During his eight month title reign, "Silent Intensity" Austin Roberts
has faced diversity more times than one could count. He has faced
what appeared to be insurmountable odds time after time, only to rise
above the adversity and reign supreme as the DREAMWAVE World Champion.
At "Road to ANNIVERSARY" on March 6th, 2010, Austin Roberts has to face
a challenger unlike he has ever faced before, Luther.
Austin Roberts thought he was having a bad night when his sometimes
tag team partner, and best friend, Steve Boz won the Lethal Lottery at
"Season Premiere" on February 6th. When Roberts and Boz (collectively
known as Super Intense), faced off in the ring, many fans weren't sure
how to react to two of their favorite DREAMWAVE stars being forced to
do battle with one another. While many speculated what the outcome of
such an unlikely epic match between two friends would be, the world
may never know. Just as the match was building between the two,
Luther and "Handler" interjected themselves and attacked Roberts.
Fed up with Luther's blatant disregard (or lack of understanding) of
the rules, DREAMWAVE President, JC Costilli, came to ringside and made
a brash decision to make the World Title match for March 6th of Austin
Roberts vs Luther.
Some sources in the locker room have said that Austin Roberts demeanor
has changed sligthly as of late. There have been rumblings in the
locker room that the pressure of being the World Champion may be
getting to Austin. There is no denying that while being the World
Champion comes with a lot of financial perks, the respect of your
peers, and a certain amount of status, it is emotionally taxing. It
could be the combination of a long war with Prince Ali, having to
wrestle his best friend Steve Boz, and the stress of being attacked by
the monsterous, Luther that has left Roberts an exhausted man.
One thing is for certain, while he may be wearing down physically and
emotionally, mentally Roberts must stay sharp. One can only assume
that a monster such as Luther, has no emotions to deal with when
preparing for battle. Luther has proven time and again that he is
just an empty shell of a man. The best we can tell, Luther's lone
motivation for combat is his Handler, that literally leads him around
by a chain.
On March 6th at "Road to ANNIVERSARY", Austin Roberts faces his
biggest challenge ever. A monster devoid of emotion, and perhaps even
independent thought. Luther will stop at nothing to take the one
thing that means everything in the world to Roberts, The DREAMWAVE World Championship.
For the first time in his lengthy title reign, Austin Roberts won't
face a challenger for the World Title. He faces a monster with
nothing to lose and the "World" to gain.
Austin Roberts attempts to defend the DREAMWAVE World Championship for
the ninth time at "Road to ANNIVERSARY" on March 6th, 2010 against Luther.
