This
weekend, AWL 263 will be a one match show.
That match will be *sigh* a stagger start over the top rope battle
royale. Yep. We’re doing a royal rumble match.
On the
plus side, you’ll get to see 30 AWL Wrestlers in one match and the winner of
this match walks out with a Golden Opportunity which, as anyone who watched AWL
261 can tell you, is an express ticket to the AWL Grand Championship.
On the down
side, there’s apparently a rule that EVERY wrestling company has to have a
rumble match now. Lucha Underground has
Aztec Warfare, Chikara has the Infinite Gauntlet, MLW has Battle Riot, NJPW has
the Wrestle Kingdom Jobber Battle Royal (or they did until this year), PWG has
the Gorilla Rumble, ROH has the Honor Rumble, etc. etc. etc. ad infinitum.
I guess
the wrestling police threatened to fine the AWL Commissioner if we didn’t start
doing one of these dumb things so next week 30 wrestlers will get the chance to
win a match without actually pinning or submitting anyone! YAY! (?)
It’ll
be called The Contractual Obligation Rumble.
