Xtreme Wrestling Alliance Update

16th December 2006

- Well just one day ago, news broke out of Paul Heyman's new creation, the Xtreme Wrestling Alliance and the whole build up to XWA has been hyped and at last, the hype may well be upon us. Paul Heyman has released comments that on January 6th 2007, The Xtreme Revolution will be an event held in Philadelphia, of course the former stomping ground of Heyman's former company, the Extreme Championship Wrestling. Heyman also stated that he'd been in contact with numerous guys surrounding his latest project.

- Hours after revealing the launch of XWA at The Xtreme Revolution show on January 6th, Heyman has released details of sponsership details with Yahoo, Carling Beer, Budweiser and Ceasers Palace, Heyman is said to be delighted with this news. It has also been revealed that Heyman has signed former ECW star Justin Credible to an open contract, this is the first signing to the XWA and Heyman has promised more.

17th December 2006

- The first large event of Paul Heyman's Xtreme Wrestling Alliance will be a night of champions! Heyman stated on a live radio webcast that Perry Saturn, Chris Hero and Steve Corino have signed to contracts, Heyman confirmed all of them would be performing at the event and one of the men could indeed walk out with any of the two single championships up for grabs. No details were released on the type of matches but the XWA Universal Championship and XWA Television Championship will be on the line, the XWA Universal Tag Team Championships are also up for grabs, no tag teams have been signed yet.

19th December 2006

- The XWA continues to take shape, Paul Heyman has been very busy over the last four days, it's hard to believe just four days after the announcement of the company, Paul Heyman has an eight man roster. Heyman has taken advantage of open contracts from numerous companies. Here is a full list of the roster as we know it so far.

- Bobby Roode

- Chris Hero

- Chris Kanyon

- Colt Cabana

- Giant Bernard

- Justin Credible

- Perry Saturn

- Steve Corino

The additions of Bobby Roode and Chris Kanyon may come as a suprise to some, but Heyman couldn't resist the offer of Chris Kanyon who is said to be a changed man, Kanyon has a lot more focus and it is expected Heyman felt the addition of Kanyon could help some of the younger guys he plans on bringing in. Roode is a very talented individual and is only appearing in TNA and Heyman is a very big fan of the Canadian. With Cobana, Giant Bernard and Perry Saturn also, the roster is one of much experience and talent, various rumours surrounding Tajiri, Mike Awesome, Shane Douglas and Rhino continue, Heyman is said to be looking at bringing in some more characters from his past.

We will release more details as we get them.

It's the least of your problems, but I'm fairly sure Heyman's 90-day no-compete clause would encompass ventures like this. You know, though, while the premise behind the creation of the company is basic, the fact that you're using some talent people wouldn't think to use is good, in particular, mad props for the Giant Bernard love. I may or may not read further, but it's an interesting concept, so long as you don't go the obvious and dull route by having Corino or Hero be the champion.

December 20th 2006

- As the day developed, Paul Heyman released a statement to Vince McMahon and the rest of the world on his new XWA.com website, it stated that he read the small print to his contract and it only said that Paul Heyman could not appear on rival wrestling promotions television programming for 90 days. As the XWA has no television deal, this CANNOT affect Paul Heyman's new venture, this was simply used to stop Heyman joining TNA.

- Before releasing this statement, the XWA.com website was finally revealed. The site was posted with an Xtreme Revolution page, and the first two matches for the first event of the company were also released for the night of champions, and Paul Heyman has put together the double main event and my god, how he didn't disappoint, the card so far is as follows;

xr.gif

meppv.gif

XWA UNIVERSAL CHAMPIONSHIPThe feature main event of the evening will feature three huge names and even better, there going at it in a cage. The King Of Old School Steve Corino, Train Wreck Giant Bernard and the name says it all, Justin Credible face off in a triple threat match up. Corino a multiple time championship holder in numerous Indy promotions and in Japan promises to play a huge part in Heyman's latest creation but will it be asking too much to win the Universal title in his first outing? Giant Bernard who has been recently touring in Japan returns to professional wrestling, formally A-Train in the WWE, this monster is a former Intercontinental champion and boasts a huge kick to the face as his deadly finishing move. Justin Credible only knows to well what it is like to work for Paul Heyman, the former ECW champion and Tag Team champion maybe the favourite going in to this match, but who will have the right to walk out of Extreme Revolution with the grandest prize in the XWA?

tvppv.gif

XWA TELEVISION CHAMPIONSHIP

The Television Championship also gets decided in a triple threat match, putting together two superstars with a big future against a veteran of the business. Bobby Roode, Perry Saturn and Chris Hero square off to decide the only other singles championship in the company. Bobby Roode looks to continue his good work in NWA:TNA, the Canadian brute looks to add the XWA TV title to his accomplishments but will getting past Saturn and Hero prove to be too much? What needs to be said about Perry Saturn? The man has been everywhere and faced off with basically everyone, a former WWF European champion has to be favourite to be walking out with the championship in this match, doesn't he? A former CZW World champion, Chris Hero maybe not that far behind in being the favourite to capture the championship and with all three of these men being in the ring at the same time, who knows what will go down?

December 21st 2006

- C.W Anderson, Danny Doring, Elijah Burke, Julio Dinero, Roadkill, Sylvester Terkay and Yoshihiro Tajiri have all been confirmed by Paul Heyman as signing open contracts, also adding most if not all would be appearing at Xtreme Revolution, if this is so we believe here at XWABACKSTAGE.net believe that these will be the final additions to the roster before this event.

All except Tajiri and Dinero, Heyman made the signings after recent releases from the ECW brand in the WWE. Doring was released only three days ago, it is believed he left because of the departure of Paul Heyman. The additions of Anderson, Tajiri, Roadkill and Doring brings more experience to the roster. Whilst the additions of the other men sees the first 'younger generation' of wrestlers enter the company. The charismatic Burke who will be competing under Samuel Burke along with tag team partner, Terkay, were released only yesterday. It is believed that the team will be facing off with the last ever ECW Tag Team champions, Roadkill and Doring at Xtreme Revolution. Dinero is young but boasts experience with a lot of the Indy promotions on the circuit, mainly you'd remember him from NWA:TNA as a member of Ravens first Flock in TNA.

- Another match as been released to the public via the XWA.com website;

cvst.gif

Colt Cabana vs. Yoshihiro Tajiri

In the first singles match-up named for the Xtreme Revolution card, the experienced Tajiri faces off against RoH fan favourite and highly rated, Colt Cabana. Who's going to take the victory and advance up the ratings?

- Here is the updated roster;

- Bobby Roode

- C.W Anderson

- Chris Hero

- Chris Kanyon

- Colt Cabana

- Danny Doring

- Giant Bernard

- Julio Dinero

- Justin Credible

- Perry Saturn

- Roadkill

- Samuel Burke

- Steve Corino

- Terkay

- Yoshihiro Tajiri

December 22nd 2006

- We suggested that Paul Heyman maybe finished with adding more talent to the roster; the latest name to be linked with the XWA is Paul Heyman's Last Big Thing, Brock Lesnar. Lesnar has stated a return to professional wrestling could be on the cards, WWE was the only place Lesnar would consider, but will his former agent be able to convince Brock Lesnar otherwise? Tune in over the next few weeks and we'll let you know. Sonny Siaki has also been added to the roster page, Siaki will debut at Xtreme Revolution when he faces off against another latest signing to the XWA, C.W Anderson.

cwss.gif
C.W Anderson vs. Sonny Siaki

The former ECW superstar, C.W Anderson debuts in the XWA have recently being released from the WWE where he appeared on the ECW brand. Anderson will have his hands full as a cocky Sonny Siaki looks to send a message through the veteran. Who's going to win this battle, The Spinebuster? Or will it be The Siakalypse that is victorious?

- XWA Xtreme Revolution is taking shape nicely, here is the confirmed card so far as it stands;

XWA Universal Championship - Giant Bernard vs. Justin Credible vs. Steve Corino

XWA Television Championship- Bobby Roode vs. Chris Hero vs. Perry Saturn

Colt Cabana vs. Yoshihiro Tajiri

C.W Anderson vs. Sonny Siaki

December 23rd 2006

- Chris Kanyon will be appearing at Xtreme Revolution but he will not be competing, it is believed Kanyon maybe starting an angle, the last time we heard, the latest plan was to have Chris Kanyon feud with Tajiri but over the last few days the name has changed many times, we've also heard that Kanyon and Chris Hero may have some kind of angle, Scott Steiner has also been mentioned as a new signing and a possible opponent for Kanyon, but it is believed Heyman isn't a big fan of Steiner.

December 24th 2006

- The XWA has released the final match for Xtreme Revolution and as we revealed three days ago, Samuel Burke and Terkay will square off against the last ever ECW Tag Team Champions, Danny Doring and Roadkill.

tag.gif

XWA UNIVERSAL TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIPS

In a match that will see the new take on the experienced, the XWA Universal Tag Team Championships are going to be leaving Philadelphia in very capable hands. Burke is very charismatic and someone that has a bright future in the business and with his 'muscle' Terkay, the two blend very nicely as a tag team and deserve to win the titles, so people thinking Doring and Roadkill are going to walk this one will be in for a nasty surprise come Xtreme Revolution. Roadkill and Danny Doring have also just been released from the ECW brand in the WWE and can tell the world that they are Paul Heyman's last ECW Tag Team champions. Doring felt releasing Heyman was wrong and was released himself, causing Roadkill (Braddock) to walk with his partner. The experienced team look to add the XWA Tag titles to their accomplishments, but can they pass the Elijah Experience?

December 27th 2006

- Alex Shelley, Claudio Castagnoli, Donovan Morgan and The Messiah have all been added to the XWA.com roster page, but details have been released and none of them will be at Xtreme Revolution but it can be confirmed they will be appearing at XWA shows in the near future. The names pretty much explains themselves, all will be known to wrestling fans. Shelley is very highly rated by many of his fellow wrestlers in the back and in the ring. Castagnoli will be known from CZW where he was one half of The Kings Of Wrestling with Chris Hero, his signings brings the two back together and it was Hero who put in a good word for his friend to Paul Heyman, it is not known if they will be appearing as a tag team in XWA. Morgan was unemployed and approached Paul Heyman himself, he is a multiple time champion in the APW with all titles. The Messiah also comes from CZW and is a legend in his own right, he certainly could make a huge impact here and even though Paul Heyman isn't to keen on his attitude, his in-ring style appealed to Heyman and his latest product.

Plus, Xtreme Revolution will witness the return of Chris Kanyon and we here at XWABACKSTAGE ask you, Who Better? The highly anticipated return is at the first event of the XWA and Kanyon is believed to have a message for a XWA superstar.

- We can exclusively reveal that Paul Heyman has added another member to his roster, BUT, it isn't known who it is and we can also reveal the person or people will be debuting at Xtreme Revolution. Paul Heyman has done well to keep this a secret. Stay tuned for more details, or like us, you'll probably have to wait until Xtreme Revolution. It is rumoured recently released Trevor Murdoch and Lance Cade maybe the mystery men. Alex Shelley has also been mentioned in bringing his debut forward and him playing a role in the Television Championship match.

- Speaking of the WWE, it has released numerous amounts of talent from their roster. The latest batch to be released include, M.V.P, Rene Dupree, Viscera, Rob Conway and Al Snow, Snow has also been released of training duties he had with WWE. The contracts of Jeff Hardy and Matt Hardy are also set to expire soon, Chris Masters, Charlie Haas and Scotty 2 Hotty find themselves in the same ship, their futures are not known. All have at least three months left.

January 2nd 2007

- More details of the XWA have been released, they are as follows;

Money - $4500000

P.I - 50%

Risk Level - 80%

Production - 75%

Merchandising - 70%

Advertising - 60%

- The future of the ECW brand in the WWE is now in more doubt and the XWA is now welcoming Joey Styles as their head announcer, it isn't known when Heyman made the deal and it isn't known if Styles would take an interest in the product but he will be commentating at the event, Paul Heyman may join him as the color commentary but that isn't known yet. Heyman has also confirmed his backstage staff is taking shape, Sgt. Slaughter and Ted DiBase are known to have joined as road agents but we do not know anything else.

January 3rd 2007

- We would like to wish you a very happy new year but apart from all the drunkenness, the Xtreme Revolution event is now merely four days away and we're sure like us, you just can't wait. With this being a huge event in the history of the Xtreme Wrestling Alliance, we here at XWABACKSTAGE.net are doing a very first for us here, we're opening a competition, all you have to do is send in your answers to us and the one who answers the most correctly will receive a late Christmas present, but please bare in mind we do not even know the answers so this cannot be fixed, good luck;

1. Who will walk away with the XWA Universal Championship?

2. Who will be crowned the first Television Champion?

3. Who will capture the Universal Tag Team Championships?

4. Who will the mystery man (or men) be at Xtreme Revolution?

5. Which XWA superstar is Chris Kanyon going to call out?

Please feel free to leave your general thoughts on the XWA also.

1. Who will walk away with the XWA Universal Championship?

Hmmm.....Steve Corino is likely to be the obvious choice. Great in-ring skills, awesome on the mic. But its too obvious. He can be the man to build your company around, but he doesnt need the belt to do it. Credible would be nice, he's repayed Heyman's faith before. But I think Bernard should and will take it. Something original, and whoever topples Bernard eventually will have one hell of a task at hand. So Giant Bernard is my pick.

2. Who will be crowned the first Television Champion?

Perry Saturn. You know Im a Saturn mark, and out of the other guys....well....Saturn is legit!

3. Who will capture the Universal Tag Team Championships?

Hmmmm......tough one to call. Turkay and Burke are a new, fresh, upcoming tandem and could grow with a title run. But I see Heyman keeping faith with his ECW contingent of Doring and Roadkill. They will walk out victorious.

4. Who will the mystery man (or men) be at Xtreme Revolution?

DAMNIT! I remember you telling me this, but I completely forgot. Lol. Ive got about 3 or 4 names in my head right now.....lol. Im gonna go with Vampiro. I reckon Vampiro will turn up, and go after Saturn.

5. Which XWA superstar is Chris Kanyon going to call out?

Im trying to think who Kanyon has a past with, and for the life of me I cant see anyone. But a Kanyon/Corino feud would own, so I say he will screw Corino.

Looking forward to the show man. Good luck.

The Liacouras Center, Philadelphia PA, January 6th 2007

Thanks to Robert Newman for the following results;

Claudio Castagnoli vs. Donovan Morgan vs. Julio Dinero vs. Kevin Steen; I was pretty glad in the end i got here early, as the Center was about a quarter full in honesty, these four guys made their way to the ring. As the arena was beginning to fill out these guys were putting on a pretty solid match, don't have a clue why Kevin Steen was here, didn't know he was signed? Morgan looked pretty impressive, he hasn't competed in sometime and still a few days earlier he was ranked at 14 in the Top 100 wrestlers of the year, Heyman may be on to a winner with him. Castagnoli was playing a face role, he hyped the crowd and that was who the crowd were hot for, Dinero also looked impressive. All the guys apart from Steen got a near fall in this match. The highlight was a pretty high impact Sayanoura (spinning Pedigree) by Morgan on Dinero, Double C split the fall up, when the arena was basically full. Castagnoli took advantage of Steen after Dinero hit a Superkick on him but afterwards was taken over the rope by Morgan who went over with him. Castagnoli slid under the bottom rope from the outside, lifted Steen and hit a Ricola Bomb for the victory, after the match Morgan and Castangnoli had a stare down before leaving. Claudio Castagnoli bt. Kevin Steen via The Ricola Bomb at 6:03.

- After the match, Heyman made his way down to the ring causing the crowd to go crazy, you should of heard the women next to me! An XWA chant was started as Heyman made his way to the announcers table with Joey Styles. Heyman stood on the table with his arms raised and the XWA chant became deafening, the Center was used the same as how the basketball games are set up, not all the arena was being used. What was, seemed pretty full, a good response to Heyman's latest creation, a F*ck WWE and TNA chant was started, Sonny Siaki then entered down the small ramp way receiving a lot of heat.

C.W Anderson vs. Sonny Siaki; Sonny Siaki started the event in the ring, Anderson then entered the complex, he hyped the crowd as he walked down the ramp. He rolled under the bottom rope and Siaki soon walked up to him and delivered a right hand and the match was started. Siaki dominated the early goings, at one point even spitting on a fallen Anderson. Anderson then reversed a suplex and the match became more even, both exchanging near falls. The two seemed to work well in the ring and the reaction to it was pretty good considering it was the opening match, the crowd were hyped for Anderson and Siaki played the heel role well. The turning point in the match came when Anderson reversed The Samoan Pop, climbing over Siaki's shoulders and clubbed him from behind with a huge right hand, he picked up a fallen Siaki and delivered a Spinebuster in the middle of the ring to claim the first ever victory in XWA, as Anderson left the ring, Siaki pulled himself up via the top rope and talked trashed to Anderson who left with his arms raised. C.W Anderson bt. Sonny Siaki via a Spinebuster at 7:51

- The lights then went off, the crowd at first thought the mystery signing that Paul Heyman had made was entering the arena but it soon became apparent, Chris Kanyon was the man entering the building. The crowd were hyped for the former WCW superstar. It wasn't the usual Kanyon we'd expect to be here, Kanyon walked down the ramp slow with his head down, his hair seemed pretty scruffy, he wore all black clothes. Kanyon carried a skull with hair? Down the ramp with him, as he entered the ring under the bottom rope and looked up for the first time, his eyes seemed to be black? He received a microphone and cut a solid promo. Kanyon, an XWA exclusive, seemed to playing a darker character and seemed to be in a heel role? Not what i was expecting. The crowd then found out who Chris Kanyon was calling out, Steve Corino! He said and i quote, "I'm going to rip The King Of Old School apart and then move on to whoever wins the Universal Championship!" He said he hoped Corino won the title so he could kill two birds with one stone before Corino took all he could take. Corino appeared, laughing at the top of the ramp way, he told Kanyon he was washed up and way in over his head, the continued throwing insults before Heyman jumped up from the announcers table and announced a match for XWA's next event, he said if Corino wins the title tonight then the title will be on the line. Kanyon versus Steve Corino, First Blood match! The crowd went crazy as Kanyon smiled up at Corino who smirked down at Kanyon, the two then left.

Colt Cabana vs. Yoshihiro Tajiri; Both men entered the building to a good reaction, you have to say with all the talent of the roster, Tajiri maybe the biggest name on it. The crowd seemed pretty hyped for this match with a Let's Go Cabana and Let's Go Tajiri chant started as the two stared at each other. The match was pretty even Cabana tried to slow down Tajiri with vicious right hands and stretched Tajiri with an Armbar, Cabana even ducked the green mist towards the end of the match! Cabana seemed to have most of the momentum in the match and soon became the fans choice to win the match, in a way could class it as an upset? But Tajiri then dominated the match for a while after moving out the way of a second rope leg drop by Cabana and he took advantage of the situation by throwing Cabana in the corner and stretching him with The Tarantula, which received a good reaction, he then got a near fall after that. Cabana battled back and the two exchanged blows, again, these two seemed to work pretty well together. The end of the match saw Tajiri hit a vicious standing kick to head of Cabana, Cabana dropped to his knees and Tajiri delivered another one before picking up the three. Tajiri celebrated on the top rope hyping the crowd again, Cabana got to his feet and stood behind Tajiri, as Tajiri turned, the two shook hands and left the ring together. Yoshihiro Tajiri bt. Colt Cabana via a Buzzsaw Kick at 8:28

- Via a small screen above the entranceway, cameras backstage played images of Giant Bernard punching and kicking a bag backstage. Scott Hudson then entered the picture to get some words from 'The Train Wreck' Giant Bernard. Bernard ripped into both Justin Credible and Steve Corino. He promised he'd win the Universal Championship for the people but more importantly himself, he then went on to say he respected Paul Heyman more then anybody for giving him this chance and he wouldn't let Heyman down. He added if the people wanted to see real destruction and genuine pain, do not miss the main event because they haven’t seen nothing.

XWA Universal Tag Team Championships - Danny Doring & Roadkill vs. Samuel Burke & Terkay; Burke and Terkay entered first, both wearing blacked out tracksuits, Burke seemed his usual cocky self, myself i think these two could be the signings that no one talks about but will prove their worth. Terkay seemed emotionless as he followed Burke down the ramp way. Burke got on the mic and asked the crowd if they were ready for the XWA Experience before Doring and Roadkill interrupted at the top of the ramp way with a mic in hand. Doring told Burke and Terkay that the fans wanted them as champions and that they were the last ever ECW champions before sprinting down to the ring, the bell sounded and a four man brawl was underway, Doring and Terkay brawled outside and Burke tried a quick pin and grabbed a handful of the tights on Roadkill but still only got a one count. Roadkill started beating down Burke as Doring and Terkay made it to their corners for the first time. Solid blows to the head caused Burke to be busted open early on. Roadkill and Doring you could tell were the more experienced tag team, tagging regularly and concentrating on Burke leaving The Man Bear outside. Terkay became inpatient and attacked Roadkill from behind, another brawl started and Terkay threw Doring over the top rope and hit a huge belly to belly on Roadkill, he dragged Burke to the corner and tagged himself in, hitting another huge suplex on Roadkill before Doring took him out from behind, Doring and Terkay then went at it. Both exchanging near falls. Terkay hit a Jackhammer like move and Doring hit his finisher, The Wham, Bam, Thank You Ma'am but Burke broke up the count. Another four-man brawl started and as the ref tried to break up Roadkill and the bloodied Burke outside, Terkay hit Doring with a chair busting him open! Terkay moved quickly to get that chair from the outside as the refs back was turned. Doring laid on his back as Terkay brought him to his feet. Burke threw Roadkill into the steel steps and began stomping him, whilst in the ring Terkay hit a huge Musclebusta to get the three! Terkay captured the titles for himself and Burke! A very solid enjoyable match and blood for the first time in XWA! The crowd booed Burke and Terkay heavily as they left, Doring shouted trash up at them as they laughed at the fallen men in the ring and the outside. Terkay bt. Danny Doring via the Musclebusta at 15:22 NEW TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS

- Paul Heyman left the announcers table and got in the ring! I was going crazy like the women next to me, again, haha. Heyman explained that the XWA was his new baby, his new life! Vince McMahon ruined his last and it wouldn't happen again. Heyman explained most of his signings came through nothing but pure hate and misused talent of Vince McMahon so he could show Vince how it should be done. Heyman then announced February Third as the XWA's next event, again it would be here at The Liacouras Center. The event would be called, XWA War Of The Worlds and already Steve Corino versus Chris Kanyon will be taking place at W.O.T.W. Heyman said things are going to be different after that as XWA would be going on a weekly Pay Per View show! Wow! More details will be giving during the next month.

XWA Television Championship - Bobby Roode vs. Chris Hero vs. Perry Saturn; Saturn was playing a bad ass role, he seemed very focused and got a good reaction like Chris Hero, Bobby Roode came down to the ring in all his Canada gear, singing the anthem as he slowly walked, SERIOUS HEAT for Bobby Roode and much to the crowds delight, including mine, Perry Saturn kicked his ass! Not even giving him a chance to remove his jacket. Hero and Saturn then brawled, the announcer couldn't even say the match was for the TV title. Saturn dominated both of the men before flipping his finger at Bobby Roode! Saturn hit a spinebuster and got a near fall on the Canadian before Hero split the count up. Hero then showed a little bit of dominance taking out Saturn and Roode as they brawled outside throwing himself over the top rope! Hero chucked Saturn into the steel steps before hitting a huge DDT onto Roode on the outside! Hero got Roode into the ring but only got a two count. Saturn recovered and Hero and him again started brawling, Saturn ducked a right from Hero and went under his arm, he spun Hero round delivered a boot to the gut and hit him with the Three Wheeled Moss Covered Family Credunza! Is that correct? Anyway, a spinning fisherman suplex. He then locked in the rings of Saturn on Hero! He was ready to tap before Roode stamped on the head of Saturn. Roode started delivering blows to Saturn before chucking him over the top rope, he covered Hero but only a two. Saturn attempted to attack Roode from behind but was spotted, Roode ducked a clothesline and hit a neckbreaker to get a one count on Saturn. He then began to stomp on both of them. Roode posed with his hand on his heart generating heat from the crowd. He walked to the corner and stalked Hero as he got to his feet, he started running and hit a huge Lariat on Hero, Roode screamed as Hero hit the mat but from behind this time Saturn does hit Roode with the clothesline. Saturn picked up Roode and hit a Death Valley Driver, just when I'm beginning to think Saturn will be the first TV champ, the mystery superstar arrives, Vampiro! He entered via the crowd, jumping over the metal guard railings he slid into the ring as Saturn turned round he was met with a kick to the gut and The Nail In The Coffin. Vampiro looks down on Saturn before leaving, the crowd boo as Bobby Roode slings his arm over Saturn and becomes the first Television Champion of the XWA! What a match! Perry Saturn is gonna be so pissed! All three men laid out in the ring for a few seconds before leaving to the back, Roode posed at the top of the ramp with his title for a while. Bobby Roode bt. Perry Saturn via interference from Vampiro at 20:40 NEW TELEVISION CHAMPION

Cage Match - XWA Universal Championship - Giant Bernard vs. Justin Credible vs. Steve Corino; The cage that has been hovering above the ring all night is eventually lowered, man I'm so hyped right now. Heyman is going pretty crazy with Joey Styles right now aswell. An XWA chant is started before Justin Credible, Giant Bernard and Steve Corino make their way down to the ring. The three stand in opposite corners as referee, Billy Silverman holds the championship above his head outside the cage. The bell is rung and a three way brawl starts the match, the crowd is hyped, certainly the loudest it's been all night. Bernard hits a big boot on Credible before being school boyed by Corino but he kicked out at one. Bernard and Corino start brawling and Bernard sends Corino head first into the steel before Credible comes from behind and does the same to Giant Bernard, Near fall on Corino by Credible. Left and rights delivered to Corino by Credible then Credible had his head almost taken off as Giant B came from no where with a kick to the face again. Bernard screamed out as he started clubbing the back of Corino as Credible laid on the mat holding his jaw, Credible's mouth is bleeding! Baldo Bomb! Bernard hit his trademark but only gets a two as Corino gets the shoulders up in time. Bernard then changes focus to Credible. Blood continues to pour from the bottom lip. Justin Credible fights back still, exchanging left and rights before a kick to the stomach and a DDT gives Credible the advantage. A little bit of revenge is then had, Credible picks up Bernard and scrapes his head along the steel, busting him open! Blood begins trickling down the forehead of Giant B before an XWA chant is started and Corino attacks Credible from behind. It then dawned on me, Credible and Bernard have a history together in X-Factor in the WWF, totally forgot about that. Corino then takes it to Credible, getting a near fall after an Old School Suplex but Credible got the shoulder up. Bernard was then up and all three men again exchanged blows, really solid match. Corino is then bust open after having his head drove into the steel cage by Bernard, all three men are bleeding! Giant Bernard attacks Credible, right hand followed by another, Corino then attacked Bernard taking him down with a block to the knee, Credible crawls to the corner. Corino locks in a Cobra Clutch Sleeper on Giant Bernard, Credible can do nothing but watch, Corino wears down Bernard, he releases the hold and raises his arms but Justin Credible got up, as Corino turned he was met with a Super Kick, Credible dropped to his knees after and had to drag himself to the door, Billy Silverman opened the door and Justin Credible fell out! Justin Credible is the first XWA UNIVERSAL CHAMPION! Credible holds the belt tight to his chest as he sits up against the railings, Corino holds his jaw looking on at a fallen Justin Credible, Giant Bernard shouts at Justin Credible and that was the end of the XWA's first event. Justin Credible escapes the Cage after 25:51 NEW UNIVERSAL CHAMPION

- WOW! What an event Xtreme Revolution truly was. I wasn't there personally but I'm told it really was quite a show. Here are a few extra details about the event; the dark match as such wasn't booked until an hour before the event started. The event was attended by 2,285 people, all were very hyped. The win for Justin Credible went down well, Roode claiming the Television Championship came as a surprise to some, the descion was Heyman's, Roode got a lot of heat and may well turn out to be a major part of the company. Vampiro got a good reaction but debuted as a heel. Joey Styles and Heyman signed autographs after the event as they left the announcers table.

- The First Blood match between Kanyon and Corino that was announced has been changed, details are below.

- War Of The Worlds was announced as the next event for the Xtreme Wrestling Alliance, again the event will be at The Liacouras Center, the event will take place on Saturday February Third. Already the following has been posted for the event on the XWA website;

XWA Universal Championship - First Blood Match

Giant Bernard vs. Justin Credible ©

At Xtreme Revolution, Giant Bernard and Justin Credible were both busted open in a brutal Cage match that witnessed Justin Credible being crowned as the first ever XWA Universal Champion. With that in mind, Paul Heyman has confirmed that Justin Credible and Giant Bernard will go one on one in a First Blood match at War Of The Worlds! Justin Credible may find himself on a very short reign as champion, Giant Bernard screamed up at a bloodied Credible at Xtreme Revolution and you will witness the first meeting of the former tag partners at this event! Giant Bernard remains focused and rumours circulate of him having a huge tantrum after not claiming the prize backstage at The Liacouras Center at Xtreme Revolution, Will it be another kick by Bernard to Credible that claims the prize this time? Or will Justin Credible open Bernard up with a his Super Kick? Justin Credible's first defence promises to be a very interesting one.

Falls Count Anywhere

Chris Kanyon vs. Steve Corino

Chris Kanyon didn't compete at Xtreme Revolution so War Of The Worlds will witness the debut of the now, much darker much more focused Kanyon. Kanyon announced his challenge to Steve Corino at the beginning of Xtreme Revolution, a challenge that Corino laughed at! Paul Heyman then got involved and announced the match, leaving a stare down between the two, things will be witnessed at this event that may not to be pretty and my guess, this one is going to be the ugliest. Corino failed in capturing the XWA Universal Championship at Xtreme Revolution but a win over Kanyon will put him straight back into the hunt and win for Kanyon doing the same for him, this match could be brutal, don't miss it!

January 11th 2007

- Paul Heyman in the last four days has been a very busy man, Heyman has continued to add to the roster after he announced the weekly pay per view, again he's raided released WWE talent and former ECW stars have been signed. Al Snow, Dawn Marie, Kid Kash, Mike Kruel, Sean Morley and Tony Mamaluke have been added to the roster page. The release of Sean Morley aka Val Venis happened less then twenty-four hours ago and it is believed he is now the highest paid star on the roster, it is believed Perry Saturn and Al Snow are second and third. It is not known if these new signings will be appearing until the weekly shows begin.

January 13th 2007

- Billy Kidman has returned to wrestling and will be appearing in the Xtreme Wrestling Alliance! More details will be released as we get them.

January 17th 2007

- It is believed by us here at XWABACKSTAGE.net that Kidman will be appearing at War Of The Worlds. Kidman won't be the only one making his debut at this event. The debut of recently released WWE superstar and former ECW star, Tony Mamaluke will be making his debut at the event. Details are listed below;

wotw4.gif

Donovan Morgan vs. Tony Mamaluke

Donovan Morgan was impressive in a match that took place before Xtreme Revolution and his reward his a match with debuting XWA member, Tony Mamaluke. Mamaluke holds an impressive record competing in many companies over the years, it is believed Mamaluke has come to the XWA to in his own words, "bring back his dignity" Mamaluke wasn't used well by the WWE and see's the XWA as a fresh start, but Donovan Morgan may well stop him taking a victory, 'Wrestling-Personified' Donovan Morgan looks to claim his first victory within the company.

- Rumours continue to circulate around the Internet about a possible deal being struck with Bravo earlier then expected, Heyman announced at Xtreme Revolution that a weekly pay-per-view show will be starting but Bravo seem to be keen on a late night spot for Paul Heyman's company, nothing is known about if this is true, but good things maybe coming early for the Xtreme Wrestling Alliance, we have our fingers crossed.

January 18th 2007

- This time, unlike before Xtreme Revolution, a match has been announced to be taking place before the event is meant to start. Sonny Siaki, Mike Kruel and Julio Dinero will square off in a triple threat match, the match will see the debut of both Dinero and Kruel, Heyman is apparently keen on the image of Mike Kruel. He was apart of a stable in OVW and came with good words from Joey Styles who witnessed Kruel a few times at ECW events the WWE were promoting.

- Ladies and Gentleman, my god, Paul Heyman has really done it this time, Don Callis is back working with Paul Heyman! Callis will not be appearing at War Of The Worlds, but we can exclusively reveal details of the signing. Callis is set to return as the heel staff member, which suggests a deal with Bravo maybe close. It is believed at this moment in time, Callis may work some kind of angle with Giant Bernard. It is now believed Paul Heyman, Don Callis and Ted DiBiase are the booking committee of the company. DiBiase was recently signed as a Road Agent by Heyman after his release from the WWE.

January 20th 2007

- Two more matches have been confirmed for War Of The Worlds, one will witness a huge Elimination Four-Way and more debuts of superstars! More details are below;

WOTW3.gif

Alex Shelley vs. CW Anderson vs. Kid Kash vs. Yoshihiro Tajiri

In a four way that promises to be very interesting, the eventual winner of this Elimination like match will see the winner choose a title shot of his choosing on the first weekly event of the Xtreme Wrestling Revolution. The match will see the debut of Alex Shelley and former ECW Heavyweight Champion, Kid Kash. Also added to the mix are CW Anderson and Tajiri who are in the match after gaining victories of the first event of the company. The winner of this match will send a clear message to the rest of the company, and for all we know, one of these four men could be the next Universal Champion.

SAMUEL BURKE, TERKAY and VAMPIRO vs. DANNY DORING, PERRY SATURN and ROADKILL

At Xtreme Revolution we witnessed Vampiro cost Perry Saturn the XWA Television Championship and we could witness Saturn regain a piece of revenge as he teams with Danny Doring and Roadkill to take on XWA Universal Tag Team Champions Samuel Burke and Terkay and the man himself, Vampiro. This promises to be one hell of a six man tag match and with Burke and Terkay rubbing salt in the wounds after claiming their gold at Xtreme Revolution, Doring and Roadkill are also seeking revenge. You don't want to miss this one.

- It is believed Al Snow has been helping Heyman with training routines for certain guys within the XWA. It is believed Snow has been working with Kevin Steen, Julio Dinero, Donovan Morgan and Mike Kruel. It is also believed Matt Morgan has been training with these guys also, it is not known if he will be appearing at XWA events.

- A1, Gangrel and Matt Striker have all been added to the roster page on the XWA website. More details are set to be released.

January 24th 2007

- XWA have released the final match up for War Of The Worlds;

WOTF5.gif

Cade and Murdoch vs. Kings Of Wrestling

On the same day that saw Cade and Murdoch added to the roster page, they've been added to the War Of The Worlds card. The former WWE Tag Team Champions will go toe to toe with the now reunited, Kings Of Wrestling. Hero and Castagnoli are former CZW Tag Team Champions and this tag team match promises to be one to remember. Hero left Xtreme Revolution strapless so looks to get back to winning ways, and what better way to do it then claiming the W over arguably the biggest tag team in the Xtreme Wrestling Alliance.

January 25th 2007

- War Of The Worlds has been finalized and the card is as follows, this also includes details of other appearances;

- The signing of A1, Gangrel and Matt Striker are indeed the final signings Paul Heyman will be making as of this moment in time, details of the XWA were released again on a TalkAnythingWrestling.com radio show, Heyman and Callis appeared on a segment for about twenty minutes, full details of the Interview are below;

Heyman claimed the costs of the company were a lot more then he expected, when questioned if he'd be on the ECW budget soon, Heyman laughed and said wouldn't that be interesting.

Paul Heyman said that he was very happy with his roster and that is why he wouldn't be adding to it anymore. Details were released about Al Snow and Bill Demott running a development camp. Wrestlers who have been working with the two former Tough Enough trainers are, A1, Julio Dinero, Mike Kruel and Matt Striker will be some of the guys starting there, Heyman said Striker would have an impact when he will debut, it isn't known when any of these guys will be used regularly.

Don Callis was 'delighted' to be back in wrestling and liked the feel of what Heyman had started, 'I'd be a fool to miss it' he said. Callis had no comment when questioned about the possible angle with Giant Bernard that has been circulating, he just told people to turn up to the events and see what happened.

Callis then revealed, James Mitchell, Dawn Marie and Simon Diamond would be appearing as the 'valets' of XWA superstars, these would be the only managers signed at this point as well, with Callis also apparently going to be in that role also they said they were covered in that department. James Mitchell will most likely play a role with Vampiro.

Heyman said that a stable would be taking shape at War Of The Worlds no other details were given.

Both Heyman and Callis hyped the card and said how pleased they were with Justin Credible, Donovon Morgan and Giant Bernard.

When asked about the possible deal with Bravo being struck early, Heyman laughed and said we'll have to wait and see. Heyman said he was about 50/50 about it but he had spoken to Bravo officials who had representation at Xtreme Revolution, they went away pleased with what they saw.
