AAW: Professional Wrestling Redefined returns to the Berwyn Eagles
Club (6309 26th Street) in Berwyn, IL TONIGHT, Saturday, July 12,
2008 for the 4th Annual "Scars & Stripes!" Tickets are $15 front row
and $12 general admission, and will be available at the door. Doors
open at 6:45pm. Bell time is 7:30pm. $1 beers will be available at
the bar for those with photo ID.
Saturday, July 12th is the day every AAW star and every AAW fan has
had circled on their calendars all year. This is the show where
issues and feuds will end and new ones will begin. This years Scars
and Stripes promises to be the most emotional and riveting show in
AAW history as a star says goodbye and a young man looks for
redemption and his second AAW Heavyweight title. Let's take a closer
look at the card that is highlighted by a double main event.
MAIN EVENT- AAW HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE
JERRY LYNN (c) w/ Jim Jesus
vs
TYLER BLACK
Throughout 2008 Tyler Black has scratched and clawed his way back to
this title shot. He has put to rest the demons of his feud with Marek
Brave after defeating him last month in the "Stairway to Hell" match.
He has one last man in JJ Inc to defeat and that man is the AAW
Heavyweight Champion Jerry Lynn. Lynn has held the title longer than
any other champion and has gotten past every challenger put in front
of him with the help of Jim Jesus and JJ Inc. In April JJ Inc held a
beaten Tyler Black as Lynn slapped him in the face and
proclaimed "You will never get this title from me because wrestling
is MY life!". At the close of last months show Black called Lynn's
integrity into question when he said to beat him Lynn will have to be
the champion he "used" to be. For Black, he must defeat the man he
looked up to for so many years and for the champion he will have to
dig down deep and pull out his best effort in years to turn back the
challenge of one of the fastest rising stars in the industry. The
stage is set for what may be the most exciting AAW title match in
history!
MAIN EVENT- FAREWELL MATCH- LAST MAN STANDING
"The Gold Standard"
ERIC PRIEST
vs
"The Miracle Man"
CHANDLER MCCLURE
Emotions will be running high as Eric Priest steps into the ring for
the final time to seek revenge on the man who has cost him not only
the AAW Heritage title but also his shot at the ultimate goal of the
AAW Heavyweight belt. McClure has been a thorn in Priest's side ever
since recovering from his various "injuries" earlier this year. His
interference cost Priest his one year win streak and the Heritage
title in February. Priest got a measure of revenge when he posed as
the "Golden Vampire" and defeated McClure in May. The issue looked to
be over as Priest focused on Jerry Lynn. "The Gold Standard" had
already announced he did not have much time left in the business and
needed the AAW title to complete his career. That dream was taken
away from him when McClure and his new protégé Jordan McIntyre cost
Priest the title which leads to this match on Saturday night. Priest
demanded McClure face him one last time and McClure accepted adding
the "Last Man Standing" stipulation. Look for both men to pull out
all the stops in this one as the match will go on until one man
cannot answer a ten count. Priest has promised that not only will his
career come to an end on Saturday but McClure's will as well. Win,
lose or draw Priest's legacy in wrestling has been cemented but
the "Gold Standard" wants to prove to himself and everyone else that
his body can make it through one more match.
AAW HERITAGE TITLE
KROTCH (c) w/ Nikki
vs
JIMMY JACOBS
Last month Krotch once again defied the odds and walked out of the
Eagles Club with the Heritage title. Jimmy Jacobs started the evening
by confronting the legend himself Terry Funk. After an altercation in
the ring Funk returned later in the night to nail Jacobs with a DDT
and allow Krotch to cover him for a three count. Krotch's night was
not over as the match was a three way dance and he still had to
defeat his old rival Arik Cannon. After Joey Eastman and Nikki both
got involved Krotch was able to pull of the upset and pin
the "Anarchist" to become the new Heritage champion. The party may be
over for the youngster now as Jacobs has immediately used his return
match clause and will meet the new champion at Scars and Stripes.
Jacobs has promised that not only will Krotch's title reign be the
shortest in AAW history but he will also be punished for humiliating
him last month.
ADRENALINE OVERDOSE WILL DEFEND THE AAW TAG TEAM TITLES
Bryce Benjamin and Shane Hollister stepped up to the plate last month
when Dash Phoenix was injured at the hands of the Northstar Express
and Joey Eastman and defeated them to become the new AAW tag team
champions. Saturday night this exciting young team will put the belts
on the line for the first time and have an open contract. The tag
team division is deep in AAW and whoever is awarded the title shot
will be ready. Expect the kind of great tag team action AAW has
become known for in this one.
GRUDGE MATCH
JOSH RAYMOND
vs
SILAS YOUNG
A highly anticipated rematch of the "Fate of Eight" finals as the man
formerly known as Josh Abercrombie does battle with the highly
talented Silas Young. Raymond has done a complete turn around since
using a low blow to defeat Silas and earn an AAW title shot whenever
he chooses. After a vicious attack on Silas the rematch has been
signed. Both of these men are now in a position to cement themselves
as main eveners in AAW and this match may be the show stealer. Their
match at the Fate of Eight was an excellent contest and now that it
has become personal this match will definitely be more intense.
LEATHER STRAP MATCH
THE PHOENIX TWINS
vs
THE NORTHSTAR EXPRESS w/ Joey Eastman
A long standing feud between two of the top teams in the country
comes to a head this Saturday. After the Twins dropped Joey Eastman
as their manager and humiliated him, Eastman had been plotting for
retribution. Last month the Twins were ready to cash in their title
shot when they were attacked by the NSE and whipped with Eastman's
leather belt. Dash Phoenix was then held by Corbin and Cruz as
Eastman gouged his eye with the belt buckle. Now these four men meet
in a leather strap match with the Twins looking to settle the score
once and for all. Both teams want to get back in title contention but
you have to wonder if the injury to Dash Phoenix will give the
Northstars the advantage in this one.
CHALLENGE MATCH
EGOTISTICO FANTASTICO
vs
RYAN BOZ
This match came about after a confrontation in the lockeroom a few
weeks back. Boz warned Ego if he had a problem with Jimmy Jacobs we
would have to go through him. Ego later cost Boz his match in
the "Fate of Eight" tournament and now these two will go one on one
at Scars and Stripes. Both men have looked impressive as of late and
Ego will need to use his speed and agility to combat the size and
strength of the monstrous Boz.
