The event will take place at the Kroc Center in Atlanta and in a recent interview with WrestleZone, Gresham and Black explained what their goal was in picking the talent for the card as well as explaining the reasoning behind “Modern Age Grappling.” Both Black and Gresham will be competing on the card as well.
“Modern Age Grappling was my idea as far as like borrowing philosophies different psychologies of how pro wrestling should be presented,” Gresham said. “The in-ring storytelling of these different styles. We talk about King’s Road from All Japan, we talk about strong style from New Japan, we talk about the Arc style from Pro Wrestling NOAH that was created out of All Japan, we talk about the Lancaster style, that’s what some people call it, some people call it Mount Everest rules, most people know it as World of Sport. There’s so many different psychologies, even from Lucha Libre. There’s so many different stylistic psychologies that people don’t really recognize and my goal is to bring those styles to the forefront and really like, show people that wrestling is pretty much like mixed martial arts. There’s different disciplines that the combatants have to use.
“Modern Age Grappling is just our way of saying, there’s different styles out here and we want you to pay attention to them, welcome to TERMINUS,” Gresham added. “These are the styles, styles make fights.”
