Mark Sterling is highly considered the top wrestler in the Midwest. The current MWR Wrestler of the Year debuted a few months ago so it was with great excitement when promoter Herb Simmons and I spoke that he was to return to action at MMWA-SICW.
His will face off against the Mike Sydal.

This will be the very first time that Sydal, the 2009 Pro Wrestling Illustrated wrestler of the Year will wrestle for MMWA-SICW. Sydal has had a banner year in 2010, making his way to wrestle for Ring of Honor for several months all around the country and on Direct TV’s HDNET ROH Monday night wrestling. In Kansas City fans have seen Mike Sydal on their TV screen for Metro Pro Sports wrestling.

Now for the first time Sydal will be coming to their TV in St Louis.

Who will win this sure to be classic match and where will you be when it happens? There is only one place to be and that is in East Carondelet on Saturday.

Fans of the big men of wrestling, will have their gift in the match of Ron Powers going toe to toe with the Big Texan. These two have fought inside the ring and outside the building with no definite answer to who has the edge. The pressure will be on both men as Simmons has mandated that this be a Leather strap match.

This is setting to be the war of all wars so therefore a special ref has been assigned to maintain control in this war between two behemoths.

Last month tensions was up in sell crowd at East Carondelet during the battle between Dave Vaughn and Brandon Espinosa.

Vaughn is looking to regain the momentum back after losing the MMWA-SICW Championship from Espinosa’s teammate The Future” Donovan Ruddick in Travis Cook’s group ‘The Elitism’.

Photobucket

Espinosa is one of the very best in the game today and with Travis Cook in his corner he looks to keep Vaughn from moving back up the ladder with a big win in this 2 out of 3 falls match. Promoter Simmon’s issued a stern warning to Travis “the crook” Cook that if he interferes there will be a price to pay.

MWR Christmas wish list of matches for 2011.

Posted by flairwhoooooo on November 26, 2010

By Brian Kelley

2010 is near a close and the yearly awards are coming up quickly with some very tough decisions to be made from the awards committee over who will honored with the Wrestler, Tag Team, female, and promotion of the year.

So instead of worrying about who I am going to give my vote to I am going to flip the script.

I am going to make my Christmas wish of matches on this Black Friday  that I would like to see in 2011.

Instead of matches that have done before I am going to do my best to name 10 matches that to my knowledge have not happen before.

So without further ado I give you my Christmas wish matches in NO certain order.

1) Bailey Mannix with Lovely Leon

vs.
Jaysin Strife

– It is no secret that I have mad respect for both of these competitors. These two men going at it would be a true wrestling classic. One could say that Mannix has the power advantage but Strife could be just a little faster. Neither man is afraid to get their hands dirty and brawl with the best of them. A true wrestling classic in every aspect.

2) The Barrio Boys (Angel and Domino Rivera) With Lucy Mendez

The Extreme tag team (Photo Credit Jerry Chavez)

vs.

Attitude Inc. (Spencer Powers and Guy Smith )

Attitude Inc. (Guy Smith and Michael Shard) – Can New Midwest Wrestling handle being EXTREME? Former ECW Original Angel and his partner Domino Rivera is two men that many promotions run and hide from signing them to the fed.

Attitude Inc appears to be all show but the Boyz would soon find out that Guy Smith and Michael Shard can go.

3) Dixieland Destroyer with The Magic Man

vs.

Shane Rich (Photo by Mike Van Hoogstraat)

Shane Rich – The beauty and the Beast is what I would call this AAPW clash. Rich has the good looks and conditioning but would it be enough to overcome the hillbilly power of the Destroyer.

4) Donovan Ruddick

Mephisto feels the power of Donovan Ruddick.

vs.

Abu Colossus

Abu Colossus delivers the pain on Preston Maxwell(Photo Credit Gary Giaffoglione)

– OK I have been begging for this match for a long time now. Don’t believe me click here to read a former article of mine that sets this match up perfectly. With Ruddick on the verge to explode would Colossus put out the spark first.

5) The Hooligans (Devin and Mason Cutter)

The Hooligans

vs.

The Gentleman’s Club (Casanova and Devin Carter) with Todd Countryman.

The Gentleman’s Club (Casanova and Devin Carter)

– The Hooligans have been almost everywhere but they have not been to the 2008 MWR Promotion of the Year 3XWrestling. With the Gentleman’s club running hot shot over everyone would the Hooligans be able to sway the good fortunes over fan favorites? Or would the mastermind Todd Countryman make them his next victim.

6) Lucy Mendez

Lucy Mendez has come on strong in 2010.

vs.

Santana G

Santana has teamed with some top talent in 2010 but she has yet to win the WLW Womens title.

– Two of the most popular women in the Midwest today. Mendez has had all the eyes on her at Metro Pro Wrestling. What if the Midwest Sweetheart was to show up? No women I know wants competition and the real winners in this battle would be us the fans.

7) Jeremy Wyatt

Every young wrestlers nightmare Jeremy Wyatt (Photo Credit Mike Van Hoogstraat)

vs.

Evan Money

Evan Money-

To become the best that you can be you have to work your way to the top. Money the teenage heart throb has had a solid year in 2010. Wyatt is considered by many to be the best in the game today. You say Money has no chance to survive against “The Rebel”. In Money’s defense he has earned some tough wins but this would be a measuring stick for one of the Midwest hottest young stars. My advice Money, if you have a belt stay far away from “The Belt Collector” Jeremy Wyatt.

8) Dan Walsh

Dan Walsh

vs.

Rory Fox

Rory Fox

-MTV vs MTV – Rory Fox gained national fame as one of the featured personalities on MTV’s True Life while Dan the Danimal” Walsh starred in MTV’s Road Rules. Need I say more.

9) Steve Fender and Mark Sterling

vs.
BroMance Jordan McEntyre and Knight Wagner with Eryn

– Different styles for sure, Fender and Sterling are no nonsense hit you in the mouth tag team in the style of Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard while BroMance is….well they are BroMance a team with a lot of flash but can blind you with their double team abilities.

10) Trevor Murdoch

vs

Jonathan Magnus with Stephani King

Jonathan Magnus with Stephani King- No one likes a bully and that is what Magnus is at New Midwest Wrestling. A big man pushing his weight around to keep the NMW title around his waist. I don’t think that Murdoch would be so easy to push around. A match that would be talked about for ages in Springfield Illinois for years to come.

In my personal stocking match-

Crimefighter gets Eric Allens attention

Crimefighter’s chosen wrestler vs. The Pride of Peroia Eric Allen – A perfect match for NMW. It has been over a year ago that we took a look at the contriversal Eric Allen and his supposed win for the “Peorian Pride Championship”, ST louis Wrestling communities Crimefighter called foul quickly. Words and tempers flared between the two in the past but what if the red hot Eric Allen was to show his face in Springfield Illinois at the heart of Crimefighter’s coverage area?

A special attraction match for sure.

Other notable matches

The Cancun Kid vs. Kwong with Chad Mylan
Jason Jones vs. Ryan Phoenix
Preston Maxwell vs. Homicidal Steven Davis
Billy McNiel vs Zach Thompson
Curly vs #1 Brett Young
Jimmy Rockwell vs Brandon Espinosa
Pete Madden vs. Dave Vaughn
Matty Starr vs. Danny Cannon
Tony Cortez vs Brandon Aarons
Dan the Man vs Alexander Rudolph
Bobby Houston vs. Derek Stone
Christian Rose vs. Chris Havius
Bumrush Brothers vs The Beautiful Bodies
Eric Logan vs Tyler Cook
Ron Powers vs. Brian Ash
Donnie Peppercricket vs. Davey Vega

By Brian Kelley
 

Made for TV is one “Rock and Roll” Mike Sydal.

In 2010 fans have been able to catch Sydal at Ring of Honor on their tv screen at Direct TV’S HDNET on Monday nights and most recently in Kansas City on Metro Pro Sports TV for Metro Pro Wrestling.

St Louis fans will now have a chance to see Sydal at the only promotion in the city that has TV and that is MMWA-SICW. Sydal will debut at MMWA-SICW in East Carondelet Illinois.

It will not be a cake walk for Sydal as the man he will be taking on is the current MWR Wrestler of the Year Mark Sterling. Sterling is considered to be the best of the best among the experts and fans alike.

Two of the very best in the country go one on one, and you will not want to miss this early Christmas present to you the fans on December 11th.

MMWA-SICW is the reigning MWR Promotion of the Year and with matches like Sydal and Sterling and Ruddick vs.Vaughn , they are among the favorites in 2010.

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.

MMWA-SICW returns this Saturday in East Carondelet with a Triple Main event

Posted by flairwhoooooo on September 13, 2010

MWR fans you will not want to miss out this weekend as MMWA-SICW is back in action with not one, not two but three matches that promises to be a must see.

If you love big men than you will love the match between Ron Powers and The Big Texan. As my friend Herb Simmons said “ This match is shaping up to be the block buster of the year. The Big Texan is ready to do an all war with Powers.” Powers has stated he is ready to leave the Big Man flat on his back in the ring or in the parking lot.

The Big Texan and Ron Powers this weekend will be a match between two of the biggest men in the Midwest. Who will have their hand raised at the end of the Night?(Photo Credit Mike Van Hoogstraat )

Another heavyweight match pits “The Future” Donovan Ruddick in a rematch with Chris Hargas.Ruddick was furious that Hargas was able to get the pinfall on him in a tag match last year so he demanded that his manager Travis “The Crook” Cook grant him a chance to get his revenge.

Chris Hargas took the fight to the Future Donovan Ruddick last month. Look for Ruddick to make a statement but do not count out the impressive young Hargas. (Photo Credit Mike Van Hoogstraat )

Has Hargas derailed Ruddick on his way to the MMWA-SICW Championship?

Last but not least the Champ Dave Vaughn’s title will be in jeopardy when he goes up against fan Favorite Danny Boy. Danny Boy was granted the title shot when he was able to get his hand raise against Gary Jackson via DQ.

Danny Boy was impressive in his match against the Great One Gary Jackson. Can Danny Boy defeat the MMWA-SICW Champion Dave Vaughn?(Photo Credit Mike Van Hoogstraat )

Jackson has been very vocal about the outcome and has vowed to get even with Danny Boy.

Can Danny Boy get the title off of Vaughn before that happens?
