RCW NEWS & NOTES

Nerdy Boys Win New Tag Team Titles!

The Nerdy Boys, Johnny Ender & Kris Kronie came out victorious in an 8 team tournament to name the newly created River City Wrestling Tag Team Championship February 25th at the Hope of Glory Church on a night that presented an outstanding card of wrestling. The Nerds beat Joseph & Logan Hallowmass, The Natural Athletes Hector Montoya & One Man Mike Dell and the Texas Treats Don Juan & Chris Marvel all in one night to earn the championship. Other teams competing in the Tournament were The Pretty Boys Aguila Negro & Rudy Russo, The Hardbodies Andrew Dalton & J.T. LaMotta, Spiro & Little Chico and the team of Abel COrtez & Slam Shady. Three other matches took place including Quinten Allen vs. Masada, Ikaika vs. Slam Shady and the co-Main Event Heavyweight Champion Hotstuff Hernandez defending against Fast Eddie Vegas in what may be considered the first "Match of the Year" contender thus far in 2006. Congratulations Kris & Johnny!

Next Event Announced

The next River City Wrestling event has been announced for Saturday, March 18, 2006 at the YWCA at 503 Castroville Rd. This is a larger facility than the Hope of Glory Church which has been Standing Room Only since RCW moved in. The February RCW event had 200 paying fans overflowing the room, so it might be a good idea to take advantage of RCW's advance ticket program available through their webpage www.rcw-wrestling.com

Two matches have already been announced for the event. Ikaika will be meeting a mystery opponent selected by Aguila Negro in a Hardcore Streetfight with the stipulation that if Ikaika wins, he will get 5 minutes with Aguila Negro. After the Title match on February 25th, Homeless Hugh Rogue jumped into the ring and assaulted worn-out Champion Hotstuff Hernandez with a steel chair. Rogue then challenged Hernandez to a hardcore match at the next show. Hernandez accepted the match.

RCW Arena on the way

RCW owner Brandon Oliver announced that later this year, the RCW Arena would be opening. No further details were given other than that RCW would continue to run events at the Hope of Glory Church in addition to those at the new location. When announcements are made, they'll be posted here.
