The following is a report on the first night of the mega pro wrestling event that is taking place at the Gaylord Entertainment Center in Nashville, Tennessee. The event was originally scheduled for the Fairgrounds Arena but with the NHL lockout, Gaylord management was more than happy to fill their empty arena with some paying customers.

The unprecedented show will be broadcast live without commercial interruption on The Outdoor Channel with financial underwriting provided by a series of corporate sponsors. With over 250 individuals and close to 60 matches, this is the largest single undertaking in the history of the sports entertainment business. Former TWF owner and founder Don Haney joined with former TWF heads, Gary Holmes, Robb Tracey, GW Perry, Chris Haney, Bill Gilman, Jim Moloney and Brian Black to bring this event to television.

==================================

Backstage: Don Haney meets with his former staff and fellow owners.

Show opens with Haney greeting current TWF honchos.. Large dining room shot finds former TWF officials entering. Kentucky Connection followed by GW Perry, Gary Holmes, Robb Tracy, Chris Haney. Brian Black, Anthony Davis, Desmond Stohler, Chris Nevels, Jeremy Riley, Cory Harris.. Noticable in his absence is one time CWA chieftan, Jim Harper, apparently the only alumnus not joining the lovefest?


Jeff Perkins Hey look at this spread! Is that real butter or oleo?
Bob Snapp That's butter! But what do we spread it with... the saltines?

Bill Gilman rushes into the room.....
Bill Gilman Hey, sorry I'm late!
GW Perry No problem, we're used to it.
Bill Gilman: What does that mean?
Jim Moloney: We remember your cards!
All HAAAAAA!
Cory Harris Why am I here?

Cory Harris: Yes, yes I did.. for at least three weeks.

-------------------------------------------------------------

Opening Match:

Widowmaker & Apokolips vs. Two Dudes with Attitudes


Early TWF midcarders battle surf dudes in opening contest. Dudes get the upper hand and look primed for victory when well known preliminary gang of Jobber the Hutt, Skidmark Steve & Elmer Adonis, Jr. rush the ring! The threesome bring the crowd to their feet with a beatdown utilizing several buckets of KFC extra crispy. Apokolips and Widowmaker exit in disgust.. realizing just what made them leave the TWF in 1998... as the dudes are left literally licking their wounds and the trio of attackers soak up the cheers of the crowd, finally getting their well deserved moment in the sun!

Note: With this venture costing some seven million dollars to produce and purchase on a major cable network, and done with a commercial free format, Don Haney tips his hand by showing that product placement is going to run rampant during the event. With well placed shots of everything from R.C. Cola to Yankee Candles during the night and taking a page from NASCAR by getting corporate sponsorship of a large amount of matches, it appears that Haney will walk away from this event sporting another hefty profit.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

$300 To The Winner!

Stanley Stanley vs. Herb Wreenkle vs. Dale Sandusky vs. CD Carroll vs. Tex Mullins vs. Phil Wreenkle


Apparently Haney thinks this is a payoff for his longtime group of company jobbers. All five men are in the ring at once and nothing of any real significance happens as Mullins misses a stunner, Phil Wreenkle's ankle turns on a bodyslam attempt and Sandusky fails in his attempt to apply an abdominal stretch! Herb Wreenkle goes for the atomic drop on CD Carroll and blows out his knee on impact. Mullins clotheslines Sandusky and seperates a shoulder!

Pretty hilarious to see these guys really try... Less than two minutes into the match and we see Armageddon run into the ring and clean house! The 7'1" 400 pounder, who began as a member of the original Unholy Alliance as their answer to the demonic Golden King but then fell into the hands of Brian Black and his failed attempt to takeover the TWF in late 1998... he simply overwhelmed the group of weaklings and stole the brown bag filled with thirty ten dollar bills. Not a lot of excitement from the crowd of 14,000 plus.

But wait, as Sandusky and Mullins scream for Armageddon to come back, Heartbreak Meyers, the wildy popular Austrailian charges the ring with a boomerang and nut shots the giant! The big man goes down like he is shot and HBM retrieves the money bag and enters the ring.... presenting it to Dale Sandusky! The journeyman can't believe his eyes... he is screaming at winning the $300.00!
HBM: I can't help myself!

HBM delivers the sweet groin music to Sandusky and then orders Tex Mullins to count... 1--2--3! He did it again, defeating Dale Sandusky to run his overall record to 37-0 against his lackey!

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Cruiserweight Two Ring 3-Way Dance: Winner wins endorsement deal with Shasta Cola:

Aaron Blaze vs. Rob Blondie vs. Pedro Chihuahua vs. Ryan Windsor vs. Skeletony vs. Bobby Dundee


These four great cruiserweights got the crowd up and on their feet. One of the the things that the TWF always has had are great cruiserweights and these four do not dissapoint. This is a spotfest of activity with a flurry of non stop action. Herb Wreenkle and Stanley Stanley, who had been left lying on the floor after their just completed thrashing, try to join the fray. Dundee and Skeletony find themselves more inclined to discuss the young Dundee's father, who was supposed to have made a promtional appearance but failed to show. Skeletony chases Dundee to the back accusing his father of being a drunken lush. Young Bobby flees with his hands over his ears!

Blaze, who started in the TCW as a 16 yr. old, hits hurricanranas on both Wreenkle and Stanley. The great Mexican veteran, Chihuahua, drills the egomaniacal Windsor with a frankensteiner as Blondie sends Blaze over the ropes! Pedro thinks he gets the duke, forgetting about Blondie and slips on a Shasta Cap.... Blondie with a backdoor rollup... 1--2--3! Rob Blondie has shocked Pedro and reigns supreme....as flashbulbs catch the new spokesman for America's #12 cola!

In the back.....Mack Tharp enters and is greeted by several of his former security guys. Bam Bam Bell follows....
Tex Watkins: Hey Mack, what's up?
Mack: Wouldn't you like to know?
Bam Bam Bell: Hi guys.
Bobby Sharp: Hey Bell..
Tex: What's he doing here?
Mack: Wouldn't everyone like to know? Come on Bams.... let's blow this joint!
Camera shot of Tex Watkins and some raised eyebrows..

Handicap Match:

Captain America vs. Brett Clark & DV8 & Dark Angel


2004 TWF star, Captain America, is led down to the ring by Robb Tracy who is passing out complimentary tickets to the TWF's next house show, scheduled for sometime in 2005 at the Armory in Hohenwald. Tracy also poses for a few photo ops, at eight dollars a pop.

Captain America begins systematically destroying his opponents.. DV8 is layed out minus a tooth, Angel winds up in row one while Clark, an early TWF performer who doubled as DWF owner, Clark Dargie, is hung by the neck between ropes two and three! As Dargie is trying to escape, Jeff Perkins, Bob Snapp and Jim Moloney run to the ring and begin whipping him with a cat of nine tails...
Perkins: So you put your guy over us in your stinking fed?
Snapp: And told us he wasn't you?
Moloney: Suffer the same shame you forced upon Dr. Midnight when you had him lose to Panther!

Referee Big Phil Phillips sees quite enough and with everyone out of the ring except one, he awards the match to Captain America and then gets dribbled on his head!

As Captain America is leaving the ring, he is attacked by the crazed Muslim, El Qasr Sallah Casbah! The Arab is a wild man who can not be tamed! He drives a camel's tooth into the ribcage of Captain America and then beats Phil Wreenkle, who was talking to a fan at ringside, with a turban from the head of his manservant, Baboo! And then.... Camel Piss! Camel Piss! Captain America is left distraught at ringside by the attack of the crazed Arab!

In the back.. watching on the monitor...
Don Haney: Camel piss, I love it!
Chris Haney: Ever had it with raisins pop?
Don Haney: What?
Chris Haney: Camel piss.. I love it!

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Battle of the Giants:

Golden King vs. Kevin Slay vs. Apox vs. Lo$t $ouL vs. Big Boy Bell vs. Harry Nutt vs. Canibal

The big boys of Tennessee wrestling hook up for bragging rights, determining just who is the real giant of theTWF! The bout is done with Battle Royal rules with Harry Nutt being the first man deposited over the top rope,
courtesy of the original TWF member, Golden King. Big Boy Bell went out next, grabbing the crotch of Kevin Slay and taking him along for the ride.

Cannibal was given the loop de loop by Lo$t $oul who followed closely on his heels, thrown out by Golden King. This left only the King and Apox.... the seven foot Apox ripped off his mask, revealing another underneath, one with a question mark prominently displayed. The crowd yawned at this attempt by Apox to draw a pop, enraging him to the point that he nailed Golden King with the big clothesline, sending him packing! The winner of the match and the newly recognized Giant of the TWF...Apox!

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Mr. Perfection vs. Professor Perfect vs. HST Gonzo

Bout was supposed to be between the two perfect fellows to determine perfect supremacy. HST Gonzo, who will toil later in the evening arrives and claims that he and his partner Jackylfan could fillibuster these two imposters through the mat and back. The two "perfect" gents take exception and try a quick doubleteam attack. HST Gonzo blocks the attack with a hidden thesaurus and then dispatches the pair with eye gouges from Hades! The crowd warms up to the tag team legend..... at that same time that HIM and LB3 appear on the pedestal of fortune and begin talking ryhmes of some reason to their long time adversary. Gonzo answers with like venacular and the pace quickens.... The delivery becomes so rapid that Don Haney sees the possibility of a combination wrestling promotion/auction tie-in for later in the year! Finally, Red Simmons and Mack Tharp break up the insanity of it all and edge the Wakkos to the back!

Professor Perfect tries to use his heinous dictionary but Gonzo is too quick, he blows a charm toward the Professor who seems dazzled, or dazed, take your pick? Gonzo kicks Mr. Perfection in the knee and then hits the Professor with the clutch of misery and just like that... it's over!

SUPERCARD OF THE CENTURY!

Tonight's event brought to you in part by:

Pabst Blue Ribbon


This afternoon session featured four more big matches in the series of events. Most of the TWF's former brass are still in attendance although they are shocked to find that last night's buffet area has been replaced with a few buckets of mints and nuts.....

Camera pans the arena floor where last night's crowd of 14,000 is down to maybe a couple of thousand die hard fans......

Red Simmons is seen signing autographs at the TWF picture table along with Steve Xodiak, Harry Nutt and former WCW phenom Glacier. Don Haney is there as well but is engaged in a conversation with George Gulas, apparently listening to the son of Tennessee's legendary promoter Nick Gulas trying to garner a gig over the next few nights. Camera switches from the arena shot to a cramped studio where Lance Russell and Dan McKnight are about to provide results and highlights from the afternoon event.

==================================

Lance: Hey looooooo... and welcome to day two of the big event! The wrestling event that has thre world turning on it's ear!

Dan: Well, at least on day one Lance.

Lance: Hey yoaaaaa... what do you mean Dan the Man?

Dan: Well Lance, you've been down on the floor. 14,000 last down and maybe twelve hundred today. When is Haney bringing out the big guns? Fans aren't gonna fork over thirty bucks a session to see Tex Mullins and Dale Sandusky. Look at today's matches.... no Think Tank or Sweeny or Savage or Unholy Alliance... not even an ex FWF guy or well, not anyone of their ilk. This could get ugly!

Lance: Hoooaaa now... Mr. Haney has a well laid plan and you have to be in it for the long haul old boy. Fans must view the entire event, in the context it was intended. So stay tuned lad and enjoy!

Dan: How old are you now anyway?

Lance: What!

Dan: You were an announcer when they used ketchup for busted skulls... that was in the late 50's. Man, you might die while we wait for this thing to finish!

Lance: Never fear, I am as virile and immaculate as ever... let's roll those tapes!

Dan: Whatever you say father time!

--------------------------------------------------------

Winner receives Scott Hamilton's tutu:

Bam Bam Bell vs. Trey Reed vs. Hans Schmidt vs. Trent Storm

It's the battle of the TWF fairys and the crowd seems ..... well, excited? Storm should have been the favorite, or maybe Reed, as both men garnered some success in the old FWF but Bell and Schmidt would prove that the gay roster of the TWF equals all comers. Schmidt grabs Storm in a full nelson and begins screaming.... "He is all man! I am feeling faint!" Bell slaps Schmidt, and dresses him down verbally! Trey Reed tries to escape but is grabbed by Storm and jerked back in!

Storm refers to Reed as a "b###h" and they tangle like wildmen! Schmidt pokes Bam Bam with a thumb to the testacle and then begins scratching Storm, clawing him like Eva Gabor! Storm screams for Schmidt to stop and grabs a mic.... "I am not gay! Why am I in this match?" ..... Storm then kicks Hans in the sack and headbutts Bam Bam in the teeth... Bell loses a loar! Trey Reed approaches Storm and demands an explaination? Storm tells him to prnace around if he wishes but he is leaving.... "THIS IS AN INSULT!"

In the back, Mack Tharp watches on a monitor.... "Great! Storm is quitting, this gives Bam Bam his opening!"

As Storm tosses his sweat towards the ring and exits, Hans rolls up Bam Bam and grabs some extra crotch in the meantime.... Reed races over and maes the save....

As a true catfight breaks out in the ring..... A masked individual charges the ring with a silver sceptor! He skulls Storm on the runway, then Schmidt, and Reed..... and finally, uttering thses two words, "You Brute!", he belts Bell and escapes from the ring with Scott Hamilton's tutu! As he runs down the ramp, the camera can identify nothing but the number 13 on the seat of his leotards!

In the back......

Mack goes crazy! He screams for Tex Watkins, Bobby Sharp.... Al Barnes, Big Philbert and Mike Hinson appear as well. "What's wrong Mack?"

"Did you see that? Some %^#$$ just stole the tutu... Bams was about to win the match! Go and get him.. stop this, stop it now!

Legendary TWF senior official Ben Pace enters and states these few words, "Mack, you don't work here anymore. Go get it yourself if you are so inclined?"

Mack breaks down and storms out as we return to the studio.....

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Dan That's exactly what I am talking about! The only wrestler of note, Trent Storm is embarrassed and humiliated and leaves before the match ends. Fans are booing Lance... booing!
Lance Well nowwwwww... Maybe they are and maybe they aren't but what a match! Roll them reels boys, we got another big one!

Elimination Tag Team Match: Battle Royal Style: Winning team becomes #1 contender for All Japan World Tag Team Title:

Da Gangstas vs. Gabriel and Lucifer vs. Dill Doberg & Master James vs. Ziegfried & Hitler vs. The Russians vs. Savior & Offspring vs. Ellis Mascotti & Billy Thomas vs. The Interns vs. The MVPs vs. Porter Hall & Eugene Smith vs. Pepto Dismal

Twenty two men in a battle royal elimination match means only one thing..... Mike Hinson is assigned by Chris Haney to call the match! The Interns are out first when #2 gets caught in a gut wrenching salto of fury placed by Ellis Mascotti and then pinned by Dill Doberg. The Russians go down next when the one with the long name stumbles over the top rope after ingesting too much vodka! Proving that they are something less than most valuable, the MVP's are tossed at the same time by Smith and Hall. Randy Hitler laughs and points and gets kicked in the seat of his swastika by Billy Thomas.... Ziegfried must exit as well.

Da Gangstas are run out of the ring by the fierce attack of Pepto Dismal, eliminating the once mediocre team. Master James connects with the mauling dropkick which eliminates Gabriel, and by default, Lucifer. Porter Hall and The Tylenol guy both are toppled at the same time which eliminates their teams, leaving only three to go. Two of the teams have loose ties with the vaunted Unholy Alliance and they bum rush Master James... it's four on one whenj Dill Doberg flies like a eagle.... he connects fromn the rear and out goes Doberg, Thomas, Savior and Mascotti..... Hinson struggles to render a decision when.......

It's the Dealers in Smack! They charge the ring... the infamous pair from the original days of the TWF! They attack James.... then Offspring! They toss them over and look at the referee who raises their hands! Blind Mike Hinson gives the #1 contendership to a team that wasn't in the match!!

Savior and Offspring begin arguing with the ref at ringside and are quickly joined by Dr. Midnight and Ric Justus from the Unholy Alliance! Whoa now!! Midnight and Justus attack the pair while everyone else leaves the area. Doc and Justus dismantle everything reasonable about Savior and Offspring and leave them lying at ringside, discombobulated indeed! Heart and Soul..... together again.... and the Dealers in Smack... There's your pop!



Dan Well Lance, you got me there! The 1200 in attendance were treated to a real luive surrpise with the DIS making their comeback and Midnight and Justus finally giving those two imposters what they deserved! Bravo TWF... Bravo!
Lance You never know what you might miss if you aren't here in person. Call the TWF offices right now at 1-931-628-0583 for current pricing!

-------------------------------------------------------------------

All Japan International Heavyweight Title Match: (Battle Royal Rules)

Karl Schmidt (Germany) vs. Wrestler X (Mexico) Vs. Jamie Krenshaw (Austrailia) vs. Canadian Patriot (Canada) vs. Tojo Saito (Japan) vs. Ares (Greece) vs. Nikita Sputnik (Russia) vs. Johnny Putrid (Ireland) vs. Thomas Lane (Great Britain) vs. American Patriot (USA) vs. La Calavera (Puerto Rico) vs. El Qasr Sallah Casbah (Jordan) vs. Issac McBride (Egypt via Harlem)


Now the pace quickens as we get some pretty decent names in this one. It's Battle Royal Rules and it wasn't long before the first victim fell. The Puerto Rican, La Calavera was crushed beneath the massive girth of the Canadian Patriot and since this is Tennessee and nowhere else, he is eliminated by pinfall and rolled out of the ring under the ropes. Johnny Putrid, once regarded as a real "find" by Don Haney is next to leave, tossed out by the hair of the head by Sputnik! The legendary Greek, ARES, is triple teamed and tossed as well!

With nine men remaining, with get the always hated double flip flop to the floor as McBride and Schmidt go out next. The two Patriots battle while Lane pokes Sputnik with the finger of horror! Tojo is sneaking in the corner, staying away from the fierce action. Casbah is about to make a move when,.,..... from earlier in the night, Captain America returns, drenched in camel piss... he has a milk jug... full of.....

HUMAN PISS!

He tosses it in Casbah's eyes and then piledrives Baboo on the floor! Casbah is blinded and falls over the top rope! The Captain has his revenge! OHHHH.... Lane and the American Patriot bang heads and fly out of the ring! Tojo stands and laughs and is nailed in the back of his oriental head with a running lariat by Krenshaw and is out of there! It's Nikita Sputnik, Jamie Krenshaw and the massive Canadian Patriot who remain!

As the three men battle, former TWF honcho Bill Gilman arrives at ringside with Johnny Carteris and Paul Leonard, apparently he has a managerial role with the duo. He is pointing and giving advice when Carteris produces a bottle of Crown Royal. Don Haney runs to ringside and blesses out Gilman, explaining that Jim Beam is a "sponsor" and not Crown Royal!

Sputnik just tossed Krenshaw! We have but two men left......

Back on the floor... Carteris, apparently quite drunk, gives Haney the finger... then does the same to Leonard who is trying to calm him down! Gilman is beside himself as Leonard slaps Carteris and vice versa! Seeing his managerial role going up in flames, Gilman tries to step between the two and gets molested for his efforts... he is skulled by the bottle of Crown! Security makes a beeline to the floor and seperate the two "associates." Gilaman is helped to the back by Haney who is still dressing him down!

Sputnik with the running clothesline inside the ring! CP ducks and then lifts his huge body, catapulting Sputnik over the ropes and to the floor.... Canadian Patriot has done it again, shocking TWF fans like he did once before... winning the All Japan International Title!

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Dan Wow Lance, I take back my previous oratory, this has been hot!
Lance Hoooweeeeee and it ain't over yet! Let's see that last match Harold!

Winner main events for Bert Prentice and NWA-Nashville for six weeks!

Dread vs. Dan Druff vs. Scumbuster Brown vs. John Lorenzon vs. Green Bean vs. Mike Maddox vs. Tyson Dane vs. Psycho Bunny vs. Mule

They say that old Bert could make any man a star in just one night? And if you don't believe us, ask Mike Rapada, the Colorado Kid who keeps going back to Bert for more!

We have a wide array of talent here, covering everything from 1999 up..... even old Scumbuster Brown closed down the video store long enough to drive 110 miles and compete. It's more battle royal action and this one proceeds quickly since there are only six minutes left before killing deer with bowie knives is scheduled on the Outdoor Channel.

In jusy two minutes, we are down to just three men, Psycho Bunny, Druff and Brown.... as they prepare to square off.... from the rafters of the coliseum.... a man dressed in a Donald Trump mask rapels to the ring! He is small in stature but a house of fire! Dan Druff and Brown attack but run smack dab into the middle of each other and fly backwards over the ropes and to the floor! Trump hits Bunny with a flying head scissors and spins, gyrating like a battery operated top... Pschyo Bunny is eliminated! Now what? What?

Referee Mike Hinson steps into the ring and raises the dudes hand! Off comes the mask and .... it's Lord Byron III! LB3 of the Wakkos has stolen this match and will headline for Bert Prentice in Nashville? I don't know......

LB3 does a bit of the famous Fargo strut as the crowd gets giddy!

Bert rips up the contract in front of everyone and LB3 offers an Italian Salute.... wait! Racky Wreenkle, he of the dastardly Wreenkle side runs like a gazzelle to ringside and attacks Bert Prentice as LB3 laughs in the ring! Racky is kicking Bert in the seat of bulbous behind... the crowd loves it! He rips off Bert's shirt! He rips off Bert's t-shirt! He rips off Bert's britches! And then.....

A masked individual rushes to Bert's aid! He shoves Racky back and tosses a blanket over Prentice. Is it the Colorado Kid? Is it...... wait, as they run down the aisle, we see nothing but the number "13" on the back of the benefactor's trunks..... Thirteen? Hmmmmmm?


To be continued......

Prelude: After an unsuccessful Tuesday afternoon matinee which drew just over one thousand paying customers, the TWF returns to Thursday night and 4100 show up at the Gaylord Entertainment Center....


Mack Tharp is seen standing out front, looking somewhat gaunt and dissheveled. Rob Blondie is sporting a Lord of the Ring jacket with a photo of Frodo Baggins embossed within a TWF logo.

Hardcore master OutKast is signing autographs out front for a bunch of teen toughs dressed in hard hats. GW Perry is caught in the hallway telling Dougie Aines that he will come out of retirement for this event!

The Think Tank enter to a huge roar from their myriad fans.... Jackylfan salutes with a secret sign! Some guy dressed as the late Sterling Silver screams obscenities at Jade Diamond as he enters the building. Dustin Iler is spotted holding court with several wrestling writers, touting a DCW jacket.....

It all means one thing.... SHOWTIME!

SUPERCARD OF THE CENTURY!

Tonight's event brought to you in part by:

Ender vs. Void: Well, here we go..... One of these men fights shortly for the North American title... and it was a good one! The two went back and forth, toe to toe, tooth and nail and when the dust had cleared, who was it that advanced?

Ender! The somewhat confusing grappler has advanced to the finals to face the winner of the next match.

Punisher vs. Victor Alkehine: Punisher seems confused, and anxious... After being accompanied by his brother Panther for his first two victories, the fan favorite is now nowhere to be found?


Cut to the back..... Panther is seen lying on the ground, his clothes ripped to shreds and a clotting of blood in his mane. Above him.... grinning and giggling, Barry Savage, JJ Pierce and Dougie Aines..... "See, we haven't forgotten how to make our own statements! Come on guys, now maybe old GW will share our concerns with old man Haney?"

As the three men exit, Savage makes one more statement, pointed towards a fourth individual. "Adam Young, glad to have you with us son! You might make a decent outlaw after all." Young laughs and steps on Panther's outstretched body as he joins his newly made friends in leaving the room.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

North American Heavyweight Title Tournament Final: Winner becomes the recognized Heavyweight Champion of North America!

Ender vs. Victor Alkehine Quite an intriguing matchup as we have the very unorthodox Ender, a TWF phenom in the year 2000 going against the man who won not only the 2004 Dixie Rumble but also reigned as the very last TWF World Champion, Victor Alkehine.


The match was hot.... it brought many a high spot. There were several near falls and close two counts but it was a misplaced camera that ended this one. With Ender in control, Ryan the Giant climbed to the ring apron to record the coup de gras. Ender went with one last running lariat but Alkehine ducked and Ender collided head first with the Giant and the camera! Victor, seeing his opportunity, struck live a western diamondback and plucked victory from the jaws of defeat.... senior TWF official Ben Pace counted the 1---2---3 and Alkehine had the most important victory thus far in the tourney!


To be continued tomorrow.......

***It's day four of the TWF's supercard and things are now beginning to heat up! Some of the truly big names of the federation are seen in various areas...... Dominic is spotted in the lobby talking with Red Simmons, just past them, it's Anthony Davis, Brent Kersh and Dylan Jones.


At the TWF souveneir truck outside the arena, Marcus T is there along with Beld Painkiller and they are selling old IWA t-shirts! Wow, those must have been in moth balls for awhile?

Mack Tharp and Bam Bell are again at the arena, Bam Bam in hot pants and Mack in a floor length rabbit coat.

Inside one of the arena offices...... Des Stohler walks in and extends his hand to Don Haney who thanks him for the sponsorship from Stohler Enterprises. Des nods cordially and pats Dustin Iler on the back... Iler sporting a corporate looking DCW monogram on his button up shirt. As the two leave.... Haney looks over at Gary Holmes and his son Chris..... "Remember Matt Moon and the BTW? ............... I really enjoyed bankrupting them!"

To the TWF truck where Clyde Andrews is manning today's recap.

Welcome to tonight's hour of power here on The Outdoor Channel. I am Clyde and it falls upon me to single handedly bring you the best of tonight's show, so sit back and relax and as my good friend Lance Russell would say... roll the tape guys!

Supermarket Sweep King of Extreme Match!

Motorhead Massacre vs. Mike Hynes vs. OutKast vs. Frank Letters vs. Havok vs. Billy Bob Brown vs. Nirvana vs. Hex Jaxon vs. The Freak vs. Menace vs. Hardcore Jay


It's the TWF at it's best, or worst, whichever you prefer? Eleven of the baddest dudes in the history of our sport will go inside a local Kroger store, rented by the TWF for the next hour... to destroy each other and everything in sight. Let's check it out!

Right off the bat we get carnage.... Billy Bob Brown is assaulted by Hex who drives a cheese wedge into the guys mid orafice! Brown squeals like Ned Beatty and runs out of the store!

You see The Freak and Motorhead over near the Duracells and it's Motorhead who finds them first! He slams pack after pack of the big flashlight batteries against the head of Freak, until the poor guy is finally out of it. Referee Big Phil checks the situation and counts Freak out... two men down!

It's summer sausage time as Frank Letters goes to town on Menace! He pummels him with wreckless abandon leaving Menace knocked out colder than the frozen yams on aisle seven! Action is all over the place as Chris Haney monitors the situation and stands guard over the gourmet food section, holding a sign that reads... "TWF Hardcores... NO ENTRANCE!"

Referee Alfred Barnes sees a man down and races for the pincount.... It's Mike Hynes who has been bludgeoned with a smoked turkey by Nirvana.... he is counted out by Barnes and we have only seven men left! Havok and Hex Jaxon are at it as usual, back near the meat locker when Frank Letters and OutKast shove them inside the meet freezer and latch the lock shut... You can hear screams and banging on the door but they are esentially... out of here!! Referee Barnes declares both men eliminated and now, maybe they will beat each other to death?

OutKast has the cheese grater! He starts to work on poor Nirvana, slashing his forehead like limburger! Nirvana is a bloody mess... OutKast drops the grater and walks away when Hardcore Jay comes by and drops a watermelon on Nirvana's convulsing noggin! It's another man down and out! Just four to go before some is crowned the King of Extreme!

As Jay laughs at Nirvana's plight, a gallon of buttermilk explodes up side his head, compliments of OutKast who knows how to play this game! Hardcore Jay is out.... knocked as senseless as Adam Young's Nazi gimmick!

Only three men left and Motorhead Massacre gets mustard in the eyes and squid ink in the face, ... direct from Frank Letters! As this is taking place, OutKast, the TWF Hardcore expert comes in from behind and delivers a knockout blow to Letters in the way of a 25 pound bag of Trailblazer dog food, one of our fine sponsors of this event.... by the way, Letters is down.... Motorhead gets matching cans of clam chowder to the sides of his head and he goes down....

Referees arive.... they check..... Letters and Motorhead down.... and out! OutKast has done it, he reigns supreme and is indeed the TWF's King of Extreme!

-------------------------------------------------------------------

In the back...... Gary Holmes and Robb Tracy are seated with a couple of individuals..... "I know you have had your differances and all, but sometimes we have to press forward and do what is beneficial for everyone involved. And guys, I see this as very, very beneficial."

Camera pans over...... Dave Dexter and.... Mike Haggar!!

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Arm Wrestling Match:

Herakles vs. Thor


In the battle of two of the TWF's more powerful and mystical individuals, it's Herk and Thor.... the referee, Alfred Barnes locks them up and away they go! Herk has the advantage... then Thor... then Herk..... crowd squalls! Crowd remembers neither of them!

Herk is there.... wait, now it's Thor! Crowd roars their disapproval.... nearly 5000 of them strong! Someone win.. or break a limb! Hey.... thank the good Lord, we have interferance, it's Inkarnate!

InKarnate interferes but is thrashed by both men..... Thor and Herakles toss him out of the ring and are about to rejoin their match once in progress when.......

Dan Sweeny and Dickie Wreenkle show up holding up their "When World's Collide" Tag Team Championship! They proclaim that they were never beaten.... ever, and are truly the only undefeated team in the history of the sport! They also claim that they have now been champions for almost six long years......They laugh at Herakles and Thor and tell them that they should count themselves lucky that they aren't coming in the ring to whip them!

Suddenly, the D.O.C. arrives from behind and lay into the Dick and Dan, who like the true champions they are, run away! Aaron Christopher and Max Steele charge the ring and attack the two warriors inside! Blows are exchanged and then Christopher nails Herakles with a "hidden object!" They then dismantle Thor and grab the house mic...... "Old man Wreenkle.... and jew boy Sweeny.... the only reason you are undefeated is that you haven't wrestled in five years! If you are more than cowards, then let's get it on!"

The DOC tosses down the mic and struts off to the hisses of the assembled masses!

-------------------------------------------------------------------


In the back....... ..... where original TWF signee Merlin, nowdays known as Merlin Moloney, is busily addressing former TWF chieftan Jim Moloney......... "But dad!"

"For the last time goof, I am not your dad, that was an angle, a gimmick.... got it?"

Merlin nods.... "I got it dad, now what are we gonna do together while we are here in Nashville?"


More to come.......

Continuing day four of the Supercard......

Lucha Libre Extravanganza! (Winner will headline the next supercard in Mexico City, fighting for the World Cruiserweight Championship)

Cobra Coyle vs. JJ Pierce vs. Diamond Dogg vs. Paul Richards vs. Sgt. Slam vs. Lou Szer vs. Judge Turnbow vs. Eric Ray Vaughan vs. Jackson Crowe


In the back..... Don Haney and Brian Black are with Racky Wreenkle.... Haney shouts at him! "Listen you little bas*ard! You have done nothing but caused me trouble ever since we started this business! Get your a$$ out there and wrestle!"

Racky laughs, "sorry uncle Dandy, I ain't no crusierweight! I fight the big boys... get back with me in say, another 30 matches!"

Haney looks at Black as Racky waltzes away... "Where's my knife?"


In another office..... Jim Moloney is talking with Bob Snapp, Jeff Perkins and Anthony Davis.... "Who booked Diamond Dogg in this match?

Davis shrugs.... "I don't know, why?"

"Because he's dead!"

Perkins laughs... "He can vote in Tennessee, but not wrestle?"

Molony looks over at Snapp, "Well, Dogg for sure ain't here.... go tell Pedro he's on again!"

Just as the match is about to begin.... Dylan Jones arrives and enters the ring and addresses Gary Holmes who is about to do introductions. The "Iceman" is apparently stung that he is not included in this event. He remarks that it was he, not these other men who made the cruiserweight division famous in Tennessee. And if that weren't enough, the music blares and we see another man come to the ring..... Darrell Anderson, who enters and puts on the mask of... Falconer!

Anderson/Falconer explains to Jones that things will work out, that he always looked up to the Iceman and he was the man that made him become the great crusierweight he was. He extends a hand to Jones who turns and walks away and deliberately walks back up the aisle.

As Falconer watches... the bell rings and he is attacked by a half dozen of the cruiserweights. By default, Falconer has now become a part of this match! So once again, with a couple of changes we have.....

Lucha Libre Extravanganza! (Winner will headline the next supercard in Mexico City, fighting for the World Cruiserweight Championship)

Cobra Coyle vs. JJ Pierce vs. Pedro Chihuahua vs. Paul Richards vs. Sgt. Slam vs. Lou Szer vs. Judge Turnbow vs. Eric Ray Vaughan vs. Jackson Crowe vs. Falconer


As the action heats up and Pedro and ERV assist Falconer in beating back the others, Dylan Jones stops at the top of the ramp. He watches as a large group of fans chant Iceman! Iceman! Iceman! He nods his head and mouths the words..... "thank you." He begins to stroll back to the ring where he then starts offering encouragement to Falconer.

Inside the ring, Paul Richards is the first man out.... tossed with a flying dooby dot by Cobra Coyle! Sgt Slam attacks Pedro while Judge Turnbow offers legal advice to ERV....

Jackson Crowe, he of the legendary losing streak has been ousted by Lou Szer! While this occurs, Sgt. Slam is sent packing by Cobra Coyle. That's one of the true legends gone! And as that happens, Judge Turnbow nails the cross body on Coyle and both men are out!

Just like that, we are down to five combatants! Pedro with the flying dropkick of tequila... nails Lou and there goes Szer, out of the ring! Just four men remain!

Falconer with the bench press of faith! He gets ERV over the top ropes and to the floor... we have but three men... Falconer, Pedro and .... JJ Pierce, who has been blending into the background!

Pedro looks winded... the effects of his medical problems plus the partying ways of the Unholy Alliance must be having an effect? And now, here comes Barry Savage and the Outlaws from the back! Pierce is perched against the ropes.. Falconer has been laying it on him! Falconer grabs Pedro and whips him towards Pierce, Savage grabs Pierce, takes him down and Adam Young grabs the top rope and Pedro flies out! Referee Mike Hinson apparently missed it! Pedro has been eliminated!

Now Dylan Jones is trying to explain to the referee what happened? He is up on the apron... Pierce is behind the referee, taunting Dylan! Savage enters the ring.... the branding iron! He whacks Falconer in the back and then whips him towards the ref and Pierce... Dylan has his fist cocked and swings just as Pierce and Hinson step sideays... He connects with Falconer! Jones is beside himself... he goes to the floor and puts his hands on his head. Pierce rolls up Falconer.... Hinson counts... 1----2---3!

Falconer

Can you believe this? J.J. Pierce of the infamous Texas Outlaws... I don't think he was considered one of the favorites... but he has just won this match and all the glory that goes with it! Barry Savage, Dougie Aines and Adam Young are here with him and are celebrating but on the other side of the ring, it is far from a celebration!

Dylan Jones is trying to explain to Falconer what happened? Falconer rips off his mask and now it's Anderson who hurls the mask at Jones and storms off.... Oh the madness of it all! Two of the TWF"s greatest fan favorites about to come to blows... this just isn't right!

-----------------------------------------------------

Backstage with Jim Moloney & The Big Red Scare:

"BRS, you know we shook up the wrestling world back in 1999 and we could do it again."

They exit into the hallway where several lesser known TWF journeymen are talking.

"Well Jimbo, you always played me fair... and square.... but I am in kind of, you know, hostile territory so I brought some insurance along."

Out of the shadows...... "GRAVESTONE!"

"Come on Gravy, let's see if we still got it?" The two men attack Fritz Schmidt, Tito Mendoza, Quan, Curt Lynch, J-Pac & Giles Coney as a stunned Jim Moloney watches in horror! The six men are dispatched with rapid and lethal success and left in a heap....... "Well Mr. Moloney, I think we still....... have it!"

----------------------------------------------------

The Midget Match:

Mini Midnight vs. Donny Iler vs. Ultimo Ankelbiter



In the back...... We scan the locker room where we see the Think Tank playing chess.... and across the room, The Stink Tank playing checkers!


The midget match brings joy to the fans, well... for about one minute until LB3 arrives and destroys the festivities! Lord Byron attacks Mini Midnight and tosses him over the top rope to HIM who stuffs him in a duffel bag! It's the Wakkos at their worst!

Ultimo and Iler are also dispatched pronto and placed into the duffel bag by the huge HIM who throws the bag over his shoulder and starts shouting... HO HO HO!

----------------------------------------------------

To be continued tomorrow..... Next Up: The Specialty Matches!

In the back with Gary Holmes and GW Perry..... The two TWF suits are discusing a matter with two former TWF greats.......
Gary: There is a situation developing.... amd it could threaten the very fabric of what we are doing here.
GW: And we need to make sure that when it finally errupts, we have two men who are capable of putting out the fire.
Gary: The challenge... is formidable. We hope we can count on you two?
Camera pans around to see Dave Dexter and Don Gotti......


In another area....... Marcus T is holding court with some local high school wrestlers when Chaos and Jason Starr approach and begin poking fun at his abilities. Words lead to action and Marcus T is attacked by the two men! Starr and Chaos throw Marcus T through a vending machine and tell the horrified kids that the next time they need pointers, check with the real pros!


And finally...... Mack Tharp and Bam Bam Bell arrive at the arena, Mack in a courdoroy suit and Bam Bam in a roller derby outfit! Bam Bam is full of himself as he and Mack pass MOX...... then HST Gonxo.... Dan Sweeny and Dickie Wreenkle...... Viking Fury..... and Panther......

Mack looks at Bam Bam..... "losers, all of them! You are the man and tonight, we prove it!"

THE SPECIALTY MATCHES!

=============================
Hog Troth Match:

Gideon Trait vs. Three vs. Jon Sullivan vs. G Money

The opener of the legendary TWF specialty matches has one half of the nefarious Stinkers, Trait minus Oscar squaring off against young Jon Sullivan and G Money. Of course the object of this match is for one man to stay clear of the troth and the others to wallow in it. Sullivan is out of his element while Mr. Trait is happy as a hog in sunshine with this type of match. G Money is apparently here just for the payday?

G Money goes for the high spot and is flipped backwards into the slop! As he soaks in the corn mash and spoiled cream cheese, Trait makes short work of Sullivan and slams hin right into the ruined melons! The stink is bad... I mean bad and several fans near the troth are overcome with nausea! One chunks his lunch on Sullivan who then pukes on G Money! Trait is beside himself with glee when the DOC, Christopher and Steele arrive and toss the big man into the same mire! The puke fest continues as we cut to.......

The office of Don Haney........

Don Haney: Chris.... get this list to Brian Black and have him ready the plaques by the end of the week.

Chris Haney: What is it?

Don Haney: It's the newest edition to the Tennessee Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame..... and make sure that you keep them under your hat, lest they fall into the eyes of any interlopers.... if you know what I mean?

Chris Haney: Gotcha, will get it right to him. Chris can't control his curiosity and opens the folder to see what name... or names are on the list? "Hmmmm, very surprising!"

---------------------------------------------------

Russian Chain Match:

Dean Williams vs. William White vs. Chaos


These three are hooked together with the long steel chain and the winner will be the man who escapes his tormentors and is able to touch all four corner ring posts in succession. Chaos has to be the favorite as Williams is in semi-retirement while White has taken a step backwards since his day in the TWF.

After about four minutes, Chaos has taken total control and makes his move.... he touches one, then two, then a third and is about to touch post number four when.... Marcus T arrives and skulls Chaos with a chair shot to the brain! "What was that Chaos? Learn from the pros.... well that's a professsional chair shot.... remember it when you wake up!"

Marcus T leaves to a roar from the crowd of 4600 plus and with all three men now down... Bam Bam Bell rushes to the ring, led by Mack Tharp. He unchains Chaos and applies the strap to his own wrist! He quickly moves around the ring and nails all four corners.... Mack looks at Mike Hinson, screaming.... "It's Over.... It's Over!" Hinson looks confused, as usual.... and raises the hand of Bam Bam Bell, the winner of the Russian Chain Match!


In the back....... A masked man is watching the monitor.... "What is this guy doing? Trying to steal my thunder? Well he will pay, he will surely pay... and so will his Mack Daddy!"

Texas Cowbell Match:

Sean Devine vs. Dougie Aines vs. Lance Latham

The rope is attached to the wrists of all three men and in the center of the hemp bonds is the brass encrusted cow bell, available for use for the first man who retrieves it. Aines, one of the oldest men participating in this mega event would have to be the most experienced of this trio, especially with his association with the infamous Texas Outlaws.

With the match in full throttle, Devine makes it to the cowbell and hammers Latham! The Lance is lanced and splits open, the crimson mask has come out in full force and the TWF faithful loves it! Aines is trying to fend Devine off but Sean keeps pressing..... and then...... The Outlaws appear! Savage, Pierce and Young...... They bum rush the ring! Savage has the infernal branding iron! Savage smashes Devine and places Aines on top but referee Big Phil will have none of it and calls for the bell...... Savage nails Big Phil with the branding iron!

Pierce and Adam Young hold Devine up when.... It's the DOC, Steele and Christopher joined by Skeletony! They charge the ring... Christopher with a steel chair and he nails Aines.... then Pierce! We have a full fledged donnybrook! The referee is down.... and out! TWF security is flying to the ring..... and then out the same way they came in... Tex Watkins, Sam Spivey and Bobby Sharp are not enough firepower to stop this!

Here comes the Stink Tank, they want part of the action! And right behind them... it's Abe Lincoln, Lou Ferrigno, the Leper and Bobby Dundee! The ring is filling up with wrestlers... Brian Black, Gary Holmes and Jim Moloney are at ringside and screaming for this to stop!

Skeletony just got the branding iron shoved up his..... Ouch!!

Adam Young has the nazi helmet, where did that come from? He plants it over Dundee's noggin and the son of the superstar is dazed! More TWF security and referees are arriving... there's CD Carroll and Bobby Page... Tub Lowery and Harold Cochran..... Ben Pace and Al Barnes... and here comes the Wakkos! And the Think Tank... followed by Justus, Midnight, Lobo and Odin! How many of these guys is Haney paying to be here?

Midnight hammers Abe with the enema bag, the Heartbreaker has Aines in the scales of Justus.... Steele is wearing a steele chair for a collar! There must be forty guys in the ring! The fans are inching closer to the ring... they have bloodlust in their eyes!

Adam Young just lost a tooth, compliments of HIM and HIS elbow! More security is on the way... here's Stanley Stanley and Dale Sandusky.... Tito Mendoza and Silver Eagle.... along with TWF attorney Donald Schwedimann! Now the Haneys are out here and pleading for order!

Oscar just wound up in row one! It's the fat lady, with the purple eye shadow, the one who was at show numer 1, 22 and every one thereafter... she whips Oscar with her purse and goes for the hatpin! Leper is nailed with a beer bottle from Lobo! Uh oh.... here comes the cops! Metro police hae arrived and the fans begin to boo and hiss....

I have never seen such a brawl! Police are escorting wrestlers out of the ring... Lance Latham just got judoed by somebody large.... Abe Lincoln is pleading for peace! Security is now inside the ring... maybe 15-20 TWF guys and they are restoring order! Haney is having a hissy fit and addresses his associates.... "Are you taking names? I want to know everybody that's involved... somebody write it down!"

After what seems an eternity... order is finally restored and Haney storms off with the rest of his suits... you can bet, there are going to be serious, very serious repercussions!


That's it for day five.....

Welcome: It's another day at the Gaylord Entertainment Center as the TWF Supercard of the Century moves into it's next night. This evening, the specialty matches continue, certainly a Tennessee tradition as we have the taped fists, the brass knuckles and the tar and feathers flying. So sit back and enjoy the next sixty minutes on The Outdoor Channel, your source for bloody animal hunting and the blood and guts of the TWF.....

In the back..... Bill Gilman is talking with the two men that he had hoped would lead him to TWF supremacy, Paul Leonard and Johnny Carteris.... "Listen guys, we must be one, we must be on the same page here. Haney and his minions will destroy you if they are so inclined, and you allow it to happen. But together, we can rule the business and they can rue the day I was born!"

Paul Leonard looks at Gilman, and then a drunken Carteris.... "Me, you and Otis "the town drunk," ruling the TWF huh? Maybe you better get old Johnny into a twelve step program... or get me another foot soldier?"

Carteris peers at his bottle of Hennigans..... "We can do it, I was a world champeen... we can dooo it."

Gillman shakes his head back and forth.... "I know, I know... I have to do something, and quick!"


---------------------------------------------------

Taped Fist Match:

Merlin Moloney vs.Big Money Benjamin G vs. Scarface

It's the alleged son of former TWF honcho Jim Moloney versus the red hot Big Money Ben and the nefarious Scarface with the fists taped solid in a battle of hard lefts and rights!

As the match begins, Scarface attacks young Moloney and beats him unmercifully about the eye sockets! Big Money stands and laughs at the two, Merlin trying to fight back!

Quick cut away to another part of the arena.... Darrell Anderson is talking with HIM and Sigmund Chaltry when Dylan Jones walks by......

"Hey Iceman, how goes it? Man, I am sorry about the other night.... things just got heated and...."

Jones stops Anderson in mid sentence.... "No need to continue Anderson, let's say that my return trip to Tennessee has enlightened me... See you down the road?"

Chaltry looks at HIM and then at Anderson, "What's that mean?"

HIM laughs.... "Somebody's gettin an a$$ kickin?"

Anderson looks perplexed, "Hey, I tried to apologize, did he blow me off? Did he diss me? Well, did he?"

HIM and Chaltry laugh and walk away.

Back inside the ring... where Moloney has mounted a comeback and is giving Scarface all he wants. Big Money is still sitting this one out, leaning over the ropes and talking to some front row fans. And now Jim Moloney is coning to ringside, he has a valentine in his hand.... Merlin sees him, "Hey dad! Hey... you got your Valentine!! More excited than Carlton Banks at a Tom Jones concert, Merlin starts hopping around and telling his "daddy" that he will win this one for him. On the floor, Moloney is shouting at Merlin to get a life, repeating that he isn't his daddy!

As this goes down, Big Money leaves the friendly confines of the corner and nails Scarface with a double barrelled shot to the chin... Man, that scarred his face! Big Money drops down and makes the pin count as elder Moloney is trying to tell junior Moloney to around! The 1--2--3 takes place and Big Money has scored victory... Merline finally spins and is greeted by a right cross to the kisser as Big Money ambles away, the winner of the prize purse and another notch in his TWF belt.

Jim Moloney rips the Valentine card and tosses it into the crowd as he walks off in disgust.... with Merlin crying for him to come back! It's tough love indeed in the TWF!

---------------------------------------------------

Brass Knucks Match:

Zanther vs. Beld Painkiller vs. Max Steele

The gloves are off and the knucks are on as Darrell Anderson's sidekick Zanther squares off with hardcore legend Beld Painkiller and D.O.C. alumnus Max Steele.

When men are wearing Brass Knucks, there is no turning back.... and the match isn't going to last long. A few well placed shots means that blood is going to flow and that is what happens here but it is done with an interesting twist? Naturally, as one might expect, Aaron Christopher arrives to offer backup to DOC partner Max Steele.... with all three men being bloodied, Darrell Anderson shows up as well to back up Zanther... which leads to Christopher and Amderson coming to blows on the floor! Referee Al Barnes leans through the ropes and tries to order them to stop......


In the back.....

Undertow and Mox look over at Jackson Crowe, he of the marvelous grappling ineptitude and Undertow issues two words..... "Let's go!"

Back in the ring where Steele just fired a haymaker that nailed referee Al Barnes as he turned to the action! The ref is down...... Beld Painkiller is fighting Zanther as Anderson and Christopher brawl towards the back, headed up the ramp where they are passed by Undertow, MOX and Jackson Crowe!

The three interlopers enter the ring with clubs and attack..... Zanther and Steele!! They are laying the beatdown on the two men... Beld is standing and watching, readying for the coming attack..... but it never comes. Zanther is clubbed unconcious.... the three attackers leave the ring as another referee is dispatched from the back! Ben Pace slides in the ring and sees Beld pin Zanther... Steele tries to crawl over for the save but MOX holds his leg from the outside as the ref counts the 1-2-3 and Beld Painkiller, the legendary hardcore warrior has walked away with this match and the glory of winning it, with a huge assist from three men who had no apparent ties to him?


---------------------------------------------------

In the back....

Don Haney passes Brian Black in the hallway.... "Did you get those Hall of Fame names?"

Brian responds, "Yeah, yeah, got it and working on it Don.... but, I got something else for you."

Haney keeps walking, "What is it?"

Black raises an eyebrow... "How would you like to bring back the dead? The biggest match in history... dead men rise in the TWF!"

"That's so crazy that it is interesting.... look me up in a few, I have to go meet with Jack Bone and Brent Kersh... We'll talk later."


Tar and Feather Match:

Tennessee Burroughs vs. Dub Swine vs. Jason Starr

It's Tennessee's own Burroughs taking on the once sizzling Swine and the respected veteran Jason Starr in a match where one man will indeed be tarred and feathered!

Referee Mike Hinson calls for the action to begin and Burroughs tries to maul Swine... Starr sees the opening and joins in and the two men double team Dub! Lou Ferrigno arrives at ringside and starts signing autographs and posing with adoring fans... Superstar Shawn Mallis appears from nowhere and attacks Lou's bad ear! Mallis hammers him with a chair shot while action in the ring continues....

Cut to the back...... Undertow, MOX, Jackson Crowe and Beld Painkiller are seen in the locker area..... Undertow is holding court. "Beld, I hope we have an agreement? There are strength in numbers my friend, as each of us has now realized. The TWF will eat you up and spit you out if you try and excel alone. We have all experienced this."

Mox adds, "And we don't plan on it happening again. We have the brains, you have the brawn, as Mr. Crowe has learned, it's new dawning in the TWF.... and you are welcome to be a part of it."

Beld wipes blood from his eyes.... "I might look stupid and I might sound like an oaf, but I ain't one or the either.. count me in!"


Back in the ring where Starr has taken charge! His former associate Shawn Mallis has left Ferrigno down on the ground but now Leper, Abe Lincoln and Bobby Dundee have arrived and chased the hysterical Superstar away! They apply a poultice to Lou's ear and lead him to the back... Starr has Swine set up for a shooting star press when we see more visitors.... Marcus T! The legendary one has not forgotten the attack by Starr and hammers him with a boat paddle from behind! Starr takes a hard fall to the concrete floor! Marcus has the tar... and dumps it on Starr... and there are the feathers! He assaults Starr with that bucket of bilowing feathers and Starr is incensed but incredibly groggy! Referee Hinson is calling for the bell and tossing out this match as Marcus T grabs a mic...... "Where did I rememebr these words.... leave it to the pros! Yeah.... right!"

To be contined......

Next Up: Six Man Chicago Street Fight--- First Blood Match and the newest induction(s) into the Hall of Fame!

Announcement: Pulling the old switcherooni. Don Haney moves the scheduled card around and announces that a special Iron Man Battle Royal is taking place on day seven of the TWF Supercard..... but after the announcement, bad news arrives! Let's head into the offices of the TWF to see what surprises we have in store?

Don Haney: Okay guys, let's get an update on how this thing is progressing? Ratings? Receipts? Net profit? Fan response? Merchandise sales?

GW Perry: Ratings.... pretty good Don, The Outdoor Channel says we are drawing more than the Ted Nugent Elk Hunt, they seem happy. Fans seem pleased, lot's of hardcore TWF fans who are clamoring about a possible return. Merchandise sales are lethargic! But Don, there aren't a lot of demands for Burton C. Bell fingers and Elmer Adonis headbands, maybe we should try a more current approach?

Gary Holmes: Revenue is well, dissapointing.... to say the least. This building is costing us a fortune Don. 35 grand a night in rentals and our ticket sales are simply not recovering the cost. Plus the amount spent on the roster is enormous. We have to catch up with merchandise sales and concessions and right now..... it's not good.

Don Haney: When you say not good, just how bad is not good?

Gary Holmes: After six shows, we are close to 60,000 in the hole.

Don Haney: That's it! Who's idea was it to rent this palace? Was it Red Simmons? Cochran? Dunn? Just who? I know, it was Mack Tharp, that's who! He's already fired though! Well, changes are a coming men.. and now!

Chris Haney and Brian Black walk in with Dan Hall and Merle Emery, representatives with the Gaylord Entertainment Group.....

Don Haney: What do you pirates want? More blood?

Dan Hall: Uh sir... I don't know what you mean?

Don Haney: I'll tell you what I mean... We are out of here! We are headed to the fairgrounds! You think you can rob us blind? Well think again Poindexter!

Merle Emery: You can't just up and leave? What about all your promotion?

Don Haney: I can and I will and let us worry about the promotion end of things! We are on a daily performance contract and our day is done. Go rent this hellhole to the Ice Capades cause the TWF is out of here baby! Now get the hades out of here and we'll not be far behind!

The two astonished Gaylord reps leave the room and Haney whips the group of commrades into a frenzy!

Jim Moloney: I am on it Don.... to the fairgrounds, immediately!

Chris Haney: I'll get concessions from our roster, we'll guarantee deferred bonuses for smaller up front payouts!

Bill Gilman: Yeah, deferred payments that will never be paid on time?

Chris Haney Like you know anything about being on time?

GW Perry: I'll get Kinkos to get some up to date photos copied and hawk them personally at the picture table!

Don Haney: Good, good... guys and GW, lots of Texas Outlaws, Unholy Alliance and Jade Diamond. That should cover the red necks, the beer guzzlers and the homos!

GW Perry: I am on it now!

Gary Holmes: Clicking shut his cell phone.. Two TWF buses are coming to the arena right now, entire roster can be at the fairgrounds in an hour.

Don Haney: Great! We need advertising?

Chris Haney: I'll send HBM and Dave Dexter to a radio station I know and get some free publicity... and we'll trade back row tickets for free plugs... plus I'll get something running on WB-58, they owe us a favor.

Don Haney: It's fabulous!

Jim Moloney: We'll pack the place tonight and do a raffle at intermission... we should make back at least half of our hole in one show!

Don Haney: What a bunch of guys! Consider yourselves resigned all the way through the end of this thing...Let's get to the fairgrounds!


Part Two Immediately Follows......

Two hours later......

Hello, this is Red Simmons and we are here at the real home for Tennessee wrestling, the fairgrounds arena just off of Nolensville Road in south Nashville! And this is where the TWF will continue this multi-night event which has come to be known as the TWF Supercard. An event that has brought together close to 300 of the men and women and midgets who have worked in this great organization over the past six years!

It's the grand reunion event and tonight, right here on the Outdoor Channel and the WB-58 in Nashville, you will be seeing an incredible event indeed! A fifty man battle royal of epic proportions! That's right, fifty men inside not one, but two rings.... and the last man standing will receive lots of geritol and some cash... so get ready, be prepared because the Iron Man Battle Royal is on the air now!


The Iron Man Battle Royal: (Winner will receive a year's supply of Geritol!)

Glacier vs. Lethal Larry Ryan vs. Tex Mullins vs. Dread vs. Dale Sandusky vs. Eddie Fedder vs. Xuxu vs. Rebel Yell vs. Deader vs. Augistine Christian vs. Billy Gray vs. Jon Jones vs. Thomas Y. Hawke vs. Mantis vs. Lodi vs. Paco Fuego vs. Vinnie Pompei vs. Ape Boy vs. Oswald Jamison vs. Rampage vs. Billy Joe Blutnick vs. Bernard Waters vs. Jeremy Soule vs. Angel vs. Gabriel vs. Sigmund Chaltry vs. Nascar Driver vs. Al Malone vs. Joe Dewulf vs. El Negro Gato vs. Tyler Blaze vs. Blood vs. Breathe vs. Dark Star vs. Derrick Black vs. Maxwell Young vs. Studd Harmfull vs. Ax Malone vs. Spector vs. Thunder vs. Carson White vs. Lily vs. Mr. O'Lantern vs. Prometheus vs. Prophecy vs. Bubs Malone vs. The Mask vs. Stinger Slinger vs Blade vs. "13" vs. Interrogator vs. Buddy Booker



This is madness! Usually when one attempts a royal fest of this magnitude, they would use the royal rumble scenario instead of crowding 50 bulbous bodies inside the ring at once~! But no, not the TWF, for they shove all of these massive torsos into the arena at one setting and invite chaos! Plus, the cozyness of the fairgrounds arena with it's 1800 packed maniacs, makes the paranoia almost unbearable!

Within three minutes, referees Big Phil, Gentle Ben, Alfred and Blind Mike have determined several grapplers must exit. Mantis, Stinger Slinger, Joe Dewulf, Angel, Blood, Deader, Prometheus and Derrick Black are tossed out of the ring but it fell on the very forgettable Ape Boy to be the first man eliminated! We look to see individual action, maybe a trend or two but there is such a mass of bodies that it is nigh impossible to determine anything other than the occasional body being dumped from the ring!

Two more minutes and Nascar Driver, Al Malone, Breathe, Jeremy Soule, Maxwell Young, and Blade are gone! We finally see something going on and it the mysterious "13" slipping and sliding from one problem to another, always able to avoid much action. El Negro Gato and Mr. O'Lantern get tangled up near the corner and both men go out! Tex Mullins actually connects with a running forearm on the side of the head of Xuxu... it must be a first?

The crowd is loving this action.... it just seems right to be back at the fairgrounds and quickly, four men go tumbling to the floor at one time, interlocked with seeming agression that leads to ther demise! It's Thomas Y. Hawke, Lodi, Rebel Yell and Buddy Booker! Then. no sooner than this occurs, in what seemed to be a skillful alliance of their varius resources, Chaltry, White, Blutnick and Interrogator eliminate Lily, Bubs Malone, The Mask and Bernard Waters!

Half the field is surely gone and Gary Holmes and Robb Tracey appear and order everyone into one ring. In typical Tennessee tradition, Don Haney sends out CD Carroll and his lackeys to start tearing down ring two while the match continues in ring one! Jon Jones gets pole axed by Pompei and is gone and while he tries to step into ring one, Dread has a ring post from the ring being disassembled top over and hammer him in the head, eliminating him!

Now... running at break neck speed to ringside, it's Heartbreak Meyers! He leaps onto the apron and tosses Dale Sandusky an HBM t-shirt! Sandusky is excited, he puts the shirt on... watch him go! Sandusky must have been training with the legendary Austrailian? He charges Dark Star and topples him out of the ring! A flying dropkick eliminates Studd Harmfull... a clothesline from Hades decimates Eddie Fedder! Cross body block of Augistine Christopher and out he goes! The hurricanrana on Oswald Jamison..... uh oh! Jamison catches him and flips him backwards out of the ring!! Sandusky is eliminated!! He begins to shake, he may be hulking up... he looks at HBM who looks back..... Sweet Groin Music!! He has done it again! HBM leaves Sandusky laying in the floor as chants of HBM reverberate through the building!

While this is happening, we have no less than six men eliminated in rapid succesion! Xuxu, Billy Gray, Ax Malone, Spector, Billy Joe Blutnick and Gabriel! Wow, hips are being unsocketed... eyes are ripped out.... limbs are dangling and four more men just collapsed to the floor! Tex Mullins, Paco Fuego, Vinnie Pompei and Thunder are gone!

Glacier, Lethal Larry Ryan, Oswald Jamison, Rampage, Sigmund Chaltry, Tyler Blaze, Carson White, Prophecy, "13", and Interrogator are the last ten men inside the ring! Oh my! White just layed out Prophecy who is out of here! Jamison and Lethal Larry Ryan just cracked heads and both men take a dive, we are down to seven!


Quick cut to the the back..... Dan Mcknight is standing in the hallway where paramedics are busily working with someone? Audible moans are being heard and blood is everywhere! Dan quickly reports, "In a shocking turn of events, Jim Moloney and Chris Haney have just discovered the almost lifeless body of one TWF superstar here on the floor near a broom closet. Preliminary reports are sketchy but it appears to be the gay masked wrestler, 13! Back to you Red."

Did he say 13? But 13 is inside the ring, one the last seven grapplers left. What can this mean? Oh nelly... Carson White just got tossed by Chaltry.... Sigmund has to be the overwhelming favorite, we have six... make that five men left as Glacier is dumped by 13! Look out! Tyler Baze and Interrogator have just eliminated each other! And we have only three men left.... Down on the floor, CD Carroll and crew are about to break apart the ropes from ring number two... Chaltry gorilla presses Rampage and tosses him out, towards ring two! Rampage gets caught in the now unhitched ring ropes and is hung... my lord his neck just snapped! Rampage has broken his neck while being hung in those ropes!

Chaltry is beside himself... he is screaming for paramedics! Rampage's lifeless body dangles from the ropes.. 13 is going to the trunks! He has something... spins Chaltry around and connects! That was knucks... he hit him with knucks! Sigmund is hurled over the ropes and to the floor! 13 has just won the 50 man battle royal!

TWF security and medical personnel have rushed to the scene... Rampage is being slowly cut from the ropes while Chaltry is being administered to as well..... the fans are in shock, this being too much for the desires! Inside the ring, 13 is taking off the hood.... he had already destroyed one TWF superstar in the back and left Chaltry lying crumpled on the floor..... Whoa!!

It's Jack Bone! Jack Bone, the Master of the Game.... and what a game he has played today! What the $%#$ has Jack Bone done? We are out of time..... be back at our next big show, right here from the fairgrounds arena!


To be continued

Special Announcement: Rampage is dead!

The TWF Supercard is on the air and we see a replay from our last event... Chaltry gorilla presses Rampage and tosses him out, towards ring two! Rampage gets caught in the now unhitched ring ropes and is hung... my lord his neck just snapped! Rampage has broken his neck while being hung in those ropes! ............TWF security and medical personnel have rushed to the scene... Rampage is being slowly cut from the ropes while Chaltry is being administered to as well..... the fans are in shock, this being too much for the desires! Inside the ring, 13 is taking off the hood.... he had already destroyed one TWF superstar in the back and left Chaltry lying crumpled on the floor..... Whoa!!

In the back with TWF staff Don Haney is addressing his fellow TWF suits. "Fellows, these things happen. Fortunes are made, lives are lost. I'm sure that Rampage was a nice guy and all and we feel his loss."

Bill Gilman looks at Robb Tracy, "Feel his loss? The poor guy's dead for goodnes sakes!"

Haney continues, "But even though another man has met his maker here in the TWF and we seem to be cursed with bad luck in this regard, the show must go on."

Gilman scratches his head, "Bad luck? Missing the lottery by one number is bad luck. Getting your neck broke inside the ring is something else."

GW Perry speaks up, "Maybe we should honor the guy with the twenty one bell salute?"

Chris Haney disagrees, "Why? None of us knew him and from what I did know, no one liked him."

"That's right and plus, we only have an hour of time and we don't want to waste two minutes on Rampage. So... let's see, discount his publicity photos, no.. change that, double the price of them for tonight. Dead guys stuff sells better so let's milk this for extra profit.... let's get this show on the road," states the elder Haney.


Tennessee Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame Inductions:


Camera heads to the ring where Don Haney is standing in the ring with a plaque, hooded by a silk cover. "Friends, as many of you know, it has been well over a year since the last man was inducted into the TWF Hall of Fame. To win this honor means that you have gone beyond the call of duty while toiling for our organization. When deciding who is deserving of such accolades, we look at three basic criteria. First, the impact you made in our area. Second, the success that you had while toiling here and finally, the length of service and devotion you gave this federation. In addition, in making tonight's decision, I also considered the unselfishness that an individual made to the advancement of our fed, how they worked with others and how they would sometimes give up what was best for them for the overall good of what was best for everyone. This evening, we iduct three men into the TWF Hall of Fame, they have no idea who they are but each man is in the back so without further adieu, I present to you this year's first inductee into the TWF Hall of Fame..... The Master Of Extreme, MOX!

MOX as he is better known was a member of our federation on several occasions and each time he worked with us, he was always involved in some headlining feud or altercation. He has feuded with many of the biggest stars in our sport and is a former TWF World Champion. He will be performing later in the TWF Supercard.... welcome to the ring, the Master of Extreme... MOX!"

MOX enters the ring and his plaque is unveiled revealing his likeness. The crowd stands and offers tribute to the newest member of the TWF Hall of Fame.

G.W. Perry steps forward to make the next presentation. "Our next induction is a young man who I am happy to say made his mark while I was at the helm of the TWF. He began with Don Haney in 2001 but quickly rose to the top of the pecking order during 2002 and 2003 and basically became the hottest name in the sport during that time. He is now toiling in the DCW. He was a World Champion here in the TWF and held the title for a long period of time. I present to you, the newest member of the TWF Hall of Fame, the man who made the thumb popular... Dustin Iler!

Dustin Iler races to the ring as he crowd begins to chant, Iler! Iler! Iler! Dustin seems genuinely moved as he and Perry hug in the ring and his plaque is unveiled. Iler salutes the crowd who are standing and cheering... the newest member of the Hall of Fame, the "Thumb Opposer", Dustin Iler!


Chris Haney is next up..... "Our final inductee into the TWF Hall of Fame may come as a surprise. He was never a world champion, which seems to have been a prerequisite in the past? Matter of fact, his championship title runs were few and far between. But each time he arrived in the fed, his unparalleled work ethic would elevate him, almost immediately, to upper tier status. Don Haney would always move him into a main event angle where he would always deliver in spades. His unselfishness is legendary among we promoters. He would gladly, and I do mean gladly, drop a match to elevate a fellow TWF worker. He would, he could and he can stand toe to toe with any wrestler in the world. And it gives us great pleasure to induct a man who epitomizes unselfishness..... Undertow!

Undertow, the much respected veteran is coming slowly down the aisle, seems genuinely shocked at this announcement. He is getting a rousing ovation from the fans here at the fairgrounds, a packed house of almost 2200 individuals. Undertow enters the ring and looks at his TWF plaque, and is greeted by Iler and MOX.... as the crowd cheers all three men, the newest inductions into the TWF Hall of Fame!

Day Eight...... TWF cameras are in the parking lot of the Nashville Fairgrounds Arena. Fans are attempting to mob several TWF stars who are entering the arena through the back entrance. As the camera scans the crowd, fans display a various asortment of signs....

OUTKAST... Have My Baby!

Mike Haggar... slacks!

Where is Dave Dexter?

Dylan Jones.. Cold as Ice??

In the back.... Don Haney is meeting with GW Perry and Gary Holmes. "Gentlemen, we have a problem with Jade Diamond."

Perry looks at Hlomes, "A problem? What is it Don? Is he coming out of the closet?"

Haney responds with a firm voice, "That is the problem. I have a cease and decist order from Mr. Diamond. No more gay jokes, no more referances to homesexuality, no more fairy humor. He has made it clear that he does not wish to be portrayed in such an unflattering light."

Holmes laughs, "Well, didn't you start it?"

Haney sneers, "Maybe I did, maybe I didn't, but make sure it's stopped immediately. He has made it crystal clear how he feels about it and so be it.... mistakes were made, feelings were frayed and I can only try and make it right, take care of it, if you will?"

Haney walks away as Holmes and Perry scratch their heads?

--------------------------------------------------

Chicago Street Fight: 6-Man

Colt Steele, Armand & Steve Akers vs. Y2K, Fried Rebel & Steve Stanton


It's a six man brouha between a gaggle of TWF tough guys! This one goes all over the arena! The junior members of the Unholy Alliance taking on the one time tag champs! Akers and Y2K fight in the concessioin area... Armand and Rebel wind up in the balcony and Stanton and Steele are in row three of the crowd! Extra referees are about as they try to keep the crazed TWF fans from intervening!

Armand shoves Rebel who falls from the balcony and completely through a pizza wagon on the floor! Stanton swipes a digital camera from a fan and cracks it over Colt's noggin! Y2K shoves Akers into concession stand and over the condiment table!

This one gets rough and ready and is about to dissentegrate into a pier one brawl when the entire Unholy Alliance rushes from the locker area! Dr. Midnight and Ric Justus attack Armand as he exits the balcony area.. Lobo and Odin tackle Steele while Stanton asists Fried Rebel to his feet and they maul Akers! The six on one attack is vintage Unholy Alliance as they simply demolish their opponents. How could the TWF tolerate this vicious behavior over the years? Is the allure of the almighty dollar so important as to simply toss out any thoughts of decent sportsmanship?

And what makes it worse is the apparent infatuation that the TWF fans have for this band of hooligans! Call me naive but I believe such violence should be banned, not encouraged! The Alliance leaves the victims lying helpless, beaten, battered and brusied as they enter the ring to the addoration of the assembled mass. Unbelievable, simply unbelievable!


Sigmund Chaltry is talking with TWF psychologist, Dr. Veena Anand....

"You must leet your eener feeling outside. You can't defeet them. What has happened to thees man, thees Rampage... it ees not your fault. Theese accedents weel happen. And assure yourself, as I am doing now, it was an acceedent!"

Chaltry nods his head and says he understands.......

"HEY KILLER!"

Chaltry looks up and there stands Jack Bone!

"Someone should put you in jail, you aren't fit to live... if I had done what you did, taking another man's life, I think I would off myself?"

Chaltry begins to convulse, quickly standing as the doctor tries to control him....

"Stay back kid, I want go lightly on a murderer!"

Chaltry collapses in the floor as Dr. Anand screams for assistance... Bone looks at him and laughs, "Welcome to the game kid."

More backroom action Panther is talking with Dylan Jones when Darrell Anderson walks in...

"Iceman, please let me explain?"

Jones stands up... "Listen Darrell, just let it go right now. I am under a lot of stress, coming back to the place where my brother was killed, back to the place where I began, where I excelled... seeing things familiar and some not. I need some time to straighten things out."

As Jones leaves and Anderson follows him into the hallway... Panther smiles and shakes his head... "Always trying to be the TWF peacemaker. Well, that's what friends are for." He picks up his gym bag and opens the door and is greeted by a branding iron to the forehead! Panther crumples down as Jones and Anderson hear the commotion and race back... Barry Savage grins and waves at the two men as he and the TXO walk away... Big Barry sharing these words, "Man, it must suck to be a hero?"


First Blood Match:

Adam Young vs. Chris Crossward vs. Captain Muscles

The seemingly never ending specialty matches continue as we get the dreaded first blood affair involving Texas' own Adam Young, the enigmatic Chris Crossward and the zany Captain Muscles! This match is just what it says, the first two men to be bloodied are eliminated and the man who stands without the crimson mask will be declared the winner.

Each of the men, knowing the rules, attacks with reckless abandon! Muscles tries to gorilla slam Young but is clawed by Crossward! The three start pummeling each other about the eyes, the forehead and the nose, hoping to draw blood!

This continues for about three minutes when Young pulls out a truly secret weapon! Knowing a few weeks in advance what this match would be, Young's fingernails have grown to enormous lengths and he uses them to scratch Crossward about the face and jaw... the slashing attack leaves rips in the flesh of Crossward... the match is suspended for a moment as referee Mike Hinson checks the cunning one. He calls for the bell and declares that the scratching of Young has opened a bloody wound on the face of CCC and he is eliminated! Crossward can not believe it and kicks Young in the sack as he leaves the ring!

With Young lying in a heap, Captain Muscles begins to flex, morphing into his Venice Beach personna.. the crowd is on fire! The Captain bends. The Captain hulks... The Captain grabs Young! He goes for the press slam but something happens!

A gory ripping sound is audible for the first four rows as a shoulder comes out of socket! Captain Muscles has ripped a socket! The skin peels open and blood flows from his armpit! Referee Hinson is obviously sickened at this sight and holds back a vomiting episode as he calls for the bell... Al Young has won it! By virtue of a bad manicure and a weak socket, the other two men have bled.... and it's Adam Young who is declared the victor!

To be continued.....

Show begins with Chris Haney and Brian Black walking.....

"Hey Black, the old man wants to know if you got that thing ready... the dead men return to the ring project?"

"Oh yeah, tell him that my new company has everything lined up. We are ready to proceed!"

The two men walk off as the camera switches to......


In the back..... Mack Tharp, Bam Bam Bell and Don Haney are talking.... Haney speaks with a distant look, "Yeah, Yeah Mack... whatever! I really have more pressing things on my mind right now than your request. Take this contract to Ben Pace and tell him you're working the next match... as a referee."

Haney walks off as Mack and Bam Bam clasp hands!

--------------------------------------------------

Loser leaves Tennessee! Special referee: Mack Tharp

Venom vs. "The Enforcer" Brent Kersh vs. Brian Allen

Let's do a quick recap of our contestants... Venom, an Alabama boy who a run of good luck during the TCW days in 1999... Brent Kersh, another successful TCW grappler and then with CWA Texas in 2000 and finally, Brian Allen, he of probably the most improbable of upsets, defeating 60 plus other individuals and then the legendary Jackylfan in 2000 to win the Unified World Title.

Mack Tharp struts his authority and is laying down the law in this one where the first man defeated leaves town for a period of one full year. He is verbally brow beating all three men and asserting his immense physical prensence when the bell rings inadvertently and the contest begins with Mack being bulled over by Venom. Allen and Kersh square off and trade touches... then blows! Venom involves himself in the fray and we get full three way action... Now Mike Hinson appears at ringside and is joined by TWF senior official Ben Pace. There seems to be some question of authority?

Venom is down! Kersh is dazed after a violent mid ring collision... Now, Mack Tharp is signalling towards the back and here comes Bam Bam Bell, jet black pompoudour and all! Bam Bam mounts the corner ring posts and is set to fly... Mack points towards Venom.... Bell flies off the corner post.. Allen spins Mack into the line of fire and Bell cross bodies his "associate!" Mack is knocked silly, the force of the 290 pounder dulling his senses! Bell is beside himself and sees Mack prone, Bell runs off! Bam Bam flees! Brian Allen drops an elbow across the referee and covers... Blind Mike Hinson from outside and a count of 1--2--3! Can this be?

Senior official Ben Pace grabs the mic.... "According to this contract that you signed just moments ago Mr. Tharp, you were employed as a fourth member of this group and as such, are subject to the rules of the match which means... Mack Tharo, say goodbye to Tennessee!"

Kersh sneaks in behind Allen and rolls him up... 1--2--! It's the Enforcer! The Enforcer Brent Kersh has just won this match, No,..the ref is saying no! Kersh can't believe it.. Venom is up and nails him in the back.. Allen is up.. he schoolboys Venom... 1--2--3! Yes! Yes.. amidst all the confusion, he outsmarts everyone and gets the duke! The former TWF favorite, the former World Champ, has come back to Tennessee and in the words of Kathy Mattea, he is walking away a winner!

In the parking lot... Bam Bam Bell is seen getting inside a Ford Taurus and squeals out of the parking lot! The camera zooms in on the license plate which reads.. "IMMACK"..... as he flies away, Mack Tharp rushes outside to see his friend, his partner, leaving him high and dry. "BAMS! BAMS! Come back Bams!!"

--------------------------------------------------

Don Haney and Brian Black enter the ring and both have microphones

Haneynspeaks first, "Ladies and Gentlemen, the TWF has always been ahead of it’s time in setting trends for the wrestling business. Now, we will set another thanks to BlackCo and it’s CEO, Brian Black."

Black addresses the crowd... "Thank you. Ladies and Gentlemen, in a few days…live from the GEC…you will see something amazing! You will get to see the dead rise…and WRESTLE!" The man who almost killed the TWF in the late 90's grins and let's it sink in. "Yes, you heard me correctly. My company, in cooperation with the TWF, will present the newest in AI technology. On the screen above you, you will watch all-time greats like Jacob Goldstein, Wrestler X, Peterbilt, my brother Sterling Silver, and, yes, even Dante Jones wrestle!!!!!

Lance Russell is in the studio and comments, "I can’t believe he would DARE say Dante Jones’ name…he was the man that killed Dante!"

Black continues, "By your reaction, I can tell you are at least intrigued. Well, join us in a few days and see a technological miracle!" Haney and Black leave the ring and the crowd sits stunned!

--------------------------------------------------

Backstage with The Wreenkles, Tom Ripetto & Chris Haney:

Discussion of family history:

Hello, this is Tom Ripetto and tonight, as part of this incredible continuing event, Dickie Wreenkle, Racky Wreenkle and many others will come clean about who is, and who isn't a part of the somewhat famous Wreenkle family. Dick, this has been a source of confusion for many a moon. Let's get started.

Dickie: Where would you like to start, maybe the start?

Racky: Try the end and work backwards?

Dickie: Silence junior! Let's go.... well Tom, tis true that many of today's stars are related to yours sincerely. And accusations of nepotism are something my family has dealt with for years and why? Look at Tennessee in the 1950's... owned by Herb and Roy Welch who tried to screw poor Nick Gulas out of the territory whiel he as serving in the army. But besides that, who were their big stars? Oh how about Lee, Bobby and Donnie Fields, their nephews.. who then just happened to buy out the gulf coast area and who were their biggest stars? Oh let's see, Robert and Ron Fuller and Jimmy Golden.. who were also their nephews and sons of Georgia owner Buddy Fuller who was also a son in law of the Welches. Small world isn't it?

Racky: So we are surrounded by cheats and scoundrels, what else is new?

Dickie: What's new is that we happened to be a part of that group over the past many years. It's true that Don Haney is my half brother, same momma, different daddy and it's true that Racky is my kid, dang it!

Racky: I didn't get your nose.. thank goodness!

Dickie: So that's the obvious but here's the rest of the scoop. Herb and Phil Wreenkle are my nephews, sons of my sister Edith who never married but had many a kid. Fritz Schmidt is actually a cousin, son of uncle Melvin Wreenkle... Karl Schmidt is Fritz's brother and another cousin...the boys real names are Buell and Ewell Wreenkle. Hans Schmidt is not their brother but is my grandson, his daddy is Douglas Fairbanks Wreenkle who is in the state pen in Alabama, sent there on some trumped up charges about some sheep near the Tennessee state line. Hans is really Dennis Wreenkle and surprisingly is only 22 years old. He began wrestling at 16. He is not gay but does enjoy wearing leather thongs!

Dennis, I mean Hans, has two brothers who are wrestling professionally... One is Boudreaux Wreenkle aka Buddy Booker, a jobber dude who is still pretty raw and the other is Ramses Wreenkle aka Randy Hitler. Then there is Gideon Trait and Oscar and this is where the lies begin. Gideon Trait is not now, nor has he ever been a Wreenkle! He is some boomerang salesman from New Zealand who tried to make hay out of claiming to be a Wreenkle when he came in here 5 or 6 years ago! I resent his assertion of being a Wreenkle!

His partner Oscar, the darker of the two... he's most likely mine but I haven't been forced to a DNA test.

Dr. Midnight is a cousin... as is Ric Justus... Barry Savage.... Elegant Emerson Phillips.... Harry Nutt.... Rich Tapestry.... Badgerman.... Beld Painkiller... I could go on and on but revelaing more might actually elad some to believe that there is some favortism going on?

Racky: And Don Haney is cheap!

Dickie: Yes... he sure is. By the way, he has a son wrestling as well..... have you heard of him? Merlin Moloney?

The scene ends with Tom's eyebrows raised and all the Wreenkle kinfolk gathered around the buffet table where possum sardines are there for everyone!


To be continued... Up Next

Submission Match:

"Primetime" Ryan Johnson vs. The Chameleon vs. Aaron Christopher

Presidential Address: Abraham Lincoln

Stacker 3 Battle Royal: Winner gets a one year endorsement deal with Stacker 3.. "The World's Strongest Fat Burner!"

Participants: Vito -- Damian Satanis -- Wolverine -- Zed -- Steve Xodiak -- Andre Reese --Alex Brown -- Jeremy Riley -- JD Lawson -- Ricky Showers -- Jason Bagwell -- Triple X -- Matt Foster -- Arnold I. Dunn -- Disco Stu -- Steve Stanton -- Prodigy -- Viking Fury

--------------------------------------------------

In the back with former TWF honcho Jim Moloney...

Moloney is seen talking to the two men who he hopes will give him the aces up in this incredible event, Big Red Scare and Gravestone.... "Guys, I think I have Don talked into giving you a premium spot in the card. It is looking very promising!"

With the physically imposing Gravestone standing beside him, BRS shocks Moloney with these words... "Jimbo old boy, back in 1999, you had stroke, now, let's face it.. you are struggling. You have here in front of you, no doubt, the greatest talents that the game ever produced and you "think" you have us a top tier spot? Things are looking "promising?" Guy, we didn't come back here for maybes so.... well, we are headed in another direction and decided to bring somebody with us who will most assuredly get us what we want.

Moloney is shocked! "Who? Who could do for you what I can? Just give me time..... I"

Gravestone motions for Moloney to stop.... "It's too late Jimmy, we've made up our minds!"

BRS and Gravestone turn and leave the room where standing in the hallway is their new manager of affairs... Hamid Ismaili!! The founder of the FWF is back in Tennessee!

Submission Match:

"Primetime" Ryan Johnson vs. The Chameleon vs. Aaron Christopher

As the headline implies, this match will end when one of the competitors actually submits to another, no more, no less. The participants range from the long past to the past to the relatively current with Ryan Johnson, an arrogant competitor from the 1999 era to Chameleon, a strange gent circa 2002 to Aaron Christopher who grappled with the TWF until it's closing in 2004. Referee Big Phil Phillips, all 357 pounds of him, will be on hand to administer the ultimate decision.

As normally happens in these multi-way battles, the three men trade off, back and forth, in determining who has the current advantage. And has long been the TWF tradition, there is never enough security around to prevent some type of screwjob ending! At the six minute mark, the Chameleon is thrown over the top rope and to the floor. As A.C. and Johnson go at it in the ring, Max Steele appears from thin air and cracks a steel chair over the head of the Chameleon! He goes down hard and Steele struts proudly at ringside!

But then, for the second time in this event, two old veterans show up to assert their dominance over the DOC... Dickie Wreenkle & Dan Sweeny, the self proclaimed WWC World Tag Team Champions, rush the area and attack Steele! Max tries to fight them off but cannot overcome the two on one advantage! Wreenkle and Sweeny leave him out of action and then turn their attention towards the ring where Christopher is about to set Johnson up for his finisher!

Dickie leaps up on the ring and distracts the ref while Sweeny attacks from the far side and fires a fist full of chilli powder into the eyes of Christopher! The man it totally blinded and walks right into crossface from Johnson and the pain from the hold and the burning of tghe powder is too much.... he submits! "Primetime" Ryan Johnson has just won this match!

Sweeny and Wreenkle grab a mic and the jew speaks.... "Hey boys! This is twice we kicked your fannies! When you get ready to step up to the big leagues, give us a call?" Dan and Dick walk off through the crowd flashing the golden belts that were won long ago and defended..... well, never!

-------------------------------------------------

Outside the arena..... The TWF has a publicity booth set up with a handfull of fans milling about to meet former federation stars NBK, Pain & Pimp Daddy. Cobra Coyle, Aaron Blaze and Ryan Windsor. Just across the parking lot, we see another large pavillion with a banner in bold letters... BTW, the real Big Time! A larger group of fans are there, posing for photos with Jimmy Jailbird, Badgerman, Matt Moon, Marcus T, Beld Painkiller and Jack Bone.

Yet another pavillion is on another part of the lot where an even larger crowd has gathered. The artistically produced banner reads... Stohler Enterprises! Destructo, the TWF Hall of Famer and current president of DCW is holding court with several of his longtime allies... Father Wolf, Zilch, Matt Foster, Pete Sake, Dominic Moore, Fujitaka, Tojo Saito, Douglas Potter along with Dustin Iler and Panther... It sure appears that the roster is loaded for today's activities!

------------------------------------------------

Presidential Address: Abraham Lincoln

Gary Holmes and Robb Tracy lead Abraham Lincoln to the ring where Mr. Lincoln is about to deliver an address of "presidential" appropriateness.


"TWF fans, isn't this great? Isn't what these promoters and owners put together a fabulous success?"

The maniacal TWF fans are standing, as one, roaring their approval.

"It has fell upon my shoulders... I have been given the great honor of announcing just what the triple main event will be composed of. Oh it is still aways off as we have just passed the halfway mark of this fantastic event but since so many of you have clammored for the information, I have been instructed by Don Haney to offer up these "presidential" words of glad tidings and disclose the mysteries of our final few nights of the TWF Supercard!"

As Abe Lincoln unfolds a schedule, a man bursts into the ring brandishing a derringer! He pushes past Don Haney and levels the gun at the back of Lincoln's skull and then fires.... BANG! One single shot rings through the building as Superstar Shawn Mallis drops the weapon and runs away, fighting past TWF security to flee the scene. Don Haney drops down over Abe Lincoln as mass chaos ensues! Shouts of "The President's down" and "Lincoln's been shot!" ring out! Fans are in a panic and pressing to escape! Security and paramedics rush the ring!

Burly men in black suits pick Lincoln up in a makeshift cot and race up the ramp and out the entrance way...Referee Ben Pace reaches down and retrieves the weapon, examining it closely and then points it at himself and pulls the trigger.... BANG! The crowd is screaming as Pace laughs and still stands.... "It's a starter's pistol! It shoots blanks!" he calls out to the crowd!

In the back where Abe Lincoln is fighting to get off the cot... "Let me go you brutes, I'm fine!" Don haney rushes up.. "are you okay Abe?"

Right down the hallways, Superstar Shawn Mallis is seen laughing... "You guys are so gullible! HAAAA!"

To be continued...

Outside the arean....

A car flies into the parking lot and out comes four men, the newest members of the TWF Hall of Fame, Undertow and MOX, along with the famous author Jackson Crowe and the hardcore legend, Beld Painkiller. As the four men approach the arena, TWF reporter Tom Ripetto approaches and questions Undertow... "Gentlemen, I have tonight's agenda and I don't see your names anywhere?"

The four look at each other and Undertow replies... "Seems like there has been some confusion about who the true hardcore legend is here in Tennessee. OutKast, you have been able to pull the wool over the eyes of many.. but not us. This man right here.. patting Beld on the shoulder.. has never backed down from any hardcore challenge... have you?"

MOX brushes Ripetto aside and the four men walk in.

------------------------------------------------

Inside the arena....

Sigmund Chaltry is standing in the hallway with his former tag team partner Vito when he hears a familiar voice from down the hallway... The two men peer down the way... Chaltry calls out, "Crystal! Is that you?" An obvious referance to his former fiancee, Crystal Haney.

Crystal walks around the corner and into plain sight... "Hi Sigmund" She turns around and calls to someone else, "Come on, daddy wants to see you in his office." And into the picture... Jack Bone!

"Hey Ziggy.. I mean.... siggy! HAAAA Welcome to the game son!"

Crystal and Jack Bone walk past Chaltry who is held back by Vito....

Stacker 3 Battle Royal: Winner gets a one year endorsement deal with Stacker 3.. "The World's Strongest Fat Burner!"

Participants: Vito -- Damian Satanis -- Wolverine -- Zed -- Steve Xodiak -- Andre Reese --Alex Brown -- Jeremy Riley -- JD Lawson -- Ricky Showers -- Jason Bagwell -- Triple X -- Matt Foster -- Arnold I. Dunn -- Disco Stu -- Steve Stanton -- Prodigy -- Viking Fury

Indeed! It's an opportunity of a lifetime for one lucky TWF participant tonight as they will be able to follow in the footsteps of the Big Show and NASCAR's Kenny Wallace as an official spokesperson for Stacker 2! Eighteen men will battle in this singel ring battle royal to attempt to garner the fame and fortune that will be associated with a victory!

It is 100% chaos as this one begins... Jason Bagwell and Disco Stu club Arnold I Dunn into submission and then toss him to the concrete below! JD Lawson and Vito do the doubleteam on Wolverine and out he goes! Zed and Matt Foster team up to put the lights out on Andre Reese and the big man is a goner!

In quick succession, Steve Xodiak, Prodigy and Triple X are sent packing... a full one thrid of the field eliminated in just three minutes! Damian Satanis and Alex Brown crack noggins and get tossed by Jeremy Riley and Steve Stanton! Two more me ousted and just ten remaining in the field! Ricky Showers charges Bagwell but gets flipped for his efforts. The longtime veteran, making a rare return to the business is given a not so pleasant goodbye!

Jeremy Riley and Disco Stu, both former members of CWA Canada begin slugging it out! Their violence goes unchecked as they take each other to the floor and fight all the way to the entrance way! Referee Al Barnes calls for their elimination.. both men gone! Just seven men remain! Whoa.. make that five! Viking Fury and Jason Bagwell have both just been dumped to the floor ... that's got to be two of the favorites to win this thing now out of the competition!

We can now see some things developing inside the ring... Zed and Foster, part of the Destructo faction are teaming up... Vito and JD Lawson are squaring off.... and Steve Stanton, well... he's leaning through the ropes, who's that at ringside? That's Fried Rebel and Dr. Midnight! Where did they come from? More Unholy Alliance chicanery perhaps? Wait!! On the other side of the ring... Jack Bone is there! Vito, elder partner of young Sigmund Chaltry is about to take on Bone!

Dr. Midnight just passed Stanton something... could it be an enema bag? Stanton is trying to decide.. use it or not? He is arguing with Midnight! Jack Bone just reached over the ropes and has pulled Vito to the floor! Vito has been eliminated by that $#@# Jack Bone who has set his sights on ruining Sigmund Chaltry!

Stanton and Midnight are jawing... JD Lawson from behind! He nails Stanton! Steve Stanton is out of here! And now... someone in the front row just tossed a chain into the ring, taken by Matt Foster... the lawyer with a chain! He nails Lawson! Zed salutes and rolls out of the ring... Matt Foster has won the battle royal! Matt Foster? Matt Foster! The lawyer for the Destructoi/ Crimson Black cartel has shocked this entire field and has walked away the winner. Now Zed is shaking hands with the man in the crowd... Father Wolf! How many of these *%@* Stohler-ites are in this building anyway?

On the other side of the ring, Jack Bone has escaped through the crowd as Vito is joined by Sigmund Chaltry at ringside while on this side.. Dr. Midnight just layed out Steve Stanton with that enema bag, apparently feeling that one of the original 1998 members of the UA has slighted the group... what a match .. I hope you had your scorecard at home?


In the back.....

Don Haney watches the ending of the battle royal on a monitor and motions for his son Chris to come over... "Listen, we defintely have some serious problems arising with those FWF maniacs. Gravestone has never forgiven us for jobbing him out to that Slurpee guy and BRS, well.... you know?"

Chris nods... "Ego trip personified!"

Don Haney scratches his head... "I need two of the best available... we can't be unprepared. Are Dexter and Haggar in the back?" Chris nods his head in the affirmative.. "Well fill them in, I don't want them getting any suddden surprises."

Special Attraction: TWF Deceased Wrestlers Battle Royal: Sterling Silver, Jacob Goldstein, Wrestler X, Homicidal Hamid, Elmer Adonis, Gomer Mathis, Diamond Dogg, and Peterbilt


Special treat: Live play by play from Lance Russell and Red Simmons....

Russell: Well, look at the screen high above the fairgrounds arena. I got to say, Black’s program looks as real as anything I’ve ever seen!

Simmons: Amazing!

Russell: Well, we’re getting to see the wrestlers going to the computer generated ring!

Peterbilt enters first. Looking as he did before he died.....Gomer Mathis and Elmer Adonis both come down together. Diamond Dogg enters the “arena” just as he did when he was alive. Wrestler X, in a bit of a blotch, is already in the ring. Jacob Goldstein appears on the screen and the real TWF crowd cheers.....Sterling Silver appears on the screen next and for a moment his face looks “distorted,” but goes back to “normal.” Homicidal Hamid comes through the “curtain” escorted by 70 virgins. The programmer must thought Hamid died fighting for Allah.....and finally, the Inferno Dante Jones is the last to enter. The crowd goes nuts! However, so does Dylan Jones. Who comes out from the REAL curtain and makes a B-line for Brian Black!

Dylan: How dare you? You dare use my brother’s image to make money for yourself.

Black: I also put my own brother in the program. It’s out of respect. Just watch the screen, Dylan!

The match on screen begins and all the wrestlers seem to do what the real versions of them would be doing if alive. Elmer and Gomer go over the top first. Hamid is next, being eliminated by Dante. Diamond Dogg and Peterbilt eliminate one another. This leaves Goldstein, Wrestler X, Sterling Silver, and Dante Jones. Goldstein and Silver eliminate Wrestler X. Dante comes up from behind Silver and tosses him out before Wrestler X hits the floor. Silver is irate! This leaves Goldstein and Jones. However, Silver grabs a chair and crashes it over Dante’s head. The seen on the screen is almost exactly the same as how Dante was killed. The program suddenly glitches and We see Goldstein’s arm raised as Dante is carried off.)

Dylan: You Son of a…

Black: Listen…I had no idea the program would…

Dylan: I’m sick of you, Black. The only reason you have a name at all in this business is because of what you did to Dante. AS Dante would say…it’s time for you to feel the burn...Dylan grabs Black and locks on Dante’s Inferno. It’s not long before Black…well…blacks out. The crowd chants “Dante” over and over again. As Brian Black is now carted out on a stretcher.

To be continued..... In the back with Darrell Anderson, Panther and Brian Black.....

Former TWF owner Black is talking with the two fan favorites... "I feel terrible about that deal with Dylan. Sure he snapped, I would have probably done the same. But guys, I am sincere when I say I want to make it right. Panther, if you could speak with him... and Darrell, if you would go with me tonight, I think I can make this all right?"

Panther and Anderson pat Black on the shoulder and tell him no problem.... they will help him finally straighten it all out... later this evening.

Timex $100,000 Tag Team Elimination Match:

The Seminoles vs. The Jurassic Powers vs. The Skank Mob vs. The Young Pistolz vs. The DOC vs. Lou Ferrigno & Leper vs. Death by Stereo (Tojo & Dread)vs. Ominous Alliance (Kareem and Gary Godz)


As the match is about to begin....

Dickie Wreenkle and Dan Sweeny appear on the ramp with their two WWC World Tag title belts strapped on. Dickie is in plaid polyesters while Sweeny is more modernly adorned. Sweeny grabs the stick.... "Hey guys! All of you!" The ring full of fabulous TWF tag teams turn their attention to the Jewish superstar. "Since me and the Dick aren't deemed worth of inclusion in any of these events, we got a proposal to the winner of this match.... After it's over, if you got the stomach for it... your $100,000 for our WWC World Tag Titles, winner takes all, sometime during the supercard! That's if any of you ain't to yellowto take the challenge?"

Sweeny drops the mic and Dickie takes a drag off his Kool filter king as the two howl loudly and vanish as quickly as they first appeared!


So the challenge has been tossed out by Sweeny and Wreenkle offering their titles which they have held for many years against the grand prize of cash money that will taken down by tonight's winning team... we will surely see if anyone steps up and accepts it? As for the Timex $100,000 challenge, it's a tag team battle royal which means if one man is eliminated, then both members are gone!

The match begins with a quick rush by the Skank Mob and the DOC who charge the Young Pistolz and eliminate both members in less than a minute! The two teams then turn their attention to each other.... while this occurs, Ferrigno and Leper are being ganged by everyone else! Maybe they think that these two men must be quickly eliminated? But these types of alliances are usually short lived as the Jurassic Powers learn when Godz and Kareem sneak attack from behind and toss these two men over and out!

With six teams remaining, Leper and Lou fight their way out of trouble and catch Kareem in a notorious double chinlock of torture! As they stand him up into a statue of rigor, he is dropkicked by Tojo and eliminated.. that's it for the Ominous Alliance! Seminole #1, a part of the original TWF roster clotheslines Tojo from behind and send's him packing which means adios Death by Stereo and leaves us with but four teams!

Pandemonium errupts when the other Seminole tries to bull rush Aaron Christopher and nails his own partner and then walks into a Gedeon Trait suplex of fantasia! He is gone... the Seminoles are eliminated! And we have but three teams... Oscar clubs Max Steele! Aaron Christopher pounds Leper! Lou Ferrigno mauls Gideon Trait! What is next? And then... Leper runs into the boot of Oscar and flies from the ring! Lou must follow as we are down to the final two teams.... Max Steele charges Trait who ducks... and lifts the big msan straight up... and over the top rope! The DOC is out... gone.. and it's the Skank Mob who have emerged victorious! Gideon Trait and Oscar have just won $100,000 from Timex! Gideon has the stick.... "WHEW! YES! All of the years of playing second fiddle in the TWF and who's got the loot? And Sweeny... Wreenkle... you want a shot at this $100,000?" The crowd is in a frenzy.... Sweeny and Wreenkle reappear on the ramp.. ""You thought it was gonna be the DOC didn't you boys? You thought it would be them and never dreamed it would be us? Well, you want our $100,000? You can wish in one hand and piss in the other fellows! We could care less about your tin belts that you never defended! I wouldn't trade $100 for those jokes, much less $100,000... maybe you can the DOC to risk their free Pizza Hut vouchers but as for us.... HAAAA!"

The Skank Mob leave the ring to a great response as Wreenkle and Sweeny looked stunned... and then the DOC try and chase them up the ramp and out of the eyes of the TWF fans... what a turn of events!


In the back.....

Bill Gilman is sitting with a drunken Johnny Carteris when Paul Leonard walks in..... "Look at him Bill.. look at the guy! Here we are.. almost into the main event times of this supercard and what has he gotten us? You can't keep him sober long enough for us to get a decent spot in the show!"

Gilman tries to calm Leonard down...

"I don't want to hear it! Carteris may have been a world champ at one time and you may have made a lot of money with his career, gained a lot of stroke, found some fame and fortune.... but those days are over! Next time we meet, it's gonna be in the ring and afterwards, you can decide just whose career is the brightest?"

Leonard slams the door on Gilman and Carteris as Johnny slurs something about a '78 Monte Carlo?


In another section of the arena....

Panther is walking down the hallway when he spots Barry Savage and JJ Pierce... Panther immediately grabs a chair and mutters "come on you son of a... " WHACK! This time, from behind... it's the Heartbreaker Ric Justus! He has just lambasted Panther with a club and left him lying... As his longtime ally Dr. Midnight roars with laughter, Justus utters those infamous words... "Watch your back boy!"


------------------------------------------------

In the ring.. Brian Black & Darrell Anderson announce a scholarship program in the memory of Dante Jones:

The TWF cameras come to the ring where former TWF owner/promoter Brian Black is standing alongside TWF Hall of Famer Darrell Anderson. Black addresses the crowd... "Ladies and gentlemen, tonight, I stand before you a humble man. A man who regrets the path I once embarked upon. A man who is sorry for years past and the role I had in many horrible things, the biggest which was the inadvertant and accidental death of a fine young man.. Dante Jones. I have spent many sleepless nights sorrowful for this tragedy, just as much as losing my own broither in this business. I know the pain the Jones family must have felt over the many years. Darrell Anderson is nodding..offering encouragement as Black breaks up.....

I can never bring back Dante or reverse what happened that fateful night but I would like to ask his brother to come out to the ring at this time.. for The Iceman, Dylan Jones to come down here for this special occasion." The crowd falls hush as Dylan slowly, steadily walks to the ring and enters. Darrell Anderson greets him and seems to be playing goodwill ambassador for this night.

Black continues... "Dylan, I have told you many times how sorry I am. A few nights ago, I erred again with the airing of our virtual tribute to the deceased wrestlers. I know you must have been livid but I assure you I had no idea of what was going to happen. This evening, I want to show you how deeply sorry I am. I have this plaque... Anderson hands the plaque to Jones... "On the plaque you will see the inscription which reads.. In memory of Dante Jones, a great champion, a true inspiration, a legend. In his honor, a scholarship has been funded to the University of Iowa Wrestling Team which will allow a full scholarship for one desrving high school athlete to attend this great institution for a full four years. Fully funded by Black Enterprises.

Dylan stares at the plaque..... and then hammers Black square in the face with the marble slab! Darrell Anderson tries to intervene and Jones swings and connects! My Lord... NO!! Dylan Jones has gone off! He lays the plaque flat on the apron and piledrives Anderson headfirst into the marble!! Darrell Anderson is out! Tell me this isn't happening!

Jones begins to stomp Black in the face and head, stomping viciously... grinding his boot into the man's scalp and skull... this is awful! Here comes Panther, his head bleeding and wrapped in gauze.. followed by OutKast... and Sigmund Chaltry.... and Vito...

Dylan sees the fan favorites hit the ring and slips to the floor, leaving the plaque inside the ring along with Anderson and a convulsing Brian Black! Don Haney and several of the TWF officials are rushing to the ring.. Haney looks at Jones with a look of disgust... maybe anger... friends, fans... I never ever thought I would have seen this happen.... never!!
