Dezmond Cole vs. Ortiz signed for Limitless Wrestling's Fresh Blood

By Josh Nason

A match originally set to take place in August will finally happen in October as Dezmond Cole will take on AEW’s Ortiz at Limitless Wrestling’s Fresh Blood.

The event is set for Saturday, October 28th at 7:30 PM EST at the AmVets in Yarmouth, Maine. Tickets are on sale now but if you can’t be there live, watch it on IWTV with a subscription.

These two were set to hook it up in the first round of August’s Vacationland Cup, but Ortiz had to be pulled in order to compete in the Stadium Stampede match at AEW All In at London’s Wembley Stadium. Cole defeated replacement JT Dunn in a match of the year candidate, but failed to win the tournament.

Cole is coming off a huge win over Alec Price at September’s 8th Anniversary Show in a Last Man Standing match, gaining a measure of revenge for Price costing him in the aforementioned VLC finals. After his victory over Price, he called out current Limitless World Champion Channing Thomas.

Before that can happen, he must pick up a win over Ortiz who will be making his solo debut in Limitless after several tag team outings with former partner Santana. Five years after he last graced the Limitless ring, he will making his own bid to be part of the future and perhaps his own World title shot.

Here’s what’s been announced thus far:

  • Limitless Wrestling World Champion Channing Thomas defends against Ace Romero

  • Dezmond Cole vs. Ortiz

  • Warhorse returns

  • Lucky Ali returns

  • Aaron Rourke in action

  • More to come!
