Westwide Xtreme Wrestling (wXw) has announced that PROGRESS ATLAS Champion and member of the Ringkampf stable WALTER will be challenging Ilja Dragunov for the wXw Unified World Championship in the main event of Superstars of Wrestling on May 5th.
If you’ve never heard of WALTER then he is certainly a performer that should be on your radar. The Austrian powerhouse has been dominating the Tag and Heavyweight divisions in wXw, PROGRESS and PWG over the past couple of years and he is now being slated as a future WWE/NXT signee (even if he denies any sort of negotiations). The de-facto leader of the Ringkampf stable (alongside Timothy Thatcher and previously NXT roster member Axel Dieter Jr) has a ton of potential on the world stage and has already garnered critical praise from the likes of Dave Meltzer, who gave his PWG All-Star Weekend bout against Zack Sabre Jr from October 2017 a 5 star rating.
This announcement just adds extra spice to an already impressive card featuring the likes of Tenille Dashwood challenging Toni Storm for the wXw Women’s Championship and ROH legend Christopher Daniels taking on Bobby Guns for the wXw Shotgun Title. WWE legend Billy Gunn, former ROH World Champion Jay Lethal and 16 Carat Gold winner Absolute Andy will also be in action.
Less than 10 tickets remain for this incredibly stacked card which takes place in Turbinenhalle, Oberhausen next weekend. You can watch the show later that week via the wXw Now On Demand service, further information can be found via the tweet below or through wXw’s official website.
