It's the time of year when wrestling mania sweeps the world and that means Dragon Gate USA will present the annual six man tag team match, which is consistently among the best matches of the year. This year's version is the most star studded yet. Here's the skinny:
The Six Man Tradition Continues
CIMA, Ricochet & Masaaki Mochizuki
vs.
Low Ki, Akira Tozawa & BxB Hulk
Dragon Gate USA presents "Mercury Rising 2012"
March 31st - 8pm Belltime Deauville Beach Resort
6701 Collins Avenue
Miami Beach, FL 33141
This match was made on Twitter over the weekend after a series of Tweets from DGUSA Vice President Gabe Sapolsky, Low Ki and CIMA. Please click those links and read those Twitters for all the details. Here's a look at each individual:
CIMA - The current Champion of Dragon Gate in Japan and known as "The Dragon Gate Icon" in Dragon Gate USA. Currently half of the DGUSA Open The United Gate Champions with Ricochet. One of the most well rounded and best wrestlers in the world.
Ricochet - The 2011 break out star in both the United States and Japan. Won an unheard of three championships in his first year in Japan in addition to being one half of the current DGUSA Tag Team Champions with CIMA. Known for his cockiness as well as his incredible athleticism and aerial ability.
Masaaki Mochizuki - A true veteran and one of the most respected wrestlers in Japan. Placed high in almost every 2011 year end awards for wrestler of the year after holding Dragon Gate's top title. Possesses incredible kicks and submission skills.
Low Ki - On a quest to "take my profession back" and will do so in Dragon Gate USA and EVOLVE. Has held titles all over the world and won season two of WWE NXT as Kaval. Opponents fear his kicks, strikes and double stomp.
Akira Tozawa - Considered one of the most outstanding wrestlers of 2011. Has incredible charisma and an instant connection with any crowd. Puts opponents away with suplexes.
BxB Hulk - Was the first DGUSA Champion and had an impressive title reign. Now has a darker look and meaner attitude. Can fly or go kick for kick with any opponent.
This event will take place right on Miami Beach at a resort hotel. It is part of the WrestleReunion convention, which features several unique and fun experiences with legendary names. Follow www.DGUSA.tv for the latest.

JUST TWO MONTHS UNTIL EXTREME REUNION FAN FEST & LIVE EVENT: It is amazing to think that the popularity of wrestling industry again is at an all time low and that Extreme Reunion has taken it upon themselves to once again make wrestling history in just two short months --60 days and reignite the sport of professional wrestling, as the Extreme Reunion hits the Pennsylvania National Guard Armory in Northeast Philadelphia, PA with a Fan Fest and then at 7pm a Live Event that will pay homage to what Extreme was and is known as, but also an event to look forward to a new future. A future where if the original E.C.W were still around to this day would be hosting entertaining live events, breaking new wild talent, and who else knows where this Reunion can take us. One thing is for sure, anyone in attendance will relive that original feel of what is remembered or heard of what extreme was all about, as we aim for everyone to be left with an overwhelming excitement level to the next announced event.

ON A SIDE NOTE: Final words for today... we've noticed that some indy wrestling guys have been talking down about the whole Extreme Reunion event and the talent involved. We will just chalk it up to jealousy and just trying to get noticed. No one kicks a dead dog. Here's what we can tell you, if you don't see someones name on our website as to being on the event, then they are not booked on the event. Which is a whole different story because a moment ago they were talking bad about it, but now they want to be booked on the show? Makes no sense to us either.
