GDWA becomes WISE; Sierra Browne defends the Universal Championship against Bloody Mary in a best 2 of 3 falls match.
Ed: Welcome to the final GDWA's final PPV, "Grand Dragon Glory." Tonight, we will crown three new champions one way or the other. We will see a Triangle/Ladder match to determine the new Cruiserweight Champion. It'll be Rachel Edwards, Maggie McGuire and "Officer" Order in that match. We'll also have a Four Way Dance, with Ironwoman rules. The person to make the most falls in 30 minutes will win the match and become the first North American Heritage Champion. In that match, we'll see Amanda Knight, Sarah Summers, Heidi Leick and Andrea Chandler going at it, with a special guest referee in Daisy Butterfly. And finally, we'll see for the World Championship... current champion, Sierra Browne, will take on Bloody Mary with a special guest referee and as announce last week, it will be the best 2 of 3 falls. Predictions?
Sam: I gotta go with Order, as much as it pains me, for the Cruiserweight belt, Andrea for the Heritage belt and my girl, Sierra to keep the World Title.
Sonya: I'm gonna have to disagree with Sam on all but one. I do see "Officer" Order taking the Cruiserweight title, but I see Sarah Summers taking the North American Heritage Championship, and Bloody Mary will finally get her due, as she will beat Sierra Browne for the World Title.
Ed: Well, before we go to action... let's bring out the woman who is making this all possible... here is the President of the GDWA... please welcome, Heather Chandler!
HEATHER CHANDLER
["December" by Collective Soul begins to play as Heather Chandler makes her way to ringside. She carries a clipboard, as she steps into the ring and accepts the mic from Ed, as the trio files out of the ring, taking their places up in the 'Crow's Nest'.]
Heather: Hello, Portland! Are you ready for some great GDWA action?
Heather: Glad to hear it! We've some announcements to get out of the way at this time, so if you'll bear with us for just a moment, I think you'll find this worthwhile.
Heather: First, tonight starts a new era in the history of Grand Dragon Wrestling Alliance. As previously announced, tonight brings one chapter of the GDWA to a close. But, that does not mean that we are done here. In fact, tonight starts a new beginning. If you'll pay attention to the video wall at this time....
Heather: We've had three new titles made. Sierra Browne will be the last ever GDWA World Champion, and the winners of the titles tonight, will be given the brand new WISE Championship belts. Also in the works, the championship committee is working on putting together a Co-Operative Championship tournament for the near future. Wrestlers interested will want to find themselves a tag team partner.
Heather: The first PPV for WISE will be held at the Meadowlands Arena in Baltimore, MD on May 15. It's going to be called, "Crime Spree 1999: Justifiable Homicide" and it'll feature a match known as "Caged Fury". Here's how the match works:
1] Two rings are set up side by side, and a steel cage surrounds the entire setup. There is about a 4 foot way around the ring so you can be out of the ring, and still be inside the cage.
2] Participating wrestlers draw numbers and they will enter the ring in consecutive order by their chosen numbers. The wrestlers who draw numbers one and two must enter the cage first. They'll battle for a five-minute interval. After that five-minute interval, a buzzer will sound and number 3 will enter the cage, and every two minutes thereafter, another wrestler will enter the cage.
3] Until all involved wrestlers enter the cage, there can be /no/ eliminations. Once all have entered the cage, then the elimination process can begin. Pinfall, submission or referee's decision will determine an elimination.
4] The winner is the last person in the cage, and that winner will receive a shot at the WISE Champion during the August PPV, "Founder's Day Tradition." Heather: The main event will be for the WISE World Championship in a "Queen of the Hill" match, to be fought inside a steel cage. We will announce the rules for this match, and the number one contender for this match in the next few weeks. During "Crime Spree", the wrestlers of WISE will be allowed to let their hair down and become as violent as they want to be. It will not be a pretty night in WISE, but I guarantee you that it will be a night of hardcore action, that you won't normally see in WISE. "Crime Spree" will be a most violent night, you can guarantee it. There you have it! It's time to keep the tradition moving forward in a brand new way. Let's get started with some PPV action!
Spud: At this time, I have a special announcement. After many years with the GDWA, I feel it's best to announce my retirement from the sport as a ring announcer.
Spud... you see, I've been promoted to Vice President of Operations here at WISE!
Spud: It's my privilege to introduce to you my replacement here at the announce position ... ladies and gentlemen ... please give a roaring GDWA/WISE welcome to... Christine Donahue!!
Christine: Portland Oregon ... WISE is /in/ /the/ /house!/
Christine: Then LET THE GAMES BEGIN!!!
HANNAH BLUE
Hannah: "It's only been a few minutes since we fought, Maggie, but I've just got to reiterate what I said to you when you kindly checked on my welfare after forcing me to submit in our match... You see, I feel it is my duty to tell everyone about that same phrase I somehow found myself repeating to you when you raised my arm high to the fans in a gesture of true sportsmanship..."
Hannah: "...Thank you...Thank you and congratulations. You were a worthy winner in our encounter, and I look forward to maybe locking up with you again someday. You have the attitude and grace of a true Champion, my friend, and I wish you nothing but the best of luck in the upcoming Triple Threat Ladder Match for the GDWA Cruiserweight Title."
Hannah: "Speaking of the Grand Dragon Glory PPV...I've just found out that I am to be on that very card, facing Jennifer Grier in a match that will decide the Number One Contender for the aforementioned Cruiserweight Belt... Whomever the Champion may be."
Hannah: "Jennifer, fate has seen fit to throw us together in a battle that will no doubt be a defining moment for us both in our respective careers. For the victor, the reward will be a chance to realize a dream that we hold...The chance to earn the prestige and respect that only gold can supply..."
Hannah: "...For the defeated, it marks a return to the bottom of the spectrum, and the daunting task of ascending back into contention. Jennifer, up until recently, I was emotionally trapped in that very pit of dismal resignation and, with all due respect..."
Hannah: "...I'm NOT returning there anytime soon. Be ready Grier, because I will be..."
CONTENDER'S MATCH: HANNAH BLUE VS. JENNIFER GRIER
Christine: This match is scheduled for one fall, and will determine the number one contender to the WISE Lightweight Championship. Introducing first....
, she still moves to the metal barrier to her right to slap hands with the appreciative fans that loudly greet her arrival. During her ascent of the steel ring steps, Hannah whips off the aforementioned T-shirt to reveal a modest sports bra that is the same shade as her leggings.]
Christine: She weighs in at 128 pounds ... here is Hannah... Blue!
Christine: And her opponent....
["Jump" from Van Halen begins, as Jen Grier steps out from behind the curtain, and the crowd explodes in jeers. Dressed in her usual tight blue jean shorts and tied down red shirt, she looks to the crowd with almost a sly grin. She slowly walks down the aisle as she stops halfway, grinning at the booing crowd as she rubs her hands together. She finally makes her way into the ring.]
Ed: The winner of this match will take on the new Lightweight Champion during WISE's first Catfight, so this is a very critical match in both competitors' career.
Sam: I've got my money on Jennifer Grier. She's pretty ticked off as some of the more recent decisions from the referees here in the league.
*Ding**Ding*
Ed: Both women circling one another, and Blue offering her hand to Grier. Grier looking surprised by the confidence of the rookie wrestler.
Mutt: Yeah, and she only hesitated a moment before slapping Blue's hand away. Grier's not ready to trust anyone.
Sonya: Collar and elbow tie up and Blue with the weight advantage. Side headlock takedown.
Ed: Both of these women are high flyers, either one could pull off a win here.
Mutt: But Jen's got some serious mental problems, she'll be the more dangerous of the two.
Sonya: Jen may have the inches but Hannah has the cooler of the heads tonight. It could either way, Sam.
Ed: Blue is moving in and another Collar and elbow tie up. Grier is backing her into a corner…and the ref calls for a break.
Mutt: Grier with a knee lift to the stomach. Go Jen! This is my kind of action!
Sonya: The more these women hurt, the better you like it, Sam. What are you thinking?
Mutt: Hey, you want the fame, you gotta pay the price.
Ed: Grier with some hard right jabs to the head and Blue is dazed. An Irish whip to the far corner and Grier is going to the side ropes.
Mutt: Blue hits hard and Grier comes crashing in with a HARD reverse elbow to the head. A hip toss out of the corner and Grier is going into the side ropes.
Sonya: Grier bouncing off as Blue gets to
