WrestleFest 08 Lineup

Six Man Scaffold Match NLW Television Title
Bret Hart (Champion) vs Shelton Benjamin vs Stevie Richards vs King Kong Bundy vs Edge vs Renee Dupree

Bret Hart has been the champion for nine shows, which is good considering the NLW Television Title gets tossed around between new comers and struggling wrestlers trying to get back into the limelight. Hart falls into catagory 2. Shelton Benjamin recently signed a contract extension and is looking to make huge waves by winning the scaffold match. Stevie Richards can have his impressive matches but when it comes down to winning a title, he just hasn't had what it took to get the strap. Will Wrestle Fest be different!? King Kong Bundy has always been dominant, will his dominance shine at Fest is the question! Edge is a former TNA champion but when TNA closed their doors, Edge faded away as well. Can Edge redeem some of the greatness he once had? Renee Dupree came to NLW to stop Rob Conway from winning the Intercontinental Title but has recently came into his own as a singles wrestler. Renee is one of the favorites in this scaffold match.


Steve Austin vs Joey Landis

Ever since Steve Austin signed to be the head man in charge of NLW, he has pushed who he thought deserved to be at the top. This caused resentment from Joey Landis as The Fabulous one decided to take matters into his own hand. On the 4-5-08 edition of NLW No Limit Warfare, Landis attacked Steve Austin in Austins return tag team match as Austin teamed with JBL taking on Rob Conway and Stevie Richards. Austin agreed to coincide with Landis's wishes and accepted a match at the grandest stage of them all! WrestleFest 08! If Joey Landis wins, he gets two guarenteed World Title Shots, NOT at any time he wants but it has to be fulfilled before 08 is over.


Legend Killer Match
Kurt Angle vs Randy Orton

Steve Austin was interested in seeing Kurt Angle and Randy Orton team and spoke on how to many fans, Angle and Ortons dominance in the past is very similar and these two competitors would be a dream team! Angle and Orton took on The Acolytes, Nathan Jones and Bradshaw and were successful! After Orton and Angle hugged in victory, Angle turned, posed to the crowd and turned back around only to be RKO'd in the middle of the ring! Orton spit in Angles face and challenged Angles career in a match at WrestleFest 08!


NLW Intercontinental Title Match
(Champion)"The Conman" Rob Conway vs " The Showstopper" Shawn Michaels

Ever since Rob Conway brought a new persona to the tables as he wanted to be known as The Conman, he has been nothing but successful. Taking out JBL, Edge and King Kong Bundy as challenges to take away his Intercontinental Title, finally, a challenger has risen from the rubble so to speak. Shawn Michaels was the runner up in this years No Limit Battle, therefore he was granted a match with The Conman at WrestleFest for the Intercontinental Title. Shawn Michaels one upped Conway at the press conference for WrestleFest but sucker punching Conway and giving him some sweet chin music. The Conman announced to the world in a sitdown interview with Steve Austin that he would not only successfully defend the Intercontinental title against Michaels, but it would be match of the night.


NLW World Title Elimination Match
Rey Mysterio (Champion) vs Mr. Kennedy vs John Bradshaw Layfield

Mr. Kennedy and John Bradshaw Layfield eliminated each other at the No Limit Battle. Therefore, Austin granted them both the title match at WrestleFest. JBL and Mr. Kennedy has totally disregarded Rey Mysterio and re-ignited their old feud, attacking each other during matches, cutting promos towards one another while Rey Mysterio hasn't appeared on NLW No Limit Warfare since he defeated Steve Blackman in a whopping 6 seconds. Rey announced that he would be training hard for the match in the Guerrero gym in Mexico.
