Special Announcement

*”Charisma” by W.A.S.P. blares through the speakers and the spotlights shine on the top of the entrance ramp. Damion Black walks out, dressed to the nines in an all-black Armani suit, hair neatly and tightly tied back in tail, and microphone in hand. Damion takes the time to shake the hands of some of the PWA faithful, thanking them for coming to the show, then ascends the ring steps and climbs between the ropes into the ring. Damion looks out and smiles at the crown, then raises the mic to his lips.*

BLACK: “Ladies and gentlemen, thank you so much for joining us as PWA enters into it’s 4th season! Everyone at PWA is here for the love of competing in the greatest sport of them all, and we are proud and honored to compete for all of you! All of us, from the locker room to the production booth, from the booking committee to the cameramen, from Gary Bloomfield to Yours Truly, we understand that you are as passionate about PWA wrestling as we are, and we thank you for your continued support! *The crowd cheers in response* Now, on to business!

BLACK: “One of biggest points of pride for me personally is PWA’s outstanding Tag Team Division. As you all have just witnessed in our last match, our tag teams can steal the show at any given time! Ever since the King of Deathmatch supercard, though, the PWA Tag Team Division is at a chaotic point. Armageddon is not competing this season, due to Ragnarok’s unfortunate injury. The Blood Brothers are also not competing as a team this season, due to Snow’s responsibilities as your Light Heavyweight Champion *the crowd pops at Snow’s mention* … and Pantaro has decided to take a brief leave of absence to compete elsewhere. That leaves our Tag Team Champions, Alpha Omega, with no clear contender for the Tag Team Championship. As the saying goes, ‘chaos is a ladder to opportunity and success for those who dare to climb’. Therefore, I have decided upon a solution to determine a number one contender for the Tag Team titles. Four teams will compete in a round robin tournament, but this is no simple tournament where a winner is decided solely by victories or points. Instead, the team that records the single fastest victory will be declared the winner of the tournament and number one contender, with a shot at Alpha Omega’s Tag Team Championship at PWA’s next supercard!

BLACK: “As for the four teams competing, I have given deep and careful thought to the matter. PWA is the land of opportunity, and two of the teams I have chosen are debuting just this season in PWA. I have chosen them for the tournament because they are brand new and this is an opportunity for each team to show their mettle and prowess, to prove themselves worthy of the PWA Tag Team Division, and to skyrocket straight to the top! The first two teams to participate in PWA’s Beat the Clock Round Robin Tournament are… Alyssa and Rebel Wyld, the Wyld Family, and Talofa and Tama of AftermathX, the Samoan Storm!” *The crowd erupts in cheers!*

BLACK: “As for our other two teams, one of them has had the opportunity and indeed as held the PWA Tag Team belts on one occasion, only to be deceived and have the titles stolen from them by underhanded means. This is their chance to right that wrong. Our third team for the tournament… King Cobra and Giant Anaconda II, The Coldsnakes! As for our final team, many people, myself included, think that this team represents the epitome of professional wrestling’s tradition and sense of honor. Their in-ring prowess has been displayed time and again, and they are, quite frankly, long overdue for a chance to become Tag Team Champions! Our final tournament entrants – The Masked Shooter and Ronnie Lassiter!” *The crowd pops huge at the revelation of the final team!*

BLACK: “Good luck to all four teams! The tournament begins on our next Assault!”
