Per @aawpro, Jimmy Jacobs has been added.

This Saturday night AAW returns to 115 Bourbon St for the annual summer spectacular “Scars and Stripes”. Let’s take a closer look at the card for the biggest show of the summer.


SHANE HOLLISTER MAKES HIS FIRST AAW TITLE DEFENSE

It’s been a long road to the top for Shane Hollister and he’s certainly made some short cuts along the way but there is no denying his time has come to carry the banner of AAW. After ending his bitter rivalry with Sami Callihan in a Last Man Standing match Hollister was given his title match against Michael Elgin last month and he took advantage by defeating the champion and capturing the AAW Heavyweight Title and becoming only the third man to obtain the AAW triple crown.

This Saturday night Hollister defends the belt for the first time and his opponent is yet to be named. Lots of rumors flying around as to who the AAW office has deemed worthy of the opportunity but Hollister has stated he does not care who steps in against him at Scars and Stripes. The AAW locker room is deep with talent and with the new champs confidence at an all time high this is sure to be a competitive contest no matter who the contender turns out to be.



CARLITO COLON
VS
KEITH WALKER w/ Kevin Harvey


Ever since Kevin Harvey revealed his “We are Here” group he has been dead set on making statements (verbal and physical) in AAW. When the office announced international star Carlito was coming in for Scars and Stripes Harvey quickly jumped at the chance to get the monster Keith Walker in the ring with the former WWE superstar. Keith Walker has been on a path of destruction this year since joining up with Harvey and his band of misfits and has been training intensely in the past few months to get in the best shape of his career. This is ominous news for Carlito though he is no stranger to taking on larger opponents. It will be the brute strength of Walker against the experience and quickness of Carlito this Saturday night and you can be sure Harvey and Nikki Mayday will be watching the proceedings from ringside.



EDDIE KINGSTON
VS
RHINO


Eddie Kingston burst onto the scene in AAW back at “Day of Defiance” and has quickly become one of the most hated men in the company. Kingston immediately took issue with fans and with Silas Young not only powerbombing the former AAW champion through a table but also striking Val Malone. Last month Young tried to get his hands on Kingston but was knocked cold with the spinning backfist. With Young on the shelf due to doctors orders Kingston challenged AAW management to put him in the ring at Scars and Stripes with the biggest, toughest man they could find. They responded with the “Man Beast” Rhino. If it’s a tough and physical match that Kingston wants he will no doubt get it here. You can bet Silas Young will be watching this one closely as he awaits his opportunity to “test Kingston’s gangsta”.



AAW TAG TEAM TITLES

IRISH AIRBORNE (Dave & Jake Crist)
VS
KUNG FU MANCHU (Louis Lyndon & Marion Fontaine)


Irish Airborne have run roughshot over the AAW Tag Team division since dethroning Jimmy Jacobs and Arik Cannon late last year. They have claimed there is no competition for them but now string contenders have emerged in the undefeated Lyndon and Fontaine. After the Northstache Express was forced to disband Fontaine didn’t have to look far for a new partner as Louis Lyndon stepped right in and the duo rattled off wins over Monster Mafia and Zero Gravity on the way to this title shot. The Crist brothers better be on their game as the challengers are on a roll and looking to bring home their first AAW gold this Saturday night.


UNSANCTIONED

CHRISTIAN ROSE
VS
MAREK BRAVE


Back at AAW’s ninth Anniversary in March the crowd was treated to a look back at the legendary Tyler Black vs Marek Brave feud. Marek had lost a loser leaves match almost three years back and made his return to Berwyn to thank the fans. He was cut short by newcomer Christian Rose who not only ran down Marek for being a has been but also made things personal bringing up his wife and young son. A brawl ensued that night and several others have followed leading to Jim Lynam approving this unsanctioned fight at Bourbon st. Rose will try to extinguish the legacy of one of the true pioneers of AAW and make a name for himself while Marek will be fighting for his honor and that of his family. Expect a wild brawl in this one.
