This past weekend, my good friend ICON who is internationally known for his artwork, The Gods of Thunder, which features 355 Wrestling legends called me to tell me that he was to meet the former WWF (E) Champion the Ultimate Warrior in Chicago. The painting took over three years to be finished and has earned rave reviews around the world.
The artwork has been featured in the WWE 2011 January magazine and ICON has been active it trying to get each and every living wrestling star to sign the poster.
The last I saw ICON he and I was a special guest of Bob Geigel and his wife Vera at his home. The last time I had been to Mr Geigel’s home we presented him with the 2011 MWR Lifetime Achievement Award. When Icon asked me if I would be willing to introduce him to the former NWA President, I made the call and we were invited once again to see one of my childhood heroes.
Once again, the Geigel family welcomed us to his home and Icon was able to take the tour of his wonderful basement full of memories. I asked him if the next time we came if we could tape him as he gave us the tour so that you the MWR fans can get a feel of what a wonderful experience listening to Mr. Geigel tell stories of his family, wrestling and meeting the stars in Hollywood.
Afterwards Icon was able to have Mr. Geigel sign his poster along with the other wrestling greats and even gave the couple their own Gods of Thunder artwork.
So as ICON headed to Chicago to meet the one and only Warrior, I traveled to STL to cover IHW and the return of Brandon Aarons.
When I got back home , Icon was more than thrilled with the friendliness and excitement that the Warrior showed as he saw the painting The Gods of Thunder. Here we have a photo of the Warrior signing the poster as the fans flocked from around the Midwest to meet the Warrior.
Icon stated that the Warrior “was thrilled to meet the fans and stayed overtime to meet his fans. The Warrior not only signed what was asked of him but also took the time to meet the fans and carry on the conversations. He was totally positive, looked in great shape and was a treat to the fans.”
Icon was also able to catch up with a female wrestler that I have been wanting to make her way to the MWR Coverage area for some time in the female wrestler December.
ICON is currently doing an exclusive artwork for an MWR Trading card, and in the near future look for his exclusive MWR Wrestling Fantasy Warfare art in the 2011 MWR Yearbook.
While in line Icon has a fan recite’s Famous Wrestler’s Lines At The PCW Event

MWR fans around the country was thrilled last year when Jeremy Wyatt and Mark Sterling, two men widely considered to be among the top wrestlers in the Midwest went at it in a classic 60 Min Iron Man match.
When the smoke cleared and 60 min had passed the two men were tied. Fans came to their feet wanting the exciting action to continue, the wrestlers beat and battered did not hesitate to give the fans what they wanted.
After seven more min, Mark Sterling had defeated Wyatt as the fans gave the two a standing ovation.

That is an understatement; the most entertaining tag team in the sport today is loved by fans around the world for their no nonsense, party animal, rough style of tag team wrestling.
The self-professed “next President of the United States,” Mark Briscoe and his brother has Jay been in some of the greatest tag matches in the past ten years with the top tag teams in the sport.
Mark Briscoe would get our vote for President of the United States but not only is he capable of doing that but he is also a great weatherman.
Classic matches from Japan to the USA with men like Samoa Joe & Bryan Danielson, Christopher Daniels & Matt Sydal, Chris Hero & Claudio Castagnoli, KENTA & Naomichi Marufuji, Alex Shelley & Chris Sabin, Shelton Benjamin & Charlie Haas, Davey Richards & Eddie Edwards and CM Punk & Colt Cabana are just a few of the many top teams around the world that they have taken on that fans are still talking about today.
While WWE fans talk about Wrestlemania and spend money to see which celebrity will show up, fans of old school, kick you in the face style of action that is not called Sports entertainment, The Briscoe Brothers is your team. Tag team wrestling at its very best and though they don’t are not politically correct, each and every night they tear the house down.
Mark and Jay sets the standard for wrestling and party the hardest as they continue to be worth the price of admission alone for each and every show that they are on. Currently the Briscoe’s reign supreme at Ring of Honor as the ROH tag team champions for the seventh time in their career.
It is with great pleasure that we are to announce that the top tag team in the world for the past ten years is now a part of the MWR Trading Card set. That’s right Demboys have arrived.
