“Buddy” Ed Smith and Bill Apter, the final two inductees of the St. Louis Wrestling Hall of Fame, will be recognized at the East Carondelet Community Center this Saturday, October 17.  Apter will be in attendance to accept his Hall of Fame plaque.

In the main event, Flash Flanagan defends SICW’s belt for the fifth time against former champ Ron Powers.  The two met in August, but the match was disrupted by Brandon Espinosa and Chris Hargas.

World League Wrestling comes home to the Race Wrestling Arena for the first time in over three months on Saturday, October 17.  The main event features a heated team rivalry.

The Black Hand Warriors hold the distinction of the shortest-reigning WLW tag champs ever.  Back in June, the BHB won a tournament for the title but then were attacked by former members of the old Gold Exchange faction: “Superstar” Steve Fender and Dangerous Derek.

Fender redeemed his “anywhere, anytime” title contract and, moments later, the duo was the new champion team.

Every champion will defend his title at the South Broadway Athletic Club on October 10.  With Kevin Lee Davidson and the fearsome Attila Khan as champs, opponents may be in for some “Halloween Nightmares.”

The following is the card so far:

MMWA TV Championship
Attila Khan (c) vs. Brian James

MMWA Tag Team Championship | No Champion’s Advantage
Brandon Espinosa & Ace Hawkins (c) vs. Tommy Dallas & Varik Morgan

Bell at 8.  Tickets are $8.

Jake Dirden and Ricky Cruz are set to battle at the Stratford Bar & Grill in Fenton, Mo. on October 3.  As they are the top two ranked wrestlers in the State (by MWR), the winner will be awarded the Missouri Heavyweight Championship.

MWR’s belt will be defended in every singles match the eventual champion has in Missouri, no matter the promotion.  MWR’s very first Missouri champ will be determined at Dynamo Pro’s event on Saturday.

Read the title announcement and rules

The match sees Jake Dirden make his eighth defense of the Dynamo Pro Championship.  If “The Intelligent Monster” retains, he will break the Dynamo Pro title’s all-time record for most consecutive defenses.

High stakes have been raised in the feud between Sean Vincent and Curtis Wylde.  Something must give in their strap match at the East Carondelet Community Center on September 19.

The South Broadway Athletic Club presents a loaded card September 12.  The 5th annual King of St. Louis Cup (formerly Cable Cup) will be decided in a one-night tournament.  After the first round, half of the field will compete in a final four-way match.

The winner of the Cup will receive a title shot at a time of his choice.  Past winners Brandon Espinosa, Dave Osborne, Brian James, and Da’Marius Jones have all gone on to become heavyweight champions.

Speaking of, the vacant MMWA Heavyweight Title will be decided in a three-way match.

This weekend, Dynamo Pro Wrestling hosts a double-header in the Gateway City.

Brandon Aarons is one of the most popular stars in the Metro Area.  Unbelievably, Aarons has never gotten a shot at the Dynamo Pro Championship.  On September 5 at the Stratford Bar & Grill, Aarons will get his chance against the most fearsome champ the promotion has seen, Jake Dirden.

The most anticipated event in World League Wrestling history is this Saturday, August 29.  Ric Flair and Harley Race will be available for photos and autographs (check HarleyRace.com for specifics).  Note that Troy Buchanan High School will host the event.

The East Carondelet Community Center hosts two unstoppable forces in the main event this Saturday, August 22.  Flash Flanagan makes his third title defense against “The Tokyo Monster” Kahagas.

Kahagas easily defeated former champ Gary Jackson in his SICW singles debut and there very well could be a new champion come Saturday.
