Notes from the NWA Worlds Champion Adam Pearce

February started off right with a successful defense against The Stro in Rand, WV last weekend.  Credit to Leonard Sims and everyone at NWA Mountain State for making the match, I was really happy with the 45 minutes we shared the ring together.

Now it's on to Hollywood, CA for NWA Championship Wrestling from Hollywood and a huge tag team match with Austin Aries against Joey Ryan and Scorpio Sky.  Tickets for this big KDOC-TV taping are on sale at SaveFans.com (search 'NWA Wrestling') and will be available at the door.  Best $15 you can spend!

After that the rest of February looks like this for me:

02/12/2011 w/ Austin Aries vs. Joey Ryan/Scorpio Sky - Hollywood, CA
02/18/2011 vs. Aaron Bolo - Molalla, OR
02/19/2011 vs. Aaron Bolo - Salem, OR
02/22/2011 vs. TBA - Matamoros, MX
02/23/2011 vs. TBA - Rio Bravo, MX
02/24/2011 vs. TBA - Roma, TX
02/25/2011 vs. TBA - McAllen, TX
02/27/2011 vs. Carlito Colon - Brownsville, TX

The 22nd through the 27th shall now and forever be known as "The Scrapdaddy 2011 Tex-Mex Tour" and culminates with a big title match against Carlito Colon.  Some of the rumored opponents for me on this tour are awesome, including Colt Cabana and Mil Mascaras, but you never know until you show up at the arena.

If you're anywhere near these towns, come out and support pro wrestling!

And, BUY A T-SHIRT...

NWA North American Champion Sheik to defend against Carlitos Colon

The North American Championship will be on the line on January 7th from the Brownsville Event Center, in Brownsville Texas, when the Sheik will battle against former WWE Superstar Carlito Colon.

The Sheik is no stranger to wrestling Puerto Ricans or wrestling in Puerto Rico for that matter. The Sheik has had a long standing rivalry against another former WWE Wrestler and Puerto Rican Savio Vega. The Sheik actually defended the North American Championship against against Vega while in Puerto Rico in a Death Match. And lets not forget that to become the North American Champion the Sheik defeated Puerto Rican standout Apollo in Florida.

The Former World Wrestling Entertainment Superstar, has remained active since leaving the WWE. Carlitos has made appearances for Lucha Libre USA, along with taking other independent bookings. Carlitos to his home in Puerto Rico fighting in the World Wrestling Council, even becoming the Universal Heavyweight Champion. Carlitos also has made his way to Japan to wrestle for Antonio Inoki's Inoki Genome Federation wrestling Kendo Kashin.

Can Carlitos stand up to the Sheik and win his North American Championship when his fellow Puerto Ricans couldn't or will the reign of the Sheik continue to thwart all rivals? 

IWA Puerto Rico: Savoldi gives his side of the IWA Controversy

Credit to Lucha Libre Online
A rough translation from AltaVista - Babel Fish

With revealers and until surprise declarations, Mario Savoldi offers its version to us of the controversy that has been provoked in the high hierarchy of Internacional Wrestling Association (IWA) during the last weeks. Savoldi denies all the accusations that as much Savio Vega as Miguel Perez have made on their person. Mario accuses so much to Perez as to Mr. Juan Creek (Savio Vega) to commit fraud when taking control of a company (including its materials) that belongs to him. Our interviewed person declares forcefully that the person with the rights of property and equipment is he, according to the agreement that allowed its arrival to the company. Still more, Savoldi expresses that at the moment such thing does not exist as Internacional Wrestling Association (IWA). The IWA let have use when Mario arrives at Puerto Rico and begins to produce free fight under the name of Internacional Wrestling Entertainment (IWE). According to him, the talent and equipment that at the moment Savio and Miguel use belong to him to the IWE. When not existing such thing as the IWA, the billboards and programs (with IWE material, according to Savoldi) they are illegal and they lack the necessary permissions. This alleged illegality is one of the reasons that take to Savoldi to express their intention to take legal action against "the authentic" calls from the IWA. The interview also speaks of the roll that the past played Savoldi in the controversy with the Universal title of WWC in month of January. Finally, Mario mentions the names of the Puerto Rican superstars of IWE that continue working with him. Savoldi mentions names like Ray González, Hiram Túa, Carlitos and Ricky Vega, like the fighters whom it has in mind to present/display them in the United States and Mexico.

My limited understanding of the situation and from the interview I listened to from Lucha Libre Online, it sounds like IWA Puerto Rico is having some real troubles and it looks like there is a lot more going on then what most "news" sites are reporting. Savoldi says he has written agreements, contracts, and recordings stating his case, which has mostly been ignored by other "news" sites. Either way I hope the issues can be resolved and resolved quickly. On a positive note, the good news is that Savoldi is going to bring his talents; Naturals, Hiram Túa, Carlitos, and Ricky Vega to the NWA Wrestling Showcase. As soon as the next tapings.
