TONIGHT! ON MTV! WSX MARATHON!

TONIGHT!

YOU ALWAYS WANTED MORE THAN 30 MINUTES OF WRESTLING SOCIETY X!

WELL, NOW YOU'VE GOT IT!!! YOUR WSX WISH HAS COME TRUE!

Tonight! Tuesday! March 13, 2007; MTV will unleash 2 1/2 hours of ALL NEW, NEVER BEFORE SEEN WSX action!

That's right - 5 ALL NEW EPISODES of Wrestling Society X - back-to-back starting at 11 PM EST/PST! A marathon of fresh episodes of WSX on MTV!

Don't miss any of the action as things kick off with one of the most spectacular high-flying matches of the season as The Filth and The Fury, Teddy Hart and Matt Cross, taking on Team Dragon Gate and end 2 1/2 hours later with one of the most talked about matches of the season as Jack Evans and the Human Tornado battle it out one-on-one! Plus, in the middle, you¹ll see the most intense battle in WSX history as Vampiro and Ricky Banderas battle it out for the WSX Championship and the debuts of many new WSX stars! How much high flying rapid-fire action, insane outstanding acrobatics, and explosive innovative wrestling can we give you in two and a half hours? Will your body be able to handle the WSXperience?

Episode 5 - 11:00 pm EST /PST

The putrid smell of Vampiro's burnt dreadlock still lingers in the WSX Bunker, as last time on Wrestling Society X… Matt Sydal and his leading lady Lizzy Valentine took the award for "best performance in a wrestling contest" against Award Winning Scorpio Sky! Keepin' It Gangsta ("King Of Bling" Babi Slymm & "The Regulator Of The Ring" Ruckus) called out any team, and brought their over $2,000,000 BLING'D OUT LADDER to Knock The F'OUT of Joey "Magnum" Ryan and sent the 70's team back to the Robs Place (Check it out, a "What's happening?" reference in 2007)! The degenerate 6-Pac jumped Human Torando before his match against Next Generation star El Hombre Blanco Enmascarado and called out WSX Champion Vampiro! Vampiro came to the ring, but ended up being viciously attacked by a mysterious, rather large and scared man. This beast of a man proceeded to throw a fireball severely burning the dark soul of Vampiro…

INTERNATIONAL TAG TEAM AFFAIR - The Filth & The Fury (Teddy Hart & Matt "M-Dogg 20" Cross) vs. Team Dragon Gate (Masato Yoshino & Genki Horiguchi)
Three weeks ago, The Filth & The Fury made their shocking (pun intended) debut as third generation superstar Teddy Hart not only electrocuted Spyder Nate Webb of the Trailer Park Boyz (taking WSX.MTV.COM temporarily offline), but proceeded to hit his open heart surgery off of one of the seedier sides of the WSX Bunker. Matt "M-Dogg 20" Cross landed his M-Dogg Fury (shooting star legdrop) for a huge win for this thrilling new generation Can-Am Connection. However, they step back into the ring this week on Wrestling Society X, facing international ambassadors of the WSX United Nations in Yoshino & Horiguchi of Team Dragon Gate. The pride and joy of the land of the rising sun will be looking to regroup after the disco demolition against that 70's team two weeks ago and last weeks loss on WSXtra to emotional, yet unstable, duo of D.I.F.H. They have lost face, but will they regain "honor" tonight? Get ready and strap yourself in as this match will featuring rapid-fire action, outstanding acrobatics, innovative wrestling, and four of the best in WSX!

TORANDO WARNING: SEVERE ANGER! Will 6-Pac answer the Human Tornado's challenge?
As the beautiful Lacey was getting ready to host WSXtra last week, the Human Tornado regained consciousness and challenged the man who attacked him from behind with a num-chuck last week, the one and only 6-Pac! Tornado and his balls of steels asked if 6-Pac had a set after facing Vampiro's exploding coffin. The leader of the tornaHOs challenged the former WWE, WCW, TNA, XPW Champion to settle their differences this week, not in the posh yet foul smelling dressing rooms of the WSX Bunker, but in the ring! Will 6-Pac accept the challenge of this rising Next Generation star? When finally reached for comment, 6-Pac said he had two small words for WSX.MTV.COM that we can't print here!

TWO DEBUTS, ONE MATCH - "The Anarchist" Arik Cannon vs. Delikado
We were introduced last week to "The Anarchist" Arik Cannon, who showed us his strong style by destroying a friend of his with harsh shots and elbow smashes in anticipation of his in-ring debut. This week, he's in the Bunker and ready to face the masked assassin known as Delikado. Like the man who attacked Vampiro last week, not much is known about Delikado but word is he fits the cliché "silent but deadly" to a "T." Will Anarchy reign supreme in the WSX Bunker or will Delikado lead to his defeat?

NEWS FLASH! This just in! WSX.MTV.COM has gotten a message from someone calling themselves "The Dark Prophet." This person has asked for some time this week on Wrestling Society X to give his "justification for my fiery actions of last week." The address he gave our camera crew? A cold concrete crypt at a rundown cemetery. Now, for the first time ever, this mystery man who attacked Vampiro last week will speak on his heinous actions! Who is this "Dark Prophet?" Why did he come to Wrestling Society X? What's with his burnt face and what does Vampiro have to do with it? Turn in…if you dare!

Plus a performance from Jibbs!

WSXTra, one-half of the tag team champions known as the full Wrestling Society X experience, is back again this week with a brand new edition! Hosted by Lacey (mmmmmmm Lacey) and the worlds greatest hypeman (sorry Flavor Flav) Fabien Kalen. On this episode, two huge tag team contests with some of the finest tag teams in the entire wrestling world! We saw last time on WSXtra an incident between the brash Luke Hawx, along his tag team partner Alkatrazz, and the blinged out bad boys of Keepin It Gangsta. Cameras caught their brawl backstage. This week, the brawl continues - in the ring! Will Ruckus bring the bling'd out ladder worth over a million dollars? Will the "southern stomper" lay waste to "sweet" Babi Slymm? Will Alkatrazz violate his parole? Will Ruckus, bring the um, ruckus? Plus, two more of the many great teams who call the WSX Bunker home rumble, as Los Pochos Guapos (Joey "Kaos" Munoz & Aaron "Jesus" Aguilera) will be in action. Can these handsome Latino heartthrobs keep focused this week or will they fall victim to the Trailer Park Boyz of Josh "Jug" Raymond & "Spyder" Nate Webb? Uncle White Trash Johnny Webb has promised his team a post-match victory feast for the ages at Applebee's if the White Trash Boys can reign supreme! Will Los Ponchos Guapos derail White Trash Boys' high life and apple cobbler dreams? Check it out online!

Episode 6 - 11:30 pm EST /PST

WILL SCORPIO SKY BE AWARDED "VICTORY" - Jack Evans vs. Scorpio Sky
Scorpio Sky, a man recognized by his peers at Montclair High as "Best Athlete" and "Most Likely To Succeed" is back to the bunker this week on Wrestling Society X. After his tough loss to the cocky coverboy Matt Sydal, he decided to beat Sydal at his own game. No, not the men's catalog fashion game or "Hungry Hungry Hippos", but inside the squared circle. The egomaniacal Sky challenged the undefeated Prince Of Parkland Jack Evans (who holds a victory over Sydal) to a match this week on WSX! The ariel emperor was quick to accept Sky's challenge telling WSX.MTV.COM "Man, I don't know what this Scorpio Sky is thinking? His moves are tight, but next to Jack Evans, son I'm gold medal and you're just honorable mention! Check your watch Sky, its almost time for the 630 senton express! And you know this……man! " As we've seen over the last few weeks, these two New Generation stars are two of the most thrilling athletes to watch. This should be an exhilarating action packed contest of wrestling society Xcellence!

MORE THEN MUSIC - A BATTLE FOR THE AGES - That '70s Team vs. D.I.F.H.
It's the age old battle: Bee Gee's vs. Jawbreaker! Frampton vs. Dashboard! Loggins & Messina vs. Lifetime & My Chemical Romance! What happens when the jive talkin'-feeling groovy-mustache riding vibes of That '70s Team (Joey "Magnum" Ryan & Disco Machine), face passionate Tyler and delicate Jimmy of D.I.F.H. These two teams are no strangers to one another, as they fought two weeks ago on WSXtra. Jimmy took a break from text messaging and waving at the pretty girls to help Tyler hit the emotional explosion for the victory. Jimmy was so overwhelmed afterwards he nearly stage dove into some lovely ladies at the WSX Bunker. Tonight, the rematch has been set! Will we see a disco demolition or the emotional explosion? Can Jimmy focus on the match inside the ring? Will Disco's balls get smashed?

All this plus more coming off of the shocking events of last week's episode!

Make sure you don't forget to turn in or log on to WSXTra, the additional scoop on the weekly WSX sundee! Hosted by Lacey and the main man on the mic Fabien Kalen! Speaking of the Cocky Coverboy Matt Sydal, he has flown back from Milan, Italy hanging out with Milano and all the other Italian fashion models, designers and beautiful people in order to compete this week on WSXtra. Him and main squeeze Lizzy Valentine caused a paparazzi panic in Italy, but back in the WSX Bunker can they forget about the runway, lights and the catwalk. Matt better be ready as this week, he's facing the returning El Hombre Blanco Enmascarado! The man from just north of the border has been winless but impressive in Wrestling Society X. Can he possibly cover the international cover boy for the 1-2-3, or will El Hombre's victory hat dance be delayed once again? Plus, the deadly duo of Alkatrazz & Luke Hawx are back, but instead of Gangstas they will be facing the All-American dream team of Josh "Jug" Raymond & "Spyder" Nate Webb along with Uncle White Trash Johnny Webb and you know them as the Trailer Park Boyz!

Episode 7 - 12:00 am EST /PST

FILTH & FURY'S UNDEFEATED STREAK IS ON THE LINE! - Los Pochos Guapos vs. The Filth & The Fury
In which should be an explosive contest (no pun intended, seriously. . .), the undefeated Filth & Fury (Teddy Hart & Matt Cross) will do battle with Los Pochos Guapos (Joey "Kaos" Munoz & Aaron "Jesus" Aguilera). Los Pochos are still at odds when it comes to team unity. Aguilera is too focused on the mamacitas, carvezas, and disco's balls(?) which is driving Kaos insane. Keep in mind, when they are on the same page, Los Poncho's are a fantastic team in the vein of other classic Latino tag teams in wrestling history such as Pedro Morales y Carlos Colon, Los Fabulosos (Silver King y El Dandy) and The Conquistadors (Uno y Dos). Kaos wants to work together with Aguilera, as the next generation of American Latino superstar athletes, can these two work together towards a common goal and stop the Filth & Fury's high flying adrenaline rush?

COCKY COVERBOY, MEET TORNADO - Human Tornado vs. Matt Sydal (with Lizzy Valentine)
Coming off a few weeks of distraction with 6-Pac, the P-I-M-P of WSX is back in the WSX Bunker again to entertain his legions of fans, the TornaHOs, on Wrestling Society X! The man with all the moves and more game then Sega will be looking to return to his winning ways. However, he's not going to the ring against a chump or a chimp, he's going to the ring against the cocky coverboy Matt Sydal. Sydal, along with his beautiful girlfriend Lizzy Valentine has been on a tear lately and tonight he wants to show everyone that he's just not another ridiculously sinfully handsome pretty face. "Calvin, Donatella, Stella be dammed, I'm taking a hiatus from the catwalk until I am on top of my game in WSX!" Matt said while looking in his hand mirror. "And when I come back, male modeling world be ready, because I'm getting better looking every day!" Matt's main squeeze Lizzy laughed in approval as she quickly folded up a yellow note addressed to "Peaches"

WHO OR WHAT IS CANNON'S BACKUP?
Plus, Arik Cannon is back in action, but this time, he's got backup! (We don't want to give too much away before you watch this little marathon now do we. . .?)

Plus a performance from Musical Guest Quietdrive

Also check out WSXTra this week featuring Keepin' It Gangsta ("King Of Bling" Babi Slymm & "The Regulator Of The Ring" Ruckus)vs. Alkatrazz & Luke and Award Winning Scorpio Sky faces the Youth Suicide in Suicides' second professional match!

Episode 8 - 12:30 am EST /PST

FINALLY, THE MATCH! - WSX Championship: Vampiro vs. Ricky Banderas
The wait is over. And now, for the first time in WSX history, Vampiro puts his WSX Championship on the line. However, the steaks have never been higher, the action never so hard hitting and oh so personal, as tonight Vampiro will be facing the man whose face is forever altered due to his own hands, Ricky Banderas. Tonight on Wrestling Society X, these two gladiators enter the ring, with the richest prize in WSX on the line. We've seen Banderas reign of terror inside the WSX bunker (watch the friggin' marathon – you'll see what we mean. Man, was he an a****** in episode 6!). We've learned the two men's sorted history in Puerto Rico some time ago (Trust us, watch and you will understand. We strive for logic!). Nevertheless, this week, there MUST BE A WINNER. Vampiro nearly had to kill himself in order to be reborn anew and win the title from 6-Pac, what price will Vampiro be willing to pay to hold on to the title? What will "The Dark Prophet", the monster, do to Vampiro once he gets his hands on him in the ring? More significantly, how far will these men go in order to become champion? Two men, one title, a history of flame! Tonight on WSX! We present the World Title grudge match of the year.

Plus a performance from Musical Guest Pitbull and more hot off the heels of last week's vicious gang attack on WSXtra!

WSXTra will feature the return of Team Dragon Gate (Masato Yoshino & Genki Horiguchi) vs. D.I.F.H. (Tyler Black & Jimmy Jacobs) and Trailer Park Boyz (Josh "Jug" Raymond & "Spyder" Nate Webb) vs. The Masked Dream Team of El Hombre Blanco Enmascarado & Matt Classic vs. That 70s Team (Joey "Magnum" Ryan & Disco Machine) and THE DANCE OFF between Jack Evans & Human Tornado!

Episode 9 - 1:00 am EST /PST

TRASH TALK BRAWL MATCH! - Alkatrazz & Luke vs. "The Anarchist" Arik Cannon & His Mystery Partner
It doesn't really give too much away to tell you that Luke, once again said the wrong thing to the wrong person at the wrong time. Harsh words were spoken, violent tempers raged, flying fists flew, and chaos ensued. Just a normal day in the WSX Bunker. However, Cannon challenged the out of control duo to a match this week on WSX. Will Cannon shut Luke's mouth for good with fists and elbows, or will Cannon and company spend some time in solitary confinement?

AWARD WINNER + DEGENERATE = CHAOS - 6-Pac vs. Scorpio Sky
He may have won Most Likely to Succeed at Montclair High, but Award Winning Scorpio Sky has not racked up the victories like he racked up trophies and digits back in the day. But still, his enormous ego is as inflated as a hot air balloon. Pac, on the other hand, is still on a rampage since not winning the WSX title! The degenerate who lives the surreal life is looking to remain undefeated since his loss to Vampiro and plans to smoke Sky!

EPIC NEXT GENERATION DREAM DESTINY MATCH - "The Prince of Parkland" Jack Evans vs. Human Tornado
Two of the brightest next generation stars in Wrestling Society X finally will do battle this week! The undefeated Ariel Emperor, The Price Of Parkland, and man of 1000 nicknames Jack Evans will be facing Human Tornado in which should be a classic match. Concurrently both men are extremely popular and have all the moves in the ring, as illustrated in their WSXtra publicized Dance Off (WSXtra Episode 8) all the moves on the dance floor. The men may have fought to a draw under the ol' School dance off rules but this week, they'll be doing more then just dancing. They'll be facing each other in the ring. This is the most important match of these young stars career. For Jack Evans, he's been tearing thru the next generation of competition in WSX, and the Tornado is one of the few men he has not defeated. For Human Tornado wants to show he's the top Next Generation star in WSX and put an end to Jack's streak. His record is almost spotless, and he's coming in bringing his a-game. This isn't about hate, this isn't about dancing, this isn't about ToranHo's or Evans-Maniacs, this is about two men just getting in the ring and proving who is the best! Prepare to witness the evolution of the Next Generation, in the ring!

Plus a performance from Musical Guest Styles P

WSXTra will feature the two heated tag team rivalry between the Trailer Park Boyz (Josh "Jug" Raymond & "Spyder" Nate Webb) vs. Keep It Gangsta, D.I.F.H. (Tyler Black & Jimmy Jacobs) vs. That 70s Team (Joey "Magnum" Ryan & Disco Machine)

It¹s TONIGHT at 11 PM EST/PST, only on MTV and only airing ONCE! Be sure to catch it before it¹s too late!!! Support the next generation of pro wrestling! And stay tuned for information on the EXPLOSIVE (ok, NOW the pun is intended) season finale of WRESTLING SOCIETY X!

In which should be an explosive contest (no pun intended, seriously. . .), the undefeated Filth & Fury (Teddy Hart & Matt Cross) will do battle with Los Pochos Guapos (Joey "Kaos" Munoz & Aaron "Jesus" Aguilera). Los Pochos are still at odds when it comes to team unity. Aguilera is too focused on the mamacitas, carvezas, and disco's balls(?) which is driving Kaos insane. Keep in mind, when they are on the same page, Los Poncho's are a fantastic team in the vein of other classic Latino tag teams in wrestling history such as Pedro Morales y Carlos Colon, Los Fabulosos (Silver King y El Dandy) and The Conquistadors (Uno y Dos).

The man with all the moves and more game then Sega will be looking to return to his winning ways. However, he's not going to the ring against a chump or a chimp, he's going to the ring against the cocky coverboy Matt Sydal. Sydal, along with his beautiful girlfriend Lizzy Valentine has been on a tear lately and tonight he wants to show everyone that he's just not another ridiculously sinfully handsome pretty face. "Calvin, Donatella, Stella be dammed, I'm taking a hiatus from the catwalk until I am on top of my game in WSX!" Matt said while looking in his hand mirror. "And when I come back, male modeling world be ready, because I'm getting better looking every day!"

FINALLY, THE MATCH! - WSX Championship: Vampiro vs. Ricky Banderas
The wait is over. And now, for the first time in WSX history, Vampiro puts his WSX Championship on the line. However, the steaks have never been higher, the action never so hard hitting and oh so personal, as tonight Vampiro will be facing the man whose face is forever altered due to his own hands, Ricky Banderas. Tonight on Wrestling Society X, these two gladiators enter the ring, with the richest prize in WSX on the line. We've seen Banderas reign of terror inside the WSX bunker (watch the friggin' marathon – you'll see what we mean. Man, was he an a****** in episode 6!). We've learned the two men's sorted history in Puerto Rico some time ago (Trust us, watch and you will understand. We strive for logic!). Nevertheless, this week, there MUST BE A WINNER. Vampiro nearly had to kill himself in order to be reborn anew and win the title from 6-Pac, what price will Vampiro be willing to pay to hold on to the title?

Two men, one title, a history of flame! Tonight on WSX! We present the World Title grudge match of the year.

Plus a performance from Musical Guest Pitbull and more hot off the heels of last week's vicious gang attack on WSXtra!

WSXTra will feature the return of Team Dragon Gate (Masato Yoshino & Genki Horiguchi) vs. D.I.F.H. (Tyler Black & Jimmy Jacobs) and Trailer Park Boyz (Josh "Jug" Raymond & "Spyder" Nate Webb) vs. The Masked Dream Team of El Hombre Blanco Enmascarado & Matt Classic vs. That 70s Team (Joey "Magnum" Ryan & Disco Machine) and THE DANCE OFF between Jack Evans & Human Tornado!

Episode 9 - 1:00 am EST/PST

TRASH TALK BRAWL MATCH! - Alkatrazz & Luke vs. "The Anarchist" Arik Cannon & His Mystery Partner
It doesn't really give too much away to tell you that Luke, once again said the wrong thing to the wrong person at the wrong time. Harsh words were spoken, violent tempers raged, flying fists flew, and chaos ensued. Just a normal day in the WSX Bunker. However, Cannon challenged the out of control duo to a match this week on WSX. Will Cannon shut Luke's mouth for good with fists and elbows, or will Cannon and company spend some time in solitary confinement?

AWARD WINNER + DEGENERATE = CHAOS - 6-Pac vs. Scorpio Sky
He may have won Most Likely to Succeed at Montclair High, but Award Winning Scorpio Sky has not racked up the victories like he racked up trophies and digits back in the day. But still, his enormous ego is as inflated as a hot air balloon. Pac, on the other hand, is still on a rampage since not winning the WSX title! The degenerate who lives the surreal life is looking to remain undefeated since his loss to Vampiro and plans to smoke Sky!

EPIC NEXT GENERATION DREAM DESTINY MATCH - "The Prince of Parkland" Jack Evans vs. Human Tornado
Two of the brightest next generation stars in Wrestling Society X finally will do battle this week! The undefeated Ariel Emperor, The Price Of Parkland, and man of 1000 nicknames Jack Evans will be facing Human Tornado in which should be a classic match. Concurrently both men are extremely popular and have all the moves in the ring, as illustrated in their WSXtra publicized Dance Off (WSXtra Episode 8) all the moves on the dance floor. The men may have fought to a draw under the ol' School dance off rules but this week, they'll be doing more then just dancing. They'll be facing each other in the ring. This is the most important match of these young stars career. For Jack Evans, he's been tearing thru the next generation of competition in WSX, and the Tornado is one of the few men he has not defeated. For Human Tornado wants to show he's the top Next Generation star in WSX and put an end to Jack's streak. His record is almost spotless, and he's coming in bringing his a-game. This isn't about hate, this isn't about dancing, this isn't about ToranHo's or Evans-Maniacs, this is about two men just getting in the ring and proving who is the best! Prepare to witness the evolution of the Next Generation, in the ring!

Plus a performance from Musical Guest Styles P

WSXTra will feature the two heated tag team rivalry between the Trailer Park Boyz (Josh "Jug" Raymond & "Spyder" Nate Webb) vs. Keep It Gangsta, D.I.F.H. (Tyler Black & Jimmy Jacobs) vs. That 70s Team (Joey "Magnum" Ryan & Disco Machine)

WSX Episode III Preview

By Keith Lipinski

Last week:

Vamprio survived his war with 6-Pac, who was blown to hell in Vampiro's casket as Vampiro became the first ever Wrestling Society X Champion!

Team Dragon Gate, all the way from the land of the rising sun, debuted, but were defeated by That 70s Team despite Joey Ryan's asthma handicap.

And, Human Tornado scored a pinfall victory over Luke, but that wouldn't be the end of Luke's action as Aaron "Jesus" Aguilera jumped him after the match in an attempt to make it up to his tag team partner Kaos for not being there for him in the WSX Rumble and allowing Luke and Alkatrazz to eliminate him into a box of live electric wires. Unfortunately, for Kaos, in the end he fell victim to the prison bound duo and ended up getting kicked off of the top rope and through a table as Aguilera flirted with the "mamacitas" at ringside. To say that Kaos was upset would be an understatement!

World championship matches, exploding coffins, lightening quick Japanese wrestlers, and the mamacitas, how can Wrestling Society X possibly top last week's episode?

Simple, by bringing in the tables, ladders, cerveza, a trailer, a prince, a masked man, "White Trash" Johnny Webb, and the Filth and Fury! Wow. There ain't no party like a WSX party, and this week, that WSX party don't stop!

Tag Team Action: The Trailer Park Boyz vs. The Filth & The Fury
Witness the television debut of two more of WSX's deep lineup of fine tag teams. First off, from Trailer Park City, USA (better known as "any damn trailer they please") comes "Spyder" Nate Webb and Josh "Jug" Raymond, the Trailer Park Boyz. They came up to live in their Uncle "White Trash" Johnny Webb's trailer in order to escape their surroundings and are now in WSX working for the American dream: a sweet double wide! After meeting up with Three-6 Mafia on WSXtra last week, we saw Spyder & Jug aren't just here for a ho-down, they're here to kick ass, take names, and eat something other then Grandma Raymond's "critters." Yes, they want to live the high life, but standing in their way is the debut of the much anticipated tag-team of the Filth & the Fury. The Filth: Cleveland Ohio's favorite son Matt "M-Dogg 20" Cross, byw legend, and amazing high flyer. The Fury: From Calgary, Alberta, Canada, the third generation of the legendary Hart wrestling family, the one and only Teddy Hart. Known for his brashness and fury in and out of the ring, Teddy is an amazingly talented athlete. He's also confident they are the BEST TAG TEAM IN THE WORLD! This week, they get a chance to prove it. It's more than a culture clash; it's a battle for the next generation of tag team wrestling!

High Flying Dogfight: "The Prince Of Parkland" Jack Evans vs. El Hombre Blanco Enmascarado
By popular demand, Jack is back! Yes, Jack Evans (from the heavens) steps back inside the WSX Bunker for another wrestling highlight film. This week, he's facing a man from just a little north of the border, the mysterious El Hombre Blanco Enmascarado. El Hombre is a seasoned veteran of Lucha Libre, the Mexican art of professional wrestling as he's watched El Santo vs. the Vampire Women at least 100 times! However, he'll need more then the savage Vampire Women to defeat the aerial emperor, the admiral of aviation, and the man who put P-Town Washington on the map, Jack Evans. Witness the quickness, as these two men battle on the mat, in the air, and all over the WSX bunker!

Tables Ladders & Cerveza: Los Pochos Guapos (Joey "Kaos" Muñoz & Aaron "Jesus" Aguilera) vs. Luke Hawx & Alkatrazz
As seen on WSXtra last week, Kaos still suffering from the effects of being put thru a table was upset at his partner Aguilera for not being focused and thinking about the mamacitas as opposed what was going on inside the ring. Kaos was so irate he threw his partners own delicious cerveza down. That's ice cold! Aguilera, feeling he NOW had the way to make it up to Kaos, decided that they should challenge the out of control and out of bail duo of Luke Hawx & the monster Alkatrazz to pro wrestling's first ever Tables Ladders & Cerveza match. The tables are legal. The ladders are legal! And the Cerveza (since both teams are above the legal drinking age in the state of California) are legal! Can Los Ponchos Guapos find their focus? Or will Luke & Alkatrazz send them back to penitentiary?

Plus special musical guests Sparta perform!

Don't forget about the second half of the WSX Experience - WSXtra hosted by the lovely Lacey and Fabian Kaelin. This week! The Award Winning Scorpio Sky debuts, America's favorite masked man - Matt Classic returns for a WSX encore, and the loveable emo boys of "Angry" Tyler Black & "Sensitive" Jimmy Jacobs of D.I.F.H. attempt to stop That 70's Team (Joey "Magnum" Ryan & Disco Machine) winning ways. Will that 70's Team have a nice day or will they witness an emotional explosion? Check out what some are calling THE BEST WRESTLING INTERNET SHOW EVER - WSXtra on WSX.MTV.COM

CARE/other vuz-vuz-vuz Jabronis preview: UFC Fight Night Live 8

Fight Night Live

UFC Fight Night Live 8
Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, FL

Casey: I’m glad to see the first UFC event of the year as I am by far and away more interested in UFC than anything being done in professional wrestling. I’d also like to note that the advantage of putting this preview together is that I get to see before most that Euan’s comments for this show are so awesome. One last pressing question I must ask. If Vladimir Kozlov were interviewed at this show, would he say: “I love Ubble-fubble-c”?

Euan: UFC Fight Night is upon us which signals the beginning of a few very busy weeks of MMA and wrestling so let's see what Dana has planned for us. I must thank Casey "the most black brother in the vold" for supplying me with the links to the profiles of each fighter which will influence my predictions and of course the EuTube index will be used for matches where i cannot decide on a winner or if i'm feeling lazy.

Wade: I haven't watched much UFC yet so I will be basing my picks on the fighters win/loss record and/or their strengths.

Scott: I’m making my UFC picks debut for this show. I’m not as educated on who these fighters are as some of my other compatriots, but I make up for it with a willingness to guess and flip coins if need be.

Prediction Tracking:
This is the first UFC event of the year and the first MMA event overall. As a result there is nothing for this specific company in th way of stats yet but we can still look at the overall…

Marcus: 1 event, 6 wins with 2 losses for 75%
Casey: 2 Events, 6 wins with 9 losses for 40%
Ric: 2 events, 6 wins with 9 losses for 40%
Art: 2 Events, 4 wins with 10 losses for 28.5%
Euan: 2 Events, 3 wins with 10 losses for 23.1%
Scott: 1 event, 3 wins with 5 losses for 37.5%
Wade: 1 event, 3 wins with 5 losses for 37.5%

Welterweight Bout: (Dark)
http://www.ufc.com/index.cfm?fa=fighter.detail&pid=454
Ross “The Gladiator” Pointon (5:8, 168.5, 4-8-0)
Vs.
http://www.ufc.com/index.cfm?fa=fighter.detail&pid=288
Rich “No Love” Clementi (5:9, 169.5, 22-6-0)

Last UFC Bout: Rich Clementi lost to Din Thomas via submission at the Ultimate Fighter 4 Finale on 11/11/2006. Ross Pointon lost to Rory Singer on the Ultimate Fighter 3 Finale on 06/24/2006.

Casey: This is a tough fight to call for me. Looking things over, the experience edge lies with Clementi. Looking at the 2 nicknames which I think is always a key to the fight as if your nickname is stupid enough you can get your opponent to start laughing during ring intros and next thing you know he’s tired and falls victim to your offense. I call this the “Ken flo” theory. So in that battle which is close I give the slight edge to “The Gladiator” as while they’re both fine nicknames, Clementi’s suggests childhood horrors more than it does tougher fighter. However, they are both coming off of losses in their last fights. The nickname theory not withstanding, I don’t have as good a reason as Euan does for why I’m going this direction, but…
Winner: Ross Pointon

Art: Clementi via TKO R1
Winner: Rich Clementi

Ric: After losing this one, will Pointon drop to lightweight?
Winner: Rich Clementi

Euan: I am going to pick Ross Pointon to win this fight for two reasons: he is British and i have to support my own country and when asked if he had any heroes he answered "Myself". A great man.
Winner: Ross Pointon

Scott: I’m going to give this to Clementi based on experience.
Winner: Rich Clementi

Wade: Both men have lost their recent fights so I'm sure both are wanting a win. I think Rich will come out on top.
Winner: Rich Clementi

Marcus: Rich Clementi to win.
Winner: Rich Clementi

Lightweight Bout: (Dark)
http://www.ufc.com/index.cfm?fa=fighter.detail&pid=494
Clay “The Carpenter” Guida (5:7, 154, 21-3-0)
Vs.
http://www.ufc.com/index.cfm?fa=fighter.detail&pid=20
Din “DinYero” Thomas (5:9, 154.5, 21-7-0)

Last UFC Bout: Din Thomas defeated Rich Clementi via submission on the Ultimate Fighter 4 Finale on 11/11/2006. Clay Guida defeated Justin James via submission at UFC 64 on 10/14/2006.

Casey: In this lightweight bout you have 2 fighters coming off of victories in their last fight. You also have “The Carpenter” Vs. “DinYero” which even though I don’t really know what a “DinYero” is supposed to be, the “Carpenter” suggests he has another career in mind should fighting not work out. I took the youth in the last fight so by my horrible logic its time to go with a man who has more UFC experience in this one.
Winner: Din Thomas

Art: Guida via submission R2
Winner: Clay Guida

Ric: I see this going a lot like Thomas' recent fight against Rich Clementi, with the same result of a win for Thomas.
Winner: Din Thomas

Euan: If you do anything today, you have to go and look at Guida's UFC profile and check out the first picture in his photo gallery. He looks like he just shit himself live on PPV and i laughed heartily. So for providing laughs, i will predict Guida to defeat Thomas.
Winner: Clay Guida

Scott: During this fight I am going to employ my brilliant strategy and predict the winner by guessing.
Winner: Clay Guida

Wade: I'm going with Clay here based on his strengths.
Winner: Clay Guida

Marcus: Clay Guida to win.
Winner: Clay Guida

Middleweight Bout: (Dark)
http://www.ufc.com/index.cfm?fa=fighter.detail&pid=447
Ed “Short Fuse” Herman (6:2, 186, 13-4-0)
Vs.
http://www.ufc.com/index.cfm?fa=fighter.detail&pid=487
Chris “The Exorcist” Price (6:3, 192, 8-1-0)

Last UFC Bout: Ed Herman lost via submission to Jason MacDonald at “Ortiz Vs. Shamrock III the Final Chapter”, on 10/10/2006. Chris Price lost to Kendal Grove at “Ortiz Vs. Shamrock III the Final Chapter” on 10/10/2006 via submission.

Casey: Ed Herman is on a 2-fight losing streak inside the Octagon. Both of these men lost their last fight, I saw both of those fights and neither of them looked more impressive in defeat than did the other. I think that Herman really needs to win this fight in order to be something as if he loses a third fight in a row he’d just be better off changing his name to Herman Munster. In the vaunted nickname battle “The Exorcist” Vs. “Short Fuse”, you do have to give that to Chris Price. Yeah, it also suggests that he like Clay Guida before him has another career in mind but I think it takes 1 tough man to perform exorcisms. Although, if you had “Short fuse” doing that job then he could just get pissed at the demon possessed man and knock him out.
If that is not enough to convince you that Chris Price is in for a humbling, perhaps this note found at the bottom of the UFC.com weigh-in story will do the trick?
* Herman agreed to face Price despite the Indiana fighter being seven pounds over the middleweight limit of 185 pounds. When Price thanked Herman for still
agreeing to fight, “Short Fuse” responded, “You weren’t getting off that easy.” I give this quote about a hundred thumbs up.
Winner: Ed Herman

Art: Herman via TKO R2
Winner: Ed Herman

Ric: I don't think Herman should have much trouble winning this one, which (stylistically) will probably look almost exactly like
Kendall Grove's recent victory over Price.
Winner: Ed Herman

Euan: Herman is attempting to recover from the humbling he suffered at the hands of at the time newcomer Jason MacDonald and in my opinion if he wants to find himself fighting on the PPV again, he must defeat "The Exorcist" Chris Price. I decided to check and see if Mr. Price was indeed a practicing priest and in doing so determine if he is worthy of the nickname "The Exorcist"...well i found Chris Price and well he isn't a priest or American for that fact. He is actually from Wales, don't believe me well here is a link to prove so
http://users.aber.ac.uk/cjp/.
So for being a liar and Welsh, Ed Herman is my choice.
Winner: Ed Herman

Scott: Ed Herman will win, because he is a red head and you don’t piss off red heads.
Winner: Ed Herman

Wade: This fight is elementary given what Herman said at the weigh in. He's very confident and that's always a good thing.
Winner: Ed Herman

Marcus: Ed Herman to win.
Winner: Ed Herman

Welterweight Bout: (Dark)
http://www.ufc.com/index.cfm?fa=fighter.detail&pid=518
Chad “The Grinder” Reiner (5:11, 171, 13-1-0)
Vs.
http://www.ufc.com/index.cfm?fa=fighter.detail&pid=400
“The People’s Warrior” Josh Burkman (5:10, 171, 18-3-0)

Last UFC Bout: This is Chad Reiner’s UFC Debut. Josh Burkman was victorious at UFC 61 on 07/08/2006 by a Unanimous decision over Josh Neer.

Casey: As this is Reiner’s debut I really don’t know all that much about him or his style, only what I was able to glean from his UFC profile. His nickname makes me think porn star more than fighter though. On the otherhand, Josh Burkman’s last fight was the best on a truly horrific show which isn’t saying much. As for his nickname, “The People’s Warrior” makes me wonder when we hold elections for offices like this and how a campaign for this would work. I invision an election for the position of “People’s Warrior” to contain phrases like “If Elected, I pledge that Pilliging will rise 200% over the last fiscal year while raping will increase by a staggering 500% over that same approximate time”. However, we must not forget that as he is a Warrior, Burkman must also be a believer in distrusity and we all know that distrusity has the power to get you WWE Championship reigns you don’t deserve and wrestling contracts even after you fuck up repeatedly. If distrusity can do that for a man The Grinder doesn’t have a chance.
Winner: Josh Burkman

Art: Reiner via submission R3
Winner: Chad Reiner

Ric: Reiner favors a submission-based style, which is something of a weakness of Burkman's. Still, Burkman's edge in wrestling
and overall experience, should be his ticket to a win.
Winner: Josh Burkman

Euan: This is Reiner's UFC debut and i'm afraid to say it's going to be a long night going in against "The People's Champio...Warrior" Josh Burkman. From his interview with UFC.com it is clear that Burkman is a simple man as when asked what his favorite technique was he answered "punching people in the face". Providing he actually punches his opponent and not merely brush against him like Nick fucking Diaz who somehow got himself booked on the upcoming PRIDE show in February, he will win this fight. I can only pray that Diaz is put against Takanori Gomi so i can watch Diaz get the fuck knocked out of him.
Winner: Josh Burkman

Scott: Once again, back to the strategy of taking a guess.
Winner: Josh Burkman

Wade: Burkman has actually had some matches in UFC already so he knows his way around the octagon.
Winner: Josh Burkman

Marcus: Chad “The Grinder” Reiner, yeah I’m the only one so far.
Winner: Chad Reiner

Middleweight Bout: (Dark)
http://www.ufc.com/index.cfm?fa=fighter.detail&pid=437
Dean “The Boogeyman” Lister (6:1, 185, 9-4-0)
Vs.
http://www.ufc.com/index.cfm?fa=fighter.detail&pid=370
Nate “The Great” Marquardt (6:0, 185.5, 27-6-1)

Last UFC Bout: On 08/17/2006 Dean Lister defeated Yuki Sasaki by Unanimous decision at Fight Night 6. Nate Marquardt was victorious over Crafton Wallace on 10/10/2006 at “Ortiz Vs. Shamrock III” by submission.

Casey: Euan stole all of the Boogeyman jokes that I was going to make in the nickname contest. I’m not sure if Nate Marquardt can live up to his nickname of being great. I remember being really impressed with Lister when I saw him at UFC 60 and if I remember that much than it must mean something.
Winner: Dean Lister

Art: Marquardt via submission R3
Winner: Nate Marquardt

Ric: This one, like the first bout, is in danger of becoming a boring stalemate, but that aside, I'm going with Marquardt.
Winner: Nate Marquardt

Euan: Oh, when did "The Boogeyman" go to UFC? I wonder if worms are allowed in the Octagon? Anyway, both men are coming off victories in their last fights so
a good show here could earn them a place on a PPV in the near future. Marquart has the obvious experience advantage over Lister but come on, anyone who
can make red smoke come out of a stick deserves respect right? No. Marquardt to win.
Winner: Nate Marquardt

Scott: Marquardt seems to have more experience but that doesn’t necessarily mean anything. I’m going to pick him anyway because really, why not?
Winner: Nate Marquardt

Wade: Nate has a great win/loss record and is a well rounded wrestler so he should be a shoe in to win.
Winner: Nate Marquardt

Marcus: Dean “The Boogeyman” Lister
Winner: Dean Lister

Lightweight Bout:
http://www.ufc.com/index.cfm?fa=fighter.detail&pid=290
Hermes Franca (5:6, 155, 17-5-0)
Vs.
http://www.ufc.com/index.cfm?fa=fighter.detail&pid=389
Spencer “The King” Fisher (5:7, 154.5, 20-2-0)

Last UFC Bout: Hermes Franca defeated Jamie Varner via submission on 08/26/2006 at UFC 62. Spencer Fisher defeated Dan Lauzon at UFC 64 on 10/14/2006 by a first round TKO.

Casey: Now we’re talking. I love Spencer Fisher for being an honest man and saying that his wrestling sucked after his most recent victory. That means Sean Sherk would probably kill him but Hermes Franca isn’t Sean Sherk. I’m real excited to see this bout. Franca has no nickname but his first name is Hermes which does have to count for something. I’m surprised Euan didn’t make any Jerry Lawler jokes as they were right there, but don’t worry Fisher will fight again. This should be a fun fight and I have a feeling that the King will reign supreme. As an aside, we have the Boogeyman and the King on the same show are we sure this isn’t Smackdown?
Winner: Spencer Fisher

Art: Fisher via TKO R2
Winner: Spencer Fisher

Ric: Boy, oh, boy, this should be interesting! I keep flip-flopping on this, but think I'm gonna go with Franca.
Winner: Hermes Franca

Euan: I like both fighters in this case and i cannot decide on a winner so i will ask someone who has the insight, intelligence and clarity to help. "DOMMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
HARDU GEI~!!!!!!!!!!!!! OK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Of course, it's Razor Ramon HG! So HG, help me pick a winner.
"Say, say, say King Fisher FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!" Well that's it, Spencer Fisher to win.
Winner - Spencer Fisher

Scott: Spencer Fisher will win because Razor Ramon HG said so.
Winner: Spencer Fisher

Wade: Hermes seems to be the more well rounded fighter so I'm going with him.
Winner: Hermes Franca

Marcus: Spencer “The King” Fisher
Winner: Spencer Fisher

Heavyweight Bout:
http://www.ufc.com/index.cfm?fa=fighter.detail&pid=469
Jake “Irish” O’Brien (6:3, 234.5 9-0-0)
Vs.
http://www.ufc.com/index.cfm?fa=fighter.detail&pid=515
Heath “The Texas Crazy Horse” Herring (6:4, 250, 26-11-1)

Last UFC Bout: On 11/18/2006 at UFC 65, Jake O’Brien defeated Josh Schockman by Unanimous decision. This will be Heath Herring’s UFC debut.

Casey: Heath Herring wins the nickname battle in a walk away and I’m sure I don’t need to explain why. Also, my suggestion for O’Brien is to plant a big kiss on Herring during pre-fight instructions because really I think that’s his best chance of walking away the victor assuming that he’d actually be able to walk. I heard Heath Herring on Between the Ropes and he’s just awesome so how can I not pick him?
Winner: Heath Herring

Art: Herring via TKO R1
Winner: Heath Herring

Ric: Two words - Herring will win, and win big. (Ed. Note: I think that might be more than 2 words)
Winner: Heath Herring

Euan: The UFC debut of "The Texas Crazy Horse", i love Heath Herring. I have seen a lot of his fights from PRIDE FC and he is to be feared both on his feet and on the mat. Jake O'Brien is coming off a win at UFC 65 but this will not be enough to silence Herring.
Winner: Heath Herring

Scott: Heath Herring, did you not see the video? This should be more entertaining than a Tim Sylvia fight.
Winner: Heath Herring

Wade: Based on the clip I saw of Heath blasting the man who kissed him, and the fact that he has such a high win/loss record,
I'm going with him.
Winner: Heath Herring

Marcus: Heath Herring
Winner: Heath Herring

Euan: "And now, from the beautiful Mandalay Events Center in Las Vegas, Nevada. IT'S TIIMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE FOR OUR UFC MAIN EVENT OF THE EVENING!" "PRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRIIIIDDE!"
Well, it appears that UFC and PRIDE are working together these days as now both Bruce Buffer and Crazy American PRIDE lady are announcing MMA shows.

Light Heavyweight Bout:
http://www.ufc.com/index.cfm?fa=fighter.detail&pid=399
Rashad Evans (5:11, 205.5, 14-0-0)
Vs.
http://www.ufc.com/index.cfm?fa=fighter.detail&pid=513
Sean Salmon (5:10, 206 9-1-0)

Last UFC Bout: At UFC 63 on 09/23/2006, Rashad Evans knocked out Jason Lambert. This will be the UFC debut of Sean Salmon.

Casey: It is hard for me to pick a man making his UFC debut especially when he is fighting someone I enjoy watching like Rashad. I realize I get burned on this from time to time, see MacDonald, Jason but I don’t see this as being one of those times. On another note related to this show we have a Salmon a Herring and a Fisher and that has to mean something though I’m not sure what. The only thing missing from the fish theme is “the Muscle Shark”. Also neither man has a nickname which makes it really hard to pick a favorite in that particular battle. I’m going to go with Rashad because Euan’s pick just makes good sense in the physical universe.
Winner: Rashad Evans

Art: Evans via TKO R2
Winner: Rashad Evans

Ric: Good wrestler against good wrestler. It's said that Salmon can also throw hands, which we also know Evans is capable of. Salmon tends to rely more on jiu-jitsu than straight wrestling, but that didn't help Stephan Bonnar's cause when he faced Evans. Evans' combo of size and experience will, in my view, be too much for Salmon to handle.
Winner: Rashad Evans

Euan: This is an easy fight to predict as Rashad Evans is on a 4 match winning streak and Sean Salmon is...well according to his profile 0 years old so he does not exist therefore he has already lost the fight by not appearing.
Winner: Rashad Evans

Scott: As time passes, you will figure out that I tend to pick guys with more experience in the Octagon even if it does come back to bite me in the ass, see MacDonald, Jason at UFC Tito Vs. Ken III.
Winner: Rashad Evans

Wade: From what I've seen, takedowns can be hard to counter. Add in Rashad's takedown defense and I think he's got this one.
Winner: Rashad Evans

Marcus: Rashad Evans
Winner: Rashad Evans

Casey: The OCC will have live round-by-round coverage of this show and I’m looking forward to this more than to any other sports entertainment that may have in the past aired on Thursday, may presently air on Thursday and be preempted or may in the future air on Thursday.

RAW 1/22 preview: "Getting ready to rumble" (WWE.com)

http://www.wwe.com/shows/raw/preview/

Getting ready to rumble
January 22, 2007

With only one stop for the Raw Superstars before the Royal Rumble blasts into San Antonio, Raw will continue to raise the bar in sports-entertainment action this week when the show emanates from the Cajundome in Lafayette, La.

Still standing?
WWE Champion John Cena will defend his title against Umaga in a Last Man Standing Match at the Royal Rumble. The Last Man Standing Match has no rules except to beat your opponent so severely that he is unable to answer to a 10 count. Armando Estrada still claims that Cena’s win over the previously undefeated Umaga at New Year’s Revolution was a fluke, and chose a match that would allow no fluke victories. After the contract was signed cementing the match, Cena laid out both Umaga and Estrada. Will Estrada and Umaga try to get the upper hand on the final Raw leading into the Royal Rumble?

Rumbling towards San Antonio
Three spots still remain in the Royal Rumble Match; will any Raw Superstars join the 27 Superstars already announced?

Find out all this and more on Raw, Monday night at 9/8 CT on USA Network.

NON-TITLE MAIN EVENT MATCH FEATURING A RETURNING BRITISH STAR AND THE MAN THAT GRAVITY FORGOT!

STEVIE LYNN VS. 1PW OPENWEIGHT CHAMPION PAC - One of the best young up and comers in the UK returns to the ring (Stevie Lynn), to take on a fellow up and comer PAC who has been making waves everywhere from 3CW, 1PW and now TNA (Portuguese tour).

PAC is going to be a huge star one day (check out his match with AJ Styles 1PW 1 Year Anniversary for details). Lynn retired on the back of a well received match with Doug Williams in 3CW. This match could be the showstealer of the fight club! Although will PAC be 100% focused on Lynn with his huge match v Kid Kash later that night?

Only one way to find out: Be there live at the Doncaster Dome, this Saturday afternoon 2:30pm!

3CW HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP – DRAGON AISU © VS. 'MR 50 50' DAN EVANS - I'm going to be honest I haven't heard of Dan Evans. That is not to say he isn't a good Wrestler, just I have never seen him Wrestle. So Saturday I will be watching this match very closely. Dragon Aisu has been a 1PW mainstay for much of the time the promotion was open. They have had a heated rivalry in 3CW could this culminate with a NEW 3CW Heavyweight Champion?

Find out this Saturday live from the Doncaster Dome at 2:30pm!

EL LIGERO VS. DARKSIDE - El Ligero, another guy who is heading to the top. Always been thoroughly impressed with him (TBW and 1PW 1YA) spring to mind. Darkside I am less familiar with, he's a good Wrestler. I just haven't seen that much of him, look forward to seeing his performance against El Ligero this Saturday personally, and should be a fast paced match and one for the cruiserweight fans to enjoy!

El Ligero or Darkside to win? Find out this Saturday live from the Doncaster Dome at 2:30pm!

3CW TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP – CHRIS WHITTON & KID RICHIE (TEAM DORMANSTOWN) © VS. THE NEW BEST KEPT SECRETS – LANCE THUNDER & ANTHONY McINTYRE - Can not comment I'm afraid as I have never seen the four guys Wrestle before!

THE SHOW WILL ALSO FEATURE…

DAMNED NATION'S MAJIK (WITH GABRIEL GREY) FACES THE KRAZE'S CAMERON KRAZE - Majik is a man that has impressed me personally on the three occasions that I have seen him Wrestle (as part of Damned Nation v Chris Hamrick, the best match at Fight Club 3! LPW v Keith Myatt and Damned Nation v Team SHAG) has a lot of skills and could be a big star in his own right! NOT seen Cameron Kraze Wrestle before!

PLUS… MARKY B KRAZE VS MARTIN KIRBY - Can't comment as I haven't either guy Wrestle before!

Not my best preview I apologize outright to guys I have not seen Wrestle but I'm just being honest. Saturday afternoon will be an education for me, I hope you enjoy the show!

SHOW STARTS: 6:30PM

...WILL NOT DIE AT THE DONCASTER DOME

'The 3CW management team in association with Real Quality Wrestling have worked long and hard over the weekend to ensure that the best possible line-up is presented at this weekend's rescheduled ...Will Not Die event. Now, finally, we can reveal some of what will be happening, and which stars you will see, all of which were a part of 1PW or scheduled to be.' I want to personally thank all of the people that have put together this 1PW send off show!

We can exclusively reveal that Ulf Hermann WILL be a part of Will Not Die on Saturday at the Doncaster Dome - This man has killed himself for the 1PW fans with tremendously brutal matches v Abyss (including having himself set on fire!), if anyone deserved to be a part of this show it was Ulf Hermann!

This man has done everything for 1PW be there to see his last appearance at 1PW this Saturday night at 6:30pm live from the Doncaster Dome!

1PW Openweight Title

Kid Kash v PAC (c) - This is the match! The one I'm travelling from Birmingham, England to see! Thank you so much to organisers for making this happen!! PAC is sure fire star of the future and defending Champion. PAC won the 1PW Openweight title back at 1PW Fight Club 4. (PAC threw Jonny Storm over the top rope to win the Battle Royal to crown the first ever 1PW Openweight Champion).

Kash has had a storied career (ECW, TNA, and WWE) thus far. It was well renowned that the team of Jamie Noble and Kid Kash had their legs cut off when a feud v Paul London and Brian Kendrick was on the cards! Kash in most fans opinions (including mine) was misused in the WWE now is his chance for redemption!! Fair play to him for flying over, 1PW fans sit back and enjoy this match. No hype needed!

Pac to retain? Kash to take the 1PW Openweight Title on first ever Doncaster Dome visit? Find out this Saturday night live at 6:30pm! This match is not to be missed!!

Sterling James Keenan this man turned up with all due respect not many knew who he was. He attacked Spud and proceeded to have one of the hottest feuds in the companies history with him! Keenan arrived as a star at 1PW All or Nothing Night 2 (March 5th 2006) when he matched Scorpio in my personal favourite ever 1PW match! Like Ulf Hermann, I'm incredibly happy that SJK can be here for the very last 1PW show, he deserves it.

Who will SJK face in his final 1PW match? (Suppose to face The Great Muta originally), I have no idea! Find out this Saturday Night at 6:30pm live from the Doncaster Dome!

I honestly thought it might be Colt Cabana, but Colt is Wrestling for PWG in the U.S. on Saturday so it won't be! But who will Darren Burridge choose? Once again I honestly have no idea! Should be very interesting indeed. With the U.K.'s premier highflyers Jody Fleisch and Jonny Storm and the Damned Nation (Majik and Dragon Aisu) added to the match in a three way elimination battle this should be a very good contest also!!

Who will win and who will be Burridge's partner find out this Saturday live from the Doncaster Dome at 6:30pm!

'We would like to thank RQW, Alex Shane and Len Davis for sponsoring the event and helping make sure we can bring you the best experience possible at the Doncaster Dome on Saturday. The event will be recorded for TV courtesy of RQW and their crew, so many thanks again for their help and support in making Will Not Die a reality.' - I concur thank you guys so much for bringing the fans a show they will hopefully never forget!

RQW First Round Tag Team Title Tournament Qualifying Match as Team Supreme take on Team Dormanstown, Whitton & Richie, in what should be a fine display of British tag wrestling - Sorry but once again I can't comment on Wrestlers I have yet to see Wrestle or seen very little of.

Current RQW champion Martin Stone v UK Luchadore El Ligero - Big man little man match much like Spud v SJK feud! Stone is a very impressive Wrestler in his own right you do not become a Champion if you are not! He is going to bring the power game to this match, El Ligero will need to use his speed and quickness to out think the big man! This should be a fascinating contest.

El Ligero or Martin Stone? Find out who wins live from the Doncaster Dome live at 6:30pm this Saturday!

Davey Richards - Wow! I had heard a lot of hype surrounding Davey before the ROH Uk Debut show 'Unified'. He lived up to and exceeded it with tremendous performance v Jimmy Rave that night! I'm incredibly happy to see him make the journey over also!

You have to see this sure fire star of the future Davey Richards first time at the Doncaster Dome! Live at 6:30pm this Saturday night!

Spud - Mainstay, probably the best 'little' man in the industry! Has had some superb matches v SJK, Jonny Storm, Aviv Mayaan to name but a few in his short career. My hometown guy, but no bias is involved with my assessment of his impact in 1PW.

The Chavs - Hated, but incredibly gifted Wrestlers in their own right, Tag Gauntlet at 1PW 1YA proved that. Looking to give the 1PW fans one more showcase of their skills!

Andy Boy Simmons - Almost retired because of a crippling injury, but he's back! Glad to see it personally. Involved in 1PW Tag Tournament last May with Lance Storm (Justin Incredible dropped out), made his name in the FWA, continuing his career all the way through to 1PW.

Pain Inc - Sabotage and Ruffneck back with the 'Pain' this Saturday, rough and rugged but tough as hell!

Jay Phoenix - The man who rubbed a lot of people up the wrong way even Samoa Joe! Seems to have changed and matured as a Wrestler. Going as far as matching former 1PW Champion Steve Corino at Fight Club 3 and was very unfortunate in defeat in October 2006.

Adam Curtis - 1PW Reporter back at the Dome for one last time.

Mark Sloan - The most underrated Wrestler in the U.K. today! How he has been overlooked for so long is beyond me. One of the best technical Wrestlers in the UK! Wrestled a highly acclaimed match v ROH Champion Bryan Danielson in 2006. Glad to see him back after his and Ollie's performance during 1PW Tag Gauntlet (1PW 1YA 2006).

Ollie Burns - Mark Sloan's partner in the Entourage, very good Wrestler in his own right. Making a name for himself in different promotions around the U.K.

Mad Man Manson - The craziest Wrestler 1PW has ever seen! The man comes out in a straightjacket! Wrestles himself, I'm not kidding come see for yourself Saturday!

Dean Ayass - Been around for a long time!! Managed WWE's Burchill once upon a time! Took over commentary duties when Anthony Kingdom James and Joe Dombrowski left the company, and has done a good job!

Sweet Stevie Aaron - 1PW Ring announcer who has put a lot of effort into making sure the show took place! Thank you Stevie.

Darkside - Good Wrestler in his own right, looking for that one match that would leave an impression on all the fans minds in the arena!

And more yet to be announced!

Final Thoughts:

My Fight Club preview is not the best as I have never seen 3CW the company so my apologies on that front! PAC v Stevie Lynn should be a very good match! Then on the main show you have Ulf Hermann, SJK, Kash and Davey Richards! Kash v PAC could be the Match of the entire day! Davey is a star of the future, Ulf deserves send off and SJK also! Who will SJK's opponent be??

Tag match should be great fun but who will Burridge's partner be! Ligero v Stone should be an awesome flashback to Spud v SJK feud. This should be a tremendous day of Wrestling, if you can be there (like me) you can not miss this show!
