Holmes Report: 10.31.2014

Breaking News!
EWS.com can confirm that tonight, Excelsior Sports & Entertainment has successfully negotiated an exclusive rights contract with Wrestling Star TOA, securing that his brand will be exclusive to EWS. This type of contract is only the third in companies history (and 2nd currently active) behind Magnum Wolf and Samuel Tate before him. This type of contract means the parent company of EWS now owns the rights to TOA in the EWS Universe. And when the time is right, he will be able to negotiate with any brand within the EWS banner, similar to Magnum Wolf currently.

There is no word yet when Toa will debut, or where he will choose to go for that matter. What we can confirm however is TOA has signed with EWS!

In addition to EWS Signing TOA to an exclusive Excelsior Sports & Entertainment contract, we can confirm that Excelsior Sports & Entertainment has signed another wrestler to an exclusive contract. Joining Magnum Wolf and TOA is the first female signed to an Exclusive Excelsior Sports & Entertainment Contract, Olivia Paige!

Paige, most recently seen in CCW, physically dominating the Woman's Division, EWS was quick to sign up this hot young rookie. Paige is a student of the game and a former Training Partner of former PWR Southern Heavyweight Champion CROSS and current EWS World Woman's Champion Taylor Grace.

Where she will end up is still unconfirmed at this point, but early thought expects her to become involved in the PWR Bombshells Division. Rumor is the board of directors of PWR is salivating at the thought of a Olivia Paige / Kendra Rayne match. More on this as it becomes available.

Breaking News!
We here at the Holmes report have learned that the parent company of Excelsior Wrestling Society, EXCELSIOR SPORTS & ENTERPRISES has negotiated and signed an Exclusive Contract with wrestling superstar Darkness. Darkness had been working without a contract after her contract expired in October. Darkness becomes the fourth active roster member behind Magnum Wolf, Toa, and Olivia Paige to join this exclusive membership. (5th overall) This means that Darkness is free to wrestle with any company under the Excelsior Umbrella and/or multiple companies (Ala Magnum Wolf)

In addition to this news, as announced on The AXW Supershow, AXW has negotiated a contract with the brother of former Adrenaline Champion David Slayton; bringing rookie Jeremy Slayton aka Jay Blazenwing into the company. This comes on the heels of the announcement of the folding of BWF.

Breaking News!
As seen on BWF Television: Havok, Ep: 185, January 16th 2015.

The Moment You've Been Waiting For

The crowd in Chicago pops loudly as Scott Benjamin introduces the man Wrestling News Now outed a few days prior, Rick Leban, Director of Wrestling Operations for BWF affiliate Excelsior Wrestling Society. Leban stands on the stage, mic in hand, and announces that the rumors are partially true - he himself is merely the go-between for the new majority shareholder of the BWF... EWS' Simon Excelsior!

Nick Webb: Simon Excelsior!? You've gotta be kidding me! This is HUGE!

Rayne: Does that mean BWF is a part of EWS now?

Leban goes on to explain that BWF would continue on as an affiliate of the Excelsior Wrestling Society instead of becoming an official part, but that with the closer ties between the companies now, talent exchanges would be possible, so as to avoid EWS competitors like AXW's David Slayton and Las Vegas Fury's Starla Gardevoir skirting breach of contract by showing up on BWF programming dressed up in costume.

Rayne: I TOLD YOU THAT WAS DAVE AND KATIE AT GAUNTLET RUN!

Nick Webb: Oy.

Leban explained to the crowd that EWS and BWF hope to continue to forge a mutually beneficial partnership in the future, and that Simon Excelsior's new position was not one of a takeover; rather, he intends to see BWF thrive as its own entity as it has done for the previous decade plus. To that end, on behalf of Mr. Excelsior, Rick Leban is proud to introduce the BWF fans to the new co-Directors of Operation who will oversee the BWF's day-to-day operation... Jackson and Elise Wyatt!

Meet The Wyatts

Rick Leban steps aside as "Crocodile Rock" by Elton John hits the BlazenTron and Elise Wyatt steps out onto the stage, followed closely by Jackson. They shake Leban's hand, then watch him head back through the curtain before Jackson and Elise make their way to the ring.

Nick Webb: Co-Directors of Operation! We haven't had a married couple in charge since Dave and Jen ran things together back in the day!

Rayne: Damn, are you sure they're married? Maybe she's just a really close sibling with a thing for retired wrestlers slash color commentators!

Nick Webb: Check the rings, buddy.

Rayne: Pfft, yeah, cause I was looking at her hands.

As the music dies down, Jackson and Elise introduce themselves to the BWF fans in attendance. They are indeed married, much to Rayne's disappointment, and have been BWF fans since the company first began airing shows back in 2003. They took jobs with EWS a few years back, worked their way up the corporate ladder behind the scenes, and proved themselves enough that Simon Excelsior was willing to give them this incredible opportunity. One thing Mr. Excelsior was adamant about, and they totally understand why, is that whoever was put in charge of BWF would do so with a neutral mindset.

Nick Webb: Thank the lord!

Both Jackson and Elise talked about how abuse of power ran rampant in BWF for years, from David Blazenwing to Cody Clark to Wade Mason and even as recently as Emily Corlen. Speaking of Emily, Elise was quick to note that despite things ending the way they did at WrestleFest, both her and Jackson were impressed with her effort at the event and wanted to take this moment to officially offer Emily a contract to compete with the BWF - but only as a competitor. She'll have until the end of the January 30 pay-per-view, Survival of the Sickest, to give The Wyatts her official answer.

Rayne: YES! Now, convince my Lizzie bear to re-sign with BWF and you'll be my favorite people ever!

Onto Survival of the Sickest itself. Jackson explained how both he and his wife wanted to make a splash with their first BWF pay-per-view. The situation almost wrote itself, what with the official cancellation of Crisis (which, Elise was quick to note, was not Johnny Maverick's fault at all, Jay Blazenwing!) there were now two World Champions on one weekly program. How to rectify the situation? They needed to only look to the name of the pay-per-view - and the past. In 2007 at Survival of the Sickest, the BWF World Championship, then vacant, was decided in an Elimination Chamber Match. To date, BWF has not hosted another Chamber Match, and both husband and wife agree that eight years is more than long enough. At Survival of the Sickest, the BWF World Championship and Crisis World Championship will be unified inside the Elimination Chamber!

Nick Webb: WOW! Awesome!

But who would be in that Chamber Match? Obviously the Champions, Elena Simonova and Johnny Maverick have their tickets punched to the main event because, as Elise put it, "they're bringing the party favors". That leaves four remaining spots. The first open spot goes to former BWF World Champion Zoe Cooper, who lost the title under a storm of controversy and never got a chance to regain it. The second goes to Gabe Shelley, who faced a similar situation when he was cost the Crisis World Title by AJ Adams, then immediately traded to Havok. The third spot, in fact, goes to that very man - AJ Adams, former two-time BWF World Champion, Conqueror of Hellbound and perennial top contender. That's five, but what about the final spot?

Rayne: Okay, okay, you guys twisted my arm. I guess I'll join the Chamber Match. It sounds to me like it's lacking major star power!

Nick Webb: You're ridiculous!

After much deliberation and discussion, Jackson and Elise decided that they just can't decide who should get the final spot in the Elimination Chamber... so they would let the BWF superstars duke it out instead! Tonight's special BWF debut will only feature one huge match, but what a match it will be - the entire BWF will compete in an over the top rope battle royal, with the last man or woman standing earning entry into the main event of Survival of the Sickest! And that match starts right after the break... but first, one final announcement. BWF will continue to travel around for large scale pay-per-view events, but going forward, every episode of BWF Havok will officially air from the company's new home arena... the Allstate Arena in Chicago, Illinois! The fans in Chicago cheer loudly at this announcement as "Crocodile Rock" cues up again and The Wyatts make their way out of the ring and up the ramp.

Nick Webb: An Elimination Chamber unification match, a new home arena for BWF, a new majority shareholder for the company, new co-Directors of Operation and even the possibility of Emily Corlen returning to action as an official BWF competitor... wow! So much just went down in BWF!

Rayne: And even more is about to! We're gonna have us a big ol' battle royal... right after this! Don't go anywhere!

Nick Webb: Hey, that's my line!

In an update to my earlier report, I can now confirm, EWS: Las Vegas Fury will be debuting on ESPN2, starting with Episode #39, following the Battleborn PPV. Fury will be the lead brand to debut on ESPN2, and with the right numbers, there is potential for expansion to other brands under the EWS Umbrella.

Breaking News! - EWS Programming on ESPN2 Update
Posted Image
This Sunday was to mark the debut of EWS Wrestling on the ESPN2 Network. With the recent announcement of a hiatus to wrestling operations, save for the AXW: RISE PPV July 19th, one has to wonder what will become of the deal reached with ESPN2 for new original content.

The Holmes Report reached out to EWS management for a quote, and were told that EWS would be moving forward with new and original content for the debut this weekend on ESPN2. It is unknown at this point what that means, but stay tuned!
