NXT Takeover: Rival Preview
These are quick becoming some of the most anticipated shows in WWE today. Takeover. The crowning jewels of NXT, where the troops in Florida get to go out for a two hour live show on the Network and tear it up. The last event, R Evolution, ended with the betrayal of Kevin Owens against his long time friend and newly crowned NXT Champion, Sami Zayn. It's been building since then, but it was made official a few weeks ago that Zayn and Owens would meet one on one here for the NXT Championship. We'll get to that later though, because there's a full card of excellence to run through before we get to the main event.

Prime Suspects - Who Wants Whiplash?
Someone is out for Mikey Whiplash. If you were at the Square Go or have watched it On Demand since, you'll see that one of the favorites to win the match in Whippy was eliminated after being distracted by a video playing a few seconds of his "Gradomania is Dead" promo. I won't lie, witnessing it first hand, I was feart. I think everyone in the room was feart. None more so, apparently, than Whiplash himself, who was distracted enough to allow Lewis Girvan to dump him over the top rope. As you might have gathered from the very well thought out title, I'm going to be running down some of the guys who I think were behind playing that video, and who Mikey Whiplash may need to be taking on somewhere down the line. Since his epic return at Fear & Loathing 7, joining the Sumerian Death Squad to form the group known as Legion, Whiplash has been on a roll. Picking up wins over Darkside and 2015 SQUARE GO WINNER DICKIE DIVERS, as well as the NAK as a whole on the night of that return. He's been a new prospect, he's in the wrestling and physical shape of his career, and was looking to get back into the Heavyweight Title picture. Already, this has got the ICW fans intrigued, and why shouldn't it? Here's but a few of the possible people who may be baying for the blood of Whiplash... Including prices, because I love writing up odds for stuff.

ICW: 4th Annual Square Go Review
First show of the year aye? How to make as big an impact as possible? How to set the tone for what could be the, no, WILL be the biggest year in ICW history? The answers lay within the 4th Annual Square Go event. Those answers were pretty neat indeed. As we entered the ABC, there was a sight to behold. Suspending high above the ring, engulfing the disco ball, was the steel cage that would play host to one of the most personal and highly anticipated matches in British wrestling history. BT Gunn and Wolfgang's destination was set to go, but they would have to wait a wee while to get in and down to business. Who would go on to win the Square Go, and have a contract for a heavyweight title match at any time of their choosing? We would have to wait until the top of the show to find that out. Who would come out victorious in the biggest match of Chris Renfrew's career, when he cashes in the 2014 Square Go contract against Drew Galloway? We'll get to that in just a bit. First up was the Square Go tradition. The Iron Man match. Joe Coffey has embodied the title of being ICW's Iron Man, and threw out an open challenge to anyone in the world of wrestling to answer it. The time for the challenger to make himself known was now...
