In a few short days on April 3rd, Britannia Wrestling Promotions will descend on Silverdale, Stoke-on-Trent for the Silverdale Eliminator. A unique concept to the show, as the entire show will be a tournament to crown the first contender for the soon to be introduced BWP Championship!
The tournament will feature 4 first round matches, with the winners of these single matches advancing to the tournament grand final, in a fatal four way elimination match. Wrestlers will be eliminated by pinfall or submission, and the last man standing will be the #1 contender to the BWP Championship, and will advance to the BWP Title match at a later date.
That’s the excitement for the BWP Silverdale Eliminator at the Silverdale WMC on April 3rd, but what of the competitiors themselves? Here are the eight men in with a shot of being crowned #1 Contender at Silverdale Eliminator!
Seb Winterz
Very little is known about this giant Siberian Psycho, but after an impressive debut at a show in Llanwrtyd Wells last month, Seb Winterz could be considered one of the favourites. A man posessed with a brutal hard hitting style, Seb Winterz could be one to watch for the future.
One thing to note is that his Transiberian Express partner – Night Stalker – could play a part.
On his first round opponent – Angelos: Mince meat…. Light work…. take your pick of pathetic british sayings from this pestilant little country. If I were Nelos, I would not come near stoke on the 3rd of April… I will destroy him in the ring. I will out wrestle him, out smart him and prove my dominance not only as a tag team wrestler but as a singles competitor aswell.
On who he would like to face in the final: I do not care who I face in the finals, I only care about winning the BWP title and being the most terrifying and manical force in this company. However it would be very fitting to meet The Metal in the final of this competition, because after I destroy his brother in my qualifying match, to will be very poetic to single handedly take care of that tag team!
METAL… NELOS… I GOT THE TASTE OF YOUR BLOOD 2 WEEKS AGO AND I LIKE IT, DON’T BE SUPRISED IF YOU SEE ME BEFORE THE SHOW ON APRIL 3RD BECAUSE I DON’T THINK I CAN WAIT THAT LONG BEFORE I GET SOME MORE!
Angelos
After being pinned by Seb Winterz last month, the charismatic and talented Angelos petitioned to BWP owner Steve Saxon to face him in one on one action. Impressed with the fire and determination
Himself newcomer to both the BWP, Angelos will be keen to get on the win sheet, and prove to himself, and his ever growing fanbase that he is not just a pretty face and flashy moves, but he can get the job done.
On his first round opponent – Seb Winterz: Sebastian Winterz is a monster of a man with agility as well as raw power who also got the better of me at Llanwrtyd Wells.
But the way i see it, he had the Night Stalker do all the work and when he was in trouble he brought the siberian psycho in to keep the metal and myself down, now one on one we’ll see if the russian grim reaper can make me play russian roulette Or will I hit the Jackpot?!
On who he would like to face in the final: There are two people i’d like to face in the final, either El Destello as he seems to be the top guy in the BWP and i would like to test my self against the best.
And of course the second person would be The Metal. There is no reason needed!
Metal
The youngest man in the tournament at just 17 years old, Metal is the other half of The Supernaturals with Angelos, and is Angelos’ younger brother. Metal had an impressive showing at his first show, and as such Steve Saxon has put him in the Elimination Tournament. One half of the most popular tag team of Metal will have his work cut out to win the Elimination tournament, but there is no questioning his heart, and who knows how far this unproven youngster could go at Silverdale?
On his first round opponent – The Red Dragon: Red Dragon is a big man theres no doubt about it. And im sure when people see him,then they see me, there going to assume the match is already over..But i didn’t get to the BWP lying down and thinking size was an issue..So come April 3rd, don’t think me the underdog..Think ME the one HE should be afraid of.
On who he would like to face in the final: First and most of all i’d like to meet Sebastian Winterz in the final 4, but he of course will first have to meet my fist. Apart from that any will do,i’ll gladly try and take on the best. Even if that means my own brother..I’m sure he’ll understand.
El Destello
In the last decade, El Destello has been dominating the UK ranks of professional wrestling. The native of Guadalajara, Mexico, El Destello was trained by the legendary El Bandito. Never far from his trusty cane, and having previous experience on winning knockout tournaments, El Destello is considered a huge favourite. However, depending on who joins him in the Elimination match, the lethal luchador, by his sheer lack of friends in the locker room, could find himself eliminated very quickly.
On his first round opponent – “G-Man” Simon Gaytley: Ah mi Gios of all the stars i could have faced in the opening round, i get that sick freak Gaytley! You see amigo, it does not matter who i got in the first round, El Destello is going through the Eliminator final and will then go on to become the number 1 contender for the BWP strap homes! Sadly for Gaytley he has drawn the short straw man, he is not only facing the Lethal Luchador in the Eliminator, but our match has been set as a no DQ match man, romperé este niño – Gaytley won’t know what has hit him, and Stoke on Trent will be begging to see more of El Destello!
On who he would like to face in the final: Quién cuidados man, who gives a dam, whether it is Tommy Gunn, The Red Dragon or any of the other perdedores in this tournament, El Destello will walk over them all and claim the number 1 contenders slot – and then, take my place as the rightful BWP Champion!
The Red Dragon
The biggest man in the tournament. The man from the hills & the valleys of North Wales could be considered another “big” favourite. The Red Dragon has been traveling the length & breadth of the UK, destroying all comers in every major city in the UK. His brutal style has been refined by Orig Williams and Klondyke Kate, and what better way to cement his ascent up the rankings that for this hungry 21 year old to be named #1 contender for the BWP Title?
“G-Man” Simon Gaytley
Could we see a rather effeminate #1 contender come midnight on April 3rd? If the G-Man has is way, we may do. The superstar who is the longest in the shower may just unnerve his fellow competitors enough so he can walk all over them to the #1 contendership. But don’t let his in ring antics fool you, he’s one tough cookie in his own right.
On his first round opponent – El Destello: There is only one word that can accurately describe El Destello…..DEVIANT!
The last time we met (view a video of it here) , we were back and forth, literally beating each other off, until eventually i was on top, hammering him both in and out of the ring. He however came on top, when, as the ref’ was distracted, he got behind me, took his big weapon in both hands. As i turned to face him he drove his weapon at me with full force and proceeded to bang me in the mouth with it!
Before i knew it i was flat on my back, and he had me, right there in the middle of the ring!
This time i’m going to make sure we do things properly….no disqualification! He’d better have his weapon at the ready…because i’m bringing mine…and i know how to use it!
On who he would like to face in the final: The Red Dragon is another man who i’ve had in the ring on occasion but has always managed to beat me off! Up until now red dragon has always been a bit too much for the g-man to handle! I mean this man is huge!
This time I have a game plan…not going into details…but lets just say the G-man always ends up on top!
Jay Icon
This 6′5″ competitor from Birmingham towers over most of the competition, and has a wealth of experience for this tournament. Already successful in singles competition in the BWP, in a match where he suffered a knee injury. He has proven he can win against the odds, can he do it in Stoke and become the #1 Contender?
Tommy Gunn
Little is known of this popular, high flying youngster from the Midlands. Tommy Gunn has been wowing crowds throughout the midlands, and he will be appearing at the BWP Silverdale Elimination. An unknown enigma, it is impossible to say just how far – if anywhere – this youngster will go in this tournament.
