Upcoming airtimes for this episode of PWO TV on STO:
Sunday night, November 9: 11:00 PM & 4:00 AM
Scheduled for this episode:
Gregory Iron vs. Mike Tolar
Two men from contrasting backgrounds and very contrasting experiences at Wrestlelution return to PWO action to square off one-on-one. Mike Tolar suffered the most embarrassing night of his career at PWO’s signature event, being humiliated by Benjamin Boone, King Kong Bundy, and WWE Hall of Famer Greg “The Hammer” Valentine all in one night. Tolar hopes to erase these memories and continue his career as Cleveland’s hometown hero and most gifted natural athlete -- in his own mind at least. Meanwhile, Wrestlelution may have been the best night of Gregory Iron’s career. Despite losing a bloody Last Man Standing war with Johnny Gargano, Iron refused to be carried out after the match, standing triumphantly to walk out on his own power, proving his will could not be broken, and dream could not be killed. Now Iron’s return to full-time PWO action sees him opposing one of PWO’s brightest shining stars. Who can come out on top in this battle of much-needed momentum?
Josh Prohibition vs. Bobby Beverly
After last week’s announcement that Jason Bane would be the very first challenger for M-Dogg 20 Matt Cross’ PWO Heavyweight Title, Josh Prohibition was reportedly enraged. Prohibition has been overheard saying his war with M-Dogg is NOT over until the PWO Championship is securely around Josh Prohibition’s waist. Probo demanded to see action this week, and officials have obliged, pitting him against promising upstart Bobby Beverly. Beverly scored big at Wrestlelution, teaming with Hobo Joe as Hobo scored his first ever pinfall win in PWO. But with Josh Prohibition irate and looking to send a message straight to M-Dogg 20 and PWO management, what will the fate of Beverly be in the biggest match of his career?
Noj The Wild Samoan vs. Corey Winters
We first saw Noj, and quite a bit of him, at Wrestlelution as Marion Fontaine’s surprise recipient of Jimmy DeMarco’s humiliation. Last week on PWO TV, we discovered Fontaine’s goal of befriending society’s outcasts and oddballs and give a place of belonging to the friendless. Little did we know when we first saw him, Noj is an accomplished wrestler as well. This week the 300-plus pound Samoan makes his PWO in-ring debut against rookie Corey Winters, who has been looking to get noticed in his own right and has reportedly formed a friendship with fellow PWO newcomer Eric Ryan. Will Fontaine’s latest find be successful?
“Omega” Aaron Draven vs. Eric Ryan
Two more athletes make their PWO in-ring debuts as Corey Winters’ newfound ally Eric Ryan goes one-on-one with the highly touted Omega Aaron Draven. Draven, a native of the Erie, Pa area, is known as one of professional wrestling’s ultimate risk-takers, putting his body on the line to amaze and impress no matter the cost. He is called “Omega” because every match or risk could very well be his last, but this is your chance to see his first foray into PWO competition. Will Aaron Draven live up to his reputation or will Eric Ryan spoil this much-anticipated debut?
Michael Cash’s Corner Featuring The Clash
Michael Cash’s weekly sit-down segment returns for its second installment, this time featuring Ernie Ballz & Brian Bender, collectively known as The Clash. The Clash were none too happy with the outcome of their Wrestlelution tag match, but where will they go from here? Who will The Clash target next and what are their immediate goals? Michael Cash investigates this week.
NEXT WEEK: PWO Heavyweight Title: M-Dogg 20 Matt Cross vs. Jason Bane
Last week, the deal was sealed and the match was made official and it will take place on PWO television on Sunday night, November 16. M-Dogg Matt Cross made history by becoming the first-ever PWO Champion, capturing his first heavyweight crown in his hometown of Cleveland. Meanwhile Bane solidified his reputation as The Most Dominant Man in PWO by running Cronus clear out of town. What can possibly happen when these two beloved forces collide one-on-one for Ohio’s ultimate prize? We will find out in just one week!
