April 16th: Last night’s CZW show featured a wild brawl that some are calling one of the greatest matches in CZW history as BJ Whitmer & Kevin Steen took on Necro Butcher & Super Dragon. Things are bound to get even more wild and violent this Saturday at the National Guard Armory, which is just 20 minutes up I-95 from the former ECW Arena, when Whitmer teams with Samoa Joe & Adam Pearce to take on the CZW team of Chris Hero, Necro Butcher & Super Dragon. There will be no rules in this one. There will also be two refs, one from each ROH and CZW, to insure the fall is counted fairly. The only job of the refs will be to count the fall as all hell will break loose when these two teams collide.

April 17th: Colt Cabana has been studying the European style of wrestling in preparation for his World Title Match this Saturday in Philadelphia against Bryan Danielson. Cabana hasn’t been able to showcase his wrestling roots in recent months due to his violent feud against Homicide. Cabana, who is already an expert in the European style, has been searching for any trick that can get him the three count and the World Title. Cabana has proven to be very skilled at roll-ups and it only takes three seconds for the World Title to switch hands. This looks to be a wrestling clinic.
