WUW Philippines Feature - TZK

Hello everyone.

 

Continuing with Tag Teams throughout Southeast Asia, there is one tag team that this blogger witnessed in December 2023.

 

TZK (Turn Zero Kill) is a tag team that wrestles with World Underground Wrestling - Philippines.  The team of Ken Cifer and St. John Martin are a powerful team with good wrestling skills.

 

Both wrestlers began their careers with WUW - Philippines and wrestled in the promotion's first event back in October 2019.  The event, WUW PH - Dojo Storm took place at the Brawl Pit Bulusan, its home today.  WUW PH shares its home with PUSO Wrestling, the newest promotion in the Philippines along with Dexcon events.

 

Cifer and Martin wrestled in singles matches in the first show and would continue on through this point.  Also, they would wrestle with the, now defunct, Manila Wrestling Federation until the promotion ended in May 2024.  Besides WUW PH, they are also on the PUSO Wrestling roster.

 

TZK would win the World Underground Wrestling Tag Team Championship in December 2023.  The MWF Noche Buena show was likely the biggest show the company had following the Covid epidemic.  A sellout crowd saw the show at the Power Mac Spotlight Center.  The win began a streak of over 450 days of having the belts.

 

During the streak, there was a added stipulation (somewhat like the Freebird Rule or more recently, The New Day).  In one of their tag matches, a newer wrestler by the name of Silent D subbed for Saint John Martin in a no disqualification match.  That wouldn't make any difference since TZK went on to win the match.

 

Turn Zero Kill has made five successful defenses of the title, all in the Philippines.  They have been against good quality teams.  I believe the Gemini Kings (Romeo and Main Maxx) along with the two wrestlers from Kyushi Pro Wrestling in Japan were very stiff competition.  Also, their 450+ days and five title defenses of the title are the most since the title was established in 2022!

 

Their next defense of the title will be this coming Sunday at the WrestleStorm 2 show put on by Dexcon at the Brawl Pit Bulusan.

 

Aaron Liwanag and Dabid Ravena are two strong wrestlers that are hungry for a championship.  This could very well be TZK's biggest test.  They have not teamed together to this blogger's knowledge but anything can happen.  Both are strong singles wrestlers that potentially can be a great tag team.

 

The fans who will be at the Brawl Pit Bulusan and will watch on Triller TV eventually will find out the outcome.  It should be a good one.

The Main Maxx Era Has Begun

Hello everyone.

 

This blogger just finished watching some Pinoy wresting history on You Tube.  PUSO Wrestling, the newest wrestling promotion in Southeast Asia just released a video.  It was for the inaugural Pusong Pinoy Wrestling Championship between Main Maxx and Aaron Liwanag.  This fan wasn't there for the show.  However, he has seen some video clips, photos, etc.  Getting to see it on video was great.  PUSO Wrestling has made some great strides since last June's announcement as a new promotion.  

 

Since December 2022, I've had a chance, off and on, to see both wrestlers live.  Hopefully, this post will be an appreciation of what both wrestlers have done since their start in the squared circle.   

 

At my first Southeast Asia wrestling show at the PETA Theater in Quezon City, Aaron Liwanag was in the very first match.  This giant wrestler is the real deal with an intimidating presence in the ring.  His choke slam will shake up any wrestler, not just in the Philippines, but all of Southeast Asia.  It doesn't hurt that he has a stable in Serafin Liwanag and Solomon Liwanag in his corner watching.  He's young, big and strong.  

 

Mark my words regarding Aaron Liwanag......with a little more experience, he will, no doubt, be a champion.  It could be the Pusong Pinoy Singles Championship, or a tag team championship down the line.

 

Main Maxx is a seasoned veteran wrestler.  He made his wrestling debut in 2015 with Philippine Wrestling Revolution.  He won the PHX Championship in his second year as a pro and was the final PWR Tag Team Title Holders with SANDATA known as MSG.  MSG defeated the KakaBros for the titles and defeated them in a rematch.  Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the eventual closing of PWR, MSG would hold and retire the titles for 187 days.

 

Main Maxx has definitely good moments and some unfortunate ones.  In December 2023, he would lose to Jake De Leon in an eight man elimination tag team match for the Manila Wrestling Federation title.  He would suffer a leg injury in the match.

 

However, there would be the comeback, not only with him but Pinoy Wrestling with a new promotion.  In June 2024, Main Maxx, as well as Aaron Liwanag, would be a significant part of the opening of PUSO Wrestling in what was called PUSO Pinoy Wrestling night.  The event took place at the Brawl Pit Bulusan in Quezon City.

 

In August 2024, PUSO Wrestling would have their first of three remaining shows of the year.  A Pusong Pinoy Wrestling Championship Tournament would decide the inaugural winner over the next four months.

 

Aaron Liwanag would defeat Joya and Super P. to get to the final.

 

Main Maxx would defeat El Kapitunero and Nigel San Jose to get to the final.

 

Most of you already know who won but instead of mentioning it, if you haven't already, please watch it.  There are definitely some great and unpredictable moments in the encounter.  The Brawl Pit Bulusan crowd was, just as this fan expected, electric!  Sonny Go and Romeo Moran, the commentators, had their A game that night calling the action.  You could feel the energy of the match as this fan was watching.  And yes, there would be a new champion in a new era of Pinoy wrestling.

Dexcon Decada Update

Here is an update of the matches for the Dexcon Decada show.  The event will take place on Sunday, May 26th, 6pm at Brawl Pit Bulusan in Quezon City.  Please see the pic above regarding Dexcon rules on ALL matches!

 

"Mr. Philippine Wrestling" Jake De Leon vs. "The Best Technical Wrestler" Zach Sabre Jr.  in an International Dream Match.

Turn Zero Kill (SJM and Ken Cifer) vs. Pinoy Bulldog and Zera for TZK's WUW International Tag Team Championship.

Fabio Makisig vs. Jomar in a singles match.

The Horrors (Dr. Gore and Da Butcherman) vs. Robin Sane and ROMEO for The Horrors SPW Southeast Asia Tag Team Championship.

 

Also, there will likely be other matches added to the show.  And as always, the show is subject to change.

 

For more information, including the meet and greet that will take place on Saturday, please visit the Dexcon page on Facebook.  Thank you.   

JDL vs. Rex Lawin Match

This blogger hasn't done a Manila Wrestling Federation post in awhile.  The reason is that their next show isn't until April.  However, I've seen some things recently that may be of interest to everyone.

 

As the kapafeds and/or the Pinoy wrestling fans know by now, Jake De Leon won the MWF Pinoy Wrestling Title at the 2023 Noche Buena show in December.  It happened in an eight man elimination match, the final match of the night.

 

Earlier in the evening, Danger Rex Lawin defeated Ho Ho Lun in a #1 Contender's Match for a future shot at the coveted title.

 

This fan is not a matchmaker here, and will never be!  The assumption of most fans is that JDL vs. Rex Lawin will happen at the next show in April.  That would be Kasaysayan at the UP Film Institute.  For all of you reading this, that is up to MWF management.  It could happen at the following show, Republika in May.

 

Definitely, I can see this being a good match.  Both competitors are working hard in getting ready for 2024.  Both wrestlers did finish 2023 with victories which gives both of them momentum.  Also, the two are ring veterans meaning that one could possibly defeat the other on a given night.

 

Also, this fan believes former champion, Fabio Makisig, at one point, deserves a rematch.  Fabio, because of the rules of the match, lost the title.  However, he was not pinned or submitted to the eventual champion in the match itself.

 

As well, there is a very good possibility that Jake De Leon may face Main Maxx.  As of this post, we don't know if Main Maxx is still a part of Oro Plata Mata.  It is an assumption that he is no longer with them.  We will know in the upcoming weeks whether that is true.    

Speaking of this, looking ahead, this fan is interested seeing the paths of three wrestlers going forward.  During the Noche Buena show, there were some interesting moments at the end of matches involving C.J. Serafin, Danny Zamora and Main Maxx.  All three were a part of three stables within MWF.

 

Though I won't be there, this fan is excited that Main Maxx is teaming up with Romeo once again.  The Dexcon show in March will tell all of us if the two will team up perhaps in MWF shows sometime during the year.

 

Recently, I watched a livestream of Libreng Lucha.  Both C.J. Serafin and Danny Zamora were part of a tag team in a two on one handicap.  The event was held at the Brawl Pit Bulusan.

 

Though C.J and Danny won the match, it appeared that they were not exactly on the same page.  There appeared to be tension between the two, at times, but they got the victory.  

 

Definitely, this fan, and hopefully those watching MWF shows will be excited about the upcoming year.  Definitely, there will be some surprises.

Dexcon Wrestle Storm Update

A few hours ago, there was a major announcement regarding Dexcon Wrestle Storm's next show.  The event will take place on Saturday/Sunday, March 23-24.  More on this later in the post.

 

The announcement began with my friend, Linus Santos.  The announcement was turned over to WWE Hall Of Famer, and one of this fan's favorite wrestlers in Tito Santana!  Tito looked great in the video and hopefully, he's enjoying life after the great years he had in WWE.

Anyway, TZK (Ken Cifer and Saint John Martin) will defend the WUW International Tag Team Championship for the first time at the event.  Their opponents will be a very familiar tag team in Philippines pro wrestling history.  

 

The Gemini Kings (R O M E O and Main Maxx) will be reuniting to take on TZK.

 

For those who are wondering about the two tag teams, here is some history regarding both teams.

 

TZK have been part of World Underground Wrestling - Philippines for several years.  Ken Cifer and Saint John Martin have trained together and probably have faced one other in matches.  Last month, at the 2023 Noche Buena Show, TZK won the WUW International Tag Team title from Zera and Umezawa.  Zera was a last minute replacement for Sansyu who was unable to fly in from Vietnam the day of the event.

 

The Gemini Kings were the last of the Philippine Wrestling Revolution tag team champions.  Under Main Maxx and SANDATA, the team won the PWR titles from The KakaiBros (Kh3ndrick & Mh4rckie) on January 26, 2020.  The event was held at the PMC Spotlight Theater in Makati.  The team would hold the belts until July 31 when they left PWR.  Per some info from Cagematch, Main Maxx and ROMEO have been a tag team since July 2019.

 

Regarding the weekend, this is the details I have so far.  On Saturday, March 23rd, there will be a Meet And Greet at Unbox Greenhills beginning at 12 noon.

 

On Sunday, March 24th, the show will take place at 6pm at the Brawl Pit Bulusan.  More on both the events will be in future posts.  Please check the Dexcon and World Underground Wrestling - Philippines pages for further updates.
