HALL OF FAME INDUCTEES

A SCANDALOUS DOMINATION, INC. EVENT:
The Retirement of The Crucifier

After NEVER missing a cycle and garnering 1,037 wins, 443 losses, 122 draws, and 20 stars, SDI's enforcer has come to the conclusion that his extensive IWA career must now come to a close. He started off in the early '90s in the Gut Buster League, and then moved to the BBL for a short stint before leaving the wrestling business due to a family tragedy and his re-dedication to the worship of Death. This was not to be the end of his career, however, as SDI's former president and newest Hall-of-Famer, Platinum Chanel, convinced "Cruce" to return to the IWA in 2005, where he entered the HTL and immediately won its Eastern title. He later returned to the BBL for a phenomenal run, after which he competed in the SHL, APL, ABL, and finally the ASL. He is also the only man that CEO Jason P. Brass VII would allow to take over SDI in times of trouble and reform it into the Death and Darkness Worshippers (DADW) to topple the opposition. Throughout his time as one of the most feared competitors to ever enter the squared circle, The Crucifier has claimed one IWA-wide Atlantic Championship, three league titles, four TV titles, and 26 regional titles.

As he concludes his career, The Crucifier had the following remarks: "For almost 20 years, my heart has been filled with hatred, darkness, and rage. I left professional wrestling in 1992 after the death of my father/manager, Blood, and my brother were killed in a car accident. I have always been a Death worshipper, but when my only two family members died, I was lost, so I retreated into my worship for 13 years. For 13 years I lived alone with my sorrow and pain, until I received that call from President Platinum in 2005. Aside from a shot at superstardom once more, riches untold, and the chance to do what I love most in this world, the main thing Platinum offered me that made me return to the IWA was the promise of a new family. Scandalous Domination, Incorporated has been my family for 5 years, and I have done everything in my power to protect them fiercely as their enforcer. With SDI... I found purpose. Now that I have claimed my rightful place in the IWA Hall of Fame, the rage in my soul is lifted, because I now feel like I have made my father and brother proud. On top of that, my idol, the man that I patterned myself after, The Undertaker, spoke at my induction ceremony. There was nothing more that I could ask for. It has been an honor to give the fans an object of hatred for so many years. Thank you all! To all of my former competition... I will see you in your nightmares. To my SDI family: JPB7, Stone, Nairobi, and Platinum... you are the only people on Earth that I love. Now, it's time for 'The Night Terror' to continue my in-ring legacy at the D.A.D.W. School of Heel Wrestling Arts that will open in Egypt a year from now at the end of my sabbatical. The Monster lives! SDI or DIE!!!"

(Our congratulation go out to Sirree A. Raysor of North Carolina, who will receive an engraved plaque for managing The Crucifier's career so adeptly.)

WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION

Chad LaBombard of Michigan earned his choice of either 100 free matches or a real wrestling belt and 50 free matches for managing Æ: Kid Extreme (BWL) to the top of the imaginary wrestling world! Kid's strategy was worth a perfect 501 points.

U.S. CHAMPION

This $60,000 prize was awarded to Æ: Shawn S. Spivey (FSL), who wrestles under the watchful eye of Anthony Rodriguez from Alabama! Anthony gets to decide between an engraved plaque and 25 free matches as his reward for helping Shawn successfully use point flow against CAST: "Pretty Boy" Preston Quinn (CFL), PSY: Mystery in the Mask (SAL), Æ: Mademan Sonny Fingers (OTL), and CAST: Mr. Hyde (NBL). Each grappler had a perfect total of 501 points!

KING OF THE RING

When we added up the values of the holds at positions 3, 4, 6, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 14 in the strategy of every battle royal winner, it became clear that previous Cruiserweight Champion Rich Von Bruiser (UEL) was the most deserving of this crown! He had an unbeatable 273-point KOTR total, and 500 points overall. His manager, Matt Fugate of Ohio, gets to choose either an engraved plaque or 25 free matches as his prize. Hold positions 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, 13, and 15 were used to determine the regular league battle royal outcomes.

AMERICAN CHAMPION

Michael Drake of New York claimed this title as his own, using Æ: Starman (SAL) to win it! He will receive 10 free matches for formulating his wrestler's perfect 501-point strategy.

METROPOLITAN CHAMPION

Keith A. Maple of Ohio held onto this coveted belt, keeping it under CAST initials for the third consecutive cycle! Mr. Controversy did the dirty work, using his perfect 501-pointer to great effect.

Nice work, Sly! CAST: Mean Mike Eaves (DIL) of Mississippi took home the Steel accolade with his perfect 501-pointer. In the Gold Federation, the 25 free matches went to Steven M. Shotliff of Minnesota, who coached CAST: Dudley Smiley (FSL) to a win over stablemate Michael "Tank" Schaffer (CWL). Each had 501 points.
