Piledriver: Suckerpunch

WORLD WIDE CHAMPIONSHIP FEDERATION WRESTLING PRESENTS...

PILEDRIVER: suckerpunch

No-holds-barred comedy from the behind-the-scenes world of pro wrestling.

One of the most successful shows in the history of the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater -- and definitely the most violent -- makes its triumphant, vendetta-filled return... in stunning pay-per-view form!

PILEDRIVER, which last year played to sold-out houses -- and distinguished itself from other comedy shows by putting a performer in the hospital -- combined real, off-the-top-rope wrestling action (choreographed in part by professional wrestling trainers) with comedy from some of New York's finest improvisers.

Can the evil Serbian Nightmare defend his cruiserweight title against psychiatrist-turned-wrestler The Super Ego?

Will Ken Woodson improve on his lifetime record of 229 losses against 0 wins?

Will The American Dream recover from his injury in time to vanquish his arch-enemy, The Reaper?

And what of the Madonna-Whore complex, the ill-conceived tag team featuring former nun The Missionary and former adult film star Whorey Whorey? Can they defend their title against the overpowering Britishness of Lord Alfred Wreckingball and The Pugilist?

Join broadcasters Dick Duffy and Chet Solie as we follow the action both on-stage and off in the comedic soap-opera that is World Wide Championship Federation Wrestling (WWCFW), a struggling minor-league wrestling circuit.
