"El Patron" Oliver John has words for NWA: Pro Wrestling Revolution Champ Blue Demon Jr.

El Patron Oliver John from the Border Patrol® lets Pro Wrestling Revolution Heavyweight Champion Blue Demon Jr, what is coming his way on July 30th,

New Talent to debut for NWA Pro Australia, but not new to the NWA.

At NWA Pro Wrestling Australia a new #1 contender to the NWA Australian National Championship, currently around the waste of Hartley Jackson, will be named through an 8 Man Tournament. Wrestlers from across Australia will get an opportunity to be named the top contender to the gold. But two of the names will be very familiar to NWA Wrestling fans in the United States, New Jersey to be more precise.

Competing in New Jersey working with Ring of Honor, Chikara, and Combat Zone Wrestling, Australian Natives, Ryan Eagles and Jack Bonza were perfecting their craft in the United States. Both had been actively competing in Australia's PWA, but where looking for additional opportunities in the States. NWA DAWG Representative Jaden said "I think its great that these guys came over here looking to expand their horizons." Jaden would continue to say "Ryan Eagles and Jack Bonza were both very talented." They both competed on the same team during an 8 man tag team match for NWA Vintage, prior to its closing and were both expected to participate in an upcoming NWA DAWG show.

While in New Jersey Ryan Eagles had impressed many in the NWA New Jersey area. Eagles was originally scheduled to take on Damien Wayne on May 21st for the NWA DAWG Championship but wasn't cleared to wrestle and was replaced.

Jack Bonza is a name that should be with NWA Fans in Arizona and California. Bonza was a regular tag team partner with Shane Haste in Arizona and even appeared on the NWA Showcase back in 2008.

Both men have the opportunity of a LIFE TIME June 25th at Ground Zero.



The Return of NWA Mexico... in London?

MAÑANA PARTE LA GIRA PARA LONDRES CON LA NWA MEXICO LES MANTENDRE INFORMADO
--Blue Demon Jr.'s Twitter

The rough translation of Blue Demon Jr's tweet is "PARTY TOMORROW FOR LONDON TOUR WITH MEXICO NWA will keep you informed." Apparently LuchaFuture has booked the entire NWA Mexico group for a series of events in the UK. June 24th through the 26th at the Roundhouse in London, the 28th at Sage in Gateshead, and finally July 1st and 2nd at the Dome in Brighton. Expected luchadors are the former reigning NWA Worlds Heavyweight Champion Blue Demon Jr., Cassandro, Mango, NWA Mexican Lightweight Champion Skayde, Hantar, Arez,     NWA Mexican Welterweight Championship Turbo, Hanaoka, Black Thunder, Super Nova, Eragon, Ikaro, Kronos, Mr. Katana, and Dr. Cerebro.

This isn't the first time Blue Demon Jr. has been to the United Kingdom representing the NWA.  His previous tenure as NWA Worlds Champion saw him defend the title December 9th 2008 against Solar.  El Hijo de la Leyenda Azul is currently the reigning NWA Pro/Pro Wrestling Revolution Heavyweight Champion.  No word yet if he'll be defending the Revolution Heavyweight Title while in London.  That title has been defended in Mexico and Portugal previously.

Top 10 to watch in NWA Pro/EPW in 2011 – Part II

In part one, we took a look at Brett Foxx, Jay Taylor, Chase Griffin, Chris Vice and Tyler Jacobs. Now we look at the five hottest rising stars in EPW today.

#5 - Sebastian Sander
Now the fact that Sander is not #1 in this list may cause some debate. But there is a good reason for him not placing higher. Sebastian Sander is a main event level star RIGHT NOW. For the past 12 months, this man has led his team into battle against the Blackest Hour. He took the fight to Richter, time and time again, with no fear in his eyes. At Re-Awakening he stepped into the ring with three of the best wrestlers in this country and was clearly the most dominant force in the match. Not only that, but he scored a pinfall victory over experienced veteran Rocky Menero. Sebastian Sander is the real deal and 2011 WILL see him recognized as the top level superstar that he is.

#4 - Carlo Cannon
As a former EPW tag team champion, Carlo has been severely underestimated as a force in the singles ranks for most of his career. Everywhere Carlo has travelled, he has been known in concert with his tag team partner, Slex. For years, Slex has been considered one of the very best in Australia while Carlo has lived in his shadow. But 2010 saw a far more serious Carlo as he took Davis Storm to the limit in April before scoring a huge win over former EPW champion, Bobby Marshall in September. Cannon is ready to take aim at the very best in 2011 and finally establish his name once and for all.

#3 - Kiel Steria
Another man who has constantly lived in the shadow of his tag team partner, Kiel Steria returned from Los Angeles with a new attitude in 2010. With his new agent, William Darcy, leading the charge, Steria went from career underachiever to the finals of the Invitational Tournament in twelve short months. While he never lacked the ability, Kiel now has the confidence to become a top line player in EPW. With Darcy and Hayden Zenith in his corner, the man known as ‘Hollywood’ will be a tough customer for anyone who encounters him this year.

#2 - AZ Vegara
In a recent poll, the wrestlers of EPW voted Shane Haste as the best wrestler in their ranks. In April of this year, AZ Vegara managed to score the biggest win of his career in defeating Shane Haste. From early 2010, this seemed like it would be the year that Vegara finally become a main event player. But with his regular tag team partner, Damian Slater, unavailable for the second half of the year, AZ lost focus and the year slipped away. He is now focused and ready to live up to the hype that has surrounded him for so long. AZ Vegara could be considered as the single most talented wrestler to never wear a championship in EPW. I would be shocked if we can say the same thing in a year’s time.

#1 - Marcus Pitt
From day one, Pitt had all the tools required to make it in EPW. With a physique and work ethic that was second to none, he set about making a name for himself by any means necessary. As a longtime member of the European Union, Marcus was employed as the muscle of the team but was often left as the lamb to the slaughter as Jonathon Wimbledon’s plans went awry. Since breaking away from the Union, his climb up the EPW ladder has been steady but unspectacular. In mid 2010, Marcus made the commitment that he would never again let an opportunity slip through his grasp. He beat the odds to defeat Chris Vice, Elliot Sexton, Kiel Steria and Carlo Cannon and become the Invitational Tournament winner for 2010. He has now etched his name alongside Jimmy Payne, Davis Storm, Shane Haste, Richter and Tyler Jacobs. He now wants the same thing that those five men have had that he has not. The EPW championship. With more than four years experience under his belt now, Pitt is ready to become the superstar that he always threatened to be. 2011 could be the year that Marcus Pitt truly becomes the ‘Golden Greek’.

Watch this special presentation of IZW Impulse, featuring an intense one-on-one match between GQ Gallo and Apollo, eminating from the historic Celebrity Theatre in Phoenix, Arizona. For more information on NWA-IZW, log on to www.impactzonewerstling.com.

EPW suspended Bobby Marshall, how long before M1W follows?



Before the new M1W Champion ran rickshaw over the Mach 1 Pro Wrestling roster, Bobby Marshall was raising hell against Richter and the Darkest Hour in Explosive Pro Wrestling.  Marshall's actions after this match led to his suspension in the NWA in Perth, Western Australia.  How long before the ticking time bomb goes off in Mach 1?  How long before Marshall wraps a chair around the head of an official of M1W?  The NWA had previous placed sanctions against Marshall back in 2006.  How long before Jon Ian and the rest of M1W regret their decision to bring in this lose cannon.

Marshall continues his war against the world of wrestling when he takes on Jaysin Stryfe, this Friday at 8:05PM at the American Sports Center.  Stryfe comes back to M1W from Counsil Bluffs, Iowa for a shot at the M1W Championship. Stryfe’s accomplishments include: Former NWA Midwest X Division Champion, 2009 Chikara Young Lion Cup entrant, and Retired AWA RUSH Tag Team Champion. Stryfe now wants to add M1W Champion to his resume.  M1W will also move towards crowning a new tag team champions.

NWA Australia vs. Explosive Pro Wrestling - Adelaide

It started back at EPW Adelaide's Revolution. At the start of the event, Mark Aiston announced the company would be expanding nationally with the help of the NWA. Benny English was opposed to this idea as he wants to keep EPW in his grasp and stay in complete control. At the end of the Revolution, Benny English went on to fire Mark Aiston and the majority of the roster stating that it's EPW who owns the ring and its EPW who has the contracts with the venues, not the National Wrestling Alliance. Mark Aiston responded to English stating that if he wants a war, then he has got one. With Mark Aiston and half the roster apparently fired from EPW, what will happen at the next event?

And at Ground Zero, the NWA Australia & Explosive Pro Wrestling - Adelaide battled for control of the company. The fans seemingly in favor of the NWA Australia and souring on the EPW-A group. The night's battle culminated when the NWA Australian Heavyweight Champion, Jayson Cooper, defeated EPW Adelaide's Slex. The fall out of Ground Zero is unsure, however the NWA successfully defeated EPW. And the promotion has been renamed NWA Pro Wrestling (Australia) and a National Tour has been announced.

Explosive Professional Wrestling was founded in Perth, Western Australia in 2001. Since that time, EPW has held some of the finest wrestling shows in Australia while building a reputation as the best produced wrestling product in the country. In 2004, EPW entered the National Wrestling Alliance.

EPW had expanded into South Australia with the spin off promotion EPW-Adelaide. With the recent events in South Australia, it appears that NWA Pro will now be representing the NWA in Southern Australia.

NWA Week in Review for March 7th, 2009

The Showcase returns to Hollywood CA at the Columbia Square Studios. The NWA plans on two big television tapings on March 7th and 8th. Scheduled to appear are; NWA Worlds Heavyweight Champion Blue Demon, Jr., NWA Worlds Tag Team Champions “The Skullkrushers”, NWA North American Champions Mike DiBiase, NWA National Heavyweight Champion “Universal Soldier” Phil Shatter, “Scrap Iron” Adam Pearce, Oliver John and the Boarder Patrol, Puerto Rico’s Apollo, “Shooter” Brent Albright, Lance Cade & Trevor Murdoch, Muscle Gang, Joey Ryan, Canada’s Nelson Creed, The Young Bucks, and “American Dragon” Bryan Danielson. NWA Pro officials also confirmed none other than Tristan Gallo the self-professed "Half-Breed Heart Throb." This is great news for the ladies! I will be in attendance and I will try to bring you some of the action here.
In recent weeks we've talked about some of the biggest names in wrestling history. Ric Flair making an appearance for NWA Mid-Atlantic. Shawn Michaels attending the EWF's school of Hard Knocks. Even the man who disrespected the legendary 10lbs of gold has been re-connected to the NWA. Add Bill Dundee and the "King" Jerry Lalwer as they bring their feud of nearly 3 decades to NWA Main Event. Lawler has appeared a few times in association with NWA Main Event several times this year and last. When Lawler isn't making appearance for the NWA he still does commentary for the WWE.
Speaking of WWE, recently released Super Crazy has come to a multiple date agreement with the Management of Pro Wrestling Revolution. Pro Wrestling Revolution brings some of the hottest luchadores to Northen California. Including appearances from Los Misterios (El Hijo De Rey Misterio and Rey Misterio Sr.), Sicodelico Jr., El Hijo de Sicodelico, Rayman, and even Worlds Heayvweight Champion Blue Demon Jr. The Demon defended his title in Pro Wrestling Revolution against Oliver John.
And now Blue Demon Jr. proudly defends his NWA Championship against fellow NWA Champion, Ryan Taylor. A dual title holder, holding his home promotions American Championship and the NWA Heritage Title, Taylor has made a career of being an underdog. Even holding victories over the King of Underdog, TJ Perkins. Blue Demon Jr. will have to keep his guard up. This match is scheduled for this Sunday regardless of his matches for the showcase tapings. This could be a fatal judgment error for the champ.
If Blue Demon can leave this weekend title intact, he will have a future defense in Charlotte, North Carolina. As Bob Trobich and JD Costello announced that a Worlds Title match will be taking place in May or June. The schedule is being worked out and contracts are being finalized. On the live event the show announced that they would be running weekly 30 minute long shows. The first one being made available at http://digitaltuxedo.com/.
Lastly NWA Southwest's NWA Oklahoma has announced its plans to run on Tribal Lands and Indian Owned Casinos. The staff at OK had mentioned that they have been getting requests from lots of Tribes to promote shows in these venues. The relationship with these venues will likely give NWA OK more dates and already allowed them to help book the NWA Southwest's 11th Anniversary show. NWA OK has also expressed interest in competing in joint shows with NWA Arizona's Impact Zone Wrestling to promote joint shows in Oklahoma.
