This is a Premier weekend to be a fan of wrestling in Southern California. Many of you are going to WrestleReunion 6 this weekend, we’d love to hear your thoughts. Could the Battleground Blitz sway you from LAX this weekend? 8 Wrestling Shows this weekend that will coincide with the convention, here’s how it lays out…
WrestleReunion 6
WrestleReunion 6 will be hosted by long time Wrestling Report and newly inductee to the Bill Apter. Last year PWG and Ring of Honor both held live wrestling events at WrestleReunion 5. The VIP Packages have all been sold out; VIP Guests will get to attend “The Celebration Seminar of California,” ArenaChicks Battle in a Mini Show, Live Art of Wrestling Podcast hosted by Colt Cabana with Micky Whipwreck, plus more meet and greets. However there is still one of a kind opportunity, such as the Breakfast With The Champions along with the Dragon Gate USA show Friday the 27th, Pro Wrestling Guerrilla’s RussleMania Sunday the 29th and Pro Wrestling Superstar’s show on Saturday the 28th with all tickets including General Admission to the Convention that day. Also there will be 5 Dollar Wrestling after the Dragon Gate show! Definitely looking for a summary of the weekend for the site along with show reviews and results… if you’d like to share your experiences please send ’em my way to Jay.Cal@socaluncensored.com
Talk NWA
We sure are having a lot of fun on Talk NWA. Last week we played exclusive interviews with NWA Hollywood’s Famous B and David Marquez. This week on the show we’re going to have the NWA National Champion, “The Dark Child” Chance Prophet. The Call in number is (646) 478-3019 and we have a live chat on the show at www.talknwa.com
Battleground Blitz
The yearly event, Battleground Blitz could easily get lost in a weekend when Dragon Gate USA, Pro Wrestling Superstars, and PWG run events back to back to back. Battleground is doing everything in their power to try to lure you away from LAX to Los Alamitos. The Blitz is where BPW’s best young talent get a chance to earn a title shot. A win in this unpredictable and exciting match is a feather in the cap. Four men will start in the ring, and upon elimination of a competitor another will come through the curtain. At no time will there be more than 4 competitors in the ring. The end will come when all competitors have entered and only one man is left standing. Eliminations can come ANY way, be it over the top, pin, submission, or DQ. This match will be volatile and a lot of interesting names are being added to this match– Tito Escondido, Robby Phoenix, Brandon Gatson (making his BPW Debut), Brandon P. Net, Pinky, Seville Albarez, Simon Lotto, Foob Dogg, with more names to be announced.
