At one of the biggest shows of the year the current WLW Tag team Champions Steve Fender and Mark Sterling proved once again that they are one of the top tag teams in the game today.
MWR was on hand front and center as WLW teamed up with Pro Wrestling NOAH for their annual camp with some of the top talent around the world.
In a spectacular match Ryan Drago and the Cancun Kid attempted to get the title off the hands of who I like to call “Perfect Execution” Fender and Sterling. The Kid and Drago were just one millisecond away from becoming the new WLW Tag Team Champions.
In the end it was more of the same as Sterling and Fender continued their stranglehold of the tag team scene in WLW.
We got words from the Champs as well as the distraught young team of Ryan Drago after their match.
MWR Fans in the near future look forward for more WLW news including

The 2009 MWR Promotion of the Year returns this Saturday October 23rd at 8pm with another all-star wrestling card at the East Carondelet Community Center. Already signed is an “Old School tag Team Match” 2 out of 3 falls featuring the team of Dave Vaughn and Danny Boy battling against Gary Jackson and Brandon Espinsoa.
That is not all, also signed at the request of Travis “the Crook” Cook, is Ron Powers in a handicap match. Travis insisted at the last show that Powers needs to “earn” another shot at any of his men. If Powers can beat any two wrestlers then Travis will consider allowing him another shot at his stable boys.
The tension is building as always in the MMWA-SICW.
Many feel that Davey Richards is the best in the world and they may very well be right but in the Midwest there is one name that is always mentioned as one of the best in the Midwest.
That mans name is Mark Sterling.
He is the NWA Central States Champion, One half of the WLW Tag Team Champions and the 2009 MWR Wrestler of the Year. No One and I mean no one has the desire to be on top more than Mark Sterling.
Show after show, miles after miles Sterling strives to get to the top.
On October 22nd in Davenport Iowa at Pro Wrestling Next it will be Mark Sterling vs Davey Richards.
Two professionals with one goal in common, to be the very best today.
Don’t miss it.
Plus for the very first time Sunny makes her way to PWN.
Throughout the history of wrestling, there have been wrestlers that sought out the help from the self claimed masterminds to give them the edge in their quest to become the best.
The Grand Wizard led both Stan “The Man” Stasiak and Superstar Billy Graham to WWWF Championships. Fred Blassie made the term “pencil-neck geek” famous and shocked the world in 1982 when his man the Iron Shiek defeated Bob Backland to win the WWF, thus endings Backlands title reign of nearly six years in 1983,
Throughout the 80’s colorful managers such as Capt. Lou Albano, Bobby Heenan and Jimmy Hart were household names in the sport. JJ Dillion led the Four Horseman to glory and in doing so changed the sport as we know it. Tag Teams would become legendary with the minds of Paul E. Dangerously Jim Cornette calling the shots.
Now Midwest Wrestling fans I give you Chad Mylan……Chad Mylan the voice of 3XW you say?? Well just in case you have been living under a rock for the past few months, Chad Mylan has made a stir all the way from Des Moines Iowa to the St Louis area with his protégé Ricky Kwong.
At 3xw in August “The Laotian Sensation” Ricky Kwong (with “The Laotian Liasion” Chad Mylan) defeated “The Rockstar” Jimmy Rockwell by “submission” to become the NEW Pure Wrestling champion in perhaps the biggest travesty in the history of 3XW. Mylan explained before the bout that he used his financial resources to arrange for a special guest referee – Todd Countryman!
Despite the 3-on-1 odds, Rockwell forced Kwong to submit to a Boston Crab at one point in the match, only for Countryman to take the mic and explain that “that version of the Boston Crab is illegal in Des Moines, Iowa” and restarted the match. Shortly after, Kwong applied the Lethal Laotian Lock to Rockwell, and with Rockwell reaching for the ropes, Mylan jumped on the apron and used his whole body to pull the bottom rope way from Rockwell’s grasp. Out of frustration, Rockwell slapped the mat, causing Countryman to call for the bell on account of Rockwell “tapping out.”
The very next month Chad Mylan led Ricky Kowng ina quick win over “The Right Price” Aaron Masterson in seconds after nailing Masterson with a crane kick immediately after Masterson excitedly hugged the ring announcer after entering the ring. Before the bout, Mylan took the mic and explained that 3XW Commissioner Todd Countryman wasn’t giving Jimmy Rockwell a rematch tonight due to Rockwell assault him last month, so Mylan arranged a new challenger.
After the match, Midnight Guthrie came to ringside and handed ring announcer Daryl Moon a note from the Board of Directors that stated “while the Board respected Countryman’s decision, it had arranged a suitable replacement to challenge Kwong for the belt,” leading to……Ricky Kwong successfully defended the title over the returning Darin Corbin by pinfall after interference from Chad Mylan. Despite the loss, Corbin really impressed the crowd in his return. After the match, Kwong continued to attack Corbin, only for Jimmy Rockwell to run out and make the save.
Many many miles away Chad Mylan was up to his old tricks at MECW when he tricked MECW Independent Champion Gabriel Brimstone to sign the contract for the rematch, he didn’t notice the clause that Kwong could choose the stipulation…and he chose Mylan as the special guest referee. Mylan was as impartial as you might expect, developing an arm cramp during the pin cover after Brimstone hit the DDT. Kwong rolled up Brimstone with a handful of tights and Mylan fast-counted the pin to become the new MECW Champion.
In Ricky Kwongs first title defense it would be his former Tag team partner and now arch enemy Jimmy Rockwell challenging him, with Mylan on his side on that night Kwong would have his hand raised.
This Saturday MECW returns to action in Wood River Illinois, what will Chad Mylan and Ricky Kwong be up to next?? Be there and find out…..
Wrestling fans in Des Moines Iowa get your tickets for a barn burner when these two meet once again in one of the top feud running today at 3XW on November 5th.
We caught up with both of these great competitors recently and they had these words for the MWR Fans. Editors Note: I Found it interesting that Ricky Kwong is both the 3XW Pure Wrestling Champion and the MECW Independent Champion but Chad Mylan still goes on and on about Ricky Kwong not getting any chances?? What?
This is our CAN’T MISS EVENT as we lead into NOVEMBER REIGN!!
LIVE! LOCAL! LEGENDARY! Pro Wrestling done RIGHT!

Scott Keyes vs Matt Cage
Scott Keyes was impressive in his debut last month at CUTTING EDGE. However, he came up just short of winning. The New Midwest Wrestling Office took note of the crowd’s immediate acceptance and decided to give Keyes another opportunity. Matt Cage is a traveled Midwest wrestling star, who has always wanted a crack at New Midwest Wrestling. It’s put up or shut up time for these two new faces in New Midwest!
This weekend join Missouri Wrestling Revival in Glen Carbon Illinois when High Voltage Wrestling teams up with NWA Dynamo for a star filled event.

Already signed to the card NWA Central States Champion Mark Sterling takes on the returning Kevin X.
Kevin has been away from the ring for awhile but returned to action for the first time back at the August 28th Dynamo Pro event. With his impres…sive debut a new challenge stands in his way. The current reigning NWA Central States Champion Mark Sterling. Kevin has tasted gold before and now wants to satisfy the hunger that has been reawakened.
Also the HVW Heavyweight championship will be on the line when the Champion “The Tokyo Monster” Kahagas defends against “The Rebel” Jeremy Wyatt.
Wyatt has been surfing a wave of impressive wins as of late.
With a pinfall win over NWA Missouri Champion Davey Vega at the August 16th event during a tag match that saw both Wyatt and Sterling teaming together to take on Vega and Trent Stone. Wyatt has proven once again that he is a force to be reckoned with and he intends to add the HVW Title to his ever growing collection of Championships.
What started as a respectful match between s “the Human Wrecking Ball” Pete Madden and Super Castladi 13 was ended abruptly when Alexandre Rudolph along with Sadie Blaze rushed the ring and brutally attacked Madden. Rudolph was out to make a name for himself by taking out the STL wrestling legend when Kory Twist made his way to the ring and confronted Rudolph. Just a few seconds of exchanges were seen before both Rudolph and Blaze retreated from the ring leaving Twist standing tall and wanting to return to wrestling after 4 years to face Rudolph man to man in the ring.
Twist commented that if Rudolph wants to try and make name for himself at the expense of others it will not start with Pete Madden.
Last but not least October 16th will mark another return as the 2009 MWR Tag Team of the Year the Hooligans will defend their HVW Tag team titles and be on hand to receive their MWR Plaques.
STL cult legend Pete Madden has won the fans over in Kansas City with Metro Pro Wrestling, He will be in action this Saturday at NWA Dynamo and High Voltage Wrestling. If you have doubts of the mans talent lets take a look at Madden in action against one half of the Barrio Boys Domino Riveria who is led by the Latino knockout Lucy Mendez.

Last Month we made our way back to MECW in Wood river Illinois for a great night of wrestling. A fun filled card with two men that has to be mentioned as MWR Wrestlers of the Year for 2010 Bailey Mannix and Eric Allen. These two have been friends at times but the desire to be the MECW Championship has been too much for them to maintain the good feelings in the ring.
One of the most entertaining duo in the game is the MECW Tag Team Champions Jordan McEntrye & Knight Wagner otherwise known as Bromance. Led by the vixen Eryn they look to hold onto the titles for a long time. Their biggest test to date is the Bowery Brawlers , consisting of Maddog McDowell and Mauler McDarby. Can Bromance keep this young team at bay?
For the first time I was on hand to see the new MECW Independent Champion Ricky Kwong led by his manager Chad Mylan. Mylan has been a handful at 3XW in Iowa and the drive all the way to Illinois has not calmed the eccentric manager. Can former champion Gabriel Brimstone or fan favorite Jimmy Rockwell spoil Mylan’s plans to take over MECW?
Chris L.O.G.A.N has been very impressive in his short time at the MWR coverage area, taking on the likes of Mannix and Tony Kozina. He is able to over power you and punish you with multiple suplexs. Look for big things to come from this man.
Sarin Sinn brought in some muscle from Chicago with the debut of Mike Anthony. What will the veteran Anthony have in mind for his future at MECW?
.
Can the Youth sensation Evan Money rebound after coming up short last month in his bid for the MECW Title?
This and much more is why you should check out MECW in WoodRiver on October 23rd.
