Thanks to staff, wrestlers and fans for making “Aftermath” a memorable show! - September is looking to be a “can’t miss month” for Ultimate Wrestling fans.

Do not MISS ‘Ecstasy of Gold’ on Sept 12th in Milton! - September 5th, ‘Retribution’, will also be a huge night for Ultimate Wrestling. “Brutal” Joe Gibson has issued a challenge to Deathrow in a match never seen in Ultimate Wrestling before. Gibson was “knocked loopy” as one wrestler put it, by Deathrow on August 1st in Pensacola. Joe Gibson claims that Deathrow has a “hit and run” bully attitude. Joe is tired of Deathrow get a cheap advantage and then leaving before the fight is over. Deathrow claims, in an unofficial statement, that the fight was definitely over on August 1st when he tied Gibson up in the ropes with a chain. As many times as these monsters have tied up, neither one has a win over the other. Joe has challenged Deathrow to a special match on the 5th. On September 5th at ‘Retribution’, in Pensacola, FL, at the American Legion Post 33, for the first time ever, it will “Brutal” Joe Gibson taking on Deathrow in a Dog Collar Match. Both men will have a chain tied around their neck, so as Joe Gibson put it, “neither man can run from each other.” There will be a winner to settle this very violent feud on September 5th. You WILL NOT want to miss this one. - “Aftermath” was one of Ultimate Wrestling’s more violent shows. Bobby Doll has been on the edge of sanity lately and he may have crossed the line on August 1st. Doll has been “ready to snap” since being stripped of the tag team titles and having his Ultimate Legend partner and friend, Robert Gibson, fired from UW. Bobby has claimed that his issue is with UW management. Aeon Flexx, who has been feuding with Doll since May, never got the chance to take the tag team belts from Gibson and Doll. Flexx said that he knows he’s better than Doll and he proved in their “Tie Breaker Match” on August 1st when he beat him with a school boy. Doll had his mind on getting revenge on Diana Drake-Hearse and was not able to kick out of the roll up from the Canadian trained grappler. After the match, Doll went on a rampage and tied Flexx to the ropes and beat him with a chair, blodding Flexx in the process. Doll took blood from the wound on Flexx’s head and wiped it on his own face as a type of war paint, much to the disgust of the UW fans and staff. Flexx knows that he’s better in a two out of three falls scenario and has challenged Doll to a “Canadian Dungeon Match” on September 5th. The rules for the Canadian Dungeon Match are simple. It is a basic two out of three falls match. However, between each fall there is a 2 minute break. During those two minutes, the loser of the fall will be tied to the ropes. The winner can do anything he wants to the loser in that two minute period. After two minutes is up, the wrestler is untied and the match will continue. After the 2nd fall, either a winner will be declared, or the loser of the second fall will also be tied in the corner, and the match will continue for a third and final fall. ‘Retribution’ on September 5th is already becoming a CAN’ T MISS SHOW! - “The Former Sinner” Nick Virtue will be defending his Ultimate Wrestling Heavyweight Championship against “The Master of Devastation” Cameron Frost in Milton Florida on August 22nd at ‘Back With a Vengeance’. This will be a rematch from July 18th where Nick Virtue used mind games to get over on Frost. Will Frost be mentally prepared for his re- match in Milton? Will Nick Virtue be physically prepared as he favored his weak left knee on August 1st during the semi main event tag match. Frost is looking to capture the Heavyweight Title and go into Milton on September 12th and win the ‘Ecstasy of Gold’ tournament and become the first ever “Grand Slam Champion”. - Mr. Marcus Gibbs shocked the nay-sayers when he pinned Carlos D’Angelo, the current X- Factor champion, in the middle of the ring at “Aftermath” during a tag team dream match in Pensacola. Marcus Gibbs has a ton of momentum going into Milton when he challenges Carlos D’Angelo for the X-Factor Championship. Carlos even though he is being “hunted” is taking an offensive approach to Gibbs. Carlos had a great deal of respect for Gibbs, but a lot of that has gone away after Gibbs his Carlos with his finishing move, “The Bareback” unexpectedly. Carlos understands why Gibbs did it. Marcus Gibbs wants to get to a higher point in his career and the way he was doing things wasn’t getting him there. Marcus has dedicated his win at “Aftermath” to his “Beautiful African Princess.” Quick Rumors and Injury Reports Rumor going around is that Jet Angel will get a rematch with Maze on August 22nd in Milton, at ‘Back With a Vengeance’, but it will be a non title match. Maze said “I already beat Jet Lag once. Why should he get a shot at my belt again?” UW Management has had a flurry of calls and e-mails from wrestlers about getting bookings with Ultimate Wrestling. One individual who has had serious conversation with management promises that adding him to the roster will make the show much, much “Better”. Aeon Flexx has a shot at the Ultimate Wrestling Heavyweight Championship anytime he wants it. He currently is not “cashing in”, as he wants to end his almost 5 month feud with Bobby Doll. Then, he says, he can focus on winning gold. More names have been added to the ‘Ecstasy of Gold’ Tournament. Confirmed names to be in Milton on September 12th are current Ultimate Wrestling Heavyweight Champion “The Former Sinner” Nick Virtue, Mr. Marcus Gibbs, “Pure” Doug Pitt and Turbo Ted. More names will be announced as they are confirmed by UW Management. “Brutal” Joe Gibson was knocked out cold during his brawl with Deathrow at “Aftermath”. Joe was coherent after the confrontation, but you could tell nobody was behind the wheel. Deathrow was seen favoring his ribs after repeated shots from a chain. |
