After the cleansing fire of apocalypse, there is a nothingness, but only for a brief time. From the blankness and ash will always rise a new beginning. New life springs forth. On May 27th, the LEGEND OF INSPIRE PRO continues in a LEGACY-BUILDING mega-event — THERE IS NO TOMORROW! That night the roar of impending EDEN will DEAFEN THE MASSES!
NO MERCY GAUNTLET III – WITH SPECIAL MYSTERY PRIZE ON THE LINE
The rules are simple. Four men enter, and with each pin or submission, a new man joins the fray until one is left standing. Previously, championship opportunities and even the J-Crown holder have been determined by this unique competition. While there is something on the prize this time, the absolute desserts are being with held until that night. Inspire Pro has cultivated a sense of excitement based on previous reveals, which are always a BIG BANG! That said, a litany of great wrestlers have stepped up to participate in the gauntlet.
Amongst them will be T-RAY and ASHTON JACOBS of FRIENDS UNDER CORPORATE CONTRACT. Interestingly, a returning REX ANDREWS, formerly of THE NEW MOVEMENT will also be a part of the contest. Deemed “dead skin” by FUCC’s Dan Ziglar, Rex has had no opportunity to respond to his release. However, this opportunity will provide a glimpse into his status with former team mates. KODY LANE is vying for the hidden prize as well – a man who also has history with JACOBS and T-RAY. Many would say the door was closed on that chapter following what essentially digressed into a no DQ tornado-style brawl at our last event between Dalton, Lane, and MASADA against the newly-minted FUCC stable, but in this business that’s a myth. Also returning will be YUL HUBBARD – a man determined to leave his impression on the company. GANNICUS, of the EPILEPTIC CAESARS, also returns, sights set on a singles run and eager to make a splash. And of course, we have STEVE O RENO, hot off the heels of his card-stealing encounter with JOEY JANELA.
Who knows what riches lurk behind the curtain for the last man standing? Biss has promised major implications that will impact the title scene in a major way. Be there on May 27th to find out just what’s on the line!
MASSIVE & GINO vs. “Showtime” MATTHEW PALMER w/ a MYSTERY PARTNER
MATTHEW PALMER’s arrogance has gotten him into a lot of terrible life situations over the last year. Palmer has poked the bear, and in the process has begun to alienate his keeper, ROXY CASTILLO, who has been striving to help curb Matt’s inflammatory personality. On May 27th, Matt will face MASSIVE once again, who will be joined this time by GINO, who recently joined the crusade to break Palmer at our last event. However, Palmer will not brave the storm alone. Roxy has apparently lined up a viable partner for Matt. Determined to continue to create learning moments for Matt, Roxy has vowed that this will be a big one for him, and that her client’s entire world will change after THERE IS NO TOMORROW.
FOUR-WAY ELIMINATION MATCH: “Next Level” ZAC TAYLOR vs. “The King Of Dong Style” JOEY RYAN vs. “Rocketboy” D’MARCO WILSON vs. “The New Age Punisher” B-BOY
One need only look at the names of these competitors to know that this one is destined to get a little crazy. In fact, this could be a dark horse match of the night. In one corner, you have a young prospect who made an extremely lasting impression at WAR O CLOCK HIGH, ZAC TAYLOR. It was sink or swim for Zac when he was granted the opportunity to challenge for the Pure Prestige Championship in the main event of our last event against Davey Vega and his mentor ACH, and with tons of mounting pressure, Zac showcased what he was capable of in a breakout performance. His stock is on the rise, but it could take a hit against the three other men he’ll be facing that night.
The second competitor comes in the form of a returning “King Of Dong Style” JOEY RYAN. You never know what to expect from one of the most well-traveled independent stars today, so what Joey plans to bring to THERE IS NO TOMORROW will have to be seen for yourself.
Third, “Rocketboy” D’MARCO WILSON makes his Inspire Pro debut. Quite the athletic and innovative competitor, Inspire Pro management has had their eye on the California based competitor and cannot wait to see what he does inside an Inspire Pro ring.
And finally, also making his highly requested Inspire Pro debut, “The New Age Punisher” B-BOY. With his no nonsense, smash mouth style, B-Boy has been a staple on the independent scene for years. While it is his first night in Inspire Pro, The New Age Punisher brings a reputation that elevates this match even further to something special. Who leaves on top in this wild affair? Be there to find out!
Inspire Pro Championship: TERRALE TEMPO © vs. ETHAN PRICE
ETHAN PRICE’s journey through INSPIRE PRO is a unique one to say the least. Beginning as a mere backstage camera man with the company, that all ended abruptly when ROXY CASTILLO signed the young hopeful to a contract in what seemed like a simple whim intended to annoy MATTHEW PALMER. However, since then Ethan has managed to win the hearts of the Inspire Pro faithful with his boyish charisma and plucky spirit. However, it was his shocking win at WAR O CLOCK HIGH against GINO that really cemented that this was a young man to watch.
Cameras caught up with Ethan and Roxy following his humongous win. And as they were celebrating, Inspire Pro CEO Justin Bissonnette caught Ethan off guard. Impressed so far with the new wave of youth cresting high through Inspire Pro, Biss decided the time to give opportunity to this new blood was now. And so, then and there, he told Ethan that he had earned a shot at the INSPIRE PRO CHAMPIONSHIP for May 27th. At THERE IS NO TOMORROW, ETHAN PRICE would be facing the winner of that night’s title defense. Later that night, TEMPO successfully and viciously retained his title, cementing PRICE vs. TEMPO.
Ethan was still smiling ear to ear when Inspire Pro Champion TERRALE TEMPO caught up with him, and he had strong words for the young upstart.
Confidence is a volatile ingredient. It can move mountains, but it can also blow up in your face. Tempo is loaded with it, and some say it might potentially be his downfall. Beware the enthusiasm that rare opportunity brings, Champion. Beware the man with everything to gain and nothing to lose. On May 27th at THERE IS NO TOMORROW, THE PRICE MIGHT JUST BE RIGHT!
Inspire Pro Twin Dragon Connection Championship: The Heavy Hearts (Stacey Slade & Bruno De La Rosa) © vs. The Pump Patrol (Jared Wayne & Curt Matthews)
You have to hand it to the HEAVY HEARTS. The very first moment they laid foot in in INSPIRE PRO left an impression, and through provocation and unconventional strategies, they have very quickly ascended to the top of the TAG DIVISION, first separating the TWIN DRAGON CONNECTION TITLES, and ultimately then UNIFYING them in a daring divide-and-conquer gambit. Their impact has been absolutely SEISMIC. Everyone seemed to notice that the WAR O CLOCK HIGH event seemed a bit lighter than usual, as the boys in PURPLE AND PINK were conspicuous by their absence. It seemed that the boys had given themselves time off due to the fact that there was no clear competition in front of them. Indeed, the tag division was shaken to its core by the title shift and is only now beginning to regain its shape. According to the Hearts, for the time being, there is a true lack of any real serious competition for them to face. However, the Hearts are eager to beat some folks up, and have made a request for a dream match of sorts. Since their arrival, there have been tales relayed to them of a duo that once existed as the very antithesis of the Heavy Hearts. Some have even whispered how if these men were still in the fabric of INSPIRE PRO, that the Hearts would have been put in their place long ago. Tired of the back stage chatter, the Hearts sent a strongly-worded email from the ruins of a Golden Corral which now serves as their FORTRESS OF ATTITUDE, demanding that they be given an opportunity to silence the FAT SHAMERS!
SO, on MAY 27th, none other than INSPIRE PRO ORIGINALS, THE PUMP PATROL makes their long-awaited return and potentially right some of the transgresses which have occurred during their absence! Jared Wayne and Curt Matthews were last seen in Inspire Pro back in 2016 and have since gone on to raise the bar on lowering body fat percentages in a variety of other promotions throughout the American South. At THERE IS NO TOMORROW, the PUMP PATROL comes home to once again perform a full-fledged FLEXORCISM! But will it be powerful enough to move the HEAVY HEARTS? Ladies and gentlemen, SOMETHING’S GOTTA GIVE! BE THERE TO EXPERIENCE PUMPING HEARTS!
“The Bulldozer” Matt Tremont vs. “Ruthless” Ryan Davidson
“Ruthless” RYAN DAVIDSON has doled out raw slabs of brutality throughout his tenure in INSPIRE PRO thus far. He came within a hair of attaining a power that might have changed the entire trajectory of his career in the LAWLESS DARKNESS semi-finals. He most certainly left an indelible impression on JORDAN LEN-X when they met within the confines of a STEEL CAGE – the first ever match of this sort held by the company. He did not walk away with a victory, but still left a crater of an impression with all witnesses. And then most recently there was the wild opening main event at WAR O CLOCK HIGH, where Davidson clashed with RICKY STARKS. Both men proceeded to have a matchup that left jaws on the floor. It was a contest featuring two of the most volatile tempers in all of Inspire Pro, but between the both of them, Starks was the man who’s already done battle with his anger issues and learned to control himself in the process. It is no coincidence that he was the victory of that contest. In spite of his string of impressive performances, simply impressing is no longer enough for the man many consider to be a classic throwback grappler. Davidson has a thirst for winning now, and has vowed that he is determined to focus the storm inside into an approximate SHAPE OF RAGE. Davidson made a request to Inspire Pro management for a proving ground; a do-or-die challenge to push him to his limits. After several weeks, Inspire Pro returned with a matchup for Davidson. It’s what he wanted, but it also might be one he winds up regretting.
On May 27th, RYAN DAVIDSON squares off with one of the most brutal and violent men on the independent scene today, “The Bulldozer” MATT TREMONT. One of the top Deathmatch wrestlers in the world, Tremont has brought his brand of violence across America and Europe, and there is nothing this man hasn’t encountered from barbed wire, to cinder blocks or panes of glass. Tremont is not one to be taken lightly. Indeed, Davidson, a man whom many consider to be a man with the disposition and stature of a monster, will go head to head with another beast.
With RAGE AGAINST RAGE, THERE IS NO TOMORROW! Do not miss the history and the fury when DAVIDSON is pushed to a brink he’s perhaps never known in a clash with a man who is simply DEADLY, MATT TREMONT! Don’t miss out on this unpredictable affair.
Three Way Match: Nicole Savoy vs. Thunder Rosa vs. Xia Brookside
Inspire Pro never stops at trying to top itself with some of the best in-ring action on the planet, and this TRIPLE THREAT matchup is sure to be no exception. First up, making her long awaited and highly requested return to Inspire Pro, none other than the one they call the Queen Of Suplexes, NICOLE SAVOY. Nicole last competed in an Inspire Pro ring all the way back in 2015 in a barnburner of a contest against Athena, at a time when her name recognition was slowly increasing. Since that time, not only has the California native accomplished a tour of Japan and competed against some of the best competitors in the country in WWE’s Mae Young Classic Tournament, but is the current reigning Shimmer World Champion. Now considered one of the top female athletes in the country, Nicole Savoy makes her way back to Inspire Pro to take over. The first of her opponents comes in the form of one of the most fiery, hard hitting competitors on the entire Inspire Pro roster, THUNDER ROSA. Named Inspire Pro’s 2017 Breakout Star Of The Year, Rosa shows no signs of stopping the momentum train that she has been riding, as she is coming off a hard fought win against Kylie Rae at WAR O’CLOCK HIGH. Could she add another notch to the win column in this match? To do so, she won’t just have to go through Nicole Savoy, but also an international star making her Inspire Pro debut, coming all the way from the United Kingdom, XIA BROOKSIDE. Step daughter of legendary European wrestler Robbie Brookside, Xia at only 18 years of age has already begun to make a name for herself, including capturing the IPW:UK Women’s Championship and participating in multiple tours for the Stardom promotion in Japan. This matchup will be one of Xia’s first opportunities to compete on American soil, a goal of hers that she does not want to waste or take lightly. With these three elements in one ring, it is sure to make for a show-stealing performance.
XX Division & J-Watch Unification Match: Delilah Doom vs. J. Serious
ON MAY 27th, INSPIRE PRO will CRACK! Tectonic plates will SHIFT! Continents will JOIN! The face of the world as we know it will FOREVER CHANGE following a momentous molten-hot collision between CHAMPIONS! Both TIME and TITLE will be joined in a golden culmination that will be our FUTURE!
The tremor that created a crack began back at A HERO NEVER DIES, when DELILAH DOOM, DAVEY VEGA, and TIM STORM took on THE HEAVY HEARTS and J SERIOUS in trios grudge match, which wore some unique stipulations: in a match featuring various champions, it was decreed that whosoever was pinned would also lose their respective title in the contest. After a wild contest, it was Delilah who fell, and Bruno De Le Rosa of the HEAVY HEARTS, who hoisted the BLUE DRAGON above his head as new tag champion. Though she lost her tag title, Delilah remained XX Division Champion – something that has since bothered current J-WATCH CHAMPION J. SERIOUS.
The always lucid J. SERIOUS has remained somewhat silent over the following months, but recently broke his silence late last week to issue a challenge that will produce a PROGRESSIVE CONCEPT. We saw a different side to the champion in a candid interview, who claims he’s been in a one-man think tank recently. “Look,” began Serious, “the fact that Bruno De La Rosa isn’t your current XX Division champion is a disgrace to the title itself.”
He continued, “I’m not lobbying for a title change. Try to wrap your heads around this: I am issuing this challenge in the interest of EQUALITY! This is PROGRESS, PEOPLE! DELILAH DOOM versus J SERIOUS – TITLE UNIFICATION MATCH at THERE IS NO TOMORROW!”
Inspire Pro CEO Justin Bissonnette responded to the challenge with comments of his own, wherein he grudgingly acknowledged that the brash J-Watch champion had a point. “I’m not entirely sure where he’s coming from with this,” Biss remarked, “But on one hand he has a point, and he knows it.”
Biss continued, “Inspire has always prided itself in helping women’s wrestling progress. We have been huge proponents of attempting to elevate it producing quality matchups featuring the best talent out there. We try to view female wrestlers as just WRESTLERS. They aren’t just good ‘for being women.” They are JUST GOOD. I haven’t always seen eye to eye with J. SERIOUS, but this may be an opportunity to do something really huge.”
And apparently, current XX DIVISION CHAMPION DELILAH DOOM sees more than just the opportunity to get her hands on J. Serious in this instance. She, too, views it as an opportunity to break down barriers that separate genders.
So, according to Biss, “On May 27th, at THERE IS NO TOMORROW, DELILAH DOOM will face J. SERIOUS in a TITLE UNIFICATION MATCH – the winner will be crowned THE UNDEFINABLE CHAMPION.”
The parameters of this new division? THERE WILL BE NONE. Open to ALL competitors, regardless of GENDER or WEIGHT CLASS, Inspire believes THE UNDEFINABLE CHAMPIONSHIP will produce innovative new matchups and thinking. Biss concluded, “I see this as helping Inspire grow as a whole and really challenging conventional perceptions of what wrestling can be. It’s going to open a lot of doors for many different competitors. This is really something next level.”
This is the very definition of CANNOT-MISS WRESTLING.
Number One Contender Match For The Pure Prestige Championship: Maxwell Jacob Friedman vs. “Absolute” Ricky Starks
On the day after Armageddon, you must fight like THERE IS NO TOMORROW, and on May 27th, we anticipate a nuclear urgency on the battlefield! The MAIN EVENT has been set, and it is one that will have a megaton impact on the future of INSPIRE PRO, when “Absolute” RICKY STARKS and the returning MAXWELL JACOB FRIEDMAN go to war for the opportunity to become the NUMBER ONE CONTENDER for the PURE PRESTIGE TITLE. STARKS has proven that he is easily one of the best in the country today – charismatic as he is technically equipped, and with a white hot rage on tap. Ricky has it all under reign. The brash, magnetic, and skilled MJF could be the perfect foil. However, some might say FRIEDMAN’s arrogance and mouth outruns his finer points. Friedman also has an ace up his sleeve – an alliance with Dan The Man’s newly minted FRIENDS UNDER CORPORATE CONTRACT STABLE. Dan has much to prove as MJF’s Inspire Diplomat, and this is a major proving ground for the spoiled little general. Nevertheless, his guidance and presence will undoubtedly factor into this contest. This promises to be an absolutely classic encounter, when ego vs. pride, and we see who’s got the ultimate ability when it comes to backing up confidence! THIS IS A CANNOT-MISS MAIN EVENT!
THERE IS NO TOMORROW is Sunday, May 27th at AFS CINEMA (6226 Middle Fiskville Rd) in Austin, Texas. Tickets are priced at Front Row ($30), Second Row ($25) and General Admission ($20).
