ESW's Summer Contention will be the crowning of the first ever New Britain Heavyweight Wrestling Championship, there will be a total of four wrestlers that will wrestle for that championship while six other wrestlers will challenge to enter the New Britain Bracket. Mr.LaHart explained the system that will crown the first champion and the continuing system to determine the number one contender. The system explained to the media is this, there are four wrestlers in the New Britain Bracket who will face off with the winners advancing to the number one contenders spot, the runner-up in that final will remain in the New Britain Bracket. There are six wrestlers on the outside who will face off in hopes to enter the New Britain Bracket, three winners advance. This system will be a crucial part of the Euro Star Wrestling promotion, Mr.LaHart also announced that you will see tag team wrestling from time to time, but there are no plans at this time to have a championship for tag team wrestling.

" I'm excited about wrestling in Europe, this will be an opportunity to show the rest of the world that I'am not just a big man and that I can wrestle. "" You've asked me about George Hackenschmidt, well he's a big man and a big name here in Europe and I'm not going to backdown from him or anyone who wrestlers in Euro Star Wrestling. "" This New Britain Bracket system is just like a playoff system, I'm going to make sure that I'm ready to enter the tournament and win it! "It was very interesting to interview Mr.Lesner, he will be a force I'm sure in the ESW and I will have the interview with George Hackenschmidt in tomorrow's edition of the Metro Sun.

Lesnar is going to have his work cut out for him. He didn't do too well when he was in T.A.G.!
If I had made that poster, I would have forgotten about euro money and used "$" instead! Good thing you caught that!
Didn't know they had wrestling in Europe! ;D

( 6 / 22 / 08 - EDITION ) A Saint Comes Marching In Reported by Pat Larose When I talked with George Hackenschmidt two days ago it was interesting to hear his comments, here's what Mr.Hackenschmidt had to say... " Mr.Larose I have to tell you that I'm looking to the challenge in winning the New Britain Championship, but there is one man who thinks it will be easy to win in Europe. Brock Lesner you will not just walk in into Europe and think your in the United States, if he happen to face off it will be a pleasure to show you how it's done in Europe. "" I think when I speak I speak for all those European wrestlers out there that when your not from Europe and you enter this new promotion you will have it easy, I challenge those who are from this part of the world one day sign with Euro Star Wrestling and battle in your native lands, but I also challenge those who are not from here. "" In the end to be the first New Britain Heavyweight Champion would be a great achivement, July 5th we will find out whose up to the task in winning the championship belt. "George Hackenschmidt at the end of the interview told me that he looks to do what it takes to win the belt, and that don't be suprised in what it may take to win it. In other Euro Star news I've learned that Stampede Wrestling has released Johnny Saint from his contract with that company and Frank LaHart has signed Johnny to a Euro Star Wrestling contract, I was able to get a few comments from Mr.Saint and here is what he had to say... " So far wrestling in the LWA has been more or less not that good for me, but now that I have a chance to wrestler in my home country of England, I look to move up the ladder and to have a chance at Championship gold. "" Reading my copies of the Metro Sun I've seen that Brock Lesner and George Hackenschmidt have signed with the new promotion, I look to the challenge of wrestling not only those two but whomever else is signed with the promotion. "Johnny Saint had a run in RingSide Wrestling, but now that he is heading home you can say that " A SAINT IS MARCHING IN ", it will be interesting to see how he will fair in this new enviroment. Euro Star Wrestling has announced that July 6th will be the next event for Euro Star Wrestling and it will be held at the Tregonwell Centre in Bournemouth.

( 6 / 24 / 08 - EDITION ) LWA Free Agent Draft Reported by Pat Larose We know of three wrestlers that are signed with the Euro Star Wrestling promotion, but who will Frank LaHart sign with the company when the LWA Free Agent Draft is held this weekend. We here at Metro Sun will have a full recap of the draft and who will be drafted by LaHart. You would think that the ESW will be looking to sign wrestlers who are from the United Kingdom or the general area here in Europe. This is the first free agent draft for the LWA and with Euro Star Wrestling just starting it's product, this will be a major draft for this promotion. They are sitting at the sixth position which is a good seeding, but will they try and move up or will another promotion want their spot in some kind of trade offer. I did get a comment from Mr.LaHart and he told me that he's not going to turn down any offers if they are offered, but sitting at the sixth spot he said is a good place for this new promotion entering the LWA. We will have a reporter in the Americas that will have a full report on the draft and where the ESW stands with it's picks, the Metro Sun will also get interviews with those wrestlers drafted. UPCOMING EURO STAR EVENTS -Date: Saturday, July 5th, 2008 Venue: The Bannigton Hall, Taunton, Somerset Event: ESW's "Summer Contentions" Ticket Prices: £6.00–£20.00 Card Information: Crowning of the New Britain Heavyweight Wrestling Championship Date: Sunday, July 6th, 2008 Venue: The Tregonwell Centre, Bournemouth, Dorset Event: Euro Star Wrestling Event Ticket Prices: £5.00–£15.00 Card Information: New Britain Heavyweight Champion in action and a new Number One Contender in the New Britain Bracket will be decided

( 6 / 25 / 08 - EDITION ) Long Road to Europe Reported by Pat Larose I made some calls today to the United States and I talked with a representative from RingSide Wrestling and they've told me that they made a deal with the Pacific Northwest Wrestling promotion, this deal delt "Dr.D" David Shultz to PNW while Nikita Koloff was sent to Euro Star Wrestling. This is big news for Euro Star Wrestling, that RingSide official told me that they will be looking to work with the ESW down the road for helping with the trade. I was able to get a few words in with Nikita Koloff, this is what he had to say about being traded to Euro Star Wrestling... " I never really cared for the state of Portland and I'am proud to be headed to Europe and challenge for the New Britain Championship, I've noticed that a American named Brock Lesner is pushing himself onto the people of Europe, well Brock your going to face the Russian Nightmare in July! "This reporter had to translate what Nikita Koloff said, but those words are not enough to describe what this man is feeling, I can say that Euro Star Wrestling will be a promotion to watch. I was sent an e-mail about two hours later and I recieved an image that already has been seen on the streets of England in flyer format.

( 6 / 27 / 08 - EDITION ) Great Britain Calling Reported by Pat Larose Euro Star Wrestling yesterday announced that they've signed four wrestlers from England and I've done some research on these four and I will describe who these men are and what they bring to the Euro Star table. Jim BreaksWhen Jim Breaks enters the ring and when he sneered at the crowd, arrogance visibly oozed from every pore of Jim Breaks' body. Breaks is a master of the dubious and sometimes not so dubiois rule bending tactics. In the end Jim Breaks is one of the most hated men in Europe and he will be a force in the ESW. Les KellettKellett is a very unqiue man and wrestler, he can make his opponent look foolish by feigning semi-consciousness and then sidestepping a blow at the last minute. You can say that Kellett will be fun to watch in the ESW, and how long will the rest of the roster withstand his antics. Wayne BridgesThis boy next door turned wrestler is a fan favorite and he has a amateur background that will add to the Euro Star scene, Bridges has the skill and ability to win Championship gold in the ESW, will he rise up to the top with a very talented roster. Mick McManusHe is the top hated wrestler from the UK, his sneer drew jeers from the fans like no other. McManus can wrestle, but his in-ring tactics and antics will make for an interesting match-up's against other members of the Euro Star roster. So July 5th we will see how the ESW's Summer Contentions will unfold with these four and the others like Brock Lesner and Nikita Koloff. Euro Star Wrestling will present a unique product and those four new faces will add a spark in the overall product. UPCOMING EURO STAR EVENTS -Date: Saturday, July 5th, 2008 Venue: The Bannigton Hall, Taunton, Somerset Event: ESW's "Summer Contentions" Ticket Prices: £6.00–£20.00 Card Information: Crowning of the New Britain Heavyweight Wrestling Championship Date: Sunday, July 6th, 2008 Venue: The Tregonwell Centre, Bournemouth, Dorset Event: Euro Star Wrestling Event Ticket Prices: £5.00–£15.00 Card Information: New Britain Heavyweight Champion in action and a new Number One Contender in the New Britain Bracket will be decided

( 7 / 6 / 08 - EDITION ) ESW'S Summer Contentions Reported by Pat Larose The ESW's Summer Contentions Event took place on 7 / 5 / 08 and when I walked into the Bannigton Hall in Taunton, Somerset I could tell that this will be an electric night with a packed house of 975 fans. Two wrestlers that were unable to attend the event had prior commitments in the United States and they are Mike Rotundo and Gary Albright. The crowd started chanting ESW several times before the action would start, the first match of three of the New Britain Elevation Bracket that took place pitted Jim Breaks versus Mick McManus, which saw the crowd rise to their feet when these men walked to the ring... Jim Breaks vs. Mick McManusI was trying to watch both the match and the crowd, it was insane both in and out of the ring. The fans were into this match, and the match itself went back and forth and we saw the antics of Jim Breaks who through some temper tantrums during the match. But in the end Mick McManus took control and he flew off the Top Turnbuckle with a CROSS BODY which knocked out Breaks for the ten count and the winner of the match was Mick McManus.Les Kellett vs. Chris AdamsWhen this match was announced the crowd once again erupted in cheers, when both men walked out the crowd chanted their names several times. Kellett during the match pulled one of his classic faint and fall tricks and suprised Adams, then Kellett finished off Adams with a INDIAN DEATH LOCK that made Adams tap out and your winner is Les Kellett.Karl Gotch vs. Nikita KoloffKarl Gotch seemed to get the loudest applause from the crowd and Nikita Koloff got the loudest jeers from the crowd, during the match Koloff egg'd on the crowd several times and he then focused on Gotch and dominated him and then he finished Gotch off with a RUSSIAN SICKLE to secure the victory and your winner is NIKITA KOLOFF.Once the Gotch and Koloff match ended the crowd was silent for a spell and the Len Rossi walked out and had a mic in hand, he told the crowd that he just signed a special match against Mick McManus, and if he wins the match he gets Mick's spot in the New Britain Bracket. The crowd started to chant Rossi several times and then McManus walked out and both men stared one another down and then they got into the ring. Mick McManus vs. Len RossiMcManus egg'd the crowd on and they jeered him good throughout the match, but McManus dismantled Rossi and he finished him off with a RUNNING FOREARM to secure his spot on the New Britain Bracket and your winner is Mick McManus.The next two matches will decide who will face off for the New Britain Heavyweight Championship in the New Britain Bracket, the crowd continued to have a great time. The first match we saw George Hackenschmidt taking on Johnny Saint... George Hackenschmidt vs. Johnny SaintThe crowd watched a match that just lifted the roof off the Bannigton Hall, both men wrestled and brawled throughout this match and then Hackenschmidt delivered a RUSSIAN BEAR HUG that secured a spot in the Championship Final and your winner is George Hackenschmidt.Brock Lesner vs. Wayne BridgesI was suprised to see that the crowd cheered for Lesner when he walked out and they didn't cheer for Bridges whose the darling of England, during this match both men had offensive chances but Lesner looked the better wrestler and he finished off Bridges with a F-5 to secure the last spot in the Championship Final and the winner of the match is Brock Lesner.After the match Brock Lesner grabbed a mic, he told the crowd that whatever Mike Rotundo has in the briefcase he has, that he is going to lead the T.A.G. UK group to new heights. Thats when Nikita Koloff walks out and tells Lesner that he will not lead him anywhere and infact no one will lead the Russian Nightmare. The crowd started to chant FIGHT several times but Koloff walked off. So the New Britain Heavyweight Championship match is set and so Lesner waited for George Hackenschmidt to walk out, Hackenschmidt walked out and got into the ring and both men shooked hands... George Hackenschmidt vs. Brock LesnerGeorge Hackenschmidt and Brock Lesner faced off before the bell was rung, both men went toe-to-toe in this match and the crowd watched a barnburner of a match. George Hackenschmidt looked good in this match but Lesner was on his "A" game and Lesner delivered a F-5 that would layout Hackenschmidt, your winner and the New Britain Heavyweight Champion is BROCK LESNER.The crowd was electric throughout the whole event and they got even louder once Lesner raised up the New Britain Heavyweight belt, I was covering this event as a reporter but I became a fan by nights end. Lesner left the ring and shook hands with the crowd and I was able to get a few comments from Lesner. " Pat this has too be the greatest moment in my wrestling career, these fans are great and I look to defend this belt. "
" Nikita Koloff I hope you win the next New Britain Bracket and I can kick your Russian ass!"In the end Euro Star Wrestling's Summer Contention is just the beginning of whats to come, I will be reporting the next ESW event which takes place later on tonight and you'll be able to read it in the 7 / 7 / 08 edition of the Metro Sun. UPCOMING EURO STAR EVENTS -Date: Sunday, July 6th, 2008 Venue: The Tregonwell Centre, Bournemouth, Dorset Event: Euro Star Wrestling Event Ticket Prices: £5.00–£15.00 Card Information: New Britain Heavyweight Champion in action and a new Number One Contender in the New Britain Bracket will be decided
