The storm is over

THE STORM IS OVER


Shining Nick Silver and Sammy V have returned to New Zealand after training at "Lance Storms Wrestling Academy" and now they give us their final thoughts on the experience:

Shining Nick Silver:

After being away for too long, I (The Shining One) your hero, "Nick Silver" have returned to this land of my birth. Canada, the great frozen north held many things for me. The bear, the wolf, the eagle. But I went there for one thing, Lance Storm; One of Canada's greatest professional wrestlers who agreed to allow me to step into his ring and train in the art of professional wrestling; and now I return to you, ready to take to the ring once again, facing the best New Zealand can offer.



Sammy V:
So Sammy V is back to my home New Zealand now. 3 months away in a foreign country was tough i'll admit. The food was weird, people couldn't understand my 'accent' and I got lost a few times in this city that was -30 degrees. But now i'm back and i'm ready to fight. I'm bigger, faster, stronger and so much more wiser from my training at Storm Wrestling Academy. I feel like a veteran and i've only been doing this a year. It's so good to be back home and now I can start Sammy V's very own legacy. I'm coming for titles and I'll fight anyone I'm put up against. Even if its my training buddy in Calgary 'Shining' Nick Silver. It's domination time!

 Due to unforeseen circumstances "Alfred Valentine" will no longer be competing at "Right 2 Rumble"
 
Rehua Quote:
"I am disappointed to hear this, but the show must go on..."
 
Therefore; I have decided to give Tykade a preview of whats to come at "Nightmare", he will now be facing someone who can match him size for size; the dark soldier himself "Axl".

The last two matches have finally been announced:

Tykade vs Alfred Valentine (Non-Title)

In order to prepare Tykade for his monumental match against Reuben De Jong at Nightmare, the CWO (Rehua) has organised with the IPW commissioner (Dion McCracken), a one on one match against the veteran of IPW wrestling Alfred Valentine at "Right to Rumble".

Rehua quote:
"I know Tykade has the power, but against Alfred Valentine, we'll see if he has the skill".
/media/knox5star.jpg    /media/ipws.jpg
Dal Knox, Travis Banks & J.C Star vs Vinny Dunn, A-Class & Ninja Fury
(6 man Tag Match)

This is a much anticipated match up and to make sure it is a truly special event the CWO has called in a special guest referee to oversee the proceedings; none other than "The Silencer - Jean Miracle".

Rehua quote:
"Who else can bring that touch of class to a show but Silencer".

Announcement for right2rumble

IPW wrestler "Mischa Ivanoff" has asked the CWO of NZWPW (Rehua) if he could take part in the 15 man inter-promotional "Royal Rumble" in Levin on December 3rd.  The CWO has agreed to this but not without consequence to Mischa:
 
Rehua Quote:
 
"Mischa must prove his worth to me if he wants to be included in the Rumble, therefore, in order for him to be accepted  he must fight a WPW wrestler first... and just to make it interesting, he must issue an open challenge to any wrestler in the WPW roster. Once he has done that he is then allowed in the Rumble".

Official Statement from the CWO

The C.W.O (Rehua) wants to end the year with a bang so has decided to take the last WPW show back to his home town of Levin. The show is called "The Right 2 Rumble" and will feature some of the best wrestlers from both IPW and WPW and will culminate in an Inter-promotional Royal Rumble, the likes of which haven't been seen since the PWI Invitational. It will also potentially give participants from IPW's "Rival Turf" a chance to settle old scores. 
Not only will it be one of the best WPW shows of the year; but thanks to negotiations between IPW and WPW management, it will also be a preview of great things to come.
 
Quote: Rehua
 
I'm announcing two matches now; as I want to wet your appetite, and then I will announce more as it gets closer to the event"
 
First matches announced:
 
  • Link Van Haggard vs Mikey Rave vs Rocketman vs Johnny Idol

"Shining" Nick Silver and Sammy V Third blog from Canada

For those of you that follow my “Facebook” status updates religiously, you will have noticed that on consecutive days, I have thought that Calgary was having an “Indian Summer” and then the next day, snow. From one day to the next, it is impossible to guess how warm it will be, but apart from the snow day, it has been quite clement.

Four classmates and I stay at a house owned by Mr Storm. The house is a nice 2 storey place, fully furnished, close to shops and handy to the academy.

My house mates come from Scotland, England, America and Canada, and they are also training with Mr Storm. In the mornings, we all get up at 9 so we can watch Spongebob with our breakfast. Then it is off to the academy for training, and usually after that, I head to the gym for a workout.

We are a little over halfway through training at the academy, and I have decided that I will make my return to the southern shores after New Years to take advantage of the NZ version of summer to thaw me out from my time in the great frozen north.

After 6 weeks here I am really enjoying my training. I have become a lot stronger and have put to practice a lot of Lance Storm's training and advice. We have started to have matches and in my first fight I dominated some skinny kid from my class. I'm hoping to learn some more cool maneuvers and dominate a few more people in the coming weeks! I'm back in NZ on the 30th of November and can't wait to get home!

NZWPW Chairman's Challenge tonight

NZWPW Chairman's Challenge tonight

Written by David Dunn   

Chairman's Challenge

NZWPW Chairman Martin Stirling holds the second annual Chairman’s Challenge tonight at the Lower Hutt Town Hall, in an attempt to find out just who is the best wrestler in the country.

With matches not announced until bell time, wrestlers taking part in the 12-man challenge could end up facing any one of 11 other competitors, meaning they’ll have to be on their game and ready for anyone.

Interestingly, Martin Stirling has prevented several of the wrestlers who competed in last year’s Chairman’s Challenge from returning to the competition in 2010. An official statement issued by the chairman reads:

“Everyone is expecting to see the top wrestlers only in action, while my rookies would have to sit it out yet again, so I've decided that it's time to let the veterans sit this one out and give the rookies the chance to see if they can make the grade.”

NZWPW's CWO Rehua backs Martin Stirling's decision, but has announced that not all veteran competitors will be given the night off. All NZWPW title holders will be entered into the Chairman’s Challenge as well as the man who was voted as the best wrestler in last year's competition, Roger Ventura.

Wrestlers entered into the Chairman’s Challenge include

  • Axl
  • D-Hoya
  • Fredrick the Great
  • GI Jay
  • NZWPW Tag Team Champion JC Star
  • Kid Caprice
  • The Nerd
  • Roger Ventura
  • Rufguts
  • Thor
  • NZWPW Tag Team Champion Travis Banks
  • NZWPW Champion Tykade

With matches decided at random later tonight, who will square off with who? Could we see NZWPW Tag Team Champions JC Star and Travis Banks have to wrestle one another? Could Rufguts get a shot at the NZWPW Champion, Tykade? Might D-Hoya wrestle Roger Ventura in a New Zealand dream match?

NZWPW Chairman’s Challenge takes place tonight, October 15, at the Lower Hutt Town Hall on Laings Road, Lower Hutt.
Click here for a map. Doors open at 7pm with the first match starting at 7.30pm. Tickets are available on the door at a rate of $15 for adults at $10 for children.
