Baltimore, MD July 12, 2015- Maryland Championship Wrestling (MCW) presents its premier event of the year on July 18, 2015; The Shane Shamrock Memorial Cup.

Brian Stephen Howser known professionally as Shane Shamrock died tragically in 1998 and at the time was the reigning MCW Light Heavyweight Champion. Shamrock was also one of the core members of the MCW Roster and a close friend to everyone in the company. The decision was made to retire the Light Heavyweight Title and name Shane Shamrock “The Lifetime MCW Light Heavyweight Champion”. The following year The Inaugural Shane Shamrock Memorial Cup was held to honor his memory.

The way that the tournament is structured is that five qualifying matches will take place early in the evening. The winners of those five matches will then meet last years winner Drolix in a 6 way elimination match to crown the Shane Shamrock Memorial Cup Champion. In the tournament’s 15 year history no champion has ever repeated the following year. However Christian York has won the tournament on 3 different occasions in 1998, 2003 and again in 2010.
