PWA
OVERDRIVE

Georgia Dome

Atlanta, Georgia

June 7, 2003

 

The PWA logo flashes onto the screen before fading away and getting right into the opening for Overdrive. With the Foo Fighters’ “All My Life” playing, we are taken inside the amazing Georgia Dome, where a vivid fireworks display brightens the building. The camera shows the immense crowd on hand before settling in on our commentators for Overdrive.

 

Cade: Hello everybody, I’m Nick Cade alongside Rick Madsen, and welcome to PWA Overdrive! Rick, bar none, this is the biggest night we have had here in the Progressive Wrestling Alliance; look at this crowd!

 

Madsen:  It sure is Nick! The Symphony of Destruction is less than an hour away, and this crowd is pumped up beyond belief! Look up Nick, because we’re gonna see that 15-foot high steel cage lowered down tonight when Jaguar defends the PWA Championship against GI Jew!

 

Cade: We will indeed, but I’m looking forward to the 12-round exhibition bout between Showtime Damon Savage and Evander “The Real Deal” Holyfield. Both fighters are here in the building and that will be an amazing contest!

 

Segment 1 – Backstage

 

We are taken to the parking lot, where a crowd has formed in wait of the PWA superstars to arrive. The security guards clear the way for a metallic blue Cadillac Escalade to pull into the parking lot. After it comes to a stop, the Romeo exits from the driver’s side and Jaguar does the same from the opposite end. The fans go crazy at the sight of the Hot Boy$ as they enter the Georgia Dome.

 

Segment 2, Match 1 – Magnifica and Michelle vs. Kayne and Jade

Referee: Dan Martin

 

The lights of the Georgia Dome go down as ring announcer Lee Palmer climbs into the ring and “She’s A Bitch” by Missy Elliot hits the PA system.

 

Palmer: This next women’s tag team match is scheduled for one fall! First, representing S.I.N., at a total combined weight of 225 pounds, the team of Magnifica and Michelle!

A chorus of boos follow as the ladies of S.I.N. make their way down the long ramp and into the ring. Michelle looks out to the massive crowd, but Magnifica quickly gets in her ear, keeping her partner focused on the task at hand as “Who’s That Girl” by Eve hits.

 

Palmer: And their opponents; first, from South Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, weighing 125 pounds, Kayne!

 

Kayne receives a strong reaction from the crowd as she begins her walk to the ring. Once she reaches halfway, she stops as “Zerospace” by Kidneythieves begins and Jade enters to an overwhelming pop!

 

Palmer: And her partner, making her way to the ring from Las Vegas, Nevada and weighing 120 pounds, Jade!

 

Jade and Kayne meet on the ramp and both charge the ring! Magnifica and Michelle quickly slide out as their opponents rush in. Dan Martin gets control of the contest and calls for the bell.

 

Cade: This is Jade’s first match back since being cracked in the head with a chair by Vulture at Animosity.

 

Madsen: Yeah, that was about four weeks ago. I think Magnifica is gonna test whether or not Jade has healed properly in that month.

 

Magnifica begins things off with Kayne, tying her in a side headlock. Kayne backs to the ropes and tries to shove her off, but Michelle keeps her grip by grabbing the reddish hair of Kayne. Martin scolds Michelle as Magnifica cheers her on, but Kayne surprises her with a back suplex! Kayne bridges into a pin for 1---2---and Michelle kicks out!

 

Cade: Kayne almost had her there.

 

Madsen: Michelle was surprised, but its gonna take a lot more than that to pin her.

 

Kayne lifts Michelle up and Irish whips her, but Michelle reverses the whip. Kayne bounces off and runs right into a clothesline from Michelle. Michelle moves to her corner and tags Magnifica, causing the crowd to jeer. Magnifica enters the ring and blasts Kayne with a hard right hand to the head, sending her to the canvas.

 

Madsen: Magnifica is just gonna pick Kayne apart right now.

 

Cade: Kayne really needs to make a tag to Jade.

 

Kayne inches towards her corner, but Magnifica drags her back by her foot and drops an elbow on her. Kayne writhes on the mat and Magnifica heads over to taunt Jade. Martin gets between the two ladies, and Michelle takes the opportunity to stomp away on Kayne while the ref’s back is turned.

 

Cade: Turn around Dan!

 

Michelle exits and Magnifica waits for Kayne to reach her feet. When she does, Magnifica charges, but Kayne catches her with a powerslam! The fans come alive as Kayne slowly crawls to her corner for a tag. Michelle enters the ring and Martin goes over to her just as Kayne makes the tag!

 

Jade enters the ring and heads straight for Magnifica, tackling her to the ground and pounding her head into the mat! Michelle pries her off as Martin tells Jade to go back to her corner. The crowd boos what they see, and Jade protests long enough for Michelle to switch places with Magnifica and roll Kayne up! Magnifica knocks Jade from the ring apron as Martin gets into position and counts one…two…three!

 

Cade: C’mon Dan, she wasn’t even the legal woman in the ring!

 

Madsen: He can’t call what he can’t see. If Jade didn’t rush in there, maybe things would have been different.

 

“Going Under” by Evanescence plays as Magnifica and Michelle exit quickly, but happily as well.

 

Winners via pinfall at 6:44 – Michelle and Magnifica

 

Segment 3 – Backstage

 

We are now back in the parking lot, where a stretch black limousine pulls to a stop. The driver gets out and opens the back door, allowing the four male members of S.I.N., being Speed Demon, Reaper, Vulture and Smooth Greg Tantalus to get out and enter the building amidst the fans’ jeers outside.

 

-COMMERCIAL BREAK-

 

Segment 4 – Jumbotron

 

Our attention is directed to a video package airing on the Jumbotron, set to Darkseed’s “Cold Under Water.”  We see images of a cold tundra, and waves crashing on the shore from the Artic Ocean.  It is dawn, and in the midst of this lifeless mass of land, running towards the ocean, is a massive creature, jogging at a furious pace along the coast.  As he runs, a voice begins to speak.

Narrator:  At the northernmost tip of Alaska, you can find the city of Barrow.  With a population of under 5,000 and summer temperatures of under 30 degrees, life in these parts is few and far between.  However, one thing remains, fighting its way through the night.  This thing stands six feet, nine inches, and weighs 293 pounds of solid muscle.  This thing, this monster … is Solomon.

The camera cuts back to Solomon running along the coast, wearing no coat, just a black shirt and deep blue pants.  The camera catches a shot of the monster’s face and its bright blue eyes, its golden blonde hair and thick blonde beard.  Solomon runs out of sight as the narrator speaks again.

Narrator:  Rest easy while you can.  Our time is running out.  Solomon is coming.

Segment 5 – Backstage

 

We are now taken to the interview area is packed with Tracie Reed and two special guests.

 

Reed: Well guys, the atmosphere here in the Georgia Dome is absolutely electric, and my guests right now know all about that. Romeo, Jaguar, you guys teamed for the first time in months last Tuesday on Frequency, but tonight, neither of you will have any partners. Romeo, tonight you have returned to your hometown to compete in the 30-man Symphony of Destruction. What is on your mind?

 

Romeo: First of all Tracie, it’s good to be back home. The Hot Boy$ represent that Dirty South, and we are right here in the capital, A-town. Now about the Symphony of Destruction, I’m looking to win this thing no doubt, but I can definitely say that I hope I get to see my old buddy Mike Grieco in there, if you know what I mean Tracie.

 

Reed: I think I do. Now onto you, Jaguar. Tonight, you will go one-on-one with GI Jew inside of a steel cage with your PWA World Heavyweight Championship on the line. What are your thoughts?

 

Jaguar: How long you got? Since about March, GI Jew has been a huge thorn in my side. The guy gored me in a locker room and tried to break my back. I beat him at Requiem and proceeded to rip his pectoral in the process, but that doesn’t keep this guy down. He came back week after week, all in efforts to put me out of business. As far as I’m concerned Josh, this thing is personal now. I know you’re no chump and that you can bring it in the ring, but tonight, I’m gonna bring it all right to your door cuz. I am the Heavyweight Champion of your World Tracie, and that’s something that I’m not going to let go of. I know you’re coming for my head on a platter man, but tonight, we’re gonna see if you’re bad enough to come and take it. I’ll see you inside the walls of steel…bitch.

 

Jaguar then storms off the set, leaving a bewildered Romeo and Reed in his wake.

 

Segment 6 – Ringside

 

Cade: Man, Jaguar is intense tonight.

 

Madsen: He sure is. If you thought he was intense when he won the title at Animosity, he will be even more intense trying to keep it tonight.

 

Cade: Well like I said earlier, I can’t wait for the 12-round fight between Evander Holyfield and Showtime Damon Savage that will take place tonight.

 

Madsen: Showtime made the challenge, and I’m sure he’ll back it up tonight.

 

Cade: Well, lets take you back and show how the tension began between these two men.

 

Segment 7 – Jumbotron

 

All eyes turn to the Jumbotron, where a clip is shown of the May 13, 2003 edition of Frequency, during Savage’s first PWA match, against Chad Hasty.

 

Hasty nearly falls down from the impact, but Showtime gets behind him, and grabs his arm across his neck before lifting him up and slamming him hard on his back!  Savage covers and Hansen counts 1,2,3!

Troy: What an impressive showing for Showtime!

Ferrara: It sure was! I talked to him earlier, and he told me that move is called "Its Showtime". I guess Hasty just found out what time it was.

Troy: Well his attitude still sucks. Oh no, what does he want now?

Showtime gets a microphone from ringside as Hasty is helped out of the ring.

Savage: Cut my music. Did you see that people? That was just a little example of what Showtime can bring inside the wrestling ring. Now Showtime was watching the broadcast earlier, and Showtime saw that Evander Holyfield was here tonight. (Crowd cheers) Showtime agrees, he's one of the best. Lets give it up for him. He's one of the best losers that Showtime has ever seen! (Crowd now boos) Hey Holyfield, we all saw you fight Lennox Lewis and I wanted to ask you how many times do you need to get your ass whooped to realize you're done?!

Troy: Someone cut the mic!

Ferrara: No way, this is great!

Troy: And now he's heading out there!

Savage: Showtime has watched you Holyfield, and these people are just gassing your head up man. You're done. It's because of guys like you that great boxers like Showtime got overlooked. You're nothing!

Holyfield stands up and the crowd cheers as security surrounds both men. Target Center security gets in front of Holyfield as PWA security surrounds Savage. As they try to whisk Savage away, Showtime spits in Holyfield's face! Holyfield is enraged as security holds him back and Showtime is literally lifted and carried to the back.

 

Cornelius: I'm here with Damon Savage. Damon, what has gotten into you to make you act that way out there?

Savage: First of all, that's Showtime to you kid. Holyfield, you have no right to show up here and try to outshine Showtime! You're washed up, and I'm gonna prove it to the world! I know I'd kill you if you tried to wrestle me, but at Symphony of Destruction, I'm challenging to a boxing match! If you've got the balls, bring it in Atlanta sucka!


We are now shown Holyfield’s response to Savage’s challenge on the following episode of Frequency.

 

Holyfield: First off Victor, just call me Evander. Now last week, I was in Minneapolis on business, and I decided to attend Frequency. I’m a big fan and I just came to see some wrestling, but Showtime Damon Savage decided to change all that. He called me washed up and challenged me to an exhibition match. Basically, he wants to fight me and make a name off of Evander Holyfield.

 

Ferrara: So are you going to accept or not?

 

Holyfield: I’ll answer that in a minute, if you let me get to it Paul. Now I haven’t retired from boxing, even though I know my career is winding down. But since Showtime is a loudmouth punk who is looking to make a name off of me, that answer is yes. The Georgia Dome is only a few minutes away from my house here in Decatur, and I will see him there on June 7.

 

With the crowd cheering immensely, the camera cuts backstage, where Scott Cornelius is standing by with Showtime.

 

Cornelius: Showtime, Evander Holyfield has just accepted your invitation for a 12-round exhibition match at Symphony of Destruction. What are your thoughts?

 

Savage: (smirking) Evander Holyfield has no idea what he is getting into. He just made Showtime’s day kid.

 

Next, we are shown both competitors during their training:

 

We are taken inside the Georgia Dome, which is empty, except for Holyfield and his trainers. A ring is already set up in the center, but Holyfield runs up the steps and through the aisles of the 60,000+ seat structure, training as if never before. He spars inside the ring with a partner, nailing every target he’s given. “The Real Deal” is showing signs of his previous greatness inside the ring on this night, dancing around the ring, fighting his way out of the corner, and dodging every quick blow thrown by his team. A quick right hand lands his partner on the canvas as Holyfield looks into the camera and begins to speak.

 

Holyfield: Showtime, you ran your mouth, and this Saturday, you will find out what “The Real Deal” is all about!

 

We now see an empty boxing ring inside a gymnasium. Showtime climbs into the ring and moves around in it, showing blazing speed. A sparring partner enters, and Savage displays his punching precision, never missing the mark at all. Various clips are shown next, including Showtime jumping rope, bench-pressing weights, punching in a pool and running up a steep hill.

Back in the ring, Showtime nails a left hook that sends his sparring partner to the floor, totally unconscious.

 

Savage: Holyfield, Showtime said you had no idea what you were getting into. You’ll find out what time it is when Showtime sees you in A-Town bitch.

 

Segment 8 – Backstage

 

A camera is set backstage in a hallway, where Mike Griffin and Jason Calysto are carrying their bags toward their dressing room.

 

Griffin: We’ve got a big night tonight.

 

Calysto: Sure do. First, we defend and keep our tag team titles against Greg and Vulture, and after we beat them, it’s on to the Symphony of Destruction.

 

Griffin: That’s gonna be huge. I wonder what it’s gonna feel like to win it all.

 

Calysto: Oh don’t worry, I’ll be sure to let you know dude.

 

-COMMERCIAL BREAK-

 

Segment 9 – Jumbotron

 

Our attention is directed to a video package airing on the Jumbotron, set to Darkseed’s “Cold Under Water.”  We see images of a dimly lit, dingy basement, where a massive creature is shown effortlessly bench-pressing exorbitant amounts of weight.   The creature is shirtless and appears to be a mass of solid muscle, toned at every crevice, and containing not an ounce of fat.

Narrator:  At the northernmost tip of Alaska, you can find the city of Barrow.  But why would you want to?  For Barrow is haunted by a monster that quite simply cannot be human.  This creature possesses strength unseen before by human eyes, and prowls the cold Barrow nights looking for a new challenge, a new feat to conquer.  This thing stands six feet, nine inches, and weighs 293 pounds of solid muscle.  This thing, this monster … is Solomon.

The camera cuts back to Solomon, blasting out the front door of what is presumably his house, over to a neighboring truck.  Braving the Alaskan tundra, Solomon turns his back to the truck, lifts the front end about two feet off the ground and begins effortlessly dragging it through the snow.

Narrator:  Rest easy while you can.  Our time is running out.  Solomon is coming.

 

Segment 10 - Backstage

 

We are now back at the interview area, where Tracie Reed is standing by with Jenny Ottati.

 

Reed: Jenny, tonight you get a shot at the PWA Women’s Championship in a match that Allison Kelly has proclaimed to be your last chance. What are your thoughts?

 

Jenny: Tracie, I’m still pretty new around here. This is going to be my first-ever match on pay-per-view, and I was a little bit nervous…until I realized what is at stake tonight. I’ve got a chance to become the Women’s Champion and make a dream come true.

 

Slight clapping can be heard in the background, belonging to Allison Kelly. The Women’s Champion enters the shot and gets right in her challenger’s face.

 

Kelly: Isn’t that special? You can realize your dream. Wake up honey! I am going to rip you apart out there, even worse than last time. You rest up, because in a little while, you’ll still be resting…in a hospital bed. See you out there Jennifer.

 

Kelly exits the scene, leaving an irate Ottati behind.

 

Segment 11 – Backstage

 

A camera is now set on the back door of the Georgia Dome, where NYCW superstar Jackie Baccaro has just entered. Baccaro seems to be in awe of the situation he is in tonight until he bumps into PWA Owner Bryan Conroy.

 

Conroy: Hey Jackie, how are you man?

 

Baccaro: I’m feeling good Mr. Conroy. I’m just happy to be here.

 

Conroy: Well don’t.

 

Baccaro: Don’t what?

 

Conroy: Don’t just be happy to be here. I brought you here for a reason, and that reason is because I believe that you can win this Symphony of Destruction tonight. You’ve been tearing it up in NYCW lately, and you have as good a shot as anyone to win tonight. You just need to believe it. Go suit up.

 

Conroy pats Baccaro on the back and leaves as Jackie carries an intrigued look on his face.

 

Segment 12 – Backstage

 

A camera is now following Scott Cornelius, who is in search of someone. He reaches a dressing room door and knocks on it, a call that is answered by Justice.

 

Cornelius: Uhh…hello Mr. Justice. I was hoping to get a word with GI Jew. Is he in?

 

Walter Gindin gets in front of Justice, but still remains behind the door.

 

Gindin: Excuse me Scott, but my client doesn’t want to speak to anyone right now.

 

Jew: Walter, move!

 

GI Jew gets up and shoves his agent out of the way in order to open the door.

 

Jew: As a matter of fact Scott, I’m happy to see you. Give me the microphone and get the hell out of here! (Cornelius hands the mic over and runs off, trying to preserve his health as GI Jew looks right into the camera) Jaguar, you had a nice little victory the other night. You hit me with the Heatwave and notched a nice little win for yourself. Congrats, but your luck has just run out bitch. All that Heatwave did was wake me up. In the past few weeks, I forgot why I wanted to kill you tonight, but I realize once more. I should have had the PWA title a month ago, but you put me out by tearing my pec. Well you see that pec you tore now? It’s got a new tattoo on it, a tattoo that reminds me of the payback that you will receive tonight Jaguar. I’m back to being the sadistic son of a bitch that I used to be. The guy that beat the hell out of Kerry Cox, the guy that ruined the PWA’s Christmas by destroying Santa Norm and tossing elves to and fro! Jaguar, I am going to bash your goddamn skull in, and I’m really gonna enjoy taking your title as I do it! I’ll see you in the cage bro. Be safe while you still can.

 

Jew slams the door hard in front of the camera.

 

Segment 13  - Backstage

 

We are once again taken outside, where it is starting to get dark in the Georgia sky. A red 2003 Supra speeds into the parking lot and pulls into a space. The fans cheer the driver, Scythe, who waves to the crowd as he pops the trunk for his bags. The camera then cuts to the left, where Superstar Scott Hosemann and Kerry Cox have also just arrived.

 

Cox: I’m feeling good tonight Scott.

 

Hosemann: Me too man. Tonight, I have an opportunity to get back into the main event of Everlasting Epic, and this time, I’ll leave with the title.

 

Cox: That Symphony of Destruction is gonna be something else. I wish I were in it, but that’s alright because this is going to be my kind of night. I’m here for a fight tonight, a fight that Beovich won’t forget.

 

Hosemann: After you win that hardcore match, and I win the Symphony of Destruction and the PWA Title, we could have a title vs. title match down the road! It’s a great idea!

 

-COMMERCIAL BREAK-

 

Segment 14 – Jumbotron

 

Our attention is directed to a video package airing on the Jumbotron, set to Darkseed’s “Cold Under Water.”  We see images of a rising sun over a cold, frozen tundra.  A wide shot shows no visible life, with the exception of one figure standing in the distance.  As the camera pulls closer to the figure, a voice is heard.

Narrator:  At the northernmost tip of Alaska, you can find the city of Barrow.  But why would you want to?  For Barrow is haunted by a monster that quite simply cannot be human.  This creature possesses strength unseen before by human eyes, and prowls the cold Barrow nights looking for a new challenge, a new feat to conquer.  This thing stands six feet, nine inches, and weighs 293 pounds of solid muscle.  This thing, this monster … is Solomon.

The camera now zooms directly on Solomon, cutting back and forth between still shots of the beast and clips from his previous two vignettes, running through the tundra and dragging a truck.  The camera zooms in on Solomon, the cold blue eyes, the light blonde hair, the rock-solid physique, before the voice is heard again.

Narrator:  Rest easy while you can.  Our time is running out.  Solomon is coming … coming to the PWA … coming to the Symphony of Destruction.

Segment 15, Match 2 – Progressive Championship – Infernus vs. Tim Dand ©

With the Symphony of Destruction broadcast moments away, the fans probably feel as if the excitement of their anticipation has peaked, but it hasn't.  "Smash Sumthin'" by Redman hits, and the number one contender to the PWA Progressive Championship, Infernus, appears at the top of the entrance ramp.  The cocky cruiserweight makes no reservation about returning the disdain the crowd seems to have for him, and evidently considers them a non-factor in his challenge tonight.

His opponent however, is not by any stretch of the imagination a non-factor.  Tim Dand is the Progressive Champion for a reason, and the fans demonstrate their support and acceptance of this as he makes his way down to the ring to the sound of "Passenger" by the Deftones.  Infernus trash talks him and beckons him fiercely.  Dand shrugs, drops his belt, and rushes the ring full speed.  Dand rolls into the ring and the bell immediately rings as the two proceed to pound each other blow for blow.

Troy:  I really don't know how to call this one, Paul.

Ferrara:  What else is new?


Dand gradually takes the upper hand, and there is a strong ovation for when he does.  Dand whips Infernus towards the opposing ropes, and blasts him with a dropkick upon his return.  Infernus gets up, and Dand drops him again with a flying shoulder block.  Dand follows this up with a hurricanrana that sends Infernus flying over the top rope.  However, Infernus lands on the apron, and attempts to springboard off of the top rope onto Dand's shoulders.  Dand however, in a remarkable display of strength, tosses the airborne Infernus behind him.

Infernus lands on the middle rope, and then launches himself off of that into a low, quick asai moonsault.  Dand is leveled into a pin as the referee counts one, two, but then momentum of the move continues in Dand's favor as he rolls on top of Infernus for the one, two, and Infernus kicks out.  Dand drops a swift elbow into Infernus's chest to keep him down, and then climbs the ring post for the Insulin Shot!  Fans prepare their cameras for what is quite possibly the most spectacular high-flying move in the company.

Troy:  This one could be over right now!  I think that Dand thinks Infernus's blood sugar is a little low!


Dand takes to the air with the Insulin Shot, and stops Infernus from moving for what might be the rest of the match!  He immediately locks the impact into a pinning combination, and the referee counts one, two, thr--no!  Infernus kicks out!  Infernus kicks out of the Insulin Shot!  Dand looks entirely confused and befuddled, and he looks up at the referee and squints.  The referee nods, confirming that it was only a two, and Dand simply shakes his head, and proceeds to lock on the Diabetic Coma! 

Infernus struggles in the hold, before running forward, stepping up the ropes, and flipping backwards behind Dand!  The fans don't know what to think as Infernus locks onto Dand for a German suplex.  Dand counters by slipping out into a hammerlock, which Infernus counters by flipping out of it into a hammerlock of his own.  Dand attempts to escape by running up the ropes in the corner, but Infernus is right behind him, yanking him down hard onto his back.  Infernus then climbs the ring post, and hits a tremendous high diving moonsault.  He covers for the one...two...yes, three!

Troy:  What?!  Talk about taking a page out of someone else's playbook! 

Ferrara:  Infernus just beat Tim Dand with his brother Mike Griffin’s own finisher!

Troy:  Infernus and Griffin and brothers?!

Ferrara:  Where the hell have YOU been?!  Ah, who cares!  Infernus is the new PWA Progressive Champion! 

Troy:  And the fans don't sound happy at all.

Winner via pinfall at 9:52 and new Progressive Champion – Infernus

 

Segment 16 – Jumbotron

 

Megadeth’s “Symphony of Destruction” hits the speakers and we see a graphic appear on the screen that reads “PWA Symphony of Destruction Report.”  From there, the shot takes us to a backstage set and rookie PWA reporter Ron O’Brien, who is standing in front of a backdrop featuring the Symphony of Destruction logo.

O’Brien:  Hello ladies and gentlemen, my name is Ron O’Brien and this is the Symphony of Destruction report.  Folks, we’re just minutes away from what promises to be the biggest pay-per-view spectacular in the history of the PWA, Symphony of Destruction, live from right here in the Georgia Dome!  The centerpiece of this incredible event is the Symphony of Destruction match itself, a first-ever in this industry!  The Symphony of Destruction will consist of thirty PWA superstars, each randomly drawing a number from one to thirty.  Numbers one and two will start the match, with a new superstar entering every two minutes thereafter.  Sounds exactly like a Royal Rumble, you’re saying.  Of course it does.  However, there is one immense difference: in a Royal Rumble, elimination can be scored only via tossing your opponent over the top rope and to the arena floor.  In the Symphony of Destruction, fighting on the outside of the ring is completely legal and, often, encouraged.  No one can be eliminated by being tossed over the top rope.  There are only two ways to eliminate an opponent: by pinning them to the mat, 1, 2, 3, or by forcing them to submit.  The Symphony of Destruction gives you all the suspense and intrigue of a Royal Rumble, but the added bonus of having to pin your opponent or make them submit to determine a true and clear winner.  The last man standing tonight will be declared number one contender to the PWA Championship and will challenge for that title on August 9 at the Superdome in New Orleans at PWA Everlasting Epic II, the one-year anniversary of the Progressive Wrestling Alliance!  As of now, the full 30 superstars have entered the Symphony of Destruction, and they are Vulture, Mike Griffin, Jason Calysto, Mike Tortorici, The Machine, D-Gunz, James Biamonte, Tony Annetta, Speed Demon, Reaper, Superstar Scott Hosemann, Scythe, Loki, The Miracle Mike Troha, Mike Grieco, Romeo, Brokensoul Jon Brett, Smooth Greg Tantalus, Infernus, Henry Swanson, Spanish Fly, 7-Any Power, Tim Dand, Don Cerrone, Daredevyl, Chad Hasty, Sonny DiBono, NYCW superstar Jackie Baccaro, Justice, and the monster known as Solomon, who will make his PWA debut! 

 Also in store for this spectacular pay-per-view will be a PWA Championship confrontation pitting the two-time reigning champion Jaguar, against the number-one contender,
GI Jew.  GI Jew has challenged for the title in the past, but this is, by far, his most high-profile attempt to snag the gold, as it will take place inside the confines of a steel cage!

 

In a match signed last week on Frequency, Mike Griffin and Jason Calysto will defend the PWA World Tag Team Championship against their hated enemies, SIN leaders Vulture and Greg Tantalus in what promises to be a match for the ages.

The International Championship will be defended tonight at Symphony of Destruction, as the reigning champion Kerry Cox defends against the upstart former Progressive Champion, The Omega Steve Beovich, in what should be an incredibly physical encounter, seeing as it will now be contested under hardcore rules.

The PWA Women’s Championship will also be up for grabs, when the sensational young upstart Jenny Ottati challenges the dominant champion, Allison Kelly.

 

Renegade will go one-on-one with his former partner Paul Dawkins, with no interference, and no count-outs. There will be nowhere for Renegade to run this time, will Dawkins pull it out?


And, of course, we will see Showtime Damon Savage go head-to-head with Evander “The Real Deal” Holyfield in a 12-round boxing exhibition!  It will be put up or shut up time in Atlanta, Holyfield’s hometown, at Symphony of Destruction!


That’s all for tonight, folks. The Symphony of Destruction is almost at hand.  For the Symphony of Destruction report, I’m Ron O’Brien, saying enjoy the show!
