Intruder Steals The NWA-NY Hardcore Title
Posted on 02. Sep, 2001 by IndyCrap in Hall of Fame
It was about time he actually intruded on something.
The NWA-NY Hardcore Championship was once coveted by such luminaries as J-Lover and “Too Sweet” Tommy Logan.
Then, one day, Wacky Wayne Woo won the belt in a Hardcore Battle Royal. Then, NWA-NY started running, uh, um, less expensive shows, and Wacky Wayne Woo decided he wasn’t going to work for, uh, less money. So, he pissed on the belt and threw it in the garbage. Now that’s hardcore.
So anyway, NWA-NY ran through its box o’ gimmicks looking for something ugly, old, and yellow to replace Wacky Wayne Woo. They found an ugly, old, and yellow title belt in Magic’s fun bag, and it became the new and improved NWA-NY Hardcore Championship. It was brought to Commissioner Rick O’Brien’s office. Apparently, Mr. O’Brien didn’t learn from the bathroom mishaps described above, because he left to hang out in a public restroom while the title belt sat unprotected, with only a ridiculous sign imploring any who passed by to leave it alone.
Useless fact: According to Jim Cornette, there is a seven-year statute of limitations on stealing gimmicks
The Intruder stole the Hardcore Championship because he wanted to join forces with top heel Guillotine LeGrande and take over NWA-NY.
Don't worry brother, I work light.
Intruder then told LeGrande that he stole the belt, at which point Monsta Mack, LeGrande’s new partner, ran in from out of nowhere and kindly joined the Intruder to a nearby wall.
The angle actually served to get the Intruder over, as he went on to defend successfully against J-Lover, Tommy Logan, Frankie Starz, Dave Desire, and Rick Silver. Art imitated life, however, and when NWA-NY folded, The Intruder was never to be heard from again… and neither was his NWA-NY Hardcore Championship. Hell, for all we know, it could have been Wacky Wayne Woo underneath the mask, stealing the belt because he was fresh out of toilet paper. Either way, the belt, and The Intruder’s title “victory”, have found their way to our Hall of Fame. Of course, it could have been worse…it could have been a three-way dance championship. I’m not even going to get INTO that idea.
