Mark your calendars for April 9th 2016 at 7pm. It will be the first time WORLD-1 champion, Chris Rockwell will defend his championship in his home state in nearly 5 years. We were able to get a comment from the current champion.
Over the years, I have defended the championship everywhere from New York to North Carolina. I told you people you should’ve just retired the belt when I won it on January 31st 2010, because no one could take it from me. Since then, I’ve beaten everyone. Adam Cole, Colby Corino, The Monster Ahtu, CW Anderson, Jerry Lynn and even my idol and founder of this company, Steve Corino. Now that I’m thinking about it, I have defeated every former ECW hack you have put in front of me.
When Chris Rockwell walks into The Bull Pen in Morganville NJ (712 Ginesi Drive) he will have been WORLD-1 champion for 6 years, 2 months and 9 days. Something unprecedented in todays wrestling landscape.
WORLD-1 is happy to announce Chris Rockwell’s opponent will be none other than ECW/TNA/WWE star Al Snow! Snow has traveled the globe and is considered by many fans to be one of the all time greatest in the sport. We reached out to Snow for a comments on his upcoming title shot against Chris Rockwell.
I would love to tell you that Chris Rockwell is a nobody, and that he hasn’t been to all the places that I have been. Or that I am going to teach him a lesson on April 9th. But, truth be told, Chris Rockwell is a dangerous champion. The fact that he is so desperate to hold onto the WORLD-1 championship makes him terribly dangerous. Every day that goes by he inches into history, and I can tell you right now the paranoia is setting in. If he wants to call out former ECW names, so be it. I know what I am capable of, and I know what it feels like to be the champion. After our match I will know that feeling once again. What does everybody want? Al Snow as the WORLD-1 champion.
For the first time in over 10 years, Justin Credible returns to a WORLD-1 ring. Credible the main eventer for several early W1 shows in 2004-2005, will be in action as he teams with Jaysin Genesis. Many have noticed how the actions of Jaysin Genesis seem to mirror those of Justin Credible and it seems as though their parallel career paths will finally intersect on April 9th in Morganville NJ. The question is, will they work well as a team or implode onto themselves?
Their opponents for the evening will be the unlikely pairing of young, British upstart, Erik Bromley and the flamboyant playboy, Jay D Luscious. Bromley had the following to say regarding the match:
I don’t know much about Jay D Luscious but I am looking forward to having the opportunity to better my in ring skills, and show what I am capable of to the WORLD-1 fans. The fact that I will be standing across the ring from Justin Credible and Jaysin Genesis is not something I am taking lightly. Both men are dangerous inside the squared circle and I plan to be at my absolute best for this match.
On the contrary, Jay D Luscious took a less humble approach:
Justin Credible and Jaysin Genesis? Hmmm, I love to rub a bald head. My partner Erik Bromley, I’m sure he is talented, but I don’t think I’ll need help in there. As long as all the Lusc-Ites are behind…my behind, I will be ready to go.
Also, WWE Hall of Famer Tito Santana will be in action!
