CC8 Qualifier
Dylan Roberts vs. Jiggy Walker
A Crazy Cruiser-8 place is at stake in this first ever one on one match!
Walker, a semi-finalist last year looks to change his fortune in 2009 by reaching the final 8 for the second year in succession. He'll have to put the bitter defeat last month to former partner Danny Hope behind him, as standing in his way is a man desperately hungry for gold.
Roberts recently formed a partnership with the equally hungry Si Valour and made a bid for the tag team trophy. Despite running champions Paradise Lost close, Roberts & Valour came out of the match empty handed. Roberts now has his sights set on the CC8 trophy and has drawn Jiggy Walker in the tournaments only one on one qualifying match. Leaving his partner, to take his chances in the Last Chance Battle Royal. Can Roberts qualify for the tournament for the very first time?
Or can Walker make it 2 in 2?
One On One
Danny Hope vs. Cameron Kraze
Cameron Kraze returns to GPW for Friday Night Thriller III to challenge quite possibly the hottest superstar on the roster.
Fresh off the back of the biggest win of his life in the main event at "Truth & Consequences" vs. former tag team partner Jiggy Walker, Hope has accepted Kraze's challenge as he looks to finish his 2009 in style.
Kraze was unsuccessful in his bid for victory in his debut match against "Super" Sam Bailey back in July, and wants to notch up the first win of his GPW career by knocking off a former GPW tag team champion. Can Danny continue his momentum, or can Kraze stop him in his tracks and make a name for himself on the roster?
Last Chance Battle Royal
This every man for himself over the top rope Battle Royal will be all the CC8 hopefuls last possible chance to qualify for the prestigious 8th spot in the tournament. Previously failed participants will be allowed one last chance in this match, and wrestlers who entered the tournament qualifiers but were not drawn in a match will also have their chance. 10 men, 1 last spot. Who will it be?
Dangerous Damon Leigh "Chasing The Dream" Interview
Last month, "Dangerous" Damon Leigh defeated Dirk Feelgood to become the No.1 Contender to Juggernaut's Heavyweight Title.
But that's only half the story. The real story here is that DDL, an 8 year veteran and one of the GPW original roster members will get the first ever shot in his career at a Heavyweight title. DDL has held the GPW British title a record 4 times and held the Tag Team Trophy with Joey Hayes as part of the Young Offenders, but the Heavyweight title has always eluded him.
In his 8 year career, Damon has competed for major companies all over the UK, Germany and Holland leaving with MOTN and MOTY calibre matches. Wherever Damon has been he has carved a reputation as being one of the most versatile and respected wrestlers on the roster. High flying, strong style, tag teams, multi-mans, British style - you name it, DDL can do it. Intense, professional, agile, creative, strong and hard working are just some of the many words that have been used to describe Damon. He has long been an ambassador for Garage Pro Wrestling, wrestling in the North of England and wrestling in this country, but despite all his accolades there has been one title that has escaped him - the Heavyweight title.
Having held the two other major championships at GPW he aims to not only become the Heavyweight Champion for the first time, but he also has his sights set on becoming only the second superstar in GPW history to do the "triple crown". Heresy became the first earlier this year after he winning the tag team trophy with Kastor LeVay. GPW's Sam Shaw will get inside the mind of DDL at "Friday Night Thriller III" as he prepares to take on reigning champion, Juggernaut. Do not miss this exclusive interview as DDL chases a dream!
GPW British Title vs. CC8 Spot - Winner Takes All Main Event
"Super" Sam Bailey © vs. Juice
A feud that has entertained, thrilled and captivated fans since the very start of the year is set to climax in the main event of Friday Night Thriller. The reigning GPW British Champion "Super" Sam Bailey puts his title on the line for the second time against the No.1 Contender and reigning CC8 Champion - Juice.
The two fought to a fascinating 20 minute time limit draw back at April's "SlamJam" event but with no clear winner, the two will face each other once again. However, this time there is more than just the British Title on the line...! Bailey narrowly missed on a seeded place for automatic qualification into the CC8 tournament this year, whereas Juice was the top seed and qualified immediately. "Super" Sam has challenged The Juice to his spot in the tournament in a true winner takes all main event match.
Should Bailey retain, he'll not only keep the British Title but he'll also gain qualification into the CC8. If Juice should win, he'll keep his top seeded place into the CC8 but will also be crowned the British Champion. The winner will take everything, the loser will be left with nothing!
The Juice is into a 13 month undefeated streak, can Bailey bring this streak to an end? Can he do what no man has been able to do in singles competition over the last 13 months? Or can Juice continue his impressive undefeated streak, and go into the CC8 Tournament as still the undefeated reigning CC8 champion AND the British Champion? One thing is for sure, he wont be alone. His hand picked team of personal trainers and dietitions have worked all year training Juice for this and they will be ever present at ringside. There are so many intriguing questions that stem from this match, this will truly be a main event for the ages. Don't miss it!
