MEMORIAL AUDITORIUM
SEGMENT 1: INTRODUCTION:
As the graphic on the screen -- reading Allison Kelly – 3/23/83-10/23/04 --
fades, slow, pensive piano music begins and a montage of slow-motion clips, highlighting
her PWA career. As the package rolls, a
voice-over ensues.
Narrator:
On Saturday night, the PWA family lost one of its own when Allison Kelly
passed away after an eight-month battle with cancer. Through her year-long PWA career, Allison
reached accolades that many superstars will not reach in an entire career. Allison was the first-ever three-time Women’s
Champion, a record that has still not been surpassed. Beyond the ring, Allison was loved by all who
came in contact with her -- even those that merely heard about her. No one ever said a bad word about her, and no
one could have either; she was as close to the perfect person as there has ever
been. Sweet, caring, funny, loving, and
kind, Allison Kelly was a valued addition to the PWA family, and will always
remain as such. When diagnosed with a
rare form of cancer back in February, Allison took a leave of absence from the
PWA that we all hoped and prayed would be only temporary. Unfortunately, it was not to be. Allison Kelly will be missed terribly by the
entire PWA family and everyone that has ever come into contact with her. However, Allison will live on in all our
hearts and minds forever.
As the package slowly fades to black, we are taken inside the Memorial
Auditorium in
Palmer:
Ladies and gentlemen, will you all please rise as we pay tribute to the
one and only Allison Kelly.
Everyone in the arena is silent as the ring bell is slowly tolled ten times. With tears welling in the eyes of the
superstars and fans, cheers break out as the tribute is complete, and we then
cut away to our opening montage.
From there,
SEGMENT 2: MATCH
1: LAUREN TANTALUS VS. LIZ RUSH:
Referee:
Dan Martin
Ferrara: Yeah Troy, it’s such a surreal
event, and something that has been a real blow to this entire PWA community and
everyone that’s ever known her. My best
goes out to her family during this extremely difficult time.
Ferrara: This has got to be an emotional
time for Lauren, who was the last person to face Allison Kelly on television,
back on January 25 on Overdrive.
Troy: Yeah, the two of them had a
classic war for the Women’s Championship, and I know there was nothing but the
utmost respect between them.
As Lauren settles in the ring, “Thick Skin” by Joydrop
hits and Liz Rush makes her way to the ring to a sizeable ovation. Liz and Lauren stand face to face in the ring
as the bell sounds.
Ferrara:
Alright, Lauren will be challenging Camieko for the Women’s Championship
in a two-out-of-three falls match this Saturday at Hellbent, so this should be a good tune-up opportunity for
her.
Liz and Lauren lock up in the center of the ring, and it is Lauren who establishes
the early advantage, taking Liz down to the mat. Lauren looks to sink in a leg grapevine, but
Liz quickly makes it over to the ropes.
Lauren then stalks in on Liz, looking to do further damage, but Liz
fends her off with several well-placed kicks.
With Lauren backing up, Liz rushes in and clotheslines Lauren to the
mat! Lauren then gets up, but Liz
dropkicks her right back down! Lauren
then takes a breather, heading outside the ring.
Lauren heads back into the ring, and Liz looks to continue the advantage,
but Lauren is able to fight back and pull herself back into the fray. However, as quickly as Lauren regains the
advantage, she loses it again, and Liz downs Lauren with a huge
hurricanrana! With the fans cheering,
Liz signals for the cobra clutch bomb, hoping to finish Lauren off.
Lauren gets to her feet, and Liz attempts the move, but Lauren spins out of the
way, boots Liz in the stomach, and nails her with a vicious tiger driver! Lauren covers… one, two, three!
VAST’s “Free” hits the speakers and Lauren is not
satisfied. Angry that Liz gave her so
much trouble, Lauren begins kicking Liz while she’s down, prompting the fans to
boo. However, the Women’s Champion
Camieko rushes down to ringside to stop the attack, starting a wave of
cheers. Camieko runs off Lauren, and the
two stare each other down, just days before their title encounter. As they burn holes through one another with
their eyes, we take our first commercial break.

SEGMENT 3: JUMBOTRON:
As we return from break, a video package airs, set to Metallica’s “Don’t Tread on Me.” The video has numerous highlights of the illustrious career of GI Jew, including his Golden Ring tournament victory, and his two PWA World Championship wins. As the package concludes, a graphic appears on screen, reading, “GI Jew Returns – Next Week.”
SEGMENT 4: RINGSIDE:
The murmuring is silenced by 50 Cent’s “Da
Repercussions,” which the crowd is not enthusiastic about hearing. They boo
loudly when they catch sight of Mike Grieco emerging from behind the curtain,
with Dee Licious at his side. Grieco wastes no time and power walks to the
ring, as
Grieco: Hellbent is right around the corner, and I
can’t wait for it to get here! That’s right, Failla, I’m anxious to get into
that monstrosity with you, just so I can throw you out of it! You think that by
making that match, you’ll scare me, but you’re forgetting that you’re going to
be in there with me! You signed your own death sentence! You and I are going to
be stuck in a ring with a caged floor and glass walls, and we’ll be floating
several feet in the air with burning tables all around us! But I’m the one
that’s going to make sure that I’ll send you head first through that glass and
through the fire! Come Saturday, I’ll be sending you straight to Hell!
Grieco isn’t given the chance to utter another word when G-Unit’s “G’d Up” completely drowns him out, and the audience goes
wild as Failla bolts down the ramp in a haste!
Failla trudges over to
Ferrara: Hey, she can distract me any day.
We see Failla and Grieco being dragged out of the ring by the officials
before fading to a commercial break.

SEGMENT 5: MATCH
2: JUSTICE VS. REAPER:
Referee:
Speed Demon
"Want" by The Cure hits, bringing Speed Demon
out to a pretty favorable reaction from the crowd. Demon looks extremely uneasy
in his striped referee's shirt, but climbs in the ring prepared to do his job
as Buckcherry's "Alone" takes over. Boos
rain down for the arrival of Reaper and he sports a confident look as he walks
down the ramp and climbs into the ring. Demon says a few angry words to Reaper,
whon puts his arms up and tells Demon to just do his
job.
Demon and Reaper have no more time to argue once DMX's "Where Da Hood
At" hits and Justice rushes down the ramp. His huge ovation continues as
he slides into the ring and immediately goes to work on Reaper with heavy right
hands that dizzy the former Progressive Champion.
Justice Irish whips Reaper hard into the turnbuckles and
then does it again to the opposite end before sending Reaper up and down with a
big back body drop. justice gets into a cover and
Demon makes a fair count of one...two...and Reaper kicks out.
Justice gets up and scoops Reaper above his head for a
gorilla press, but Reaper rakes him in the eyes and scores with a DDT. Demon admonishes the raking, but is forced to make a
count as Reaper covers for two.
Reaper clutches on a side headlock and Justice shoves him
off to the ropes. Reaper bounces off quickly and bangs heads with Justice,
sending both men reeling as Justice hits the mat hard
and Reaper falls out of the ring. Demon looks outside to the fallen Reaper and shurgs before going to check on Justice. Reaper begins to
stir and peers over the apron to find the ref's back turned, prompting him to
force Lee Palmer up and take his chair from under him.
Reaper rolls back into the ring as Justice finally begins
to get to his feet. Reaper raises the chair, but Demon reaches back and yanks
it from his arms to a big pop from the crowd!
Reaper tries to back away from an irate Speed Demon, until
he turns with the chair and cracks Justice right
across the face!
The crowd is in utter disbelief until Demon raises the
chair again and nails Justice once more, right atop the cranium! The crowd
breaks out in passionate boos as a beaming Reaper turns Justice over and covers
him for Demon to count one...two...three!
"Alone" hits again and the jeers grow even
louder as Reaper and Speed Demon embrace in the middle of the ring, right next
to the fallen Justice!
Ferrara: After all that time, Speed Demon has turned on Justice! You
know what we have just witnessed
Demon and Reaper stomp away on a now bloodied Justice
until the PWA trainers and officials rush out to help him. The Lost Souls exit
the ring together for the first time in months as we take a commercial break.

SEGMENT
6: BACKSTAGE:
A camera is following Commissioner Kerry Cox as he walks through the
hallways backstage and eventually runs into Justin Schenck, who is flanked by
Darrin Giles, Scott Hosemann and The Naturals.
Cox: (Sighing) Fellas! Since we never
speak without you wanting something, what will it be tonight?
Schenck: First off,
you will not address us in that way Mr. Cox. I am letting you know that from
this moment on, this group is now known as The Legacy. And what we want is our
chance at the limelight around here. This is the greatest assembly of talent in
this company and each one of these men should be wearing gold right now. What
are you gonna do about that?
Cox: Wait until Hellbent, when The Naturals have their shot at the tag team
titles.
Schenck: No, no Commish. You don't understand me. All of them should be
sporting gold, not just The Naturals. I know you're scared of the impact we are
about to make on this company, but you have to do the right thing here.
Cox: Alright, since
I'm tired of hearing your whining, and I do mean extremely tired of it, this is
what I'm going to do. Scott and Darrin are both off tonight, but not anymore. I
will give them a match tonight against both The International and Progressive
Champions, Steve Beovich and Dean Nash. If The Legacy wins that match, Hosemann
will take on Beovich or Jon Dulberg next week for The International Title in
Schenck: That's an
awesome deal! We--
Cox: But that's not
all Justin. If your guys lose, none of you will have a crack at gold, because
The Naturals will forefit their spot in the TLC at Hellbent. Now, do we have a deal?
Schenck: Absolutely!
Price: What?!
Cox walks away as The Naturals get in Schenck's
face, with Hosemann and Giles holding them back.
Schenck: Guys, guys,
we've got this. There is nothing to worry about. Greg, you just focus on
winning your match tonight. Scott and Darrin will handle the rest. This is our
big shot guys! It's the birth of The Legacy! Can you feel it?!
Schenck walks away excited as his team shows mixed looks
of worry and anticipation behind him as they head to the ring.

GREG TANTALUS:
Referee:
Matt Hansen
"Black" by Sevendust begins to play and the
crowd rumbles with cheers as Paul Dawkins and Jackie Baccaro step through the
curtain and down the ramp. The Tag Team Champions pose on the turnbuckles with
their title belts high until Earshot's "Control" takes over. Dawkins
hands his belt to Baccaro on the outside of the ring as Justin Schenck leads
The Naturals to the ring. Greg Price steps through the ropes and looks across
at Dawkins until "Have You Ever Felt" by Ill Nino takes over.
TFU makes their way down to the ring to a bevy of
boos but Greg Tantalus looks extremely focused as he stands on the apron and
looks out to the crowd before stepping into the ring. Hollywood Mike Griffin
also antagonizes the crowd until three D-Bombs slice through the air and
explode on the ramp. B.G.'s remix of "Hottest Of The Hot" begins and a loud ovation sets the tone for
the arrival of Romeo. Jaguar accompanies his partner down to the ring and The
Hot Boy$ slap hands before Da Playboi
slides into the ring.
The action starts off fast and furious, with Price trading
fists with Dawkins as Tantalus gets the jump on Romeo. Tantalus and Price
happen to Irish whip both men at the same time, but Romeo and Dawkins each duck
their swipes before taking them down with a clothesline from each. Tantalus and
Price roll away from the action, leaving Romeo and Dawkins staring one another
down.
Dawkins and Romeo quickly tear into each other with fists,
but Romeo quickly wins that battle by backing Dawkins up to the ropes and clotheslining him over the top in front of
Price scoops Tantalus up and delivers a big body slam
before bouncing off the ropes and scoring with a big kneedrop.
Price covers for a count of two, but he is yanked off by the returning Dawkins.
Price throws a big right hand, but Dawkins blocks it and kicks him in the
midsection before hitting the ropes himself to land a Scud Missile in the
middle of the ring! Dawkins covers and hooks the leg for one...two...and Price
narrowly escapes!
Tantalus and Romeo are both up and battling again as
Dawkins slings Price into a corner. The champion runs forward and connects with
a big Stinger Splash that sends Price falling flat on his face before he
signals for the M.O.A.B. Dawkins gets Price into position, but he's yanked out
of the ring by Anthony and Schenck!
Romeo floors Tantalus with a powerslam
before turning his attention to Price. Baccaro goes to help Dawkins out against
Anthony and Schenck on the outside, but in the ring, Romeo lifts Price up and
spikes him with The Dre Day Powerbomb! Romeo makes a cover for one...two...,
but he's pulled from the ring by Mike Griffin! Jaguar nails
Troy: This match is
over, but the brawl has just begun here!
