Corporate America flexes its muscle in AACW

Posted: Jun 12th 2006 By: CMBurnham

Corporate America made a startling impression on All American Championship Wrestling last weekend, making their intentions apparent to everyone in attendance. It seems as if AACW has another strong faction to contend with and no one, especially AACW Commissioner Damien Strange, is safe from their form of "downsizing".

Things began on Friday in Guthrie when Talon, Michael James and Terry Pantera came out to stop 3rd Rail during his post-match beatdown of Tyson Jaymes. For 2 months, there has been a mysterious connection, almost Beauty-and-the-Beast-like between Talon and 3rd Rail. And it now appeared that Rail would listen to Talon when no one else could get through to him.

After intermission, Talon came out to the ring again with her charges and demanded that Damien Strange come out and face her to answer some questions. After Strange arrived, Talon told everyone that this was her home town as well as the home town of Michael James and Terry Pantera, but none of them were booked for matches on the card. Strange replied that there was a corporate review board in AACW who watched all the AACW stars and they were booked according to their ability to impress the board. If her associates weren't booked, said Strange, it was because they weren't measuring up. Talon was then told to take her company and leave. She complied, but informed Strange before she left that in Oklahoma City, he and all of AACW would learn what Corporate America could really do.

The following night during the Handicap Match for the AACW Tag Team Titles, where champions Trailer Park Trash and Otis defended against Beau Dalton & Overdose, Beau's valet Sahara distracted Otis from the ringside area. When he left, the full force of Corporate America struck the ring and attacked the tag team champions, resulting in a disqualification win for K. C. & J. C. This would be a bitter victory, though, as James and Pantera stacked up TPT, allowing 3rd Rail to make a running corner splash and leave the champions fallen and motionless in the ring until Otis' return.

Oklafan was able to obtain some comments from Corporate America's CEO, Talon, in regards to her team's actions Saturday: ""What happened to the AACW Tag Team Champions, Trailer Park Trash, was just a small taste of what Corporate America has in store for AACW. Since Commissioner Strange was refusing to take me and my boys, Michael James and Terry Pantera, seriously I made the decision to re-form Corporate America to show him just how big of a mistake he had made. After the acquisition of the newest member, 3rd Rail, Corporate America has proven and will continue to prove that we are force to be reckoned with. I am also looking at other promising wrestlers across the state to add to my arsenal. With me at the helm, Corporate America will be unstoppable"

At the end of the show that night, AACW ring announcer Jesse Storm told the fans that at the next show, Trailer Park Trash would defend the AACW Tag Team Titles against any 2 members of Corporate America. When asked her feelings on that tag team title shot, Talon had the following to say: "As for our title shot for the Tag Team Championship, we are going to show just how formidable we are as a faction by taking the belts off of TPT. We have been underestimated for far too long and now it is time to show people what Corporate America is capable of."
