Scheduled for this week...

Match TO EARN A TITLE SHOT: Johnny Gargano vs. All 3 Members of Sex Appeal
PRIME Champion "Zombie Princess" Jimmy Jacobs seems all too willing to offer Johnny Gargano a PRIME Championship opportunity at Wrestlelution 5, and it's clear why - Jacobs wants to erase Gargano's legacy as the franchise player of PRIME by embarrassing him at the event Gargano stole the show at every year - Wrestlelution. But before "The Whole Shabang" can get back to center stage, he must find a way to defeat all three members of Sex Appeal - Bobby Shields, Nicki Valentino, and Bobby Beverly. Sex Appeal has had an amazing win-loss record as of late with the only downside seeming to be a slump that Beverly has fallen into. Can the threesome carry out Jacobs' mission so Jimmy won't have to soil his hands at Wrestlelution, or can Gargano beat the odds? And what involvement will Jimmy Jacobs himself, who is scheduled to provide ringside commentary with Joe Dombrowski, have on the proceedings?

Zach Gowen (w/Gregory Iron) vs. "Demonic Disciple" Kirst
One-legged superstar Zach Gowen returns to PRIME to fight for the honor of a fallen friend - "Handicapped Hero" and fellow inspiration Gregory Iron. Greg was knocked unconscious and concussed following a powerbomb from Kirst during a tag match, an injury Greg has not yet been medically cleared from. As a result, Zach was glad to take up the fight for his friend and attempt retribution. Greg has gone on record as saying he idolized Zach as a young 16 year old fan, and credits watching Zach as his inspiration to defy the odds and become a wrestler. Can Kirst add another victim to the DWS hit-list that has already claimed so many? Or can Zach keep Greg out of harms way and score a big victory, professionally and personally, for himself in the process?

"Big Bear" Benjamin Boone (w/N8 Mattson) vs. "Hot Commodity" Matt Mason
After several months of attempting to re-kindle a long-dead friendship with the man now known as Krimson, Matt Mason is finally focused on his own in-ring career and taking on some of the best PRIME has to offer. Ben Boone is known for one of the most vicious personalities and impressive win streaks in company history, but will that, and rumors of an expanding Sons of Michigan, be enough to stop the undefeated Mason?

PLUS: We hear comments from Rhino & Jason Bane just weeks away from their epic clash set for August 19 at Wrestlelution 5 and much more!

PRIME Wrestling: See how Zach Gowen vs. Gregory Iron; and Jimmy Jacobs vs. Johnny Gargano were made for Wrestlelution 5 on August 19

This past week's episode of PRIME Wrestling TV on SportsTime Ohio was extremely eventful. Here are two key clips that are setting the stage for our iPPV, Wrestlelution 5: An Enduring Spirit, set for Sunday afternoon, August 19 at 3pm from the Jacobs Pavilion in Cleveland, Ohio.

ZACH GOWEN BETRAYS GREGORY IRON
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e11NEeWRJ9c

When Gregory Iron was 16 years old, he watched on television as Zach Gowen defied every odd in the book and became a globally-renowned superstar on WWE TV. Seeing Zach achieve his dream in spite of losing a leg to cancer at age 8 served to motivate Greg to overcome his own physical limitations, namely cerebral palsy. Three years later, Greg was training to become a professional wrestler himself, with Zach's story in the back of his mind all the while.

When Greg became the victim of three-on-one attacks at the hands of the Dead Wrestling Society, and his former partner had his career ended by the group, Greg could think of only one man to call on for help... his hero & idol, Zach Gowen. When DWS member Kirst injured Greg, putting him on the shelf with a severe concussion, Zach volunteered to take up the fight for his fallen friend.

However, towards the end of this contest, emotions ran rampant, frustrations showed themselves, and we witnessed a betrayal that we never thought we would see, leading to a match we never expected to be made.

"One Legged Wonder" Zach Gowen vs. "Handicapped Hero" Gregory Iron - Sunday, August 19 at 3pm from the Jacobs Pavilion in Cleveland, Ohio and live on internet Pay-Per-View!

JOHNNY GARGANO QUALIFIES FOR JIMMY JACOBS TITLE SHOT; BOBBY BEVERLY STANDS UP TO SEX APPEAL
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=asQ4JGxVBsA

Last year, Bobby Beverly recruited Jimmy Jacobs, during Jimmy's undercover assaults under a ski mask on Johnny Gargano, because Bobby felt Jimmy could fix the infighting in Sex Appeal and help them get to the next level - to help them own the Gargano's of the world, just like Jacobs was doing. After sending each Sex Appeal member away for a month on a "spiritual journey", it seemed the group was better than ever.

However, as time went on, Jacobs began to demean and belittle Beverly. After Beverly narrowly lost competitive matches to men like Matt Cross and Bane, Jacobs lost faith in the former TV & Tag Champion, and relegated him to second-fiddle, taking orders and commends from Nicki Valentino and especially Bobby Shields. Beverly's career may have hit a new low when he was relegated to fetching Shields' haircut supplies, as Shields began his crusade to humiliate all who opposed him.

Recently, in a 3-on-1 battle pitting all members of Sex Appeal against Johnny Gargano, Gargano had a chance to win a shot at PRIME Champion Jimmy Jacobs at Wrestlelution 5 if he could find a way to win the match. With Jacobs watching on from ringside at commentary, Gargano found himself an unlikely ally, and Bobby Beverly found himself newly independent.

PRIME Champion Jimmy Jacobs defends his title against Johnny Gargano on Sunday, August 19 at 3pm from the Jacobs Pavilion in Cleveland, OH, available worldwide on internet Pay-Per-View.
