-- There is amounting speculation that Marz will return to the TWF in the near future. TWF Executives have denied this, but Marz has been cutting back on independent bookings in the last couple of weeks.

-- The TWF computer system has been talked about a lot recently, but it received a well needed upgrade at the weekend, and Mr. BIG now has 3 PCs (personal & business laptop + desktop), therefore TWF Results will be very back to normal from now on.

-- The Halloween Hell Desktop has become the second most downloaded TWF Product of all time, just behind the TWF EWR 4 updates. An announcement is also expected this week as to whether to carry Total Extreme Warfare, the next edition of the EW Series.

-- The TWF and 'Stone Kold' Karl Davies come to an agreement to end his contract just after Summer Break. Davies is understood to have felt his time in the promotion needed to come to an end, and the family issues storyline used afterward is being used to explain it.

-- The Much underworked TWF Web will be re-done in the near future. More superstars are in the process of being added to the superstar's page.

TWF News and Rumors
Reply #32 - 29th Sep, 2003 at 4:03pm
There are no actions to perform.
-- An xWa Xtreme Overdose Card was leaked last week and preliminary indications show that there is a possible feud between Mr. BIG & Frekishi on the cards.

-- Other possible feuds see NJS & The AshTaker locking horns once more and The Bandit vs. Hawke in a longer feud than before. One match that has been confirmed however, is that RWF World Champion JCVS will face The Assassin in a one-on-one contest at the show.

-- Marz, who shocked almost everyone by showing up on TWF TV last week, has no contract with the promotion and if he spotted between 500 metres of a TWF Arena, he can be arrested.

-- The RWF has come to a stand-still once more. Rhys Reed, the owner has blamed the down-turn in general of the wrestling business for the company's hiatus. Mr. BIG is understood to have taken over booking duties of the promotion for the time being.

-- And finally, the news EVERYONE has been waiting for. Last week, at a press conference, NCW Vice Chairman The Shott announced that the company had ceased operations as it was working under a huge loss, reportedly of $7,500,000 (£5,000,000).

-- An overwhelming majority of TWF Staff have been invited to a birthday celebration on October 10th after RAW at Mr. BIG house, to celebrate Amii Taylor's, The Fox's and his birthdays. The party begins after RAW and will continue until the early hours.

-- Many TWF Superstars are becoming overwhelming fans of XCW, particularly after this week's Metal episode, which many have said was one of the best in quite some time.

-- NJS was not punished for his post Grit BasH antics a few weeks ago, as it was a first time offense. Mr. BIG has insisted that NJS cannot drink as many beers as he did ever again. It is reported NJS challenged some punters to an arm wrestling strip match, which he won and suffice to say, NJS was a happy man.

-- Beginning next week, TWF Superstars will beginning a run of TV/Radio/Newspaper interviews. Mr. BIG is expected to return to the Jonathan Ross Show, NJS is to become a guest presenter on Chris Moyles' Radio One show, and High Voltage will be interviewed for the The Times' newspaper's TV Supplement.

-- The TWF's East Coast tour appears to be getting off the ground and a possible slot is May next year, as Cyberslam 2004 is being held at the new Ford Field in Detroit. This is subject to availability however, as some are unsure if they stadium will be OK to hold the event. If not, Chicago's Soldier Field is being lined-up as a replacement.

-- Unlike previous US Events, the TWF will not miss a show as the wrestlers will fly out on Sunday evening, arriving at Orlando-Sanford International on Monday Morning. The problem used to be that the TWF had 3 shows, but since this was shortened to 2 almost a year ago, the problem ceased to exist.

-- Mr. BIG has confirmed that he was seen sitting down with Rachel Stevens at a McDonald's Restaurant in Bridgend 2 weeks ago. Biggie also confirmed that he and Holly have split up once more, and it is rumoured that she has fell out with upper management. Mr. BIG has said that since Rachel Stevens is engaged, he is not interested in her as much as he once was. Biggie is rumoured to be after girls off the wrestling circuit. No names have been mentioned.

-- Mr. BIG has also confirmed that he will absent from the TWF between January to March 2004 as he is having the second of three necessary operations on his shoulder. He also said that he will be having the treatment in America with a specialist at HealthSouth in Birmingham, Alabama. He will be able to go to his Florida home, which is where he will stay for around a month before returning to the UK to work off some ring-rust.

-- NJS has been quoted as saying that the xWa Development Camp is full of talent and expects names such as The Defender to become big stars. The TWF branch of the camp, The Asylum is said to be putting on an excellent standard of matches, which have attracted scouts from the likes of the FWA, RoH and NWA-TNA. The TWF has an agreement with each superstar, however, TNA and co. have been in negotiations to use some TWF stars.

-- Since Karl Davies' departure from the TWF a few weeks ago, names are being tossed back and fourth as his Seek And Destroy replacement. Marz, The Defender, The Shott and even Mr. BIG are being whispered as possibly being entered into the stable.

-- XCW's Halloween Chaos is clashing with TWF Halloween Chaos, however, the TWF event is being held at 2am UK time and as soon as the event ends, superstars on both shows will board the TWF's latest purchase...Concorde. (We bought 1 of them...and another 1 was bought for the xWa at the cut price of £2.2million)

-- The Shott is expected to be leaving the TWF after Dangerously Serious. There is a possibility that The Shott will get a TV show dedicated to him. The entire roster is sad to see him go, and we wish him the best in the future.

-- Linkin Park will be at Halloween Hell to perform the theme song 'Numb' and The Bandit's theme song, 'Somewhere I Belong'.

-- NJS will have a new theme song and video (after the y2j-ohmeter) on RAW. The new theme song is expected to be 'Away From Me' by Puddle of Mudd.

-- There is growing speculation that Mr. BIG will begin to re-use his classic 're-Arranged' theme on his return to the TWF.

-- The format of No Way BacK in March is beginning to develop. Many say that the show will be a showcase of the TWF's history. There is also talk of a possible Hall of Fame inductee for the event. 'Stone Kold' Karl Davies is possibly making a one-time appearance on the show.

-- Although he had excuses made up why he left, Davies left the TWF due to a severe knee injury. As a top-quality rugby player as well, he was not expected to last any longer using the knee and decided to leave the TWF and concentrate on other sports.

-- There is talk growing of a Cruiserweight Championship Tourney in the New Year. Jody Fleisch has violated the 40-days rule and the Championship has been vacated. A newer championship could be brought in it's place.

-- The XWF's return was well received in the locker room and the wrestlers are looking forward to Parental Advisory in February for their Inter-Promotional Matches.

-- Mr. BIG said in a radio-interview recently that his main aim, both in real-life and out of the ring is to be down to 13-14 stone by July 2004. He is currently 17 st 1 lb, the heaviest athlete in the TWF. High Voltage and Frekishi come a close second, it should be said.

-- There has been no TWF Programming over the past few weeks due to the fact there were some technical difficulties getting the show broadcast over the entire system via satellite. Channel 5 (five) experienced the same program when they broadcasted the Columbus Blue Jackets at Detroit Red Wings match on early Thursday Morning, which was when the TWF broadcasts were being sent to affiliates outside of the UK. However, the problem has been resolved and Dangerously Serious will be broadcasted live as always, with the TWF returning to a full program the week after it.

-- The subject of Holly reared it's ugly head once more this week when some online journalists were quoted as saying she could be making a return soon. In fact, a UK tabloid managed to snap Mr. BIG and Holly walking past each other on a Bridgend street on Friday afternoon. Biggie looked a little dejected and Holly was looking very guilty. They walked past each other without saying a word. There is still no idea as to if Holly will return. If she does, it is likely to cause some major arguments within the TWF.

-- Marz has been making amends lately. He and Mr. BIG were seen speaking this week on the subject of the new SmackDown! game for PS2 along with The Shott. The 3 men were having a good time as they were sitting down at a restaurant in Bridgend Town Centre on Friday afternoon.

-- NJS was spotted training some BCW students on Wednesday in the ring. He afterward said that he is hoping to maybe become a part-time trainer at the camp soon. NJS was seen telling students that Mr. BIG will be joining them next work to see some try-out matches and to aid them in certain areas. Both Biggie and NJS are proud of the legacy they have led in the amount of superstars they have brought to the TWF. Biggie and NJS have brought twice as many stars as Marz has to the TWF.

-- Rachel Stevens is said to enjoying her time as TWF Ring Announcer. There are rumours that she could however be dropped when her deal runs out after No Way BacK in March. There are replacements lined up, but Mr. BIG, NJS, High Voltage, JCVS, The Vamp, Atomically Kool Kat and Lita are vocal in keeping her onboard.

-- After an absence at last year's event, the annual TWF Royal Rumble looks set to be returning next year. A 20-man event will be held and the winner will get a free ticket to face the TWF World Champion at the TWF's Anniversary Show, No Way BacK. The event will take a new kind of importance as next March will see the TWF celebrate it's 5th anniversary.

-- Speculation is still mounting as to what the TWF's plans for No Way BacK are. A tribute is expected to the non-TWF superstars we have lost in the 5 years as well as a Countdown to the greatest TWF match of all time.

-- There are plans to release 'TWF Hall of Fame' Videos for of the inductees. They will be released on VHS, DVD and in a DVD Box Set. They will feature the inductees greatest matches and extra tidbits. The DVDs are scheduled for release in February 2004.

-- Dangerously Serious was well received in the back. There was a slight error on the internet coverage of the Bandit/JT Money vs. Hawke/Rhys Evans match, but that was corrected the following day.

-- High Voltage recently confronted Mr. BIG about Marz. HV stated that Mr. BIG should not have anything to do with Marz. Biggie has only stated that he has welcomed Marz back to the TWF. HV was very angry about this and as soon as we get more on that story, we will inform you.

-- There will be the usual Xmas Break for TWF Superstars following PayBack. The superstars have post PayBack until January 2nd off. January 2nd is the date the wrestlers meet up for the first time for the TWF RAW Best of 2003 Awards Ceremony.

-- Good Charlotte are rumoured to be providing music for a new TWF Passion Commercial.

-- Trapt, Finger Eleven & Disturbed will headline a TWF Awards 2003 post-show party to be shown on xWn.

-- There was a major argument between some Road Agents and Mr. BIG, The Bandit & The Fox. The Road Agents were giving Mr. BIG some stick regarding an incident just prior to Grit BasH where Mr. BIG asked out a girl on a date and she said 'maybe'. The Road Agents stated Mr. BIG looked kinky in speedos, which got Bandit involved since Mr. BIG never wrote, said or even thought such a statement. The Fox then got involved as he knew some of the road agents personally and knew they were lieing. NJS was also involved, but he apologised to Mr. BIG straight after ward, although NJS was silent through out the entire altercation.

-- The Mr. BIG interview on Grit BasH was recorded 'as-live'. Mr. BIG was @ his home to do the segment, but received an offer from a friend to attend Grit BasH backstage. Mr. BIG was not shown on TV as it was thought it would kill his return angle.

-- In case anyone is wondering, Mr. BIG is still in pain and is doing some extensive re-hab and is not due back before Easter HeAT 2004.

-- More on the HV/Mr. BIG situation. HV was said to be angry at Mr. BIG's kind words toward Marz. Mr. BIG has since told HV, that it was only fitting he welcomes Marz back into the TWF, but nothing else. Biggie even told Marz that if he is going to rescue his career, he must behave and improve as a wrestler.

-- There was no Grit BasH this week as almost half the roster went down with some form of flu, cold or virus. Many stars have however healed and RAW is expected to be on.

-- There was also a major innocent today regarding Mr. BIG and Frekishi. Biggie was Frekishi were having a real verbal go at each other right the way through a charity soccer match. The two men were really going at each other. Other TWF stars present said it was shocking to hear the two 'friends' outside the ring have such an argument. This, supposedly, stems back from an incident which we reported last week regarding a scuffle with Road Agents. Frekishi is said to have made some real nasty comments about Biggie, which he hopes to set straight this week.

-- Prior to this match, Mr. BIG and High Voltage bumped into their old friend 'Stone Kold' Karl Davies. SKKD said he is not looking at an immediate return, but he is now not ruling it out completely.

-- Some people are saying that the TWF is close to releasing Matthew Jones' contract. He has angered some TWF staff and roster members over the few weeks and is said to be treading a thin line.

-- The TWF are also close to letting go of some other superstars, say reports, however, no names have been mentioned.

-- Prior to RAW tonight, there was another big bust-up between Mr. BIG and Frekishi with some slight physicality involved. That is all we know right now. We believe it stems back to the same incident which caused them to clash during a charity soccer match yesterday.

-- Mr. BIG was seen at a local gym prior to RAW as well, training with what looked like a group of friends. Biggie had to run 6x around 2 rugby pitches and did a very respectable time, which earned the kudos of everyone around.

-- NJS is these days keeping to himself and Lita backstage. He would usually hang around with Mr. BIG, but as Biggie has not been attending shows, NJS has been acting quite strange around some people. It's probably just a side-effect of losing your road-buddy.

-- NJS, on a lighter note, was seen once more training students at BCW and later The Asylum this week. The students were extremely impressed and the trainers said NJS has improved morale in both the Development and Training Camps.

-- Mr. BIG stated recently in an interview for a magazine that he will be making 3 more TV appearances on TWF TV before his full-time return.

-- Mr. BIG has also started organising a New Years Partee for his friends. A list of people scheduled to be there includes NJS, High Voltage and The Shott. Frekishi is a notable absentee.

-- The card for the New Year Partee PPV will be announced at the TWF Best of 2003 Awards on January 2nd 2004.

-- Take this as only speculation, but Mr. BIG maybe appearing on Grit BasH or RAW this week to set up a possible angle for his return.

-- The xWn may again be undergoing a name change. To reflect the network's overall schedule, it could be renamed the xSn (xtreme Sports network). This is only speculation as the rebranding from xWa Network to xWn has already cost the xWa almost $2million.

-- Mr. BIG maybe getting new theme music on his return. He is all but confirmed to get the first release from Disturbed's new CD as his theme song when it is released. 'Good Times' by Finger Eleven is being touted as being what it will be.

-- *SPOILER*
The TWF usually tests transmissions the day before, 2 1/2 and 1 hour before an event. When the TWF tested it's last transmission, today, Marz's video was shown, as was a graphic displaying a possible new match for PayBack...Mr. BIG vs. Mr. Edwards in a Video Game Contest. These could all be fake or real. No one is quite sure.

-- After Grit BasH yesterday, there was a huge fight between Mr. BIG and Frekishi backstage. Frekishi had provoked Mr. BIG and Biggie retaliated with a huge right hand and almost choked Frekishi before they were separated by The Shott & High Voltage. Mr. BIG is being perceived as the innocent party in all of this.

-- Many people are said to be pleased with the direction the TWF is heading in for 2004. Let's not forget that we were all optimistic about this year but it hasn't quite gone to plan.

-- Mr. BIG's TV Appearance is slated to be a one-off and he will probably not be at PayBack on-air. After Xmas, Biggie will go back to rehabbing and getting ready for an in-ring return. His first possible match is possibly going to be in February 2004 in BCW against it's top prospect in a non-televised match.

-- NJS, The Shott, High Voltage, The AshTaker, JT Money, Hawke and Marz are all extremely pleased with their top-tier feuds in the past few weeks.

-- The TWF is expected to do another set of specials in the run-up to Xmas...
Wednesday Dece 24th - Best of TWF Grit BasH
Friday Dece 26th - Best of TWF RAW

Monday Dece 28th - xWa's Greatest HiTz
Wednesday Dece 31st - Best of 2002
Friday Jan 2nd 2004 - Best of 2003

Rumours to Spice Up 2004...
Reply #44 - 29th Dec, 2003 at 4:26pm
There are no actions to perform.
This is an update to wet all your appetites for the year ahead (2004)...

-- The hostility between Mr. BIG and Frekishi is growing as the days go slowly by. Despite Frekishi's efforts to make peace, Biggie is not giving Frekishi what he wants. This Xmas, Biggie has done not a lot besides stay up until 4am playing Need For Speed Underground and visit family and close friends. Biggie has also stated to friends that he is not gonna make amends when he returns to the ring.

-- Rivers, the former XWF (Vice) President managed to contact Mr. BIG & The Bandit about a possible XWF re-union show in 2004. It is almost 4 years since the XWF made it's first steps, and an 'all-star' cast is expected...this includes Mr. BIG, Bandit, Ottobomb, The Overnight Male, Iranker & Rage, Big Sexy Badass & Silver, Disturbed Gregg Allen and many more.

-- NJS recently signed a contract to become a trainer at the TWF(-xWa) Asylum. He is expected to take up part time duties, although he will not lose any in-ring time.

-- NJS and Lita's wedding plans are going well. NJS hopes the ceremony will be held in Florida in May, around the time of Cyberslam. He is expected to have his honeymoon in the Caribbean or in Florida. He will get around 3 weeks off to have his honeymoon.

-- High Voltage and Blade recently had a bust-up over the holidays. HV was invited to Mr. Edwards's girlfriend's party, but Blade said he wanted to go, despite not being invited. Jean Claude Van Slam instead showed up and was Biggie's sole guest. A good time was had be all, to add to HV's fury.

-- Marz & The Shott were said to be having a good time over Xmas from what sources say. The Shott was said to be enjoying his last Christmas around friends before moving to Blackpool in March 2004.

-- No one is quite sure what kind of contract Marz has signed. He is understood to be on a day-by-day contract, whereas he can be fired very quickly. However, Marz's behaviour has taken a back-seat due to Frekishi and Matthew Jones's behaviour, which have taken priority.

-- Rumours from inside the TWF Board Room say that Frekishi and Matthew Jones will be given one month to improve their behaviour before their contracts are terminated.

-- The TWF Best of 2003 Awards RAW Special is being held at The Hardkore Café on the top floor of The Bridgend Dome. There will be a tribute payed to those who have lost in the world of wrestling this year, and there will also be a tribute payed to the legendary British Comedian Bob Monkhouse, who was going to host the show, but died on Monday at the age of 75 after a lengthy battle with cancer.

-- There are still tickets left for people to watch the awards in The Dome, there are thought to be around 100-200 tickets left. There is also a table yet to be filled, but that's for the winners of a competition organised by 106.3 BridgeFM.

-- Some TWF Stars may make appearances at the AHL & NHL All-Star Games in February.
