1- NEWS

We are just getting started, so the in-character news will revolve around signings and what
not. Normally that will be found at the following page of the league website...

2- OOC INFORMATION
=====================
Hey all!

Very excited about this UPW revival! If you have read the FAQ (and you should as some things
are different this time around) you will know that we are NOT doing roleplay/flash packets for
the TV shows, but rather putting everything on the show live. That means the shows will read a
little differently than previous run did, but it makes things a little more realistic.

I will try to use the yahoo group to mail stuff out, but the process of signing up for the
group forces people to create yahoo IDs, and many have moved away from that service in recent
years. To that end, we have created the OOC Forum (link is on the website and listed at end of
this update). This is not for roleplaying or etc, but for community building and to have a
place to release show links and etc. If you haven't signed up (and most of you have not), I
highly suggest you get signed up for the forum.

I have a Vice President this run as well. He will be helping me out in creative, booking, match
writing, and etc. His name is Keegan Carrahar and his contact information is also at the end of
this update. Keegan is an angle fed veteran and a great mind. We have hosted some e-w podcasts
together in years past, as well as handling in a few feds together. He has been in the hobby
for quite some time and will be available to discuss things as I will.

The roster remains open for new signings. I have a "cut off" number, but we aren't near that
yet. We have tons of space for tag teams, so please share the link to the website and talk
about it with others.

That is all OOC from me right now...

3- SHOWDOWN LINE-UP
=====================
UPW PRESENTS...

SHOWDOWN 9!!!

TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 2018

LIVE!!! from Hinkle Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, IN

------------
DARK MATCHES
------------

"The Human Heart Attack" Johnny Psychotic -VS- "Good" Gordon Gaines

Luscious Jasmine -VS- Tripp Skylark

--------------
ON-AIR MATCHES
--------------

Colm Larsen -VS- Windham Brody

NOTES: In the first match of the new UPE era, Windham Brody (who was the final TV Champion
from the last edition of UPW) looks to carry the momentum from the last run into this new
chapter. His first step to reclaiming the TV belt is by taking on a relative rookie in Colm
Larsen! Larsen has a background in MMA, but will it translate to the squared circle? Many have
struggled with such a move between the disciplines, and a test like the massive Brody could be
the measuring stick for this Danish star.


[UPW WORLD TITLE QUALIFYING MATCH!]

Yancy Kilpatrick -VS- Michael Wilson

NOTES: In the first match to determine who will eventually become the UPW's next World
Champion, two veterans collide! 2-time SWF World Champion, Yancy Kilpatrick returns to the ring
and battles former (and still record-holding longest) CWF World Champion, Michael Wilson. One
of these men will take a step toward a possible World Title reign years after their last one.


Turner & Hooch -VS- The Gentrifiers

NOTES: Turner & Hooch are a couple of fun-loving guys and the fans love them to death. These
two always bring excitement and that makes them a perfect team to have in the first tag team
match of the revived UPW. Their opponents are a fearsome pair from Chicago, Illinois, known as
the Gentrifiers. This tag team, made up of "Gray Bear" Greg Johnson and "Grizzley" Pete Olsen
may not have the fluid teamwork other teams have, but they make up for it with ruthless
aggression.


"Jammin'" Jimmy Gibson -VS- Billy "The Regulator" James

NOTES: Fresh off an extended tour of Japan, Gibson enters UPW with a lot of fanfare and
excitement surrounding him. The former Second City Champion has been out of the American
spotlight, but looks to return to form as he will be taking on Billy James! James actually had
a bit of a win streak when UPW ended in 2017 and perhaps he isn't the pushover many felt he was
a few years ago. This promises to be an excellent starting point for the fans of UPW!


[UPW WORLD TITLE QUALIFYING MATCH!]

"Jester" Chad Allen -VS- "Sadistic Insanity" Damian Payne

NOTES: Two more veterans of the wrestling ring will do battle for another step toward UPW
World Title glory as Chad Allen, the evil clown of wrestling, looks to cut down former ICWF
WOrld Champion Damian Payne. Both of these men have rugged reputations and have waged wars in
the ring for decades. One of them will emerge with a stronger chance of becoming UPW World
Champion. Allen will have his partner in crime, Iris Galiver, at his side as usual. Will that
be enough to tip the scales in his favor?


[MAIN EVENT!!!]

"Conceited Bastard" Chase Williams -VS- Caleb Foley

NOTES: If two men could be considered star-crossed to meet and do battle, it is WIlliams and
Foley. From PVW to SCWE to UPW, they have a rivalry that is nothing short of dynamic and
legendary. What better way to kick off UPW's revival than to have one of the most heated
rivalries take center stage in the main event. Williams has a decided size advantage, but "Da
King of the Gingers: is as scrappy as they come and not one to back down. The only thing on the
line is pride as these two men cap off the night head-to-head with yet another chapter in this
storied match-up!



*PLUS! Announcement of plans for World Heavyweight Championship and how it will be crowned at
Collision Course! All LIVE on Showdown!
