DEVIL BHUDAKAHN MEMORIAL SHOW DATE CONFIRMED

Several weeks ago, plans were officially announced for a special tribute show for the late James “Devil Bhudakahn" Fawcett, a well-respected fixture in Western Pennsylvania independent wrestling for nearly a decade, who passed away suddenly and tragically this past July at the age of 31. After much hard work and effort, we can indeed confirm further details on what is sure to be an emotional night of tribute and remembrance.

On Saturday night, March 8, 2008, family, friends, co-workers, pupils, and fans alike will gather together at the McKeesport YMCA, 523 Sinclair St in McKeesport, Pa, to show their love and appreciation for everything that James Fawcett gave to them both in and out of the ring. They’ll express that love and appreciation by doing what they do best, something James Fawcett dedicated much of his life to, and what many of them dedicated their lives to right alongside him, professional wrestling. It will be a night to celebrate the life, the times, and the memories of a truly dedicated and special performer, peer, mentor, and most importantly, friend.

The full card for this special evening will be announced in the coming weeks, as many of the region’s most talented and influential competitors, past and present, have agreed to come together for this very worthy cause. In addition to the in-ring action that evening, fans in attendance will have the chance to take part in several special raffles and auctions throughout the evening, with the opportunity to win a variety of great prizes, including items made exclusively for this event, as well as personalized memorabilia of various top wrestling stars.

Ticket prices are $15 for front row, $10 General Admission. All show and raffle proceeds will go directly toward James Fawcett’s mother Cindy, and his three young daughters, Madeline, Gwendolyn, and Lillian Rose.

We invite you to visit the official MySpace of this special event at www.myspace.com/devilbmemorial and to stay posted for upcoming press releases as further updates on this show are made available. Please be a part of this special night in some form or fashion, as we honor our friend, say “thank you", and “goodbye".
