AWL Mid-Week Wrestling 110.5: Styles vs. Masters

AWL Mid-Week Wrestling 110.5: Styles vs. Masters by AWLBoss

Final Round of 16 Match

Still no news on the matter discussed yesterday.  Frankly, I'm getting worried.  I've been getting the impression that I shouldn't be asking questions, that I should just sell the wrestling shows.  So, for the moment, that's what I'm going to do.

THIS WEEK ON AWL MID-WEEK WRESTLING....

For the first time, an AWL Championship Tournament Match will take place on Mid-Week Wrestling!

"Phenomenal" A.J. Styles vs. "Penultimate Fighter" Lee Masters

Round of 16 Match

Since he was busy LOSING the AWL World Light Heavyweight Championship at AWL 110, A.J. Styles will have his Round of 16 Match against Less Master's this week on MWW!  The leader of the Bullet Club verses on half of the most decorated tag team in the AWL today.  A relative AWL newcomer verses a Season 0 Veteran.  A pure professional wrestler verses a unique hybrid of pro wrestling and MMA.

While Styles may be the odds on favorite, this tournament has been FULL of surprises and an upset win by Lee Masters would not be the biggest shock of the Round of 16.

Tune in tomorrow and find out who will be the last man to advance to the Quarter Finals.

THIS JUST ADDED!!

News flash from the Commissioner's office!  The Initiation Gauntlet Match for THUGLIFE田中健一 is now No DQ and No Countout at the request of the Bullet Club.

Also, as you can see from the still image above, HAKAISHA and DOOMBUNNY will have a rematch against Crisis Gundan.  2 points will be on the line and there will be a 15 minute time limit!

Tanaka Kenichi is an idiot!

Granted, that should go without saying, but now he's done something REALLY stupid.  Earlier today, AWL HQ received an email from Tanaka saying (once we'd deciphered his near illegible Japanese and his completely illegible English) that he wanted to join the Bullet Club.

We contacted AJ Styles and after Squire of Trios, he agreed to give the kid a chance.  So at AWL Mid-Week Wrestling, THUGLIFE 田中健一 will face both Bad Luck Fale AND AJ Styles in an initiation   gauntlet match!!

AWL 108 fall out

As a result of the events of AWL 108, 黒山(Kuroyama) has been released from his AWL contract.  We wish him all the best in his future endeavors.

Similarly, since both Super Giant & Jack Butcher are still part of this company, they will be allowed to remain as a tag team and they still have 2 points.  They will receive a chance to get a third point tomorrow at AWL Mid-Week Wrestling 108.5.  After the amazing match Jack Butcher had with HAKAISHA, the AWL Commissioner wants to see that pairing again and so do I.  Therefore the following match has been booked:

Crisis Gundan (2) vs. HAKAISHA! & DOOMBUNNY (1)

Points on the line

Remember, The Japanese Destroyer and the DOOMBUNNY earned a point against the Bullet Club a few weeks ago when when HAKAISHA! was assigned to help the man from the Strawberry Patch get his revenge on A.J. Styles after the 104 screwjob.

Mid-Week Wrestling will be posted in less than 24 hours!  I'm sure you wait with baited breath.

Lastly a little out of continuity news: I will be attending TNA/Wrestle-1's Bound for Glory show in Tokyo this Sunday.  Stay tuned for a review of the show after the fact (this may be in text or video format, unsure at the moment).

News update 9/23/14

It's official, Wonder Kid is no longer affiliated with Yarina Talent Management Inc.  As you all saw at AWL 106, Yarina (who doesn't seem to be quite in her right mind these days) fired her longest serving client Wonder Kid.  These two have been a team since Season 2 with Yarina making her first ever appearance for the AWL in episode 21!  To see such a long running relationship end because of a single act of defiance is more than a little disturbing.

Speaking of disturbing.....The DOOMBUNNY! is once again the #1 Contender to the AWL World Light Heavyweight Title.  A.J. Styles managed to retain the belt against Super Giant this past weekend.  So that score will be settled sometime in the near future.

Lastly for today, we have learned that Big & Spicy will face The Masters of the Mask at AWL Mid-Week Wrestling this week.  After wrestling to a 10 minute draw last week, this time the match will be contested under a 15 minute time limit with 2 points on the line!

See you tomorrow for Mid-Week Wrestling, and stay tuned all week for all the news and goings on in the Animated Wrestling League.

Since we didn't have an episode of Mid-Week Wrestling last week, here's a double header with 2 tag team matches:

Crisis Gundan vs. The New Classics
and
The Masters of the Mask vs. Big & Spicy

AWL Mid-Week Wrestling 103.5

AWL Mid-Week Wrestling 103.5 by AWLBoss

And after a hasty re recording, here's the first outing of the NEW AWL World Tag Team Champions!

Tag Matsuri Fallout

First and foremost: We have NEW Tag Team Champions!  Dragon and Ganba bested Crisis Gundan this past weekend to win the gold.  This leaves Yarina without a single title to her name.  And you all know the AWL Commissioner's ultimatum, if she doesn't control all 3 title by the end of the season.....she's out!

In other news, Dragon & Ganba have chosen a tag team name: The AWL All Stars.

I'll get to the preview for Mid-Week Wrestling in a moment, but let's take a look at the standings in the Tag Team Division:

AWL All Stars: CHAMPIONS
The All Americans: 3 points.
Danger Riders: 1 point.
Masters of the Mask: 1 point.
A.J. Styles & Ma-Ji-Ku: 1 point.
Dragon & James: 1 point.*
All other teams: 0 points.

*With Dragon currently 1/2 of the AWL World Tag Team Champions, Dragon & James are considered an "On the shelf" tag team.

Now for the official preview of tomorrow's AWL Mid-Week Wrestling:

AWL All Stars (C) vs. The Masters of the Mask (1)

Non-Title Match

Yes, the new AWL World Tag Team Champions will be in rare non-title action this week.  Not only will points be on the line for the two luchadors, but you the AWL fans will get to see, for the first time anywhere, the AWL All Star's new tag team entrance!!

AWL Mid-Week Wrestling 103.5 will be posted in less that 24 hours.

AWL Mid Week Wrestling 102.5: Quest for 3 Points!

The prologue to this weekend's Tag Matsuri 2014.

It's time for the 2014 Tag Matsuri! (Or it will be this weekend)

At the end of every summer, the AWL holds a little event to celebrate the art and awesomeness that is tag team wrestling.  It's the AWL Tag Matsuri!  For those of you who don't know, matsuri (祭) means "festival" in Japanese.  In the past, we've had tag team tournaments, tag team debuts, and tag team title matches.

Before we get to this year's festivities, let us review the current standings in the 3 point system:

Dragon & Ganba: 2 points.
Masters of the Mask: 1 point.
Dragon & James: 1 point.
A.J. Styles & Ma-Ji-Ku: 1 point.
All other teams: 0 points.

So not a lot of points in the system at the moment.  But that will change by this time next week.

First, there will be a tag team match at AWL Mid Week Wrestling tomorrow.  Dragon and Ganba will compete for their 3rd point against The New Classics.  IF Ganba and Dragon win that match, they will challenge for the titles at AWL 103.

AWL Mid-Week Wrestling will be posted tomorrow.  I'll be back the following day with the full line up for AWL 103: Tag Matsuri 2014!

AWL Mid Week Wrestling 101.5

AWL Mid Week Wrestling 101.5 by AWLBoss

The triumphant return of AWL Mid-Week Wrestling!  The new numbering system is meant to make it clear where episodes fall in the AWL timeline.  101.5 means that this episode falls between AWL 101 & 102.

Tonight, we continue our search for the top 16 contenders in the AWL Championship Tournament.  In tonight's qualifying match, El Santo Azul faces Jon Shina.  It's the man who barely survived Batsumania against the man who.....got plastic surgery to look more like John Cena.

Where do we find these nuts?
