Here we go!

                The 2018 New Year’s Tournament is in the history books and it’s time to return to ordinary business for the Animated Wrestling League.  Season 12 of the AWL will begin with what we are considering a “jumping on point” that will introduce you to some of our wrestlers, our rules system, and some of our traditions.

                One of those traditions will be on display in the main event: The Champion’s Showcase!  Traditionally, The Champion’s Showcase is when the AWL Grand Champion and Intercontinental Champion team up against the AWL World’s Tag Team Champions.

                There’s just one problem…we don’t currently have an IC champion.  So, the AWL Commissioner has booked something he calls “The Ultimate Champion’s Showcase” as the main event of AWL 221.

                It will be a trios match pitting the AWL Grand Champion HAKAISHA! AND the AWL World’s Tag Team Champions T49P against three champions from friends of the AWL…New Japan Pro Wrestling! 

The still reigning IWGP Heavyweight Champion shall team up with two men making their AWL Debuts.  First, fellow member of Chaos and reigning IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Champion, “The Aerial Assassin” Will Osprey will bring his internet breaking style of highflying wrestling to the AWL.  Second, and I admit I’m burying the lead a bit here, the reigning IWGP Intercontinental Champion, the Ace of New Japan, the once in a century talent, Tanahashi Hiroshi!!  The champions of the AWL versus the past present and future of New Japan!  It all happens this Sunday morning Japan time at the AWL Arena in Tokyo.
