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 Burlington, Vermont, where fans are cheering wildly, breaking out in chants of “Al-li-son!  Al-li-son!” honoring the fallen superstar.  The entire PWA roster is present at ringside, each superstar wearing a black armband with the letters “AK” emblazoned on it.  The camera then shifts to ring announcer Lee Palmer inside the ring.

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, Linkin Park's "By_Myslf" hits and we are sent back inside the Memorial Auditorium in Burlington, Vermont, where “Free” by VAST begins to play as we are taken to commentators Victor Troy and Paul Ferrara at ringside.

SEGMENT 2:  MATCH 1:  LAUREN TANTALUS VS. LIZ RUSH:
Referee:  Dan Martin

Troy:  Hello everyone and welcome to PWA Frequency.  I’m Victor Troy, along here with Paul Ferrara, and we are here tonight to celebrate the life of three-time PWA Women’s Champion Allison Kelly, who tragically passed away this past weekend.

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.

Troy:  Well, tonight, we do have a show to run, and we’re going to do it as best as we possibly can under the circumstances.  Lauren Tantalus is on her way to the ring right now, ready for one-on-one action against Liz Rush.

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.

Troy:  Don’t sell Liz short, Paul.  She could definitely pull off an upset here.  Folks, I’d also like to take this opportunity to mention some of the matches you’ll see here tonight.  In the main event, PWA Champion Scythe teams with Jason Calysto to battle Solomon and Infernus.  In a fatal fourway match, Romeo, Paul Dawkins, Greg Price, and Greg Tantalus will do battle.  And also, Reaper takes on Justice, with Speed Demon as the special guest official.

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.

Troy:  It looks like Liz Rush is a little too much for Lauren to handle here in the early-going.

Ferrara:  Maybe so, but Lauren is a pro.  She’ll bounce back.

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!

Troy:  And just like that, this one is over!

Ferrara:  Lauren Tantalus is dead-set on regaining the women’s title in four days!

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.
WINNER VIA PINFALL AT 4:58:  LAUREN TANTALUS

 
-- COMMERCIAL BREAK #1 --



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 Dee rushes down along side him. They climb into the ring simultaneously, and while Dee takes the time to pose for the crowd, Grieco goes off to the side to snatch a microphone. He begins talking, cutting off both his music and the crowd.

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! Dee covers her mouth and backs herself into a corner like a petrified animal, while Grieco drops the mic and beckons Failla to enter the ring. It doesn’t take long for Failla to comply, as he slides into the ring and takes the fight right to Grieco! It becomes a battle of fists that Failla gets the better of. Failla backs Grieco into the ropes and launches him out of the ring with a clothesline that the crowd pops for! Failla smirks with Grieco writhing on the outside, before turning his attention to the frightened Dee.

Ferrara: What’s he looking at?! Don’t tell me he’s going to hurt that beautiful woman!

Failla trudges over to Dee and grabs her by the hair, who starts screaming at the top of her lungs enough so that it’s actually audible over the raucous cheering from the crowd! Failla laughs maniacally in her face before getting her into position for the Almighty Sacrifice! However, he’s attacked from behind when Grieco re-enters the ring. Failla releases Dee and resumes battling Grieco until numerous officials rush down to the ring to separate the two.

Ferrara: That was close. Good thing Grieco was there to save her.

Troy: I don’t know about that. Can you imagine the kind of distraction she’d cause if she were ringside at Hellbent? She really doesn’t have business to be out there on Saturday.

Ferrara: Hey, she can distract me any day.

Troy: That’s not what I meant!

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.

 

Ferrara: The bell hasn't even rung and Speed Demon is already letting Reaper have it.

 

Troy: Well it's Reaper's fault that he has to officiate this match when he's never even done it before.

 

Ferrara: Justice didn't have to accept, but he did And that puts Speed Demon in a spot where he has to call things evenly between his tag team partner and his worst enemy I wouldn't want his job tonight at all.

 

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.

 

Ferrara: That was a slow count!

 

Troy: He counted just as fast as he did for Justice!

 

Ferrara: That's why you wear glasses Troy.

 

Troy: I don't wear glasses Paul.

 

Ferrara: Well....you should!

 

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.

 

Ferrara: Justice looks like he's out and now Reaper has a chair!

 

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!

 

Troy: There you go! Speed Demon is going to keep this thing fair!

 

Reaper tries to back away from an irate Speed Demon, until he turns with the chair and cracks Justice right across the face!

 

Troy: What the hell just happened?!?!?!

 

Ferrara: Speed Demon just nailed Justice with that chair!

 

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!

 

Troy: I can't believe this!

 

Ferrara: After all that time, Speed Demon has turned on Justice! You know what we have just witnessed Troy? The reunion of The Lost Souls!

 

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.

WINNER VIA PINFALL AT 6:04:  REAPER

 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 Boston. On the same night, Giles will challenge for The Progressive Championship.

 

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.

SEGMENT 7:  MATCH 3:  ROMEO VS. PAUL DAWKINS VS. GREG PRICE VS. 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.

 

Troy: Dawkins and Romeo are about to go at it!

 

Ferrara: Good, I hope they take each other out before we even get to Hellbent.

 

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 Griffin. Romeo barely has time to turn around when he is gripped in a waistlock by Tantalus, who takes a page from his partner's book with a release German suplex. Tantalus covers for one...two..but he's clubbed from behind by Price!

 

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!

 

Troy: I thought Dawkins had it won right there!

 

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 Griffin from behind, but Tantalus recovers and quickly pins Price for a count of three!

 

Ferrara: Greg Tantalus just pinned Greg Price!

 

Troy: This match is over, but the brawl has just begun here!

 

Ferrara: It could end just that quick at Hellbent too Troy!

 

The Tea Party's "Temptation" hits again and Greg Tantalus quickly jumps outside the ring to help Griffin fend off The Hot Boy$. All nine men brawl on the arena floor and eventually up the ramp as dozens of officials rush out to break things up.

WINNER VIA PINFALL AT 13:11:  GREG TANTALUS
