MD 92/AS 67/AF 26 Card Preview

[Kermit]

Meltdown 92

Barbosa vs. Vega

These two sadistic superstars will meet inside the squared circle for the first time in singles competition. With the destruction of Ace Stevens behind him, Vega has been begging for tougher competition, and he'll get in the form of the brand new #1 contender for the WZCW World Heavyweight Championship, Barbosa.

Round 1: Blade vs. Wasabi Toyota

In a first round match of the Gold Rush Tournament, both Blade and Wasabi will try to rebound after falling victims to a triple threat. A win for either man will not only push them into the next round, but gain them massive momentum.

Round 1: Mister Alhazred vs. Grizzly Bob

In this first round encounter, Mister Alhazred will re-dawn the Power Glove as he takes on the second manliest man on the roster in the form of Grizzly Bob.

Amber Warren & ??? vs. Grand Mystique & David Whitman

Warren announced on the WZ Weekend show that she would be debuting a special tag team partner. The entire WZCW is curious as to who it will be. Meanwhile, Grand Mystique and David Whitman will bide their time after coming off a massive War Games victory as their stablemates, Westhoff and D.C., test the tournament waters. Who will be in TSA's cross-hairs next?

Round 1: Mikey Stormrage vs. Sam Smith

In this intense first round match-up, Mikey Stormrage will be coming off what was the most disappointing loss in his career. He'll meet face-to-face with the former 2-time Elite X Champion who has shed his old partner, Rush, and looks to strike gold.

Showtime vs. Mr. Baller

Mr. Baller returns to action and he'll go up against a juggernaut of an opponent in the form of the WZCW World Heavyweight Champion, Showtime. Showtime was successful in defeating both Callahan in Holmes in a grueling triple threat at KC V. Now, he'll look to carry his momentum in the match, all the while keeping a close eye on the ultimate inmate.

Ascension 67

Saboteur vs. Steven Holmes

A bipolar match-up if there ever was one. One man walked out of KC with gold, while the other did not. Now, these two off-setting superstars will tangle in an epic encounter as Saboteur copes with the loss of his partner, and Holmes copes with the loss of his gold.

Round 1: Ricky Runn vs. James Howard

A solid first round match as the former MMA fighter, Howard, takes on the second-city daredevil, Runn. Runn has recently developed a swaggish attitude and one has to wonder if Howard is going to have to go upside his head and slap the taste out of his mouth.

Justin Cooper vs. ???

The controversial Justin Cooper returns to action and he will be going up against a mystery opponent. Cooper holds victories over several top superstars such as Constantine and Chris K.O., but will this mystery opponent be too much for him in his returning match?

Drake Callahan vs. Sandy Desserts

Drake Callahan was inches away from world title gold at KC V, but now he finds himself face-to-face against Sandy Desserts. Desserts failed to put away Zeus and the controversial ending to their match left many scratching their heads. How will she respond and will she be fit to compete against the former world champion, Drake Callahan?

Round 1: Dr. Zeus vs. Matt Tastic

Dr. Zeus was left thirsty at KC V for Steven Kurtesy, but now he'll get to sink his teeth into Matt Tastic as a worthy substitute. Can Tastic, who is riding off a huge win over Bowen, carry his momentum and capitalize off of the distracted Zeus to score entry into the next round of the tournament? We'll just have to find out.

Celeste Crimson vs. Titus

Two huge superstars and two devastating losses. In the aftermath of Kingdom Come, these two mega stars will try to re-find their footing as they compete in the ring. What will the hero, Titus, next move be and how will Celeste handle her loss to Barbosa?

Aftershock 26

Chris K.O. & Dustin Hunter vs. S.H.I.T. & Jimmy Flynn

Both Chris and S.H.I.T. were successful in carrying the mid-card titles out of KC V. Now, they will square off in the ring in a +1 scenario. Lower card athletes Dustin Hunter and Jimmy Flynn will get to rub elbows with some top superstars in this tag team match-up.

Round 1: D.C. vs. Krypto

D.C. won TSA the War Games, but now he'll have an opportunity to win a shot at the WHC. In this first round, he'll take on the loveable alien, Krypto, who is coming off a tough loss to his nemesis, Mister Alhazred. Will D.C. continue is roll, or will Krypto come back with fire?

Isabel Stone vs. The Angel

Stone will get a chance to relax as she sims through the first round of the tournament. However, The Angel will hope to make a statement as he tries to knock off one of the favorites for the Gold Rush Tournament.

Round 1: The Beard vs. Mason Westhoff

We decided at WZ Weekend that Beard was the manliest man in KC, but will he be the #1 contender come Redemption? He'll have a long road ahead of him and it will start with the ruthless Westhoff, who displayed his strength by ending the career of Derek Jacobs in the War Games Match via a spear into a glass pod.

Contract Battle Royal: Joey Sexton vs. Theron Daggershield vs. Doctor Coberer vs. Bobby Adams vs. Fallout vs. Anthony Corvus

In a case of nostalgia, WZCW Management will conjure up the ol' Contract Battle Royal to kick off Aftershock. All of the new applicants for the fed will have a chance to showcase their skill and WZCW Management will be watching closely to see who has what it takes.
