was doing but warned him to never disrespect the wrestling fans because they are all a family. He said they are dysfunctional family but one nonetheless. He said that when you say you hate being in this ring, he has 2,000 people here who would kick your ass. The crowd popped. Dreamer said that the
history of this building has been driven by wrestling fans and they are the sickest, most hardcore fans and he loves them off.
Dreamer said that he is at the House of Hardcore and he runs a school for people who were fans who want to pursue their dreams. He said that this is his house and if you want to disrespect his house, there are initiations to be in his house. He said if you want to be in his house and on TV, well, “Welcome to my house.”
Cutie Pie was told that he can leave through the people and die or you can leave up the ramp. Cutie Pie said that if Dreamer wants him to leave, make him. Dreamer grabbed him and chopped him in the corner. He then brought him to the other side of the ring and did it again, the brought him to a third corner and wailed away on him. Dreamer grabbed him and suplexed him, then locked in a crossface.
Dreamer took the mic and said, “I made something famous – thank you sir may I have another?” Dreamer asked him if he respects what they do. Cutie Pie said yes. Dreamer said it’s really not fair to kick his ass, so he called all his friends from the back (all the HOH students) to come down to the ring. Dreamer instructed them to “surround this young man.”
Dreamer said that Cutie Pie has a choice. He can stay and let all of these students “tear you up” in a Battle Royal. The crowd popped for that. Dreamer said he has eight people who have been training here every week to have their first match tonight. Dreamer said that he can take his ass kicking like a man or he can admit he’s a girl and he can walk out with his tail between his legs. He asked him if he’s a man or a little girl. Dreamer asked Poughkeepsie if they want him in or out of the ring. They yelled “in.” Cutie Pie admitted he’s just a little girl. He ran away.
