Charlie Watkins - Welcome to Zero Tolerance everyone! It's the date that we have been counting down for weeks now.
Terry Hogan - FINALLY, Brian
Williams is going to get what's coming to him. After he screwed Grinnin
at StarGate, you
can't imagine what is going to happen
in our main event.
The Kid - I am the SWL World Heavyweight Champion. I thought I'd remind you of that since you're attention span spreads about as far as the nearest coattail! By name I am The Kid. But son, by reputation I am THE MAN!
Rhodes - I think I'm gonna enjoy myself, yeah ... for once in my life I'm gonna do this for me [Rhodes begins to smile and shakes his head] no gold, no Wreckin Crew, I'm gonna shake the house down and do this one for me.
John Cook - You see, I'm already booked for a match tonight.
(Cook pulls the mask off and reveals Micheal Cage)
Micheal Cage - Suprise....See
in my effort to do anything for this company, I put on this mask to try
and ressurect the tag
team division. I want to thank my
friend Jose Perez for stepping into this position to help me out, but as
you can see our effort
failed. Jose is gone, Am-Mex is
gone, but I am here. None the less, Williams I think I have once again
proven that I am the
Franchise of the SWL. I'm tired
of being put aside on the back burner.
Brian Williams - I've decided
to use your idea, only putting my little twist on things. I've decided
to call it "The Shooting
Star Tournament". More details
will be given out next week, but I just wanted to tell you, thanks.
This is going to be huge as
the prize for this tournament is
a shot at the World Title Belt at the next Pay Per View.
[Spades climbs to the top step. Mr. Vegas unhooks the briefcase!! ]
Terry Hogan - Mr. Vegas has won the match!
Anna Dea - The winner of this match, and new SWL Quasar champion, "Mr. Vegas" Johnny Spades!!!
Charlie Watkins - And the Vindicator has won this famed crowbar match of his.
Charlie Watkins - My God!!
Steph just turned on Grinnin!!!! What a shock here folks!! And Grinnin
just shoved Steph down
and Steph appears to be holding
her injured knee now and is crying in obvious pain folks! Grinnin has snapped
and grabs the
Crutch from the ground and starts
to beat Williams uncontrollably with it.
Terry Hogan - Look at this,
even Spades looks a little shocked at the viciousness of this attack and
that aint good because he
is going to let The Kid get into
the ring!!!
[Luscious Lawrence Rhodes runs down the aisle, into the cage and slides into the ring where he immediatly starts to attack .... Johnny Spades]
[Grinnin has Billy Rock up over his
head as he stradles the top of the cage and now every flashbulb in the
Fleet centre is going
off as Grinnin throws Billy Rock
from the top of the steel cage which is fifteen feet over the ring, and
almost twenty feet to the
floor. The flash bulbs continue
to flash as Billy falls down, over the rail guard and into the first few
rows just a few feet away
from Shaquille O'Neal who also has
a shocked look on his face.]
Charlie Watkins - Holy Smokes! The Kid went off the Cage and into the crowd!! That has to be 20 feet up in the air!
[Grinnin then climbs the rest of
the way down the cage and meets with Spades at the bottom as there is a
stunned silence over
the crowd.]
[The Vindicator runs down the aisle
and into the audience to check on The Kid. "Luscious" Lawrence Rhodes
joins him after
getting out of the cage.]
Charlie Watkins - It doesn't look good for either "The Kid" Billy Rock OR Brian Williams.

Charlie Watkins - Welcome to Sacremento everyone. After having a nice East Coast swing, we are finally getting out here for the great weather. You know Terry, I was kinda sick of all the rain.
Terry Hogan - I know what you mean. But we have had a nice run of shows while over there. I mean, the most dominant group in SWL history was formed in The Wrecking Crew.
Charlie Watkins - I can't argue with that as they have taken out the entire group of The Regulators. First Grinnin sent Bret Real packing, then the Crew took out The Vindicator who only just came back. And now Billy Rock is gonzo for what I'm hearing may be a month. The official word is that Rock's got a couple of bruised ribs and a concussion. The SWL doesn't want to take any chances with their biggest star.
Terry Hogan - Biggest star? I laugh in your face at that comment. The biggest star is BY FAR, the Most Notorious Man in the SWL, the Grinman.
Charlie Watkins - Ahh, well, he is by default now as The Kid is gone.
Terry Hogan - And The Regulators are gone. The Wrecking Crew made sure of that.
(The lights in the arena dim as a giant "V" appears on the Jumbotron. Immediately the fans are on their feet cheering wildly.)
Charlie Watkins - Are you sure?
(Green lasers light up the arena as "My Own Prison" by Creed begins to play. The Vindicator emerges from the back and stands under the entry way. There is a large explosion and he begins to walk to the ring. He is wearing the new Regulators T-Shirt. It is black with large green crosshairs in the center. In the middle of the crosshairs is written "Regulators" in white. He is holding two more of the same t-shirt. His face is painted green, black, and white to match the shirt. The Vindicator goes up to a little kid next to the guard rail with his face painted like the Vindicator. He says something to him, gives him some dap and hands him a Regulators shirt. The Vindicator continues on to the ring. He grabs a mic and gets in the middle of the ring.)
The Vindicator - What's up Sacremento?!?!
(Louder pops.)
The Vindicator - Yeah! That's what I thought! (pause) Last week you saw one of the most pivotal pay per views that profesional wrestling has witnessed in a long time. You saw yours truly in a crowbar match with Michael that took both of us to a new level. Cage you listen to this real good cause it's not something I'm gonna say a lot. I have a deeper respect for you after seeing what you can take and where you can take me. Cut it out with all this quitting crap and get your butt back to the top of the SWL where it belongs. Kill the attitude and get back to where you were when I came to the SWL.
(Crowd cheers.)
The Vindicator - You also saw a woman return to her senses when she decided that Grinnin was more concerned with try to kill people than taking care of her. Steph, you made a smart move and Brian get her away from this business as fast you can. You know about my past situations with people you care about bring around the ring. You also saw a man fall from the top of a steel cage to the floor. Official word is that Kid's gonna be out for a little while.
(Crowd boo's.)
The Vindicator - But never count a Regulator out!
(Crowd cheers.)
The Vindicator - That leaves me as the lone Regulator for now. So now we come to this spot in the road. A spot where I am completely fed up with this whole Wrecking Crew thing. (boos) A bunch of thugs that don't give a rat's butt about the SWL, about wrestling, or even about other people's lives. When I recieved the phonecall from Brian Williams to come to the SWL he had one thing in mind. He knew I had dealt with Grinnin before and he had a pretty good idea that Grinnin was behind Steph's stalker. So the Regulators banded together against everything that Grinnin stood for and systematically he has taken us one by one. I've gotta give a man credit for that. But Grinnin in your little eliminate the Regulators game you made one fatal error. YOU DIDN'T TAKE ME OUT FOR GOOD!
(Crowd erupts.)
The Vindicator - So Mr. Gobsmacker let me make you a promise whether I have any back up or whether it's just me, the Wrecking Crew is about to get wrecked by Big V and the Regulators. I make a promise to do to you what you've done to Real, what you may have done to the Kid, and what you've tried to do to me.
(The Vindicator looks around the ring and pauses while the fans cheer.)
The Vindicator - Speaking of back up...you also saw last week a man come to his senses. You saw one of the most talented guys in this sport realize that the Wrecking Crew was a bunch of over inflated ego's and that he wasn't getting anywhere with them around. That man is The Lucious One, Lawrence Rhodes.
(Crowd cheers.)
The Vindicator - So Rhodes if you're in here why don't come down to this ring so we can discuss some business.
(At that moment the prodigy mix of Methodmans 'Release Yo'delf cuts in. There is a slight hush over the crowd as a yellowish hue lights the entrance. 'Luscious' Lawrence Rhodes stands at the entrance. Rhodes has on his wrestling atire as well as a tight white tee-shirt proclaiming 'Cool Britannia'. Rhodes has a very serious look on his face. He stands silently, then raises his head and puts his hands on his hips. He stares out into the arena surveying the crowd. Rhodes continues to look around the theatre as he begins to move down towards the ring. As he reaches the ring steps he stops. He lets out a big grin. He stands motionless surveying the arena before passing through the ropes and into the ring. He moves towards the Vindicator, standing nearly nose to nose, he then backs up slightly.)
The Vindicator - Rhodes, I've watched you since I've been here and I know for a fact that you do have what it takes to hand with guys like me, The Kid, and Grinnin. I know there was some bad blood between you and Real before he was forced into retirement but after seeing first hand what the Wrecking Crew really is I think we're on the same page now. I've talked this over with the Kid and he's agreed to what I'm about to propose here tonight. We would be honored if you would take this (he holds the Regulator t-shirt towards Rhodes) and become an official part of the Regulators.
(The crowd cheers.)
"Luscious" Lawrence Rhodes - [Staring straight at the Vindicator] Yo Vin Man ... if I can call you Vin Man, without the copyright police canning my ass. It's a nice gesture [Rhodes points at the shirt] and all but Lawrence Rhodes is done with gestures. I had it up to here [Rhodes taps the top of his head] with the promises made to me by those Wreckin Fools. So Vin if I can take a step back and think about this for a moment.
[A few boos from the crowd]
The Vindicator - LLR this is no gesture. This is the opportunity for you to take the next step in cementing your place as one of the SWL top dawgs. You've proven you've got it. Get out of the Wrecking Crew shadows and step into the spotlight man.
(Pause)
Rhodes - Now Vin, Lawrence Rhodes has thought about this. In fact I've thought about this long and hard ... and I'd like to say this. Never again will Lawrence Rhodes play second fiddle to a pumped up redneck with a gambling problem. Never again will Lawrence Rhodes throw away a title shot to save the damn Pay per view. [Rhodes turns to the camera] Ya dig Spades. [Turns back to face the Vindicator.] And never again will Lawrence Rhodes run with a pack of flea bitten, mainge ridden mutts. 'Luscious' Lawrence Rhodes will be proud to stand with you Vin Man, with Billy Rock when he gets back on his feet and even Bret Real ... and 'Luscious' Lawrence Rhodes will be proud to be announced as a regulator when he comes down to this ring to kick the crap outta the Wrecking Crew.
(Rhodes grins as he catches the Regulators t-shirt thrown to him by the Vindicator. They shake hands and the crowd blows up. They exit.)
Charlie Watkins - As you were saying? I think it was something about the Regulators being dead?
Terry Hogan - Okay, I was wrong. Sue me.
Charlie Watkins - Nope, that was what Rizzo would have done. I'm not that kind of guy.
Terry Hogan - Cheap shot.
Charlie Watkins - He left.
I can say what I want about him. But I really think that it's time
for our first match.

Anna Dea - This match is a Standard Match. On his way to the ring at this time, weighing in at 252 pounds, from Rochester, New York, Justin Arcola!!! (crowd cheers ********)

Terry Hogan - Justin Arcola has won the match!
Anna Dea - The winner of this match, Justin Arcola!!!
Charlie Watkins - And two relatively new guys duke it out with Arcola coming out on top.
Terry Hogan - I love watching the new guys. They don't quite have the respect yet, but occasionally you see one grow into a Real player in the SWL. No pun intended.
Charlie Watkins - Going back to your comments on The Regulators, our own Dalton Fisk caught up with "The Kid" Billy Rock earlier today. Let's see what he has to say.
(Dalton Fisk looks into the camera from a wooden rocking chair on a familiar porch. He's wearing an SWL t-shirt and a pair of blue jeans ... )
Dalton Fisk - Last week the inevitable occurred. Grinnin's "Reign Of Terror" tour ran through our SWL World Heavyweight Champion, "The Kid" Billy Rock. Grinnin is use to chasing down his victims. Stalking until he spots his opening no matter how tight the squeeze may be. However, last Sunday The Kid did the unexpected. He came to Grinnin and wound up paying the toll. From the top of a twenty foot high steel cage, Billy Rock descended on a free fall into the second row of fans, injuring himself in the process.
(Dalton shifts to the side as the camera draws backward to expand the frame. Sitting in a rocking chair separated from Fisk by a small table supporting the SWL World Heavyweight Title is "The Kid" Billy Rock. He's wearing a sleeveless "Regulators" shirt and a pair of dark green cargo pants. Standing behind him with her hands on his shoulders is Billy's longtime love, Nicole Thatcher, wearing a light blue tank top and tight blue jeans ... )
Dalton Fisk
- Billy it's good to see that you're recovering well from ...
Nicole - Thank you, Dalton.
Dalton Fisk - How are you feeling, Billy?
The Kid
- It's like this, Dalton. I'd be tearing that arena apart looking
for Grinnin tonight if I had my doctor's permission. But I've got
a good thing going with this gig in wrestling and I'm not going to stunt
the growth of my career by letting my emotions override my brain.
But I'm not complaining. Look where it landed me. I'm surrounded
by family and I have the love of my life by my side at all times.
If anything I owe Grinnin a thank you.
Dalton Fisk - When can we expect to see you return to work?
The Kid - July 30th. Just in time to save my title reign.
Dalton Fisk - This question may conjure up some bad memories, but what went through your mind after you woke up, surrounded by broken chairs and fans gathered over you, and realized what had happened.
The Kid - The first thing that raced through my mind was to make sure I could still move all my body parts. After that all that concerned me was that I hadn't collided with any of the fans on my course through the air.
Dalton Fisk - And Nicole, it must have been torture for you to watch that from your living room and be able to do nothing. Not even be at his side.
Nicole - It was the most terrifying experience of my life, Dalton.
Dalton Fisk
- Certainly.
The Kid - First of all, Fisk, I don't have to explain myself to anyone. Second, you will learn all you need to know from Rhodes himself.
Dalton Fisk - Fair enough. And we all assume that when you return it'll be to tie up loose ends with Grinnin.
The Kid
-
Dalton Fisk - Thanks for your time, Kid.
(fade)
Charlie Watkins - Well, it's nice to see that he'll be okay.
Terry Hogan - Yeah, the SWL would just totally go down the tube if The Kid was hurt.
Charlie Watkins - I sense sarcasm.
Terry Hogan - You would be right.
Charlie
Watkins - I've had enough of you, let's just get to the next match.
No Limit vs. The Dogmen

Charlie Watkins - A little early for this, don't you think?
[Grinnin and "Mr. Vegas" Johnny Spades run down to the ring and start beating on both No Limit and The Dogmen.]
Charlie Watkins - And as soon as this match starts, it finishes with no real winner.
[Grinnin grabs a mic and looks down at the two badly beaten tag teams, looks wolfishly at Terry Hogan and Charlie Watkins then finally at his partner Johnny Spades. He looks disdainfully out at the SWL crowd who are screaming obscenities at him and Spades. Grinnin brings the mic up to his mouth and begins to speak]
Grinnin - Hello Sacramento, how you doing? Nevermind, i dont give a damn so instead SHUT THE HELL UP!!!
[The crowd erupts even louder and Grinnin and Johnny just say a few words to each other and shake their heads]
Grinnin - Whatever, now on to what is actually important tonight and that is the first announcement of the Wrecking Crew tonight!! In all honesty there are two announcements right now. The first ...
[Grinnin turns to Johhny Spades for a moment]
Grinnin - ... is my congratulations. Congratulations for bringing the Quasar title to the Wrecking Crew but more importantly congratulations on beating that piece of garbage Rizzo at his own game and insuring that the Wrecking Crew STAYS the Wrecking Crew.
[Grinnin reaches out and offers his hand to Johnny Spades who takes it]
Grinnin - Now we all saw what happened at Zero Tolerence, the Wrecking Crew came, the Wrecking Crew hurt some people but mostly the Wrecking Crew dominated the night. The question that was on everyone's minds was why the attack on No Limit? Simple, that was the Wrecking Crew way of saying we are now going after the tag straps, we are now going to make the tag division what it should be. We are going to continue our hostile tackover of the SWL by way of my reign of terror. SWL, you wont know where, you wont know why but when we decide it is so .... YOU WILL GET SMACKED!!!
[Grinnin hands the mic over to Johnny Spades who then begins to speak]
Johnny Spades
-
[The Wrecking Crew leaves as the two tag teams still are down on the mat.]
Terry Hogan - Well, that announcement is not a pleasant thing to the ears of The Dogmen or No Limit. The Tag Team division just got a whole lot more interesting.
Charlie
Watkins - Oh yeah. But that will have to wait as we have to get
moving. A three way match is up next.

["Rebel Yell" by Billy Idol starts up over the loudspeakers.]

[Williams is wearing a suit as always and is on crutches. Bandages cover his face. He takes a microphone from Anna Dea as he hobbles into the ring. Anna Dea passes him his crutches.]
Charlie Watkins - He does NOT look good.
Brian Williams - I'm not feeling all that good at the moment, so I will try to make this quick. I am not going to comment on last weeks massacre as I probably shouldn't have even stepped into the ring with Grinnin, but that's another story for another day. It's nice to see that we have all this support going on in the West Coast. Thank you everyone. I try my best to get people excited about the SWL, and I have an idea that just might do it. Thanks to our one and only Micheal Cage, I have come up with what we like to call "The Shooting Star Tournament". There has been some confusion that has sprouted from it, and very well so. It's not that complicated, but it's something that you have not seen before in wrestling. And just to keep adding to the surprises of this tournament, no one will know when they wrestle until the day they wrestle. It will keep everyone on their toes and show me who's going to work hard and deserves this title shot.
Charlie Watkins - It's not a bad idea.
Brian Williams - The way this tournament is going to work is 4 men will start off next week. It will be a little tournament in itself. The winner of that tournament goes on to the next tournament the next week. So every week, 3 more guys are eliminated. "The Kid" Billy Rock is the ONLY person exempt from this tournament as he holds the World title. But in the first round of each "mini tournament" ALL titles will be defended. These little tournaments will continue for five weeks, and then we will have a number one contendor for the World Belt. There are a lot of guys who have a chance. But the questiont that I would ask any of them, do you have what it takes?
Charlie Watkins - My bet would be on the Vindicator.
Brian Williams - Oh, another thing about this Shooting Star tournament. It's completely random. Cage had a problem with the higher ups "screwing him" per se. Well, if he loses, he will be screwed because of one thing. The luck of the draw. I'm not going to pad it so that my Regulators will make it to the final. I have no say in the matter.
Now, to change the subject a bit. Steph and I are talking again. We aren't really back together, just straightening things out. We have a lot to talk about, and it won't be resolved overnight. And on that note, I am leaving the arena as I have some other things to take care of tonight. To be totally honest, I feel like crap. I just wanted to let all of you know what was going on with this tournament. It's going to be crazy!
["Rebel Yell" by Billy Idol plays as Williams makes his way to the back.]
Terry Hogan - How cool does this tournament sound?
Charlie
Watkins - I still haven't made up my mind, but I know it's going to
be exciting to see what goes down. But we have some excitement coming
up as The Vindicator takes on Janus.

Grinnin - Hello again Sacramento, but do me just another favour by shutting the hell up again!!
[Crowd yells and screams at Grinnin who merely chuckles softly before continueing]
Grinnin - How nice. Guess what, its announcement time again. We here at the Wrecking Crew are known in general to assossiate with the best. I will admit we bungled a little with cream puff Rhodes but who really cares. The point is that we have replaced a chump with a champ and that is just the way i like it here in the Wrecking Crew. Welcome aboard Janus and congratulations. I wanted to let you know one thing though, we have rules here in the Wrecking Crew and they are something like this. Rule one: Break as many SWL rules as possible. Rule two: Dont cross us. Rule three: Kick ass. Rule four: When in doubt, see rules one and three. Tonight the Wrecking Crew just got more powerful, more deadly and SWL, you better be quaking in your shoes cause we aint done yet!!!
Johnny Spades
-
[laughs and hands the mic to Janus. He has a devilish look of satisfaction on his face as the crowd boos loudly]
Janus - Quiet you simpletons. Gentlemen (looks toward Grinnin and Spades) I believe that I can live with those guidelines. In fact I will thrive on them. I look at the men in this ring and I see two other men who thrive on carnage and destruction just as I do. I also look around and I see something else, gold, and more of it to come. The Wrecking Crew is a force that cannot be stopped. Rhodes, Dreamcatcher, or even this pile of dung here (looks disdainfully at the fallen Vindicator), anyone who stands in our way will feel our wrath.
[Janus drops the mic and the three head to the back. But as the three walk up the aisle, Jason Blake runs from behind them and nails Janus on the head with a Kendo stick. The Wrecking Crew then chase him back to the ring where he grabs a mic.]
Jason Blake - You seriously thought you got rid of me Janus? Well think again. We still have some unfinished business to attend to. Once again you took the easy way out at Zero Tolerance. You haven't beaten me yet and I know, and these fans certainly know that you sure as hell don't deserve that belt. You want to see what I'm like when you try to avoid me? Well now prepare to experience the worst time of your life, courtesy of the Bandit!! This is far from over Janus. I will put this all to rest soon enough. But I advise you to watch your back. I will get you often, and when you least expect it. I will make your life a living hell, and I will take the Spotlight title in the process. But you can hang on to it for a little while longer. Just keep it warm for me until I feel like beating you for it. I'll show you who is the superior talent here, and it sure won't be you. When all is said and done, and the dust settles, you will know what it's like to be Blindsided!!!
[Blake will then goes through the crowd to the back as the Wrecking Crew walks out.]
Charlie Watkins - Well on a night when The Regulators got a little stronger, The Wrecking Crew just got a little stronger as well.
Terry Hogan - And it appears that Blake and Janus have something going on now. Blake doesn't stand a chance.
Charlie
Watkins - And now it's time to finish the night off with our main event

[Grinnin is standing outside slowly stalking after Guin when he sees a chair. He picks it up and looks at her meaningfully, then at the chair and then gives her a ruthless smile that she can be seen to visibly shudder at. He takes a quick couple steps to her and raises the chair above his head and just as he starts his forward swing he drops the chair and swings both arms inches from her head that just miss her shoulders. He then appears to say something to her to the effect "Bring back any memories Guin?" He laughs evilly then rolls into the ring after grabbing a mic away from Charlie Watkins. He gets to his feet and looks at the devestation caused by the Wrecking Crew and Attitude Adjuster and starts giving high fives all around. He then brings the mic up so he can begin talking]
Grinnin - Hey Tommy Boy, bet you thought you were going to be safe with old Blake there to help you out. Looks like it was a lost cause though eh? You should know that when you take on the Wrecking Crew you are doing just that. We dont like to lose, hell, we dont even like to play by the rules so you should have known better. Hell, you should have known better because you and i go back a ways. You never trust the Notorious One, especially not this Notorious One. You see, the SWL is changing. Very rapidly now it is starting to change at a fast pace. No more Bret Real. No more Billy Rock. No more Brian Williams. No more of that backstabbing bitch, Steph. And only a battered Vindicator. No more of the SWL heroes to save the day anymore. It should be renamed the WCF or better yet, the Wrecking Crew Federation. We own the company now. We are the company now. We make the rules and we break 'em. Wrecking Crew is in the fast lane SWL and if you get in our way it will be like a Mack truck trampling over a worthless Bug. The motto is so simple even you should understand it. We lead. The bodies follow and you get the hell out of our way!!!
[Crowd goes bonkers at this last bit and Grinnin shakes his head. He waits about 4 seconds before continueing]
Grinnin - Now i am sure that the world is wondering about Attitude Adjuster. Why is a raw rookie in here. Simple, Spades knows him, Spades trusts him and i trust Spades. Double A, i am sure that you heard earlier what the rules are and that is all. Welcome aboard and lets go and whip the SWL around a little.
Johnny Spades
- Double A i told you that good things come to those who wait. You
thought Johnny Spades turned his back on him but I never forget who my
friends are. Welcome to the Wrecking Crew and don't hold back big man be
as evil as you wanna be!!
[Spades throws
the mic to AA while Janus stands back and talks with the rest of the Wrecking
Crew,
shaking hands
and laughs as the crowd boos before AA begins to speak]
Attitude Adjuster - It's time that the SWL receive a major attitude adjustment and I'm just the man to do it. With the Wrecking Crew by my side, we are unstoppable. People can come and try to derail us, but that's going to be like trying to stop a run-a-way trail traveling down a steep hill ... practically impossible. If all you dumb@sses in the back don't believe me, then come on out and just try and see what happens to your sorry @sses. We're heading straight to the top and that's where we're going to stay for a VERY LONG time!
[Attitude Adjuster gives the mic back to Grinnin one last time]
Grinnin - So you see it is really simple. You mess with us, and not only will you be risking your life and your career but you are really guaranteeing something else and that is .... YOU WILL GET SMACKED!!!!
["Forgot the title for now" by Limp Bizkit begins to play as the Wrecking Crew exit the ring and head towards the back where they are met by The Vindicator.]

[While the Crew is distracted, Rhodes jumps Spades. The rest of the Wrecking Crew is taking care of The Vindicator when they realize that Spades and Rhodes are going at it. Rhodes runs to the back, dropping a card on Spades. He grabs a sluggish Vindicator and just slips out.]
Charlie
Watkins - The stable war has just begun, and it looks to get hotter
next week. Also, check out the beginning of the Shooting Star Tournament
next week. And remember.... Keep Reaching For Those Stars!
