MAY 24: CHAMPIONSHIP CONTENDER MATCH SIGNED!
Over the past several weeks, it’s been heavily rumored behind the scenes that PWO management have decided the time is right to introduce an official PWO Heavyweight Championship and crown a recognized titleholder. Upon hearing the rumors, the first man to claim himself deserving of the championship was the crafty Josh Prohibition. Although conniving and immoral, it is tough to argue Prohibition’s claims, as he boasts a near flawless record in his PWO career. One man who did take exception however, was “Deviant” Michael Hutter, who handed Prohibition his very first PWO pinfall loss at our last live event. Hutter balked at Josh’s claims, and a physical altercation took place behind the scenes, a fracas that will soon be broadcasted on PWO TV on Sports Time Ohio.
As a result of the incident, PWO officials have decided to sign a monumental match in the evolution of PWO. Josh Prohibition will meet the only man to have pinned him, “Deviant” Michael Hutter, live May 24 at PWO’s next television taping at the Masonic Temple in Lakewood, Ohio. However, as an extra added stipulation, the winner of this match will officially qualify for the very first ever PWO Championship match to be held this August at the Plain Dealer Pavilion! Only one of these athletes can move on to the first ever PWO Title match. Who will it be? And will any news be delivered regarding the other participant to be involved in the title match this August? The only way to find out is to join us live in Lakewood on Saturday, May 24!
Doors open at 7 p.m., with a scheduled 7:30 p.m. belltime. This event emanates from the lavish Lakewood Masonic Temple, located at 15300 Detroit Ave. in Lakewood, Ohio. Tickets are only $15 front row, $10 General Admission in advance, $12 GA the day of the show. Tickets are ON SALE NOW at http://www.PWOwrestling.com. This show is proudly sponsored by Westside Metals Corp. and Eastside Metals Corp.
PWO SETS RATINGS RECORD; THANKS ITS FANS
Pro Wrestling Ohio would like to extend its sincerest thanks to all the great PWO fans. Thanks to your support, PWO’s television broadcast on Sports Time Ohio recently achieved its highest television ratings in company history. With the continued support of you, the fans, PWO will continue to grow and evolve and provide the absolute best in professional wrestling.
