BPW Heavyweight Championship
Rico Dynamite(c) vs. Sheik Khan Abadi
As mentioned, Rico Dynamite was fortunate to walk out of Taking Liberties with the belt. He was pinned 1-2-3 in the middle of the ring and benefited from a second referee’s decision to reverse the call. The Raunchy One has been living right and catching all the breaks lately, and he is gonna have to pull out all the stops in his next challenge! BPW has named Sheik Khan Abadi number one contender, and Sheik is no stranger to the label number 1! He has held the distinction of being “Number One in NorCal” for quite some time, and his pedigree is well established since he currently holds both the Devil Mountain and Action Coast Empire heavyweight titles. Can he make it a trifecta and build a golden bridge that stretches the entire California coast? Or will Rico Dynamite pull another rabbit out of his hat?
BPW Tag Team Championships
The Suburban Commandos(c) vs. The Working Dead
The Suburban Commandos have run through just about every tag team in BPW since their debut last year, and last month was no exception. At Taking Liberties, they made short work of two of the biggest and baddest heavyweights in BPW, Extreme Loco and Mikey O’Shea. Now granted, those two men hate each other and were forced to tag, but T-Rent and D-Unit looked like men amongst boys throwing around Mikey and Loco. Loco even suffered an injury that will keep him out of action for some time. That does not bode well for The Working Dead, who earned their shot by defeating 3 other tag teams. BBoy and Kaddy have impressed in their short time tagging together, but they are facing a pair of twins who have been beating guys up their whole lives, not to mention the considerable size difference. In BPW, you never say never, and if anyone can beat the odds it’s The Working Dead!
No DQ Falls Count Anywhere
Tito Escondido vs. Tyler Bateman
At Counterstrike back in February, these two men barely knew each other. All they knew is they were fighting for position in the BPW ranks, and with help from Raze, Tyler Bateman came out on top. That was just the beginning of their bad blood. To make matters worse, that win earned Bateman a shot at Rico Dynamite by virtue of Mikey and Loco’s suspensions, and you can bet that Tito felt cheated. Trying to settle the score, Tito cost Bateman his title shot at Brawl in the Hall, and ever since their collision course has been a foregone conclusion. Last month, Tito and Bateman both took the Ring Warrior match against Jaeger just so they could get at each other, and Tito left Bateman layed out so Jaeger could pin him. Now the culmination is here, and there is no turning back! These two men will do battle all over Legion Post 716, not just because they hate each other, but because FALLS COUNT ANYWHERE! No pesky DQs to stop this one either, so fans, be ready to move out of the way as these two bulls wreck the china shop!
West Coast Heavyweight Championship – Famous B vs. Ric Ellis
Minutes after Famous B went 20 minutes plus with A.J. Kirsch, Ric Ellis came back to The West Coast Wrestling Company, and made quite a statement. In a video to be posted soon, the response has been overwhelming from the fans to sign this match. On June 30th, the war has begun.
BPW Ring Warrior Championship
Jeremy Jaeger(c) vs. Seville Alvarez vs. Perry Von Vicious
Jeremy Jaeger is the longest reigning Ring Warrior Champion in BPW history, and while many would say it is pure luck, you can’t sell him short on savvy! The man they call “Top Shelf” has retained his belt using his wits as much as good fortune, and it doesn’t hurt that he has The Greater Good in his corner. At Legion Hall of Doom, he will be facing one of the top young stars in BPW in Seville Alvarez, who seems to be on the verge of a major breakthrough. His other opponent, Perry Von Vicious, makes his BPW return after spending much of 2012 increasing his already stellar pedigree. Perry is no stranger to accolades as he has held multiple titles, is a former APW Young Lions Cup winner, and also had a stint in Japan. Now he is looking to take BPW gold back to his Napa Valley mansion, but he is going to have to beat some stiff competition. Can Seville get over the hump and take home his first title? Will Perry Von Vicious turn out someone’s lights will the Billion Dollar Blackout? Or will the champ play them both like pawns in his chess game and remain king of the Ring Warrior division?
Silverheart Radicalz vs. The Revolution
At Taking Liberties, The Silverheart Radicalz and The Revolution were just two of four teams to compete for number one contenders in the tag division. The Working Dead walked away the victors of that match and take on the Suburban Commandos this month for the titles, but these two teams stand on the cusp of contending for the belts. Ray Rosas and Lucha Machine are former tag champions and are no strangers to climbing the proverbial ladder. Simon Lotto and Jason Andrews are the young up and comers of the tag division, but their alliance with Ring Warrior champ Jeremy Jaeger and Mondo Vega in The Greater Good gives them strength in numbers. Can the Silverhearts inch one step closer to being two time tag champs? Or will The Greater Good chisel the foundations of a golden dynasty?
Mikey O’Shea vs. Levi Shapiro
Mikey O’Shea and Extreme Loco took a beating last month when they were forced to tag against the tag champs. Loco suffered an injury that has him out of action, and Mikey will tell you he’s still not feeling right himself. With their feud on hold until Loco’s return, BPW has decided to pit The Irish Juggernaut against another man stuck in injury limbo, Unorthodox Levi Shapiro! One half of Circumsexy, Levi finds himself back in singles action due to his partner The Riv’s injury, and as Famous B and Tito Escondido can attest, this Jew is no slouch! Mikey better not be looking ahead to his big match with Loco or he may end up on the wrong side of the Gefiltefist!
