Sorry
for the delay in this week's blog posts ladies and gents. But we
wanted to make sure everything was on the up and up before we made
any announcements. This Sunday is the next AWL Super Card: Golden
War 2015! All the titles are up for grabs including, for the first
time ever, outside championships! Both the IWGP Heavyweight
Championship and the Lucha Underground Championship will be defended
in an AWL ring. The only non-title match will be the Light
Heavyweight Battle Royal to determine who challenges (ugh!) Super
Giant later that very night. Without further ado, here is the card
with a few new vital details:
AWL Super Card:
Golden War 2015!
Main Event:
HAKAISHA! (C) vs. Tiger Mask
II (#1)
AWL World Heavyweight
Championship Match
3rd Title Defense
AWL All Stars (C) vs. Crisis
Gundan (3)
AWL World Tag Team
Championship Match
3rd Title Defense
After successfully retaining
their titles last week, we now know that Dragon & Luke James will
have to make AWL history and defend their championships twice in as
many weeks. They face former champions and cheating bas***ds Crisis
Gundan. Speaking of whom...
Super Giant (C) vs. TBD
AWL World Light Heavyweight
Championship Match
1st Title Defense
Super Giant will have to wrestle
twice in one evening. We here at the AWL try to avoid this, but
that's what you get when you want to fight for more than one title at
a time. We will likely place both the Tag Title Match and the Battle
Royal early in the show to give both champion and challenger the
chance to rest and recuperate before this match.
AJ Styles (C) vs. "Lightning"
Mike Quackenbush
IWGP Heavyweight Championship
Match
New Japan Rules
A WHOLE lot of negotiation had to
happen for this match to be signed. One of the stipulations laid
down by NJPW was that the match had to be contested under their rule
system. That means a whopping 60 minute time limit and a 20 count on
the outside of the ring. Additionally, the rest of Bullet Club is
barred from the building. Lastly, the Mike Quackenbush that will
compete in this match is a version of The Master of 1000 Holds that
was pulled out of an earlier point in his own timeline (it's Chikara,
that kind of stuff happens) before his nagging injuries forced him to
retire from in-ring competition. The modern day version of the DOF
will likely have no memories of this experience.
Prince Puma (C) vs. Ma-Ji-Ku
Lucha Underground Championship
Match
2 out of 3 Falls
After successfully defending his
Lucha Underground Title less than 24 hours ago in The Temple (By the
way Drago, if you're looking for a job...), Prince Puma has to get on
a plane and fly halfway around the world to defend it yet again.
Such is the life of a champion. Dario Cueto agreed to this match to
get more publicity for his Temple and Konnan agreed to this match
because he knows that it's a good idea for a young luchador to travel
the world perfecting his craft. Furthermore, out of respect for
Lucha Libre tradition, Konnan has demanded that this be a 2 out of 3
falls match. The AWL Commissioner was quick to agree. Dario insisted that the AWL Commissioner find some "worthy competition
for my champion." Again, the boss was all too happy to comply.
Prince Puma will face the top luchador in the AWL, the man who held
the Light Heavyweight Title for more than 600 days, Ma-Ji-Ku.
DOOMBUNNY vs. Strike Taka vs.
El Santo Azul vs. El Rudo Rojo
Light Heavyweight #1
Contender's Battle Royal
A lot going on in this match.
First of all, there are no automatic rematches in the AWL. So even
though DOOMBUNNY got screwed out of the title, he still has to earn a
title shot. Strike Taka has long been Dr. Jigoku's least favorite of
his Augments. Golden War 2015 is a chance for the long limbed
luchador to prove himself to his creator. And as for El Santo Azul
and El Rudo Rojo, the brothers have recently come to blows yet again.
Now they get a chance to do so again...and get paid for it this
time!
All the action takes place at AWL
Super Card: Golden War 2015. Be there...or have a damn good excuse
why you weren't!
