Cleveland All Pro Wrestling News: May 17, 2007

MORE MATCHES SIGNED FOR NEXT CAPW LIVE EVENT: SUNDAY, JUNE 3!

Cleveland All-Pro Wrestling returns to the famed Turner’s Hall, located at 7325 Guthrie Ave. in Cleveland, on Sunday afternoon June 3 with “A Hot Summer Night“. Doors open at 2 p.m. for our belltime of 3 p.m. This WILL be a taping for CAPW TV on Sports Time Ohio, so bring your signs, banners, and enthusiasm, and be prepared to have your image available in nearly 3 million homes in the state of Ohio, and nationwide on select systems. Tickets are available in advance at any of our ticket outlets, and also at the door the afternoon of the event. Get ready for three solid hours of the best professional wrestling in the area: Cleveland All-Pro Wrestling.

Just added to the card this week:

CAPW Jr. Heavyweight Title Match: Super Hentai vs. Shiima XionSuper Hentai solidified his CAPW singles career at our last live event when he defeated Zach Gowen to capture his first singles gold in Cleveland, adding this accomplishment to an extensive list of other titles he’s captured around the world. However, Hentai finds himself the central focus of an extremely competitive division. The first of many deserving challengers is “The Future of Fashion” Shiima Xion, who certainly goes back a long way with Hentai. Not only were Hentai & Shiima a short-lived tag team combination here in CAPW before choosing to pursue careers in the singles ranks, but Hentai also was instrumental in Shiima Xion’s training to become a professional wrestler some years back. It’s a case of teacher vs. student on June 3 as Xion attempts to surpass his former mentor and become Jr. Heavyweight champion.

Grudge Match: JT Lightning vs. Marion FontaineJT Lightning & Da Munchies have spent the past several months claiming to be the “World Six-Man Tag Team Champions” despite the fact that particular title has been defunct for the past several years. To prove their point, they’ve presented a series of trophies, medals, and alleged accomplishments that are irrational and impossible to say the least. While you often can’t take what comes out of these men’s mouths seriously, one thing that must always be taken seriously is their ability and track record inside the ring. Marion Fontaine learned that lesson the hard way, as JT & Da Munchies absolutely obliterated him with countless knife-edge chops, turning Fontaine’s chest several different shades of red and purple. A rematch has been signed, but will the “Mega Star” be able to fend off JT’s uncontrolled aggression or will one-third of the mythical tag team champions make another statement?

Da Munchies vs. Shawn Blaze & Ponyboy TJ DynamiteDa Munchies, Dick Trimmins & Too Cool Abdul, were also very instrumental in the massacre laid into Marion Fontaine, and Fontaine’s partners in Mega Sexy, “Simply Sexy” Shawn Blaze, and the team’s newest recruit Ponyboy TJ Dynamite certainly have not forgotten it. Blaze & Dynamite attempt to extract revenge for their partner in this tag team encounter. Four men who certainly are not well-liked by CAPW fans, but have quite a bit to fight for as far as pride is concerned.

Jessica Havok’s Open ChallengeIn just a short time, Jessica Havok has already proven herself to be the most dominant physically imposing female to ever enter CAPW, so much so that JT Lightning was quick to sign her as his personal bodyguard. Havok has made quick work of just about everyone she’s been in the ring with, male and female, culminating at our past show when she defeated FOUR opponents in a row, before finally succumbing to a hellacious Gore from the “War Machine” Rhino. However, not even Rhino can keep Havok down as she is back and seeking more competition. Who will step up to the plate this month? Our sources hope to have more information in the upcoming weeks.

In addition to our main event, already signed:

CAPW Heavyweight Title: Tracy Smothers vs. The Blue MeanieIt’s a feud that has been ongoing for ten years and counting, and shows no signs of letting up. The Smothers/Meanie bad blood began back in the original ECW, with Smothers representing the Full Blooded Italians (FBI) and Meanie representing the Blue World Order (bWo). After a series of unforgettable wrestling contests, as well as dance-offs, nothing was settled. The rivalry was re-ignited two years ago after a falling out between the two stemming from the aftermath of the controversial first WWE ECW One Night Stand pay-per-view. They’ve battled each other all over the US and into Europe, but never have they met for a major singles title, but June 3 in Cleveland the stakes are raised as Meanie attempts to dance his way to CAPW gold, and Smothers attempts to capture any momentum he can leading into a potential ominous encounter with Bane.

B.E.T. vs. The ClashTyrone Evans and Josh Emanuel have formed a very formidable and intimidating duo to add to the already stacked CAPW Tag Team Division, calling themselves B.E.T. While we’re still unsure what exactly that stands for, their track record in the ring is something that cannot be mistaken. However, B.E.T. did not count on seeing a couple of old rivals come onto the CAPW scene shortly afterward: The team of Brian Bender & Ernie Ballz, collectively known as The Clash, followed B.E.T. into CAPW and were quick to make a challenge. These teams have met several times throughout Ohio in the past, but on June 3 their feud gets taken to the next level as it will be on display in CAPW for the very first time.

Many more matches to be announced in the coming weeks!

CAPW BIGGEST SHOW EVER COMING AUGUST 5!Traditionally, CAPW provides its biggest and best live event of the calendar year during the summer as Cleveland All-Pro Wrestling celebrates its anniversary in style. This year, however, CAPW takes it one step farther. The announcement was made official this past Sunday that on Sunday, August 5, Cleveland All-Pro Wrestling makes its debut in the Plain Dealer Pavilion, located on 2014 Sycamore Street to celebrate our anniversary with “A Night of Legends”. It’ll be the largest, most star-studded happening in Cleveland All-Pro history! Come join the record-breaking crowd that will be on hand to witness all the biggest, best, and brightest stars from wrestling’s past, present, and future.

Following a wild altercation at our last live event, the evening’s main event has already been penciled in. Should Tracy Smothers escape our June 3rd live event still CAPW Heavyweight Champion, he will finally step into the ring one-on-one against the 6’8 300+ pound unstoppable Jason Bane. Smothers has been ducking Bane’s challenge and screwing him at every opportunity, culminating at our last event when Smothers was directly responsible for Bane losing his Television Title to Conrad Kennedy III, shattering Bane’s hopes of unifying CAPW’s two top singles titles for the second time. Now, Bane will face Smothers one-on-one, and there will be nowhere for Tracy to hide, no shortcut for him to take… because the match takes place inside a 15 foot high STEEL CAGE!

Much much more will be revealed about CAPW’s Plain Dealer Pavilion debut set for August 5th. Stay posted to our CAPW Newslines as well as CAPW.net for all the updated information!
