FATAL FOUR-WAYS HIGHLIGHT 1PW’S “NO TURNING BACK” WEEKEND
15 days and counting until 1PW welcomes its fans to the Dome in Doncaster, South Yorkshire for a very full weekend of the most exciting pro wrestling action to ever hit the UK. 1PW presents NO TURNING BACK on Friday January 6th and Saturday January 7th, 2006 and highlights each night’s event with a Fatal 4-way match that fans won’t forgive themselves for missing.
On Friday night, 3-time former NWA World champion AJ STYLES, former ROH World champion SAMOA JOE, 2-time former WWE World Tag Team champion CHARLIE HAAS and former TNA X Division champion CHRISTOPHER DANIELS go toe-to-toe with glory on the line.
It’s no secret that Joe, AJ, and Daniels have been heated rivals for many many months. Joe recently defeated AJ in a grueling match to capture the TNA X Division Title, just one month removed from Joe’s vicious assault on Daniels, which left the Fallen Angel bloodied and concussed. Now, both AJ and Daniels are after Joe for not only title aspirations, but due to personal vendettas as well. Furthermore, who could forget the classic matches AJ and Daniels had against each other all over the world over the past 3 years? Factor in another natural athlete and skilled tactician, Charlie Haas, as the unknown “x-factor” to this equation and you have all the elements of what is sure to be an unforgettable encounter when these 4 forces are together in the ring at the same time.
Then, on Saturday night, its a clash of the super-juniors when former ECW World champion JERRY LYNN, former TNA X Division champ PETEY WILLIAMS, JONNY STORM and JODY FLEISCH square off. There will be as much action in the air as there is on the mat when these four collide.
In stark contrast to the aforementioned 4-way, these individuals have kept their battles more about athletic competition than titles, ego, or grudges. Lynn and Storm have amazed fans on both sides of the Atlantic with their encounters, meanwhile Storm & Fleisch’s past battles significantly upped both men’s notoriety, and the mutual respect both men gained from it allowed them to become successful tag partners as well. Then there’s the incredible ability and elitist attitude of Petey Williams, who believes the British are just like Americans: inferior to all who are Canadian. These four are sure to deliver a classic as well, with major home-country pride and potential championship aspirations on the minds of all four men.
Those matches make up just part of the exciting shows for NTB which will include the complete Qualifying Round for the 1PW World Title tournament, several hotly-contested grudge matches and the appearance of legendary 7-time World Champion BRET “THE HITMAN” HART.
