Sam once belonged to FUPA's inner circle, but the infamous "Waxed-Up Wednesdays" disaster turned the former beautician bitter and vengeful. Armed with Nair and clippers, Sam intends to leave the queen of fluff hairless and humiliated. Sam recently crashed a mixed tag match between FUPA and Nick the Rat and Luscious Locks and Rabid Rabbit Raw. FUPA escaped the clippers, then vowed to take the fight directly to Sam. Sam answers with a challenge: a one-on-one "Loser Gets Shaved" match. THE MAP TO THE WIENERCOIN MYSTERY --------------------------------- In the Hey Barn boardroom, Hank "The Babe" Williams studies the map recovered during the investigation into U.S. Type and the missing WienerCoins. A curious X may mark the company's secret dealings, Bungston Big Bucks' stash, or something more sinister. Fuzzy Lumpkins offers his magical Boodle Nugget Empowerment to decode the map. Elsewhere, Santa Clawz continues hunting Nick the Rat, while Luscious Locks promises that neither Sam nor anyone else will touch her curls. Hank vows to follow the X to its destination. Upcoming events include the Loser Gets Shaved match and a major revelation from the Commish about the WienerCoin investigation.
