Here we go again.

                Greetings wrestling fans!  While most of us are in the middle of our post Wrestlemania week hangovers (both figurative and literal as the case may be), the twelfth season of the Animated Wrestling League waits for no man!  At least this week we have a far saner number of matches scheduled.  Two of which, we already know about:

T49P (C) vs. Tiger Mask W (3)

AWL World’s Tag Team Championship Match

2^nd Title Defense

                Tiger Mask W earned their third point at SakuraMania Wrestle Genesis and, from what I hear, the AWL Commissioner wanted to save this title match for the Golden War and would have do if Team Victory had earned #1 contender status instead, but both Spring Tiger (speaking for Tiger Mask W) and T49P demanded that the match take place as soon as possible.  I can only guess as to the tiger team’s reasoning, but I know for a fact that Hassan and Kid Canada have been spoiling for a fight since their last title match was over 2 months ago!  Are they being hasty?  How will we find new challengers in time for Golden War 2018?  There are a lot of questions going into this, but one thing is certain, this is going to be one hell of a main event!

Matt Classic Jr. (OOX) vs. El Rudo Rojo

Test of Ten: Match #2

                As you can see from that big black X next to his name, Matt Classic Jr. has lost his first life in the Test of Ten.  Now, he must face El Rudo Rojo again and beat him if he hopes to not only continue his trials and earn a Golden Opportunity for Shin Jidai, but save his AWL Contract and possibly his wrestling career.  El Rudo Rojo?  He just needs to rack up wins if he wants to stay out of Batsumania this year (more on that later this week by the way).

                Those are the matches we already knew about, now for some actual news in this news post.  Last week’s trios match between the AWL team of Luke James, Ganba, and Doombunny versus The Augments went to a time limit draw.  This week, the AWL Commissioner has decided to up the ante to literally unprecedented levels and book the first ever AWL Atomicos Match!

Ganba, Luke James, HAKAISHA!, & The Doombunny vs. The Augments (Tetsu, Z, & X-Drone)

Atomicos Match

                Just in case you’re not familiar with the term, an Atomicos Match is also known as an 8-man tag team match.  It’s wrestled to one fall and standard AWL Rules apply.  As it’s a multi-man match, a 15 minute time limit will be in effect so those eight men (or 3 men, 4 machines, and 1 bunny) had better bring their A-game and have eyes in the back of their heads.  I pity the referee.

                More matches will be announced later this week.
