“The New Horror” Sami Callihan will battle “The Boricua Beast” Dan Maff in a Texas Death Match with the winner getting a title shot against PWS Champion Devon Moore. This is the second time Maff and Callihan have ever squared off. The first time was a 20 minute hard hitting classic which took place during Round Two of The 2011 Majestic Twelve Tournament, which was easily PWS’ best match thus far this year. With both of these men focussed on this Singles match with a Title shot on the line, it can certainly be expected that this will be a MOTY candidate as these two hungry heavyweights will stop at nothing to get to the Win.
Two Time WWE & Two Time WCW Heavyweight Champion Psycho Sid makes his PWS debut and he will do so against the hard hitting “Last Of A Dying Breed” Eddie Kingston. Kingston has been part of PWS since its first event in 2007 and over the past few years has taken on top stars such as Samoa Joe, Necro Butcher, and “The Ugandan Giant” Kamala amongst others in The PWS ring and will be looking to prove that he can take out the vicious Sid.
The PWS NY State Title will be on the line as newly crowned champion “The Premiere Athlete” Tony Nese defends against “Mr Standing 450″ Rich Swann, luchador El Gran Demono, “The Ariel Assault Assassin” Javi Air, the high flying Brian XL, and former TNA X Division Champion The Amazing Red in a Suicidal Six Way Match. This match features six of the best high flying and technically sound wrestlers on The East Coast today and will surely be a classic.
(Not in the broadcast due to restriction) Mick Foley might have his hands full as PWS Guest Commissioner as this will be the first PWS event where all five members of the devious Reality Check will be present. Reality Check has been stirring up problems in PWS for the past two years and no previous guest commissioners including The Pope, Jimmy Hart, Bill Apter, and Road Dogg have been able to stop them. Reality Check as a group is fresh off a big Win at PWS Spring Break Showdown where RC members Devon Moore, Kevin Matthews, and Danny Demanto defeated the reunited “D-Generates Of Wrestling” X Pac, Road Dogg, and Billy Gunn.
Reality Check’s Kevin Matthews with Alexa Thatcher in his corner will take on the returning Playa From The Himalayas Sonjay Dutt. Former PWS Champion Matthews is looking to make an example of Dutt as he attempts to climb back up the Singles ranks to reclaim his top spot while the agile technically sound Dutt, unphased by the size disadvantage in this matchup is looking to show the fans in Queens NY that he is one of the best pound for pound wrestlers in the world today.
Top Florida independent star “The Encore” Aaron Epic makes his PWS debut against Reality Check’s Danny Demanto with Velvet Sky in his corner. Both of these men are known for putting their bodies on the line and stopping at nothing to get a Win. Demanto has been part of PWS since day one in 2007 and has been in the PWS ring against an array of top stars including Kenny Omega, Low Ki, and the late “Dr Death” Steve Williams amongst others. Epic has been tearing up the FL indy scene and will be looking to make a huge splash in his NY debut for PWS, and taking out the hated “Cold Hearted Playa” from “Cherry Poppin Queens NY” at The Queens Elks Lodge would be a great way of doing so.
The popular 420 pound “Samoan Mastadon” Fala will face off against “The Prince Of Old School” Justin Corino whom will have his new 501 pound backflipping bodyguard Lucifer Darksyde in his corner. Fala is hot off Wins over Robbie E and Kenny Dykstra and looks to keep his Win streak going as Corino whom has been part of PWS since 2008 is looking to score his first victory. Will Darksyde’s massive pressence be enough to motivate Corino to the win? And what about Fala? Will he have some tricks of his own? Afterall it was at the last PWS event where Fala had the unannounced services of TNA Knock Out Rosita to counter his opponent Robbie E’s manager Cookie.
PWS Tag Team Titles will be on the line as the undefeated champions The Urban Legends defend in a Tag Team Gauntlet Match. The Urban Legends won the PWS Tag Team Title Tournament which featured top tag teams including The SAT, Air-O-Dynamic, The Manitoba Maulers, Grim Reefer & Azrieal, and former multi time WWE Champions Demolition , and have successfully defended against New England top team The Hoodz, The Best Around, The BQE, and The Outlaws From Hell amongst others. Now however the tandem of Wes Draven & Devious will have to defend against multiple tag teams in succession including the rhythmic duo of Joe Ayyo & Timmy Aiight and the 902 pound Nigerian Nightmares Maifu & Saifu. A lot of questions are posed already with this contest including the health of Wes Draven whom was recently suffered an injury. Will Wes be able to compete? If not what will this mean for The Urban Legends in their Title defense? There has been tension brewing between Timmy Aiight & Joe Ayyo , most recently occuring when Aaight no showed the last PWS event, leaving Ayyo to team with a drunken Kronik The Clown in an unsuccessful match against The Urban Legends which resulted in Ayyo snapping and beating Kronik with a metal pipe to the point where he had to be carried from the ring in a stretcher and legit taken to the hospital. Also looming in this match are of course the very large Nigerian Nightmares whom were set to make their PWS debut at PWS Spring Break Showdown ..against two other large men whom vacated the locker room before the match could take place. The Nightmares are certainly hungry, and adding PWS gold to their diet might be on their minds. With a lot of question marks raised, anything can happen here.
Plus … WSU Women’s wrestling returns to Pro Wrestling Syndicate with two special women’s matches!
In Singles action it will be newcomer Nikki Styx going head to head with Brittney Savage, and WSU Tag Team Titles will be on the line as The Belle Saints (Marti Belle & Tina San Antonio) defend their titles against The Boston Shore’s Amber & Alexxis Nevaeh.
Cage Fury Fighting Championships – “No Mercy” Live on GFL
CLICK HERE TO WATCH THIS SHOW LIVE
Cage Fury Fighting Championships (CFFC) is back with its second installment under Hoss Promotions. Entitled “No Mercy”, CFFC 7 will bring another night of action packed mixed martial arts action to the Resorts Hotel and Casino on Saturday, April 16, 2011. Headlining the show will be UFC and IFC Veteran, Andre Gusmao, make his middleweight debut against undefeated phenom, Tim “the South Jersey Strangler” Williams. Gusmao, who is primarily known for his striking ability, has three wins by TKO and two by submission under the Team Renzo Gracie banner. His opponent enters the bout with an undefeated record of 5-0 with four of the victories coming by submission. Judges get the night off when Williams fights as he has stopped all of his opponents before the final bell. The winner of this bout will be one of the contenders for the CFFC Middleweight Title in June.
The Co-Main Event will feature two stud featherweight contestants in Spa City BJJ/Ricardo Almeida student, Eddie Fyvie taking on Kurt Pellegrino MMA practitioner, Lester Caslow. Fyvie is a submission specialist while Caslow has the same amount of victories by submission or TKO. Their careers are almost a mirror image of each other and both are coming off losses. This is a do-or-die fight for these competitors and both will be eager to get back in the win column.
The main card will feature Olympic Alternate and Assistant Wrestling Coach at the University of Pennsylvania, Kyle Cerminara will make his long awaited MMA debut against scrappy veteran Ariel Sepulveda, who is coming off a submission victory in February of this year. Also, the ageless wonder, Anthony Dagostino is coming back to face Bill Bontcue in a special local attraction bout. Rounding out the main card will be rising lightweight star, Dave Church of Kurt Pellegrino MMA taking on Neil Johnson. The preliminary card will feature the new stars of CFFC as Mtume Goodrum, James Funaro, Billy Dee Williams, Steve Perez, and Richard Ostrum will all be making their professional debuts.
Ring of Fire: CHRIS HOLLAND… THE INVISIBLE MAN
The main event at Ring of Fire Backlash pits two men against each other that could not be more diametrically opposed. In one corner, you have Brandon Thatch, one of the most popular and hottest up and coming fighters not with the UFC. Thatch has heavy support in the community, and a presence that can be felt from magazines to constant internet chatter
And then you have Chris ‘The Hammer’ Holland.
On Sunday it was Holland that MMA.CLVR.TV was looking for at the Ground Zero MMA media day, his home gym. Ground Zero isn’t easy to find, and if you don’t know what you’re looking for, a small gym in a warehouse district lying in the shadow of Colorado Heights University, you will miss it. In that way, Chris Holland and his gym are the same.
The media day was attended by exactly one outlet, MMA.CLVR.TV, a point Nate Johnson, coach, teammate and part-owner of the gym (along with partner John Maldonado), was eager to talk about.
“We’re used to being ignored. You know who we are? We’re the place Rocky worked out at during Rocky III. Remember how the Russian was hooked up to all the machines, and Rocky was just running in snow? Grudge is the Russian gym [laughing], remember who won that fight?” Johnson said, smiling as he stood under an American flag that hangs above the wrestling mats. He is half serious, but not in the way you would think. He does believe there is a villain in this main event, but not a lumbering barely intelligible Drago; but one that Ring of Fire has created.
“They want Chris to be the villain, they need him to be the bad guy. He keeps knocking out their favorites. He beats the promoter’s friends, Williamson, Lopez, and now they want to fix all that by having Thatch beat Chris,” Johnson said.
It is pretty frequent that we hear a coach or a fighter talk about being the underdog, or being the bad-guy in the hopes of pumping themselves and their fan base up, however in this case, it may just be true. At the Ring of Fire event where Holland knocked out Lopez for instance, the crowd was so staunchly anti-Holland that when the first round KO happened, it wasn’t so much that they booed his victory, as they screamed at it. They didn’t hate Holland, they just loved Lopez.
And no one is more loved in the Colorado MMA community than Brandon Thatch.
But that didn’t stop Chris Holland from cracking a wide grin on Sunday as he spoke to us.
“Are you kidding me? I’m the main event at Ring of Fire! This is my UFC. If I think about it too much, I start to not believe anymore,” Holland said standing near a weight bench that he had just a moment earlier been doing reps on. He had arrived at the media day quietly, toting his young daughter and a dog that couldn’t weigh more than ten pounds. It was a comical image. This devastating force of nature in the ring, with fists the size of hams and shoulders that are currently holding the entire collective future of Ground Zero MMA on them, was as relaxed as could be.
