Give this person Kudos, for seeing the truth, in this world of heartfelt lies.

Thank God, there is someone out there that accepts me for who I am, unlike certain people, who groomed me to be who THEY wanted me to be. I won’t mention any names, Herb Simmons and Larry Matysik, but you two should of quit while you were ahead.

Wait a minute, now that I think about it, when were you ever ahead?

I’ll answer that…….Never!

You two, myself, and anyone else who knows squat about this business, knows that I’m always steps ahead of the promotions, as well as the competition. It definitely looks like the tail wags the dog when I am in the lineup. Fans strongly dislike me. But when I step into the ring, it’s like a car accident; they just can’t keep their eyes off me.

Herb, you should be grateful for my return. I’ve brought your promotion to a new level. SICW has never been hotter. Wrestling Explosion on Charter Cable has never had higher ratings. The word is out.

Ron Powers is “the best heel in the country”.

No other local wrestling promotions can hold a candle to SICW when I am on the card. And here is some more good news for you and Larry, I’m not going ANYWHERE.

Sorry Harley (Race), it’s just not worth my time, to go down to Eldon and beat up all of your backwoods, hillbilly want to be’s.

Sorry South Broadway. If idiots could fly, your promotion would be an airport. And sorry to all the other want to be promotions. Without me, you will always be second in the ratings. SICW rules because of Ron Powers.

SOMEBODY STOP ME!

—CCW Champion Ron Powers

When I got this message from Ron Powers I quickly contacted promoter Herb Simmons to find out more on this situation. Here is his reply.

MMWA-SICW Promoter in 2011 has been on a search for top talent. During this year Dory Funk JR has came in with his students and several graduates of Harley Race’s Wrestling Academy have been making their way to St Louis for an opportunity for TV exposure in the St Louis market. They will have to share the risk of meet Ron Powers along the way.. In the picture Herb and WWE Hall of Famer Bob Orton watch in disbelief as Powers demolishes Chase King.

Ron Powers is big, bad, and just plan old mean. When I approached Ron Powers awhile back it was for the purpose of helping get the likes of Manager Travis Cook under control. I knew Ron had what it would take to bring some justice to a situation that was out of control. Well that problem was corrected, however, another one began. Powers is out of control and even with bringing in some of the best in the business he is still running rough shot over those that face him. I get questions asked every month who will stop this awsome individual. Beleive me when I say the time will come when Ron Powers will meet his match. He better enjoy his ride while he is still able to sit in the saddle. There is no one able to last forever. So I say to Ron, yes I ask for your help and you did come through with it, Travis is gone, now do me and everyone else a favor, be the guy that I know you can be before you force me to look deeper into the past to find the right person to correct this problem with you.

That’s right MWR fans, if you love wrestling the way it use to be then do not hesitate to come to MMWA-SICW this weekend as Chris Hargas will look to get revenge on the CCW Champion Ron Powers in a match between two of the most powerful men in the Midwest.

Plus a special attraction match as the 2009 MWR Wrestler of the Year Mark Sterling will take on Gary Jackson.

That and much more just a few minutes outside of St Louis in East Carondelet. Free AC, great wrestling and a tv taping all for the same low price.

Attitude is everything!!!

That’s what they will tell you but one has to watch out for the great double teams  and head games that the New Midwest Wrestling tag team champions come at you with.A triple threat combination, Smith, Powers and Shard can hit their opponents with high impact moves at any time. While many were shocked that they won the 2010 MWR Tag Team of the Year, there has been no one to step up to prove that they were not deserving of that title.

One would have to say that the prestige of the award has only made this team that much more confident and deadly. Since then they have added manager Perry Winkle to the group and have a stranglehold on the NMW Tag team titles.

Fans at Saturday’s “AAPW Collision” taping were treated to a night of intense in-ring action and a fair amount of surprises, proving why it pays to be there in person rather than just watching on TV. 

The big surprise of the night came when Executive Producer Chris Hagstrom told fans Ring of Honor World Champion Davey Richards would be appearing at the next “Collision” taping on Sunday, Aug. 28, at the Black Diamond Harley-Davidsion Warehouse in Marion. 

Richards is considered by many to be one of the best wrestlers in the world. He captured the ROH title from tag team partner Eddie Edwards in June and has found success wrestling across the globe, including earning a spot in the semi-finals of this year’s Best of the Super Juniors tournament in New Japan Pro Wrestling. 

“Having the nationally recognized heavyweight champion from Ring of Honor on ‘Collision’ shows how All American Pro Wrestling continues to grow and give back to the fans. We couldn’t have been happier with the response,” Hagstrom said. 

Why is Richards coming to AAPW? The only way to find out is by attending the August taping.

AAPW also debuted a new, official “Collision” T-shirt, produced by Silkworm. The shirts, black with the show’s logo on the front, will be available beginning at the August taping. One lucky fan, Josh Alderman of Marion, took home the first shirt. 

More AAPW merchandise will be available in the future. Let us know what kind of items you’d like to see by connecting with us on Facebook, Twitter or the discussion boards at allamericanprowrestling.com. 

Match results from Saturday’s taping will be posted after broadcast. “AAPW Collision” debuts at noon on Saturday, Sept. 3, on WSIL TV-3. Episodes will air in that timeslot every other week.

AAPW makes its way to Black Diamond Harley-Davidson, the new home of “Collision,” at 2 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 28. Doors open at 1, for ticket information click here.
