KPW Godzina Zero 2023
Godzina Zero (Zero Hour) 2023 was KPW's sixth annual supershow, held since 2016. It also returned the show to its usual date in the middle of August, rather than September like the 2022 edition. The event took place in Klub Nowy Harem, like all recent KPW shows.
The event had two new foreign guests: Welsh powerhouse Iestyn Rees, and German wrestler Ludy Lohan. Returning were: Italian masked wrestler Red Scorpion, the regular Fynn Freyhart, and KPW Tag Team Champions Die Ordnung: Veit Müller and Hans Schulte, all from Germany.
All three championships were defended and two changed hands. The Magnificent Seven Ladder Match was replaced by a Championship Contract Battle Royal, same as on the 2022 event.
Build-up
- Real Man Chemik, since winning his third match at the last event, has grown some serious mustache. In his promo, he explains that to be a man, you have to both look and act the part. At Pyrkon, Leon eliminated Chemik who was mistakenly hit in the head with a chair by his own bodyguard. Chemik wants to show Leon what that feels like, in a Chairs Match.
- KPW's two high flyers Zefir and Fynn Freyhart will face each other. The prize - a shot at the OldTown championship.
- Die Ordnung won the championship belts at the previous year's Godzina Zero, in a four-way elimination match. Filip and Michał Fux were the last to be eliminated. Now they aim for the championship again, in their third match against the Germans.
- In his vignette, Rosetti cashed in his Chairman's Briefcase match. Coming to the Chairman's office, he presents his match, which Malinowski accepts.
