Mindsweeper Monday: TCCW 15

TCCW are wrestling stories from two different Yahoo! groups from the early 2000's. These entries were part of a much larger universe led by other writers. There are references to characters, events and matches that will not be posted here. Titles change hands, friendships and alliances form and dissolve, all without you ever seeing it. Imagine you are watching an Indy fed sporadically.

Note: You can find ALL (?) the stories by all authors in order in their original versions HERE - thanks for the link, Mangler!

Texas College Championship Wrestling 15

Robert (MW) versus Jamie (MW)



INTRODUCING FIRST, MAKING HIS RING DEBUT, WEIGHING IN AT 162 POUNDS, WEARING THE BLACK AND RED SINGLET, HERE IS JAMIE!

Jamie came trotting out of the back. There were immediately whistles as he smiled for the crowd. Jamie was great looking, with a killer smile. He was 21 years old, 6'2" tall and had a lean runner's body. He was mainly into track but really wanted to try wrestling. He had signed up planning on wrestling a lot but it hadn't worked out that way.

When the promoter called him about today, he immediately decided to show up and check out Middleweight Thursday. He was almost ready to chicken out when he saw Robert.

Robert was the star of another school's track team. Jamie was a middle distance runner, specializing in the 400, while Robert was a sprinter, holding the school record in the 100 and long jump. Both wrestlers competed in the 200 for the relay. He and Robert had a small rivalry and agreed jokingly to battle it out in the ring.

Jamie was tall, thin and tightly muscled. His "singlet" was actually his running suit. It worked perfectly as it was flexible and light. It clung to his body tightly which kept down wind resistance on the track but also gave the crowd a little thrill too.

Jamie ran his hand through his short, dark brown hair and smiled sheepishly. He was glad to be wrestling another novice like Robert.AND HIS OPPONENT, ALSO MAKING HIS RING DEBUT, WEIGHING IN AT 168 POUNDS, WEARING THE BURGUNDY SINGLET, HERE IS ROBERT!

Robert stepped out and stopped in front of the curtain. He was surprised at the number of people. He had come down on a whim and didn't have anyone in the crowd. He recognized a couple of guys from school and smiled at them.

Robert was leaner than Jamie but had a hard and powerful sprinter's body. He had strong legs, and a hard body. He walked to the ring and went to his corner.

Robert was less of a prettyboy than Jamie was. His dark spiky hair was highlighted with red. He was a year younger at 20. Robert had always loved wrestling and TCCW was perfect. Robert saw his good friend Grant in the crowd. Grant was a big thick weightlifter who had also not wrestled yet in TCCW. Grant was hoping that today would be his first match. He made a fist and gave Robert a sign of support. Their sparring would hopefully pay off with a victory!

The ref explained the rules, being extra careful because both wrestlers were novices. Jamie and Robert shook hands and stepped back. The bell rang. It was time to wrestle.

The two wrestlers moved together. They awkwardly lifted their hands for a tie-up. Neither wrestler was confident in their ability. Robert had at least sparred with Grant but Jamie's knowledge came from gym class in amateur wrestling.

Robert forced Jamie into the corner. He drove a forearm into Jamie's chest before the ref ordered him out of the corner. Robert felt badly that he had "cheated". He apologized to the ref and to Jamie. Jamie laughed it off. His tight chest wasn't as thick and impressive as Robert's but it could take a forearm shot.

The wrestlers locked up again and Jamie drove up with his knee. It caught Robert by surprise but bounced off his steel abs. The wrestlers backed off and recouped. The match was slower than the earlier ones, as both wrestlers had to think about what to do. There was some restlessness in the crowd starting.

Jamie and Robert tied up for a third time. This time, Jamie used his leverage advantage to turn Robert. Jamie swung his arm around his neck and cinched in a headlock! Jamie cranked hard on Robert's head, Jamie's lean muscle punishing the bigger stud.

Robert tried to force Jamie to release the headlock by hammering his back. Jamie held firm. Robert reached around his trim waist and lifted Jamie into the air! Jamie felt disoriented but as Robert held him, Jamie kicked his legs hard. Robert lost his grip and the wrestlers crashed down, Jamie rolling Robert under him, the headlock still intact.

Jamie held Robert in the headlock refusing to release it! He hiptossed Robert onto the mat, laying him flat on his back. Jamie put his weight onto Robert's bulging chest and squeezed harder on the headlock.

The crowd was getting back into it. They liked Jamie's tenacity with the hold and Robert's attempts to counter. It was starting to get good.

Robert was moaning under the taller wrestler. Jamie tightened the headlock but knew he would need to do more. Jamie hesitated as he had no idea what to do next. He thought about his strategy in the ring. He decided to whip Robert into the corner. He would try and weaken Robert's back.

Jamie forced Robert to his feet and slammed Robert into the corner, then flung him across the ring. Robert went flying across and slammed hard into the far corner. He slumped slightly in pain.

Jamie ran across the ring, leaping into the air to deliver a splash! Robert ducked to the side and Jamie crashed hard into the turnbuckle. He hung over the top turnbuckle for a minute, gasping for air and trying not to lose his lunch.

Robert spun the staggering Jamie around. He hammered his fist into Jamie's stomach, forcing Jamie to his knees! The one punch flattened the tall stud.

Robert knew that he should continue to concentrate on Jamie's abs. The missed splash had really hurt the lanky wrestler. His handsome face was showing the pain.

Robert forced Jamie to his feet, easily supporting the taller wrestler's 162 pounds. Robert pushed him back into the corner. He bent down and hammered his shoulder into Jamie's midsection. The whoosh of air was audible. Jamie was forced back into the corner. His weakened midsection slid forward only to be met with another shoulder block!

Robert delivered five shoulder blocks in total before moving back. Jamie stumbled out of the corner, practically out of his feet. He looked for Robert and saw the sprinter charging at him. Before he could move, Robert's powerful legs drove him into Jamie's ailing abs and planted him hard onto the mat!

Jamie crashed back hard, his stomach and back both screaming in pain. Robert sat up and punched his fists into the wide-open muscles! The six-pack was starting to soften noticeably. Robert felt more and more confident.

Jamie was trying to escape but couldn't seem to move. He looked up and saw Robert had moved to stand over him. Robert lifted his right foot and the running shoe came down hard onto Jamie's abs! Jamie didn't know how much more he could take!

The stomps came fast and furious. With Jamie just lying spreadeagle on the mat, completely winded and beaten, Robert jumped up and delivered a flying headbutt to Jamie's abs!

Jamie almost puked as he coughed and sputtered! Robert wasn't finished though! He forced Jamie up and locked him in an abdominal stretch! Jamie moaned in agony. He felt burning in his side and abs unlike any he had ever felt! But his training had taught him to resist pain. He focused, summoning all his strength and flipped the bigger wrestler over!

Robert crashed onto his back. Jamie could not take advantage and stumbled back to his corner. He waited, needing time to recover desperately. When Robert had reached his knees, Jamie charged forward.

Jamie raised his hands to smash down on Robert with a double axe handle but Robert was ready! Robert lifted his right hand and drove it forward. He clamped his open hand into Jamie's abs!

Robert dug the claw in, completely shocking Jamie who just went limp! The crowd was stunned as Robert from his knees was controlling Jamie on his feet. Jamie tried to pry off the claw but couldn't. He fell forward, falling onto Robert's shoulder!

Robert maintained the claw as Jamie got weaker and weaker. Robert drove forward and forced Jamie from his shoulder. Jamie was smashed on his back, Robert holding the claw the entire time. As Jamie crashed back, he felt like the claw ripped right through him!

Jamie screamed his submission! "STOP! PLEASE STOP! OH I GIVE! I SUBMIT! OH STOP!"

Robert immediately released the hold, surprised to hear Jamie so emphatic in his submission. Jamie curled into a ball, clutching his stomach.

As Robert had his hand raised, Grant was excited. Not only because of his friend's victory, but because it meant their sparring was really working! It gave him confidence to issue his first challenge. Grant went to the back to meet up with and congratulate Robert. He would also scout the crowd for a suitable challenge for himself!

Back in the ring, Robert and Jamie were shaking hands, Jamie still in obvious pain. Jamie realized that wrestling was much harder than he thought. He realized he would need to make a big decision - he would either have to get serious or quit.

THE END
