Memories of ST.Louis Wrestling “THE GOLDEN DAYS OF WRESTLING AT THE CHASE” May 10 and May 11”

Posted by flairwhoooooo on January 12, 2013

SICW Promoter Herb Simmons has provided the MWR with the pleasure of being the first to break a major announcement.

In May of this year he and the Argosy Casino in Alton Illinois SICW will be promoting a two day wrestling event. Per  Simmons “the deal came about when he was contacted by the Director of Marketing from the Argosy Casino. I met with representatives and immediately knew they both had knowledge of the history of wrestling in the St. Louis Region. They not only had the knowledge, but had researched the “Wrestling at the Chase days”. Because of all the articles they had viewed regarding our history of preserving the history with Larry Matysik and the other greats that we have brought in over the past years, they felt there was a time and place to continue on our mission and passion of keeping those memories alive.”

So on May 10 and 11th at the Argosy Casino in Alton Illinois those memories once again will come to life.

Already signed to be a part of this MEMORIES OF ST. LOUIS WRESTLING “THE GOLDEN DAYS OF WRESTLING AT THE CHASE

AND LARRY MATYSIK to name just a few.

Also that night the Master of Ceremony will be St. Louis sports caster from KSDK channel 5, Frank Cusumano, He will lead the answer and question portion from the audience to the legends.

Then on Saturday evening the action in the ring will begin. you will need to come and be a part of this historic night of wrestling because all of this and much more is scheduled for a night that you will forever remember .

As more names are added to the list of legends MRW will be the first to know so check back and mark those dates, Friday May 10 and Saturday May 11th at the Argosy Casino in Alton Illinois, FOR MEMORIES OF ST. LOUIS WRESTLING “THE GOLDEN DAYS OF WRESTLING AT THE CHASE” !!!

SICW returns in 2013 on January 19th, in East Carondelet, Illinois!!

Posted by flairwhoooooo on January 11, 2013

Photobucket

In an amazing moment in 2012, Ricky Cruz quickly won a number one contender’s battle royal on his first night at 3XWrestling to rocket him into main events across Iowa. Cruz is now the hunted, with all the superstars of the Midwest looking to take the CWC Title off his waist- Photo Credit Peyton Mitchell.

You will not want to miss the action on January 19 at SICW in East Carondelet when the Classic Wrestling Champion Ricky Cruz returns to action to defend his title. Cruz returns from headlining in Iowa the past few weeks a marked man.

The action and drama is heating up with questions galore on who will be able to take the prestigious title from the Champion first.

Will the manager supreme Travis Cook be able to lead either “The Wrestling Machine” Dave Vaughn or “The Iron Man” Ken Kasa to the promise land?

As the 2012 came to a close, the longest reigning, most feared man in all of wrestling, Ron Powers sent a message to promoter Herb Simmons by putting fan favorite Sean Vincent on the shelf for the whole year of 2013 by injuring his leg. Will the former Kingpin of SICW Ron Powers be able to take back what he feels is rightfully his?

On the hunt as always is the opportunist and wily veteran, “Gorgeous” Gary Jackson who’s 3 rules of wrestling has lead himself to championships throughout his career.

How about the young stallions of SICW? Men like Jake Dirden, Brent Myers, Alexandre Rudolph, Bull Bronson, Heath Hatton  and Chris Hargas who would love to put themselves on the wrestling map by defeating one of the top wrestlers in the country Ricky Cruz and adding the SICW Championship to their resume.

It is lonely at the top, even more so for the Classic Wrestling Champion and Ricky Cruz is now the hunted. Each and every day word leaks out that some of the toughest men in the country want to make their way to have the CWC belt around their waist.

You just never know who may show up in a SICW ring.

So mark your calendars for 2013, it is going to be an exciting year in East Carondelet, Illinois. Stay tune at Missouri Wrestling Revival for exciting updates throughout the year, for your number one source of SICW news in the Midwest.

Support wrestling artist Raven Johnson and get a sweet deal.

Posted by flairwhoooooo on January 10, 2013

Photobucket

MWR has been blessed to be friends with some of the top artist in the country today. With that friendship we have featured artwork of stars from yesterday to today. One of those fine talents is that of Raven Johnson. Johnson of course was the artist for the 2011 MWR Yearbook and will be doing both the cover and back of the 2012 Yearbook that will feature the likes of Adam Pearce, The Great Cheyenne, Ricky Cruz, the American Bulldogs and more. In the past Johnson has done some artwork for Darin Corbin and Ryan Cruz, the Northstar Express, Christina Von Eerie and t-shirt design and MWR trading cards for MsChif as well as the MWR Trading card of current SHIMMER Champion Saraya Knight.

I received word from him recently that he was looking for support for a project that he was currently doing. If you were to help him with reaching his goal not only would you be supporting a man that has utilized his talents to assist our wrestling fraternity but you could also get some really cool artwork.
Without further ado I leave you with the message from Raven Johnson from his website

http://www.unshure.com/

Hey everyone,
Hope you all had a good…or at least decent new years eve…..and all that junk.

First off, I want to put this out there.
I need sponsors for my new comic,
I basically need to raise $200 bucks.

Instead of doing a kickstarter or indie go go thing. I figure I can do it without all that crap.
I average at least 20 hits on this site a day, so there’s gotta be someone out there willing to sponsor…right?

Anyway, here’s what i’m thinking…
I only would need 10 people to contribute $20 bucks.
And if someone wants to do this contact me either via email, or if you know me personally….text me, call me.

If you contribute $20, you will receive the comic(signed if you wish), an original page from either Cell Phones and Cigarettes #1 or 2(first come, first serve), a special mention on my website, and in the comic itself, and an art piece of your choosing…in color…whatever you wish for me to draw you!

If you contribute $10, you will get the comic, a mention on the website, and comic…..and an art piece of your choosing.

*Update*
If you just want to pre-order the book itself, $5, will get you the book(signed if you wish), and that will cover the books cost, plus shipping.

So basically that’s it….if you don’t know me personally just email me at:
unshure88@gmail.com make sure the subject is about the comic funding contribution in some fashion….so I know to answer it…in a timely manor.

I want to send the comic off to get printed by the beginning of February…maybe mid Feb. So it should be available mid March.

I have received two donations already of $20. So two original pages are spoken for. But there are still more!

So hopefully I can get some help with this.
The only reason I ask…my day time job is slow at the moment….which actually gives me time to work on the stuff I want to work on. But as you all would know…the less you work, the less money you have coming in.

So if anybody can help a brother out…that would rock!

First off are a bunch of stuff i’ve done for Pro-Wrestler Courtney Rush.
She rocks, and if anybody out there is a pro-wrestling fan, def check her out.
I’m sure google will give you all sorts of results…plus i’m pretty damn sure she has matches on the ol youtube.
