Cover Story: FIRST TIME IN LwA HISTORY! LACEY vs MsCHIF

For over four years, the Lethal Wrestling Alliance has brought you everything from blood and violence to comedy and hilarious videos. However, the one thing the LwA has NEVER given to the public is a good ol' fashioned one-on-one LADIES MATCH! Truth be told, LwA probably will never do anything "ol' fashioned", but they are giving their fans a hell of a match up as two of the best female wrestlers in the world will be facing each other on January 5th when ROH star LACEY takes on international star of SHIMMER and multi-time NWA Champion, MsCHIF! Not only are these ladies athletic, agile, and great to look at; but even more so, they both are incredibly gifted wrestlers and can tear up a ring better than 90% of the male wrestlers around the St. Louis area!

Lacey has been proving herself in the highly respected company Ring of Honor as well as making a name for herself in promotions in Japan and all over the United States. Her opponent, MsChif, has enough credentials to fill this entire page. Considered pretty much by everyone as the greatest female wrestler to ever enter a St. Louis ring, MsChif is tough and gritty. Look forward to seeing these girls do stuff you wouldn't ever see on Monday Night wrestling...namely KICKING LOTS OF ASS.

Pg 3: STL FACES KC

St. Louis and Kansas City has a rivalry that runs deep. From the Cardinals and Royals to the Rams and Chiefs, there's just something ugly that happens when the town famous for its Arch meets up with a city known for Barbeque Sauce.

It's gonna be even uglier at "Proving Ground" because STL has a wrestling Champion and KC wants it. Shorty Biggs, born and raised in St. Louis, did the unthinkable and won the LwA Championship at Yuletide Terror a few weeks ago. In doing so, he made everyone in St. Louis incredibly proud as Shorty is unanimously accepted as a hell of a wrestler but even more so because he's a great guy. You can tell from the very first chant the audience starts of 'SHORTY, SHORTY' that they approve very much of their title holder. Add to that the fact that Shorty Biggs is making history as the first ever African American to hold the LwA Championship and you have an extremely impressive resume for Shorty.

Kansas City native Jeremy Wyatt has a polar opposite appearance and attitude. "The Rebel" as he is known throughout the country, Wyatt has wrestled in many different organizations and carries the same demeanor wherever he goes: "Who cares?". A man with an immense amount of talent but zero respect, Jeremy Wyatt is coming on January 5th to take the LwA title away from Shorty Biggs and back to his hometown of Kansas City. Can he do it? Will Shorty, who has the home field advantage, be able to stand up for St. Louis and keep what is his? We find out in one week!

Pg 8: RAW SAYS ITS ABOUT SELF RESPECT

The Post Disgrace caught up with Adam Raw as he was leaving the Gold's Gym in Fenton yesterday evening. We asked him to give us a few brief words regarding his highly publicized match against Austin Aries next weekend. Here are a few snippets of what he had to say:

"I think it's great that the LwA keeps getting opportunities to prove itself against national level names. Tyson proved it against Alex Shelly just like Dorian proved it against Samoa Joe. I am honored to get this chance against a man that many people consider to be one of the best in the world [Austin Aries]."

"I kept a low profile with my career for a long time because I was never concerned with going anywhere. Since my feud with Michael Strider last summer, I've began to appreciate wrestling and I have a fire under me that's not been there since I was younger. I've been traveling, getting out to places like Texas and such. Most of all, I've brought my game up ALOT in the past few months and I'm eager to show it against Aries."

"You know that WWE Champion Randy Orton works out at my gym? He was in here the other day and I asked him for advice on Aries and he told me to go get some tattoos and tan alot.
(Interviewer: Are you serious? Orton said that?)
"No, actually I've never talked to him. But he did look at me naked in the locker room once."

Raw ended the interview by saying, "It just goes to show you that when you wrestle for the Lethal Wrestling Alliance, you aren't just stepping into some fly-by-night indy fed that is more concerned with being wannabes and pretenders. This isn't a hobby for these guys. You only come here if you are serious about wrestling and want to go further."

Last Jack in the Box I remember in Chicago was by Senn High School, and that was a looong time ago, in a galaxy far, far away!
