JOHNNY B SAYS
This is the final cycle in which the managers of the World Tag and World Six-man Champions may choose to receive an engraved plaque instead of 15 free matches. From now on, the prizes for these titles will be $50,000 for each member of the winning team and 15 free matches for their manager. Thanks to everyone who weighed in on this issue!
WORLD, U.S., KING OF THE RING
World Heavyweight Champion
EDGE: Filipino Death Machine (ICL)
Garett Guzman of Nevada; 500; $300,000 + 100 free matches or a real wrestling belt & 50 free matches
"Pinoy Pride!", "Got adobo?", and "ABSOLUT DOMINION" were among the many signs brandished by those gathered to celebrate the IWA World Title victory of Filipino Death Machine. Manager Garett Guzman approached center stage at his home venue, Sin City's MGM Grand Garden Arena, to formally collect on his third IWA World Championship. However, instead of entering the squared circle to address the electric crowd, he simply tossed his signature fedora into the ring and then began to calmly walk away. The alert fans, immediately cognizant of the metaphor and its implications, erupted into deafening cheers, as chants of "EDGE! EDGE! EDGE!" resonated throughout.
