10/16/01 The UNITED CHAMPIONSHIP WRESTLING heavyweight title is now in the hands of Ricky Noble. Ron Rossi at ringside governed over a tournament that lasted over three hours; it came down to Lee Storm, Manslaughter and Ricky Noble. Lee storm was put out by Manslaughter with the pshyco moonsault, then Noble went to work and hit slaughter with the rick-o-mortis. Congratulations to our new champion! -info. courtesy of United Championship Wrestling 8/06/01 After surviving July's battle against Mack Truck, Rick found himself in a brutal match-up at UCW's CHRYSLER CLASH OF CHAMPIONS event. Brought into UCW by L.E. WARD for extra security at the CHRYSLER CLASH OF CHAMPIONS, former World Wrestling Federation and World Championship Wrestling superstar THE BARBARIAN looked to put a permanent "FACE OF FEAR" on the body of RICKY NOBLE. Both men being stellar examples of human physical performance, this match was sure to be the highlight of the evening for all in attendance! After wearing down "The Most Watchable Man In Wrestling", THE BARBARIAN took the first fall, and looked to have NOBLE on the ropes. . .But then, just as THE BARBARIAN throught he had the deciding second fall in the bag, NOBLE surprised THE BARBAIAN with a swift combination and stole the second fall in the blink of an eye! With the score tied one to one, both combatants had to let it all hang out if they wanted to be declared the victor; and so they did! NOBLE, despite being drained of energy, outnumbered, and somewhat outmatched, put forth a great effort, making what could have been a very one-sided contest into a great spectacle of sports entertainment! And even with the repeated interference of L.E. WARD and his brigade of goons, NOBLE still managed to come out victorious in the second fall and won the match! -info. courtesy of United Championship Wrestling
