Maniacs United gets hardcore at Underground 3

The roster of Maniacs United will live up to their name tomorrow when they present a night of hardcore wrestling action at Underground 3.

Jackson Shield holder Kingston Eclipse joins forces with Maniacs United newcomer Blaze to take on the team of JPE and “Rufguts” Roddy Gunn in an inter-gender, hardcore elimination match main event.

While Eclipse won’t be defending his Jackson Shield, a new challenger for the title will emerge when 12 wrestlers compete in a unique match-up.

Billed as a “number one contendership on a pole battle royal,” all 12 competitors will start the match in the ring with the goal of taking down the contract hanging in the corner promising them a match for the Jackson Shield. Wrestlers can be eliminated by being thrown over the top rope, as in a traditional battle royal, but it is not necessary to eliminate everyone in the ring – only to take down the number one contender’s contract.

JPE, part of the night’s main event and the number one contendership battle royal, will warm up for her matches with a “Slap Bet Challenge” against Dom Alupis. Both Alupis and JPE will sit on a chair and slap one another until someone falls from their seat.

A handful of other unique matches are set to take place at Underground 3, including a bout under British rules, a handcuff match, and an over-the-top challenge.

Maniacs United Underground 3 takes place tomorrow, June 6, at Mania Gym in Auckland. The card, subject to change, is listed below.
