MANILA, Philippines – The year 2015 for Philippine Wrestling Revolution (PWR) ended with a bang, as Ralph Imabayashi overcame all odds – and shenanigans by the Royal Flush – to win the PWR Championship from "Classical" Bryan Leo at Terminus.
The new PWR Champion celebrates that victory at PWR's first show of 2016, PWR Live: Road to Vendetta, on Sunday, January 31. Will Leo, the man he defeated, spoil the party and demand a rematch?
Meanwhile, Philippine Hybrid X (PHX) Champion Ken Warren makes his return from vacation in the US. Plus, Chris Panzer and Bombay Suarez warm up before their scheduled cross-promotional title matches at Malaysia Pro Wrestling.
