THE ANIMAL WILL BE UNLEASHED AT MCW XTREME MEASURES!
Maryland Championship Wrestling has announced that former WWE World
Heavyweight Champion and current SmackDown superstar, BATISTA, will be at
MCW XTREME MEASURES, Next Sunday, May 7th in Baltimore, Maryland.

The former bouncer made his debut in World Wrestling Entertainment in
May 2002, as an enforcer for "Reverend D-Von" (formerly The Dudley Boyz'
D-Von Dudley, currently Team 3D's Brother Devon, who wrestled at the
last MCW event, teaming with Brother Ray in defeating Bruiser & Genesis
last Sunday). Batista won his first championship, the WWE World Tag Team
Championship, with Ric Flair, defeating, ironically, The Dudley Boyz,
in December 2003.

In January 2005, Batista won the Royal Rumble, which led to his first
World Championship, via a victory over Triple H at WrestleMania 21.
While holding the World Title, he teamed with current World Champion, Rey
Mysterio, to win the WWE Tag Team Championship in December 2005.

After dealing with a right triceps injury, Batista made his return
appearance in Baltimore, at the WWE No Way Out PPV, this past February.
Now, Batista returns to Baltimore, and will appear next Sunday, May 7th,
at the MCW Arena in Dundalk, Maryland (just outside of Baltimore City)
for MCW XTREME MEASURES!


MAIN EVENT FOR XTREME MEASURES HAS BEEN ANNOUNCED
BATTLE OF FORMER WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS
DIAMOND DALLAS PAGE VS. CHRIS KANYON

They always say that "good friends make better enemies." Those words
ring true here, as DDP will battle his former best friend, Kanyon. Page
has held many titles throughout his 20-year career, including the WCW
World Heavyweight, WCW United States, WCW Television, WCW World Tag Team,
WWE European, and WWE World Tag Team Championships. Kanyon is no
stranger to titles either, having won the WCW World Tag Team & United States
Titles, as well as the WWE World Tag Team Title, when he & DDP defeated
APA in 2001. Can "The Innovator of Offense" come up with the right
moves to defeat the experienced former World Champion? We will find out at
Xtreme Measures next Sunday night.

MCW HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH
JULIO DINERO VS. GENESIS
The new MCW Champion successfully defended his title in a great match
with Josh Daniels, last Sunday at GUERRILLA WARFARE. Now, commissioner
Tara had announced that the champ will defend the title against GENESIS,
the man who, along with BRUISER, went toe-to-toe with TEAM 3D, last
Sunday night. This match is the rematch from the finals of the MCW
Heavyweight Championship Tournament earlier this year.

THE RUNT VS. THE BEAST
BROTHER RUNT (aka Spike Dudley) VS. BRUISER
The "Giant Killer" comes to MCW next Sunday, to battle MCW's giant, the
300+ pound, former 5-time MCW Champion BRUISER. Bruiser wants revenge,
after losing to TEAM 3D last Sunday at GUERRILLA WARFARE. Bruiser is
looking to get some revenge by defeating the "Runt" of the Clan. Can
Spike slay another giant, or will the Bruiser get his revenge?

CHRIS SABIN CHALLENGES THE CHAMPION
After witnessing current MCW Cruiserweight Champion DEREK FRAZIER
accept the challenges of Qenaan Creed & Andrew Ryker, and successfully
defend the title against both of them last Sunday, Chris Sabin has issued a
challenge to Frazier for a championship match next Sunday at XTREME
MEASURES. Unavailable for comment prior to this press release, we hope to
have a response from the champion later this week.

GIMMICK MATCH CHALLENGE CONTINUES
The Holy Rollers, with the assistance of The Trojan Twins, stole the
first victory in a Lumberjack Match over The Slackers. Now, Match #2 of
the challenge. And this time, The Slackers will select the stipulation.
Chad & Dino plan to make the announcement this Friday.
