1PW: Jan 4th Newsline

6’6” TEUTONIC GIANT TAKES FINAL SPOT IN WORLD TITLE TOURNAMENT
1PW Newsline is incredibly pleased to announce that the final spot in the 1PW World Title tournament’s qualifying round has been filled by none other than ULF HERMAN. Herman, perhaps best known internationally for a stint in ECW, has remained active and successful in recent years winning a number of heavyweight and tag team championships across the UK and Europe. The 39-year old native of Hanover, Germany will face STERLING JAMES KEENAN this Friday night at the Dome in Doncaster, South Yorkshire with an eye on advancing to March 4th’s official First Round.

In addition, Herman will step into 1PW’s ring on Saturday night for a one-on-one encounter with Keenan’s evil pet, the 6’8″ ABYSS. How will the German Giant handle the onslaught of the monster American? Neither of these 300 plus pound beasts is afraid to get hardcore. Will 1PW Officials allow this match to get out of control?
