Lava Beds National Monument, CA – It’s hard to believe that it’s only been two years since the debut of Pro Wrestling Guerrilla (http://www.prowrestlingguerrilla.com,) because man, it feels like this is our bicentennial anniversary. Looking back on the rich, 200 year history of PWG, it’s tough to imagine where we’d be without Eli Whitney‘s two reigns as PWG Champion, orFrankie Kazarian‘s world renowned Cotton Gin. It’s also difficult to think about what could possibly be done to celebrate an organization which has left such an indelible impression on the planet over the last two centuries, whether a large parade and fireworks event would be appropriate, or to just stick with the horse that brung us, and celebrate with two nights of incredible wrestling. Granted, we won’t be able to relive the the famous battles from the 1890’s between George Washington Carver and “Technical Phrenologist” Cassius Ryan (Great-Great-Grandfather of “Technical Wizard” Joey Ryan,) but we promise fans will not be disappointed with what we have in store.On Night 1 of “The 2nd Annual PWG Bicentennial Birthday Extravaganza,” AJ Styles will defend his PWG Championship against the dreaded mystery opponent, a man who has faced and sometimes beaten champions from around the world. Now he steps up to the plate against “The Phenomenal One,” looking to score a huge victory over the former NWA Heavyweight Champion and the current PWG Champion!
After wining the number one contenders match at “Guitarmageddon!,” the Aerial Express’ (Quicksilver & Scorpio Sky) celebration was cut short when PWG Tag Team Champions Arrogance (Chris Bosh & Scott Lost) claimed they had given AXP more than their fair share of chances to win the title, and that they have everything to lose in a title match, while AXP risks nothing. Bosh said the only way Arrogance would put the titles on the line is if AXP would put their masks on the line, making it a match Arrogance must win, and one the Aerial Express can’t afford to lose!
Having successfully defended his TNA X-Division Championship on four occasions in PWG, “Fallen Angel” Christopher Daniels is now growing confident in his role as champion, telling Commissioner “SoCalVal@aol.com” Valerie Wyndham that he will defend the title against any challenger she has to offer. After a few phone calls, SoCalVal found man she deems the perfect challenger, one who she thinks will end the Fallen Angel’s title reign, and that man is former X-Division Champion Chris Sabin!
Stemming from the controversial events at June 11th’s “Guitarmageddon!” the battle between the new SBS (Disco Machine, Excalibur & “Mr. Wrestling” Kevin Steen) and Super Dragon rages on, as Dragon teams up with El Generico & Human Tornado in a 6 person elimination match. Coming off a savage beating at the hands of SBS, as well as an unprecedented two losses in a row, Super Dragon is looking to exact some measure of revenge, and while not necessarily looking for a victory, he has promised that his team will give SBS the most vicious beating of their lives.
Plus in a special attraction match, the returning “Canadian Destroyer” Petey Williams squares off with “Havana Pitbull” Ricky Reyes!
Night 1 of “The 2nd Annual PWG Bicentennial Birthday Extravaganza” will also feature: “Technical Wizard” Joey Ryan, Los Luchas (Phoenix Star & Zokre,) Davey Richards, HookGun (Hook Bomberry & Top Gun Talwar,) PWG Commissioner “SoCalVal” Valerie Wyndham, and more!
