Making his long awaited return to the wrestling world will be Jim Powers, who made his debut in the WWF in 1984, but it's not until he began to team with Paul Roma when his career began to take notice. The team of Powers & Roma were called “The Young Stallions", and as a team, they feuded with the British Bulldogs, Demolition and Hart Foundation. In 1987, the Young Stallions defeated then-WWF Tag Team Champions the Hart Foundation in a non-title match at NBC’s Saturday Night's Main Event. After the team broke up, Jim Powers did not have much more success in the WWF. Jim Powers would leave wrestling and then return in WCW during the Monday Night Wars.
 
In WCW, Jim Powers was managed by Teddy Long but did not get past mid-card status when the nWo began to run wild in WCW. Jim Powers wants to show the world that he still has it and will take on "The Widowmaker" Eric Shred on September 6.

Steve Corino is set to appear on Saturday night, September 6 in Worcester against Gino Martino in a Chain Match, and is no stranger to extreme matches. Corino has wrestled all over the world, winning many titles in his travels which includes the ECW World Heavyweight Championship. The “King Of Old School” has wrestled Balls Mahoney, Dusty Rhodes, Justin Credible, New Jack, The Sandman and Tommy Dreamer in some of the bloodiest matches in ECW history, and plans on showing the “Extreme Strongman” Gino Martino what extreme really means. Not only is Corino a former ECW World Heavyweight Champion, but he is a former NWA World Heavyweight Champion, which historially marks you as one the best wrestlers in the world. Corino does not have to go hardcore or extreme, but he is a wrestler; however, if Martino makes him go extreme, it will be a real hardcore match.
