FORMER TNA STAR AMONG LATEST NAMES CONFIRMED FOR URBAN WRESTLING FEDERATION DEBUT, COMPLETE LIST OF TALENT

By Mike Johnson on 2011-05-03 12:28:23
PWInsider.com has confirmed the following new names for the Urban Wrestling Federation's debut PPV "First Blood" this June in New York City.

Sonjay Dutt - The former TNA X-Division champion.

Eddie Kingston - Yonkers, New York-based old school brawler who has worked regularly for CHIKARA as well as JAPW, CZW and other Northeast independent promotions.

Dameon Slugga - Early ROH talent (Special K's huge bodyguard) and trainer at the Doghouse wrestling school in New York City. 

Eddie Carnage - California based talent who's worked with XPW and other groups, including lots of death mattches.

Lance Lude - Southern based talent who's appeared on ROH on HDNet.

Famous B - California based talent, including appearances on NWA Hollywood.

These latest names join these names previously reported on PWInsider.com:

The Dirty Rotten Scoundrelz - EC Negro and KC Blade, who have worked for a number of Northeastern independent promotions and are a pretty entertaining duo.

Homicide - Former ROH champion and TNA star and a proven draw in the NYC area. His inclusion brings immediate credibility among wrestling fans from a "street" perspective.

Ruckus - Longtime member of CZW and nucleus of the BLK OUT group in that promotion, Ruckus has some really unique aerial moves. Very talented but has never been given a chance on a huge national platform. This will be his chance at that level.

Will and Joel Maximo - Joel is heavier of the SAT Tag Team that first broke out in the early part of the decade. With Jose Maximo having left the business, Will Maximo, their younger brother, has slipped into his place and while still developing, has looked very good early on. This version of the Maximos had one of their best matches of their career just a few weeks ago at the CHIKARA King of Trios.

Murder-1 - Longtime star in the Georgia independent scene. Similar to Ruckus, this will be his biggest platform from a national standpoint to date.

Slyck Wagner Brown - For a long time, Brown has been a talent that upon first glance should have been locked up just based on his look alone nationally, but for whatever reason it has yet to happen. A longtime staple in the New England area, he's got a lot of experience under his belt and has been all over. This will be his biggest chance in some time.

Rappers Red Cafe, Russell "Block" Spencer, Melle Mel and Uncle Murda are also locked in for the first PPV taping.
