el Fans, here we are at 500! The BRL’ 500 to be exact and what a trip it has been. Imagibash 15 was a huge success and the action got so intense that your old pal the Teamster had to get involved. The exclusive coverage of that ppv is in this very issue so I won’ spoil it and give away the ending like how the ship sinks in Titanic.

The Johnny . Cup is down to just four and here are the representatives from each of the IWAR’s promotions;

• BRL Final: Sir Gunther Kinderwacht (last year’s winner) • CWL Final: Jane the Vixen Red (BRL, winner of 2017 Unknown Wrestler League) • IWL Final: Nasty Norman Krasner • NWL Final: Ricky Kyle

In one semi-final, we will see bitter rivals Kinderwacht and Red off while in the other the red-hot Ricky Kyle will face the, well, Nasty Normal Krasner. One of these four will win The self-professed “Greatest wrestler the 4th Johnny B Cup and the results will determine the breakdown of the prizes. ? in the world” debuted in the NWL in 2012 and taunt-filled promos earned him many enemies. The 26th Marano Memorial is also down to the final 5… FIVE? Well since the Suburban Hell His “Teamster Challenge” offered a prize to any Savages: Agent 26 & Punk Rock Mike and Badd Co: Rick & Rick Riley went to a NWL rookie who could capture a Tag Team title draw, we will have a rematch. The winner will advance to face Sledge and Hammer who won with him, but turned ugly when he kept blaming the CWL bracket. The other semi-final match up will see the IWL’s winning team, Graham them when they didn’t win. His hapless singles Underwood & Kennedy Cage face off against recent NWL graduates, Alphamale XD & The career turned around after he upset former Patriot who now call the ASL home with a trip to the finals on the line. partner Major Trent Mercier in a Loser Leaves the NWL match, but peaked with his one and The summer heats up with more great events, but they are about to get bigger and here’s only NWL title win. His big mouth got him in why. The IWAR Competition Committee oversees the IWAR World Championships and the trouble often and his taunting of the “True IWAR-wide events that run throughout the year. We hit a snag in that the various events Wrestler” .. Hannon exploded into a bitter were offering the winners a shot at the IWAR World champion, but at the same time, the feud that climaxed in another Loser Leaves top Commissioner’s champions were competing in those title matches as well. Having one Town match. Hannon destroyed Teamster to multi-man match is novel, but having them all the time kills the special nature and also send him packing, but he was outraged when a stacks the deck against the champion and challenger who are looking to settle this between few weeks later a man calling himself the them. So we decided to create a secondary championship to the IWAR World championship “Midnight Teamster” appeared on the roster! that will be defended exclusively against the winners of the IWAR events. We let the fans Hannon tried to reveal the true identity of the vote on what to name the new title on the IWAR Network Facebook page and the winner is… man who claimed he was not the Teamster, The Championship! I won’t got into how awkward that name may be for some but in fact his twin brother. Eventually the of the folks around the IWA and IWAR office due to the history with Johnny Revolution but Teamster returned to briefly joined forces with instead announce that the winner of the 3rd Annual will also be crowned as Hannon, but when he graduated from the NWL, the new Revolution Champion! The winners of IWAR events will now have a title to Teamster decided to pull a Top Gun and stay on compete for and I’ have to know better than to let the internet make big decisions. as a backstage coach at the NWL to ‘give back’. When controversial IWAR Commissioner Johnny Oh hey and don’t forget all the other events like the 5th Annual Series, the Revolution Sr. was dismissed by IWA President 8th Triple D Cup Six-man Tournament or the 10th Tag Team Derby because the greatest stars Johnny B., The Teamster who was promoted. don’t just win, they win big and nothing is bigger than winning in the IWAR.

It proved not to be enough and while Spur gave it his best shot, but was unable to overcome the overwhelming odds , the winner was Chief Fox and Big Bad Red Fox.

NO DISQUALIFICATION MATCH: “MONEY DRIVEN” MIKE SEBASTIAN vs. 5% SPANISH MATT RODRIGUEZ Shooter Simmons: The between these two has been growing, but on a big stage, Mike stepped up and put a whuppin on Rodriguez until some underhanded tactics turned the tide. Luthor Alexander tried to help Matt by sliding the Money Belt into the , but Mike DDt’d Matt onto the belt to get the win while Luthor snuck off with Mike’s belt.

SIX-MAN (Oksana in cage above the ring): STRIKER, TONY DIME & BRADOCK MOON vs. JAKE SCARLET, ALEXI SMIRNOFF & DRAGON DE ORO Bossy: Since Striker returned he resumed his feud with Russian Roulette and enlisted the help of Noble House to kidnap the RR valet, Oksana.

DISCIPLES OF DOOM COMPOUND MATCH: LEE SHADOWS vs. COMIC BOOK NERD Shooter: Yo this one was broadcast from the DoD’s compound and the Nerdy would-be gave it his best shot, but as we watched via remote broadcast the rookie pulled out a win out of nowhere, but after it go crazy, as GLS poured some liquid into Nerd’s mouth, the kid’s eyes turned black and he knelt before GLS?! How am I gonna sleep after this?

PINFALLS COUNT ANYWHERE: “CANADIAN NATION” JIMMY NORTH & GUNNER MOLSON vs. LUTHOR ALEXANDER & FATTY THE BUTCHER Bossy: Back and forth action was broken up when an angry Mike Sebastian came down to get his belt back, and Luthor ran off with it. Left alone, Fatty was no match for Canadian Nation, but after Jimmy hit the Northern Lights Out, Gunner tagged himself in, and hit his Alberta Clipper to make the pin himself. After they got into a heated argument over the finish, just as they were about to fight, BRL .. Sue Plexx came out and said she had a solution, Gunner and Jimmy will face off in the 4th Annual Best of Seven Series!

STRETCHER MATCH: SIR GUNTHER KINDERWACHT vs. CHRIS ENDGAME Shooter: This was a late addition to the show, as Sir Gunther agreed to face Endgame in this bout, and they went to send each other out of the arena on a gurney. They fight spilled out of the ring and into the stands, but when both men fell from the Entrance staging onto the row of amplifiers, referee Willy Pinnem counted to ten and ruled it a draw.

IWAR WORLD SIX-MAN CHAMPIONSHIP: Von Snapp Family (Victor, Alex & Axel) © d.THE REGULATORS (James Carnage, Blackjack Robertson & Jesse Tombstone) Bossy: The long awaited showdown between the two best trios in IWAR history was a one-sided blowout as the Von Snapp Family put on a clinic of tandem that took advantage of every mistake the Regulators made to win this one in convincing fashion. The Regulators manager, Ryan Patrick said it wasn’t over and demanded a rematch!

WOMEN’S LADDER MATCH TO DETERMINE THE FIRST EVER WOMEN’S DOUBLE CHAMPION Shooter: Dang, what a match we had here as the BRL’s first ever women’s championship, the Double X title would be determined by whomever could climb the ladder to win. Pre- match favorite Queen Isabella taken out by a spear from Lexy Lane, while Gator kept Liberty Monroe and Erica Rockwell tied, up, Ava Von Snapp tried to go up the ladder, but Sassy Red used a grapevine to immobilize her and allow her sister, Jane the Vixen Red the chance to reach the top as she released the belt to become the Double X champion!

RETIREMENT MATCH: THE SASKATCHEWAN SASQUATCH vs. MADDOG DICK JACKSON Bossy: For 30 years, children around the world have rooted for the Maddog, but one child grew up with a chip on his shoulder because his hero didn’t live up to his expectations. The boy’s resentment fueled his rise up through the IWA and when word came that DJ was retiring, Sasquatch felt DJ owed him a final match to take out his rage on the beloved icon. As the fans sang along to “Electric Avenue” it was cut off by Pantera’s “Walk” as Squatch blindsided the Maddog, threw him into the stands and busted him open like a piñata! DJ wouldn’t quit, finding a way to hit his Six Gun , American Stampe, the Manchurian Sleeper and even found the opening to point to the fans he loves and hit his Dedicated DDT, but he was so weak from blood loss that the moves lacked punch. On the urging of his valet Lucy Lethal, Sasquatch kept pummeling DJ in and out of the ring., but the fan support turned from cheers for DJ to silent concern as Dick struggled to stay up. When DJ did stand, he was floored by one of the Sasquatch’s power moves. Each time the Sasquatch went for a pin, Lucy ordered him to pull up at two! The cameras showed fans worried as the Maddog’s blood turned the ring red. The Sasquatch looked at Lucy, as if seeking permission to end it, but her okay did not come. DJ staggered into the huge youngster, leaning on him, barking at him to be his own man! DJ stepped back, slapped the Squatch and dared him to finish it! To his credit, Sasquatch ignored Lucy’s commands, made the same Dedicated DDT motion DJ spent decades doing, only he pointed not at the fans, but at Jackson himself before hitting his Big Foot Stomp! Lucy Lethal protested as Ref Willy Pinnem counted 3 and a visibly emotional Squatch patted his hero on the chest before leaving. Frank Leatherman Snow came down to the ring to help DJ get to his feet and help him stand up to salute the fans for their decades of support.

STEEL CAGE TAG TEAM MATCH: BADD CO. (Rick Challenger & Rick Riley) vs. NOBLE HOUSE (Bobby Bedlam & Jimi Henchmen) Shooter: Bedlam got the mic and boasted that he has never lost in a ppv and wasn’t about to now, but it was Henchmen who did most of the work and took most of the beating as Badd Co. used their veteran experience to overwhelm Henchmen, keep him from tagging out, wear him down and finish him off with the Lift Separate as the fans roared.

IWAR WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP: James Carnage & Jesse Tombstone (IWL) vs. Von Snapps (Alex & Axel)(IWL) vs. Hack Vanderside & Slate McRock (BRL) © Bossy: This was a wild one from the start as two former champs were hungry to regain the belts, but when the Regulators were both put through tables opened the door for the Von Snapps to make their move. In one corner Axel rolled up McRock, while Hack rolled up Alex with both counted to three for a pin, as a result the match was ruled to be a draw.

SPECIAL LUMBERJACKS MATCH: FRANK LEATHERMAN SNOW vs. HOT $TUFF ADAM CA$ Bossy: Snow stood along in the ring as Ca$h came out and introduced his special lumberjacks; Barbaro, Lex Diamonds, Tommy Challenger, Endgame, Johnny Dream, Ultimate Ninja, Desperado, Brian Flamingo and C. the Body B. all one-time rivals of the Leatherman! Snow tried to keep an eye on his old foes, which allowed Adam to take control early and Ca$h tossed FLS out of the ring to let his old foes to take cheap shots. Adam telegraphed a move and that let Snow take over and focus on Ca$h’s ankle. When Endgame tried to get involved, FLS slugged Erik to the floor! Adam went for his Hot $tuff $uperkick, Snow caught his foot and turned it into a standing ankle lock. Adam found the chance to roll out of the move, but the veteran pulled the upstart into the middle of the ring and locked it on again. Unable to reach the ropes or reverse the hold again, Ca$h was unable to ignore the pain and tapped out as the fans cheered. After the match, as EMTs tended to Ca$h’s leg, Snow said something to Adam before victoriously walking off.

IWAR WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP: MEGA-MATCH: AGENT 26 (BRL) © vs. THE GREAT DAVID (IWL) vs. UNKNOWN vs. UNKNOWN vs. UNKNOWN Shooter: Jimbo we didn’t know what to expect, but after a few minutes of Agent 26 fending off The Great David, the countdown revealed Blank (CWL) to the 3rd entrant and he powered through the others until the countdown hit again and Da Black Superstar Bobby Bedlam (BRL) strolled out, but due to the NO DQ stip, he first sent his Noble House members in to attack Blank and David! A26 managed to escape he power show by Bobby, but The Teamstser threatened to eject Bedlam from the match if his crew didn’t leave! Bossy: The fans erupted as poplar rookie Ricky Kyle (NWL) was revealed as the final member of the match and with the outside interference gone, all five men went to battle. David went for his finisher on Blank, but Bedlam hit him with a Spear that sent all three to the floor while Agent 26 set a dazed Kyle for a superplex, but he blocked it and hit a top rope on Agent 26 out of nowhere. A three count later and Rick Kyle joined Phantom Striker as the only NWL rookies to hold the IWAR World championship.

Hot $tuff Adam Ca$h: Danny, we all have to come out here to do this, let’s get it over with.

Reporter 1: , Pro Wrestling Torch, going into this match, you had a lot of confidence that your Lumberjacks would give you and edge, what went wrong?

Hot $tuff Adam Ca$h: Some Rogue’s Gallery. Those geezers didn’t do much, but El Barbaro could have slipped me a bottle of his Billion Peso Tequila to hit Snow over the head with. Hot $tuff Adam Ca$h Reporter 2: , Observer, that was a solid match out there, but after the match, the Leatherman said something to you, as you were being worked on, can you tell us what he said? & Fatty the Butcher IWAR World Tag Champs (16) Hot $tuff Adam Ca$h: This is where most guys say something like ‘what is said on the field, stays on 2x IWA Tag Champs (14,15) the field” or some nonsense, but (stops and thinks) what he said to me was “Not bad for a great tag Marano Memorial (14) wrestler” but that I’ve got a long way to go. Yeah FLS said that. 9x BRL Tag Team Champs 4x Global Tag Champs Mark K. Fabe: The Dirt Sheet. Why didn’t you say anything back to the Leatherman? 33+ Tag Team titles

Hot $tuff Adam Ca$h: He’s right. (Fatty shoot Adam a look) Blood Money has done it all, have the guys in the truck pull up our stats. (the screen behind them shows their resume) Now look at all those big wins, as a team. Fatty’s had more success like that Metro win or the four Global reigns because he’s been on his own longer. I was in Power Team USA, then Fast Ca$h, then Blood Money and we are awesome, but I need to be more like my brother.

Dapper Dan Dee: Why compare yourself to The Arabian Dream Ali Atari?

Hot $tuff Adam Ca$h: Because I can be better. Alix spent last year trying to be a tag team wrestler and had the worst season of his career. He isn’t wired that way. Now me? The only time I really went solo was in the LWL when I stunned everyone and beat Montgomery and Hannibal on my own. That was something even my brother couldn’t pull off when he was in the LWL and he’s an amazing singles competitor. Look at all those titles he won multi-US, and what have I got? I’ve got a lousy IWA wide Central…. whoop… dee… do.

Reporter 3: Paul Henry, IWL, Post to Post. Have you spoke to Ali Atari?

Hot $tuff Adam Ca$h: Yeah. He called me after the match. He’s always hard on me.

Paul Henry: He’s your brother, how tough a critic could he be?

Hot $tuff Adam Ca$h: Family is always tougher on you than a stranger because their words mean VICTORIES more. (takes a sip of water) He pointed out that I kept waiting for the lumberjacks to attack rather People’s Choice Cole Steele (15’) The Extreme Icon Hannibal (14’) than using them as a distraction. I telegraphed my moves. My finisher, the Hot $tuff $uperkick is easy Mr. Magnificent J. Montgomery (14’) to hit and can come out of no where, but it is also easy to spot and defend. (takes another sip) I rely on spots that come out of tag team moves to set up my high spots. I’m too predictable, but not for long. RETIRED Randy the Ramm (17’) Dapper Dan Dee: Hold on noe, what does this mean for Blood Money? Lumberjack Zach James (16’) Big Rye’s Dignity (16’ x2) Hot $tuff Adam Ca$h: (sighs, pats Fatty on the back) I don’t know. We’ll have to talk things over for Golden Boy Bishop Holden (15’) sure, but something needs to happen. Fatty and Luthor Alexander got robbed at Imagibash, but if we’re The Dungeon (14’) Evan Adrenaline (13’) lucky, those jerks Jimmy North and Gunner Molson will destroy each other trying to win that Best of Seven. (suddenly whips his water bottle against the wall shocking the reporters) ’see, that right there ENDING SOON is an example of someone else getting a shot that I didn’t because I’m just a tag team wrestler! I was Frank Leatherman Snow the first IWAR World champion and I need to get back to into that title picture... As for Blood Money? Jimmy North (Adam looks at Fatty) I don’t know man. I don’t know. (Ca$h leaves a room in stunned silence.) Canadian Hammer Gunner Molson BRC VIII -Death warrant (15 pts) -RRW Spike (10 pts) -RRW Hammer (8.5 pts) is back!

Game Changer: the IWA designates two leagues as the IWA’s Rookie Leagues. (7.2012) For years, when rookies joined the IWA they had to wait until enough had built up to open a new league which meant delays. Once the league open the IWA gave them 17 cycles to learn the game before opening the league up to veterans. Unfortunately, this lead to veterans dominating, which frustrated the newer players so much some quit. The American Wrestling League (AWL) and National Wrestling League (NWL) were deemed the IWA’s Rookie leagues and were designed to teach new players get the most from their IWA experience. Rich Swartzenburg was the Commissioner of the AWL while the duo of Frank Snow and Matt Riley helmed the NWL. These two leagues become the IWA’s talent farm leagues and helped to dynamically grow the game.

Game Changer: The IWA adopts a new policy to determine activity and rankings (11.2013) Controversy erupted after wrestlers with (0-0) records began to claim major titles in the IWA Report, a new policy decreed that all wrestlers needed to initiate at least one, one-on-one match if they are to be considered part of the active roster. Being entered in a tag team, six-man or Battle Royal are not enough to be considered ‘active’ As a result inactive wrestlers are no longer eligible for major titles and another loop hole is closed… Another policy change is to determine tie breakers for the BIG OIL: in-league rankings when wrestlers have the same +/- win-loss record (ie, 100-10 vs 110-20) by using stars, current point flow and previous strategy total to determine which wrestler takes the higher Outlaw Bobby Jack ranking spot and with Major titles on the line, every ranking spot counts.

TBA Johnny B. “None of us saw it coming, who would stoop that low?” Maddog Dick Jackson “Jumping John Elway was the master of the DXL, the toughest league around and suddenly, he retires? Y’all knew who his pals were… do the math.” What if I told you… Some rules are not meant to be broken. Johnny Vendetta “Come to the HAL! I dared them… I’m still waiting.” Frank Leatherman Snow Former MML Commissioner, Miss Lee Honglong puts a bounty on Fatty the Butcher. “How many IWA titles did they steal? It was robbery!” What if I told you… The greatest winning streak of all time, was a lie. Rick Challenger “They hit leagues like a train, racking up belts, until they lost their edge and then poof - they were gone.” Superstar Rick Riley “Some called it Early League Manipulation, but everyone else called it what is was, cheating.” What if I told you… Thou shall not steal, except via FAX machine.

Chief Bold Gray Fox Luthor Alexander Saskatchewan Sasquatch IWA Trivia Time [ The IWA shares some tales of Johnny B. and the IWA’s early days.] Long before creating the IWA, Johnny B invented a game he called “Battle Royal” in which two players would set up plastic chess pieces (or army men) in any formation they chose. They would then take turns rolling a marble in an attempt to knock down their opponent’s pieces. His grandchildren still play it to this day. The IWA was in negotiations with Firestone to create an auto racing game during the nineties. Unfortunately, the deal began to skid out of control and DNF. Also during the nineties, Johnny submitted his “Werewolf” board game to Those Characters From Cleveland, a division of American Greetings. They changed the theme to capitalize on the popularity of vampires at the time, and added some unnecessary complications to the rules, but it still ended up as a top three finalist by their review board. Sadly, it never saw the light of day. Johnny B was a bit of a rebel while serving in the U.S. Army. One of his duties placed him in the firing range pit, where he waved flags indicating the shooter’s performance. On occasion, when an unpopular officer would shoot, Johnny and his buddies would wave “Maggie’s drawers” for every round, which was a red flag signifying that the shooter had completely missed the target. Technology has long been a part of Johnny B’s life. In the seventies, he designed a computer program which could translate a sentence from English into several other languages (technically, it bypassed translation using a sort of “universal language” he created after researching dozens of languages). His brother programmed it on a Wang minicomputer, which featured a keyboard that was in alphabetical order. Years later, Johnny was writing a program on his first home computer, a Texas Instruments TI-99/4A, to keep track of his extensive comic book collection. When the IWA was born, his second home computer was a Commodore 64; that was used to determine the match results — but, unable to afford a printer, he spent the early years pounding out every page of every bulletin on a manual (non-electric) typewriter. In 1985, before he had any idea if the game would be successful, Johnny B ordered 500 envelopes with the IWA’s return address on them from the local print shop. Due to sloppy writing on the order form (Johnny insists he wasn’t the one who filled it out), he received 5,000 envelopes instead! He took it as a sign, and the IWA ended up being the printer’s biggest customer for many years. After the IWA’s first (and only) TV commercial aired, Johnny B decided to call the toll-free number to make sure new players were having a positive experience. Rather than getting his first match free, the customer service rep. promised him a “free wristwatch.” He sighed and lowered his head, then began laughing silently. History of the IWA. The IWA Opened in October of 1985 through a blurb in the Mat Mail section of Wrestling World magazine. The first league to start was the All Star League which held it’s first matches in November. Then came the Battle Royal League and then the Grand Master League. By October of 1986 there were about 15 league in the IWA. Founder of the IWA was Johnny B. a Teacher with 10 children, 8 boys and 2 girls, who ran it from his basement. By October of 1987, the IWA grew to 60 leagues. Now it has 120 leagues and when Worlds Unlimited took over the IWAA was moved to new offices in its own building. The first IWA World champion was Gorgeous Jimmy Fargher, still active in the JBL. (from the IWA Weekly Report, 1989)

The Von Snapps: Victor, Alex & Axel (CWL) - 1/2017 The Game we discovered, the friends we found and the memories we made. When I was a kid, my Saturday morning dilemma was choosing between Superfriends and pro wrestling, both told stories with outlandish villains and spectacular battles. It was matches like the / draw and the epic / Wrestlermania 3 match that made me a fan. In 1987 a classmate gave me his “” game which let players pit famous pro wrestlers against each other with a pair of six-sided dice, but inside the box was an issue of Wrestling World magazine. I was a fan of wrestling so I read every page including the one advertising a game that was just a buck to try out of Ohio called the Imaginary Wrestling Association (pictured below). My first wrestler was an ode to Ricky Steamboat called The Hawaiian, my first league was the Clawing Cat League and as luck would have it, the CCL was loaded with great players like Kevin Starr, The Masked Marvel (Dick Jackson) Ricky Sessions, The Noble Sheik, Lord Henry Carlisle, The Terminator, Purple Hays, Sexy Stan Jaymes and Mel Macho Man McCauley. I asked the IWA to send me bulletins from the best leagues in the game and I few weeks later I had bulletins from the ASL, BRL, GML and PPL. (I used to highlight my opponents) They were all good, but the GML was on another level with an engrossing multi-page Commissioner’s Report, numerous feuds, angles and characters that built a roster that could rival the pros with stars like, Dr. Death Dave Barton, Raging Bull, Alex the Hammer Hart, Hustler Harley Anthrax, Slade the Warlord Cross, Blitzkrieg, and the mega-popular Powerteam USA: Hot Rod Hoven, Rich the Anvil Farrell & Chris Perkins. That inspired me to join in and Superstar Rick Riley made a splash by piledriving Powerteam USA’s valet, Crystal through a Craig Johnson, Cougar Buchanan, Frank Snow table which brought the entire league down on ol’ RR. Sadly the creative minds behind the report and the GML went Scott Franklin & Matt Riley. into decline, so I transferred RR to the BRL and here we are today. IWA Stablecade Winners While the GML soon closed, I still have those GML bulletins and try to keep that spirit of engagement, rivalry and 2005- SCA: Squared Circle Assassins (499.2) story telling alive in the pages of the leagues I play in today. Along the way I’ve made some of the best friends in my 2006- FOE: Foundation of Excellence (499.4) life through the IWA and hell I met my first love Nancy Sodano through Kevin Starr’s manager, Dave Adams even 2007- TV: Terminal Velocity (499) though she was a huge fan and I was a Ric Flair fan! When I try to explain the IWA to someone, I’ve 2008- ACE: Alliance of Championship Excellence (497.6) always said it is Pro Wrestling + Dungeons & Dragons + the Postal Service, but really it was a great way to make 2009- friends across the world long before the days of the internet. The picture to the right is backstage before my first live 2010- match (which is on YouTube if you have 20 minutes you don’t want to get back) on a Southland Championship 2011- 7S (d. AE via point flow) (501) Wrestling show promoted by Scott Franklin, refereed by Frank Snow and called by former GWF Announcer, Craig 2012- BURN: Brotherhood Unified of Rule Nations (500.2) Johnson in Lawrenceville, GA on 6/22/1992. Those were some fun times, but an in-ring injury cut my career short so I 2013- APO: Authorized Personnel Only (496) was lucky to have the IWA as an outlet to funnel my creative wrestling energies. 2014- Classic (498) Back in the day, a number of players called or stopped by the Office and I was lucky enough to speak to Johnny B. 2015- KDSN: Kardashian (498.2) a few times as we discussed my design for a NASCAR game and Handbook for would-be Commissioners, but what I 2016- VIRUS (499.2) think back to know was his genuine affection the players and the characters they created in the IWA. So thanks to 2017- VIRUS (499.6) Johnny B. and his family for keeping the IWA open through the good times and slower times when many other businesses would have cut their losses and folded. BRL’S IWA Hall of Famers; Rick Challenger, Frank Thanks to the players who supported the IWA, from the folks who run one wrestler in the game like Money Driven Leatherman Snow ,Crusher McQ, Thunderbolt McQ, Mike Sebastian, Corey Stedman and John the Mask Smith to the big roster fellas like Sly Smith, Anthony Dudick and Hollywood Hamilton, Sensation Scott Hamilton, Beautiful Matt Yunick whose rosters helped sustain countless leagues that would have otherwise closed. Bobby Blanchard, The Stunner Steve Anderson, Thanks to the Commissioners who put in hours of time into the game in a position that is often thankless and Dangerous Daryl Bonilla, John the Butcher Berkowitz, subject to harsh criticism, but your vision has helped to make leagues like the Mid-Atlantic Regional, Lone Wolf, Evil Tommy the Butcher Berkowitz, Smiling Jack Manitoba, Clown, Extreme Poison and many others find a special place in our IWA hearts.

League= 50, TV=25, Regional=10, Battle Royal=10, Tag Team/Six-man= 15, TV Tag/TV Six= 5pts BOLD = Active THE STORY BEHIND THE COVER – The Battle Royal League turns 500 We tried to capture the passing of time and how a game many people say is still the same, has changed. If there are changes for the better, the credit goes to the people who have stuck with the IWAR despite the heat of those who resisted change and showed the patience to let the players show us what they got. Thanks to all our IWAR Team and the players who has supported us for all these years.

THE BRL’S ROAD TO 500 includes these bonus prizes  $100,000 bonus the TV, Regional, Tag Team, TV Tag, Six-man & TV Six champs, $500,000 bonus to the BRL champion and a $1,000,000 bonus to the winner of the BRL’s Battle Royal.  Every 10th wrestler eliminated in from the Battle Royal will drop that many losses from their record. (10th = 10 losses, 20th = 20 losses, etc) and the winner of the Battle Royal will drop one loss for each wrestler in the Battle Royal. (if there are 62 wrestlers, then 62 losses will get dropped!)  The highest strategy belonging to a wrestler who submitted Trash Talk will be awarded a new BRL wrestler with a record of (500-0)!  The highest scoring win belonging to a wrestler who submitted Trash Talk will be award a special edition of the WWE Triviamania Game!

IWL & NWL Commissioner  You can still scout any league in the IWA for just $1.00 to see if it is a place you’d like to play.
