There's only one thing wrong. There's no way that The Scraps and WWW are on the same level. The Scraps totally decimate WWW, Jake! But their bassist is a sexy bitch...

I'm completely game for that. As long as we don't have to be nekid. Board shorts and wife-beaters will be just fine. And I think we should both do five shots of Jack Daniels before we wrestle with no food in our system. Shots will be paid for by Brent Snyder! Hooray, thanks Brent!
