BREAKING: Beyond’s “Uncharted Territory” Returns In October

*The Following Press Release Was Issued By IWTV*


BREAKING: Beyond Wrestling’s Uncharted Territory picked up for third season!

Beyond Wrestling’s critically acclaimed series, “Uncharted Territory,” returns to IWTV this October. 

The third season of the weekly series will stream live on IWTV every Thursday night at 8pm ET, beginning on October 7th. 

Season three will consist of 13 episodes and conclude on December 30th.

At the time of its debut in April of 2019, “Uncharted Territory” was the only wrestling show broadcasting live every week that was not produced by WWE.  

“There is no substitute for LIVE,” says Beyond’s Drew Cordeiro.

“We have spent the last 18 months putting together a roster of the best young, unsigned athletes in pro wrestling. The first two seasons of ‘Uncharted Territory’ launched many careers into the national spotlight. Season three promises to be the most competitive yet. Our crowd in Worcester has the most important job in pro wrestling since they decide who will carry the industry into the future.”

More details on the return of Uncharted Territory will be made available in the coming weeks.

You can watch the first two seasons of Uncharted Territory any time with your IWTV subscription.

Makaze vs. Surge – The Final Chapter

*The Following Press Release Was Sent By Dynamo Pro Wrestling*

 

APRIL 10TH, 2019

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Makaze vs. Surge – The Final Chapter

                Dynamo Pro Wrestling is proud to announce an all-ages professional wrestling event on Saturday, April 20th, 2019. This professional wrestling event, sponsored by Slackers and Aries Screen Printing, will be held at the Concordia Turners Gymnasium, located at 6432 Gravois Avenue in St. Louis, Missouri. Doors open at 7:00 P.M. with a bell time of 8:00 P.M. Adult tickets are $10 in advance and $15 the day of the event. Tickets for children from five to twelve years old are $5. Tickets for children under five years old are free. Advanced tickets can be purchased at dynamoprowrestling.bigcartel.com.

 

In the main event, the Dynamo Pro Wrestling heavyweight championship will be on the line as Dynamo Pro Wrestling heavyweight champion “The Wind of Destruction” Makaze will defend against former champion “Lights Out” Adrian Surge. For close to two years, these men have been intertwined in one of the fiercest rivalries in Dynamo Pro Wrestling history. On September 21st, 2018, Adrian Surge defeated Makaze to win the Dynamo Pro Wrestling heavyweight championship. After a vicious attack, organized by Makaze, Adrian Surge had to relinquish the championship and spent nearly five months on the sidelines with a shoulder injury.

 

Through manipulation and intimidation, on November 24th, 2018, Makaze regained the Dynamo Pro Wrestling heavyweight championship. Since regaining the Dynamo Pro Wrestling heavyweight championship, “The Wind of Destruction” Makaze has created a path of misery and destruction throughout Dynamo Pro Wrestling. At our last event at the Concordia Turners Gymnasium on March 30th, “Lights Out” Adrian Surge returned to Dynamo Pro Wrestling and demanded an opportunity to fight Makaze for the championship. Makaze agreed…but some severe provisions.  This match with be contested with no disqualification and the loser of the match must retire from professional wrestling.  Come out and experience the final chapter of this storied feud on Saturday, April 20th at the Concordia Turners Gymnasium.

WWE WrestleMania 35 Preview/Predictions

By Nicholas Jason Lopez

 

NXT TakeOver: New York (or TakeOver: Brooklyn V?) came, conquered and impressed everyone in all its glory.

300-pound Heavyweight Hanson performed a handspring back elbow and a top rope senton to the floor, Velveteen Dream was the GODDAMN STATUE OF LIBERTY and the main event between Johnny Gargano and Adam Cole delivered more wows than a summer blockbuster.

To be frank – WrestleMania will pale in comparison to its NXT counterpart and that’s to put it nicely, despite the fact that Mania will run more than twice the amount of time and contain more than three times as many matches.

Below are our predictions to shape Mania into a halfway decent show. If you’ve followed the Raw side (without falling asleep), the build has been abysmal while SmackDown has held themselves together better thanks to Kofi Kingston’s journey, but there are still some flaws here and there.

Let’s get to it.

*The following press release was sent to us by IWTV*

 

“IWTV to Stream 50 Events LIVE before the end of July… and we aren’t done yet!

Earlier today IWTV announced that we will be live streaming six events from The Collective during WrestleMania weekend. That announcement was just the beginning.

Over the course of the next 5 months, IWTV will live stream at least 50 events. This ambitious undertaking demonstrates our commitment to independent wrestling and our desire to continue to develop the scene.

Independent wrestling is entering a new era. IWTV aims to be a vehicle for the advancement of new stars, new promotions, new ideas and new concepts. A part of this effort is making independent wrestling as accessible as we possibly can.

With that in mind we have posted our current schedule of live streaming events through the month of July. This is just a first draft – we plan to add even more to it and encourage you to check it regularly. We hope you will join us in rebuilding independent wrestling. We can’t do it without you.”
