NAPW news to kick-off the New Year!
2007 ended with a bang for New Alberta Pro Wrestling. After a short holiday break, NAPW returns on 1/22 in Calgary and 1/29 in Edmonton!
ONE NIGHT ONLY
The biggest news to start 2008 is clearly the one-night reunion of THE NEW & IMPROVED D-X. It was one year ago that Stylin' Kyle Roberts turned his back on Bruce "The Beast" Richards. The two engaged in a bloody feud and then Kyle Roberts packed his bags and headed off to REBEL Pro Wrestling. Both Roberts and Richards attained top singles gold in their respective promotions over the year.
Interestingly enough, both members of D-X engaged in separate feuds with Donovan Astros. The issues between Richards, Roberts and Astros (and now Jake Phoenix) have led to the one-night reunion of D-X to take on the MURDER CITY DEVILS of Astros and Phoenix on the 1/29 card! This will be one of the biggest matches in NAPW history. The question is, what kind of teamwork will Roberts and Richards be able to display, especially with all the bad blood that still exists between them? After all... Never Trust The Beast.
END OF YEAR INJURY REPORT
-The Expositioner, thanks to a brutal attack from the Sexy Adorable Drunks, had to undergo an emergency tracheometry in the aftermath of Black Thursday III. NAPW-Online has learned that Expositioner was recently discharged from the hospital but is far from being medically cleared to wrestle.
-Andrew Rossi has returned to his home in New York to recuperate from the severe neck injury he suffered at the hands of Dan Ryan.
-Dez Carter is dealing with a sore shoulder, but will not miss any time.
-Bruce "The Beast" Richards is experiencing a flare-up in his old knee injury, but should be ready to go for the 1/22 card.
RUMOURS
-Ian Smith, new manager to tag champions Sexy Adorable Drunks, apparently isn't done recruiting NAPW wrestlers into his camp. NAPW-online can confirm that Smith has contacted several top talent and made offers to join his management company Smith, Inc. Ian's first act in NAPW gained the SAD the tag titles, no doubt several performers are interested in what Smith could do for their careers.
-Rumour has it that "The Show" Chad Kurtis will return to NAPW in the new year. The Show has been on a personal leave of absence. When and where will he make his impact?
-"American Nightmare" Matthew Kurtis has been negotiating with NAPW management to end his indefinite suspension, but so far no deal has been reached.
-A third Murder City Devil? Sources say that world champion Donovan Astros and Jake Phoenix have a hidden ally in the NAPW ranks.
-Chris Casino return? Not likely, but that doesn't stop fans from hoping.

NEW YEAR'S PREDICTIONS
-Mystic Ninja will turn the unfortunate loss of his partner to injury into a singles title run.
-A superstar from NAPW's past will return at Sole Survivor III.
-The New & Improved D-X will reunite for more than "one night only" and add a sixth tag title reign to their dynasty.
-Stone Zellor will continue to set NAPW records. But he will be beaten for the Heritage Title before May...
-The Canada Cup will be won by one of NAPW's newest wrestlers.
-Prince W. Darko will find a partner and finally win the NAPW tag titles that have eluded him his entire pro career.
-A new wrestler will join the Triple-Crown club by adding the World Title to his other title reigns...
-Odyssey Baldwin will bring in one of his famous "brothers" to support Coast 2 Coast. Hopefully not Stephen.
-Donovan Astros and Jake Phoenix will win the tag titles as the MURDER CITY DEVILS.
-Dan Ryan will be the man to beat in the Sole Survivor 30-man rumble match-up.
-NAPW will see more females wrestle in 2008 than ever. Which is to say, there has never been an actual women's wrestling match in NAPW. The only exception is Lyndsey Valentine competing in a couple battle royales and an eight-"man" tag.
-A new faction will form that will at one point, hold all the NAPW titles at once.
