I’m Shelly Marks with your House Show Report for 12/23.. we’re two days away from the Christmas special and 6 days away from the big retirement match, however, fans here in Chicago have just seen an excellent card.. as you saw, Johnny Fate walking by, very very bloody.. however, he was the winner in tonight big Dog Collar match. He nailed Mack Truck with the Fate Pipe to get the win. They’ll meet again on Christmas Day in an I Quit Match.
Also on the card, it was Mariko besting Davey Scott with her patented Spinning Crescent kick at the 20:02 mark.
With Ricky Hype at ringside, watching for interference, it was Anthony Hazard defeating Miguel Thunder in 12:13. Hazard wins with the Reserve Powerslam.
Tara Quinn with a win in 26:34, over the new sensation Ricky Hype.. again Hazard was at Ringside.. we’ll have to figure out what this little alliance is all about. I wonder if Hype will be joining the Elite. Quinn with a win tonight, however, reversing a small package.
Rainbow Warrior fell victim to Mr. America.. who won in 8:34 with his Made in America piledriver.. Mr. America has a non title match against TV Champion, Shogun coming up on Friday. I recently heard Mr. America complaining about the non title ruling, however, since it IS the TV title, with the exception of the big Christmas special, that title is to be defended only on TV.
We can recap tonight’s action.
America over Warrior, Quinn over Hype is what was the best match of the night.. Hazard over Thunder.. Mariko over Davey Scott and in the Dog Collar match, it was Fate using Fate’s Pipe to get the win over Mack Truck.
I’ll be back tomorrow from Cleveland for another OWA House report. For the OWA, I’m Shelly Marks!

Shelly Marks here for your Christmas Eve house report. We’re in Cleveland, Ohio.. and as you could see in the ring, Rachel Ryan and Gustaffson just defeated OWA Tag Team Champions, The Chiefs in only a matter of moments. Official time for the match was 53 seconds and this crowd went crazy.. Tomorrow night, Ryan and Gus have earned themselves an OWA Tag Team Title shot at the big Christmas Night Extravaganza in Cincinatti!..
In other matches on the card, The Shocker defeated Xyz in 7:32.. Asian Invasion and Wendy Ryker battled to a double countout in 12:10..
In another wild match, which saw Ricky Hype standing in the aisleway watching with intereste.. Fast Fighter defeated Chaos in what most would consider an upset. However, it was The Shocker making good on the promise of Anthony Hazard, as he attacked Chaos, putting him to sleep with his patented Sleeperhold, before throwing him back in the ring, where Fighter got the three count.
Tomorrow night is the big Christmas special.. OWA Champion Traci Lane will defend that title against former champion Executioner. OWA TV Champion Shogun, will defend against Mariko..

Christmas Day, 1996
[In the ring, Executioner holds the OWA Championship belt.. also kneeling in the ring, is Traci Lane.. Executioner reaches over to help her to her feet and hands her the OWA Championship Belt, then raises her hand. Camera pans back to Shelly Marks who's standing in the aisle.]
[Marks]
I’m Shelly Marks, and this is your OWA House Show report for the spectacular Christmas card in Cincinatti.. and I’ll tell you what.. this crowd got a treat. We’re talking about a 60 minute draw in the World title match. Executioner and Traci Lane taking it the distance on this one, with Traci retaining the title.
Let’s run down tonight’s card:
Freddy Fever rolled up Asian Invasion following a low blow, in 5:43. Mr. America made his way ringside for this one.. and he and Asian Invasion got into some words after the match.
In that special grudge match, Anthony Hazard and Amazon Woman fought to a double countout.. it was obvious from the start that this one was going to get out of hand. Amazon Woman trying to find out why Hazard had so much animosity towards her. Ricky Hype again at ringside for this match, sitting ringside with the fans.
Mack Truck defeated Johnny Fate in an I Quit match, with Mack using the scorpion death lock to get the submission.. after the match, Fate again attacked Truck. That match ran 24:12
Rachel Ryan and Gustaffson defeated The Chiefs by disqualification, in 14:54, when Stallion brought a chair into the ring and hit Gus with it. Ryan and Gus then chased the Chiefs out of the Arena. Chiefs retain the OWA Tag Team Championship.
OWA TV Champion Shogun defeated Mariko with the palm blow in 18:42.
And in our main event, OWA Champion Traci Lane and Executioner battled to a 60 minute time limit draw. Traci Lane retaining the OWA Title.
Tomorrow, the OWA will be in St. Paul Minnesota.. feature match for the OWA Tag Team Championship as the Chiefs take on Brawlers Inc. For the OWA, I’m Shelly Marks on the road with the Online Wrestling Alliance.

[Scene is not in the arena as the past house show reports have been, but in back entrance where a paramedic team is loading someone into an ambulance. Family members, Monty, Stacks, Rainbow Warrior and Shogun look on... camera pans back and we see a frazzled Shelly Marks as she finally acknowledges the camera]
[Marks]
It’s the day after Christmas and “Harley” Tara Quinn was just NOT in the Christmas spirit. In a match scheduled to be Johnny Blades vs. Tara Quinn, Johnny Blades hasn’t yet made it to the arena from the airport, and finally we were told that his plane was delayed and he wouldn’t be here for the match. Local matchmakers quickly found a replacement in Jetstream. Here is some handheld footage, taken by a fan at ringside.. see for yourself what happened.
(footage)
[In the ring, the announcer is introducing Jetstream. Camera pans awkwardly to Tara Quinn who does NOT look happy at all with this replacement.. then all of a sudden she smiles.. Jetstream and Tara approach each other in midring and all of a sudden Quinn sprays something in the eyes of Jetstream who goes down and is blinded. Tara leaves the ring and brings in a chair and bring it down on the leg of Jetstream. She pulls him partway out of the ring, leaving his leg hanging over the edge and then drives her knee to the knee of Jetstream and a loud *pop* is heard. Several referee and security people storm ringside area and Tara fights them off for a bit, until they finally subdue her. Medical personnel quickly come to ringside and carefully place Jetstream on a stretch.. his leg is obviously and visibly broken. ]
(end of footage)
[Shelly]
Now we’ve found out that Tara used mace to take down Jetstream. Now no one knows what made Tara snap like that.. many have felt that she’s a bit unstable to be in professional wrestling.
(Sirens sound as the ambulance takes off)

The Family has refused to comment on this situation at this time. In other matches tonight:
The Chiefs defeated Brawlers Inc in 42:12 to retain the OWA Tag Team Championship. Stallion pinned MegaDiesel after a double DDT.
Tom Tomorrow defeated Billy Smith via disqualification in 10:32 after Smith used a chair on Tomorrow.
Miguel Thunder pinned Fast Fighter in 17:35 after a piledriver.
And Davey Scott pinned the Rainbow Warrior in 12:51, with a superkick.
Tomorrow night, we’ll be in Denver for an OWA 6-man title defense, obviously The Family will have to replace Jetstream in that encounter. Executioner to face Gustaffson and much much more. For the OWA On the Road, I’m Shelly Marks.
