Firstly, I'd like to say that Sunday would have been my father's 81st birthday. Happy birthday, Pop. Now on to busines; last week, I told you about my plans for a trios tournament in his honor. The official name for it will be "The Nick Bockwinkel Memorial Cup Trios Tournament of Champions ", but you can call it the Bock Cup for short. ( I know you all will.) In addition to the five teams that will comprise of one former Triple Crown Champion and former Unified Openweight Tag Team Champions, it will also feature a team consisting of the three men that were the National Champions but didn't win the Triple Crown or Tags. Those men are: Zeke (final National Champion), Jack Joseph (formerly known as X Jack), and "Suicide Kid " Steven Kagemann. And in the spirit of competition, Red Dragon has allowed me to pick any two SNW World and any two Duos Champions to also be a part of the tournament. At this time, I'd like to announce the two teams representing SNW. Firstly, is a man who has won every belt there is to win in SNW, and is no stranger to winning tournaments, having won the Be The Best twice. He is a third generation wrestler, much like myself. Ladies and gentlemen, Riley Shamrock! He will be captain of a team that will feature two men who are one of the teams with the most Duos Championship reigns. Reuniting for one night only, Drew Parkland and Daniel Sinn, The New Age Lady Killers! Team number two will be lead by a man who is a record holder for most SNW World Championship reigns (but I beat him for one of those ) Chris Hammers! His partners will be a young team that has really been on fire as of late in SNW. They've already won the Duos Championship in the Clash of the Duos tournament, Duke and Axel Parkland! That's all for today. Next time I will reveal the rest of the teams where I will draw from two raffle drums, one for the Triple Crown Champions and one for the Unified Openweight Tag Team Champions. Thank you.

Epic stuff Bock. Loving the team of Riley and the re-united NALK. They were my best tag team in SNW for years. I dunno about Hammers and the Parklands, it's random but u got me intrigued.

I haven't logged in for a year and a half. I try to keep an eye on stuff though. I just noticed that my character is still here. Fantastic.

(Mike Bockwinkel is shown sitting in his father's office.)
Ladies and gentlemen, thank you again for joining me. Today, I will announce the rest of the teams for the tournament. As you can see by the graphic on your screen, the first three teams have been placed in their respective spots in the brackets. The remaining teams will be drawn from these two bingo rollers, and here to help me is the former TCW Women's Champion, Kitty White!
Kitty: And Mimmy!
Bock : Yes, and Mimmy...
Kitty: Mimmy says she's happy to be here!
Bock: The pleasure is all mine. Now Kitty, will you please select the first name from the roller?
Kitty: Of course!
(She reaches in and pulls out one of the names and hands it to Bockwinkel.)
Bock: Captaining the team that will face Riley Shamrock and the New Age Lady Killers... yours truly, Mike Bockwinkel. Kitty, who will be my partners?
(Kitty draws from the second roller and hands it to Bockwinkel.)
Bock: Joining me will be: Cody Rejero and Jason Williams, the Can Am Express! Back together for one night only! Kitty, please pick the next captain.
(She picks another name.)
Bock: The opponents for the National Championship team will be headed by: Red Dragon!
Kitty: I'm gonna let Mimmy pick the next one!
(She picks another, puts it in the doll's hand and brings her closer to Mike.)
Bock: Thanks, Mimmy. Red Dragon's partners will be... oh wow! Sam and Lee Kineval! His brothers! That ought to be interesting!
Kitty: Oh no, Mimmy! What have you done?!
Bock: No, it's okay! Please, pick the next captain.
(She picks another name. )
Bock: The final Triple Crown Champion, Safu Anoa'i! Who will be his partners against Hammers and The Parklands?
Kitty: Mimmy says she wants to try again. Okay, Mimmy, don't mess up again!
(Mimmy picks another and hands it to Mike.)
Bock: Safu will be teaming with... Cam Stone and Ricky Slayer. The last tag team champions. The Insurgance is going to be on the same side. Damn!
Kitty: You did it again, Mimmy! This is bad!
Bock: No, every dark cloud has a silver lining. I may get to get my hands on all those turncoats at one time. We have two teams left to be decided. Kitty, pick another Captain.
(She picks another name.)
Bock: "Soulfire " Justin Tyger, the first Triple Crown Champion. Who will be his partners?
(She reaches in the second roller .)
Bock: Joining Tyger will be Donnie East and Chris West, Coast to Coast. The first Unified Openweight Tag Team Champions. This leaves Evan Pagano teaming with Ace Bennett and Kevin Hart, the Smokin Aces, and with that, the first round brackets are complete.
The first round will be one fall to a finish. The semi-finals will be Captain fall or both members of the tag team. And the finals will be all elimination to win. Once again, you can see the full brackets on the graphic on your screen. Next week, I'll have more matches to add, plus a big announcement. Thank you Kitty and Mimmy for your help, and thank you everyone for tuning in for this.

Interesting Bock some good choices for teams. Shame Tyger and C2C / Pagano, Ace, Hart had to face one another, either team would be favourite to win.
