DEFIANT Wrestling have announced two names for their upcoming ‘Built to Destroy’ PPV event, one a returning champion and the other one of the hottest tag teams currently on the UK independent scene.
IWGP Junior Heavyweight Champion Will Ospreay will be making his long awaited return to the company, his opponent has not yet been named. The ‘Aerial Assassin’ is due to perform in New Japan Pro Wrestling’s Best of the Super Juniors tournament from May 18th and you can catch his first round bout against Ishimori for free on NJPWWorld.com on night 1.
Aussie Open are the other confirmed name for the PPV, Comprising Kyle Fletcher and Mark Davis, Aussie Open are one of the most dynamic and exciting teams to emerge from the UK scene in the past year. Having first formed in the ATTACK! promotion back in August they have been challenging for titles in the likes of HOPE, Rev Pro, IPW:UK and CZW which is an absolute testament to their talent and ability to gel so quickly as a unit. Aussie Open have a strong big man/little man dynamic almost akin to that of an early Hart Foundation, the stacked Mark Davis provides a powerful hot tag whilst teammate Kyle Fletcher has an agile flair to his in ring approach, this team is certainly one to look out for.
