Former WCW, ECW, TNA, WWE and ROH star Tony Mamaluke wrestled his final match Sat Dec 1, 2012 at East Coast Wrestling Association (ECWA) in Newark, Delaware. In his last match, he defeated 2012 ECWA Super 8 Champion and former ECWA Heavyweight and Mid-Atlantic Champion “Greek God” Papadon. Post match, Mamaluke gave a moving speech, thanked the fans and wrestlers and left his boots in the center of the ring. In the process, Mamaluke endorsed and “passed the torch” to Papadon as the future of the business, as the formerly hated Papadon was giving a rousing ovation.
