Funk's Corner
-Two New Champions at the Funking Conservatory

Two major title changes took place at last night's !BANG! TV Taping, Support the Troops 19, Hard Labor.

In the Women's three way championship match, Kim Dakota won when Claudia "The Claw" Reiff reached for the back of Vicki Von's hot pants and pulled them down to her ankles. The startled Vicki Von completely lost her balance and composure, then fell victim to a reverse cradle by Kim Dakota.

In the "Dirtiest Player in the Game" match, Cowboy Cory Squires used the "Rock Bottom" to put away Johnny Romano after an eye gouge, hair pull, bite to the fingers, low blow and outside interference by Blain Rage.

In an action packed match that would have amazed Jackie Chan, Flyin' Ryan "Air" Mitchell with Sandii Skye retained the Florida Championship belt with a victory over Elvis Sharp with the Pop Tarts, Kim Dakota and Vicki Von when the Pop Tarts distracted Elvis by fighting among themselves instead of taking care of Elvis. Flyin' Ryan took advantage of the situation winning with a Super Kick to the chin.

In a !BANG! TV Championship match, Blain Rage with the Pop Tarts in his corner won over former ECW wrestler, Hack Myers when Vicki Von caught the HackMan with a low blow from left field followed up with Blain Rage's finishing mover, the "Face Buster."

In the main event of the night, a Lumberjack rules match for the Funking Conservatory World hampionship, Shane Chung earned a stolen victory over Johnny Magnum when after two attempts to hold Magnum's shoulders to the mat, Shane got additional leverage with both feet on the second rope unbeknown to the referee yet in front of all the wrestling fans and lumberjacks. to get the pin ball and the Funking Conservatory World Championship belt.

As a result of the controversial ending, After the match was over, a spontaneous battle royal broke out between the lumberjacks and participants, Johnny Magnum and Shane Chung that ended in a combination pier six brawl and a five way catfight that culminated in Johnny Magnum stomping a mudhole in Cowboy Cory Squire's cowboy hat.

The two new Champions, Shane Chung and Kim Dakota (photo review special) are featured on our website at www.dory-funk.com.

STATE OF THE UNION #7

UIPW News for 03 Sept 2007

BIG CHANGES TO THE LINE-UP FOR "BORN AGAIN"

With just days to go before the UNION's debut event in Toronto, AUSTIN SHAW, the UIPW Head of Fighters Affairs, was reminded of just how true the phrase "Card subject to change" can be when he received some bad news from several of its Workers. First, CHRIS KOLE had to cancel his appearance at BORN AGAIN. Then, RAYMOND ROWE had to bow out. And finally, TOBY KLEIN is being advertised to wrestle for IWA: Mid-South on September 7, 8 and 9 and has become unreachable by UNION officials to either confirm or cancel his long-scheduled appearance in Toronto.

Shaw has taken this opportunity to recruit some new talent and re-shuffle the line-up for this debut event. First, Shaw contacted indy wrestling sensation "FABULOUS" JOHN McCHESNEY. Fans with elephant-like memories will recall that McChesney was the last Heavyweight champion of the original UNION back in 2004. The Fabulous One is now back in the UNION and looking to climb back to the top. He'll get that chance right away as McChesney will take on EL GENERICO in the evening's semi-main event.

Next, Austin Shaw placed a call to South Jersey to recruit "The New Generation Ace" RICKY LANDELL. Trained by STEVE CORINO, Landell has come into his own making appearances for groups such as Ring of Honor and Jersey All-Pro, successfully touring Japan, winning the AWA World Tag titles and now, joining the UNION. The brash young upstart will go one-on-one with Buffalo, NY's PEPPER PARKS at BORN AGAIN.

In addition, Shaw has scrambled the card a little to provide UNION fans' with even more excitement. Shaw has added another Northern Lights Cruiserweight Division match as EDDIE OSBOURNE will now face off against RIP IMPACT. With The HORNET and SHIIMA XION still scheduled to fight, the Northern Lights Division is getting a tremendous kick-off at BORN AGAIN.

Here's a rundown of the complete card...

MAIN EVENT GRUDGE MATCH!!!

"The King of Old School" STEVE CORINO vs. STERLING JAMES KEENAN

PWG World Tag Team Champion EL GENERICO vs. IWC Super Indy Champion "Fabulous" JOHN McCHESNEY
