HALL OF FAME INDUCTEES -- engraved plaque

Helen Clair of Washington

ROTU: Wraith (BOL) 1,363-358-80, $3,334,600 *18
At a major press conference where Johnny B was promoting all the different leagues and some of the high profile groups within the IWA, the infamous BOL superstar, Wraith, walked up to the podium with his typical arrogance and completely interrupted the program.

"Anyone who knows of the Black Ops League knows who the Riders of the Underworld are. Our stable has dominated and ruled over the BOL from its inception. We have several mausoleums stuffed with gold, and a good portion of it has my name all over it: back-to-back State championships, back-to-back Imagimania wins -- including the 25th anniversary -- the coveted League Triple Crown, and more tag and regional gold than the standard human mind could comprehend. When I first came to the surface from the bowels of the Underworld, I used to say, 'So it is written, so it shall be,' and I was right. I have reached every goal set and I have stomped the ever-lovin' gargoyle grease out of every opponent that I have faced. My biggest goal was to Purge the Souls of the unworthy and take the Gold; I have done it. Now, it is time to enjoy the riches I have rightfully earned, and I leave ROTU in the very capable hands of my mentor and stablemate, Widowmaker."

In a very uncharacteristic move, Wraith turned to Johnny B and offered his hand. "Thanks, man. It's been one heck of a ride!" After shaking hands, the tattooed warrior turned and quietly walked away.
