World Wrestling Council (WWC)
WWC returned to action last Saturday night with their weekly house show/TV
taping at the “PepÃn Cestero Arena†in Bayamón, PR A few things to note coming
out of the show:
- Samuel Adams became the new WWC Jr. Heavyweight champion after defeating
Rikochet.
- “The Precious One†Gilbert defeated Chicano with the help of “Big Daddyâ€
Montes, thus regaining the WWC Puerto Rican Heavyweight title, which he had lost
to Chicano at “Aniversario 41â€.
- There was a non-advertised bonus tag team match, OT Fernández & Angel Cotto
were facing “Los Bouncers†Bob & Bruno. During this match, OT Fernández was
injured while attempting a high risk move. The night of the event was speculated
that he could have injured his spine; however, after being taking out via
stretcher and taken to the hospital, the doctors released him the next day and
sent him home after all tests cleared him of such type injury. At this point it
looks more like a “stinger†and OT is recuperating at home. He is scheduled to
fly to Mexico this coming weekend to fulfill some obligations with his “La
Franquicia†tag team partner JC Navarro. He has stated that he will wait and see
how he feels by the end of the week before deciding if he makes the trip or not.
Our most sincere best wishes of a speedy and full recovery go out to Fernández.
The action goes back this Saturday night to the “PepÃn Cestero Arena†in
Bayamón where the following matches have already been announced for their weekly
house show/TV taping:
WWC Universal Heavyweight Title – Rematch

As we noted last week, WWC has announced that they will be returning with an
event to the “Rubén RodrÃguez Coliseum†in Bayamón, PR. There are only two
events that I can speculate that could take place at this historic venue:
“LOCKOUT 2014†which should be happening sometime in mid-December; and “Euphoria
2015â€, which is their first big event of the new year and is set to take place
on Saturday January 3rd, 2015. Announced for that event is the match to
determine who is the “Real King of Wrestlingâ€, pinning “El Rey de la Lucha Libreâ€
Chicky Starr and WWE Hall of Famer Jerry “The King†Lawler.
