The UWN announced:

CHAMPIONSHIP WRESTLING RETURNS TO IRVINE JUNE 23 WITH UWN WORLD TITLE SHOWDOWN, STREET FIGHT, AND MORE

Championship Wrestling returns to Irvine, CA on Tuesday, June 23, with a stacked lineup featuring a UWN World Championship main event, a No. 1 Contender’s Match between tag team partners, a Skid Row Street Fight, championship action, the in-ring debut of Carma and more.

UWN World Champion Jordan Cruz vs. The Epic

Once Cruz’s personal bodyguard and most trusted ally, The Epic spent months standing beside the champion and protecting his interests. That relationship has since imploded. After weeks of growing tension and disrespect, The Epic now gets the opportunity to settle the score and capture the championship from the man he once protected.

UWN World Title #1 Contender's Match: Bad Dude Tito vs. Che Cabrera

Also featured is a unique No. 1 Contender’s Match as Wolf Zaddies teammates Che Cabrera and Bad Dude Tito collide with a future UWN World Championship opportunity at stake. The popular tag team has enjoyed tremendous success together, but on June 23 friendship takes a backseat as both men pursue championship gold.

Tyler Bateman vs. Ray Jaz

Tyler Bateman faces Ray Jaz in a pivotal singles contest. Jaz remains focused on UWN Television Champion Evan Daniels, but Bateman has made it clear he intends to derail that pursuit. With Daniels scheduled to address the audience regarding his ongoing issues with Jaz, the television title picture could take another dramatic turn.

Skid Row Street Fight: Rob McKnight vs. Vinny Pacifico

Rob McKnight and Vinny Pacifico’s increasingly disgusting rivalry reaches its inevitable conclusion in a Skid Row Street Fight. After weeks of humiliation, mind games, and one of the most revolting pranks in Championship Wrestling history, Pacifico finally gets his chance to get his hands on the man who has made his life miserable.

UWN Heritage Champion Evan Daniels vs. EJ Sparks

EJ Sparks finally gets his shot at redemption when he challenges Maximilien for the Heritage Championship. Sparks hasn’t forgotten what happened the last time they met. After losing the title and spending months on the shelf, he’s back and looking to take everything away from the champion who changed the course of his career.

Brittnie Brooks vs. Alex Gracia vs. Carma

The women’s division takes center stage when Delirium’s Carma makes her Championship Wrestling in-ring debut in Triple Threat action against two established stars in Brittnie Brooks and Alex Gracia.
