THE NEW FACES OF THE TAG TEAM DIVISION “We are going to break every and all tag team records that exists in RPW”
The quote straightforwardly describes the belief of the WW Tag Team Champions in that they are ready to take charge in the tag division and shatter all current records in that realm. 172 days (held by The Authority) is the current longest tag team reign in RPW.
How long can The Brickley's hold their new titles for, and who will be the next opponents to try and dethrone them on Woah Warzone?

Starting off their first defence being against two formidable opponents who held those very titles for over 100 days was a perfect way to kickstart their title reign. Mr Tag Team Gore alongside the Universal champion Jocko were looking to win their old tag titles back off the new champions this week however felt short in the main event.
THE BEAR CLAIMS GOLD In Toxic Thursdays Main Event we saw The Bear pick up his first ever Intercontinental Championship by demolishing Zeke in an iron man match. Bear has held the US title as well as the FNF tag titles and now adds the IC belt to his impressive growing collection. The Bear is showing signs of improving and adapting his move set as he brought high flying, acrobatics and power into this match in order to get the job done.

Friday saw the opposite of Thursday as FJ managed to impressively retain his Network Title in a triple threat against Oliver Kingzz and Krish. The submission was the key as he quickly locked it in before Kinggzz could do anything about it. Multi man title matches are always scepticle as you don't have to be the one that gets pinned however FJ powered through and kept his title to himself.
KingLeb and Roddy Hall are not friends, that much is clear. But the evolution of their rivalry has been sped up tenfold after Friday. Roddy took a ladder to the face post loss to Leb in a heated moment as Leb looked to add insult to injury... quite literally.
Writer William Hunt With tensions rising and emotions rushing, i'm sure this will not be the last we see of these two in a ring. Medical reports post match have shown that Roddy 'Ripper' Hall has suffered a broken nose in the process as well as a gash on his forehead which needed a total of 8 stitches. These injuries will result in Roddy being side-lined for the foreseeable future.
"In my opinion he screwed us all. But you can watch what happened last week and give a verdict for yourself"

AIR BOOM BACK IN THE TAG TEAM LIMELIGHT
With the possibility of Air Boom once again becoming Tag champs it means that Charmander could see his first double championship reign in RPW. We know Charmander as a tag team champion previously however his shock win over Branden Bombs means this is the best run of his career.
NEXT WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION? The rivalry between former WHC Branden and former Universal Champ Sibzz continued on Toxic Thursday and saw Sibzz pick up his back to back win against Bombs. These are two of our strongest and dominant superstars, both drafted by Alfredo to the green brand. The competition for the WHC is popping off, with multiple big named stars eyeing up the big gold. Sibzz and Branden both think they are the next in line for the title and will continue to go back and forth until one has the belt around their waist. Freshy Sibzz is looking like his old self again, with dominant victories over a former champ he is making sure that his new show knows what he is fully capable of.

TuVince Shamone has made it clear that he believes the next superstar to be the face that runs the place will be Chase Cruise. TuVince brought him in from the indies with the belief that Chase has what it takes to literally take over RPW and become World Heavyweight Champion. TuVince was quoted saying "he has it all, the whole package. He can wrestle better than anyone, he can talk on the mic and command the crowd, he is loved in RPW and he WILL be the future of this company."

Brian was the first EVER RPW World Heavyweight Champion, He has also held the Universal Championship in his time in the ring and now picks up the hardest belt to defend after a massive win against Vinu.

THE CRAZY CHOICE! HARDCORE OR NETWORK CHAMPIONSHIP?
After winning in the 8 man main event of Friday Night Fury, Crazywildboy now possesses a choice that all of RPW will be jealous of. He gets a title shot against EITHER the Hardcore Champ Deano (which Chase Cruise is currently #1 contender for) or the Network Title (which Oliver Kingzz and Krish are sniffing around) as well as being #1 contenders for the tag titles alongside Zippy. Crazy is the longest RPW superstar without having held a title in his career, all could change for him in the coming weeks leading up to the PLE as he could

Series 2 has seen many debuts in the early days of the new year, a lot of impressive new names have hit the scene from all over the world. Two of the names are making a BIG splash... Lee Lassiter (pictured left) and Grayson Grix Lee (pictured below) have been on a DESTRUCTIVE path in their first few matches in the ring as they look to dismantle and destroy whoever stands opposite.
So far Lee is 2-0 in his young career, both matches being against former US and WHC, Drake Psycho. Both matches he has had a fast start and picked apart the more experienced former world champion, making Drake look like the rookie in the ring. There have been no answers to stop Lee as of yet, hopefully next week on Woah Warzone we can see him face new opposition as he has embarrassed Drake twice now since his big return at RegentsMania. As for Grayson he is currently 2-1. (the loss being an 8 man battle royal on ShowDown) Grayson is coming off of a SENSATIONAL win against team captain Lamin on FNF this past week which saw him deliver a deadly spinebuster to get the 3 count. Lamin is looking at his rookies to put in big performances at the upcoming PLE which is why he wanted to call out the big man in the first place. Both new faces have put the other rookies on notice and have their ambitions set on continuing their destructive starts on their respective brands.

"NOTHING beats passion" "It’s not the will to win that matters – everyone has that. It’s the will to prepare to win that matters. To be a champ you have to believe in yourself when no one else will. Wrestling is overcoming obstacles. Every drop of sweat, every black eye, and every mile run reinforce that the will to train sets winners apart. Respect your opponents, but don’t ever fear them. Without sacrifice, there can be no victory. Once you learn to quit, it becomes a habit."
