Legends Match:
JERRY "THE KING" LAWLER vs. KAMALA, THE UGANDAN GIANT
Jerry "The King" Lawler, former 27 time USWA champion, former AWA
World Champion, and current WWE Raw color commentator will be opposed
by a rival he is no stranger to: "The Ugandan Giant" Kamala! The
rivalry between these two men actually started approximately 25 years
ago in the Memphis territory, and bad blood continues between them to
this day. Lawler and Kamala even squared off in an IWC ring in the
past, in July 2002, but that was not enough to settle their grudge
either. Will December 3 bring conclusion to a rivalry with nearly
three decades of hatred behind it?
SOUTHERN COMFORT (Tracy Smothers & Chris Hamrick) vs. TEAM EXTREME
(Tommy Dreamer & The Sandman)
"The Innovator of Violence" Tommy Dreamer and "The Hardcore Icon" The
Sandman have been allies for many many years, of course dating back to
their legendary days in ECW, and this is the first time they have
teamed since the "One Night Stand" reunion PPV this past June. This is
an extremely rare opportunity to see Tommy Dreamer compete inside the
squared circle, so don't miss out on your chance! Sadly, we have to
inform you that Tracy Smothers has been having health issues as of
late, and his attendance at Winter Bash 2005 is unsure as of now. We
will keep you updated on this situation as we hear information on it.
Legends Match:
DOMINIC DENUCCI vs. LORD ZOLTAN
When it comes to professional wrestling in this region, few if any
individuals are more well-respected than Denucci and Zoltan. His
Lordship has proven himself to be one of professional wrestling's
timeless wonders, still going strong and in incredible shape for a man
who's spent thirty years in wrestling rings around the world.
Meanwhile Denucci is perhaps best remembered as one of the most
well-known instructors in recent memory, having trained the likes of
Mick Foley, "The Franchise" Shane Douglas, among many others. Denucci
recently came out of retirement at the WrestleReunion event this past
August, taking on the legendary Ivan Koloff, and on December 3,
Denucci steps through the ropes once again in this battle of timeless
classics.
ICW/ICWA Tex-Arkana Television Title Match:
"SWEET N SOUR" LARRY SWEENEY vs. "THE NEW FACE" JASON GORY
Since his debut in IWC, "Sweet N Sour" Larry Sweeney has had a thorn
in his side by the name of Jason Gory. "The New Face" defeated Sweeney
in his debut to win the ICW/ICWA Tex-Arkana Television Title of
sketchy origin, only to lose it during intermission due to Sweeney
claiming 24/7 rules. Then at Newville Knockout, Gory and Sweeney had a
rematch that Sweeney won by holding the tights. Afterwards, Chris
Maverick rolled up Sweeney as he was celebrating to win the title.
Then, Gory became a two-time champion by hitting Maverick with the QAS
on the floor. But, before he could savor his second title reign,
Sweeney nailed Gory from behind with the belt and pinned him. Now,
Gory gets his official rematch for the title in Oil City!
Eight-Man Tag:
"WONDERMAN" GLENN SPECTRE & THE GAMBINO BROTHERS MOVING COMPANY
(Mickey Gambino, Marshall Gambino, & Jimmy Demarco) vs. SHIRLEY DOE,
SEBASTIAN DARK, HENTAI, & SOLDIER
The Unholy Alliance of Doe, Dark, & HENTAI will stop at nothing until
IWC has been torn down. With the inclusion of IWC World Heavyweight
Champion Shirley Doe into the Alliance, Dark & HENTAI have had the
advantage of breaking the company down from the inside out. But, the
Gambino Brothers Moving Company and "Wonderman" Glenn Spectre have
stepped up as the defenders of IWC. Having built their names and
reputations in this company, they wont let these 3 men have their way
and destroy their company. The inclusion of IWC International Champion
Soldier has Spectre, the Gambinos, and IWC officials all baffled. Have
Doe, Dark, & HENTAI scored another coup in the company?
JON BOLEN vs J-ROCC
As Bubba the Bulldog beat down Jason Cage with a roll of quarters, Jon
Bolen could stand by no more. He hit the ring to save his fellow
newcomer and fend off his foe in IWC since his debut. But, as Bubba
issued yet another challenge to Bolen, the "Big Daddy of Destruction"
J-Rocc attacked Bolen from behind. Bubba proceeded to reveal J-Rocc as
his newest protege. J-Rocc refused to enter the Pittsburgh area for
Showdown in Utown 4, due to "Cleveland Browns-related issues", and
Bolen didn't get a chance to extract his revenge. But, instead of a
tag match, now Bolen gets J-Rocc one-on-one!
MINEO FUJITA vs. "BALLS HOT" TROY LORDS
Mineo Fujita made quite an impressive debut in IWC. At International
Incident, he pinned IWC's Newcomer of the Year for 2004, Jason Gory.
Now, he must face a man on quite a hot streak as of late, "Balls Hot"
Troy Lords. Lords has defeated J-Rocc, Shiima Xion, and Sebastian Dark
at the last 3 IWC events. Many have pegged him as the most improved
IWC star in the past year. Now, he goes up against international
competition. Should Lords score a victory against Fujita, his stock in
IWC will no doubt continue to rise to the stratosphere!
SHIIMA XION vs. JASON CAGE
Shiima Xion is so dilluted in his mind that he thinks he is the real
IWC Newcomer of the Year for 2004 because he is the man who walked out
of the ring on the night of No Excuses after he was pinned by Jason
Gory. Now that talk on the IWC Message Board has come up of "Hot
Property" Jason Cage being named IWC's Newcomer of the Year for 2005,
Xion wants a shot at him. With his cocky & confident (and spoiled)
model attitude, Xion wants to be the only "Newcomer of the Year" on
people's minds... even if he really isn't!
THE PATRIOT vs. KING KAHLUA
The Patriot and King Kahlua brought their long-time feud to IWC on the
weekend of November 19th and 20th. At Showdown in Utown 4, The Patriot
was able to roll up Kahlua for the pinfall. Then, at Newville
Knockout, he went 2-0 as he and King Kong Bundy defeated Kahlua and
Mean Mark Mest. Kahlua is now out for revenge, and wants to humiliate
the Patriot and will stop at nothing in his quest to do so!
