Friday Night Fights Returning in 2016!

After an ambiguous end to the Kombat Fight League in 2015 -- it can now officially be announced that Friday Night Fights will continue in 2016!

Though the KFL sub-league has officially been dissolved; the weekly gathering will continue to offer an outlet to fighters looking to break through to the Pre-Show and Supercard circuit, raise their rank standing, or simply pursue grudges and developing feuds! Speaking on behalf of the League Council, Mick explained, "Weekly KFL events did a tremendous job of introducing and elevating its members in incredible ways. By absorbing Friday Night Fights into the major league, that opportunity can now be offered to even more deserving fighters."

The first Friday Night Fights of 2016 will take place later this week - January 15th! Mick gave a preview of what can be expected: "The first Friday Night Fights of the new era will be very familiar. December's "Armageddon Month" created a lot of unresolved tensions in the KFL. Those fighters deserve a chance to work out their differences and I'll be personally watching as they do."

The watchful eye of the League Council will be an important one, and the first week could have high stakes for former KFL fighters: "I expect Friday Night Fights to develop a distinction from Pre-Show and Supercard events. Those are the big dance everybody wants to get to. Fridays will still feature some of the headlining stars of the league, but they're special attractions. I'm much more interested in the new names who will use this opportunity to reach for Supercard status."

Matches announced for Week 1 of the new Friday Night Fights include:

- CCShadow & Scott-Howell versus "Catch 22" Ironize & AcidicWonder
- NovaStarr versus Knickxasawrrrr
- "Lucifer's Ladder" UlcaTron & hydraslash versus "The Predator" TonyTheTiger
- "Pegaso" Zentile versus Murdoink
- "The Rocket" MKR versus nightbreed_16 versus Nephrite
- avenger45 versus Jironobou
- subzero776 versus zebraska

Each match stems from December events in the KFL, including: TonyTheTiger's blitzing of the field and both Corrupt members of Lucifer's Ladder; Knickxasawrrrr's hard fought victory over NovaStarr; Zentile's near-miss against Murdoink; and more!

Intriguingly, a Duo Division main event will pit KFL stalwarts CCShadow & Scott-Howell against incumbents from The Invasion "Catch 22" Ironize & AcidicWonder. It'll be a grudge match of sorts for Scott-Howell, who found himself surprisingly eliminated from Tournament 63's First Round by AcidicWonder! The first sign of the new changes coming to Friday Night Fights!
