It's "Redemption," One of the matches will feature former WCW superstar Dave Diamond, who was scheduled to wrestle T.A. Stanton for the ACW Heavyweight Championship at "New Beginnings." Diamond, however, was attacked by an unknown assiliant one week before the show, and looks to seek revenge on the man he suspects the strongest, T.A. Stanton. The ACW commissioner, however, has stated that due to safety concerns for his champion,... Diamond will be able to get ahold of Stanton, but only in a tag team match. It will be Dave Diamond & Velvet Jones against The "Lights" T.A. Stanton & The "New Age Thriller" Steve Stiles in a mega tag team match, where the ACW Heavyweight Championship will be on the line. So, Diamond or Jones could walk away with the ACW Heavyweight Championship. It's a must-win situation for Stanton.

Also, the main event will feature a Best Two out of Three Falls Match, between Thunder & Lightning and The Washington Bullets, with no DQ or countouts allowed. The ACW Commissioner has stated that no matter what, there must be a winner.

Women's tag team action as well, as Tiffany Roxx and Jessica Wetmore renew their rivarly. They each will bring tag team partners, as Tiffany Roxx brings her long time partner Rock-C in to form the Rocketts, to face Wetmore and her partner, Hailey Rage.

Ace Heffner made his return at "New Beginnings," and announced that he is bringing Tim "Lobo" Lowe in to help him beat Brandon Kage. The ACW Commissioner upped the stakes, announcing it as a No. 1 Contender's Match, to be fought under Street Fight rules.

NWA/ROH Star Corey Hollis made his ProSouth debut defeating Stinger Shawn
Seagle in our opening match.

"Future Classic" Tyler Gage showed why he is still All-Out Champion, by
making quick work of Jed Johnson. Gage continued the punishment of
Johnson, prompting "Epic" Grant Mitchell to make the save!

Next up was collumbine & "Epic" Grant Mitchell versus Drew "The Bull"
Scott and the returning Daniel Alexander! As collumbine and Drew brawled
on the outside, Daniel Alexander got a single serving of "Epic" Grant's
foot and was down for the three count.

At this point, Commissioner Terry Batey called our concession stand
worker, Kendall, into the ring. He gave her flowers that he said were sent
by a secret admirer.

Kyle Matthews vs "Do or Die" Chip Day ended in a No Contest when Mike
Posey, Corey Hollis, and Jimmy Rave hit the ring. Following this, Ace
Haven and Scott Spade cleared the ring with chairs! Commissioner Terry
Batey was furious and made an impromptu tag match right on the spot!

Mike Posey and Corey Hollis defeated Ace Haven & Scott Spade via
underhanded tactics! Jimmy Rave and Chip Day were ringside, however this
would be short-lived, as Rave was ejected for getting involved in the
action and Chip Day was assaulted to the back by an angry Kyle Matthews! A
fast-paced back and forth match was underway as the odds were even,
eventually a bloodied Ace Haven made the tag to Scott Spade, but Spade was
cheated out of the victory!

Post-match as the two teams brawled, HoFer Rick Freeman came to the ring
and leveled all the of Jimmy Rave Approved, except their "fearless"
leader, Jimmy Rave! Terry Batey returned once more with two HUGE
announcements. On Feb 11th, Jimmy Rave, Chip Day, Corey Hollis and Mike
Posey will do battle with Ace Haven, Kyle Matthews, Scott Spade and a
fourth partner! But wait, there's more! Terry Batey said he was in need of
a break, and that next week, Rick Freeman would be interim commissioner!

- from CWO

On Saturday night January 29, Championship Wrestlin Overload kicked off 2011 with a huge crowd of just over 150. The night strated off just as one would expect coming off the heels of the end of year controversy. CWO Owner KSL came to the ring with Chris Nelms, Tommy Lee & Kyle Hendrix to gloat about their win in War Games. However "The Bulldog" TW James, was not going to stand by and he came out to ask questions about why Tommy Lee had turned his back on him in the November 27th steel cage match. After Lee explained that he felt that he carried James and he was a waste of time, the 3 men attacked James until from the locker room came Roscoe Ray & Georgia Cowboy to even the odds. KSL's "Power Trip" then hit the high road.

The opening contest saw new comers Wild Child & Andy Anderson beat Junior & Damenchia in a tag team match, when Kyle Hendrix came out to get Junior's attention.
The action didnt stop there as the debuting Canadian sensation Shannon Dumass with partner Kris Viscious came out to challenge the Georgia Cowboy, who in the end walked away with a win over his Canadian opponent.

The third match of the evening was a triple threat elimination match, that saw Mid Georgia Heritage Champion take on James Powers and the deranged Jamie Holmes. In a classic wrestling match that saw tons of action and smash mouth brawling from these three, it was Roscoe Ray picking up the win and retaining his title.

After a short intermission, the action came back with a heated match between two former partners, TW James and Power Trip's newest member Tommy Lee. In the end it was KSL's interference who helped Lee pick up the win, however this fued is far from over, as those two men will face off again at Febuary 12th's My Bloody Valentine in Milledgeville Georgia.

The second title match of the evening saw Power Trip's Kyle Hendrix & a hired gun, Big Daddy Osborne, defend the CWO Tag Team Championships against the Irish Carbomb team of Neal McGuiness & Ash. Toward the end of the match Osborne walked out on his partner allowing the Irish Carbomb to steal the win & the championships!

The Main Event for the CWO World Heavyweight Championship, saw the champion Damien defend against Power Trip's "Ticking Time Bomb" Chris Nelms. These two men have fueded before and there was certainly no love lost. They once again fought all over the building and when Damien got the upper hand, KSL became involved once again trying to hand off his trusty tennis racket to Nelms, however the Georgia Cowboy was watching this match closely & was able to stop KSL's interference. Therefore Damien was able to pick up the win, and due to a prematch stipulation stating that if he won he would be allowed to choose his opponent & the match stipulations for Feb 12th.

The next event which is entitled "My Bloody Valentine" will take place on Saturday Feb 12, 2011 at the Centennial Center in Milledgeville Georgia will feature CWO Owner: KSL facing CWO World Champion: Damein in a "Tennis Racket on a Pole Match", in which the racket will be suspended above the ring and the first man to retreive it, will be allowed to use it. Also on the card, Chris Nelms will be taking on The Georgia Cowboy and fan favorite Junior will meet Kyle Hendrix! Adult tickets for this event are only $6, kids 6-12 $3 and kids 5 & under are always free. College students with a valid college id are admitted for $3!!

The ACW commissioner, however, has stated that due to safety concerns for his champion, Diamond will be able to get ahold of Stanton, but only in a tag team match. It will be Dave Diamond & Velvet Jones against The "Lights" T.A. Stanton & The "New Age Thriller" Steve Stiles in a mega tag team match, where the ACW Heavyweight Championship will be on the line. So, Diamond or Jones could walk away with the ACW Heavyweight Championship. It's a must-win situation for Stanton.
 
Also, the main event will feature a Best Two out of Three Falls Match, between Thunder & Lightning and The Washington Bullets, with no DQ or countouts allowed. The ACW Commissioner has stated that no matter what, there must be a winner.
 
Women's tag team action as well, as Tiffany Roxx and Jessica Wetmore renew their rivarly. They each will bring tag team partners, as Tiffany Roxx brings her long time partner Rock-C in to form the Rocketts, to face Wetmore and her partner, Hailey Rage.
 
Ace Heffner made his return at "New Beginnings," and announced that he is bringing Tim "Lobo" Lowe in to help him beat Brandon Kage. The ACW Commissioner upped the stakes, announcing it as a No. 1 Contender's Match, to be fought until Street Fight rules.
 
Plus...see the debut of Southern Discomfort, Junior, Big Wood the Lumberjack, Drive-By, The "Extreme Assassin" Josh Coulter, and more! Bell time is 7pm, doors open at 6:15. A more detailed schedule is coming soon. For more information, visit our new website, at www.appalachianchampionshipwrestling.webs.com.

Appalachian Championship Wrestling this Saturday, 01/29/11, in Ellijay, GA

- from ACW

ACW kicks off 2011 with "New Beginnings," January 29th at the Gilmer County Civic Center in Ellijay, GA, with a 7 pm bell time.

The main event was established at the end of "Rage in the Cage" on November 20th. After defeating Leatherface in a brutal Steel Cage Match to retain the ACW Heavyweight Championship, The "Loose Cannon" T.A. Stanton issued an open invitation to anyone in the building for a title match in January. The crowd erupted when former WCW superstar Dave Diamond stood up in the front row and accepted the challenge. How will "New School" fare against "Old School?"

Also, the fallout from Leatherface's loss in the Steel Cage, which stipulated that he wouldn't be eligible for an ACW Heavyweight Championship match for the next 12 months if he lost. How will the monster contend with an up and coming tag team of Jimmy Lee & The "Contract Killa" Chad Silva in a two-on-one handicap match?

Plus after the time limit ended a great match between Thunder & Lightning and The Washington Bullets, the two teams will meet again, with no time limit this time. Who will prevail when there MUST be a winner?

The "Extreme Assassin" Josh Coulter debuted at "Rage in the Cage," and made an instant impact, leaving his partners alone in a six-man tag. The fans sided with Coulter, angering his partners, especially Drive-By. Drive-By has issued a challenge to Coulter for a one-on-one match, will it happen?

A "Battle of the Bulls" as two 350+ pound men face off one-on-one, it's Big Wood the Lumberjack against The "Hellraiser" John Arden!

And...a special Women's match as Crystal Fire tangles with StarStruck.

Tickets are $10 for floor seats, $8 for bleacher seats, kids 5 and under are free. For more information, please call 706-669-2674. Call and reserve your seats early and save $2 off each ticket!

Come help ACW kick off 2011 with a bang!

Rampage Pro Wrestling's latest TV recap

Rampage Pro Wrestling's latest TV recap
 
Watch the latest RPW TV episode here
 
- from RPW

The January 22, 2011 edition of Rampage Pro Wrestling opened in the Commissioner's office. Michael Stevens and Drew Adler are seen enjoying The World According to Dutch, the new book from wrestling legend Dutch Mantell. Suddenly, Sal Rinauro entered and reclaimed his chair from Stevens. It seems Rinauro is the Commissioner once again. He asked them what matches they made for Rampage Reloaded, RPW's supercard at Johnny G's on January 29. When it's clear they have nothing, Rinauro immediately got to work. Before anything could be made, J-Rod entered the office and requested a shot at Shaun Banks at the RPW Heavyweight Title at Reloaded. Rinauro told J-Rod that Kyle Matthews has a title shot in the main event of next week's show. That means he cannot make a match for Reloaded when he doesn't know who the champ will be. But he did promise J-Rod he was very high on the list of consideration.

Your hosts are Bill Behrens & Ben Masters.

Frankie Valentine defeated Chip Day
The in-ring competition began this week with Frankie Valentine taking on Chip Day. Valentine has recovered from the brutal attack Jimmy Rave Approved put on him a few weeks ago. He is back and looking for revenge. He got his first chance this week with a match against Chip. Jimmy Rave came to ringside with Chip, but didn't last long. Chopping Valentine outside the ring got him ejected by referee Dustin Robinson yet again. Chip was left to fend for himself against Valentine. After nearly scoring a three-count and arguing with Robinson over it, Chip went up top for the double knees. Valentine saw it coming, however, and nailed Chip with a chestcracker on the way down for the win!

After the match, Rave returned to ringside to attack Valentine. His attack was brief, as Kyle Matthews ran in to save his former tag team partner. After Rave and Chip exited, Matthews revealed that he had chosen his granted match for Rampage Reloaded on January 29: a singles match against Jimmy Rave with Chip, Corey Hollis, and Mike Posey all banned from the building.

Back from the commercial break, Charlie Cash is inside the ring with the Cash Vault. Cash called out Sal Rinauro to have a conversation. Cash wanted to know why the Usual Suspects are getting a rematch against the Dark City Fight Club on Rampage Reloaded on January 29, but Killer Instinct don't get a shot. Cash made an offer to Rinauro: let Killer Instinct face the Suspects in the main event for a chance to face the Dark City Fight Club at Reloaded. Also, if the Suspects win, Mike Stratus & Jake Slater will no longer team together in RPW. Rinauro agrees and make the match, despite Killer Instinct not looking so thrilled with Cash's decision. Rinauro also announces that Pain will face Dr. Johnny Gayton at Reloaded as well.

The Rampage Rewind Exclusive shows us footage of J-Rod defeating Ace Haven.

Mr. Jones defeated Bobby Moore
This is a return bout from the December 25 episode of RPW. During that last singles encounter, Jones was jumped by the Cash Vault before he could finish off Moore. Charlie Cash accompanied Moore to ringside. Moore did an impressive job of grounding the big man, but was unable to finish him off. Moore resorted to some high impact maneuvers to try and finish off Jones. He attempted a cross body off the top rope, but the collision with Jones' sheer mass did enough damage to Moore to keep him from covering Jones immediately. When he finally sprawled backwards into Jones, Jones hooked him into a crucifix for the win!

Jones' victory was short-lived, as J.T. Smooth summoned Pain to ringside. Pain invaded the ring to apply the Asiatic spike to Jones. The Usual Suspects entered to run Pain off, but the damage had been done as blood began to spew from the mouth of Jones.

Bull Buchanan defeated Drew Adler
Bull Buchanan took on Drew Adler in his first singles match since returning to RPW. Buchanan is on a crash course to get his RPW Heavyweight Championship back from Shaun Banks. Adler may be running into Buchanan at the absolute wrong time (as if there is ever a right time to face Buchanan). Despite Adler's improvement in 2010, he was absolutely no match for Buchanan on this night. Buchanan leveled him with a lariat to take the victory. No doubt this match was a message to Banks.

The Usual Suspects defeated Killer Instinct
This week's main event was the match match earlier in the hour by Charlie Cash. The RPW Tag Team Champions, the Usual Suspects, taking on Killer Instinct. The titles are not on the line. The winner of this match will face the Dark City Fight Club for the NWA World Tag Team Championship at Rampage Reloaded on January 29. Mike Stratus and Jake Slater took the fight right to the Suspects, knowing what was on the line. They amped up the dirty tactics behind the referee's back. Eventually, Charlie Cash jumped up on the apron to distract the referee. While this was going on, Stratus put on a loaded glove and attempted to strike Murder One. M1 ducked and Stratus decked Slater with it. The Suspects hit Stratus with a double chokeslam to seal the deal and earn their shot against the Dark City Fight Club on January 29! Also, as per Cash's agreement, Stratus and Slater can no longer team together in RPW!

The "All Star" Jay Clinton vs Jed Johnson.
With a roll up victory and a hand full of tights, the All Star Jay Clinton
declares he is AWESOME as the crowd chants AWFUL.

D2daC vs the Epic Grant Mitchell
The Epic Grant Mitchell demonstrates why he is the #1 contender for the
ProSouth All Out Championship Belt.

ProSouth Ambassador announced.

Commissioner Batey asked charter Hall of Famer Rick Freeman to the ring to
present Rick with a one of a kind Hall of Fame Dog Tag and Ring for his
unwaivering loyalty and hard work.

As Commissioner Batey was commending Rick on his 38 years of wrestling and his public career
with various organizations, Jimmy Rave, Mike Posey, and Johnny Viper made their way to
the ring. Jimmy Rave insisted that he was there to make his presentation.
After announcing he'd noticed someone with "Jimmy Rave Approved"
credentials, he proceeded to offer Rick Freeman the "Jimmy Rave Approved"
shirt. Upon rudely pulling the mic from Rick several times, Jimmy Rave was
slapped by Rick Freeman. Mike Posey and Johnny Viper joined in and
viciously attacked Rick knocking him down where Rave joined in with kicks
and stomps. Ace Haven and Scott Spade stormed the ring making the save,
where Ace Haven challenged Mike Posey and Johnny Viper into the ring later
that night with he and Scott Spade. With deafening crowd approval,
Commissioner Batey announced the match.

ProSouth All Out Champion "Future Classic" Tyler Gage vs the Stinger Shawn
Seagle
After his win over Stinger Shawn Seagle, Future Classic Tyler Gage refused
to quit beating Seagle. With Seagle unable to defend himself, Epic Grant
Mitchell hit the ring to stop the beating and challenged Gage to defend
his belt at the Valentine's Day Massacre III on Friday, Feb 11th.

ProSouth Tag Team Champions Ace Haven & Scott Spade vs Mike Posey & Johnny
Viper (accompanied to the ring by Jimmy Rave)
After interfering in an already heated match, Jimmy Rave was ejected from
ringside by referee Jeremy Black. As mass confusion continued, Posey was
on the apron when he and Viper collided. Spade super kicks Viper and Ace
Haven hits the Ace Crusher and rolled up Johnny Viper for the win.  Jimmy
Rave returns to the ring and he and Mike Posey beat Johnny Viper and tell
him to never show up again.

Self Proclaimed ProSouth Champion Drew "the Bull" Scott vs ProSouth
Champion collumbine Title Match
In a vicious match that turns into a brawl outside the ring, both
participants are counted and DQ'd.   As this continues on for several
minutes, referee Jeremy Black tries to gain control. Drew Scott knocks
Jeremy into the steel framework of the ring rendering him unconscious.
Referee Earl Davidson is sent to regain order and ensure Jeremy's safety.
As he tries to separate the two combatants, collumbine lands an elbow to
his face. A third referee, Toby Romine and also got ko'd. The two fought
back into the ring where Drew got the belt with the intent to hit
collumbine. The lights went out and came back on with collumbine no where
to be found. Commissioner Batey came out and declared a No Count Out / No
DQ match scheduled for Valentine's Day Massacre III. Again the lights went
out. When the lights came back on, collumbine was in the ring and grabbed
the belt from Drew and escapes.

Stephen Platinum can be a prick!

Photobucket
 
That’s Why the Booker Is a Prick

- from Platinum Championship Wrestling's owner/promoter Stephen Platinum

I recently read a book by a wrestling booker – that is, the person who decides who wrestles whom and how a wrestling card is laid out – and in it the person in question said that if you do a great job as a booker, people give credit to the wrestlers, but if you are doing a bad job, people blame the booker.

That’s true enough. But it shouldn’t be any other way.

I look back on things that I booked when I first got the opportunity (back in 1997, for smaller indies in the Colorado area), the things I did once I started booking my own shows and had total control (in 2002 until 2005) and how I organize Platinum Championship Wrestling now, and I am stunned at how much I have changed.

People mark the improvement of wrestlers, note the changes in those that work in front of crowds or cameras for wrestling promotions. You can look at old footage of Shawn Michaels when he was part of the (Midnight) Rockers, during his run as the Heartbreak Kid, and since his comeback in 2002 and note the differences. You can debate about when he was at his best (personally I think the things he did during his final run were clearly the best.) For bookers (or creative, or writers, or whatever other silly labels we give to the “pencil” nowadays) we usually don’t note differences or see how those things change. People attach a style to someone, and then that person is simply that – Vince Russo is Satan, and never did anything well or came up with anything good. Or Paul Heyman is the best ever, and if TNA brought him in he’d turn them right around.

The truth is, and speaking only for myself, I’ve learned a great deal in the thirteen years I’ve been booking wrestling shows. It wasn’t until I had a couple of years in there to NOT book that I reached back and looked at the bookers I admired, looked at things I had booked with a truly critical eye, and, frankly, admitted that I had a long way to go that I really developed a workable style and a true philosophy.

I’m not going to go into depth about my personal theories and methods of booking – that can be for another time. I’m going to talk about the hard parts of the job – not because I want a pity party, or want wrestlers that currently wrestle for Platinum Championship Wrestling or may to have sympathy for me, but because there are aspects of being the booker that I find fascinating and continue to struggle with, and I imagine other bookers struggle as well.

Retracting Things You Said You Were Going to Do

I hate this. It’s part of a creative process – you have an idea, you start moving things in that direction, and then you decide to go a different way. Once I get an idea of, say, an angle, I start getting the process going, and that means often discussing things with the people involved. I’ll clear things with the wrestlers (something I know that not everyone does, but I do) and start looking at how to move things in the shows in that direction. However, often to the night of the show, things will change. I’ll decide based on crowd reaction, which wrestlers show up that night, and any other of a number of factors, that angles have to happen faster. Or slower. Or not happen at all. Or be altered significantly. And the hardest part is a conversation that starts with, “But you said…” I can feel the trust between me and the wrestler in question at jeopardy. The solution to this dilemma in wrestling has been setting up a hierarchy where bookers say something, and wrestlers are simply supposed to say okay and get it over. If that changes at the last minute, so what, that’s “the wrestler’s job.” Bookers, in essence, are set up to be pricks – not having compassion for the wrestler who now has to adjust what they were going to do, not question a decision they might not fully support, and simply, in effect, order a wrestler to do what the booker wants even though it’s the wrestler who’s integrity as a performer and actual physical well being is at stake. Many bookers are famously of the “my way or the highway” variety – most any Japanese booker of note, Vince McMahon Jr. (and senior, for that matter), and frankly, most others. It’s a system that favors being a prick as a booker, because you reduce the headaches and don’t have to take the time to justify.
 
Hotshotting

It’s very easy to look at a wrestling card and say “They are rushing this angle” or “I can’t believe they changed champions again.” For bookers, there’s a delicate game going on of keeping and audience happy and leaving them wanting more. It’s easy to say that, but hard to do. You want the crowds to be big. Then you want them to stay big. Then you want them to be thrilled and talk about your show to others. You want the wrestlers to be on a high as well. Also, as a creative person (which most bookers are) you often have ideas that you want to see played out…so you can get to the next idea. Yes, it’s a prick move to do a ton of angles and having them find fruition all the time. But that’s why the booker is often a prick, because they want the results of finishing angles and making big things happen.

Being the Bearer of Bad News

I rarely worked for a booker that really was direct with what he wanted out of talent. When I didn’t work for the “tell two people slightly different things, hoping they’ll work it out between themselves and not be mad at me” booker, I worked for “You wrestle him, he goes over clean” and walk away from you guy. Both of them are pricks in their own way. But it’s hard to tell someone something that they aren’t going to like. And most wrestlers don’t like to lose. Or they don’t like feeling that their primary purpose is to enhance someone else. Oh, wrestlers are good at saying the right thing, but wrestlers are human, and if they became pro wrestlers in the first place, it’s because to an extent they have a performer’s ego. It isn’t always easy to visualize the conflict you are going to have with a wrestler when you tell them what you want, so many bookers take one of the two prick-like actions above…the appeasement method, or the “my way or the highway” method.

Overprepared/Underprepared

Most shows that I wrestled on were booked on the fly…or certainly appeared that way. “You wrestle him, you guys are first.” “Maybe cut a promo after your match, and he comes out, and someone else comes out, and you have an impromptu tag match.” Run sheets are handwritten, if there is one at all. The other extreme is things written out and planned almost minute to minute, with the booker telling you exactly what he wants out of your match, how to structure it, how to begin and end it, and everything in between. One is the prick trait of laziness or not thinking the wrestlers are worth including in the big picture, the other is the prick trait of micromanaging.

In short:

Being a prick as a booker certainly makes the gig easier in the short term. The bad part is that you never really rally the wrestlers and people putting it on the line for your vision. You miss out on the wrestlers not only contributing ideas, but feeling a true part of something bigger. There are headaches that come from trying to be straight up, inclusive and balanced about things – Roland Alexander between trips to the Golden Corral famously said in Beyond the Mat that you have to be a prick because the wrestlers’ egos are such that they’ll run all over you. And to an extent I can see where he’s coming from. Mostly because he is fat and the ground shaking from his movement quivers the water in my plastic cup sitting on the dashboard of my touring safari SUV. But in the end, the much harder road is to establish respect with the wrestlers and yourself. Wrestling breeds a whole lying culture. It’s always been that way. But if wrestling is truly going to make strides forward, there needs to be more people involved in the business who are decent human beings (I think immediately of Cary Silkin, not a booker but someone I have never heard anything but great things about) that have a heart, but also a mind to get things done in the long term best way possible. Booking means you’ll have to change your mind. But don’t be a prick – go through the trouble of explaining to the people involved why. Booking means that you’ll have to pull the trigger on advancing an angle at the proper time – just don’t be a prick and sacrifice the long term, sustained success for a short term effect. You’ll have to deliver information that may not be received favorably – but don’t be a prick and lie or intimidate to get your way, that’s disrespectful. And you will have moments when you aren’t as prepared as you could have been, or feel the need to have every detail go according to your vision – but don’t be a prick, realize that others can and should contribute, and deserve your work in preparing and leading them as well in a proper manner.

I ain’t perfect…if anything, all I’ve learned is that I have a long way to go. But I am fortunate to have a crew that works for the overall card, doing their utmost to make it the best match, card, and promotion it can be. And even as I’ve calmed down, they’ll tell you down to a man or a woman…I can be a prick.

RPW Heavyweight Championship Fatal Four-Way Match
Cru Jones vs. Bull Buchanan vs. J-Rod vs. Shaun Banks ©
On January 15, Shaun Banks defended the RPW Heavyweight Title against Kyle Matthews. The match totally melted down into chaos as tons of men ended up brawling. Commissioner Sal Rinauro entered to make an announcement, stopping the brawl. He announced that at Rampage Reloaded, Banks will defend the title in a Fatal Four-Way against Bull Buchanan, J-Rod, and his own partner Cru Jones. Banks has somehow been able to hold on to the title for the last seven months after essentially stealing it from Buchanan. Buchanan wants his belt back. J-Rod would love to become RPW Heavyweight Champion for the first time. What will Cru do when faced with a potential decision to save his partner or win the title for himself? With 75% mathematical odds of a new champion being crowned, things certainly do not favor Banks. What will happen? Find out LIVE, January 29!

Jimmy Rave vs. Kyle Matthews
A match that has been nearly a half-year in the making will finally happen LIVE, January 29 with no chance to back out now. Everyone knows the story of how Jimmy Rave took Kyle Matthews under his wing during a brutal losing streak earlier in the year. Matthews' success gave birth to an ever-expanding jealousy within Rave, culminating in Rave brutally turning on Matthews during a match against Shaun Banks earlier in the summer. Rave has spent the next few months ducking and avoiding Matthews at every turn. On January 29, Rave has no way out. As the sole survivor of the 10-man elimination tag team match on December 16, Matthews received the right to sanction any type of match at any event he chose against any opponent. He has selected his match to be against Rave at Rampage Reloaded. As an added bonus, Chip Day, Corey Hollis, and Mike Posey will be forced to leave the building after their contest earlier in the night, assuring that they cannot interfere. On January 29, Matthews finally gets Rave!

NWA World Tag Team Championship
The Usual Suspects vs. The Dark City Fight Club ©
On December 4, fans at Johnny G's and the fans around the country who watch RPW on our web site were treated to one of the best matches in Georgia as the Dark City Fight Club defended the NWA World Tag Team Title against RPW's Tag Team Champions, the Usual Suspects. The NWA World Tag Team Champions fought Georgia Wrestling History's 2010 Tag Team of the Year to a stellar time-limit draw, neither team able to finish off the other. But however, LIVE, January 29, these two teams will get another chance to fight to a finish. Can Kory Chavis & Jon Davis hold on to the gold? Or will A.J. Steele & Murder One walk out with two championships? Find out on January 29 which one of these teams will leave Warner Robins, GA with one of the most prestigious championships in the history of professional wrestling!

RPW Television Championship – No Countout, No Disqualification, No Time-Limit
Adrian Hawkins vs. Jeremy Vain ©
Another issue that has been simmering for many months in RPW is the problems between Jeremy Vain and Adrian Hawkins. The two men formed a tag team in the summer with aspirations of becoming RPW Tag Team Champions. But Jeremy Vain went behind his partner's back and petitioned for a shot at the Television Title. He was able to exploit a knee injury J-Rod attempted to compete through. J-Rod was unable to perform up to his level and Vain easily took the title. The championship caused Vain's already gigantic ego to totally fly out of control to the point where he began abusing Hawkins. Hawkins quickly made it clear he was not going to take it and set his sights on taking the title from his former partner. Through months of Vain escaping via running away, getting himself disqualified, and time limit draws, Hawkins' anger only intensified. After Vain's latest stunt on January 15 where he spit in referee Dustin Robinson's face and made it look like Hawkins hit him with the belt, Commissioner Sal Rinauro had enough. After Robinson wrongly disqualified Hawkins, he announced that LIVE, January 29 at Rampage Reloaded, Hawkins would get another chance at Vain. But this time, there will be no countouts, disqualification, or time limits! An undisputed champion will be crowned. Will Vain prove his ego or will Hawkins finally take the gold?

Pain vs. Dr. Johnny Gayton
When Dr. Johnny Gayton finished off Big Bank Barfield at Doctoberfest, he did not get a lot of time to enjoy his ultimate victory. Before Dr. Gayton could even exit the cage that contained Barfield's battered and bruised body, an old, familiar foe sauntered through the curtain to remind him that he was back: Charlie Cash. When Cash's scheme with Rob Adonis to destroy RPW completely fell apart, both Adonis and Cash bolted the scene. Almost immediately after Cash left, J.T. Smooth showed up scouting talent for months. Smooth revealed that he was keeping an eye on RPW while Cash allowed things to defuse. While Adonis is still in seclusion where ever he is, but Cash has returned. He also revealed himself to be the one who controls a mysterious monster by the name of Pain. While Pain's stalkings of RPW's ring announcer Miss Allie have been, simply put, very weird, the devastation he has unleashed in the ring with his Asiatic spike has been nothing short of unstoppable. Dr. Gayton has been on a crusade to end Pain's reign of terror upon RPW and LIVE, January 29, he will get that chance as he goes one-on-one with Pain. Considering that Pain has drawn blood before with his spike and Cash's presence at ringside, Dr. Gayton is going into this contest as a supreme underdog. However, Dr. Gayton has plenty of experience as the underdog and has proven he can shock the world with his ability. On January 29, Dr. Gayton will get the chance to shock the wrestling world yet again.

Chip Day, Corey Hollis, and Mike Posey vs. Frankie Valentine, Michael Stevens, and Drew Adler
Jimmy Rave's Approved has not been making friends in RPW as of late. Michael Stevens and Drew Adler have found themselves at the brunt of the Jimmy Rave's messages they've been sending to Kyle Matthews. But they are ready to fight back. Frankie Valentine's big return to RPW on December 16 was ruined by Rave and his goons. They brutally attacked Valentine to the point where he was unable to participate on Matthews' team in the 10-man tag team elimination. Valentine is also looking for revenge. No matter the outcome, Day, Hollis, and Posey will be escorted out of Johnny G's as per Matthews' request after the match. Can Rave's Approved make a statement before their leader finally faces Matthews or can Valentine, Stevens, and Adler start what Matthews might finish? Find out LIVE, January 29!
