"SOUTHERN HOSPITALITY" [/size][/color] NEW YORK TIMES account of the FABULOUS FREEBIRDS/BLK MOBB race riot
Michael Hayes got hurt, I believe, to the point where it wasn't part of the act. Blood began to flow, and they immediately began to hit a little harder than they were supposed to, or something. And Hayes got, obviously, a little pissed off . . . And he grabbed Ruckus, -- and this just couldn't be in an act. (Things were beginning to be thrown by then, I believe). Hayes just put his right arm around Ruckus’ head, and from the middle of the ring, ran him right into a ringpost. Head-first, the top of his head. And the blood was now pouring down Ruckus’ face. The people started coming down the aisle towards the ring, and that's when you're in trouble. And it got totally out of hand. I've covered riots in other sporting events other than that. That was the worst riot situation I was ever in, because -- had we not gotten the hell out of there, we could have been very seriously hurt. Those big wooden chairs were flying towards the ring. * Gordon S. White, Jr., sportswriter for the NY Times_____________________________________________________________[/center]

"THE HOTTEST EVENT of the SUMMER" [/size][/color] In a massive attack on Women’s wrestling, ALEXXIS NEVEAH is looking for that 3rd lucky charm at “KNOW the LEDGE”. She blazed to glory at “RESPECT the SHOOTERS & HOOKERS” – defended her title at “CITY of CHAMPIONS” – and now, 3rd time is the charm. At “KNOW the LEDGE”, WWW champion ALEXXIS NEVEAH will defend her title in a 3-Way Elimination Dance against rivals LIZZY BORDEN and SAMMI LANE (forever escorted by the “Adorable” Adrian Adonis). We got these three ladies together for a brief conference call before the big event. Here’s what they had to say: versus versus SAMMI LANE: I first saw an indy show in 4th grade, since my dad knew the Astroman. It was pretty entertaining, but my mom kept me on track with my ballroom dancing. Fast forward to 7th grade. I started watching WWE around the time of the WCW/ECW invasion, and was hooked! I saw how driven the wrestlers were...with passion and energy...and they really inspired me. I knew I wanted to do the same. My freshman year of high school I joined the wrestling team. I had accomplished so much in ballroom dancing and even started teaching....but I needed something new. Then in my junior year I finally joined a pro wrestling school and started my dream: to be a professional wrestler! I've been with it ever since. : ) [/color] LIZZY BORDEN:[/color] (Dismissing the critics who thought it was too raw and Xtreme to include her in a Death Match at “CITY of CHAMPIONS”) Those reality shows, where people eat bugs and shit: That's disgusting! How can you watch it? But I watch it. It's the same with what we do - people are shocked by it, but they watch it. ALEXXIS NEVAEH: You know the game, drama never ends and haters are all the same. They smile to your face and spit on your name. [/color] _______________________________________________________________[/center]

"KNOW the LEDGE main event" (Tag Team Elimination Match) [/size][/color] quote: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TEAM CENA (John Cena, DX Triple H, Evan Bourne & Mil Mascaras) Versus DIAMOND DYNASTY (Buddy Rogers, Wade Barrett, Ted Dibiase Jr & Bobby Heenan) Elimination Tag Match
The Diamond Dynasty – Buddy Rogers, Bobby Heenan, Ted Dibiase and NXT Season 1 vet Wade Barrett stormed BCCW, en masse, about 3 months ago and haven't looked back since. They took out Evan Bourne, they took out DX Triple H-McMahon, and they've been doing everything they can to make life hell for John Cena. What's the ultimate goal for the Diamond Dynasty? How exactly does their behavior threaten the very existence of BCCW? None of that's exactly clear, but fans have bought into it, and the result is that Cena's quest to assemble a 4-man team has been one of BCCW's hottest issues over the past 4 weeks. DX Triple H has decided he hates the Dynasty, and now he's back for revenge (and providing a little extra sizzle as a special attraction who won't really wrestle much but will provide "veteran leadership"). Bourne & Mascaras are a long-standing tag team who want a piece of them. The elimination rules set this up to (probably) be a showcase for Superman Cena. Diamond Dynasty - for this match to have genuine drama - their entire team probably has to remain intact for as long as possible. And then, it's just a matter of what story they want to tell with Cena. I'll admit it: my curiosity is piqued.
