Huge news coming hot off the presses!
NWA Southwest/Panhandle Wrestling Federation is now known simply as NWA Amarillo! Though the name is new, it’s still hectic out at The Wrestleplex, as the stars of Amarillo’s original promotion, Amarillo Championship Wrestling, try to take over the place. But the PWF boys still have fight in them. Who will win this epic contest for brand supremacy?
June 23rd is huge as NWA Amarillo presents Tag Team Wars 3. Tag teams from all over will compete in a huge tournament, with the winners receiving their names on the Hero’s Cup, as well as a shot at NWA Amarillo Tag Team Champions Benny and JoJo Benitez. The main event will also see a triple threat match for the NWA Amarillo Heavyweight Championship, as “The Artist” Cody Jones defend the title against the former champ “The Prodigy” Jastin Taylor and NWA Amarillo Hall of Famer Prince Al Farat! Not only is this a huge show, but this is also a benefit show for Cribs for Life.
August 13th, NWA Amarillo will not only prove it’s tough enough, but show that it is stronger than ever, as former Tough Enough contestant Ryan “Skidmarks” Howe steps inside the NWA Amarillo squared circle. But, he isn’t coming alone, as the sizzling Jessie Belle Smothers, the daughter of Tracy Smothers, comes looking for her own fight.

The historic Portsmouth Guildhall will play host to this true global affair featuring stars from USA, Mexico and United Kingdom with Former WWE, TNA star and X Division Champion Daivari already pencilled for the line up along side Britain’s rising sensation Mr Moonsault Jake McCluskey and VPW’s newest star, 6’6 Mountain of Muscle Leon Shah who made his professional wrestling debut last year facing hardcore Holly before carrying out intensive training under the guidance of former WWE star Billy Gunn.
VPW makes every effort to raise the bar with each event time and time again, from the introduction of indoor firework displays, to the involvement of main stream celebrities such as ITV chat show host Paul O’Grady, Big Brother winners, TV and Radio Hosts and this event will be no exception. A guarantee has been given that this night will be no different with Varsity Pro Wrestling reaching new heights holding the event which promises to be the highlight of the british wrestling calendar in 2011.
With VPW’s recent talent swap agreement with NWA-Mexico firmly sealed, a name is set to be announced over the next couple of weeks of the Lucha Star set to grace british soil and certainly add some extra flavour to an already anticipated tournament for Varsity Pro Wrestling.
