A pair of faces you may have seen on national television have been announced for an upcoming Paradigm Pro Wrestling event.
Former NXT star Anthony Greene as well as current IMPACT Wrestling star Jake Something have been announced as participants for PPW’s upcoming ‘Heavy Hitters’ tournament.
From PPW:
COLUMBUS, OH – After weeks of announcements, Paradigm Pro Wrestling and the Ohio Wrestling Alliance have revealed the entire field for the Third Annual Heavy Hitters Tournament.
Tournament entrants will include former WWE NXT star Anthony Greene, Impact Wrestling’s Jake Something, former Bellator MMA fighter Matt Makowski, Major League Wrestling’s Alex Kane, GCW Tag Team Champion Matthew Justice, 44OH Member and Heavy Hitters 2 Tournament Winner Bobby Beverly, 3x H20 Champion Ron Mathis, death match sensation AKIRA, 2x Heavy Hitters Champion “Hoodfoot” Mo Atlas, former PPW Champion Cole Radrick, and 3X New South Champion Derek Neal.
The tournament will utilize a variety of unique rule-sets. The four First Round matches presented by PPW will be contested under Paradigm’s signature UWFi Rules – essentially a hybrid of mixed martial arts and professional wrestling; matches can be won via KO, TKO, Submission or points.
The four First Round matches presented by the OWA will be contested under Strong-Style Rules – meaning there’s relaxed rules and a 20 count on the outside – matches can be won via pinball, submission, count out, or disqualification. Each promotion will also sponsor one match each under hardcore rules.
The First Round winners will advance to The Gauntlet to crown an Undisputed Heavy Hitters Championship. Four entrants will start the match, with a new entrant entering each-time a competitor is eliminated. Eliminations may occur via KO, TKO, submission, or pinfall. The final elimination may only occur via knock-out or submission.
