The Reality of Wrestling promotion, helmed by wrestling veteran Booker T, made an announcement on Twitter recently, revealing its forthcoming major event on July 13 in Texas City, TX. This event will mark the first time that a WWE NXT Superstar, Oro Mensah, will compete against ROW Word Champion, Edge Stone.
The official announcement read as follows:
“‼️ BREAKING NEWS ‼️
For the FIRST TIME EVER the Reality Of Wrestling championship will be defended against a @WWENXT Superstar at #RevolutionRising on Saturday, July 13th in Texas City, TX at the Walker Texas Lawyer Arena
— MAIN EVENT —@OroMensah_wwe VS EDGE STONE (c)…”
This news precedes another major announcement we reported earlier: World Of Sport Wrestling, also known as WOS, is scheduled for a comeback after a five-year break. The promotion will host a series of tapings this September 14, sparking substantial excitement in the UK wrestling circuit.
With All Elite Wrestling already broadcasting on ITV, WOS intends to initially air on streaming platforms and social media channels. These recordings in September might form part of their approach to securing future television rights.
Some significant figures in UK wrestling are of the view that if a TV deal for WOS materializes, WWE might consider reviving NXT Europe from its hiatus. The term ‘WOS’ is now the preferred name due to trademark issues.
Old-unit individuals including the Goldsmiths, Steve Lynskey among others, are poised to make a comeback. Wrestlers Grado and Sha Samuels are also projected to make appearances.
