Fans, here we are at 500! The BRL’s 500 to be exact and what a trip it has been. Imagibash15 was a huge success and the action got so intense that your old pal the Teamster had toget involved. The exclusive coverage of that ppv is in this very issue so I won’t spoil it andgive away the ending like how the ship sinks in Titanic.

The Johnny B. Cup is down to just four and here are the representatives from each of theIWAR’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 face off while in the otherthe red-hot Ricky Kyle will face the, well, Nasty Normal Krasner. One of these four will winthe 4th Johnny B Cup and the results will determine the breakdown of the prizes. ?

The 26th Marano Memorial is also down to the final 5… FIVE? Well since the Suburban HellSavages: Agent 26 & Punk Rock Mike and Badd Co: Rick Challenger & Rick Riley went to adraw, we will have a rematch. The winner will advance to face Sledge and Hammer who wonthe CWL bracket. The other semi-final match up will see the IWL’s winning team, GrahamUnderwood & Kennedy Cage face off against recent NWL graduates, Alphamale XD & ThePatriot who now call the ASL home with a trip to the finals on the line.

The summer heats up with more great events, but they are about to get bigger and here’swhy. The IWAR Competition Committee oversees the IWAR World Championships and theIWAR-wide events that run throughout the year. We hit a snag in that the various eventswere offering the winners a shot at the IWAR World champion, but at the same time, thetop Commissioner’s champions were competing in those title matches as well. Having one

The self-professed “Greatest Tag team wrestlerin the world” debuted in the NWL in 2012 andtaunt-filled promos earned him many enemies.His “Teamster Challenge” offered a prize to anyNWL rookie who could capture a Tag Team titlewith him, but turned ugly when he kept blamingthem when they didn’t win. His hapless singlescareer turned around after he upset formerpartner Major Trent Mercier in a Loser Leavesthe NWL match, but peaked with his one andonly NWL title win. His big mouth got him introuble often and his taunting of the “TrueWrestler” D.C. Hannon exploded into a bitterfeud that climaxed in another Loser LeavesTown match. Hannon destroyed Teamster to

top Commissioner’s champions were competing in those title matches as well. Having onemulti-man match is novel, but having them all the time kills the special nature and alsostacks the deck against the champion and challenger who are looking to settle this betweenthem. So we decided to create a secondary championship to the IWAR World championshipthat will be defended exclusively against the winners of the IWAR events. We let the fansvote on what to name the new title on the IWAR Network Facebook page and the winner is…The Revolution Championship! I won’t got into how awkward that name may be for someof the folks around the IWA and IWAR office due to the history with Johnny Revolution butinstead announce that the winner of the 3rd Annual Ladder match will also be crowned asthe new Revolution Champion! The winners of IWAR events will now have a title tocompete for and I’ll have to know better than to let the internet make big decisions.

Oh hey and don’t forget all the other events like the 5th Annual Bound for Glory Series, the8th Triple D Cup Six-man Tournament or the 10th Tag Team Derby because the greatest starsdon’t just win, they win big and nothing is bigger than winning in the IWAR. You don’t justwin, you become part of IWA history.

Oh and a message to our new readers, the IWAR is a team effort by the Commissioners ofthe BRL, CWL, IWL and NWL to take the IWA to the next level thanks to the work put in byevery star who cuts a promo, pulls off a sneak attack or shows us the reason why they arethe next big thing. I am honored to fill my roll as the Commissioner of the IWAR to helpfacilitate the action the fans are talking about when they are not talking about me comingout of retirement. Speaking of my career, there were always rumors that I was theMidnight Teamster and while I will not confirm or deny that, I will say that it is good to seethat in the absence of the IWAR Tubecast, there RENEGADE IWAR Tubecast has appeared tofill the gap. It is a little rougher around the edges, but it gets the job done. If you want toget in the action and join in, stop debating, sign up and show us what you got!

“Tag me in!” The Teamster

IWAR Commissioner & The Greatest Tag Team Wrestler of All-Time

Town match. Hannon destroyed Teamster tosend him packing, but he was outraged when afew weeks later a man calling himself the“Midnight Teamster” appeared on the roster!Hannon tried to reveal the true identity of theman who claimed he was not the Teamster,but in fact his twin brother. Eventually theTeamster returned to briefly joined forces withHannon, but when he graduated from the NWL,Teamster decided to pull a Top Gun and stay onas a backstage coach at the NWL to ‘give back’.When controversial IWAR Commissioner JohnnyRevolution Sr. was dismissed by IWA PresidentJohnny B., The Teamster who was promoted.

INDIAN STRAP MATCH: THE BID BAD RED FOX & CHIEF BOLD GRAY FOX vs. COWBOY JIM SPURJim Bossy: There was a last minute change, as Spur had to face both Fox brothers in this one and he used his USA branding iron to bust open his opponents early in this one. 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 RODRIGUEZShooter Simmons: The bad blood 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 ring, 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): PHANTOM STRIKER, TONY DIME & BRADOCK MOON vs. JAKE SCARLET, ALEXI SMIRNOFF & DRAGON DE OROBossy: Since Striker returned he resumed his feud with Russian Roulette and enlisted the help of Noble House to kidnap the RR valet, Oksana. She watched from a cage above the ring as her trio got revenge and won her freedom with a one-sided victory. After the match, Dragon help PS as Oksana unleashed a slap that sent him to the floor!

DISCIPLES OF DOOM COMPOUND MATCH: GHOST LEE SHADOWS vs. COMIC BOOK NERDShooter: Yo this one was broadcast from the DoD’s compound and the Nerdy would-be hero 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 BUTCHERBossy: 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 G.M. 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 ENDGAMEShooter: This was a late addition to the show, as Sir Gunther agreed to face Endgame in this bout, and they went all out 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 wrestling 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 X CHAMPIONShooter: 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 Allie 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!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 JACKSONBossy: 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 Smash, 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 n 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 $TUFF ADAM CA$HBossy: Snow stood along in the ring as Ca$h came out and introduced his special lumberjacks; El Barbaro, Lex Diamonds, Tommy Challenger, Erik Endgame, Johnny Dream, Ultimate Ninja, Desperado, Brian Flamingo and C. the Body B. all one-time rivals of the Leatherman! Snow tried to keep an eye on his old foes, which allowed Adam to take control early and Ca$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. UNKNOWNShooter: 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 powerbomb 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.

Reporter 2: Dave Meltzer, 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?

Hot $tuff Adam Ca$h: This is where most guys say something like ‘what is said on the field, stays on the field” or some nonsense, but (stops and thinks) what he said to me was “Not bad for a great tag wrestler” but that I’ve got a long way to go. Yeah FLS said that.

Mark K. Fabe: The Dirt Sheet. Why didn’t you say anything back to the Leatherman?

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

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, King of the Ring 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 more. (takes a sip of water) He pointed out that I kept waiting for the lumberjacks to attack rather than using them as a distraction. I telegraphed my moves. My finisher, the Hot $tuff $uperkick is easy 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.

Dapper Dan Dee: Hold on noe, what does this mean for Blood Money?

Hot $tuff Adam Ca$h: (sighs, pats Fatty on the back) I don’t know. We’ll have to talk things over for sure, but something needs to happen. Fatty and Luthor Alexander got robbed at Imagibash, but if we’re 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) Y’see, that right there is an example of someone else getting a shot that I didn’t because I’m just a tag team wrestler! I was the first IWAR World champion and I need to get back to into that title picture... As for Blood Money? (Adam looks at Fatty) I don’t know man. I don’t know. (Ca$h leaves a room in stunned silence.)

Roster Rundown

With Samantha Solie

*The IWAR Championship comes to the NWL! Congrats Ricky Kyle! We are proud to have you here! Chan-san nabs the Rumble In The Bronx win and the NWL League Championship. This rookie is as spicy as orange chicken! *Aaron McFleese says his goodbyes as he wraps up his NWL career. Fortune was one of the best we've seen in recent years, and it was an honor to house him here. Good luck in your future en-deavors! *Winston Smith, Jr. also departs from the NWL. While successful, his attempts to transform the NWL have (thankfully) failed. Will his message succeed wherever he ends up? *The HARD Foundation continue their impressive string of wins. What will it take to crack this team? Will Lock Down's attacks soften them up? *Black Belt Jones also leaves the NWL, successfully retaining his National Championship at Rumble In The Bronx. Yet another success story within the NWL System. Good luck, Jones! You're on your way to being one of the best in the IWA! *Ricky Kyle wins the N.O.N.C.O.N.F.O.R.M.I.S.T championship. What will happen to this “prestigious” title now? *Adam Maddox and Cole Adams continue to steamroll over just about everyone. These men are bathed in gold! *Luthor Alexander extends an offer out to Lord Drama. Will the #1 contender to the National Cham-pionship accept? Or will the DWO continue to live on? *Drama between the Drunks! Will Camper be able to forgiver Fisherman, or are we witnessing a sobering moment? *William Worthy runs down a hit list of who he deems worthy. Will his candidness come back to bite him, or has he imprinted his power over the NWL? Kris Hero doesn't seem to be afraid of the Worthy one. *Reaper attacks Drunken Camper again as their Backwoods Deathmatch went to a tie. How long will this feud continue?

All NWL players have 17 cycles to learn how to play alongside otherrookies until they graduate into the IWA at-large. This limit applies tothe players, not the wrestler, so while you may create new wrestlers,when the 17th cycle hits, you will need to transfer to a new league inorder to keep the NWL process fair for the new players who join.

When 16 rookies join the NWL, they are put into a tournament namedafter the IWA’s hometown. The Willowick Classic winner earns 5 freeNWL matches and a shot at the Rising Star championship.

League Commissioners can sanction titles that are exclusive to theirleague. In the NWL, there are 3 championships; the National, NationalTag Team and Rising Star. The National title holders are eligible toqualify for a title shot at the IWAR World champions and they defendtheir titles against the winners of various NWL events and tournaments.

IWA visionary, Bob Rogers wrote a great guide to help players createcharacters that leap off the page with Trash Talk in the form of promosand sneak attacks that shape the leagues they compete in. Is yourwrestler a heroic fan favorite, a sinister bad guy or somethingunexpected? Your promos will tell us what they look like, who they are,what they want and what they are willing to do to get it.

This is your IWA/NWL welcome packet and this has been put together to help you learn the game and get the most out of your time in the IWA. The NWL is the IWA’s only Rookie league and it is here to help you get the most out of your IWA experience. NWL Rookies has a few basic rules: 3 NWL wrestlers max, a 17 cycle limit on their time in the rookie league and stay active to stay in the action. Take this time to polish your wrestler’s persona, wage war on your rivals and take your shot at the NWL record books to see where your wrestlers stands among the stars.

In every bulletin you will get an NWL Commissioner’s Report as well as the IWA Ringside Magazine which covers not only the NWL, but the entire IWAR Network. This includes events, contests and pay per views but also other features like content from the Teamster, Official IWAR Rankings and a lot more.

IWA numbers guru, Chris Capps put together a one page introduction tounderstanding the way the holds work in the game. If you want to besuccessful in the IWA you need to study the holds so you can make abetter guess as to what they may do next, but be patient as this can taketime. With the right timing and luck your wrestler will have the belt.

Common terms used in the IWAStrats = The strategy (15 holds) you select for your wrestler.PPF = Perfect Point Flow, having a strat with values stacked highest to lowest.Drops = The two hold values that dropped down to 25 points.Flow = Setting a team strat so that the top hold values don’t overlap. IWAR = A network of leagues that work together for a better game.

The IWAR on Facebook is a great way to network with other players, learn the game and get in on exclusive online content.

Note from the IWA: These Social Media accounts are not run by the IWA itself. The IWA accepts no responsibility for its content.

Back in 2012, the IWAR Alliance (then called the Gold Rush Report) formed in order to supply an atmosphere for the creative style of play to thrive. This led to an IWA Revolution that raised the level of play and as a result a steady stream of IWAR superstars have changed the game. While the size of the IWAR has fluctuated, the talent has not and it now consists of the Battle Royal League (BRL), Continental Wrestling League (CWL), Independent Wrestling League (IWL) and the National Wrestling League (NWL). The IWAR World champions face the #1 contender (top ranked Commissioner champ) every 3 cycles, but there are inter-league events, contests and pay per views throughout the year that can give others a shot at the champ. You can keep up with the action across the IWAR Network by checking out the latest issue of the IWA Ringside Magazine on the IWA Home page or on the IWAR Network.

How do you win a belt? Anyone can challenge the Regional champions,but only the Regional champions and top ten contenders can challengethe TV champion. The League champion automatically defends againstthe TV, Regional champs and the top 5 contenders who sign the match.Anyone may challenge the Tag/Six-man champs and TV Tag/TV Sixchamps. Always enter the Battle Royal because the top finishers notonly win imagi-cash, they will also fill any vacant championships.

Guess Who? The Unknown Wrestler League is formed. (8.2004) You play against others with all wrestlers assigned a #, but no names and have no idea who is under the mask is. All wrestlers start off with a (0-0) record and the League champion gets the bonus of ‘unmasking’ another wrestler who is then eliminated from the league and has their record and earnings added to their wrestler’s home league.

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 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 ranking spot and with Major titles on the line, every ranking spot counts.

We never could have reached this milestone without your involvement. Thanks to all the players for creating memorable characters, supplying entertaining trash talk, and making our various leagues competitive and worth joining. Thanks to all the artists who freely shared their tremendous talent for the enjoyment of everyone in their leagues. Thanks to all the commissioners for taking time out of their busy schedules to provide their fellow players with engaging storylines, exciting contests, and quality newsletters, and for making each league more than the sum of its parts. Thanks to everyone who made a difference to our other players, no matter how small it may have seemed at the time; know that it mattered to us. We appreciate the effort that each of you has put into this game known as the IWA. You are the reason we do what we do, and you are the reason our game is so much fun. We're truly honored to have been a part of your lives for the past 30 years, and are looking forward to seeing everything you dream up in the years to come!”

Frank was the manbehind greats like Sheik Yerbutti, Syrian Assassin,Phantom Striker, innovations in game play andwas one of the first big roster players. Webecame good friends while exchanging letters andcalls about wrestling, my inability to win the IWAtitle, comic books, how we’d book promotions andof course all those weird pen pals we picked upthrough Wrestling World magazine. [Before email,you’d put your address in WW magazine,exchange letters with other fans and hope for thebest. That did not always go well.] One night,Frank told me he had been diagnosed with a typeof cancer called Hodgkin's Disease, but being 17 itdidn’t sink in for me, so I just I told him he’d befine. After some treatment, his cancer went intoremission and things went back to normal asFrank looked for ways to change the game. Ayear later, the cancer returned and was worse

year later, the cancer returned and was worsethan before, more far spread and his body wasn’tresponding to the therapy like before. The lasttime we spoke, cancer had nearly destroyed hisvocal cords, but his last words to me were wishingme well with my dreams of breaking into the a prowrestling business and comic book ideas.

Frank was just 24 years old when he passedaway and I wanted to name an event to honor anIWA pioneer in the game that brought us together.One of the wrestling events we both loved was theNational Wrestling Alliance’s annual tag teamtournament, the Crockett Cup, so it seemed fittingto name the BRL’s tag team tournament in Frank’shonor. It makes me proud to know that the eventin Frank’s honor has become the most prestigiousevent in IWA history. -Matt Riley

The BRL has long been a hotbed for tag teamsand the Tag Team Derby was created to giveteams a second event to compete for… When thetrios asked for an event they could compete for,the Triple D Cup was established to put a spotlight on the Desire, Dedication and Determinationit takes to succeed in the BRL… The All RookieCup is an invitational event that gives four toprookies a chance to show what they can do goinginto their second season… There have been anumber of surges that brought new talent to theBRL and in 2014 two of the big stars wantedsomething to fight for. Johnny Revolutionadmired their spunk and put a shot at the IWARWorld champion to the winner of a Best of SevenSeries. Alex Stylz is the only BOS winner to cashin on his shot and capture the IWAR title.

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 thenineties, Johnny submitted his “Werewolf” board game to Those Characters From Cleveland, a division of American Greetings. They changed the theme to capitalize on thepopularity 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 thelight 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. Onoccasion, 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 hadcompletely 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 otherlanguages (technically, it bypassed translation using a sort of “universal language” he created after researching dozens of languages). His brother programmed it on a Wangminicomputer, 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, tokeep 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 tosloppy 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 theprinter’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 thangetting 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 Latin 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 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 toldstories with outlandish villains and spectacular battles. It was matches like the Ric Flair / Barry Windham draw and theepic Randy Savage / Ricky Steamboat Wrestlermania 3 match that made me a fan.

In 1987 a classmate gave me his “Superstars of Wrestling” game which let players pit famous pro wrestlersagainst each other with a pair of six-sided dice, but inside the box was an issue of Wrestling World magazine. I was afan of wrestling so I read every page including the one advertising a game that was just a buck to try out of Ohio calledthe Imaginary Wrestling Association (pictured below). My first wrestler was an ode to Ricky Steamboat called TheHawaiian, my first league was the Clawing Cat League and as luck would have it, the CCL was loaded with greatplayers 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 mebulletins from the best leagues in the game and I few weeks later I had bulletins from the ASL, BRL, GML and PPL. (Iused to highlight my opponents) They were all good, but the GML was on another level with an engrossing multi-pageCommissioner’s Report, numerous feuds, angles and characters that built a roster that could rival the pros with starslike, 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. Thatinspired me to join in and Superstar Rick Riley made a splash by piledriving Powerteam USA’s valet, Crystal through atable which brought the entire league down on ol’ RR. Sadly the creative minds behind the report and the GML wentinto decline, so I transferred RR to the BRL and here we are today.

While the GML soon closed, I still have those GML bulletins and try to keep that spirit of engagement, rivalry andstory telling alive in the pages of the leagues I play in today. Along the way I’ve made some of the best friends in mylife through the IWA and hell I met my first love Nancy Sodano through Kevin Starr’s manager, Dave Adams eventhough she was a huge Hulk Hogan fan and I was a Ric Flair fan! When I try to explain the IWA to someone, I’vealways said it is Pro Wrestling + Dungeons & Dragons + the Postal Service, but really it was a great way to makefriends across the world long before the days of the internet. The picture to the right is backstage before my first livematch (which is on YouTube if you have 20 minutes you don’t want to get back) on a Southland ChampionshipWrestling show promoted by Scott Franklin, refereed by Frank Snow and called by former GWF Announcer, CraigJohnson in Lawrenceville, GA on 6/22/1992. Those were some fun times, but an in-ring injury cut my career short so Iwas lucky to have the IWA as an outlet to funnel my creative wrestling energies.

Back in the day, a number of players called or stopped by the Office and I was lucky enough to speak to Johnny B.a few times as we discussed my design for a NASCAR game and Handbook for would-be Commissioners, but what Ithink back to know was his genuine affection the players and the characters they created in the IWA. So thanks toJohnny B. and his family for keeping the IWA open through the good times and slower times when many otherbusinesses would have cut their losses and folded.

Thanks to the players who supported the IWA, from the folks who run one wrestler in the game like Money Driven

Craig Johnson, Cougar Buchanan, Frank SnowScott Franklin & Matt Riley.

BRL’S IWA Hall of Famers; Rick Challenger, FrankLeatherman Snow ,Crusher McQ, Thunderbolt McQ,Thanks to the players who supported the IWA, from the folks who run one wrestler in the game like Money Driven

Mike Sebastian, Corey Stedman and John the Mask Smith to the big roster fellas like Sly Smith, Anthony Dudick andMatt Yunick whose rosters helped sustain countless leagues that would have otherwise closed.

Thanks to the Commissioners who put in hours of time into the game in a position that is often thankless andsubject to harsh criticism, but your vision has helped to make leagues like the Mid-Atlantic Regional, Lone Wolf, EvilClown, Extreme Poison and many others find a special place in our IWA hearts.

The 10 Bell Salute, Remembering some of those we lost: Benjamin Iannarelli (11), Daniel Robinson (04), EdwardLedeger Jr. (15), Eric Dudick, Frank A. Marano Jr. (92), Tim Booth (06), Lee Cooper (07)

IWA Alumni who went into Pro Wrestling; Daniel Bryan, Gregory Shane Helms, Matt Hardy, Christopher Daniels,Brandon Bailey, Erik Bugg, Daryl Bonilla, John Campbell, John Gorassi, Will Boberg, Mike Frank Snow, MikeBuchanan, Scott Franklin and Matt Riley are just a few of the ones who stepped into the ring.

THE STORY BEHIND THE COVER – The Battle Royal League turns 500We 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 despitethe heat of those who resisted change and showed the patience to let the players show us what theygot. 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 lossfor 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 BRLwrestler with a record of (500-0)!

The highest scoring win belonging to a wrestler who submitted Trash Talk will be award a specialedition of the WWE Triviamania Game!

HOW TO WIN IN THE IWA – Our custom made IWA Strategy tutorialIf you are new to the IWA, learning how to pick a winning can often feel like a guessing game, but areways to increase your chances of making your league’s title page. If you just joined the NWL or having

had a hard time, email Riley1d20@gmail.com for a copy and start your winning streak.

DID YOU KNOW? – A few random notes No BRL wrestler has captured all ten regional titles, two have 9, Maddog Dick Jackson (Atlantic) and Rick

Riley (Prairie). In 1.2012 the IWA dropped the Bulk Rate option from the Match Deal options. If you want to take a temporary break from the IWA, you can store your wrestlers in the Grave Yard League

for $2.00 per wrestler until you are ready to return. 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.

Thanks to everyone who helps to make the IWAR Network the best place to play in the IWA-MR
