          The IWA Specialty Championships have returned just in time to help us celebrate our 35th anniversary! Some of the titles are brand new this year, thanks to a suggestion from manager Kenneth Plasse. We kept the 15 most popular from the last decade but, sadly, the Hair vs. Hair title didn't make the cut. Look inside your envelope or on our website for the entry form!

          Gutbuster (GWL) 1,140-123-25, *13, $2,862,900 
          GWL Commissioner Oz Simmons takes the podium: "It is my esteemed pleasure to announce the induction of one of the greatest Global Wrestling phenoms in professional wrestling into the IWA Hall of Fame. When we signed him, we never knew the kind of impact he would have. He rose to the top of the GWL after having successful runs in the ASL, JDL, and AOL, but he never found his, dare I say, groove in those other leagues. The very first cycle he arrived, he won the Battle Royal, his first out of the nine he would eventually win over the course of two years in the GWL, which gained him the nickname 'King of Battle Royals.' This past year, he stepped into the Original Battlecade to face a fierce foe in a steel cage match, and would be victorious. He enters the Hall of Fame as one of the fastest-rising stars that had many more years ahead of him. Thank you for making the GWL the best. Now without further eloquence, the man of the hour, Big Muskie Bucket, Ohio's favorite son, Hall-of-Famer Gutbuster!" 
          "Standard American" by Gunnar & The Grizzly Boys plays as Gutbuster walks out to the podium. The crowd in attendance gives him a standing ovation. The camera pans across the crowd. Chuck Woolery, Wink Martindale, Bob Barker, Superstar Anthony Cassidy, The American War Veteran, Really Tall Jim, Daredevil Don Williams, and several others from the GWL, past and present, are seen throughout the crowd. Gutbuster shakes the hand of the commissioner, then takes a moment to soak in all the cheers. A list of his accomplishments scrolls on the screen overhead: 9-time Battle Royal Champion (GWL), 3-time League Champion (GWL), 4-time Television Champion (GWL), 9-time Regional Champion (GWL), Tag & Six-man Champion on multiple occasions (GWL, AOL, JDL), 2019 Specialty Champion -- Buried Alive & Hangman, and 2020 State Champion -- Texas & Oklahoma. The music fades. 
          Gutbuster: "Thank you, Commissioner Simmons. My pedigree speaks for itself. Not only have I proven to myself that I can achieve anything, I have given the fans something worth cheering for. I have taken on some of the toughest individuals to ever step foot in the squared circle -- I'm looking at you, Aaron Hole, haha. It was not that long ago that Aaron tore the house down, night after night. There was that one night in Cheyenne after a brutal battle that we had to be carried out of the ring. That was a good night. You were a tough, tough opponent to beat, but I was undaunted and never gave up. I think he hated me more for not quitting than pinning him. We had some great matches and made some great memories along the way. It was a little over three years ago that I started my IWA career in the All Star League, the premier league in all of the IWA, then and now. Commissioner Hollywood Hamilton gave me a try-out, and even though I wasn't very successful then, he saw something in me. I thank him for giving me the opportunity to wrestle in the ASL. I soon found myself seeking out other territories to expand my wrestling skills. Traveling to the Jade Dragon League and then the American Outlaw League, I sharpened my skills. Facing anyone and everyone. I had some mild success in those territories, and it attracted the attention of the GWL. Commissioner Simmons traveled to Big Muskie on my days off, and we discussed what I could bring to the GWL table. It sounded like a good deal, so I signed and started on this journey to be the best of the best. It was an uphill battle as soon as I stepped into the ring, and I never regretted it. I won the GWL Battle Royal 9 times, and the fans started calling me the King of the Battle Royals. I traded the Global Heavyweight Championship with J C T on more than one occasion to be a 3-time champion. I walked into the 2019 Specialty tournament as an underdog and won the Buried Alive and Hangman's Championships. No one thought I could compete, but I was out to prove them wrong. As 2020 began, I determined to myself to enter State Wrestling, all 50 states, even the ones I didn't exactly care for -- haha -- and leave with one State Championship. I doubled down and came away the 2020 Texas and Oklahoma State Champions. In 2019, I faced down a walking shag rug, an imitation of the real Saskatchewan Sasquatch, at Battle Riot inside a steel cage, and beat him like a dirty rug during spring cleaning. His partners in crime attempted to even the odds -- yeah, that didn't work out for those Philistines, as I left them beaten and broken in the middle of the ring that night. During my time in the GWL, my favorite opponent was none other than Superstar Anthony Cassidy. He made me step my game up, made me a better wrestler. It was always the big showcase showdown every time we stepped into the squared circle. His manager, the late, great Anthony Ibrahim, is truly missed. A moment of silence, please." 
          The crowd stands and bows their heads in reverence for the late manager, as a picture of him appears on the big screen. 
          Gutbuster: "Thank you, all. My last opponent and the future of the GWL, Daredevil Don Williams -- I have faced a lot of men, men that could have broken every bone in my body. You nearly accomplished that feat at In Your House: Cruisin' for a Bruisin' in Oxford, Mississippi. I know that after that night, I am leaving the GWL in great hands. I want to thank all those who I faced in the past, and thank the fans for their unwavering support of this Standard American. I leave you tonight and enter the IWA Hall of Fame a better man for being a part of the greatest game ever to be played in all of history. Remember one last thing... ride for the brand, and no whammies! Good night, God bless, and we love you, Ohio!" 
          The music starts to play as the crowd rises to their feet and give Gutbuster an ovation. IWA President Johnny B walks out of the back with the IWA Hall of Fame plaque in his hand. He shakes Gutbuster's hand, and hands him the plaque as the ceremony telecast concludes with clips of Gutbuster's more memorable matches and victories. 
           
            The Murk Monster (GWL) 1,043-142-29, *9, $1,925,500 
            "Ladies and gentlemen, may I have your attention, please? My name is Doctor Diabolico, and I am the executive shareholder of the Obsidian Oil and Land Exploration Corporation, deed owner of the Snakehead Glades Research Edifice, birthplace of Hall-of-Famer The Murk Monster. Greetings, bipedal, knuckle-dragging, cave-dwelling troglodytes, it has been an exquisite journey to this moment. Many of you count your blessings that you have not had the displeasure to face my seven-foot ten-inch monster from the swamps. Many wished to ignore my misshapen friend in hopes that he would shamble his way out of the IWA, leaving a toxic path of slime in his exit, never to be heard from or seen again. That was not the case, however, as you witness before your very eyes that he has obliterated the meager competition in the LSL, the LWL, and the GWL. All came to fear my grotesque monster, begging the powers that be to remove the prophetic thorn of miscreation from their side, in fear that they may succumb to its undeniable power. Fear is a great motivator, and fear they did, indeed. Indeed, they should fear the grotesque bog creation -- rightly so, they should fear -- for no man can face the macabre mutant and remain unscathed! There are several quiet individuals in the locker rooms throughout the IWA tonight, huddling in fear of the uncanny, reliant monster -- fear- and panic-stricken that they may be called upon to touch the nightmarish monstrosity once again, and know their deepest, darkest fears reside in the alumni of the IWA forevermore. The helpless, bipedal, carbon mouth-breathers exhale a sigh of relief now, as The Murk Monster takes its rightful place among the hallowed Hall-of-Famers -- the only monster to have ever been inducted into the fabled IWA Hall of Fame, I might add. No other monster or mutant has ever graced the HOF. It is not my intention to be fulsome, but I must confess that I covet the small braincases that populate the IWA. The unremarkable macaca fascicularis -- with no visible forehead, distinctive brow ridge, prominent canine teeth, longer and hairier arms than your other bipedal carbon cousins, a large, zygomatic arch -- enthralling for a slightly upright bipedal carbon. I am needing new test subjects to further my research, and my dominance of the IWA. For now, though, the hour of my destiny has arrived, victory has been achieved through science manipulation. The Murk Monster joins the Hall of Fame! Hahahahahahahahahahahaha!" 
         
       
        
      WORLD, U.S., KING OF THE RING 
      
        World Champion 
        
          WRSTLING: Marty Mush (HAL) 
          Zach Gargus of Des Moines, Iowa; 501; $250,000 + 75 free matches or a real wrestling belt & 25 free matches, 10 free matches for HAL managers next cycle 
          The scene opens to a stretch limo pulling up outside the Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland, Ohio. As is typical with Cleveland, it's a gray, overcast late evening. The rear door to the limo opens and out steps the one, the only, Franchise Zach Gargus, along with Marty Mush, the new IWA World Heavyweight Champion! Gargus and Mush are approached by ace IWA reporter Buzz Brewster. 
          Buzz: "Franchise and Mush, it's an honor to have both of you here tonight!" 
          Gargus: "Save it, Buzz. We'll address the IWA geeks in the ring, later tonight!" 
          Gargus shoves Buzz and walks off with Mush, the IWA World Heavyweight title over Gargus' shoulder. Later in the evening, after returning from commercial, Gargus and Mush are already in the ring. 
          Gargus: "You know, it's been nearly 30 years of imaginary WRSTLING for ol' Gargus. In recent years, they've all said, 'Gargus, you are washed up. Gargus, you can't manage your wrestlers to championships anymore. Gargus, the game has passed you by.' Most of the same guys saying these things weren't around when ol' Gargus won his FIRST IWA World Heavyweight title in 1998. Most of the same guys saying these things would have been destroyed and sent home to their mom's shoulder to cry during the height and boom period of the IWA. Most of these same guys think winning 200 World Six-man titles in a row is an accomplishment. Most of the same guys saying these things are complete and utter jokes. None of you have shown up in any of ol' Gargus' leagues and backed up your mouths. None of you have the guts to actually come face to face with ol' Gargus, 'cause you know as long as ol' Gargus has been in this game, he's been a DOMINANT in-league force. At this time, I wanna call out Johnny B to the ring, 'cause I have something to get off my chest." 
          Johnny B's music hits, and he enters the ring. 
          Gargus: "Johnny B, time and time again, ol' Gargus has paid the bills and come to the rescue when you got lost and tried to change the direction of IWA programming. It's been 30 years of holding your hand and directing YOU. It's been 200 days a year on the road, away from my family, to provide the fans with a quality Imaginary Wrestling program, week in and week out. It's time the next generation steps up and takes over, 'cause ol' Gargus is retiring!" 
          Johnny B: "Gargus don't do this. We need you! Who's going to replace your thought, knowledge, and insight? No one knows the vast history of this game like you do!" 
          Gargus has since moved to standing behind Johnny B. Gargus clobbers Johnny B in the head with the IWA World Heavyweight title. The camera shows Johnny B on the mat with a gash on his forehead. A pool of blood is forming in the ring. 
          Gargus: "You silly old man! Did you really think the #1 star in the IWA was going to just walk off into the sunset like that? No, sir! This is a reminder to you and all the scrubs who think they matter in the IWA: there's only one true Alpha, and you're looking at him!" 
          Gargus spits on Johnny B's face and exits the ring with Mush and the IWA World Heavyweight title as the show goes to commercial.
