(Live from the newly built AWF Arena in Dorchester Massachusetts)



Jamal J Good: 'Hello ladies and gentlemen. I hope all of you will enjoy posting here in the new AWF Official Thread. Today there will be a press conference where I will allow you the fans to ask me some questions about the AWF and what is going on as of late. I will introduce the new roster and tonight Jericho and Lance Cade will sign a contract to seal the deal for their match at Figamania. So without further or due the floor is now open for questions. Ask away.

[Teh Joker]

What type of match will Jericho and Cade take place in?

[(=wwefan617=)]

Jamal J Good: "Thank you sir for asking the first question. And a very good question at that. Jericho and Cade will go one on one in a no holds barred match. There will be no disqualifications and no count out to assure that someone will walk out of Figamania with the AWF World Championship. And I can promise that it will be one hell of a match."

[Ramos]

Will AWF promote APW's return as GENEXT is doing?

Will there be room for some rising stars in the new AWF?

[(=wwefan617=)]

Jamal J Good: "Well as you all know I am very good friends with the owner of APW and I would be happy to promote and help out with his federation as much as possible. As for your other question, there will be room for rising stars in the AWF. When I release the roster you will be surprised at the number of young rising stars we have to offer. Superstars like Randy Orton, Shawn Michaels, Sting, Booker T, Kurt Angle, and so many more proved to be more of a problem than I had hoped. Young wrestlers have an unmatched love for the business. So to answer your question... yes."

[Ramos]

Will AWF be looking for any new partners to have working relationships with in the future?

I could see some great feds such as TWA having a great relationship with the AWF.

[(=wwefan617=)]

Jamal J Good: "I see you are full of questions sir. And I love that. Thank you for the questions. So... I really would love to build partnerships but as of right now the AWF bandwagon is full. Although TWA is an amazing federation who offers some fierce competition I doubt there will be any merger between the two. GeNext is sailing along just fine, but money is a bit... tight right now. I will inform you more as the press conference goes along. You just have to ask the right questions. Thank you very much sir. You may ask as many questions as you'd like."

[Ramos]

Why is money tight right now in AWF? I heard rumours it was due to a divorce settlement of Ric Flair's is this true?

[(=wwefan617=)]

Jamal J Good: "You're on fire sir. Well... I was afraid a question related to Flair would come up sooner or later... and in all honesty... Flair is no longer the owner of the AWF. He was not fired or taken out of his position. He left due to the stress of the attacks and the pressure from the wrestlers regarding a pay raise. In addition, the old AWF arena was vandalized, taking a pretty penny out of Flair's pocket. Flair sold the AWF shares to me and the owner of GeNext. Flair did not want to sit around and watch the company he loved die. And I doubt after the vandalism and merciless attacks if Flair will ever return to the AWF or wrestling at all.

[Ramos]

Thank you for answering my questions, however I have one more at least:

When will the identity of the mystery attacker be revealed?

Will we find out before figamania?

[unionjack]

will there still be awf rebellion and are there any titles to replace the the us and the lightweight title or are you keeping them .

very clever wwefan and intresting aswell

[(=wwefan617=)]

Jamal J Good: I will now address both of your questions. Thank you for your patience. First I would like to say that the AWF Light Heavyweight division has unfortunately... been cut as well as rebellion, but later down the road I will consider incorporating hardcore wrestling into the show. And as far as the attackers go... The culprits were taken into custody at approximately 8:27pm last night. Chris Masters of GeNext is responsible for the attacks and he has been fired and blacklisted from many other wrestling companies. For weeks Masters had been demanding a title shot, but when he was denied he took matters into his own hands. In order to get what he wanted he attacked GeNext wrestlers along with All American League wrestlers. But who could do all of this by themselves?... no one. Which is exactly why Masters worked with... Finlay. As all of you may know Finlay was suspended for attacking AWF, talent scout Jimmy Hart during an episode of eXposed after being told he could not compete in the championship tournament. That was motive enough for Finlay to join Masters in causing havoc all throughout the company. Both men have been fired and will rightfully serve jail time.

[unionjack]

thanks for answering

shocker of finlay and master's

shame about rebellion but still looking farward to the rebirth of awf :=]

[Ramos]

I never expected it to be these two :-O

Will there be a revenge match for the attacked superstars?

[(=wwefan617=)]

Jamal J Good: "There will be no revenge match. I will never ever let those two step in an AWF ring again. And many of the wrestlers who were attacked are no longer on the roster because of pay or other personal reasons. Here is the new and in my opinion improved AWF roster."

Heavyweight Division
Mr. Kennedy
Chris Jericho
Cowboy Lance Cade
Muhammad Hassan
Elijah Burke

All American Division
Jesse Flash
Diamond Dallas Page
Edge
Christian
CM Punk

Tag Team Division
Jeff Hardy & Matt Hardy (Team Xtreme)
The Miz and Shannon Moore (The Mizfits)
William Regal & Paul Burchill (The Queen's Men)

[unionjack]

since you are having more young and rising stars does that mean that you will be having indy wrestlers or just mainstream

also is awf still partners with xfallx's michigan wrestling fedaration

[dmallett4]

When will you be announcing the new roster, and is it likely to feature more independent wrestlers?

Will the shows still be called Rebellion, and how many matches are we likely to see per show? Does the AWF have a television deal?

[Ramos]

Love the roster Sir, Is Jesse Flash, Jesse from WWE's Jesse & Festus?

[(=wwefan617=)]

Jamal J Good: "And the questions keep pouring in. OK the AWF has dropped the show Rebellion and now only has two brands, All American League and GeNext. While, MWF is considered a close friend we will not cross paths business wise. MWF is doing their own thing and we are doing ours. As for the show length, we will have at least 3 matches per show. The shows should be released every 2 or 3 weeks and will be televised. And you sir, Jesse Flash is indeed Jesse formerly with the WWE. We believe he will be a great addition to our roster... Hold on... I'm being told that there is a call in from GeNext. Lets take it. Hello.

Gruner: Hey Jamal! Good to hear from ya again. Sorry I couldn't be there for the press conference, but ya know, trying to get the next GENEXT show movin. Ha ha ha...cheap plug



Anyway, the events that are being brought to the forefront today take no one in the AWF family by surprise. Mr. Flair's stepping down as owner and the financial hardships due to the aforementioned attacks and pay disputes, are all matters that have been known for some time. However, an appropriate disclosure was never available, until today.

Mr. Good and I have spoken in great lengths and are still as committed as ever to making AWF and its' brands the most entertaining and successful wrestling entities today.


As far as the attacks on the AWF, both Genext and All American League. I believe the consequences for both individuals was swift and just action. For Genext's Chris Masters it certainly will be an unfortunate loss for our roster but a necessary loss. That said, I also offer my full support to the All American League Brand in whatever way they need.


I apologize I cannot spend more time with all of you now, but hopefully I can chime in later on this evening. Thanks Jamal for taking my call and Thank you to all the fans that support the American Wrestling Federation.

Jericho and Cade to Seal the Deal
As announced earlier Lance Cade and Chris Jericho will seal the deal for their match at Figamania by signing the contract making everything official. The two will go head to head at Figamania in a no holds barred match up for the AWF World Championship. The contract signing will take place in the AWF arena located in Dorchester Massachusetts at 8 o clock pm.

Impressing Press
Earlier this morning AWF All American League CEO held a press conference where he answered questions regarding Flair's absence, the identity of the attackers, and the future of the AWF. There was a great turnout with many important questions. Jamal J Good had this to say about the media's interest. "I was very pleased with the outcome of this press conference. I thought people had forgotten about the AWF or just simply didn't care, but I was pleasantly mistaken. There was a great turn out and I would like to thank the fans and the press for coming out." As stated earlier the contract signing will occur later tonight.

THE FLOOR IS STILL OPEN FOR QUESTIONS
