| THREE TITLE MATCHES SIGNED FOR PWO LIVE IN YOUNGSTOWN MAY 2 Pro Wrestling Ohio makes its second-ever stop in suburban Youngstown, as PWO teams up with the Championship Wrestling Experience for another stacked and loaded live TV taping! PWO returns to the Eastwood Expo Center, 5555 Youngstown Warren Rd, in Niles Sunday afternoon, May 2 with a special 5 pm belltime! Tickets are ON SALE NOW in our official online store www.PWOwrestling.com/catalog. Front row tickets are only $15, and General Admission is $10. Reserve your seats now and pick them up at the door the day of the event, and remember to bring your signs & be enthusiastic so YOU can be seen on national television! Our first HUGE matches announced are sure to set the tone for an unforgettable evening! PWO Heavyweight Title - JOHNNY GARGANO defends against JASON BANE Unquestionably the two most successful - and most marked - men in PWO meet one on one in the ring for only the second time in history. Both athletes have had to do whatever possible to simply survive in PWO in recent times. Jason Bane has lived the past six months unable to trust anyone, as Aaron Maguire has placed a hefty bounty on the head of PWO’s Most Dominant Man that only seems to grow with time! However, thus far Maguire’s plans have backfired, as Bane has used this roadblock as motivation to get into the best shape of his life and work his way back to the top toward a PWO Title opportunity. Meanwhile, Johnny Gargano has faced countless challenges week after week from wrestlers of all shapes and sizes who feel they deserve the shot at the PWO Title. No matter the opponent, Gargano has somehow found a way. But is there a way around Jason Bane? Bane has survived the bounty, Gargano has survived the mounting pressure, but will each survive the other? And who will walk out as PWO Champion? PWO Tag Team Titles - SEX APPEAL defend against GREGORY IRON & HOBO JOE Hobo Joe & Gregory Iron were easy targets for the superficial superstars in Sex Appeal until they banded together to fight the good fight. Iron was being exploited as a scapegoat by Bobby Beverly, blaming Greg for the loss of two teeth in a match last year, while Hobo was deemed “unfit” to appear on the same television program as Sex Appeal, and was nearly eliminated. Iron & Hobo have had to adjust to one another, Hobo learning to trust again after being betrayed by all his former friends, and Iron having to cope with Hobo’s unorthodox ways, all the while having his issues with Johnny Gargano in the back of his mind. The question is if Gregory Iron & Hobo Joe, now known as The Homeless Handicapped Connection, are ready to challenge Sex Appeal. Can the underdogs, the common men, the inspirations, topple the vanity and ego that drips from every pour of Sex Appeal? Will Sex Appeal lose the gold they covet so much? PWO Television Title - “AMAZING” N8 MATTSON vs. “OMEGA” AARON DRAVEN Last January when we debuted at the Eastwood Expo Center, “Amazing” N8 defeated Omega for the PWO TV Title, proudly proclaiming that the best wrestler on television in Ohio is from Michigan. N8 has been on a roll since, along with “Big Bear” Ben Boone & their newest lackey Ben Fruith, the “Sons of Michigan” have shown little signs of slowing down. However, Omega Aaron Draven has shown little signs of giving up. Despite being outsized and outnumbered, Omega has made it clear how much the PWO TV Title means to him. He was the first champion, and is dead-set on becoming the next champion as well. Recently, Omega was brutally assaulted by Benjamin Boone in an effort to take him out of the PWO TV Title picture (exclusive footage of which will air THIS Sunday @ 10:00 pm on PWO TV on Sports Time Ohio), yet despite the violent attack, Omega has pressed on and earned a shot at N8 Mattson. Will Omega be 100%? Can N8 Mattson defeat Omega one more time in the same building N8 captured the title or, as Omega would say, will orange be the new gold once again? In addition to these matches, you will see in action top PWO and CWE stars including “M-Dogg 20” Matt Cross, CWE Champion Michael “The Bomber” Façade, “Future of Fashion” Shiima Xion, Louis Lyndon & Flip Kendrick (a.k.a. Aeroform), Krimson, Super Hentai, Marion Fontaine, Ben Fruith, Patrick Hayes, the stars of CHIKARA Pro Wrestling, and more!

PWO - Pro Wrestling Ohio - your televised pro wrestling alternative, with more guts, more desire, and more heart, from a young hungry roster competing to steal the show. Old school meets new age and tradition meets tomorrow, its pro wrestling the way you want it to be! It’s Cleveland-owned, nationally renowned!
PWO TV regularly airs Sunday nights at 10:00 pm (check local listings for pre-emptions and additional replay times) exclusively on Sports Time Ohio, official television home of MLB’s Cleveland Indians. If you don’t get STO, call your cable or satellite provider today and demand it! For more information on channel availability, and on Pro Wrestling Ohio, visit PWO Online at www.pwowrestling.com.
Scheduled airtimes for this week’s episode (all times Eastern Standard):
Sunday night, April 25 - 10:00 pm & 3:30 am
Thursday night, April 29 - 4:00 am
Scheduled line-up -
Non-Title - Johnny Gargano vs. Sex Appeal’s Bobby Sbields
While PWO’s top eight title contenders battle to determine who gets the next shot at Johnny Gargano’s PWO Title, there is still no rest for “The Whole Shebang” as potential contenders come forward angry over not being included in the title tournament. Bobby Shields reigns as one-third of PWO’s Tag Team Champions in Sex Appeal, and is known as “The Body”, “True Talent” and a number of other nicknames. After Bobby Beverly was unsuccessful in claiming PWO gold, and after Sex Appeal’s attempts at ruining the Gargano title match against Gregory Iron, and subsequent handshake of respect afterward, Shields is attempting to take matters into his own hands. Gargano is rusted and weathered, having survived challenge after challenge with the odds continuing to stack against him no matter what he does. Will Bobby Shields pin the PWO Champion and enhance Sex Appeal’s dominance? And how will Gargano’s seemingly deteriorating physical and mental state effect him?
PWO Title Tournament Quarterfinal: “Amazing” N8 Mattson vs. Gregory Iron
So far, Jason Bane and M-Dogg 20 Matt Cross have qualified for the next round in the PWO Title #1 Contender’s Tournament. This week, our third match in the opening round pits the Michigan elitist and reigning PWO TV Champion “Amazing” N8 Mattson against “Handicapped Hero” Gregory Iron. Mattson wants to bring all PWO gold back to his home state, regardless if the man doing it is himself or “Big Bear” Ben Boone. Iron is fresh off of an opportunity at the PWO Title that was marred and tainted thanks to the involvement of Sex Appeal. As a result, Greg has renewed life here to realize his dream. Who will advance to the semifinals and a potential PWO Title opportunity?
“Megastar” Marion Fontaine vs. Hobo Joe
Marion Fontaine is fresh off of both an unsuccessful bid in the PWO #1 Contender’s Title Tournament, and a mysterious backstage attack that we have no knowledge or news on at this time. Fontaine believes these issues go hand in hand, and its all part of PWO’s “plan” to keep Fontaine out of the main event title picture. Fontaine’s frustration grew even further upon finding out he was scheduled to meet the dumpster dweller, Hobo Joe, this week on television. Fontaine is irate over this match, feeling being put in the ring with the dirtiest and most unsanitary member of the roster is a direct slap in the face to him and his abilities. How will Fontaine react? Will he underestimate Hobo Joe and pay for it? And how has will the newfound friendship between Hobo Joe & Gregory Iron impact things?
UPDATE: Benjamin Boone Injures Omega Aaron Draven
Last week on television, a three-way table match between “Omega” Aaron Draven, Matt Justice, and Michael “The Bomber” Façade with the winner receiving a shot at the PWO TV Title was interrupted by the enforcer of the “Sons of Michigan”, Ben Boone. Boone, clearly acting on behalf of TV Champion N8 Mattson, eliminated Omega from action. Draven is the first ever PWO TV champion, but it seems N8 Mattson feels Omega is not deserving of another title shot. Or does he just fear him that much? Either way, it may be a moot point, as our cameras followed Boone & Draven into the locker room area and captured a graphic attack that left Omega motionless. The last time Boone assaulted someone in the locker room area, it resulted in seemingly the end of the career of Virus. Has Ben Boone taken Aaron Draven out of the TV Title picture, and PWO in general, permanently? Tune in this weekend to witness the footage!
Shiima Xion vs. Ben Fruith
He is the “Future of Fashion” and wrestling’s first Filipino male supermodel. Shiima Xion has competed all over the United States, Mexico, and Japan, including a couple cups of coffee in Pro Wrestling Ohio. However, Shiima has made it clear he is back in PWO to stay and has a whole new set of goals an intentions. His path begins against the gullible loveable loser, Ben Fruith, whose contract was recently sold to the Sons of Michigan. Can Fruith score an upset with the “Fruith Roll Up” and impress his new “teammates” or will Shiima Xion give PWO a hostile makeover?
Plus: Bobby Beverly, Super Hentai, and more!
