It's a rematch for the IPW NZ Heavyweight Championship at Redemption!

Knox retained the title in his match against Valentine at last months event Coastal Assault, rolling up Valentine right after he escaped the Knox Out.

Post-match Flag Boy attempted to attack the champ with the title belt suitcase. Knox thwarted the attempt and sent Flagboy flying through the air in a spectacular Knox Out, but while the champ was distracted Alfred Valentine was able to escape the scene with the title.

In a video message to Dal Knox and IPW, Valentine has threatened to deface the title with a power drill if he is not awarded a rematch. IPW management are still deciding whether to allow the video to be aired on Ignition as per Valentine's request, as criminal charges may be made if the belt is damaged or not returned.

IPW management and "The Deal" Dal Knox are both extremely unhappy with Kit Bullion's error at providing "The Ex-Patriot" Alfred Valentine with a title-shot last month at Coastal Assault, but left with no recourse Dal Knox has accepted the challenge, stating "Valentine has escaped the Knox Out for the last time, I am not afraid of the man or his challenge. It's Knox Out time, baby!"

Kit Bullion has still not issued a definitive statement about the stolen title, however, his office has extended apologies to both Knox and IPW for the lapse in judgement. Bullion will honor the challenger's title rematch out of respect to the Champion Knox and not as a result of the threats made by Valentine on the proviso that Valentine presents the championship belt prior to the commencement of the match.

The bout is set to take place at Redemption on July 18!

It's match four in the best of five match series at Redemption! And it's a historic First Blood match!

With Dunn moving ahead after a successful homecoming on the Hibiscus Coast he made sure the momentum was set to stay as he challenged King to a First Blood Match!

With Dunn up two to one, he has the chance to take it all and end the series at Redemption!

King, however, is always at the top of his game when his back is against the wall and is sure to have something in his bag of tricks for "The One"!

When the only way to win is to draw blood from your opponent..what will both men have in store for each other as they fight to be the victor of the series?

Will it be the Silencer Superkick of King drawing blood from the head of Dunn?

Or will it be the brutal powerful offence of Dunn that will cause the blood to flow from the skull of King?

The lust for blood happens July 18 at Redemption!


Also at Redemption, the final round of the IPW Top Team Tournament is set to take place as the remaining teams fight to secure their place in the Grand Finale in Whangarei at IPW Unbreakable August 8!

With XS removed from the tournament, just three teams remain to battle it out in three single round matches to decide the IPW Top Team Grand Final!

Kid Liger of Emerald Justice battles P.A.N.A.T.A's Pirate Burns, Curt Chaos of Saint Chaos takes on Emerald Justice member Link van Haggard and Ninja Fury of P.A.N.A.T.A clashes with Brian Saint James of Saint Chaos!

Who will make the Grand Final? And who will fall at the final hurdle?

Find out at Redemption!

After a callous attack by Flagboy left him without his mask, The Fire Ant returns to action and gets his chance to win back the pride and identity that his mask represents!

Flagboy has done his best to humiliate Ant, parading around with his blood-soaked mask for months, basking in his self proclaimed glory. That was until The Fire Ant returned at Coastal Assault clad in a balaclava declaring with his actions that he wants his mask back! And if he wins at Redemption he'll get just that!

Can The Fire Ant leave Redemption with his mask and proud identity restored?

Or will Flagboy destroy the Lucha star once and for all, leaving him a bloody mess yet again?

The IPW South Pacific Championship is on the line in a huge trans-Tasman clash as Ashe of IPW Australia crosses the ditch in the hopes of capturing gold for Australia!

In a huge clash of styles, Lil T will pit his high flying and technical prowess against the dark and calculating Ashe, and with the pressure of each company on their shoulders to hold the IPW South Pacific Championship, things are sure to get violent as the continued rivalry of NZ and Aussie continues at Redemption!

Also from IPW Australia, Brandy Alexander returns to New Zealand shores to replace Alita Capri as Evie's tag partner in what should be an explosive match!

Last month saw Kit Bullion make an unlikely pairing of Alita Capri and Britenay against an equally unlikely pairing of Evie and JPE for the Costal Assault event.

The match lasted only a few minutes before both pairings turned on each other, resulting in a DQ. JPE viciously attacked Alita Capri's left arm, resulting in a fracture of the proximal radius.

Bullion has therefore organised a replacement in Brandi Alexander of IPW Australia.

To iron out the problems which occurred at Coastal Assault, Bullion has also made a more logical pairing of Brandi and Evie to face JPE and Britenay. But with JPE and Britenay failing to see eye to eye on a number of occasions in the past, it could be another combustible match!

After teaming together in a losing effort at Rival Turf 08, can the high energy pairing of Evie and Brandy secure a victory this time around?

Will JPE and Britenay be able to co-exist?

Find out at Redemption!

Jordan Invincible is sure to be looking to release his frustration of being removed from the IPW Top Team Tournament at Redemption but it will be far from easy as he locks horns with "The Professional" Joseph Kinkade!

And with Kinkade failing to capture South Pacific gold, both men will be looking to make a statement to IPW management that they deserve a chance at more gold!

IPW: Redemption takes place on Saturday July 18 from 7pm (doors open 6.30pm) at Westlake Boys High School, Forrest Hill, North Shore City. Tickets are available at the door for $15 Adults, $8 Children (13 and under) with under 5s free.
