Pro Wrestling Hybrid’s debut show is now less than two weeks away on Friday the 13th of April, 2007 at the ECPW school in Lake Hiawatha, NJ (87A Nrth Beverwyck Rd, Lake Hiawatha, NJ 07034.) Tickets for this compelling event are only $10 general admission on a first come, first serve basis. Only 320 tickets will be sold for the show, so come early and assure your admission into this ground breaking event. Bell time is 8pm; the doors open at 7:30.
PWH will be a unique blend of hard hitting, in your face pro wrestling action, combined with compelling storytelling that puts a creative emphasis on the entertainment aspect of the sport. This debut show promises to change the landscape of how fans look at the Northeast independent scene forever!!! Matches and talent signed for the event: A Double Main Event: Falls Count Anywhere in the ECPW School: Former WWE Talent Kevin “2 Cocky” Mathews will take on hard-hitting Grim Reefer. These two have promised to bring the house down on 4/13 and we guarantee this one will be worth the price of admission alone.
In a Double Dog Collar Match: Bison Bravado/Low Life Louie vs. The Elm Street Kids Rayza and Danny Yamz Low Life Louie and Bison Bravado have spilled each other’s blood all over the Northeast, leaving a crimson trail all the way to the ECPW school in Lake Hiawatha, NJ. A mutual respect has developed between these two hardcore warriors and on Friday the 13th they will finally unite to bring HARDCORE to a whole new level. Standing in their way is a team that is tailor made for Friday the 13th, The Elm Street Kids.
Other Matches/Talent for 4/13: On Friday the 13th Mike Tobin will be coming to Pro Wrestling Hybrid to debut his NEW in-ring interview show Mike’D uP. Tobin has made it clear to PWH officials that he is bringing Mike’D uP to PWH for one reason and that is to steal the show. The first guest on Mike’D uP will be none other than The Wrestling ZOMBIE! Tobin has promised to find out one way or another, man to man . . . uh, I mean, uh, ZOMBIE exactly what his intentions for PWH are. The question remains, will the ZOMBIE even show up for the interview? And if he does what will he do or say? All these questions and more will be answered on Friday the 13th!!!
The most controversial man in sports entertainment HISTORY Skinhead Ivan has just been added to Pro Wrestling Hybrid’s debut show!!! Skinhead Ivan has said some of the most powerful and down right racist comments EVER to be brought inside the confines of a wrestling ring. Skinhead Ivan has told PWH officials that he is coming to the show on Friday the 13th with a mission, a statement, and the force to spread his way of life by ANY MEANS Necessary. What exactly will Skinhead Ivan have to say in the building that he got his start in? This question and more will be answered in less than two weeks as Pro Wrestling Hybrid makes its debut.
In tag team action: Danny DeManto and El Shoes will team together for the first time ever to take on another team that is also competing for the first time together, Malicious and Delicious (Havok and Joe So Delicious.) DeManto and El Shoes have made it very clear that they are coming to PWH for one reason and that is to have fun. DeManto and El Shoes can get it done in the ring, but on this night, they plan to put on an entertainment clinic while kicking some ass in the process. Standing in their way is the MASSIVE Havok and the self-proclaimed “Ultra Sexy” Joe So Delicious. The action will definitely be heated when these four get inside the squared circle on Friday the 13th.
In a Special Attraction Lucha Libre Rules Tag Team Match: (It is Friday the 13th, rules are meant to be broken, no tags are necessary in this one) Corvis Fear and Nicky Oceans will team together to face Minyon and Santos. Also appearing: Mack Daddy Flexxx Devious Steve “Monsta” Mack “The Napoleanic Sensation” Bandido Jr. Ghanda Rhea Akbar And many more . . .
