Changes
and promos galore!
(posted February 17, 2012) |
 |
Plenty
has been happening in the past week, with the posting of the first
four promos for our show on March 3. Jarek Craven is looking forward
to his title shot and clearly feels he has turned the corner, but
Ryan O'Hare is super confident in their third meeting. Commissioner
Phil Gluyas is frustrated and is ready to take further action, but
Iron Horse Morrison and Paul Vaughan are not budging and seem to
have something up their sleeve! The playlist for the March 3 promos
can be found on our You Tube channel;

Big
Huss has been forced by work commitments to pull out of the show,
and his place against Andy Rhodes has been taken by Insano. In
addition, Morphine and Tre have changed their team name to the Burn
City Cliq.
Hopefully
more promos will appear in the next few days, and the full preview
should be on site over this coming weekend.

The
return of the Sheik
(posted February 9, 2012) |
 |
In
a shock development that has taken N.A.W by surprise, Sheik Mohammed
El Zacqwi, the former Heavyweight and South Pacific champion, has
returned after an absence of two and a half years. He had been
deported but his legal eagles have got around the problem and he has
made his presence felt straight away by buying out Jake Lindo and
taking his shot at the South Pacific in the process.
An
infuriated Commissioner Phil Gluyas was quick to react by firing
Lindo on the spot, but he is at present unable to do anything about
the change in the card.
The
Sheik caused a lot of havoc last time he was here, but as he had the
then Commissioner in his back pocket he got away with a lot. Gluyas
has made it clear that he won't be pushed around by the Middle
Eastern loudmouth.

Building
to the Winds of Change
(posted February 8, 2012) |
 |
The build has started for
the first Albion show for 2012, with the four matches signed and
confirmed at Melton Mayhem II.
Commissioner Phil Gluyas
is busy working on the remainder of the card, while continuing to
solidify the administration of New Age Wrestling. It's proving to be
a difficult task. Gluyas has indicated however that there may not be
a women's match at all as he has been informed that Vixsin will in
fact be accompanying Mad Dog McCrea to Japan, and he is also having
trouble getting in touch with TJ Star. With Lowzen on the shelf,
Nikita Naridian may not have an opponent for the March show.
Gluyas
is also weighing up his options regarding the future of Iron Horse
Morrison after what happened at Melton Mayhem II. Many are tipping a
suspension for the big man.
In
the coming days it is expected that more matches will be announced
and the full preview should be posted soon.

Breaking
News - Change to the Melton card
(posted January 20, 2012) |
|
Commissioner Phil Gluyas
has announced that there will be a third man in the match for the
number one contendership making the match a triple threat contest.
Joining Jarek Craven and Insano in the match up will be;
BIG HUSS!!
This is huge news. Huss
has been in Japan and it was rumoured that he would be staying
there. But he has returned home and when Gluyas heard that he was
available, the Commissioner wasted no time adding Huss to the
heavyweight title contenders match. This was clearly to make up for
Huss's loss of his previous contendership status to Josh Extreme at
Line in the Sand last September, and it will change the game plans
of both Craven and Insano.

Injury
Update
(posted January 18, 2012) |
 |
N.A.W
has received an update on the injury status of former two time
Women's champion, Lowzen. She was forced to leave the triple threat
match at the Christmas Bash early after Vixsin re-injured her
already vulnerable shoulder. This injury has a history going back to
June 2011 when she first hurt it during the special match when she
teamed with George Julio against her ex boyfriend Iron Horse
Morrison. The problem was exacerbated by her sister Nikita Naridian
during the match in which Nikita took the women's title from Lowzen.
Despite continuing
issues, Lowzen continued to wrestle but she hurt the shoulder again
after crashing through a table during the Street Fight at War Games
in November. The attack by Vixsin in the match at the last show was
the final straw.
Over the Christmas/New
Year break, Lowzen underwent surgery and had a shoulder
reconstruction. The prognosis is very good, provided Lowzen uses the
time to rest the shoulder properly it should be 100 percent. This
will take some time so we will not be seeing Lowzen in action in the
foreseeable future. N.A.W hopes that she will be back in the ring
later in 2012 sometime.

Melton
Mayhem II card and preview
(posted January 10, 2012) |
|
The
full card has now been formally announced and it's another packed
eight match card for N.A.W's return to Melton on February 4 at the
Melton Darts Centre. Along with the matches noted on the poster,
there is also a tag team title match and heaps of other action. The
first row is already booked and we are still a little less that four
weeks from the big event! So hurry up and book!
The
preview has also been posted.

We
need referees!
(posted January 3, 2012) |
 |
After
running the Christmas Bash with just one referee and likely Melton
Mayhem II as well, Commissioner Phil Gluyas has put out the
following statement;
"It
is extremely difficult to run a show with only one referee. I can't
don the zebra stripes myself on a regular basis, and we seem to have
quite a shortage in general of referees around Melbourne. So I have
arranged some time at the NAW training facility in order to take on
the job of training some new ones. It's not an easy job and only
truly dedicated people get to be a referee."
Applications
can be sent either to N.A.W at the email address at the top of this
page, or to the commissioner direct at commish@philgluyas.com.
Only serious applications will be accepted and you must be fit and
healthy and have a fairly strong interest in the business of
professional wrestling.

Welcome
to 2012
(posted January 1, 2012) |
 |
It's
a new year and New Age Wrestling is looking forward to 2012 to 11
dates booked for the year, and an updated look to this website in
order to streamline some updating functions, fix some issues with
communications and improve the look.
We
have also added the title histories to the archives section, and
expanded the community section to include links to other websites
such as the You Tube channels of Alexi Papadopolous, Mickey Jackson,
Andy Rhodes and referee Edwin Lay as well as the personal websites of members of
the N.A.W roster. At present there are only two - for Mickey Jackson
and the Commissioner
Phil Gluyas.
Melton
Mayhem II is a little over a month away and we are already taking
bookings.

Official
You Tube channel changes
(posted December 19, 2011) |
 |
New
Age Wrestling is delighted to announce that we have finally been
able to re-activate our original You Tube channel. Access was
restricted in late 2009 and this is partly why a new channel was
created to present our videos in more recent times.
However
these issues have now been resolved. The videos from our new channel
have now been moved to the original and it will no longer have
videos added. Playlists includes material like the past highlights
packages (which should include the delayed Melton highlights from
October 22 very soon as well as the delayed Zero Hour highlights
from November 12 and the highlights from the Christmas Bash), and
promos for Line in the Sand, Rules of Engagement, Zero Hour and War
Games.
The
new channel is;

The
woes of being Commissioner
(posted November 30, 2011) |
|
Some
changes have been made to the card for the December 10 show, and
commissioner Phil Gluyas is reportedly a little frustrated at the
issues that are coming up now that he is in control. He told the
N.A.W website;
"I knew I was going to be in for a hard time, but I must say I
didn't expect it this soon. It reminds me a lot of what I saw while
I was umpiring football. People pulling out at the last minute for
various reasons - some quite fair but others highly suspect. I'm not
going to comment at this point on the changes in any detail until I
speak to a few people, but needless to say I never like making last
minute changes, least of all to my first show at the tiller!"
Facebook
will be an interesting read over the next week and a half. The
preview for the December 10 show has been adjusted accordingly.

Website
update
(posted November 23, 2011) |
 |
N.A.W
apologises for the late update to the website after the biggest show
in history this past weekend in Mulgrave. Computer issues that
prevented this are now under control and there should be some fresh
updates by the end of the coming weekend.
New
commissioner Phil Gluyas is presently cleaning up the mess left
behind by the regime of James Jackson and the now defunct Seven
Deadly Sins and has already confirmed the two matches on the
Christmas Bash poster for December 10. But we advise that as a
result of the mess, there will not be a show at all in January 2012
and Albion will not host a show until at least March unless
something can be arranged otherwise.
The
date for the next show at Melton has been confirmed for February 4,
2012. We are also planning for other venues but no specifics can be
confirmed as of yet. In the past, N.A.W have held shows in St.Albans,
Dingley and even Hobart, Tasmania. 2012 will be an exciting year.

Iron
Horse Morrison issues more threats
(posted November 17, 2011) |
 |
In
the week leading up to War Games, the videos are coming out with
Iron Horse Morrison making a number of claims with a primary focus
on Lobo, along with a few choice words for Team N.A.W manager Phil
Gluyas.
When
this video initially appeared on Facebook, Gluyas was quick to claim
that he had a camera and that a reply would appear soon. As of this
news posting the reply has not yet been seen. You
can view Iron Horse's video at the following link;

Ryan
Rollins was born and bred in Mulgrave. He even trained at the
Southern Reserve, where the Southern Community Centre is located, in
his younger days. His return there along with Nikita Naridian is the
subject of a story in this week's Waverley Leader.
