[Breaking News] Freebirds Say Buddy Roberts Is Out, Precious Is In

The new LCW United States Tag Team Champions, The Freebirds, Michael "P.S." Hayes and Jimmy "Jam" Garvin announced today that Buddy Roberts would no longer be their manager and that Precious would fill the position previously occupied by Roberts. Hayes said their decision was based only on fact, "We're with Buddy for months and nothing. Precious appears once and we win the titles. Buddy didn't even believe in us anymore. He didn't even show up last night. We're better off without him."

Precious, who is married to Jimmy Garvin, was looking forward to making an impact in LCW. She made quite an impact during her debut when she appeared in the entrance way during The Freebirds match with The Steiner Brothers. While Rick Steiner was distracted enough by her presence at ringside, he was really distracted when she removed the full-length fur coat she was wearing to reveal that she was wearing a bikini underneath. This distraction of Rick Steiner allowed Jimmy Garvin to rollup Steiner for the pinfall and the win to become the new LCW United States Tag Team Champions, their first titles since joining LCW in December of 2005.

In a moment that might have been more than coincidence, the LCW Board of Directors announced that they were releasing Roberts from his contract. LegendsChampionshipWrestling.com tried to contact Roberts, but he was unavailable for comment.
