An astounding tag team battle tops the SICW card in East Carondelet this coming Saturday, Oct. 19. Not only is WWE Hall-of-Famer Hacksaw Jim Duggan a special guest Saturday, but two “odd couples” collide in the main event.
There is as much chance of trouble between both pairs of teammates as there is a chance for a wild war between the teams!
Classic Wrestling Champion Ironman Ken Kasa combines with one of his most dangerous contenders, the clever and nasty Flash Flanagan. And two former Classic titleholders form the opposition — Ron Powers and Ricky Cruz.
That’s right, it’s Cruz and Powers on the same side after a unique set of circumstances brought together two stars who have shared bumps, bruises and spilled blood in an intense feud.
Promoter Herb Simmons did some fast talking putting together this superb duel. He convinced Flash that the best way to earn a title crack was prove to Kasa and his manager Travis Cook how good Flanagan was by helping the champ defeat two dangerous foes. And despite his strained relations with Cook and crew, Simmons somehow got Travis to accept the idea that having someone like Flanagan as a partner would assist in beating Cruz and Powers would push both down the list of challengers.
Simmons further persuaded Powers and Cruz that the best way to a title shot for either would be to swallow and forget their differences short-term. Getting a win over Kasa and a partner like Flash could help either Ricky or Ron earn a title shot.. The fact that both Powers and Cruz have had violent episodes with Flanagan made it even more appealing. The chair-swinging explosion between Flash and Powers, plus a recent title match ending when Kasa got disqualified against Cruz and soon Flash and Powers were slugging it out in the ring had all involved thinking.
So Cruz and Powers try to bury the hatchet …. at least next Saturday in East Carondelet. Hacksaw Duggan will have plenty of action to watch . . . plus:
The Big Texan faces Jake Dirden. Gary Jackson and the unpredictable Dave Vaughn have a rematch with a longer time limit after going to a draw on Sept. 21. Heath Hatton and Alexander Rudolph square off. 410-pound Bull Bronson is back, fiery Michael Cage debuts and more.
And will Travis Cook even be there after be blasted with a guitar by the Honky Tonk Man in Belleville last Saturday?
Clearly, Mr.Duggan will not be bored this Saturday at the East Carondelet Community Center.
