New England Championship Wrestling (NECW) returns to live action at the Framingham Civic League, 214 Concord Street in Downtown Framingham on Saturday night, June 10th with a bell time of 7:30 PM.  The event is part of NECW’s SUBMISSION: IMPOSSIBLE Tour and features some very heated match-ups.
 
In the main event, NECW Heavyweight Champion, Framingham’s own “Hurricane” John Walters teams up for the first time with the PWF Mayhem Heavyweight Champion, “The Human Nightmare” Evans Siks, to battle the three time former NECW Tag Team Champions, Sabotage (D.C. Dillinger & “Die Hard” Eddie Edwards) managed by “The Mouthpiece of the East” Sean Gorman.  Last month Edwards and Dillinger collided in single matches with the champions resulting in a wild night of action.  On Saturday night, June 10, it will be all about retribution and it should be another heated battle.
 
PWF Mayhem Tag Team Champion, The Canadian Superstars (J-Busta & Dave Cole, managed by Brian Cairo) will defend their titles against one of the top up and coming teams in NECW, Billy King & Mike Lynch, better known as The Wild Boys.  The skateboarding duo have – literally and figuratively – been on a roll lately with some high profile victories.  Their chance to wear the gold will take place in Framingham.
 
In another tag team grudge match, NECW Television Champion, “Big Guns” Frankie Arion returns to the Civic League teaming up with the sensational R.I.O.T. (Revolution In Our Tme), Kellan Thomas to do battle with PWF Mayhem Junior Heavyweight Champion, “The Talent” T.J. Richter and his partner, Scott Reed.
 
Former fan favorites, RAVE have gone their separate ways as a tag team, now the former partners have become bitter enemies.  The next chapter in this feud will be written on Saturday night, June 10 as “The Exotic” Kristian Frost, managed by “The Voice” T.J. Wyld, collides with Zack Static.
 
In other bouts, former NECW Tag Team Champion, “Straight Edge” Brian Fury takes on newcomer Kofi Kingston.  Also appearing in action will be Max Bauer, WWW star, Lexus and more.
 
Tickets for NECW’s SUBMISSION: IMPOSSIBLE are $15 for adults and $10 for kids under 12, students with a valid ID and senior citizens.  Advance tickets can be purchased at all Strawberries locations, at Andrea’s Pizza, 847 Edgel Road in Framingham and online at www.NECWwrestling.com.
 
In what is already shaping up to be a blockbuster event, NECW presents the 3rd annual IRON 8 Championship Tournament on Friday night, June 23 at the National Guard Armory, 1000 Hancock Street in Quincy, MA.
 
This year's IRON 8 will differ from previous years in that the entire tournament will take place in a single night.  Eight stars will face each other in four singles matches, with the winners going on to the final, which is a four way, 45 minute Ironman match.  The man who scores the most pinfalls or submissions in 45 minutes will be the 3rd ever, IRON 8 Champion.
 
NECW President, Sheldon Goldberg added, "There will be 4 contestants from the current roster and 4 invitational contestants who may be from inside or outside NECW.  The current champions may not compete in the tournament.  So our fans can look forward to seeing some exciting new faces along with the up and coming stars of NECW."
 
The first three participants have already been announced:
 
Antonio "The Promise" Thomas:  Former WWE star and former NECW Tag Team Champion
The R.I.O.T., Kellan Thomas:  #1 Contender to the PWF Mayhem Junior Heavyweight Championship
Osamu Nishimura:  Formerly with New Japan Pro Wrestling, a two time IWGP Tag Team Champion
Today, NECW officials announced the next two participants:
 
Jason Blade:  Former PWF Mayhem Heavyweight Champion
"The Anarchist" Doug Williams:  Multi-time British Heavyweight Champion, former Pro Wrestling NOAH GHC Tag Team Champion, former Ring of Honor Pure Wrestling Champion
NECW President, Sheldon Goldberg said, "We are pleased to welcome back Doug Williams, who has appeared in NECW numerous times dating back to his American debut in September 2000.  There is a "catch" to Mr. Williams' appearance and I will have more details on that in the next week."
 
More IRON 8 participants will be announced next week.
 
Tickets for NECW's 3rd Annual IRON 8 Championship are on sale now at all Strawberries locations and online at www.NECWwrestling.com.
 
PRO WRESTLING UNPLUGGED is gearing up for PWU’s June return to action with
two exciting events and a seminar by featured guest, 2 COLD SCORPIO.


First, on Friday, June 23, PWU returns to the ECW Arena/New Alhamba Sports
and Entertainment Center http://www.newalhambra.com at Ritner and Swanson Streets for “EXIT SANDMAN” in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania with a 7pm belltime.

Announced by General Manager JOHN HOUSE at ‘THE CRAZY EIGHT’, The SANDMAN
looks to put his grudge with “Mr. Unbreakable” JOHNNY “Angel” KASHMERE to an
end inside the confines of a STEEL CAGE!

In their series of grudge matches, we’ve seen Kashmere try every trick in
the book, from losing his marble (dumping a bucket of marbles in the ring)
to ‘tatering (emptying a sack of potatoes) Sandman, and most importantly,
using his associates TOD GORDON and AMY LEE to gain unfair advantages.

At ‘The Crazy Eight’, Kashmere and Sandman faced off in a SINGAPORE CANE ON
A POLE MATCH.  Sandman, with Francine, attempted to gain back Sandman’s
Singapore cane from Kashmere after “Tod-man” Tod Gordon stole it after
Kashmere’s encounter with Sandman in April.    This time, with Gordon using
Lee as a stepping stone, he reached the Singapore first, giving it to Johnny
Kashmere for the win.

As General Manager House put it, June’s steel cage match will keep any
outside interference away from the action, particularly from “Tod-Man”
Gordon and Amy Lee, who have been instrumental in Kashmere’s previous
victories against The Sandman.

To sweeten the prize, if Sandman pulls off the victory, he gets five minutes
inside the cage with Tod Gordon.

Also announced by General Manager House, on the heels of Christopher
Daniels, Homicide, and Ultimo Dragon, another wrestling great returns from
regular appearances in Japan and Germany as former ECW World TV and ECW and
WCW World Tag champion 2 COLD SCORPIO makes his return to the ECW Arena to
vie for the only title Scorpio feels is prestigious enough to make his way
back to the United States…the PWU World Heavyweight Title and will face
champion TRENT ACID.

Tickets are available at http://www.wantickets.com/Function/event/eventdetail.asp?e_id=18892 or by calling 1-866-WANTIXX.

Then, on Sunday, June 25, PWU/XFC hosts a training seminar with guest
trainer, 2 Cold Scorpio at the ECW Arena.  To sign up, e-mail [email protected].

PWU makes their way on Wednesday, June 28 to start off the summer “HOT
STREAK” series with Take One at Cavanaugh’s River Deck http://www.cavanaughsriverdeck.com  at 417 North Columbus Boulevard in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania with a 9 pm belltime. 
Much more will be announced soon for our exciting June events.
 
Eastern Wrestling Alliance
June 24th
1pm @ JD Byriders
8   8th  Avenue   in Glen Burnie
FREE FAN APPRECIATION EVENT

Already announced:  King Kong Bundy vs The Patriot

Just signed:
The final 4 competitors in the EWA Heavyweight title tournament will meet in a fatal 4 way, every man for himself, tag match.  Rules are simply that we will start with two wrestlers, with the other two wrestlers on the outside, much like a tag team match.  With this match though, you can tag anyone you wish.  The men competing in this match are:
Representing CZW:  6'4"  300 lb   DJ Hyde
Representing GBW:  6'2"  Core
From EWA and representing the Christian Academy are:  6'5" 240 pound Eagle  and the Crowl Jewel of the Christian Academy, Champ Champagne.

Will Champagne and Eagle work together as members of the Christian Academy to soften up their opponents for later in the evening or will they see the EWA Heavyweight title as the top prize in this state and forget about any allegiances?   Will DJ Hyde storm through the competition en route to quick victories later in the evening to become the new champion?  Will the "Badass from Berlin" Core let the other 3 destroy each other and coast his way to victory that night in the EWA Arena and take the EWA title back to Ground Breaking Wrestling with him?  The only way to find out is to come out to EWA "FAN APPRECIATION" FREE event at JD Byriders in Glen Burnie on June 24th with a 1pm belltime.

Later that evening:
7:30pm belltime
"A NEW BEGINNING"
Tickets are $10
EWA Arena
1510 Country Ridge Lane
Essex, MD 21221

Semifinals matches announced in the EWA Heavyweight title tournament:
Eagle vs Core
DJ Hyde vs Champ Champagne

The winners of those 2 matches will meet later in the evening to crown a new EWA Heavyweight Champion.

The theme of this event is "A NEW BEGINNING".  Crowning a new heavyweight champion will start EWA down a new path.  With every new beginning, there also comes an end.  This night will bring an end to a long brewing feud in Eastern Wrestling Alliance.

FORMER TAG TEAM PARTNERS COLLIDE

XTreme Pandemonium were bound for EWA Tag Team gold in 2005 when injuries and some say jealousy broke the tag team up.  After months of attacks by both members, we will finally end this feud between two men who at times seemed like brothers.  Apollo Cruz vs Buster Maccabi will take place on June 24th to end this feud once and for all.

Bruce Chan has petitioned the EWA offices for a title shot.  With Bruce being knocked out of the heavyweight title tournament decisively by DJ Hyde, the EWA office has decided to grant him a tag team title shot vs EWA Champions THE CLUB.  Bruce Chan has until the end of this week to find a partner or else he will forfeit his title opportunity.

Eastern Wrestling Alliance and The Bruiser have ran into some problems with the Maryland State Athletic Commission after Bruisers actions last month.  Bruiser stormed through the front door of the EWA Arena, manhandled security and laid claim as the true measuring stick in Maryland wrestling and voiced his displeasure with not being granted a slot in the EWA Heavyweight Title tournament.  EWA was trying to work with Bruiser to come to an official agreement, but the MSAC is upset with Bruiser getting too close to the crowd at ringside and has suggested suspending him for a month.  Bruiser has stated that he will be in attendance as 'a fan' at the FREE EWA event and has even gone so far as to purchase a ticket to the night show at the EWA Arena, just in case the MSAC wont let him wrestle.

Also announced for the night show at the EWA Arena

Goldthumb vs Chris Nightmare

For more information on either event, please call the FREE EWA Hotline at 410-234-9720  or email  [email protected]
