After the success of IwW's October 2007, '5th Anniversary Tour', which saw over 2,000 wrestling fans pack a series of nationwide shows, Irish Whip Wrestling is proud to announce its upcoming St Paddy's Tour currently scheduled for March 2008.
Featuring some of the top names in independent wrestling today, IwW are looking to top the success and quality of their '5th Anniversary Tour' with the kind of in-ring action that has made it the biggest professional wrestling promotion in Ireland today.
The following names are just some of the stars that you can look forward to seeing this March 2008 on IwW's huge 'St Paddy's Tour':
EUGENE (WWE)[/b]
Eugene is one of the most 'special' talents on the independent scene. Well known for his career in WWE where he feuded with some of the highest-profile names there, Eugene was one of the most popular characters on both Raw and SmackDown during his time there. One wonders how both Irish fans and wrestlers will respond to this star when he makes his IwW debut, with the likes of the Ballymun Bruiser already having harsh words for him.
TRACY SMOTHERS (WWE, ECW)
Tracy Smothers will be well known to IwW fans as he has wrestled over here several times previously, most notably on the IwW 5th Anniversary Tour where he entertained fans up and down the country. The former WWE and ECW star broke into the business at first where he was well-known for wrestling a bear at one stage. Smothers is still unpredictable to this day, but always guarantees entertainment.[/center]
'THE QUEBECER' CARL OULETT (WWE, WCW, ECW, TNA)
'The Quebecer' is a true veteran of the sport, having wrestled in all major American promotions of the past decade. He is a former WWE Tag-Team Champion and was a part of one of the most well-remembered tag-teams of his generation. Outlett believes that his best days in the ring are still ahead of him however and is looking to prove as much to fans when he makes his IwW debut this March.
SCORPIO SKY (PWG, WSX)
Scorpio Sky is one of the most exciting, sought-after independent talents today. Having earnt a reputation on the American independent scene in Pro-Wrestling Guerrilla, Scorpio caught people's eye on a grand stage when he was a part of MTV's Wrestling Society X promotion. The young high flyer is known for both his aerial assaults and technical ability, and will no doubt have a point to prove to IwW's Zero-Gravity division when he comes to Ireland in March.
IwW International Heavyweight Champion, VIC VIPER
Viper has without a doubt been the most dominant International Heavyweight Champion in Irish Whip Wrestling history. His 'who's who' of defeated talent speaks for itself: 'The Fallen Angel' Christopher Daniels, CIMA, Doug Williams, Kid Kash, Tracy Smothers, the list goes on. Some were surprised to see him retain his title at the IwW 5th Anniversary tour, however that was only a testament to Viper's resiliance in proving nay-sayers wrong. Though unpopular with fans, Viper says that they've 'seen nothing yet' when it comes to him defending his Championship. We shall see...
'The Insane One' MAD MAN MANSON
One of the true characters of the independent circuit today, Mad Man Manson is one of the most popular stars in both Ireland and Britain. Reputed for his hilarious unpredictability as much as his vicious mean streak, Manson has gone from strength to strength since his debut where he went on an unprecedented winning streak and was seen by many as unstoppable. This reputation still stands strong today, however many believe that Manson may have a stigma attached to him around the IwW International Heavyweight Championship, as he has never been able to pry it from the arms of arch-rival Vic Viper. Will that change this March 2008?
'The Man with the Golden Can' BALLYMUN BRUISER
'The Man with the Golden Can' is one of the most capable wrestlers in Ireland. Despite his, at times, comic nature, make no mistake about it, the Ballymun-native is more than adept when inside the squared circle. He has risen through the ranks in IwW like no other and seems to be setting his sights firmly at the top this March, challenging the likes of Eugene and other top names in his effort to gain respect in the ring. Will 2008 be Bruiser's big breakout year?
'The Black-Hearted Warrior' MANDRAKE[/b][/size]
Mandrake is developing a cult-following in his well-documented quest to become IwW International Heavyweight Champion. 'The Black-Hearted Warrior' is possibly the most impressive rookies this country has ever seen. As he sets to embark upon his second full year inside the wrestling business, Ireland's fastest rising star has his sights set on nothing but the belt around Vic Viper's waist. Will the St Paddy's Tour be the time of reckoning for the Newry-native?[/center]
