The Rage is Hardcore!
TPW NEWS
Jesse"The Rage"Rogers becomes TPW's new Hardcore Champion!
On Sept. 1st 2008 Jesse "The Rage" Rogers became the new TPW Hardcore Champion after submitting Arab Assassin in a "Finisher" Match.
The match was set up to be J-FOO's first title defense. The Triple-Threat "Finisher" Match did not go the former champ's way.
Although J-FOO did the Cutter on Arab onto a chair...he did not pin him in time when Jesse broke up any chance for J-FOO to retain the Hardcore title.
Jesse"The Rage"Rogers then pulled off a Deadbolt Lock submission finisher to end the match with Arab tapping out, even though he was only an inch away from the ropes.
When asked how he felt on his loss J-FOO answered passionately: "I finally got to be Hardcore Champion, so what...there is a new title I'm focused on and that's to be "King of TPW"!
Jesse"The Rage"Rogers had this to say:
"I didn't know about the match until I arrived to TPW that day. I have said I was going to the Hardcore Division but didn't expect to win the championship just like that! It is a good feeling to have held two titles here in TPW."
Arab Assassin briefly spoke to our interviewer:
"I have lost my chance to re-claim what is mine, once again. I feel I must re-start, re-train, and re-focus my mind to a setting in which I am the one force that is constant and everlasting in victory. I may take some time off of TPW and will be asking for my release shortly here after."
This all started with the vacated title from Lazy Biggio, after he refused to speak about a title match discussion, then did not finish out a TPW taping . LB understood the title holder's rights and was stripped of his title.
That same taping J-FOO squared off against Arab Assassin for the vacant TPW Hardcore Title. J-FOO came out the victor and was to defend his newly gained title at the next taping. Maybe it was just bad luck but J-FOO then lost his title in his first title defense on Monday. Now "The Rage" is champion, but some say there is a challenger in the distance...a former champion wanting to re-claim his title...who can it be?Other news:
