Missouri Wrestling Revival has been giving t-shirts away all over the Midwest at numerous pro wrestling promotions’ events, but on April 17, 2009 in Des Moines, Iowa for 3XWrestling’s “April Showers…  of POWER!” at the Des Moines Social Club, “Rockstar” Jimmy Rockwell took the time before his outstanding MWR Midwest Best Series match with Mike Sydal to make the latest t-shirt giveaway special.

Before the bell sounded, Rockwell tossed the MWR t-shirt that he wore to the ring out into the crowd, landing into the arms of two young wrestling fans, Thomas Christiansen and Michael Oliver.  Immediately after the match, in which Rockwell successfully defended his 3XW Cruiserweight Title in what many are already calling the match of the evening, the boys made their way to the merchandise table, picking up a Jimmy Rockwell 8×10 photo.  No doubt that Mr. Christiansen and Mr. Oliver tried to get the photo signed!

Please remember to support Missouri Wrestling Revival…  the company that continues to “Give back to Midwest pro wrestling!”

MWR gives back to Midwest pro wrestling!

The Lake of the Ozarks newspaper has a great article about former WLW wrestler Matt Murphy and his transition from pro wrestling to a writing career after an injury ended his pro wrestling dreams.  I encourage you all to check it out!

SCW is history!

With Shane Hollister defeating Marek Brave at the end of Scott County Wrestling’s 2009 Prestige Rumble this past weekend as a member of the Pro Wrestling NEXT faction, SCW has officially closed its doors and out of the ashes is PWN!  Some might cite tradition being thrown out the window with the closing of SCW, but many are looking to the future and a renewed sense of pride in what the wrestlers and fans have accomplished in the Quad Cities area.

Also that night:

The Northstar Express and Arik Cannon defeated The Ohoenix Twins and Shane Hollister in an excellent six-man tag match.

Danny Daniels defeated Mike Sydal in a match that saw Sydal’s popularity with the crowd continue to increase.

SCW-PWN Heavyweight Champion Mississippi Madman defeated Marek Brave in a title versus hair match.  Madman cut osme of Brave’s hair before Brave escaped.

PWN makes it’s debut on Friday, May 15th at Beyond The Baseline in Davenport, IA.  While the message board is up and running, we are told that the PWN website located at ProWrestlingNEXT.com will soon be up and running with information on this event. Stay tuned for more details.

Absolute Wrestling Radio host Mark Bland made a shocking challenge to heavyweight champions within 200 miles of St. Louis yesterday.  He wants any of them in the ring.  One-on-one.  He doesn’t care who.  The man mentioned “The Rebel” Jeremy Wyatt by name, but who will answer the challenge?

Plus…  Wrestlemania 25 results and discussion, the upcoming TNA Lockdown card, Nate Diaz vs Frank Shamrock, and more!
