Missouri Wrestling Revival

The company’s flagship television series “Collision” returned to the airwaves of WSIL-TV 3 last Saturday, and the season premiere episode is now online at youtube.com/aapwcollision.

That same day, AAPW presented Hands Across Harrisburg, a special benefit show for victims of the deadly Feb. 29 tornado in Saline County, Ill., that claimed seven lives.

More than 150 fans turned out to support the cause. Two first-round No Limits tournament matches – Jay Spade vs. Matt Cage and Joey O’Riley vs. Christian Rose – were taped that day for “Collision.”

In other action, Bull Bronson continued his winning streak by putting down “Farmer” Billy Hills; Justice and Ace Hawkins overcame the odds to defeat The Convoy and Dave Osborne; and Mike Masters and “Old School Warrior” Ax Allwardt ruined Heath Hatton’s shot at the AAPW Heavyweight Championship.

Hatton’s match with Edmund “Livewire” McGuire became a tag team match with the two fan favorites emerging victorious over Masters and Allwardt.

Company officials are considering the event a success, as the overall Hands Across Harrisburg event raised several thousands of dollars.

Now, this Saturday, AAPW will debut its new webseries,”All-Access,” on YouTube and returns to action for the second “Collision” taping of the season at the Black Diamond Harley-Davidson Warehouse in Marion, Ill. Bell time is 7 p.m. Saturday, April 21.

Mike Sydal vs. Mike Masters; the final first-round No Limits match between KC Jackson and “Beautiful” Brandon Aarons and more.
