{Singles Match}
Frenzy versus Berlin Anderson
Berlin Anderson took a tough loss on Blitz#20: The Anniversary Show, especially considering it's the first match of any merit he had been given in the past several months thanks to former General Manager, Vanessa Byrne. Byrne is gone now, but it still appears that Berlin has more to prove to the new GM, Francis Ford Cuppola, the man he had engaged with during the weeks he was opening the show for Flipping The Script. Frenzy makes his debut on Valor Pro, but little is known of the enigmatic superstar. We hope to learn more in this match, which we're sure The Perpetual Motion Machine will pull forth from the newcomer. It's anyone's ballgame, and both need the win, despite Berlin's tenure in the company. We'll have to see what happens as this will be the first bout of action on an already star studded night!
{Singles Match}
Tommy Crimson versus Maurice Yensman
Tommy Crimson hijacked Battleground Network broadcasting and delivered a cryptic message to the Valor Pro Faithful on Blitz#20: The Anniversary Show from the most unsavory camp fire imaginable on Snake Island, Brazil. Crimson has held championship gold at a variety of promotions, but is more recently known for his undefeated streak in Union Battleground and his work in Sin City Wrestling. However that was some time ago, and it appeared that The Fury had simply fallen off the edge of the world, until now. Maurice Yensman comes into this match after an impressive lopsided victory against Alexis Terry in her final match with the company, and most everyone was shocked that he had cleaned up so quickly. Everyone, but Maurice that is. Yensman is well known for his off the wall antics and mouthy responses to his opponents, but one has to wonder how he'll fare in a match against the likes of Tommy Crimson, someone who doesn't appear to be in a joking mood. Could we see a big debut win for The Fury, or could Yensman nail another victory like he nailed that lookalike in the crowd of last show? We'll find out when we come to you live from the O2 Arena in London!
PRE-SHOW MAIN EVENT
{Singles Match}
Brodie versus Roman Novak
Brodie has not been herself. This is now by her own admission. Ever since Zachariah Krahe left her standing on the cusp of a Hell In A Cell against Roxi Johnson at Allegiance, The Submission Machine has stumbled. She stumbled into Danny Rizzo the next night on Blitz where she lost The UnYielding Championship. She stumbled against Cosmo Cooper in the Apex title chase. She stumbled against Chris Callum when he turned his back on her. And most recently she stumbled against Siberia Zombie at Blitz#20: The Anniversary Show. These past few months have not been easy for her, and despite still being one of the most feared and aggressive entities the sport has ever seen, she now acknowledges things have been different in Krahe's absence. That's when Valor Pro signed Roman Novak, a man with a similar look and dispoistion as Krahe, and Brodie's interest immediately peaked. No one could tell if this was because she hated being reminded of her former obsession, or in spite of it, but either way she burst into Dugan Callahan's office and demanded that a match be signed for Honor Bound. But whose Honor exactly is on the line here? Brodie's? Roman Novak's? Or Zachariah Krahe's? Perhaps more answers are forthcoming at Honor Bound?

(Last Man Standing)
Spiral versus Aokigahara Zombie(c)
Spiral is back, and he didn't come alone. Francis Ford Cuppola is the new General Manager of Valor Pro Wrestling, a move perpetrated by The Pale King to dethrone Vanessa Byrne and win in the legal battles brought against the company. In that settlement came the knowledge that while The Unleashed Championship was now Valor Pro's property, Spiral would be getting a rematch against the man who took it off of him at Rite of Kings. Aokigahara has been behind the scenes as of late conducting The Zombie Clan in their various tasks. First it was the reunion of The Zombie Vice Squad, but that didn't pan out when they were taken down by NSFW. Later it was a match against Kowloon Zombie for this very title, in which Aoki exerted his dominance in the world of barbarous death matches. And then finally, Blitz#20: The Anniversary Show, putting Siberia in the mindset required to go out and defeat The Submission Machine, Brodie. But this time the focus is on him, and Aoki will find himself in his favorite place to be....Last Man Standing. A match that requires you to beat on your adversary hard enough and long enough that they can't answer the count of ten. Spiral, however, will have something to say about that, considering he himself has a background in the violent and macabre. Certainly with his legal win, his leadership coups, and everything leading up to this moment, The Pale King would like nothing more than to put a nail in the coffin of the Unleashed Championship situation. With two tough as nails individuals battling it out to put the other away, which of them will have the fortitude to out last that ten count? We'll find out on August 25th!
{Fatal Four Way Match}
(The winner will receive an UnYielding Championship opportunity on the next Blitz)
Moxie James versus Indi Rhyder versus David Scott versus Bryan Williams
Big opportunities for four individuals heading into Honor Bound. Moxie James impressed with a win over Maurice Yensman on Flipping The Script Episode#3, and again on Blitz#20: The Anniversary Show against the up til then undefeated, David Scott. Speaking of David Scott, it's hard to determine whether that loss will effect the superstar considering his harsh words against Moxie during his promo for the match. One has to wonder if that set back earned Moxie any respect from The Battle Born, or will he see this as his chance to put her down for good. After all, Moxie's only downside came when she was unable to get to Raven Williams during another Fatal Four Way during her debut to prevent Scott from winning that. Perhaps these chaotic situations are really more Scott's forte. Indi Rhyder comes into this mix having already had an UnYielding Championship opportunity, and she looks to once again step into that pathway to gold after a bit win against Berlin Anderson on the Anniversary Show. And then there's Bryan Williams. The former two time 4CW Pride Champion has a reputation for stirring the pot in any promotion that he's ever visited, and that could be seen as a good thing or bad thing. He certainly didn't leave Blitz#20 with a good feeling when he warned everyone that they knew exactly what he was capable of, which could be great high caliber matches or a shit storm that will bury the competition. Either way, Bryan Williams, The Name, has arrived and will be given the same opportunity as these other three to get a shot at the UnYielding Championship at the next Blitz. All I know, chaos will reign supreme like it always does in these multi-superstar matches!
{Chimera Tag Team Championships Match}
Zack Fantana & ??/w Brad Stokes versus NSFW(c)
Zack Fantana is a holy man...Wait? What? The last time we saw Fantana was at Blitz#13 when he bit the bullet for Brad Stokes and took an indefinite suspension from General Manager Vanessa Byrne so long as Stokes got to keep his job. Stokes continued the good word of Fantana for months afterwards, despite still getting his ass kicked by Valor Pro's elite on almost every segment of Where There's Stokes, There's Fire. But after the last installment on Blitz#20, Brad found himself once again without a job, drowning his sorrows at a local pub in Rio De Jaeniro. That's when Zack appeared to Brad and let him in on the secret of a lifetime. Not only was he back to save Stokes, but he was going to get his own job back with the aide of a new apostle. Enter new General Manager, Francis Ford Cuppola, who basically went back on several of the Vanessa Byrne decisions as of late, and as a gesture of good will, is giving Zack Fantana and this Mystery Apostle a chance to take on the Chimera Tag Champs, NSFW. Mike McGuire & Bishop Church have been busy since dethroning Rekota. Not only did they get into a dispute on Twitter with Apex Champion Cosmo Cooper, the then turned around and fought beside him and Katya Djurdjevic in Blitz#20's War Games, and won! Now the champs will be faced with taking on the challenge of a newly returned Zack Fantana, one of Valor Pro's most popular draws in its early days, and a mystery partner that they can't scout before the match. Not to mention the book says Brad Stokes will be there, and who knows what that idiot will be up to at ringside! Will Zack Fantana and his Mystery Partner make waves by taking out one of the best Tag Teams that Valor Pro has ever seen, or will NSFW prove, once and for all, that you can't just Mix & Match a tag team and expected it to be successful against partners who have been doing it all of their lives? We'll find out at Honor Bound!
{UnYielding Championship Match}
(Kaven Drell banned from ringside. However, if Katya does not win, this will be the last UnYielding Championship opportunity she will receive as long as Rizzo holds the title.)
Katya Djurdjevic versus Danny Rizzo(c)
Danny Rizzo is UnYielding. It's a catchphrase The Risen has held onto for four months when he dethroned Brodie. At that point in time no one really believed that Danny would be able to do it, even with all of the fan support and the love of the masses. But in the end, he took The Submission Machine to her limit and overcame the obstacle that is The Finality Crossface. From that moment forward Danny was true to his nickname, as he Rose to new heights as the UnYielding Champion. The belt itself is an unforgiving title, the champion forced to defend every show with the exception of this past Blitz, and even then that was for the hell known as War Games. Just when it looked like Danny might be unstoppable, enter Katya Djurdjevic. The plucky Russian known as The Straight Line Demon took Valor by storm much the same way Rizzo had, becoming a quick fan favorite and an attraction everyone wanted to see. It was there, in their first encounter, that it became clear that Danny had a change of heart, when he blasted Katya with a steel chair at Rite Of Kings to retain the championship due to disqualification. Some attributed this to the influence of Kaven Drell, who had come on the scene and ended all of Danny's promos with 'Let it Burn'. Others attributed it to the pressures of the championship, defending night after night against the high caliber Valor Pro athletes. Regardless of the reason, Danny Rizzo didn't apologize to the masses, but rather instructed them that they were the selfish ones. That he did what he had to do just like every superstar that had ever come before him. The fans, seeing this turn in their hero, quickly attached themselves to the new starlet and a cry went up for the heroine to step up and take center stage. Unfortunately, in their second match, Katya once again failed to obtain victory, and many saw this as an opportunity that may not come again. However, during Blitz#20: The Anniversary Show's Main Event, Katya reinvigorated that faith in her performance, not just against Danny, but getting the pinfall for her team in War Games. Apparently that faith reached the VPW offices, because she will once again get the chance to challenge Rizzo for the prize she has openly sought after since coming into the company. But this opportunity doesn't come without a price! If Katya Djurdjevic does not win here tonight, especially with Kaven Drell banned from ringside, then she will never be granted another shot at the title again while Rizzo remains champion. Will it be long live the Risen, or will Katya finally fulfill the dream she has claimed since entering our business?
-MAIN EVENT-
-Apex Championship-{Singles Match}
Chris Callum versus Cosmo Cooper(C)
The Match of the Century is upon us, and it will take place August 25th on Honor Bound, when Chris Callum and Cosmo Cooper finally go one on one for the coveted Apex Championship! Nine months ago, Cosmo Cooper made his debut on VPW's first big PPV, 7 Pillars, and was named as one of former General Manage Vanessa Byrne's Champions of Choice. Cooper was nearly handed the Apex Championship by Byrne, but plans were foiled by Brennan Devlin who would engage in a heated rivalry with Cooper that lasted for the next several months. In the end, however, it was Cooper who took The Apex champion on January 18th at Equinox, and since then has taken the championship and Valor Pro to new heights of stardom. His bouts with Devlin are legendary, his fight with Brodie were brutal, and his verbal diatribe with Cross Recoba cunning. But now, the man standing across the ring from him is not just a challenger to his throne. It's a former friend, colleague, and mentor. Someone that he once respected who has now come to tear down his empire and take the Apex from around his waist. Chris Callum's arrival wasn't without it's own grand stage. Debuting in the Rite of Kings Battle Royal, Callum defeated sixteen other superstars to become the #1 Contender to the Apex right out of the gate. From there he and Aspen Chaud laid out a plan to destroy Cooper that ultimately fell to the wayside when Callum and Chaud split after a change of heart. This comeback, this fight, wasn't about destroying Cosmo Cooper or his legacy as much as it was proving that Chris Callum was the best of the best, and the only way for him to do that was to walk this path to glory on his own. Aspen didn't take the news well, and as all have seen on Twitter has fired back at Chris, but The Eternal has stayed the course. At the end of War Games at Blitz#20: The Anniversary Show, it was clear that neither man was going to give an inch, that this rivalry was at the center of their being, the core of their souls. This isn't a redemption story. This isn't just a title match. This is a battle that will have ramifications throughout the wrestling world for years to come, and at the end of the day will prove, once and for all, who is The Apex of this industry. Will it be Chris Callum? Will it be Cosmo Cooper? One things is for sure; It will be a fight that no one will soon forget!
And more....?
