BIG TIME WRESTLING HAS BEEN REBORN |
||
There
hasn’t been a championship title in over 40 years that has had so much
meaning. You see, in 1964 The Sheik won the U.S.A Title Belt from Johnny
Valentine at Cobo Arena in Detroit, MI in front of over 9,800 people. That
same year, The Sheik started Big Time Wrestling, and the U.S.A. Belt was
the biggest title in the world. The only other belt that meant as much was
the N.W.A. World Championship Title that was held by Harley Race, Dory
Funk Jr., and Terry Funk just to name a few. During the next 25 years, The
Sheik defended the U.S.A. Belt in more than 8 countries, as well as the
United States.
Every top star fought The Sheik tooth and nail for that coveted title.
Only three people won the title just to lose it back to The Sheik. During
the
last 12 years of The Sheik’s title reign, he never lost the belt again and
retired as champ. Now,
after 20 years, Big Time Wrestling has returned with The Sheik's sons
reopening the company under the banner of The All World Wrestling League.
They have been in business since last March and on WWMT TV 3 in Kalamazoo
every Sunday at 11am and WLAJ TV in Lansing every Saturday at 7 pm and at 12
midnight, and will soon be on 44 additional stations in the United States and
international markets. Now the
tradition continues as the AWWL crowns their first champion in Grand
Rapids April 3rd at The Delta Plex. It’s called "THE CROWNING OF A
CHAMPION". This night
brings back the most prestigious belt in professional wrestling. The night
of the event there will be 10 semi final matches with the winners moving
on that night to the championship match inside a 15 foot high steel
cage. Ten top wrestlers from around the country will battle for the gold inside the
cage of steel until there are four men remaining. From that point on it
becomes a free for all and the first man out of cage wins the title.
Here are
just a few names that will battle to get to the cage: former ECW star, “The
Chair Swinging Freak” Balls Mahoney, the nephew of The Sheik, former
star of the ECW, an international star, the human highlight reel, Sabu.
Also competing will be the Milwaukee Crusher, and WCW & WWE former star
Mr. Hughes. From Mexico there
will be Rudo Cortez and Eddie Cruz, and from the dark side, Julian The
Warlock. Also appearing will be Ricky Stryc9 and Gorilla Barone , a 6' 4" 349lb one man wrecking crew...along
with an all star line up of over 25
stars. Even superstars that are not on card will attend including
wrestling reps from Japan and Europe. All
the action starts at 8:00pm Saturday, April 3rd at The Delta Plex,
including debuts of several AWWL rookies.
Starting at 6:15pm the day of the event, all ticket holders can get
an autograph and a picture of their favorite AWWL star at The Delta Plex.
A Special guest referee for the title match will be John Perry a.k.a. THE
HOSS. Get Your Tickets At The Delta Plex Box Office and all Ticket Master
