HALL OF FAME INDUCTEES -- engraved plaque

Keith A. Maple of Ohio

Fritz Von Damme (MRL) 1,004-327-60, $3,476,300 *51
During a recent house show, as he was exiting the limo, Fritz took an awkward fall to the pavement. He was quickly rushed to a nearby hospital, and it was learned that he had broken a hip. At the doctor's request, Fritz has decided to call it a career. He will go down as one of the greatest wrestlers to ever lace up a pair of boots, and will continue to accompany his boys to the ring whenever possible.

 

WORLD, U.S., KING OF THE RING

World Champion

EDGE: The Barbarian Boris Sidirov (DDL)
Mike Dorsett of New York; 500; $300,000 + 100 free matches or a real wrestling belt & 50 free matches

The IWA Championship Coliseum is filled to capacity as the NEW IWA World Champion, Boris Sidirov, holds the championship belt high overhead to a cheering crowd. He walks to his corner and is handed his signature bottle of Stolichnaya Vodka. He takes a huge pull, walks to the center of the ring where his still unconscious opponent lies, and pours some on him, bringing a round of boos from the stunned crowd. The Barbarian seems energized by the jeers, and continues to march around the ring, drinking from the bottle and yelling in Russian at fans at ringside.

Suddenly, the jumbotrons go to static and the music cuts off. A few seconds later, the feed on the jumbotrons comes back to reveal IWA legend The Illustrious Ishtar at his palatial estate, sitting in a high back chair and holding a glass of wine, as IWA officials rush to figure out what is happening. The Illustrious Ishtar turns to the camera and begins to speak:

"First, congratulations to my newest champion, Boris Sidirov! (The Barbarian pauses his tirade with a fan at ringside to raise his bottle up towards the screen and yell something in Russian.) I would have come to congratulate him in person, but the so called 'security' the IWA has placed at their Coliseum has been unacceptable in the past. And as it turns out, with my unmatched training and managerial abilities, my presence tonight wasn't needed! In fact, as I relaxed here in the comfort of my home, my grapplers brought to me the one thing that has eluded me over my Illustrious career, holding all three World Championships at the same time! And I would like to dedicate this Triple Crown, not to my stable, or to my six champion grapplers holding World titles, but to all the overmatched and outclassed managers and wrestlers that have made this accomplishment possible. To you, I say thank you."

Ishtar raises his glass to the camera and with that, the camera feed returns to show Boris celebrating and spitting vodka into the crowd as security attempts to remove him from the ring.
