After the match, the entire Connection attacked Smith ruthlessly (Jackson was eliminated early on in the match and was in the shower preparing to leave) in the ring. Danny Boy had his hands full but the former Champion did overcome the bad guys and save Keith.

3XWrestling Welcomes National Wrestling Stars

Posted by flairwhoooooo on September 5, 2009

3XWrestling Welcomes National Wrestling Stars
Iowa’s Top Wrestling Company Hosts WWE Veterans

DES MOINES, Iowa – Des Moines-based 3XWrestling (3XW) is proud to announce the addition of two national wrestling stars to its Clobberpalooza Classic II event on Sept. 18 at the Des Moines Social Club.

Former World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) and Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) superstar Al Snow, a widely-known veteran of professional wrestling and multiple-time champion, has signed to compete in the main event of 3XW’s Clobberpalooza Classic II. Snow will challenge “The Rebel” Jeremy Wyatt, the 2008 Missouri Wrestling Revival “Wrestler of the Year,” for the 3XW Heavyweight championship in one of the year’s most anticipated matches.

Snow is most famous for being a major WWE fan favorite a decade ago, when WWE television shows were reaching record cable television ratings. He’s also known outside of wrestling for being the star and head trainer on MTV’s WWE Tough Enough for three seasons and being a playable character in millions of copies of WWE video games sold.

“I have been saying for months and months and months I am the best wrestler in the Midwest,” Wyatt said. “WWE star Al Snow is coming to take my title? Well, you see, I’m Jeremy Wyatt – superstar. I have beaten star after star after star. I’ve beaten Christopher Daniels, Jerry Lynn, Davey Richards, Sonjay Dutt, Tyler Black…the list goes on and on.”

Will Snow make a huge impact and win the 3XW Heavyweight title or will Wyatt continue his dominance of the Midwest wrestling scene? Wrestling fans are anxiously waiting to find out on Sept. 18 at Clobberpalooza Classic II.

Also set for action is current TNA Wrestling and former WWE superstar “The Middle Eastern Nightmare” Sheik Abdul Bashir, who will team with his brother Arya Daivari to challenge The High Flyers, “The Unbreakable” Zach Thompson and Mike Sydal – brother of current WWE superstar Evan Bourne – for the 3XW Tag Team championship.

Bashir, a former TNA X-Division champion, can be seen weekly wrestling some of the quickest and hardest-hitting wrestlers in the world on Spike TV’s popular TNA iMPACT! television program.

He’s also famous for his time in WWE as Khosrow Daivari, where he battled the likes of wrestling legends Hulk Hogan, The Undertaker and “The Heartbreak Kid” Shawn Michaels. In fact, he pinned Michaels in a match on WWE’s flagship television program Monday Night RAW.

The 3XW Tag Team championship match at Clobberplaooza Classic II marks the first time Bashir teams with his brother Arya, who is a regular member of the 3XW roster, to compete on a 3XW event.

Among those also competing on Sept. 18 are 3XW Cruiserweight champion and the 2009 King of Des Moines “The Rockstar” Jimmy Rockwell, “Delicious” Devin Carter, Casanova, Gage Octane, Mark Sterling, Maddog McDowell, Krotch, “The Canadian Sex Icon” Ryan Slade, A.J. Smooth, “The Right Price” Aaron Masterson, “The Asian Sensation” Ricky Kwong, “Torturous” Tony Sly, and more!

Doors open at 7 p.m. for a 7:30 p.m. start time. The Des Moines Social Club is located at 1408 Locust St. in Des Moines.

Founded in 2005, 3XWrestling, a Des Moines-based organization, has performed in front of thousands of fans across Iowa and been featured on Iowa Public Radio and in publications including Juice and Cityview. 3XW events are held monthly in Des Moines.

3XW and its performers are also heavily involved with charity work – a recent 3XW benefit event in Ottumwa, Iowa featuring one-legged wrestling star Zach Gowen raised over $10,000 to help the family of a young man whose leg was amputated due to his battle with cancer. All proceeds from the event we’re given to the family to offset medical costs, with every wrestler performing on a volunteer basis.

Come find out why 3XW is the best kept secret in Des Moines-area entertainment!

Isaan Hadeev reaches pinnacle of career

Posted by reimaginejournalism on September 4, 2009

By Kari Williams

Isaan Hadeev reached the pinnacle of his career July 19 in Danville, IL as he successfully battled Nick Cutler and DaCobra in a triple threat match to emerge with the New Breed Wrestling Alliance (NBWA) Heavyweight Championship. The moment he won the belt, Hadeev “silently thank[ed] [his] son and mother for the strength to continue and be the best in the NBWA.”

Hadeev views his championship victory as the be-all, end-all for his professional career.

“Being the NBWA Heavyweight Champion [is my greatest accomplishment] because that is where I started, and that is where I will finish,” said Hadeev.

Mississippi Madman, a six-year veteran in the Midwest, has high hopes for Hadeev, who Madman has crossed paths with on a number of occassions.

“He will make a great nbwa champion. He is a great in ring technician and [has] great charisma,” said Madman.

Although his desire to become a wrestler developed many years ago, Hadeev did not have the means to do so until he apporached NBWA Owner Don Kato after a show in 2006. His training started the following week. Despite his aspirations, he limited his ambitions for the sake of his family.

“I decided I wanted to wrestle back in 1996 but never had a venue till several years ago. When I started wrestling I wanted to do it full time, but my career outside the ring along with family are much more important,” said Hadeev.

Hadeev values spending time with his family over taking his career to a higher level, as in WWE or TNA. He considers his wife, Angelita, and his children, Austin and Jennifer, far more important. Photo courtesy of Isaan Hadeev

He restricts his travel, somewhat, due to caring for his family but still works for NBWA, All American Pro Wrestling (AAPW) and IWA Productions. While in NBWA, Hadeev had the chance to wrestle “The Japanese Nightmare” Kahagas in the Alberta J. Murray Tournament June 21.

“I would have to say my [favorite] match [was] with the Japanese Nightmare Kahagas because there is no other man in this business today who can match stiffnes, viciousnes and brutality like he and I do. I still want a rematch,” said Hadeev.

Kahagas was unable to comment on the match due to the absence of a translator, however, Hadeev clarifies that he and The Tokyo Monster “really didn’t wrestle each other, we literally just beat the hell out of each other.”

Cutler can testify to Hadeev’s statement, having gone to battle with him only a few months ago.

“Issan is by far one of the toughest guys I have worked with. Physically, me and him match up pretty evenly, but there is a ferociousness about him that I haven’t experienced with anyone else I have worked with,” said Cutler.

NBWA Wrestler Aaron Matthews has been wrestling for five years and has crossed paths with Hadeev on a number of occassions. Matthews’ favorite match was Hadeev’s debut match.

Less than a month after going to battle with “The Japanese Nightmare,” Hadeev walked out of the triple threat NBWA Title match riding high. Perhaps some of what lead to Hadeev’s victory had to do with the way he “get[s] inside the heads of the wrestling fans and the wrestler himself”—his favorite part of wrestling.

“I have not had the opportunity to defend the championship since I just recently attained it, but, in all honesty, I don’t believe I will defend it anytime soon since: One, the fans don’t deserve to see a true talent like myself perform; they are not privelaged enough. And two, there is no single wrestler in NBWA or central Illinois who can match strength, skill and wits with me,” said Hadeev.

Because his love for family outweights his love for wrestling, Hadeev remains content with his current position as the top dog in NBWA.

“What are every wrestlers dreams? To make it to WWE or TNA. But I am a realist and realize that will never happen for me as I choose family over being away 300 days a year. But I know if I focused 100% I would make it,” said Hadeev.

With the help of Kato, “Bloody” Harker Dirge and Corleone, among others, Hadeev has had the opportunity to make his dreams come true, while putting his family first.
