As ever, PTW Owner Peter Staniforth has decided to change the card just a little bit last minute. You can always be sure that he’s up to something, and this time it’s big.
Making his PTW debut, is one intense man. He is former 3CW World Champion, and current 1PW star – the man known as Dragon Aisu. He contacted the PTW Office, and demanded a match already signed to be changed. He said that he wanted to team with Cameron Kraze against Prince Mohamed Ameen, in what will be an explosive tag team encounter that could main event anywhere around the United Kingdom. We welcome Dragon Aisu to Power Trip Wrestling, but with a slightly nervous feeling of what might be to come……..
Here’s an in-depth preview of the show, as we get even closer to PTW’s first show of the year, ‘New Beginnings’, on Saturday 2nd February; in Wakefield!
MAIN EVENT : FOR THE VACANT PTW HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE – SHABAZZ w/PTW OWNER PETER STANIFORTH VS ‘EXOTIC’ LEO DEKKER
In the main event of the evening, PTW’s most popular star Shabazz, will face off against the debuting ‘Exotic’ Leo Dekker. Dekker, despite his bizarre appearance, can get the job done, and has held the heavyweight title of other companies in the past. In a interesting side note, this was under the management of no less than PTW Owner Peter Staniforth himself. But Peter will be in the corner of Shabazz on February 2nd, does this give the advantage to Shabazz? Or has Leo Dekker changed his gameplan to render this irrelevant? One thing is for sure, despite an unstable end to 2007 with unprofessional attitudes from now former PTW wrestlers; there WILL be a new heavyweight champion crowned on the night and PTW’s future will be assured from then on.
PTW CRUISERWEIGHT TITLE MATCH – DAN RYDER (c) VS G ‘THE GHETTO SUPERSTAR’
The bad feeling between G ‘The Ghetto Superstar’, and Dan Ryder; goes back to August 2007 and PTW ‘Glory Days’ in Luton. G won the title, and it seemed Ryder just couldn’t accept his friend’s success. Ryder would hit him with the title belt, and G’s reign lasted just one month as Dan defeated him in September and has held the championship since. But it’s a new year, it’s 2008, and both men are ready to fight one more time with it all on the line. Added to the tension, is the fact that the entire match could rest on the result of another match scheduled on the card….
WINNER IS ALLOWED TO BE RINGSIDE FOR THE PTW CRUISERWEIGHT TITLE MATCH – GERADEN VS DANNY DEVINE
Both men in this match have teamed up with the participants in the Cruiserweight Title match, Geraden with G; and Danny Devine with Dan Ryder (collectively known as 3Some). Both wanted to be at ringside for their friend, but were told that whichever one would be there – would EARN it. Can the fast paced rising star of Geraden, defeat Danny Devine, and make sure G’s back is secure for any potential dirty tricks from Dan Ryder? Or will the cunning but very talented Danny Devine pull a rabbit from his hat, and put the youngster in his place with his usual mix of wrestling and underhanded tactics?
TAG TEAM ACTION – CAMERON KRAZE & DRAGON AISU VS PRINCE MOHAMED AMEEN & MARTIN KIRBY
Here’s a potential show stealer, according to PTW fans. Looking at the participants, Dragon Aisu will be wanting to make the kind of impact that only he can, on his PTW debut. Cameron Kraze hasn’t been in PTW for a few months, and will be looking at this as a chance to justify a regular place on the shows. Ameen is looking at PTW as a place to try and take over. Kirby has always had excellent matches when appearing for PTW, and will be wanting to keep that reputation going. As said earlier, this one could main event around the country!
JAY COOL w/PETER STANIFORTH VS MR PORTUGAL
Jay Cool is a relative newcomer to professional wrestling, and is one half of the tag team known as Team Woo!. Cool’s tag team partner was recently injured on another show, and Jay asked for this match against Mr Portugal; and he believes he knows who is under the mask. He won’t say, but hopes to win the match, unmask Mr Portugal, and prove it. Mr Portugal was reached for comment, but translation proved that he was purely taking advantage of PTW’s inability to speak Portugese and not taking it seriously. Either that, or he really DOES have some kind of infatuation with Cristiano Ronaldo of Manchester United!
TAG TEAM ACTION – ‘THE NATURAL SUPERSTARS’ DARREN MASON & NATHAN IRWIN VS KYLE ASHMORE & ‘100 %’ DAN EDGE
The team of Darren Mason & Nathan Irwin are looking to show Power Trip Wrestling that they’re worthy of being around on a regular basis, and they’ve got to prove it against Kyle Ashmore and Dan Edge. Edge is a PTW regular, and has an ongoing power struggle with Peter Staniforth. Is Edge looking to recruit talent in his attempt to eventually take over Power Trip Wrestling? Or will Mason and Irwin live up to their team name, and take the victory?
‘GOLDEN GLOVES’ PAUL MCSHERRY w/PETER STANIFORTH VS MATT MYERS
In what was a contender for the most shocking moment of 2007 in Power Trip Wrestling, at ‘Hardcore Halloween’ in October Paul McSherry jumped ‘to the good side’, as Peter Staniforth put it tactfully; and accepted a position as Peter’s new bodyguard. Paul is on the rise, not just in PTW but in other companies too; and he’s looking to show that his reputation is justified as a future star and also a legitimate tough guy. Matt Myers is sort of a Northern mirror image of McSherry, and this should be a fascinating clash.
HE’S BACK! – JOHN CHAPMAN’S PTW RETURN – JOHN CHAPMAN VS STEVIE LEE
One of the loudest characters in UK Wrestling is back in Power Trip Wrestling for the first time since PTW ‘Superstitious’ in April 2007, and that is John Chapman. Despite his arrogance and other dubious characteristics, Power Trip Wrestling is both happy and proud to welcome him back; as he faces off against another returnee; this time from July 2007’s breast cancer fundraising charity show ‘Faith, Hope, & Charity’- Stevie Lee. This should be a great match, with the sneaky Chapman taking on the perennial underdog in Lee.
