FIP News for 9-24-09


When the announcement of FIP’s involvement with the Jeff Peterson Memorial Cup this year was made, Mister St.Laurent immediately was on the phone petitioning to have The YRR represented in the 16 man field.

“The JPC brings 16 of the best young athletes in the country down to Florida to compete; well no one deserves a spot in the Peterson Cup more than Sal Rinauro and Chasyn Rance do. The YRR has been a force in FIP for years, and we deserve to be represented in this tournament.”

Fortunately for MSL and The YRR, FIP/Peterson Cup officials agree…sort of.

Thanks to some heavy politicking by MSL, at Fallout 2009 The YRR will get a chance to EARN a trip to the field of 16 for this year’s JPC by winning qualifying matches into this year’s tournament which takes place on November 20/21st, 2009.

In qualifying match #1 Chasyn Rance of the YRR will face former FIP Florida Heritage Champion Chris Jones in a rematch from FIP’s “Unstoppable 2008” event.

In qualifying match #2 Sal Rinauro will face off against TJ Perkins


FIP MATCH INCLUDED AS BONUS FEATURE ON DEBUT Dragon Gate DVD Release

On July 25th, 2009 a new era in US Wrestling began as the Japanese pro wrestling company Dragon Gate had the debut show of its new United States based promotion, Dragon Gate USA. The debut show, “Open the Historic Gate”, taped for PPV in Philadelphia at The Arena, was widely praised by fans and critics alike as one of the best PPV shows from top to bottom in history.

The DVD of this amazing event is now available for order at dgusa.tv, and includes a very special feature on the 2nd disc of this great event. Added to the DVD release as a bonus match is the FIP vs. Dragon gate match from FIP’s CAGE OF PAIN II show on 9/27/07. That amazing 6 man tag featured BxB Hulk/Jack Evans/Yamato vs. Delirious/Jigsaw/Hallowicked.

WHAT WILL FALLOUT 2009 MEAN FOR THE FUTURE OF FIP?

Three Titles on the line on October 3rd, 2 inside a steel cage, all 3 matches will end the Championship quests for all 3 challengers one way or the other. If Kenny King, Brad Attitude and the British Lions fail to reach their goals of leaving Crystal River with Championship Gold around their waists, they will make the long trek down the cards knowing there will be no more title shots in their foreseeable futures.

Tag Teams have dissolved after failing to win titles, singles wrestlers have moved on to new companies after missing out on their chance to grab that brass ring, and champions have hung up their boots and never been the same after losing their championship.

It is all on the line at Fallout 2009 on October 3rd, and there may be a very different looking FIP in the aftermath of this big event in Crystal River. Don’t miss it!
