The Invitational Tournament has propelled EPW wrestlers into super-stardom over the past 15 years and these two young men were hoping that was the case in 2017.
Both Julian Ward and Taylor King have been on the rise this year and both received the opportunity of a lifetime as they clashed in an Invitational Tournament Block A Semi Final.
It would not just be a huge achievement for either of these wrestlers to go all the way and take home the trophy, but they would also receive a guaranteed shot at the EPW Championship in 2018.
Who emerged victorious in this duel of these two rising stars?
