Gov B to Launch BCW Inquiry?

Sources say Old Gov’nuh Bentham S. Grantham was none too happy to see a Grizzly Bear on last Saturday’s BCW card. The Bluegrass promotion’s Arch-Enemy burned up the phone lines to SCSA chairman Wallace Wolf, who sanctioned the bout. We hear BCW Commish Tom Schmidt hung up the phone on the old boy. More fines and sanctions may be on the way for the promotion that lives on the edge. Did anyone think to ask the Bear? Growl….A source tells us an A-List shin-dig is planned for Head Referee Frank Kincaid’s twenty-fifth anniversary with the promotion. We’ve had a sneak peek at the guest list, and oh, how your dear Franny hopes to snag an invite to spend an evening among the Bluegrass elite. Never fear, dear Reader. Has anyone seen noted BCW scribe and resident Germantown louche Chuck Phoenix lately? Chucky, baby, call me and see if I’m free on the 4th….Rumor has it that former BCW Women’s Champ Louise Ventura tore up the locker room after her recent defeat to the loathsome V. Vazarenko. Word is the platinum blonde good girl got sent home to Cali for a week along with the repair bill….Maybe she can work on her “Beach Body” while there so the Eastern European won’t be so quick to escape her clutches next time….We hear BCW spokesman Tony Grier tried to “Big Time” the waiter at The Eagle’s Nest a few nights ago. “I haven’t paid to drink here since your man kicked me in the [expletive deleted],” our witness reports the mouthpiece shouting….When reached for comment, the former carnival barker had nothing to say. Back to the midway with ya!…. We wonder, who was that Masked Man spotted at Benny Longoria’s last Saturday with a dame on each arm? We hear the champagne flowed that night and there was plenty of love in full view of everyone. Say, wasn’t that Butch Backstrom’s main squeeze on the right hand? A source confirms that Backstrom demanded a chain match to settle his score….We wonder which handsome Tag-Team got thrown out of the Three Clocks early Sunday morning?…Rumor has it trouble’s a brewing between Kip Bailey and a “Marvelous” one. Who might that be? We know the reason but our lips are sealed. We’ll all find out soon enough, my lovelies….Until next week’s straight dish,

Ciao darlings,
