Tommy Knight (PWDU No. 7, 2022) has reclaimed the Wrestle Rampage Australian National Championship after defeating Corndog over the weekend. The two heavyweights are no stranger to each other having battled it out last year in November for the championship, Corndog ended Knights 11th month reign as champion at Wrestle Rampage All Or Nothing 2022.

Wrestle Rampage posted the following on their facebook page..

“Two gladiators that will define an entire generation in Australian wrestling went to war last night in a rematch for the Australian National Championship. Corndog’s championship reign had become synonymous with classic Professional Wrestling matches with each passing defence. Prior to the contest Tommy Knight declared he won’t be delivering a classic match, just a classic monster moment.”

The first Australian National Championship match was held in 2007 between Mikey Nicolls and Bobby Marshall. Former champions over the years include Damian Slater, Ryan Eagles, Jonah Rock (WWE’s Bronson Reed), Hartley Jackson, Mikey Nicolls among others.
