Charlie Watkins - Hey there everyone.  We are here in Detroit, Michigan a day early to celebrate what has become of the SWL.

Terry Hogan - The first year of existence of the SWL went fairly well.  Except for a work stoppage because of lack of funds, everything has gone pretty smoothly.  We've had our ups and downs, and we are here to award people for their efforts.

Charlie Watkins - It's been a great weekend already here in Detroit as the fans seem psyched for Prevailing Justice coming up in less than 24 hours.  There have been activities going on all around the arena today which is probably why they have showed up here at all.

Terry Hogan - They came to see the SWL's stars.  It really shows how great our fans are.  But without further adeu, let's give the fans what they want.... the STARS!

("Rebel Yell" by Billy Idol starts to play as Brian Williams walks out.  The crowd gets very loud as it's been a while since Williams has been seen on camera.  He smiles as he takes in the cheers and begins walking down to the ring.  In the center of the ring is a podium where Brian ends up after he enters the ring.  He adjusts the mic before he starts to talk.)

Brian Williams - I just want to say thanks to all our fans for supporting us in all our ventures.  When we went down at around this time last year, many of you stuck with us in anticipation of our return.  And we came back.  Even better than before.  So tonight, ONE DAY before our second Prevailing Justice, we are rewarding the people who made the SWL what it is today.  I'm not going to do a lot of talking because it should be about the wrestlers and what they have done.  I don't want to steal their spotlight so we will just get right to it.  So I guess we will start with the Most Improved Wrestler Award.  Remember, these were voted on by the wrestlers of the SWL.

This man has made his mark on the SWL slowly but surely in the last couple months.  He had a memorable feud with Tommy Havock which culminated in him winning the Spotlight Title.  After losing that belt, he decided to move on to bigger things and is now chasing after the Quasar Title.  He is the man that you all voted.....

[The lights dim as Methodmans - Release Yo'delf [Prodigy Mix] echos throughout the arena. As the base cuts in 'Luscious' Lawrence Rhodes steps out through the curtain. Rhodes has on a long well worn brown leather trench coat. The coat covers a pair of indigo jeans and classic white Reebok trainers. Rhodes smiles out into the arena as a yellowish spotlight illuminates him. He begins to move down to the ring, slapping a few hands before ... he pauses and then stops. The lights are raised again as Rhodes raises his arms in the air to a loud crowd pop. Rhodes surveys the arena again before shaking out his houlders and then moving down towards the ring. He moves around the ring, again slapping a few hands and jawwing with some fans before climbing the steel steps and vaulting the top rope. Rhodes moves around the ring bouncing off of the ropes before moving towards Brian Williams who is standing in the middle of the ring. Rhodes looks at Williams and extends a hand. The pair shake hands to another good crowd pop. Lawrence Rhodes then moves around the ring again ... he points out into the crowd before banging his clenched fist onto the middle of hs chest .... he then raises that fist to the sky.]

Rhodes - [Taking the mic from the podium] Do you know what ?? ... You have to be some sort of crazy mixed up kid to do this sort of thing night after night. To come out here and face the likes of the Cavalier ... [a good crowd pop] ... Grinnin [crowd cat call] ... and Billy Rock [the crowd gets to it's feet and begin a Billy Rock chant] ain't easy, and when everyone of those guys in the back wants to make an impression ... well it darn well ain't easy.

[Rhodes smiles as he begins to pace around.]

Rhodes - There's a hell of a lot of people I wanna thank, I could bore you silly by just reeling of a list ... but tonight ain't about that. You see this award means a hell of a lot to me. To be recognised by you fans [Rhodes points out around the arena] and by the guys back there [Rhodes now motions to the entrance] brings a ... well, it brings a tear to my eye. Lawrence Rhodes has spent a few years working towards his goal. I've wrestled, wrestled again ... and then wrestled some more. But the SWL is the first federation that saw some potential. It was the first federation that said Lawrence Rhodes, get your limey ass over here and show us what you can do.

[Rhodes moves over towards Brian Williams and thrusts out his hand again. The pair share another handshake.]

Rhodes - And that's what I did. [Rhodes pauses] You see I left behind my family ... my friends ... my very existence and came to Syracuse to show what I could do. I packed up all that I had, in one goddam suitcase and stand before you now.

[Rhodes moves towards the ropes and leans back on them.]

Rhodes - But where am I going with this tale you ask. And you may well ask. Because I'd like to dedicate this award to my good friend ... who sadly isn't with us any more ... Louis Angel. Louis and I grew up in South London, we were inseperable. It was Louis who wanted to be a wrestler. A wrestler in England, don't make me laugh. So Lawrence Rhodes went along to keep him company. It was Louis Angel that wanted to go to  America ... to be someone. So Lawrence Rhodes stood back and watched him go. It was Louis Angel that put his life at risk night after night whilest Lawrence Rhodes watched from afar ... too afraid to sign a professional contract. It was Louis Angel that lost his battle to live whilest Lawrence Rhodes stood at his bed side ... not able to do a thing.

[Rhodes seemingly wipes away a tear]

Rhodes - But from that moment ... it's like I have been reborn. It's like Louis Angel is fulfilling his dream through me ... 'The Luscious One' in America kicking ass. So I want to thank all those people who see fit to complement me ... all those people who see fit to honour me ... and I will tell you this, 'Luscious' Lawrence Rhodes ain't even started yet.

[Rhodes raises his hands to the air after tossing the mic back to Brian Williams.]

Brian Williams - I'm glad someone recognizes what I have done here.  I've put together what I think is a downright good wrestling organization.  I'm glad people appreciate it.  But let's now bring out the

(Johnny Spades walks up to the podium dressed in a black tux with his long brown hair braided back. He smiles as he accepts the award and shakes Brian Williams' hand. He then turns to the crowd and acknowledges the crowd with a mile and small kind of shy wave.)

Spades - Wow. I never would of thought that i would be standing here today accepting this award with so many great newcomers in
SWL. Guys like Jason Blake, Tom Knight, Todd Gamble and so many others i thought for sure one of those guys would win. But i guess not I
guess those 500 vote sheets i wrote out myself worked cause i guess the voting commitee never realized that they were all the same handwriting But serously i would like to thank those of you who voted for me and to the SWL for giving me the chance to show my stuff in SWL. If it wasn't for guys like Brian Williams, Tom Knight, Grinnin, the SWL staff and the other guys in the back the SWL wouldn't be as great as it is. Everyone always goes out and gives 100% and if it wasn't for that i wouldn't be standing up here today. In closing i would like to give specials thanks to God, my family, my mom and to Brian Willaims for giving me a contract and to Grinnin for helping me not only with my moves but with my mic skills as well. I would also like to again
thank you all in the back for never bitching and moaning about cards and such and always giving your all in the ring.   I look forward to the future wars we will have in the ring and you can bet Johnny Spades will only get better and highlight the crowd or bust his grapefruits trying. Thank you very much.

(Spades acknowledges the crowd again as he walks off the stage.)

Brian Williams - You know, I think that is the least I have heard from Spades since I have been here.

(He laughs to himself as he recomposes himself.)

Brian Williams - But to get away from this monotony of just giving out awards, we are giving you all a special showing of the

Anna Dea - Ladies and gentlemen, it is time for tonight’s main event. This is a special match for two men that, well, hate each other. This is a Last Man Standing Match. Falls count anywhere in the building and the only rule is that the winner must be on his feet to answer the final bell toll. Any wrestler can ask for the count at anytime and there are NO disqualifications. Fans, take a look on the jumbotron as we play a video tribute to the longest running feud in the SWL.

[The jumbotron flickers to life as "Highway to Hell" by AC/DC begins to play. It shows clips from the first ever Real/Grinnin match with Bret Real hitting Judgement Day to get the win. Next is a match just after Real won the match and it shows Grinnin smashing a chair over the head of Real and getting disqualified. Next it shows the tainted win that Grinnin won at Back at Last and finally it shows the last match between the two men, with Bret Real once again hitting Judgement Day. Finally it goes back to last week where Grinnin came in at the end of the match to nail Bret Real with the Gobsmacker]

Charlie Watkins - That was just a taste.  There was a much more comprehensive look at their feud earlier in the show.

Anna Dea - Fans, this has been one for the ages and it is now time for them to close the book on this because tonight is truly .... THE FINAL CHAPTER!!!

[The fans start to go berserk and are all cheering Bret Real's name and within moments it has become a chant that is shaking the entire building.]

Anna Dea - Introducing first, YOUR Champion. He stands at 6’6” and weighs 285 lbs. He is the current SWL Spotlight Champion, a former Quasar Champion, and most importantly, the former SWL World Champion. Ladies and gentlemen, coming down the aisle is the SWL's ONLY triple crown winner and a sure lock in for the SWL Hall of Fame. Ladies and gentlemen, here is founder of the Regulators, Bret "The Regulator" Real!!!!!

[The crowd absolutely erupts as the lights go out in the arena and “Bulls on Parade” by Rage Against The Machine begins to play. Bret Real makes his way from the back stage area and stands in the midst of the blue haze of lights and smoke that have filled the entranceway. He is wearing a pear of black Adidas tear-aways and a black Regulators tee shirt with the phrase “We’ll make ya’ famous!” scrawled on the back. Over his left shoulder is his newly acquired Spotlight Title. He pauses for a moment to scan the crowd and then lifts the title from his shoulder and raises it over his head for a nice pop! He then puts it back over his shoulder and makes his way towards the ring all the while slapping hands and accepting congratulatory pats on the back from the fans leaning over the barricades.]

[Once in the ring, the crowd erupts once more as Real raises the Spotlight Title over his head again for all to see. Real takes some time to read some of the signs out in the crowd and even picks out a group of eight shirtless university students up near the nose-bleeds that are doing the “we’re not worthy” bow. They each have a letter spray-painted on their body and spell out R-E-A-L-D-E-A-L. Real points up to them to acknowledge them and they break out of their rehearsed routine and just start jumping all over each other frantically when the in house cameras pick them up and they see themselves up on the screen. Real is passed a microphone from ringside and then makes his way to the center of the ring to speak.]

Bret Real - Oh what a difference a few weeks can make! From standing on the sidelines at the last PPV and not having anyone want to step up and face a “washed up no-hoper”… to winning the one title that has avoided me for so long and forever going down in history as the first ever SWL Triple Crown winner!

(crowd cheers)

Bret Real - (Real pats the Spotlight Title that is now back over his shoulder.) Now that this baby is finally here, it will be a cold day in hell before any one pries it from my hands! The SWL has suffered long enough with Spotlight Chumps that obviously run from title matches almost as fast as they run their mouth! So to all of you hopefuls taking part in the Royal Rumble tonight to face The Real Deal next week, all I can say is… Playtime’s OVER! The original SWL Sheriff is back in town and from now on, business will be taken care of MY way!! You guys want a shot at the title? (Real points to the title with his thumb.) Well here it is. Just prove you’re the best of the REST out there tonight - and we have ourselves a little date next week. Oh… and to you other “also-rans”… Don’t worry, I’ll make you ALL famous in due time. Line up for your title shots ladies ‘cos The Real Deal is here to take on all comers.

[Real stops to flip the belt across his other shoulder and switches the hand in which he holds the microphone as well…]

Bret Real - Speaking of being made famous… “Luscious” Lawrence Rhodes got a good taste of that last week and it seems he liked it quite a bit! So much so that he’s actually gone as far as to challenge yours truly to a Career vs Career match. Rhodes… I’ve got two words for ya… No, not those two words… My two words are YOU’RE ON!! After I send the biggest thorn in my side packing from the SWL for good later tonight, you are next on my hitlist my friend! I don’t know why you’re in such a hurry to leave town, but if that’s what you want… that’s what you’ll get! After all, it’s not like I kicked YOUR ass four times already…

Menacing Voice - NOT SO FAST!!!

[The lights fall down and the first strands of "Sad but True" by Metallica begin to reverberate throughout the arena. The fans react immediately, and violently as they immediately begin to boo and spontaneous chants of "asshole" start randomly throughout the place. The music pauses and as it does a huge pyrotechnic goes off while at the same time several different fireworks displays go off in the four corners of the building and just as the music kicks in, and the flames die down from the front of the entrance, Grinnin steps out and comes to a stop. Just as he stops a final pyro goes off the seems to envelope him in flames for a moment and when those die down Steph steps out and joins him by his side. He is wearing his tradition wrestling attire and nothing else but Steph is wearing black high heel shoes, black fishnet stockings and a thong that shows off her buns. She is also wearing a black transparent shirt with a black sports bra underneath that hugs her body in all the right spots. Grinnin brings his hand to his mouth and starts to speak into the mic he is holding]

Grinnin - Not so fast metamucil boy, you really regular guy. Apparantly all those shots to your head have almost adled your brains like some pathetic out of the playoffs Philadelphia Flyers I could think of. We only fought four times, and you didn’t win all those times. Bret, lets face it, you ain’t ever pinned a 100% healthy and fully prepared Grinnin in your life. You think for one second that you have a chance tonight? I don’t think so. These idiot fans can’t help you. The little group your in can’t help you. Our chump of a president CAN’T HELP YOU. In the end Real .... YOU WILL GET SMACKED!!!!

Bret Real - You come at here with that ho of yours and actually have the audacity to put the whole state of Kentucky to sleep with your little sob story? Why don’t you try telling it to someone who actually gives a crap?!

(Real pauses as the crowd pops to the last comment)

Bret Real - And you know what, Grinnin? Ever since day one, you’ve tried your damnest to put me down by calling me “Regular”… or my favorite, “Metamucil Boy” . Are you trying to tell me you’ve got some constipation problem?

(Crowd laughs and cheers)

Bret Real - Well, after I get done kicking the shit out of your constipated ass tonight you can put all those laxative remedies aside. And Steph, you better be prepared to scrub a little harder when you handwash Grinnin’s underwear ‘cos after tonight, the skidmark you usually find in them is gonna be a little thicker than usual!

(Real tosses his mic aside and motions to Grinnin to enter the ring with both hands. Grinnin rushes to the ring at a flat run, slides in under the bottom rope and is greeted by Bret Real, who was waiting for him. Bret Real lays in a huge round house right to the head of Grinnin. Grinnin replies with a right of his own and immediately the two men are going right for right, left for left until it is Bret Real getting in the first combination that starts to rock Grinnin backwards. Grinnin stumbles back against the ropes and Bet Real grabs him and whips him across to the far ropes wear Grinnin has the presence of mind to grab them and slide out under the bottom rope wear Steph is and he gets a few words from her.]

Terry Hogan - Grinnin is such a smart wrestler. He recognized that Real was starting to get some momentum so he wisely bailed outside to take a breather, slow the match and get some advice from Steph.

Charlie Watkins - Some call it smart, some call it cowardice. Either way you slice it Bret Real is pumped for this match and it shows.

[Grinnin gets done listening to Steph and gets the ref to back Real away from the ropes before once more sliding into the ring himself and getting to his feet. Bret looks intently at Grinnin as the two men circle each other. They lock up and neither seems to get an advantage until it is Real with locking Grinnin into a wrist lock, converting to a hammerlock and from there he drops to one knee, grabs Grinnin behind the leg and executes a modified suplex]

Charlie Watkins - Grinnin appears to be stunned and Real signals to the ref to start the count.

Terry Hogan - Now we see how dumb the Regulator is. The ref hits 2 and already Grinnin is starting to get to his feet. Ain't gonna beat the most notorious man that way.

Charlie Watkins - Never know unless you try though right?

Terry Hogan - Whatever.

[Grinnin starts to get to his feet and and Bret Real resumes his attack with a solid kick to the chest that sends Grinnin down to the canvas. Real bends down and grabs Grinnin's legs, holds them apart, looks out to the crowd and calmly drops head first into Grinnin who sits up in obvious pain and discomfort. Real grabs Grinnin by the hair and brings him to his feet and throws him to the ropes and as Grinnin rebounds it is Bret Real with a tilt-a-whirl suplex that he converts to a back breaker at the end. Bret Real gets to his feet, goes to the ropes and drops a big knee to the head of Grinnin. Real drags Grinnin to his feet again and whips him to the ropes ....]

Terry Hogan - Real with an amateur move here sticks his head down a half second to early and Grinnin makes him pay by grabbing two fistsfuls hair and drives his head into the mat. What a viscious move. I love it!!

Charlie Watkins - I have to admit it, that was a great move and may have turned the tide here.

[Grinnin gets to his feet gives Real a huge boot to the head. Grinnin gets down and puts Real into a sitting head lock and starts to drive a serie of rights to the head of Bret Real. Grinnin stops, drags Bret Real to his feet and whips him to the ropes, goes for a huge clothesline and it is Real who ducks hits the other ropes and Grinnin goes for a kick but Real hits the brakes, catches the foot and now he has Grinnin right wear he wants him. Real spins Grinnin around and as he finishes his circle, Real connects with a clothesline that sends Grinnin back to the mat. Real Grabs Grinnin by the hair, brings him back to his feet an whips him to a turnbuckle and follows in immediatly. As Grinnin hits the corner, Bret Real is right there with a running knee lift to the midsection that nearly breaks Grinnin in half]

Charlie Watkins - Well, a brief flurry for Grinnin is erased as Bret Real is in charge again and these fans are loving it.

Terry Hogan - Fans smans. These idiots also believe that The Kid is a decent champion still when everyone knows that Grinnin is the man.

[The Regulator grabs a handful of Grinnin's hair and starts to ram his face into the top turnbuckle which promts the fans to count along and Bret Real does the full ten and then looks to the people, and does an eleventh for good measure. Grinnin stumpbles out of the corner with a glazed look on his face and Bret Real measures him up for a second then charges at Grinnin and spkes him to the canvas. Real gets up and again signals the ref to begin the count. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, ... and Grinnin starts to to move and gets to a sitting position that breaks the count. Bret Real drags Grinnin to his feet and tosses him over the top rope near the announcers table]

Terry Hogan - You know i hate it when they do that. Everytime that happens our table gets broken and we have to stand the rest of the match with our monitors on the floor.

Charlie Watkins - Your just upset because to the best of my recollection it is Grinnin that always GOES through the table.

Terry Hogan - That might have something to do with it and ... Oh man, here comes Real with Grinnin up on his shoulder.

[Real has Grinnin in a firemans carry and dumps him on the floor infront of the table. Real grabs Grinnin and goes to whip him to a ring post but Grinnin holds on to the wrist of Real, reverses it and it is Bret Real hitting the ring post head first. Grinnin looks a little groggy but manages to wink at Charlie Watkins before stalking over to Real who is slowly getting to his feet. Grinnin grabs Real and whips him to the announcers table and Real crashes into it back first and crumples to the floor again. Grinnin stands there waiting for a second, waiting for Real to get to his feet and when he does he charges him but it is Real ducking dow and he backdrops Grinnin up and through the announcers table and on the way down one of Grinnins boots swings out and clocks Terry Hogan in the head, knocking him off his chair and to the pads below wear he has a glazed look over his face]

Charlie Watkins - Well fans, once more Grinnin tries to use the table and once more he ends up going through it. Whats better i think is that my co-worker is, for the first time ever being quiet. What an amazing thing.

[Real grabs Grinnin and whips him to the ring where Grinnin crashes into it and crumples to the ground again. Real goes to the Grinman, picks him up and rolls him into the ring again. Real follows him into the ring and as he approaches Grinnin, Grinnin reaches up and hits Real with a low blow. Grinnin follows with a right to the head, a rake to the eyes. Grinnin steps to his feet and gives Real a knee to the midsection followed with a knee to the face that knocks Real to his back. Grinnin brings Real to his feet and whips him to the ropes and Grinnin goes for a kick to the midsection and Real blocks, spins Grinnin around and ...]

Charlie Watkins - GOBSMACKER!!!! Bret Real just hit The Gobsmacker on Grinnin and now the ref is beginning his count. On anohter note, here is Terry Hogan back from his nap.

Terry Hogan - Did I just hear you say the Gobsmacker was just hit. Great, no more Bret Real. Where is Grinnin and why is the ref saying he is counting him out?

Charlie Watkins - The ref is at 4, 5 ... What is she doing up there? Steph has climbed onto the ring apron and is calling the ref over. Here comes Bret Real as well and ... OH MY!! She just hit Real over the head with the heel of her shoe and The Regulator is hurt folks. I think she lacerated him over the left eye and now the Grinman is reaching his feet.

Terry Hogan - Grinnin is a GENIOUS!! Using Steph like that to get to Bret Real. Amazing! Lets see what he does with this now.

[Grinnin starts to stomp on the open cut over Real's left eye opening it up wider. Grinnin tosses Real over the top rope and immediatly follows through himself. He grabs a chair and ... WHAM!!! Slams it over the back of Bret Real. Grinnin raises the chair again and again brings it crashing towards the Regulator only this time he hits him in the head. Bret Real crashes to the ground in a sensless heap but Grinnin does not indicate the ref to begin the count. Instead he looks under the ring and finds a tool box that the ring builders must have left. He opens it up and finds .... a hammer. He waves the hammer over his head and walks over to Bret Real and grabs him by the left hand and looks at the camera for a moment ..]

Grinnin - Hey Bret, hope your not left handed cause it's hammertime!!

Charlie Watkins - You don't think he is serious do you?

Terry Hogan - Of course no ... pardon me, he's serious.

Charlie Watkins - Oh my god, he just hit Bret's hand as hard as he could with that hammer. You could hear the bones snapping from here and i think the hand looks deformed already now!

[Bret Real is writhing on the ground in pain now as Grinnin goes over to the ring steps, picks them up and walks back over to Bret Real. Grinnin lifts the steps over his head and then sends it crashing right for Real's head but it is Bret Real rolling away just in time. Grinnin walks over to wear Real is lying prone on the floor and kicks him in the head, then follows with an elbow drop to the back of the neck. Grinnin gets up and goes to retrieve the hammer and this time he starts to measure up the left knee of Bret Real. He swings the hammer and there is an audible crunch as the steel strikes deep into the leg of Bret Real. Grinnin bends down and drags Bret up to his feet and starts to walk him up the entrance ramp continuing to pummel Real as they make there way up. The get to the highest point of the ramp and Grinnin makes a cutting motion across his throat at the edge of the ramp. Grinnin with the kick to the midsection .... ]

Terry Hogan - I love it!! I think he is going to Gobsmacker him off the ramp. That must be fifteen feet down and here it is!!!

Charlie Watkins - NO!!! Bret Real shoved him away and it is Grinnin who plunges the fifteen feet to the concrete below. But there is Steph right behind him and she just shoved him off the ledge. The referee is beginnin to make his count.

[The ref counts 1, 2, 3, 4, Steph gets back to the bottom of the ramp and starts to help Grinnin to his feet. 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 ... Grinnin grabs the ref and breaks the count. He grabs Real and sets him up for a pile drive and hits it and Real’s head leaves a grusome red mark where it strikes the pavement. Grinnin stands astride the chest of Bret Real and starts to send punch after punch to the head of Bret Real opening the cut wider. When he finally stops he drags a mostly unconscious Bret Real to his feet, holds out his hand to Steph who hands him a mic]

Grinnin - Bret Real, now it is time for this to end. Brian Williams, i hope you are paying attention because what is about to happen next could happen to you at any moment. Kid, pay attention because the leader, the heart and soul of the Regulaters is about to be Regulated out of the SWL. For all you newcomers, this is what happens when you cross the MOST NOTORIOUS MAN in the SWL!! Bret Real is not about to just get smacked ... this is going to be a super Gobsmacker and this time he isnt going to get out of it. TIME TO GET SMACKED!!!

[The crowd is booing outragiously now as Grinnin again drags Real up the ramp and up at the top comes Brian Williams and it looks like he is telling Grinnin to stop, that it's over. Grinnin looks at Real, at Williams and gives Williams the finger before giving Bret Real a kick to the midsection, grabbing him by the head and dropping with him the full fifteen feet and hitting the Gobsmacker on the concrete below. Steph is there at the bottom to help Grinnin up who is limping severely but now the crowd has gone silent as Bret "The Regulator" Real is lying on the concrete floor motionless and the EMT crews are already going to his side. Grinnin and Steph limp off as the crowd watches in silence as the EMT's work on Bret Real and now President Williams is also by his side]

Terry Hogan - You know i am a huge fan of Grinnin but this time i think even he went to far on his nemises. This was sick!

Charlie Watkins - Well, it's nice to see that maybe you have a moral or two after all Charlie. Your right though, Grinnin went way to far but you have to give Bret Real his due. He took chairs, two hammer shots and still was able to battle back time and again. And lets face it, before this turned ugly he was really having his way with Grinnin in that ring. Putting on a clinic if you will. Lets just hope that he is going to be alright. Fans, for Terry Hogan, keep reaching for those ...

Terry Hogan - You know what I just realized?

Charlie Watkins - What's that?

Terry Hogan - If Bret Real is leaving the SWL... then that means that Dreamcatcher is our new Spotlight Title by virtue of winning the battle royale earlier in the night.

Charlie Watkins - I think you are right...

[The fans start to explode in cheers as the picture of Bret Real appears on the jumbotron with the EMT's beside him. They are cheering because his right eye appears to be open and his lips are moving as he attempts to answer the questions of the medical staff]

Charlie Watkins - Lets hope this is a good sign folks, for now, keep reaching for those stars.

Brian Williams - If it weren't for all the hard work and effort put forth by all the wrestlers in the SWL, moments like this would never have happened.  One man who displayed this time and time again is voted our

[The crowd erupts as the lights go out in the arena and “Bulls on Parade” by Rage Against The Machine begins to play.  Bret Real makes his way from the back stage area and stands with two fists in the air in the midst of the blue haze of lights and smoke that have filled the entranceway.  He is wearing a pear of black jeans, a white tee shirt and a three-quarter-length black leather jacket.  Even though he has been absent for several months, and despite his slight tan and shorter hair, he looks like he hasn’t changed a bit.

The patented smirk is gone – but instead it is replaced with a grin that goes from ear to ear.  He scans the crowd twice over and makes his way to the ring.  At ringside, he and Anna Dea exchange a peck on the cheek as she hands him the microphone and he takes center stage in the middle of the ring..]

Bret Real - Did you miss me?

[Crowd responds with an overwhelming “YEEAHHH!!”]

Bret Real - Well, that’s still not half as much as I’ve missed you!  (Pop!)  I am very flattered to be receiving this award here tonight… but to tell you the truth… I wasn’t expecting it at all.  Vindy… I thought this was yours, man, and I can tell you that your name was definitely on my ballot.

[Real pauses to collect his thoughts and continues…]

Bret Real - Anyways, I’m just going to keep this short and sweet.  As crazy as it sounds, I guess I have to thank the heels of the SWL for this because if it weren’t for them there would be no “Regulators”… and no Bret Real.  So even though some of them have changed their tune as of late or are nowhere to be heard of, I’d like to thank the Luscious Lawrence Rhodes’… The SuperUnknowns… and of course, the Grinnins of the SWL.
It was my pleasure kicking your asses from one town to the next… and as seen by last week’s Shockwave… never say never… because The Real Deal may just show up unannounced and kick your asses again… (Real flashes that patented smirk)… Just for old times sake!  (Pop!)

[On cue, “Bulls on Parade” starts to play again as Real turns to all four sides of the ring and lips “Thank You” to the crowd in attendance before finally making his way out of the ring.]

Brian Williams - It's nice to see Bret Real back in the ring again, hopefully the appearance last week was no one time thing.  And while we are on the subject of Best Face, why not go to the other side of the ball with our

("Sad But True" blares through the speakers as Grinnin comes out at the top of the ramp with a mic.)

Grinnin - Best heel huh?  More like most viscious heel, most underhanded heel.  Should i say thanks?  Duh, i am a heel, of course i aint saying thanks for this award.  Anyway, it is an honour that everyone thinks that i am worthy of this so you can take that as you will.

(Grinnin walks backstage.)

Brian Williams - Grinnin, come back out here, I have another award for you.  It's the

(Grinnin comes out on the ramp with a mic, still holding his other award.)

Sean Barrett (Grinnin) - Thanks for this award as well.  Even that i have to give somebody else a little bit of credit even though i dont think he is going to
read this.  Tommy K.  You were the one that taught me the real value of a good entance back in the PWP.  I based everything i have around that so this
one should really be yours.

Brian Williams - While we are at it, let's give you another award as I am sure you want to get out of here to rest up for tomorrow night.  This one goes for the

Grinnin - A stalker?  Me?  Whatever.  It was really that big guy that chimed the chair off the head of the Boss.

Brian Williams - Sure, sure Grin.  That's why you said it was you!!

Grinnin -   Shh,  You were supposed to forget about that.  Even that angle i can only take a little credit for.  As much work as i did with it i think it was the boss who suggested something along those lines way back last year.  It was definately something i had a lot of fun doing and as you noticed what made it so challenging is that i am a really lousy poet.

(Grinnin walks backstage)

Brian Williams - It's nice to see we are moving right along here.  Why don't we take a bit of a time out and see the other

Anna Dea - The winner of this match, and new SWL World champion, Grinnin!!!

Terry Hogan - I don't think anyone cares!

[Grinnin grabs a mic]

Grinnin - You stupid people.  Did you really think that I would help that sorry, good for nothing president?  Well I did.  I did
exactly what I said I would.  I found out the stalker and it was .....

ME!  Come here baby.

[Steph walks over to Grinnin and wraps her arms around his neck and kisses him]

Grinnin - That's right you morons.  The worlds best looking woman is now with the worlds most notorious man.  So you people, the president and everyone else in the SWL can kiss my ass!!!  Brian Williams, you get in my face now and I won't just steal your girlfriend, but something else will happen to you and that is ....
YOU WILL GET SMACKED!!!!!

[A couple of photographers get in the ring and start taking pictures of Grinnin and his friend.  Grinnin lightly steps on Bret Real and poses.]

Charlie Watkins - It was Grinnin all along?!

Terry Hogan - I would have thought he would have a little more respect than that!  That's just wrong!

Charlie Watkins - Well, it's been one hell of a night.  We have two new champions, we found out who the stalker was, and we still don't know who that mountain of a man was.

Terry Hogan - We'll just have to wait until next week to find out some answers!  Til next time, keep.......What is going on!

Charlie Watkins - It appears as though one of the photographers took a picture too close to Grinnin.

Terry Hogan - Oh No!  That photographer just smashed the big man over the head with his camera!

Charlie Watkins - And now he's lifting Grinnin up into a reverse suplex.... Oooh! He just dropped him head first into a reverse DDT!  We have lost total control here folks!

[The photographer and a now standing Bret Real pick Grinnin up and throw him over the top rope onto the floor.  They then roll the big man out of the rings as well.  The photographer takes off his hat and throws his glasses inot the crowd.]

Charlie Watkins - Oh My!  Do you know who that is?!

Terry Hogan - It can't be!  He's been out of the SWL for a couple months.

Charlie Watkins - It is!  It's The Kid..... It's The Kid!

Terry Hogan - You're right!  It's "The Kid" Billy Rock!

(The Kid joins hands with Bret "The Regulator" Real and lifts their arms skyward.  The "KID!  KID!  KID!" chants throb around the two warriors.  The ring announcer delivers a microphone to the Kid.  The Kid scratches his thin, dirty blonde beard and trades a smile to the crowd for the warm chant of his name ... )

"The Kid" Billy Rock - I am ... BACK AT LAST!

(He lifts his chin and scans the arena and the thousands of raging fans.)

The Kid - But  ... why?

(Billy spreads his fingers and holds his palm up.)

The Kid - My dream slipped through these fingers at the first SWL pay-per-view.  The SWL World Heavyweight Title.  But it's just a matter of time, determination, and a very articulate process before I garnish this waist with it!  So Grinnin, don't get too cozy with that belt.  It's gravitatin' toward the Kid, 'cause there ain't NO PLACE like home! Now what you're all craving is an explaination for all this.  Well let me be the one to satisfy it.

(Billy sticks his index finger in the direction of Bret "The Regulator" Real.)

The Kid - Me and this son of a b*tch use to use each other's heads to crack our knuckles!  That's what made us tighter than Dolly Parton in an A-cup! And I am SICK and TIRED of sitting back and just watching while he balls up those two fists and slings 'em at everything and everyone in front of him.  I think it's about time I lent him an extra set of arms to throw at everything and everyone trying to creep up behind him!

(The Kid looks at Bret and offers his hand.)

The Kid - I'm here to watch your back, brother!

(He turns back toward the crowd.)

The Kid - Don't let this good samaritan gig distort your memory of how dangerous and promising the threat of my presence is.
You stand in our way and I'm guaranteed to kick seven shades of sh*t out of each and every hole in your miserable bodies!

(The crowd cheers as The Kid tosses the microphone to Bret and "Real Deal" chants fill the arena.)

Bret Real - Grinnin... I kept my word, you sorry sack of sh*t! The title is yours... but... did YOU really win, Grinnin?...

(Real flashes that patented smirk and shakes his head)

Bret Real - I DON'T THINK SO! You see, after the beating you took here tonight... I doubt you'll even be able to wear that belt around that battered body of yours for weeks to come! And believe me, Grinnin... this is FAR... from over!

(The Regulator turns to look at "The Kid" Billy Rock for a moment... and then turns back to face the camera)

Bret Real - People may be wondering... "What is The Real Deal doing with a guy like Billy Rock?"  Well, I'll tell you... There's
a saying that goes like this... "Keep your friends close... BUT... Keep your enemies closer!"

(Real points towards Rock with his free hand)

Bret Real - No matter what the critics say... THIS... is the Most Notorious Man in the S... W... L...

(Crowd starts chanting "KID! KID! KID!" The Vindicator makes his way down the aisle.)

Charlie Watkins - Now what?!

Bret Real - And with these men on MY side... "THE REGULATORS" side... All you low-life, no-talent-having scum...  (Real cracks a full grin)...  And again -- you know who you are ladies... Be forewarned!  Because THE REGULATORS... will make
sure... that JUSTICE... IS... SERVED!

(Bret gives the microphone back to The Kid.)

The Kid - Grinnin.  The Stalker.  Emo Phillips or the Godd*mn Pope!  We don't care what you think your name is!  The only
thing that is certain is by the time you've  realized it was a pretty dim lit idea to f*ck with this pack, it'll be too late to avoid the question that's rolled off the tongues of so many before you.

How can somethin' that looks so good ... HURT SO BAD?!

("Where You At Rock?" by Kid Rock rumbles across the arena as they leave the ring, slapping hands with all the fans near the aisle ... )

Charlie Watkins - Are you taking this all in?  If I am hearing right, those three men formed a group called The Regulators?

Terry Hogan - Wow!  Bret Real, Billy Rock, AND The Vindicator all in one group!  The rest of the SWL better watch out!

Charlie Watkins - Especially Grinnin!  He's a bit outnumbered!

Terry Hogan - From the looks of it, I'd say... just a bit.  Although, he does have that big guy that was with him.  Do you know who it was?

Charlie Watkins - No, I don't.  But we are seriously out of time here everyone.  I hope you enjoyed Back At Last as much as we enjoyed putting it on for you!  I'm sure there will be some major fallout on our next show.  There are still a lot of questions to be answered.  So until next time...... Keep Reaching for Those Stars!

Brian Williams - Although I think that Prevailing Justice will be great, it didn't happen in time for this next category.  We have a lot of big shows every couple of months, and this one far surpassed anyones expectations.  It was the first Pay Per View since re-opening.  We saw an AMAZING ladder match between "HeartThrob" Tommy Havock and MOB Squad.  We saw The Vindicator win the Quasar Title to begin his four month reign as champ.  We saw Kid return, Grinnin win the World Strap from Bret Real, and the beginning of The Regulators.  The award for the

Brian Williams - We are going to go partly out of character here as we award the

(Grinnin is shown on the Jumbotron)

Sean Barrett (Grinnin) - I have to give Brian (The Kids handler) his full due here as well.  He is an amazing handler who like myself is always looking for the
bigger angle for the good of the fed as opposed to our own personal glory. It is a pleasure o work with him.  I also want to say that for all the awards i have been nominated for and won this has to be the one that means the most to me because this is the one that says the most about me and the way i have managed to impact the SWL and try and make it the best damn e-fed around.

("Whatever It Takes" by POD plays as "The Kid" Billy Rock comes forward to accept his award ... )

The Kid - Wow.

(Billy pauses to absorb the feeling ... )

The Kid - One of the greatest compliments anyone could receive about the quality of their work comes from their peers.  I thank everyone who voted for me for realizing that the blood and sweat I pour into the SWL is not for my sole benifit, but the prosperity of the organization.  I want to thank Brian Williams as well for his dedication to the SWL which started out as a dream of his, but has become a dream for us all.  A dream we hope the morning never dawns on.  I want to think Bret Real for pestering me until I finally decided to return to the SWL.

(The Kid lifts his award in the air ... )

The Kid - And to the best friends and teammates a man could stand by, Vindicator and Lawrence Rhodes.  May the best of your past be the worst of
your future.  Thank you, everyone.

("The Kid" leave the ring.)

Brian Williams - Although it kind of goes with the best angle, it's not the same thing.  The next award is for the

(Grinnin is shown on the Jumbotron)

Grinnin - Well, i cant take all the credit for these awards.  I mean look who i was working with.  Bret "The Regulator" Real.  I must admit that the wrestler in me and the character in me hates his guts, but you have to respect the man regardless.  He gave me a hell of a match that last time and it took everything i had to put him out of here.  Luck Bret.

Brian Williams - I have been informed that Bret Real has passed on making any statements on this award as he will talk more later.  But now onto the next award which is awarded for being the best of our four champions for any period of time.  There have been many tag teams and singles wrestlers who could deserve this award, but only one gets it.

(”My Own Prison" by Creed begins to play as the lights go out and green lasers fill the arena.  The fans are immediately errupt.  The Vindicator enters wearing a tux and the ladies can be heard screaming even louder.  It is a black, collarless tux with button cover instead of bow tie.  His face is painted in the pattented Vindicator design and is colored black, white, and green.  He is smiling and point out to the fans as he walks to the ring.  He walks up the steps and bends down to get through the ropes.  Someone from ringside hands him the mic and his award for Best Champion.  He admires it for a moment before speaking.)

The Vindicator - First and foremost I've got to thank my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for blessing me with the abillity to win this award.

(He kneels for a moment and points up.  The fans respond extremely favorably.)

The Vindicator - And next I've got to give props to all those Big V fans out there!

(Another loud pop from the fans.)

The Vindicator - What can I say?  I had a great run as the Quasar Champion. Who knows what would have happened if injuried and personal business had not got in the way.  As for the future, I'm gonna keep giving my fans 110% and to answer the question that I've been asked by many fans, yes I'm going to be
going after that world title first chance I get!

(Pop.)

The Vindicator - Thanks and God bless.

(The fans stand to their feet as the Vindicator leaves the arena.)

Brian Williams - Our last real Award is for the

["My Own Prison" by Creed begins to play as green lasers fill the arena. One by one, The Original Regulators make their way on to the entrance from backstage. First The Vindicator... then Bret Real... and finally, "The Kid" Billy Rock. They all stand side by side on the ramp and raise their arms in unison to a HUGE POP as the crowd recognizes how rare it is to see all three men appearing together nowadays.  Smiles creep up on their faces as they begin to make their way to the ring, slapping hands with the fans that have crowded the barricades. Once in the ring, they all scale a corner post each and once again raise their arms in triumph to another deafening POP!]

The Vindicator - Ladies and gentlemen give it up for the Best Stable in the SWL!!!

(Again the crowd is on their feet and screaming at the top of their lungs.)

The Vindicator - Thanks you all  (points to the fans)  for making this happen.   (pause)   And to think all of this started with a simple phone call from Brian Williams. I had all but left the wrestling scene until Williams gave me a call looking for someone who had dealt with a certain nuisance before.  You see I had fought off the Grinnin monster before and won.  Williams needed someone to come in and get to the bottom of the whole stalker issue. Well one thing led to another and Real and I got on the same page, the page to keep chumps like Grinnin from having a free reign on the SWL.  Well when Billy got added to the equation we immediately knew that this was to be THE force in the SWL.  The addition of Rhodes has sealed the legacy of the Regulators and we keep coming out here every week making our fool opponents famous!

(Another pop.)

The Vindicator - (getting louder and more excited)  People have tried to stop us!  They've tried to divide us!  They've tried to end our careers!  They've tried to kill us!  BUT YOU KNOW WHAT!?!?  WE'RE STILL HERE REGULATING!!!!!

(The Vindicator steps back and hands the microphone to Bret Real who takes center stage to a nice ovation…)

Bret Real - First off... I've gotta say that it's great being in the ring again with these two.  I have never worked with a better bunch of guys... and I truly mean that.

(Real pauses and looks over at The Vindicator.)

Bret Real - As Vindy said… he and I were acquainted by President Williams because we stood for the same thing... we had the same values.

(Real turns to face "The Kid" Billy Rock.)

Bret Real - ...and Billy... well, I had to beat it into Billy to change his ways ... but he came around.

(Real begins to pace in the ring as he looks out into the crowd.)

Bret Real - The THREE of us made "The Regulators" synonymous with greatness... Despite the other wrestlers that asked us to join our stable, the THREE of us politely declined because we were all about quality... not quantity. And when it came to watching each other's back, the THREE of us were always there to throw their support behind each other no matter who our opponents were...

(Real looks to The Vindicator and The Kid for approval…)

Bret Real - Ain't that right guys?  The THREE of us were practically brothers, right?

(The Kid and The Vindicator nod)

Terry Hogan - The three of them this… The three of them that.  Doesn’t Bret know there’s four Regulators now?

Charlie Watkins - Yeah… I don’t know where Bret’s going with this?

Bret Real - No matter what the stakes were… and no matter who the wrestler was - you guys would always have my back, right? (The Vindicator and The Kid exchange a puzzled look and then turn to Bret and nod again.)

(Real tuns his back on his partners as he continues...)

Bret Real - Just doublechecking... because before I left the SWL, I remember feuding with a wrestler that goes by the name...

(Real turns towards The Vindicator and The Kid and looks them in the eyes. The next three words that come out of his mouth are spoken slowly and sternly.)

Bret Real - Luscious... Lawrence... Rhodes.

(The crowd starts to cheer at the mention of LLR.)

Terry Hogan - That's where Charlie! It looks like Real still has hard feelings towards the newest member of The Regulators!

Charlie Watkins - C’mon Bret!  Let bygones be bygones!

Terry Hogan - Those comments Rhodes made about Bret a while back… Rhodes standing and watching from afar when Bret made his return last week and cleaned house with the other Regulators… It’s all making sense!

Bret Real - Now, Kid...  Vindy...  When I think of the values of a Regulator...  The integrity of a Regulator...  The BALLS of a Regulator...  I only have this to ask you about Luscious Lawrence Rhodes...

(Real pauses)

Bret Real - (Getting up in their face…) WHAT THE HELL...

(Real is interrupted mid-sentence as The Prodigy Mix of Methodman’s "Release Yo' delf" echoes around the arena. A yellowish haze lights the entrance as Rhodes appears with his hands on hips. He briskly makes his way to the ring, slides under the bottom rope and comes nose to nose with Bret Real in the center of the ring. The crowd is buzzing with anticipation of what could happen next.)

Terry Hogan - This is great Charlie!  Two Regulators are going to go at it... at an AWARDS SHOW nonetheless!!

Charlie Watkins - And look at The Vindicator and The Kid! They look like they don't know what's going on!

(Real and Rhodes continue to stare down each other nose to nose and each looks to be muttering something to the other...

(HUGE POP!)

Terry Hogan - WHAT?!

Charlie Watkins - Lawrence Rhodes and Bret Real simultaneously broke out of their staredown, shook hands… and are now hugging in the middle of the ring!  The Kid and the Vindicator still don’t know what’s going on!

Terry Hogan - Someone tell me what’s going on!  I thought these guys hated each other!

(Rhodes and Real share a good chuckle at the expense of The Vindicator and The Kid.  Real looks at them both, raises the mic to his mouth and continues)...

Bret Real - As I was saying before I was so rudely interrupted ... WHAT THE HELL TOOK YOU GUYS SO LONG?  (Crowd pops)  I mean... here is the top young gun in the fed and you guys almost lost him for good to The Wrecking Crew?  What were you guys thinking?

(Real turns to Rhodes and puts one hand on Rhodes' shoulder...)

Bret Real - Lawrence... you truly are Regulator material.  And with Vindy and Billy by your side, you are definitely in good hands.  Welcome aboard.

 (Real and Rhodes shake hands and embrace once more before Real hands over the mic.)

Lawrence Rhodes - Well Bret, it's been some time but Id just like to say ... thank you. (Rhodes smiles) But what did you guys think?  (Rhodes points the mic at both the Vindicator and the Kid.)  Had you worried there, didn't we??

(Both Bret Real and Lawrence Rhodes laugh as the Vindicator and the Kid stand shaking their heads.)

Lawrence Rhodes - Anyway, it truly is an honor to jump aboard the Regulators train, and this award certainly justifies the decision I made.

(Rhodes begins to pace the ring. He seems to be enjoying himself.)

Lawrence Rhodes - You know, 'The Luscious One' has been here in the SWL since the turn of the year.  I've won some gold, (Rhodes looks at Bret Real) lost some gold (smiles) and had match after match against wrestlers not good enough to lace up these guys boots. But when you win an award like this ...  it makes it all worth while. And me…  (Rhodes points to himself)…  well, I for one couldn’t do it without the support of the fans. (Good crowd pop.)  But this ain't about me ...  it's about the collective.  The Regulators.  So without further ado… (Rhodes moves towards Billy Rock)  I give you ...  (Rhodes throws Billy Rock the mic as the crowd blow the roof off.)

(The Kid puts his hand in Rhodes' for a firm shake before facing the fans ... )

The Kid - If you'll indulge me for a moment I'd like to drive a wedge between the definition of rights and priviliges. For instance, you have the right to speak your mind in any forum. We have the privilige of speaking ours to you right now. You have the right to elect anyone you feel is worthy of standing right where we are tonight. We have the privilige of standing where we are tonight. You have the right to choose your company, your friends, who you stand side by side with. I have the privilige of standing next to these three men.

(The Kid points to Rhodes and swings his finger across Bret Real and Vindicator ... )

The Kid - These three men have joined me in proving that you can ambush and cripple anyone who isn't looking, and it might garner you all the attention you want, but it won't earn you a grain of respect.  That's why the plaque says The Regulators.  Not the Wrecking Who?  So we thank you.

(Billy turns to his teammates .. )

The Kid - And I thank you.

(He looks back into the crowd ... )

The Kid - Not only do we share this with each other, we share it with you. The fans. You've made us famous.

[“Whatever It Takes” by POD begins to play as all four men stand united in the center of the ring with their arms raised over their heads.  They take in the deafening ovation from the crowd as they simultaneously turn to each side of the ring for a few seconds at a time to show their appreciation and then proceed to make their way out of the ring and back up the ramp.]

Brian Williams - Well, we have one award left.  It is the one that everyone will reach for someday and only a few will come down with it.  It is where the elite end up.  It is the

Brian Williams - And tonight we honor one man who has been here since the beginning....

Originally known simply as “The Regulator”, Bret Real made his SWL debut in August of 1999 and immediately began to make a name for himself in a big
way.   In less than a month, after being entered in a tournament for the then vacant Quasar Title, Real defeated rivals such as “The Kid” Billy Rock and Grinnin
en route to becoming the SWL’s first ever Quasar Champion on August 24th, 1999.

Bret Real’s quest for gold continued into Y2K.  On January 2nd, 2000, Real was pitted in a Title-for-Title Match against a formidable World Champion in
Micheal Cage.  After nailing his finisher, “Judgment Day”, Real came out victorious and became the new SWL World Heavyweight Champion.

Approximately one month later, after some outside interference, “The Real Deal” lost the World Title to Grinnin at the Back At Last PPV.  But the story of that
night, by far, was the creation of a powerful alliance of which the SWL had never before seen.   At the request of President Brian Williams, The Vindicator and
Bret would join forces but not before Bret threw in a little twist of his own.  Real contacted his former rival, “The Kid” Billy Rock who had left the SWL
several months earlier and asked him to come back and do battle along side each other instead of against each other as they had been so accustomed.  Rock
agreed and “The Regulators” were born.

Real had it all… or so we thought.  One thing that kept gnawing at the back of his mind was the fact that he had never had a chance to win The Spotlight Title.
On May 21st, 2000 his dream of becoming an SWL Triple Crown winner would become a reality when he defeated a strong, young Spotlight Champion
named “Luscious” Lawrence Rhodes.

Ironically enough, that would be Bret Real’s last SWL victory.  The following week, on May 28th, 2000, Real went head-to-head once again with Grinnin, but
this time in a Last Man Standing Match with the stipulation that the loser would have to leave the SWL… for good.
The same two combatants that started their SWL careers at almost the same time and that had been on opposite sides of the fence since day one went at it one
more time in an SWL classic.

Brian Williams - Everyone, please give a round of applause for the first entrant into the SWL's Hall of Fame.... Bret "The Regulator" Real.

[The crowd erupts once more as the lights go out in the arena and “Bulls on Parade” by Rage Against The Machine begins to play.  Bret Real makes his way from the back stage area.  On the way he stops by the announcer’s both and shakes Terry Hogan’s hand and then Charlie Watkins’ hand.  After exchanging a few pleasantries with the latter, he enters the arena, and walks down to the ring.  He climbs the ring steps… pauses… takes a deep breath… and then enters the ring and takes center stage.

He raises the mic to his mouth and his lips can be seen saying “Thank you” a few times, but the ovation from the crowd is drowning him out.  He waits a few moments for the crowd to settle down enough so that he can be heard and then proceeds…]

Bret Real - Thank You.  Despite all of my accomplishments in the SWL… the awards earlier tonight… the Triple Crown… this… definitely means the most to me.  After all… awards, belts… they are won and lost… but being inducted into the SWL Hall of Fame… is forever.

(Crowd pops.)

Bret Real - If I could take the time to personally thank each and every one of you here tonight… all the fans, the management, the other wrestlers… I would.  But there are so many of you that are responsible for this that it is virtually impossible for me to do so.  You have all had some sort of impact on the wrestler as well as the person that Bret Real has become.  So if I’ve accidentally missed you… please forgive me.

(Real pulls out a piece of paper from the inside pocket of his jacket and unfolds it…)

Bret Real - I want to thank President Williams… for having the faith and confidence you’ve bestowed upon me and for giving me the opportunity of a lifetime.
To “Luscious” Lawrence Rhodes and Micheal Cage…  for passing on the torch, if you will.
To Grinnin… for several memorable moments.
To The Kid and Vindy… for being there for the good times and also for the bad.  I love you guys.
And to the fans and everyone else that voted for me… I’d like to say “thanks” again… because without you… none of this, truly, would have been possible.  Thank You.

Brian Williams - And with that I want to say thank you for making the SWL what it has been and hopefully always will be.  We will see you all tomorrow night.

Terry Hogan - Well, it's nice to see everyone getting along, but it won't be like this tomorrow night for Prevailing Justice.

Charlie Watkins - Very true... but until then, Keep Reaching For those Stars!
