Our first official match announcement for BATTLE CHAMPIONSHIP WRESTLING 74: 10th ANNIVERSARY SHOW is a BCW HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP STEEL CAGE MATCH featuring the newly crowned Champion, JOHNATHAN PRESTON (c) versus the 2026 Battle Rumble Winner, MADDOG!
JOHNATHAN PRESTON’s destiny was finally fulfilled as he won the missing piece of his Triple Crown Championship, when defeating BLUE DEMON JR for the BCW HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP at BCW 73. Since winning the 2025 Battle Rumble, THE AUSTRALIAN PSYCHOPATH has waited for his moment to capture the highest Gold in the Battle Kingdom, defeating opponent after opponent before being curtailed by his most recent foe. The stars are now aligned, and BLUE DEMON JR is a hindrance of the past while PRESTON is Champion!
At the end of MADDOG’s victory at BCW 73, THE PATRICK BATES OF THE BATTLE KINGDOM made his intentions clear, namely that he was going to put the dog down. Not one to back away, MADDOG welcomed the challenge and offered a Steel Cage, now here we are with violence of the highest order on the menu.
