Missouri Wrestling Revival

Matt Murphy took exception to working with SICW and was not too kindly of either SICW promoter Herb Simmons, Larry Matysik and well just about anyone in the building after his loss to Alexander Rudolph. For complete details click here.

Brian, I would like to set the record straight regarding the complaints Matt Murphy is crying about and his selective memory. It is in poor taste for him to even suggest that a person of Larry Matysik’s caliber would set him up to be ambushed by Alexander Rudolph. As you and all the great fans from MWR have come to learn, at the SICW we seem to have the best wanting to come and step in the ring with some of the toughest workers in the business.

Matt Murphy was no different.

He has followed you’re website and has read about the talent we have and I guess he was under the impression that it would be a cake walk, and that we would let him come in from nowhere and run rough shot over the guys in our locker room.

He must have also forgot that it was I that contacted him because he is one of the best in the business, and he has earned all the respect that he receives in his travel around the country- side. But one thing I hope he remembers from his first visit with the SICW, each worker earns the right to be called one of the best. Just as I done at the match in June when I informed the former CWC Champion Ron Powers when he wanted a rematch against current champion Ricky Cruz, he must climb the ladder, and Matt Murphy will need to try and do the same. In the SICW, it’s not who you know, or who you can buy off, it’s what you can do and how you can prove yourself in the ring.

See Mr. Murphy, Larry Matysik, don’t need to prove anything to the great fans of the SICW, or to the fans that read the MWR website. They know Larry is one of the most honest men around and his reputation speaks for itself. For years he has been a household name calling the play by play 52 weeks out of the year on the best watched Wrestling show that was ever produced, no glitz, no fireworks, no forty-five minutes of interviews and just fifteen minutes of wrestling like you get now days’ on television. Back then, just as we require in the SICW, the workers do their talking in the ring.

As for myself, I have been promoting shows longer than most others that are trying to do so now. I know talent when I see it. I don’t get upset by a worker crying or complaining about this or that, but just so we are on the same page, you are correct when you say I booked you for several future shows. I suggested you stop making excuses and show our great fans of SICW just what you can do, unless, you feel the talent is too tough for you.
