AWL 75 Preview

No big wind up this week. Here's the card for AWL 75:

Main Event:

Wonder Kid (C) vs. Dragon—AWL World Heavyweight Championship Match!

With only 5 weeks to go until Wonder Kid achieves his goal of becoming the first ever 1 Year Champion in the history of the AWL World Title, every title match counts now more than ever and Dragon (looking for his 3rd championship) is as ready as he will ever be for this chance. This Friday we will have interviews with both champion and challenger so stay tuned!

Semi Final:

Crisis Gundan (C) vs. The All Americans—AWL World Tag Team Championship Match!

American Beetle and Hassan will cash in their 3 points and challenge Yarina's undefeated monsters HAKAISHA and Jack "Breakdown" Butcher for the tag titles. Will the yanks finally wrest some of the gold away from Yarina Talent Management inc.? Looking at the tale of the tape, I'd say it doesn't seem likely. But The All Americans are 2 time AWL World Tag Team Champions so it looks like this match will come down to Power vs. Heart. Find out which prevails at AWL 75.

“Big" Ben Nelson vs. Ultramantis Black

The #3 and #2 contenders in the AWL Best 4 face each other in a grudge match stemming from the beating that Nelson gave UMB in the 3-way match two weeks ago. The mysterious machinations on the malevolent mantis are still a mystery to all of us, but this week, UMB will be in a straight up fight with a straight up brawler in Ben Nelson.

The Super Tiger Brothers vs. The N.R.E—2 on 3 handicap match.

Finally, we will start this weekend's show with a weird match. After losing the AWL Light Heavyweight Championship to Tiger Mask last week, El Rudo Rojo and the N.R.E. are understandably upset. According to my sources, the "Proud Heels" marched into the AWL Commissioner's office and DEMANDED this match. Now for the weird part: The Commissioner agreed! It was just last season that the Commissioner was hiring Crisis Gundan to take out the N.R.E. (and in the case of Wrestler X, successfully so) and now he's granting them the advantage in a handicap match? It doesn't make any sense to me. But the AWL Commissioner has never steered us wrong before so I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt.

All that and more on AWL 75, coming to you via your computer screen this Sunday morning (Japan Standard Time).
