PREMISE
Owned and operated by indy legends Derek Levy and Hanz Kikazi, TIGERHEART WRESTLING seeks to become the new go-to wrestling promotion of the Florida wrestling scene. The official corresponding wrestling show of the renowned Silver Phoenix Academy (located in St.Augustine, FL.), TIGERHEART WRESTLING will showcase some of the absolute finest young talent aspiring to pursue careers in the squared circle. Aired every Tuesday evening through Sun Sports, with exclusive content on silverphoenixacademy.net, fans new and old will always be able to stay on board.
ABOUT THE OWNERS
DEREK LEVY
After buying the PETEY JOHNSON WRESTLING ACADEMY from his friend and mentor, the late Petey Johnson, Derek Levy proceeded to trim the fat holding the school back and revamped it into what is now known as the Silver Phoenix Academy in mid/late 2010. Having held a grand total of 26 different Championship reigns all over the globe and having held several World Titles, most notably being one of the longest-reigning S&S Universal Champion and the final TakeDown World Heavyweight Champion, Derek Levy is a man who knows how to mold wrestlers. With famous former World Champions like Chris Dash (a former Academy teacher) and Aaron Kendrick, and rising stars such as The Hellions, The Sunburst Kid, Cody Reeves and many more to his credit, Derek expects all his students to bring out the best in themselves and each other. Through him, students can expect to be pushed to their limits as they undergo extensive promo work and demanding chain wrestling training.
HANZ KIKAZI
Having been a major authority of the Japanese indy scene for the better part of nearly twenty years, "The White Tiger" Hanz Kikazi can make a case for being one of the all-time greats. Striking, high-flying, speed, this man can do a little of everything it seems. As the longest-reiging S&S Universal Champion (along with having the most reigns), multi-time IWC World Champion, and a world karate Champion, Hanz brings with him a measuring stick that all Academy students, past and present alike, always strive to reach. When not wrestling, Hanz is either at the commentary table or taking on challengers in MMA matches in the South Florida area. Hired by Derek Levy in 2010, Hanz has had a hand in training the wrestling stars of tomorrow.
THE RULES
As per tradition, victories can be obtained by pinfall, submission, disqualification, elimination, count-out and even TKO wins are possible. However, here is a more in-depth explaination of the rules and regulations of TIGERHEART WRESTLING:
- Each non-title match has a fifteen-minute time limit, whilst main events take up the remaining television time; Title bouts have a thirty-minute time limit. Should any match reach the time limit, the wrestlers will be allowed an extra five minutes. If there still isn't a winner, the match shall then be declared a draw.
- Unless otherwise specified, all matches operate under Pure Wrestling Rules. This means that each wrestler is limited to only three rope breaks and there is a twenty-second count upon leaving the ring. Tag matches, while the Pure Wrestling Rules aspect still applies, also will have elements of Lucha Libre rules in that exiting the ring counts as a tag.
- Unlike most promotions, TW Titles CAN change on disqualification and count-out. The Freebird Rule also isn't allowed. In addition, no one is allowed to hold more than one TW Title at a time.
