            Former WWE Tag Team Champion Scott Taylor will be in action on October 4.  Scott Taylor started off in the WWE around 1993.  It was not until Scott Taylor began to team with Brian Christopher did his WWE career begin to blossom.  Scott Taylor and Brian Christopher began teaming together at WrestleMania 14, which was held at the Fleet Center in Boston.  The team of Taylor and Christopher called themselves “Too Much”.  “Too Much” would feud with Al Snow and The Hard Boys.  In late 1999, “Too Much” would get put on hold for several months, when Brian Christopher needed surgery on his torn ACL.  Upon their return, they had a new hip-hop look and new names.  Scott Taylor would become Scotty Too Hotty.  Brian Christopher would become Grandmaster Sexay.  The new team would be “Too Cool”.  “Too Cool” would begin to feud with Degeneration-X (Triple H, Billy Gunn, Road Dogg and X-Pac) and the Radicalz (Eddie Guerrero, Dean Malenko, Perry Saturn, and Chris Benoit).

            2000 would be a very success full year for Scotty Too Hotty.  He would defeat Dean Malenko for the WWE Light Heavyweight Title and would win the WWE Tag Team Titles with Grandmaster Sexay.  Between 2001 and 2003 Scotty would jump around teaming with Albert and wrestling alone.  In 2003, Scotty would once again team with Rikishi and win the WWE Tag Team Titles.  Scotty and Rikishi would lose the titles the titles 3 months later to Rico and Charlie Haas.  Scotty Too Hotty would continue to wrestle for the WWE on Smackdown and Velocity until May of 2007 when he left the WWE.

            Since Scotty return to the local wrestling seen he has been on a tear.  On Saturday night, October 4 Scotty wants to continue his winning ways as he goes one on one with Hingham’s own Firefighter Lt. Chris Dinapoli.  Chris Dinapoli is a long time firefighter in Hingham, MA.  Lt. Dinapoli has recently returned to the wrestling ring.  He took a 16 year leave from wrestling and once again working his way up the ranks in Eastern Pro Wrestling.  The match with Scotty Too Hotty is his biggest match since returning to the ring

            The Eastern Pro Wrestling Heavyweight Title will be on the line is a special last man standing match when champion Kongo puts his title on the line against Dan Freitas.  Freitas (with his manager Amber Rae) have been chasing the EPW Title all over New England; however Kongo always seems to leave with the title.  Kongo always has his keeper, Marshall McNeil, with him at ringside and McNeil has no problem using his Polo stick to make sure his man comes out on top.  Will Freitas finally win the title he has been chasing, or will Kongo once again remain Champion?  Only way to find out is to be at the Hingham High School.

            Two other titles will be on the line at the Hingham High School.  EPW Tag Team Champions The Coolers (Johnny Idol and Nick Steel) defend against the young team of Ray Diamond and Shaya Shabo.  EPW Television Champion Rocco Abruzzi will put his title on the line against Nick Westgate.

            Also appearing will be the World Famous Wrestling Clown Doink, Mistress Belmont, Weymouth’s own Sid Momentum, and many more great stars from Eastern Pro Wrestling.
