Fighters: Caroline Whatley and Kim Dryden.
Specialty: Luscious pizza pies.
Plan of attack: Salty, sweet, nutty, bitter.
Super powers: Kim has unusually long orangutan arms, so she will be able to toss pies, woman the oven and plate dishes while standing in one place. Caroline, because of her conservative Catholic upbringing, has never smoked a cigarette in her life, therefore has highly attuned taste buds.
Favorite fruit: Blueberries, because they go pop in your mouth, and they just taste so blue.
Weapon of choice: Pizza peel; it can also be used for spankin' that ass.
Battle song: "Hit 'em up Style" by the Carolina Chocolate Drops
Any words for the opponents? Good luck, fellow truckers.
If you win? We will drink a few cold mystery brews to celebrate and dance the night away while holding the belt in the air, calling for Adrian.

Xpress editors are determined to moderate comments to ensure a constructive interchange is maintained. All comments judged not to be in keeping with the spirit of civil discourse will be removed and repeat violators will be banned. See here for our terms of service.
