Missouri Wrestling Revival

In a historic night of wrestling from Lemay Missouri, MMWA presented the fans with the first ever King of ST Louis Cable tournament. The winner of the tournament would not only be named the first ever King of St Louis but also receive a title shot against MMWA Champ Gary Jackson at a later date. Jackson was in the tournament and if he would win, he would be the one to decide who he would face.

In the first round TV Champion Brandon Espinosa was able to overcome the raw power of David Osborne, Phil E. Blunt(w/ Leo) defeated Jr. Heavyweight Champion Johnny Courageous, Battle Royal Champion Dave Vaughn was dominate in a match against Max Archer(substituting for the injured Sean Vincent) with the spear while MMWA Champion Gary Jackson defeated Ace Hawkins via Texas Cloverleaf.

In the second round fans were surprised to see Phil E Blunt give Espinosa the win by staying out of the ring voluntary. Espinosa would not get off so easy as the young and popular LaMarcus Clinton came to the ringside letting Espinosa know that he was wanting a shot at the TV.
