Dixon vs Angels - PCW Canadian Championship At Thunderstruck!

Posted on 11 Feb 2010 by PCW



WINNIPEG, MB - One of the most anticipated matches rumoured to be in the works the past few months is now a reality as multiple-time former PCW Champion Mike Angels will challenge "Average" Joe Dixon for the PCW Canadian Championship at Thunderstruck on February 18th 2010 only at Dylans on Pembina!

Arguably the number two contender in PCW, Mike Angels' strong 2009 ended early as a result of a controversial decision by Commissioner Chris Stevens to suspend him following Hellbound in November. In a wild melee with Kraven Sicario, Angels accidentally struck Stevens, but the Commissioner considered it a careless act and sent Angels' home for the rest of the year. Early in 2010, Director of Authority Jay Walker extended the suspension, removing Angels' from New Years Knockout and his PCW Canadian Championship match against Dixon, replacing him with his close friend Scott Justice.

Angels had returned to PCW in April 2009 in a surprise reunion of Tag Sciences Faculty, teaming with then-PCW Canadian Champion "Priceless" Chad Tatum to defeat Adam Knight & JP Kaos. One month later, he beat Knight in singles competition to qualify for the 2009 Premier Cup Tournament. At that event, he put forth one of the greatest individual performances of all time, defeating Knight, Kenny Omega and El Generico to win the tournament. By virtue of his victory, Angels became number one contender and challenged Omega for the PCW Heavyweight Championship at Boiling Point.

Shortly thereafter, Angels became the second PCW Superstar to sign with a major Japanese promotion when he joined Dramatic Dream Team for a summer tour. He returned to PCW and engaged in a thrilling feud with Kraven which has yet to come to a definitive end. At Hellbound, prior to his controversial suspension, Angels lost a close match to Robby Royce, a development that may have expedited the shocking break up of Team Impact.

Angels will make his hotly anticipated return to PCW at Thunderstruck to challenge "Average" Joe Dixon as the competition for the Canadian Championship approaches a fevered pitch.

Dixon has been unstoppable since vowing to prove something to the wrestling world in October 2008. Over the course of the past 15 months, he has been the winningest wrestler in the country, compiling an undefeated record and securing victories over such notables as Chad Tatum, Adam Knight, Mentallo, ATM and Nate Hardy en route to winning the PCW Canadian Championship in December.

The suspension to Angels impacted Dixon also. As he prepared for the difficult task of facing Angels, the match was suddenly changed and he was forced to defend his title against the undefeated upstart rookie Scott Justice at New Years Knockout! Justice promised to capture the title and had already procured the actual championship belt, stealing it following Dixon's December victory and ruining his celebration.

But it was the inspirational Dixon who once again over-came the odds and handed Justice his first career defeat. Post Match, former champion Chad Tatum handed Dixon the belt but made it clear he intended to regain the gold at the anniversary show in March.

Tatum will face ATM at Thunderstruck in a number one contenders match.

Though Dixon has shown a propensity to rise to the occasion and has defeated an impressive array of superstars, Angels may be the most decorated and successful former champion he will have to over-come to retain the PCW Canadian Championship. As a former Canadian Champion, Angels will certainly do everything he can to walk out of Thunderstruck with the title.
