JUNE 25, 2001 - Muncie, IN

In what can be considered it's biggest disclosed NPWA signing yet, EWA Enterprises has announced the acquisition of former NYSWF World Heavyweight Champion, and former NEWF/NPWA employee Matt Hoffman.

In a short press conference held today at the EWA headquarters. Matt Hoffman, and several top level EWA officals and talent scouts discussed the signing. The terms of the deal were undisclosed, but if Matt Hoffman's mood can be considered a guage..it was very lucrative..as he was very chipper and cooperavitve over the course of the press conference...

"I'll be having a face-to-face with Duane so we can finalize things and such, but as of now, i'm all but offically under contract in the EWA, and i couldn't be more excited. This is a huge oppurtunity for me, and i'm very much looking forward to competing with the stars of this federation." said Hoffman, when asked about the signing.

Matt Hoffman has almost fully recovered from a concussion and a neck sprain he suffered at the hands of Chris Kanyon several weeks ago, and may be involved somehow in the Clash of the Champions Wednesday night, and could be competing in an EWA ring as soon as next week.
