AUSTIN ARIES RETURNS TO 1PW AND ENTERS THE WORLD TITLE TOURNAMENT
The 8th and final slot in the 1PW World Title Tournament has been filled with the confirmation yesterday that former Ring Of Honor World Champion AUSTIN ARIES would be making his return to Doncaster, South Yorkshire for the ALL OR NOTHING weekend. Aries has signed for matches on both days facing SAMOA JOE in Round One of the tournament on Saturday March 4th and then going toe-to-toe with "The Fallen Angel" CHRISTOPHER DANIELS on Sunday March 5th.
When asked by Newsline if he had any reservations about coming into the tournament at this late date, Aries had this reply: "Reservations? Not a single one. I WILL BE the first-ever 1PW World Champion. My opening round match is against Samoa Joe. Go ask Joe how he feels about facing the man who ended his 21 month reign as ROH Champion. Reservation THIS." Mr. Aries then made an obscene gesture that is perhaps best not described here.
SUNDAY NIGHT EXCITEMENT HITS DONCASTER
Less than 3 weeks to go until 1PW crowns its first-ever champion, but that new champion won't have long to rest on his laurels. Whomever dons the crown as 1PW World champion on Saturday night March 4th will have to return to the Dome Leisure Centre on Sunday night March 5th to defend that title against "The Peep's Champion" CHRISTIAN CAGE. As was previously announced, all 8 men entered in the tournament have matches scheduled for Sunday night, but one of the those matches will change to allow the new champion to face Christian.
Also on Sunday, former ECW World Tag and World Television champion (2 COLD) SCORPIO makes his 1PW debut against "The Phenomenal One" AJ STYLES. Neither man is a stranger to the hard-hitting, high-flying style whether people call it "X" or "Extreme" and this match has the potential be be a show-stealer. Then, 1PW's heavy-hitters will be on hand when "The Man-Beast" RHINO meets "The Samoan Submission Machine" SAMOA JOE and ULF HERMANN seeks revenge on "The Monster" ABYSS. Look for either or both of those matches to get completely out of control.
And the tag team division heats up with showdowns between UK sensations JONNY STORM and JODY FLEISCH and the ROTTWEILERS duo of HOMICIDE and RICKY REYES as well as SOUTHERN COMFORT and the brand new duo of "Classic" COLT CABANA and "The Pukka One" DARREN BURRIDGE. All four teams know that an announcement about the creation of a 1PW Tag Team championship is imminent and everyone wants to make sure they are at the head of the line when 1PW Officials pick what teams will vie for the titles.
Here are the complete line-ups for both shows as they stand today:
