It’s been an incredibly busy and productive month, and we’ve had some
major signings and so it is with great pleasure that we announce them
to you.
Shadow Fire Promotions has signed an agreement to distribute for Elite
Pro Wrestling out of New Lenox, IL. This up and coming promotion
features some of the best wrestling talent from all over the Midwest,
such as our longtime friend, XXXplicit Bailey Mannix, Silas Young, the
Iron Saints (Sal, Brandon and Vito Thomaselli, the latter being a
former Instructor for Pro Wrestling IRON in Hayward, CA, another
client of ours. Brandon is a former NWA Midwest Junior Heavyweight
Champion, and Sal is a versatile tag team wrestler. All of the
brothers have seen much success in various incarnations of their tag
team.), Jason Dukes and more. Some of the best veterans with a good
mix of young up and comers. Plus, Elite Pro works with a unique and
different set of rules than many of their contemporaries due to what
they feel are too many rule infractions from the wrestlers, so they’ve
loosened up (or in some cases completely eliminated) the most
frequently ignored rules and toughened up the wrestlers in the
process! Look for Elite Pro’s next card on November 4 in Steger,
Illinois!
We’ve also signed a deal with Liz Savage of Middletown, New York.
Although Liz is a relative rookie to the sport, we believe she has
much potential and look forward to seeing championship gold around her
waist someday soon. For some reason, all the guys seem to like her,
too! You can check out Liz at MySpace.com/wrestlingdiva, or her Yahoo
group, groups.yahoo.com/group/prowrestlingdivas, so make sure you add
her and let her know you found her through SFP.
In our final signing, we have entered into an agreement with Joe Geary
of Geary Enterprises and Upstate Glamour in Rochester, New York. Joe
is a professional photographer and commercial artist and will be
helping us by using his vast network of professional models to model
our t-shirt inventory for all of the wrestlers we have t-shirt deals
for. If you are a model or aspiring model in the greater northeastern
region, look up Joe at UpstateGlamour.com. In our quest to become a
full-service media company, we are pleased to be working with Mr.
Geary. We hope to be able to send wrestlers to him whom are in need
of some posed photographs and previously unable to secure the services
of a professional photographer to create them. Miss Savage (no
relation to Randy!) is already taking advantage of Mr. Geary’s fine
photography!
Look for the individual links for all of these fine folks soon on our
Affiliates & Links page, if they are not there already!
In other news, we have some new items in stock. First is the very
rare Japanese WCW release, Rumble in the Rising Sun. This tape
directly precedes SuperBrawl I and features the first matchup of Ric
Flair and Tatsumi Fujinami for the NWA World Heavyweight Championship.
We are offering this tape to our list for only $55, all shipping
included. That’s $20 less than the current going price for this very
rare tape. In order to qualify for this, you have to inform us of
your intent to buy this tape from us DIRECT. Send a money order or
pay via credit/debit card. Established customers my pay via personal
check. DO NOT get this from us through a third-party vendor, or you
will not qualify for the discount.
Other new items in stock are the even rarer European import CD,
Piledriver (yes, the companion CD from the 1987 WWF video) and some
even older AWA videos (For you newer fans, the AWA used to be a single
promotion that ran the greater Midwest area, such as IL, IN, MN, MO,
WI and thereabouts. Some featured names during the AWA years were
Hulk Hogan, “Mean Gene” Okerlund, Sgt Slaughter, Larry Zbyszko, Eric
Bischoff, The Road Warriors (Legion of Doom), Mr. Perfect (Curt
Hennig) Milwaukee favorites Dick the Bruiser and “Da Crusher”, Bobby
“The Brain” Heenan, Jesse “The Body” Ventura, Scott Hall, Shawn
Michaels and others.)
The tapes we have are Larry Zbyszko; Sgt. Slaughter & Co.; The Road
Warriors: The Hawk & The Animal; and The Road Warriors: Road to the
Championship. These AWA tapes all are $30 each, plus shipping.
We also have a few new postings in the job openings section of our
site, too, so make sure to check it out.
Finally, we would like to show the results of NWA Wisconsin’s most
recent show at Baba Louie’s in DePere, Wisconsin. This was a stacked
card from top to bottom, with an afternoon training session/skills
session with TNA star, The Canadian Destroyer Petey Williams
instructing. The card also had Ring of Honor’s Jimmy Jacobs and
former WWF star, Zach Gowen.
NWA Wisconsin X-Divison Champion Dysfunction defeated Chris Black, TC
Washington, Dredd and Bobby V in a 5 man gauntlet match to face Petey
Williams later in the show.
“Irish” Mikey McCoy defeated Xavier Mustufa via pinfall.
Silas Young defeated ROH’s Jimmy Jacobs via pinfall.
Peter B Beautiful defeated Zach Gowen via pinfall. Gowen has issued a
challenge to Peter B to return and rematch him at Baba Louie’s again
on November 3.
J-Cash and “Cadillac” Nick Colucci defeated Don Gotti, Jerry Styles,
Ruff Rider Rashann and Jamie Da Weezel via pinfal
NWA Wisconsin Tag Team Champions Esteban Molina & Ricky Thomas
defended their titles against Sam Haynes and “Metalhead” Steve Stone,
which ended in a no contest when Dredd & Bobby V interfered.
TNA’s Petey Williams pinned Dysfunction after Silas Young interfered
in the match.
Look for NWA Wisconsin at The Bar in Green Bay THIS WEEKEND for
“Nightmare On Lime Kiln”, featuring the returning Horace the
Psychopath battling Sam Hayne! Head to NWAWisconsin.com for details.
