# IPW:UK Kick Off Orpington 2008 With No Escape, January 27th ft the WWE’s former EUGENE!!

» When IPW:UK weren’t able to end 2007 with a bang, it was decided that 2008 would therefore have to start with an even BIGGER bang that 2007 could have possibly ended! And as such, IPW:UK are happy to report that the ANDY BOY SIMMONZ VS. JOHNNY SAINT match that was set for December 16th, featuring Johnny Saint coming out of retirement for his first title match in over 10 years, will now take place on January 27th!

But that’s not all �€" in addition to a legend of British wrestling, we have a superstar of recent WWE fame, in the WWE’s former EUGENE! Who will U-Gene take on from the IPW:UK locker-room come January 27th?

Plus, matches from the British National Championship as Johnny Moss makes his Orpington debut, and Jody Fleisch and Leroy Kincaide make their first appearances in Orpington for a combined 2 years!

# More Matches Signed For No Escape!

» The British National Championship is going strong, and with just a splattering of matches still to come in the first round bracket, the second round is taking firm shape. With some big names already out, and some sailing through, it’s time for those who still remain to man up and stride into round 2.

On January 27th we see the following first round matchups:

- ‘The Phoenix’ will fly again in Orpington, as Jody Fleisch takes on wrestler turned musical rap superstar Leroy Kincaide

- One of the stars of Northern wrestling, ‘The Vigilante’ Johnny Moss makes his Orpington debut as a strong favourite against RQW’s own JP Monroe.

- And finally, the plucky young Spud will go one-on-one against long-term rival ‘The Human Hate Machine’ Dave Moralez in singles action. One of the toughest to call matches in the whole of the first round bracket, this one could go literally either way.

» In addition to those three matches however, fans will be pleased to hear confirmed in the opening newsbit that Andy Boy Simmonz will indeed defend his IPW:UK title against the British Legend that is the one and only Johnny Saint.

Saint will also be taking that day’s IPW:UK in-ring training, and for more information on that and all other sessions, check out https://www.ipwuktraining.com.

» Blok Busta’s challenge for currently missing in action former IPW:UK Champion, JC Thunder, to come to Orpington to go face to face with him has not been forgotten, and still stands for January 27th!

» And finally, The Big Bald Bastards (Ryan/Bones), The Leaders of the New School (Robinson, Scurll & Brixton), IPW:UK Tag Team Champions The Kartel and many more have all been signed to appear, including of course the former IPW:UK Champion himself, ‘The Guvnor’ Martin Stone!


# A FREE Afternoon Of Action Starting At 3.15!

» That’s right fans, IPW:UK will still be delivering on our Christmas gift to you all, and then some. December was to host a special *FREE* wrestling card, running for one hour before the evening show begins, but alas it was not to be.

Fast forward to January 27th, and IPW:UK will be delivering the Christmas Cracker afternoon card that never was. The scheduled 3-way and tag team bouts will still occur, and there will be one extra addition to the three match card, as we see:

In the British National Championship, first round: ‘The Anarchist’ ‘The Anarchist’ Doug Williams vs. Marty Scurll (of the Leaders of the New School)!

You will NOT want to miss this *first time ever* meeting of the pair!
