| News & Rumors - July 27, 2009 IP: 74.178.167.55 Posted on 7/27/2009 at 10:33:14 PM by Ultimate Promo Zone - News and Rumors would like to thank the great fans who came out to watch “Torn to Shreds” on July 18th. Ultimate Wrestling came back from a short Summer break with a bang. “Torn to Shreds” saw the termination of a legend, two title defenses, the debut of a breath-taking new wrestler, and a very controversial “turn”. Ultimate Wrestling is getting ready for its’ next show on August 1st, titled ‘Aftermath ‘09’. News and Rumors has some HUGE announcements pertaining to shows in the very near future. Thanks to all the wrestlers, staff, security and most importantly the fans for making “Torn to Shreds” a fantastic show. - In the eyes of some fans, ‘The Former Sinner” Nick Virtue “stole” a victory from “The Master of Devastation” Cameron Frost on July 18th. Virtue has been nursing a torn meniscus since May and wasn’t sure if he’d be able to have the match he wanted to have on July 18th. Before the match, Nick expressed his respect and admiration for Cameron Frost. He told Frost that he has a knee injury and that he expected Frost to take it easy on him. Frost, who was attacked from behind by Virtue on May 23rd in Milton, didn’t believe a word of what Nick was saying. A very scary moment happened towards the end of the match when Frost shot Virtue into the ropes, Nick’s leg gave out, and he crumbled to the mat. Senior Official Frog Lane told Frost to go back to his corner. Frost looked on with a look of genuine concern while Nick told Frog that his knee was “gone”. Announcer Curt Diamond and Head of Security, Joel, went to check on Nick while Nick screamed in agony. Frog started to help Virtue up to get him to the back. Frost then approached Nick. Once Frost’s guard was down, Nick small packaged Frost and got a three count. Frost shook his head in disbelief, laughing to himself knowing that he had fallen to one of Virtue’ s mind games. - A huge “dream match” has been signed involving both Cameron Frost and Nick Virtue in Pensacola on August 1st. Frost remains in the title hunt and will get his rematch on August 22nd in Milton FL. Carlos D’Angelo, current X-Factor champion isn’t defending his belt until August 22nd either. D’Angelo said he’s got beef with Marcus Gibbs and “didn’t have anything to do that night” so he offered a tag team spot to Frost. Neither Gibbs nor Virtue has responded, but Frost has agreed to team with D’Angelo in Milton. News and Rumors is happy to report that the tag match, whether Gibbs or Virtue like it or not, WILL take place. This marks the first time in Ultimate Wrestling History that the X-Factor Championship and the Heavyweight Championship are appearing together in the same tag match. Gibbs created quite a bit of controversy after attacking D’Angelo on July 18th. Although his motives aren’t yet know, Gibbs has said that he’s got a new outlook on life. He’s past the point of caring about the fans and his goal is to win gold and “please his princess.” News and Rumors has no idea what the last part of that statement means, but you wont want to miss this incredible tag match on August 1st in Pensacola! - Deathrow. The word alone should send shivers down the spine of anyone who has seen this behemoth of a man. Joe Gibson showed little fear during his match with the giant. The match was thrown out after both men put their hands on senior official Frog Lane. The sound of the bell did not slow down Deathrow or Joe Gibson as both men kept throwing punch after punch. Security, staff and a good amount of wrestlers had to come to the ring to hold Joe Gibson back. “The Story of the Year” Brian Caige was in the ring trying to keep Deathrow back when Deathrow decided he was tired of listening to Caige. Caige was picked up over Deathrow's head and thrown into the crowd of security, staff, and wrestlers. The only man left standing was Joe Gibson himself. This gave Joe an opportunity to run into the ring and continue the brawl. News and Rumors has heard that UW WILL NOT sign a rematch for these too men. The chaos that transpired after “Torn to Shreds” was reckless and showed little concern for safety. Joe Gibson said he’ll be in Pensacola on August 1st. Deathrow has also said that he’ll be in Pensacola on August 1st. No official match has been signed, but both men promise a confrontation. - “Torn to Shreds” saw a very scary, very intense moment involving Bobby Doll, Uncle Jim and Diana Drake-Hearse. Diana Drake-Hearse did exactly what she said she’d do when she ripped Robert Gibson’s Ultimate Wrestling contract up. Robert Gibson is no longer with Ultimate Wrestling, due to stipulations from Milton's match between Flexx and Doll. Bobby Doll took his frustration out on Diana-Drake Hearse by grabbing her by the hair and pulling his fist back. Uncle Jim, who normally aggress with whatever Bobby Doll says and does, apparently couldn’t watch a woman be abused. Jim stepped in between Bobby and Diana. Dianna got pushed into the turnbuckle and tried to stand up and regain her composure. Right after that, Bobby shoved Jim into Diana, who crumbled. Bobby went to the outside and grabbed a chair, but Jim grabbed it before he could hit Diana with it. Security, announcers, and even commissioner Sasso pleaded with Doll to think things over. Livid and out of control, he picked up Diana Drake-Hearse for his dreaded pile driver. Aeon Flexx ran to the ring and stopped “The Black Sheep” before things got any more out of hand. A livid Alexander Hearse III set a match for Flexx and Doll that night. Doll came out on top, and Flexx said that he and Bobby are “tied 1 to 1.” He issued a challenge to Bobby on August 1st to “break the tie”. Diana Drake- Hearse has said that because Flexx was courageous and came to her aid, he has a shot at any belt, any time he wants. You won’t want to miss Doll VS Flexx III on August 1st. - News and Rumors is happy to report that rumors of a tag tournament were indeed true! On September 12th in Milton Florida, Ultimate Wrestling will hold the First Annual ‘Ecstasy of Gold’ Tournament.

Quick News and Rumors and Injury Report Rumor has it a small confrontation went down after “Torn to Shreds” between Joe Gibson and Deathrow. Cameras were NOT rolling when this happened, but apparently Deathrow made some disparaging comments about some of the UW students and Joe heard it.
