The Epitome of Excellence
Not sure if this qualifies as Spam so I'm playing it safe in the spamming section. This is a press release for an upcoming show from a Socal indy called The West Coast Wrestling Company. It has been around for about a year and a half. I'm including pertinent links. For anyone that follows the indies and for anyone who resides in the area, this thing is worth the attention.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
"When there is no peril in the fight, there is no glory in the triumph."
-Al Alvarez, English poet, writer, and critic.
Wildomar, CA-While we have seen the worst of man entangled in the worst of situations while facing the worst of consequences in our tenure in the inland empire, on April 24th at Arena Sports we will inevitably bear witness to the biggest double main event in our short history thus far. While one champion will seek to continue proving the legitimacy of his reign against a scorned former champion and The Westcoast Wrestling Company's biggest fan favorite, another man will attempt to end well-underway legacy in a match that will surely be a milestone in both men's careers. On April 24th, The Westcoast Wrestling Company presents Casualties of War II live at Arena Sports and Fitness in Wildomar, CA.

-----March 7, 2009: Kyle Haystacks and Matt Twizted collided in an insanely brutal back-and-forth Westcoast Deathmatch that ended in a draw after both men were unable to answer a ten count. Since that point, both of their careers headed in different directions. Haystacks has fought every man put in front of him in many different kinds of matches and has remained undefeated up to this point. Twizted went on a tear and began winning match after match en route to a title shot at Salute to the Troops.
After coming up short in his bid for the gold, Twizted has been quite hard on himself. While some have said that his passion for what he does has been a questionable element of his gameplan rolling into the next show, those closest have claimed different.
"The look that I saw on Matt's face after our title match was disturbing," quoted Chris Evans after his triple threat match with Twizted and Ric Ellis. Evans continuted, "I mean, the guy has all the tools in his arsenal to succeed, but there's something, something that is holding him back, and when I looked into his eyes after that match I was sincerely hoping that I wasn't going to be the one standing on the opposite side of the ring with him in April."
"I believe that on April 24th, Kyle Haystacks is going to be facing the biggest obstacle of his career," said WCWC Owner Adam Ginsberg. "I've spoken with Matt and he's finally starting to grasp the fact that if he can't put up or shut up at Casualties of War II, his spot on the card may be in jeopardy."
While all the buzz had been surrounding Matt Twizted, Haystacks has been quiet. As usual, his only response to voicemails and e-mails has been simple. "Matt Twizted has been my biggest challenge. After April, our match last year will be recognized as the fluke that it was." Haystacks has been openly critical of the fact that despite his undefeated record, he hasn't been granted a title shot. With this in mind, one can only assume that he plans on taking that aggression out on Twizted in savage fashion.
On April 24th at Casualties of War II, one man's legacy goes on the line against another man's pride. In a rematch 13 months in the making, it will be Haystacks vs. Twizted II in a Westcoast Deathmatch!
Main Event #2
Westcoast Heavyweight Title Match-The Final Rematch!
Ric Ellis (c) vs. Chris Evans

[YOUTUBE]1TVX1u5DX20[/YOUTUBE]
-----May, 2009: Chris Evans defeated Ric Ellis in the semi-final round of the Westcoast Heavyweight Title Tournament.
September, 2009: After defending the title in a ladder match against "The Wildcard" Jameson Stafford in the main event of the One Year Anniversary, Chris Evans stands up to the impromptu challenge of Ric Ellis, eventually losing the title after his injuries cost him the match.
January, 2010: At The Gift & The Curse 2, Chris Evans and Matt Twizted faced off in a match to determine who would wrestle for the title at Salute to the Troops. During the match, Ellis' former manager ran a distraction while Ellis took both men out with a chair, causing a double countout. It was determined that both men would face Ellis in a triple threat match.
February, 2010: At Salute to the Troops, Evans and the crowd in attendance rejoiced as it appeared he had regained the title after a german suplex pinning combination, but referee Christian Rosenberg clarified that it was Evans' shoulders that were down, therefore Ellis walked out with the title. Evans then superkicked Rosenberg.
And now we come to this. The final rematch. Chris Evans will get one more shot to reclaim the coveted Westcoast Heavyweight Title while Ric Ellis will continue to pursue his destiny of becoming the breakout singles star that he has proven he can be. In a match that will surely defy gravity, it will be the high-energy, explosive charisma of Chris Evans taking on the meticulous, dialed-in offense of the Westcoast's determined heavyweight champion in Ric Ellis. The beginning of the double main-event of a lifetime will take place only at Arena Sports on April 24th!
Wildcard Championship Match
"The Wildcard" Jameson Stafford vs. Rudy Luna
[YOUTUBE]xCvrHRGu5m4[/YOUTUBE]
-----Since mid-2009, Jameson Stafford has embarked on a quest to legitimize his Wildcard Title, inviting and taking on all challengers. Stars including Johnny Saovi, Thunderwolf, SoCal Crazy, and even Industry-member Devin Sparks have all made a go for Stafford's title with each coming up short. For Rudy Luna, this match marks an opportunity to re-write history. In June of 2009 at Conflict Resolution, Stafford won his four-way title defense by making Rudy tap out to the Staff Infection. It was well-known that Rudy was legitmately suffering the effects of a recent shoulder injury which left him extremely vulnerable to submission holds. Rudy has sworn that his luck in the company is about to change and it will start on April 24th when he proves that Stafford's win over him last year never should have happened. Will "The Wildcard" be able to continue to prove that the Wildcard Title can indeed become a sanctioned championship or will the seasoned veteran Rudy Luna take over in the title's quest for legitimacy? Furthermore, will there be any recoil stemming from Stafford and Sparks' unfinished business?
Singles Match
Devin Sparks vs. SoCal Crazy
-----After a series of high-profile wins since losing the Westcoast Heavyweight Title, Devin was on top of the world when he was informed that he would get to wrestle his stablemate, Jameson Stafford at Salute to the Troops. However, in what has been argued as both justified and an upset by many, Stafford pinned Sparks to a thunderous reaction in front of his fellow Marines, sending Sparks a notch down on the ladder. While Sparks will be looking to retake his main-event level spot on the card, his opponent will surely be focused on continuing his rise. SoCal Crazy rejoined the WCWC roster with a successful tag team win with partner Chimaera over Violence Unlimited and The Suburban Commandos. At Salute to the Troops, while Devin tasted defeat, SoCal once again tasted victory. These two now prepare to clash as they battle for their futures in the ranks and for possible contendership for the heavyweight title!
Tag Team Match
Violence Unlimited vs. TBA
-----After the Reno Scum pulled out of action, Violence Unlimited was left without opponents. Tyler Bateman and Funny Bone WILL be in action as WCWC officials are working tirelessly to provide a continuation of this years Tag Team WARS!
Singles Match
Johnny Saovi vs. "Pretty" Peter Avalon
-----Lately, the man who brings his "A" game Johnny Saovi, has seen a slump in his Westcoast career. A string of discouraging losses has put Saovi into a position that no wrestler wants to be in: fighting for his spot. That's where Peter Avalon steps in. Avalon, a prominent competitior in other areas of southern California, has made his intentions clear: he is gunning for whoever is at the top. But like any newcomer, Avalon understands that he must start from somewhere, and that somewhere comes in the form of Saovi. Saovi has expressed his desire to bounce back from his slump and promises that on April 24th, Peter Avalon will learn his place. This match will be high-flying and hard-hitting galore, and it will take place live at Arena Sports!
ALSO!
Iowa-based promotion Magnum Pro Wrestling will be extending their territory to encompass part of California and will be using Arena Sports as their first stage of development.
