Winnipeg, Mb - The list of world-class competitors for Premier Cup 2005: X-Raided is almost complete! The next five of the tournament's Super Seven Participants were finally determined this past Thursday Night at Premier Championship Wrestling's live event at Manitoba's home of sports entertainment, the LID Nightclub!
In the first qualifying match of the night, PCW Canadian Champion Antonio Scorpio Jr overcame a valient fight from popular 'Diehard' Greg Romijn to advance to the tournament on June 2nd!
The first bonafide upset occured when young Cisco Satanico shocked current PCW Tag Team Champion and former PCW Heavyweight Champion Rawskillz!
Skillz was so irate following the stunning outcome that he assaulted senior PCW official Christopher Marxwell.
Former PCW Tag Team & Canadian Champion Chris Raine made a successful return from a serious knee injury as he defeated 'Priceless' Chad Tatum in a spectacular match!
In the swerve of the year, former PCW Heavyweight Champion 'Showtime' Robby Royce defeated current PCW Tag Team Champion 'Vicious' Donny Dicaprio in 20 seconds when Dicaprio fell down on a slam attempt and allowed Royce to pin him.
The result was a shock for fans who had earlier in the night embraced Dicaprio when he refused to agree to throw the match in Royce's favour. The near-brawl that erupted between all four members of the Elite Squad was revealed as an elaborate ruse and Royce declared himself the 'real heavyweight champion' and eventual Premier Cup winner.
And in the evenings best match, former two-time former PCW Heavyweight Champion Kenny Omega and curreent PCW Heavyweight Champion Mentallo engaged in an absolute classic encounter.
Flipping, flying & jumping all over the ring, both men wowed the fans. Showing impressive dynamics, they even took the match to the mat, engaging in a thrilling technical battle.
In a bonafide 5-star classic that was as good as any match shown on Pay Per View in recent times, Mentallo came out on top to advance to the Premier Cup!
The final tournament participant will be determined on May 26th at the LID nightclub by a WildCard Rumble. Any professional wrestler including qualifying match losers will be eligible to enter that event.
Premier Cup 2005: X-Raided comes live from the LID Nightclub June 2nd! The one night, eight man tournament will feature the most outstanding sports entertainment action!
In addition to the eight man tournament to determine the best of the best in North American professional wrestling, fans will be treated to the first ever inductions to the PCW Hall of Fame!
