FWA Power 20 Issue#148

[Engaged To Ouellet]

1. Anthony - Continued his impressive role as TV Champion as he fought off his latest challenger; William Jayne. It has to be asked, can anybody stop Anthony?

2. Gabrielle - She revealed that despite her pregnancy she has no plans to stop wrestling, but how long her body or conscience will allow her to continue remains to be seen. For now though Gabrielle is sitting pretty at number 2 after having beat long-time nemesis Charon…though the scenes after the match were anything but jubilation as Michael Servin was revealed to be Charon. It has to be wondered after all the events of past weeks how The Goddess is doing mentally.

3. Duke Drazin -Continues the trend of staying put with an impressive win at Mile High. There were many who doubted the legitimacy of Drazin as FWA Champion. But after defeating the young Chris Kennedy who has been on an absolute tear in his year and a half in the FWA has silenced those critics. Drazin is for real.

4. Cameron Cross ^ Shocked the world and defiantly shocked the confident Alexx by becoming North American Champion. Mile High has become a real dream maker in recent years and Cameron has benefitted from it winning two Champions at the last two events over the same opponent. The future seems bright for this young star on the rise.

5. Devin Golden v Competed in possibly the most violent Mile High match to date but came up short thanks too his rival/stablemate XXX. There’s obviously some bad blood between the two, even more so now.

6."The Astonishing" Chris Kennedy v After turning on the Great Siege, casting aside the woman who loved him and cashing in the Golden Opportunity The Astonishing One came up short against Duke Drazin. The hoodoo of Golden Opp winners being unsuccessful continued, though we can’t imagine Chris will accept this setback.

7. Wolf v His World Championship reign was cut short by his brother, adding another chapter to that vile saga. But it wasn’t all sorrow for the former champion as Carmine Reaper revealed himself to be the one who dug Wolf up and unleashed him back into the world. This new alliance can only have destruction in mind.

8. Stu St. Clair v The Snake sacrificed himself to cost his own brother the World Title, reminding the world that he truly is sadistic even in defeat.

9. Over the Edge v Drops down the list after being absent at Mile High.

10. Thomas Princeton ^ Leaps onto the Power 20 after the biggest night of his life. After four years in the FWA Princeton finally captured a World Championship and became a triple crown Champ as well. Tom has finally arrived at the top of the FWA and with the yes men and enough money to buy the FWA itself in his pocket, we could be in for a long reign.

11. Alexx v Came up short against the man whose proving to be his undoing; Cameron Cross. Though it was not a loss that he took lightly as he brutalized Cameron after the match. Alexx isn’t the sort to accept such a loss and like last year could use this to push himself to the next level.

12. Juan Lopez ^ He’s been Young Lions Champion on Fight Night now he’s the X Champion on CrossFire. An impressive performance saw Juan dispatch both his opponents and capture his second FWA title.

13. Carmine "Grim" Reaper v While he may have come up short in the Mile High match, he now has no qualms about using his alliance with Wolf. With the Angel Of Death at his side this could be the Grim Reapers time.

14. William Jayne v He gave Anthony the stiffest challenge he’s had to date, but came up short. We get the feeling though that a few jokes and a few drinks later and the prankster will have forgotten all about it.

15. Charon - He got what he wanted; a match with Gabrielle though we doubt it was what she wanted as Charon unmasked and revealed the former hero known as Michael Servin. So while he lost to The Goddess after she vented Servin found himself clutching her in his arms as a friend.

16. Aut Pax Aut Bellum v Noticeably absent from Mile High, though with APAB that can never last.

17. Tommy Tripper v He gave it his all to win the X Championship but Juan Lopez wanted it more.

18. Ryan Rondo v He fought hard for the right to challenge for any of three FWA Championships, but his best efforts weren’t enough. Still Rondo defiantly has a bright future ahead of himself.

19. Xavier Xander Xerxes v While XXX failed to win the Brawl For All he did succeed in costing Devin Golden the World Heavyweight Title and some would say that means more to XXX.

20. Joey Bones ^ The assistant to Chris Kennedy has found himself in an enviable position; with the opportunity to challenge for the Television or World Tag Team Championships. We just wonder if Chris Kennedy would allow him to win a Championship before he does.

[b]Goodbye To The Power 20:
Mustang Maddie She didn’t compete at Mile High and sadly as hot as she is and as often as we imagine her and Dinorah making love we couldn’t keep her on this list.

Darnell Porter Prime Times return to the Power 20 was short lived as Thomas Princeton outlasted everyone else. The reinvigorated Darnell though won’t be off this list for long we’d imagine.

Keep An Eye On:
Doink The Clown He did beat a current (but now former) Young Lions Champion after all.

Mustang Maddie She is still the current FWA Women’s Champion.

Darnell Porter His career revival won’t be stopped by one loss.

Ashley O’Ryan He’s one of the most decorated and beloved wrestlers in the history of the FWA and despite being a father now he still has many great years ahead of himself we’re sure.

Don’t Bet On It:
Mark Reynolds Embarrassed by Doink The Clown, Stripped of his Young Lions Championship and then fired, don’t count on ever seeing the former Icon in the FWA again.
