As of right now, we have learned that four more participants have been announced to the battle royal. Newcomers Everest, Arch Angel, and the boys of Northern Lights (edit: 9PM) and Aaron Craig* and (edit: July 21st, 11:15PM newest WZCW supestar Ben Legend have all seen Chuck Myles about doing double duty and participating in the battle royal on July 30th.
"We have four very enthusiastic individuals who want to succeed in WZCW, and all four of them are willing to wrestle two matches in one night on July 30th, which is very noble and loyal of them. It should make for an interesting match."
Speaking of Everest and Arch Angel, their opponent in their first match at Meltdown, Mohammed Hasheem, is said to be none too pleased about being in the match, and is threatening to no show. Chuck Myles was said to have ordered him to participate before Hasheem steamed out of Myles's office. Rumor has it that a final decision will be made on the show July 30th, however Myles has refused to allow Hasheem to participate in the battle royal.
Several WZCW wrestlers not included in the battle royal are said to be very upset of being looked over. Chemical Blue and Joe T were on the outs with the company, and have told others backstage that they were considering staying when they heard about the Battle Royal, but that quickly faded when their names were not announced and Chuck Myles refused to add them to the pay-per-view.
Apparently, their release papers are in the process of being put together, and both individuals will have to be present at the July 30th edition of Meltdown. It is also said that Chuck Myles is potentially rethinking his decision of not adding them to the pay-per-view, and might actually do something with them at the show.
Another individual that was looked over in battle Royal selection is Titus, and he is also said to be upset, but not to the point of quitting. Rumor has it that he was injured in what ended up being a handicap match with Sex & Violence, and Chuck Myles made the decision not to add him to the main event for fear of aggravating the injury, although Titus claims he'll be ready on July 30th. More on this story as it develops.
Stay tuned to WZCW.com for further updates on the Battle Royal as they develop, and a huge preview we have in store for the show coming next week.
*Aaron Craig will be added to the battle royal on the condition that he loses his Qualifier match.
