Already Signed Matches:
Justice Pain vs. Nick Gage...CZW World Heavyweight Title
This feud is legendary in CZW and these two men have had classic matches in the past including their infamous Staple Gun Ladder Match and their brutal Anything Goes war. This will be a battle of two of the most devastating finishers in CZW...The Chokeslam Backbreaker vs. The Pain Thriller. Its been almost 2 years since these two have met one on one and they are more than ready for this match. Trust me, they will not disappoint the Philly crowd.

Zandig vs. Lobo...Control of CZW vs. Lobo's career
We havent seen these two face off since COD2 in September 2000, and on 2/9/02 they will finally meet again. Both men are true innovators of ultraviolence and have been involved in the sickest CZW matches ever such as a No Ropes Exploding Barbed Wire match, the Pyramid of Hell, and the Cage of Death match. These men have been hit countless times with light tubes, put through glass, impaled in barbed wire, and driven through tables...what else could these two possibly do to each other? Lobo has promised this to be one of the most violent matches ever. We'll see for ourselves at the ECW arena on the 9th.

Backseat Boyz vs. VD...CZW Tag Team Titles
The Backseats used a ladder to retain the belts in their first match with VD at "September Slam 2001", where Eddie Valentine suffered a broken hand courtesy of the CZW World Tag Team Champions after the match. VD defeated the Softcore Connection and Divine Storm in a tag team 3 way dance at "Enough Is Enough" to get back to the top of the tag team division...this victory earned them a match against the champs at the next show. CZW "And Justice For All" - The Backseat Boyz once again defeat VD in another great match. VD has never held the tag belts and I think its their night on 2/9/02 to capture the gold for the 1st time.

"Sick" Nick Mondo vs. The Messiah...Fans Dream Match
Nick Mondo has earned the right to be called "Sick". But what about Messiah? Messiah has been thrown off cages, slammed on thumbtacks, put through tables etc., but has he ever done anything as violent as what Nick Mondo has done at past events such as Un-F'N-Believable, Stretched In Smyrna, H8 Club Dead, and Break Away Brawl? I don't think so! Messiah debuted with CZW last month when he accepted Justice Pain's challenge for the CZW word title and came out of that match with tons of stitches in his head. Both Mondo and Messiah are crazy and willing to take unbelievable risks, but don't forget, they can wrestle too. Mondo has stated we WILL see huge bumps and some "sick" stuff in this match. I think this match has potential to be an early candidate for ultraviolent match of the year, but wether it is or not, expect them to give 110% to the fans.

Possible Matches:
Midnight Outlaws & Ruckus vs. Divine Storm & Brian XL
Chris Cash vs. GQ

No Shows:
Z-Barr and Nate Hatred WILL NOT be at the show since they are in Japan. The S.A.T. will once again not be there due to previous bookings, and Jeff Rocker has apparently left CZW for California.
