For the first time since 2018, former WWE Superstar Paul Burchill is returning to the ring for World Classic Professional Big Time Wrestling's The Great Fall Bash 2: Season of The Hitman. Burchill will take on Gangrel in singles action. Burchill cut a promo on his opponent, responding to some of the things that Gangrel had said about him and promising blood in the match. Burchill also promised that there would be blood in the match, just none of his.

"Gangrel, they reached out to me and asked me to send some kind of a message promoting our match on the 30th of September in Chillicothe, Ohio. Raise the colors, raise the flag, but I've heard what you've been saying. You've been making all kinds of threats. You're talking about, 'There's gonna be blood.' Son, you've got a real short memory. It's been a while since you and me got in the ring together. That was a long time ago, back in England. Actually, while I've got England in my mind, I'll do a little word association just to illustrate the depth between you and me. Gangrel, when it comes to England, you're Elton John. Me? I'm Jack the Ripper. 30th of September, Shoemaker Center, Chillicothe, Ohio, The Vampire Warrior vs. The Ripper. The only blood is going to be your blood on my hands, and there's two things you can do about it: nothing and like it," said Burchill said in a promo uploaded to the Developmentally Speaking YouTube channel.

Burchill departed WWE in 2010 and last wrestled for OVW in a multi-man match in 2018. This event will also mark his first convention in over 13 years, as he will be taking part in photo-ops and autograph signings prior to the event from 12:00 to 5:00 p.m.
