Landmark Arena, Cornelia GA

* * * * *

The show opens with Tony Schiavone & John "The Body" Johnson standing by the ring with the studio crowd going wild behind them.  Schiavone welcomes us to the show and lets us know that we've got a great week in store with Matt Sydal in action, the tag team debut of Chip Day & Murder-1 as Kraken, and Marti Belle versus Krissy Vaine.  Johnson chimes in and lets us know that he'll have "The Living Legend" Larry Zbyszko on The Body Shop this week and that C.W. Anderson will defeat "The Phenomenal" A.J. Styles to enter the Georgia Heavyweight Championship Grand Prix in our main event.

Anthony Henry and J.D. Drake join Schiavone at the podium as Schiavone asks about the Luck-of-the-Draw match for the Georgia Tag Team Championship this week at the Georgia Mountains Center in Gainesville.  Henry explains that luck means nothing and all that matters is that The WorkHorsemen will prove they are the best team in the sport by beating every team in GWE twice in the same night and walking out with the titles.

Tony Schiavone welcomes Caprice "Ice" Coleman and Cedric Alexander, the C&C Wrestle Factory, to the studio as the crowd cheers for the young fan favorites.  Schiavone asks their thoughts of the Luck of the Draw double elimination match coming up this week in Gainesville to crown the first Georgia Tag Champions.  Coleman speaks for the team saying that it's a privilege to be selected for this match and that it's sure to be a big test for them, but at the end of the day, champions are built, not born, and no one builds better than the Factory.  Schiavone thanks the C&C and tosses to commercial as we go to black.

We come back from break with Tony Schiavone standing at the podium to welcome the legendary Rock & Roll Express.  The studio audience goes wild as Ricky Morton and Robert Gibson make their way out and Schiavone says he knows the Express is looking forward to Gainesville this week.  Morton says he and Robert are heading to Gainesville with one thing in mind going into Gainesville and that's the Georgia Tag belts.  He and Robert know it'll be a long night and a tough fight, but that's just rock and roll and that's just fine by them.  The crowd cheers as the Rock & Roll leave and we head up to the ring for our next match.

We come back from commercial to John "The Body" Johnson in the ring, "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to The Body Shop!  Here, I talk to only the best, the finest professional athletes in this sport today.  And I can think of no better first guest than a man that is sure to be a future, if not the first, Georgia Heavyweight Champion.  It is my honor to welcome to the Body Shop... "The Living Legend"... Larry Zbyszko!"

Larry Zbyszko makes his way to the ring, dressed in a fine suit, and shakes hands with Johnson.  "The Body" asks his thoughts on the Georgia Championship Grand Prix coming up and his qualifying match next week against Suge D.  "John Johnson, you are a man of intelligence and character.  That's why it's a pleasure to be on your show.  As for the Grand Prix, it's a mere formality.  In the game of human chess, I have no equal.  Suge D, you will find that out next week when you're staring up at the lights thinking, 'Checkmate.'"

Johnson thanks his guest as the crowd boos and jeers and we go to commercial.

The voice of Freddie Miller comes across as "Hot Girls In Love" by Loverboy plays and the commercial for this week's live event in Gainesville plays.  "Georgia Wrestling Evolution comes to Gainesville!  See all the action as the Georgia Tag Team Championship is decided in the Luck of the Draw Double Elimination match!  Krakan, the team of "Do or Die" Chip Day and "The Urban Legend" Murder-1; C&C Wrestle Factory, Caprice "Ice" Coleman and Cedric Alexander; The WorkHorsemen, Anthony Henry and J.D. Drake; and the Rock & Roll Express, Ricky Morton & Robert Gibson; will face off starting at 8pm for the Georgia Tag Titles!  8pm bell time, door open at 7 at the Georgia Mountains Center, Gainesville.  Don't miss a second of the action from GWE!"
