DING!  

When Heidi moved in to warn the Latina about her tactics, Shelly simply nodded knowingly and got off
her foe only to begin stomping away at the prone blonde.  Finally, the Barrio Beauty yanked The
Glamazon off the canvas, grabbed her by the wrist and whipped the powerhouse toward the ropes.  
When Beth rebounded, Shelly charged toward her opponent and nailed the blonde with a flying forearm
to the jaw.  Quickly, the Latina pulled her foe off the mat, locked on a side headlock before she slammed
the Firebird into the canvas face-first with a wicked sit-out bulldog that had the blonde rolling back and
forth on the mat, holding her nose.

As the crowd cheered her on, Shelly continued her attack by yanking The Firebird to her feet and laying
into her with a resounding knife-edged chop.  A second chop followed that sent Beth staggering
backwards as many in the crowd screamed out a ‘WHOOO’.  It took a third chop to drive Beth into the
nearby corner, holding her chest.  Shelly gave the blonde no breather as she quickly straddled her foe
by climbing to the second rope and then began to slam closed fists into Beth’s face.  The crowd picked
up the count at three as Heidi loudly ordered the Latina to cease her actions.  Finally, the audience
reached ‘10’ before the Barrio Beauty stopped and looked down at The Glamazon, whose nose had
begun to stream blood thanks to the relentless attack.


With The Glamazon clearly dazed, Shelly reached down and locked on a front facelock before she
pushed away from her perch and nailed Beth with a sick looking tornado DDT.  The blonde bounced off
the mat and sat up for a second before she crumpled back to the canvas.  Shelly quickly covered her
opponent and waited for a slow Heidi to get into position for the count.

ONE…



TWO…



TH-

Upset at the very slow count, Shelly got right in Heidi’s face before the lazy official threatened the Latina
with disqualification.

NIKKI:  Shelly has a legitimate beef there; she may have just caught Beth by surprise and won this
match but we’ll never know because Heidi is a very poor official.
PARIS:  I think Heidi is doing a magnificent job so far.

Working quickly to maintain her advantage, the Barrio Beauty yanked the stunned blonde off the canvas
and locked on a front facelock.  Shelly tensed for a second before she grabbed a handful of Beth’s outfit
and nailed her with a textbook snap suplex.  The blonde powerhouse was still favoring her back when the
Latina yanked her up and repeated the move; this time eliciting a howl of pain from Beth.

Shelly continued her assault as she pulled Beth up long enough to slam a stiff kneelift into her already
damaged face; the move causing the blonde to blink wildly.  The Latina then suddenly locked on a
fingerlock as though for a test of strength.  But before Beth could react, Shelly tucked her head
underneath her foe’s left arm, flipped her into the air and drove The Firebird into the mat with a Northern
Lights suplex.  The Barrio Beauty bridged out perfectly and waited for Heidi to make the count.  Once
again, the referee was slow to move.


ONE…

...

TWO…

Beth quickly kicked out of the pin attempt and then shot a perturbed look at the referee Heidi.

NIKKI:  Shelly is really taking it to Beth so far, but she’ll have to land one of her high-impact moves if she
wants to win this match.
PARIS:  She’s dreaming if she thinks she can win this match.  But don’t worry, she’s going to get a
wakeup call from Beth in a minute.

The Barrio Beauty pressed her advantage as she yanked The Glamazon to her feet and nailed her with
a stiff forearm shot.  Abruptly, Shelly grabbed her foe by the wrist and whipped her into the far corner,
running behind the blonde as she went.  Beth had barely slammed back-first into the turnbuckles when
an onrushing Shelly took to the air and nailed the blonde juggernaut with a wicked corner leg lariat that
clearly stunned the Firebird.

With her foe stunned in the corner, Shelly once again climbed the ropes while she straddled The
Glamazon and shouted to the crowd before she began to rain down stiff right hands into the blonde’s
face.  However, this time, the crowd’s count only reached three before Beth grabbed The Barrio Beauty
around the waist, walked toward the center of the ring and then drove the Latina into the canvas with a
resounding powerbomb; Shelly bouncing almost half a foot off the mat.

NIKKI:  Shelly went for another ten-punch salute but Beth had the move scouted and made the Latina
pay dearly.
PARIS:  Finally!  Now we get to see Beth rip Shelly apart.

An enraged Beth yanked her opponent up, grabbed her by the wrist and whipped her across the ring
with such force that when Shelly smashed into the corner turnbuckles, the entire ring shook.  With The
Barrio Beauty slumped in the corner, Beth strode in and slammed a trio of stiff kicks into the midsection
of her foe.  Again, Beth grabbed her opponent by the wrist and whipped her across the ring into the
opposite turnbuckles. This time, Shelly slammed into the corner with such force, she bounced out and
collapsed face down on the mat.

The Glamazon pulled the agonized Shelly to her feet and laced into her with a stiff forearm smash before
she grabbed the Latina by her wrist again and started to whip her into the opposite turnbuckles.  Beth
suddenly put on brakes and sent her foe back into the corner she had just smashed into moments
before.  With the brunette slumped in the corner, Beth walked toward the opposite corner a few steps
before she spun around and sped toward the agonized Latina.  A second later, she slammed into Shelly
with a ring-jarring spear that nearly folded the Latina in two before she staggered from the corner a few
steps and collapsed to the mat.

With a sneer on her face, Beth began to nudge the back of her opponent’s head with her boot while the
fans showered the blonde with a cascade of jeers.  Slowly, The Firebird yanked the pain-riddled brunette
to her feet only to slam a vicious knee into her mid-section.  Nearly effortlessly, the powerful blonde
showcased her strength as she lifted Shelly into the air in a gorilla slam position. Carefully, The
Glamazon walked toward the ropes and then tossed her opponent down to the arena floor!

NIKKI:  OH MY GOD!  Beth just killed Shelly!  The Glamazon tossed Shelly about fifteen feet.
PARIS:  She was just tossing out the trash.

The Glamazon exited the ring and grabbed the still stunned Shelly by the hair.  After she yanked the
Latina up, Beth hoisted her opponent onto her shoulder and wrapped a hand around the throat of the
Barrio Beauty.  After uttering a shrill scream, the Firebird ran forward and smashed her opponent’s head
into the steel ringpost.  Shelly immediately collapsed onto her stomach while she held her head and her
feet beat a tattoo into the arena from the pain.

As the sadistic Glamazon pulled Shelly up by her hair, blood streamed down the Latina’s face.  Beth
moved behind the bloodied beauty, cupped her face in her left hand while she rained closed fist after
closed fist down into her foe’s forehead, opening up the wound further.  After a half-dozen blows, the
blonde released her victim and Shelly collapsed face first onto the thinly-padded arena floor.

After the referee’s count reached seven, Beth rolled back into the ring to break up her count before
rolling back out the adjacent side.  The Firebird reached underneath the ring and pulled out a steel chair
before she advanced on the still stunned Shelly.  With a gleeful look on her face, The Glamazon hovered
behind the bloodied Latina as she struggled to get to her feet, completely oblivious of the danger behind
her.  

NIKKI:  LOOK OUT SHELLY!

When The Barrio Beauty finally stood and turned around, Beth swung from her heels and nailed the
Latina with a sick chairshot that resounded throughout the arena.  Like a mighty redwood, Shelly spun
around and fell face first onto the arena floor.  The crowd showered the blonde with a deafening round of
boos as the Firebird tossed away her weapon and rolled back into the ring to stop the referee’s count
once more.  A few seconds later, Shelly tried to rise and the damage was gorily evident; blood streamed
from her face onto the arena floor in a steady stream, forming a crimson puddle within seconds.

NIKKI:  This is horrible.  Beth has busted Shelly open with a steel chair again.
PARIS:  Yes, this is getting to be a habit.

Beth gleefully pulled Shelly up by her hair and led her over to the ringside steps.  The powerful blonde
then smashed her bloodied victim’s face into the steel steps; the impact resounding throughout the
arena.  A second face smash followed and then a third; blood splattered with each impact.  By the time
the Glamazon had smashed Shelly’s face into the stairs a fifth time, the blood soaked Latina was barely
conscious and held up only by her hair.  With a handful of her opponent’s shorts, Beth spun around and
rolled the Barrio Beauty back into the ring and quickly followed behind.

Beth showed her disdain as she began nudging Shelly across the mat with her boot; a smile written
across her face as she did.  Finally, the Glamazon pulled her bloodied opponent off the mat, lifted her
into the air and pressed the Latina high overhead with an impressive gorilla press slam.  A second later,
she drove the Barrio Beauty into the canvas; the impact resounding throughout the arena.  While Shelly
lay on the mat twitching, Beth bounced off the ropes, leapt into the air and hit a glancing kneedrop to
Shelly’s head.  Immediately, the Latina began moaning loudly as she rolled back and forth across the
canvas while holding her head.

The Glamazon gave the crowd a throat-cutting motion before she yanked the bloodied Latina off the
canvas once again and locked on a front facelock.  With a handful of Shelly’s shorts, Beth lifted her foe
into the air and then drove the Latina into the canvas with her finisher,
DOWN IN FLAMES [Michinoku
Driver II].  The Firebird slowly covered her beaten opponent and waited for Heidi to make the count.

ONE…

TWO…

THR-

Just before Heidi’s hand came down for a third time, Beth pulled the blood-soaked Shelly up and forced
the match to continue.

NIKKI:  C’mon….Beth just had the match won but now she wants to make a bigger example of Shelly.
PARIS:  Shelly brought this on herself.
NIKKI:  She didn’t ask to get blasted with a steel chair…..or to get busted open so badly.
PARIS:  Sure she did…..when she had the stupid idea to get back in a ring with Beth.

As Beth pulled Shelly up by her hair, the Latina tried to fight back by launching a few, ineffective right
hands into the stomach of her foe.  The Firebird responded with a resounding slap that send blood flying
across the ring from the Barrio Beauty’s still running wounds.  Quickly, the blonde powerhouse lifted her
opponent onto her shoulders and headed over to the nearby corner.  A horrified buzz came over the
crowd when Beth climbed to the second rope before she leapt off and drove Shelly into the canvas with
her finisher,
THE BETH VALLEY DRIVER [second rope Death Valley Driver].  The Latina bounced off the
canvas before her legs began to twitch and Beth pressed her hands into her foe’s chest for the pin.

ONE…

TWO…

THR-

Just as she had done before, Beth pulled her bloodied foe off the mat before Heidi could complete her
three count.  Still, the clearly biased official issued no warning to the blonde powerhouse.

Gleefully, Beth yanked her blood soaked foe off the mat once more before she spun the Latina around
and locked on modified double chicken wing.  Abruptly, The Glamazon lifted her opponent off the canvas
and held her in the air for a few seconds before she drove the Barrio Beauty into the canvas face-first
with a sit-out wheelbarrow facebuster.  Quickly, the blonde folded her foe’s legs and reached forward,
grabbing the tortured brunette’s arms and locking on her finisher,
THE GLAM SLAM [sit-out wheelbarrow
facebuster into a modified double chicken wing camel clutch].

With Shelly screaming in pain, Beth reached forward, grabbed a handful of Shelly’s hair and pulled her
back until she could clasp her hands across the nose and mouth of the blood soaked beauty, locking in
a modified version of
THE GLAM SLAM.  The Glamazon pulled back until the back of the Latina’s head
touched her boots and Shelly’s eyes widened in pain and fear.  With her air supply cut off and her spine
nearing the breaking point, the Barrio Beauty frantically began to tap on Beth’s arm, signaling her
surrender.  Finally, Heidi signaled for the bell, ending the match.  Still, the blonde would not break her
hold.

DING!  DING!  DING!

LILLIAN GARCIA:
 Here is your winner, by submission, The Glamazon, Beth Phoenix!

PARIS:  Just another victim for The Glamazon.
NIKKI:  She tortured Shelly too long.  In fact, why hasn’t she released Shelly?  She’s going to cripple her.
PARIS:  Now that would be a true bonus.

Once again, Heidi asked Beth to release her hold and the blonde immediately refused.  Heidi simply
shrugged her shoulders before she turned around and exited the ring, leaving a semi-conscious Shelly
to hope for divine intervention before she passed out completely.  A second later, a figure rushed down
to the ring with a steel chair in hand.  It was Mercedes Martinez.
EPISODE 4
LOCATION: THE PYRAMID ARENA [MEMPHIS, TENNESSEE]
NIKKI:  Time for a grudge match Paris.
PARIS:  More like a slaughter I think.  Shelly Martinez is insane if she thinks she has a chance against
Beth Phoenix.
NIKKI:  I wouldn’t completely count out Shelly if I were you.  After all, she does own a victory over Beth
from their days in OVW.
PARIS:  That was forever and a day ago; back when Beth was just starting.  She is a completely different
wrestler now….now she is The Glamazon.
NIKKI:  Well, first we have Shelly in the back with Haylie Duff; Haylie, take it away.
BETH PHOENIX
SHELLY MARTINEZ
LILLIAN GARCIA:  Now introducing, from Buffalo, New York, standing five feet-six inches tall and
weighing in at one hundred forty-five pounds, here is The Glamazon, Beth Phoenix!

Beth sauntered onto the stage with her trademark sneer as the fans showered her with boos.  The
powerful blonde wore a green and black leather catsuit with deep V-cleavage cutout and side cutouts,
black wrestling boots with green trim and her usual tiara-style headband.  The Glamazon flexed a couple
of times before she casually walked down the ramp toward the ring and slid inside.  Beth shared a few
words with the referee Heidi before she retreated to her corner and waited for her opponent.

LILLIAN GARCIA:  And her opponent, standing five feet-four inches tall and weighing one hundred
twenty-two pounds….she hails from Chino, California…here is the Barrio Beauty, Shelly Martinez!

Shelly burst onto the stage wearing a cut-off white wife-beater over a black triangle top, white spandex
workout shorts with a wide, black waistband, black kneepads and white wrestling boots with ‘BARRIO’
stenciled in black along the sides.  The sexy Latina urged the crowd to make some noise and they
quickly complied, raising the level of their cheers for the brunette as she struck several sexy poses.

The Barrio Beauty then rushed down the ramp toward the ring, slid in underneath the bottom rope and
made a beeline for the Glamazon.  Shelly tackled the blonde with a Lou Thesz Press and began raining
down lefts and rights on the surprised grappler.
HEIDI MONTAG
REFEREE
BETH:  Thanks, Pam.  Shelly, you gross little grease monkey….I tried to do you a favor when I smashed
that chair over your head.  I was trying to knock some sense into your head, but I see that was an utter
failure; you’re as dumb as a post.
PAMELA:  Beth, some people are beyond help.
BETH:  That is so true Pam.  And Shelly, you’re going to be beyond help if you try to do anything stupid
in the ring tonight.  God forbid, you draw my blood.  If you do, I am going to make tonight your last inside
a wresting ring.  First, I make you bleed.  Then, I will make you beg for mercy.  Finally, I will snap you in
two.  So be smart…..just lay down and avoid a whole lot of pain.  It’ll be the first smart thing you have
ever done.

With that, Beth hugged Pam and then headed off toward the stage entrance, leaving behind a smiling
Pam.

PAMELA:  Ladies, take it away.

NIKKI:  Thank you so much Pam.
PAMELA:  That's Ms. Anderson to you Nikki.
NIKKI:  Uh, okay...thank you Ms. Anderson.
PARIS:  Thanks for helping us out Pam.
PAMELA:  Anytime Paris.
PARIS:  She and I are personal friends, you know.
NIKKI:  Uh, right.  Why don’t we just go up to Lillian Garcia for the introductions?
PARIS:  Fine by me.

LILLIAN GARCIA:  This is a special 'SUBMISSION ONLY' match.  Introducing first, the referee for this
contest, Heidi Montag.
HAYLIE DUFF
BACKSTAGE INTERVIEWER
SHELLY MARTINEZ
'THE BARRIO BEAUTY'
HAYLIE:  Thanks Nikki.  Shelly, it is a bit of a surprise that you demanded this match…care to share the
reason why?
SHELLY:  Simple Haylie….BECAUSE I HATE THAT SLUT BETH PHOENIX.  Beth, you fuckin' whore; you
tried to end the careers of mi amigas, Mercedes Martinez and Melina Perez.  Then, you tried to bash my
brains in with a steel chair.  I had to have 10 stitches in my head thanks to your worthless ass.  Tonight, I
want some payback.  You may wind up winning the match but I want your blood and tonight, I am going to
get it.

Shelly shoved past a perplexed Haylie and headed down the corridor toward the entrance to the stage.

HAYLIE:  That was a very pissed off Shelly, folks.  Now, we have a special treat as we have one of our
shareholders standing by with Beth Phoenix.  Take it away, Pamela Anderson.
PAMELA:  Standing next to me is one of top wrestlers in the A.F.W. and one of the premier members of
my favorite group, the Diva Killers.  Welcome, Beth Phoenix.
BETH PHOENIX
'THE GLAMAZON'
PAMELA ANDERSON
A.F.W. SHAREHOLDER
MERCEDES MARTINEZ
PARIS:  That would have been an early Christmas present.

THWACK!

The sound of metal hitting flesh filled the air as Mercedes swung the chair and smashed it into the back
of the Firebird, forcing the blonde to release the tortured Shelly.  As she winced in pain, Beth staggered
to her feet and spun around only for The Latina Sensation to smash the chair over the blonde’s head
and send her crashing to the canvas.  Somehow, the blonde powerhouse wouldn’t stay down as she
began scrambling to her hands and knees.  Blood now dripped down her face courtesy of the last
chairshot, but despite that, on wobbly legs, The Glamazon stood.  

That situation was remedied very quickly as a still enraged Mercedes swung her chair again and brought
it down across the head of the blonde, sending the Firebird to the mat once more.  With the chair in one
hand, Mercedes leaned down to check on her semi-conscious friend, Shelly.  The gruesome sight of a
blood-soaked Shelly caused the anger in Mercedes to well up again and with evil intentions written
across her face, she turned toward the still downed Beth.  Just then, two women sped down the ramp
toward the ring.  It was Lisa Marie Varon and Amy Dumas.
NIKKI:  Uh-oh, I think Mercedes may need some help here.
PARIS:  It would serve her right for what she has done to poor Beth.
NIKKI:  Poor Beth nearly maimed her friend Shelly so it’s just bad karma coming back to her.

Amy reached the ring first and quickly sped around to the side behind Mercedes.  When the redhead
tried to enter the ring, the Latina was ready with the steel chair.  However, the distraction was a ploy as it
allowed Lisa Marie to slide into the ring and pull the dazed Beth beneath the ropes and to safety.  With a
smile on her face, Amy quickly retreated and then helped Lisa Marie lead Beth up the ramp and to the
back.

Just as the Latina Sensation went back to check on Shelly, medics finally rushed from backstage and
headed down the ramp toward the ring.  Before they got there, a figure strolled onto the stage beneath
the JumboTron; it was Trish Stratus.
LISA MARIE VARON
AMY DUMAS
TRISH STRATUS
TRISH:  Hey Mercedes, I was back here trying to figure something out.  All around the building, they have
signs saying ‘NO DOGS ALLOWED’ and yet they let you in.

The Latina began to fume and quickly asked for a microphone.  After the ring attendant handed her one,
Mercedes replied.

MERCEDES:  Crack all the jokes you want you blow-up doll, when I get my hands on you and your gang,
you won’t be laughing.
TRISH:  That sounds like a threat to me.  I don’t like threats and I don’t take them kindly.
MERCEDES:  Trish, why don’t we just settle this, you and I?  Or don’t you have the guts to face me one
on one?
TRISH:  Mercedes, you just don’t get it.  You attack one of us and you attack all of us.  Now you may
have enjoyed what you just did to Beth, but what we do to you next show is not going to be fun.  In fact,
the squeamish should probably skip the show altogether.
MERCEDES:  Bring it on puta.  I will lay out each of you little sluts and then I am going to take my time
teaching you a lesson.
TRISH:  Tell you what; I will give you a chance to get your hands on me IF you can win two matches
against my crew next show.  Are you game?  Or are you just a whiny little bitch like I think?
MERCEDES:  Trish, after I beat your skanks, I will not only teach you a lesson in the ring, but I will also
give you a public spanking that is long overdue.

The Latina threw down her mic and then helped the medics put an injured Shelly on a stretcher.

NIKKI:  Well, I guess this feud is far from over.
PARIS:  Quite the opposite; Mercedes is going to be visiting the emergency room after the next show.  I
hope her insurance is paid up.
NIKKI:  We’ll be back folks.
