I would like to start by informing you all that 3DW will be going on hiatus for an undetermined amount of time due to some personal as well as professional issues. We thank our fans for all their continual support and we promise them a bigger and better product in months to come. We do have a benefit show in Ardmore, some joint PMLL Lucha Libre shows in OKC as well as some returning show towns booked and we'll keep you all informed on our site, www.officialuwf.com as well as on this your source for everything Oklahoma wrestling, www.oklafan.com Now on to the up to the moment news!

Well the 3DW "Violent Division Championship" is no more! You heard right, a tournament was held in Madill, OK to crown a lifetime hardcore champ and retire the belt and that honor went to a man who's truly deserving of that title...nobody, nadie, no one! Actually it went to Kunna Keyoh who's name translates to "No One!" in the Chickasaw language. A true hardcore competitor in 3DW, Kunna has bled many times in that ring in a series of first's for the company like the "Red Gauntlet Match", "All Weapons Match", "Hardcore Match" and he was the first to participate in 3DW's first ever "Barbed Wire Casket Match" in which he defeated Bundy. Believe it or not he has played a major role in helping to create some of these matches and has even spoke to the bookers about having a first ever "Barbed Wire Fire Match" to be held somewhere in Texas. So we'll see what the future holds for Kunna Keyoh but in the meantime, congrats you sick freak! What happens to the hardcore division and belt you ask? Although we'll probably continue to feature this style of match every once in a while, it won't be as a division due to the strict laws governing pro wrestling in Oklahoma so we've decided since the "Light Heavyweight Title" was also done away with then we should combine the two into one division allowing the high flyers and hardcore wrestlers to compete in our version of the X division, the "TeXoma Title" which is basically a regional X division title. Speaking of titles, with the former "TeXoma Champ" "The Mayne Event" Les Mayne moving away to Arizona taking along with him the current "Femme Fatale Champ" and his fiance "The Diva Destroyer" Frankie Dee, that title becomes vacant. It's been over 2 months since Frankie Dee has defended her title not because of lack of heart but simply put, the company wasn't bring in any good female talent to work her so 3DW has decided to vacate the title and hold a tournament in the near future. To Les and Frankie we say good luck in all future endeavors, we love you guys and we'll miss you both, God bless. Congratulations are in order for "The Great" Dane Griffin who is the new "TeXoma Champ" and "The Largeador" Michael Faith who won the 3DW "Heavyweight Title" and will be defending it in Japan this week.

In other news, MSWA champion Al Farat is going on a full year of being champ there, can he be stopped? I sure hope so or there will be more blood spilled and many more faces burned. Montego Seeka and Thug Nasty will be wrestling for XWA and UWF in Louisiana in Aug. so check them out on the 3DW site and click on they're links. NWA-OK will be having it's next show in Sept. according to it's booking team so check back with us for more info or you can go to www.nwaok.com

Wow! 3DW on rest, Les-n-Frankie goin west, Faith in Japan, Griffin's the man, TNA in Lawton, hey wait a minute! I never said anything about TNA! Oh well I probably forgot to but be sure to check 'em out in Lawton and Muskogee in August, it should be good but until then this is "Triple B" saying...see ya ringside!
