PWO TV Debut THIS Saturday night at 2 am, Encore Sunday night at 10pm on STO!
On October 20, Pro Wrestling Ohio, perhaps the most talked about new promotion in wrestling today, held its first live event and television taping at the Lakewood Masonic Temple in Lakewood, Ohio just outside Cleveland, and to say it was a success may be an understatement. The event, from the opening bell to the main event, was a fact-paced adrenaline-fueled showcase of what the PWO roster is capable of, complete with a raucous crowd of fans who came out in mass to support the beginning of the PWO era. It was an absolutely electric atmosphere and the best part about it is… it was only the beginning.
For those of you that did not have the opportunity to join us at the live event, and for those who did who can’t wait to re-live the excitement, don’t miss the much-anticipated debut broadcast of PWO on Sports Time Ohio on Saturday night, November 3 at 2:00 am! If you won’t be awake at the late-night hour, you can also catch Pro Wrestling Ohio in prime time, as a special replay of PWO will air this Sunday night, November 4 at 10:00 pm.
Sports Time Ohio is available NATIONWIDE to those with a satellite dish provider, as well as on cable television in over four million homes throughout Ohio and surrounding states. For more information on how to see Sports Time Ohio in your area, see below.
Pro Wrestling Ohio promises to bring you 60 minutes of the most exciting, action packed, entertaining, and unpredictable professional wrestling action you’ve ever seen. PWO will raise the bar like never before in Ohio, and present a product wrestling fans will appreciate and be proud of. The broadcast will be hosted by esteemed play-by-play commentator Joe Dombrowski, alongside controversial color analyst Jamie Scott.
PWO’s DEBUT television broadcast on November 3 features the following:
“M-Dogg 20” Matt Cross vs. “Fabulous” John McChesney
Two of the fastest rising stars in independent wrestling today will meet one-on-one for the glory and recognition of being named the victor in Pro Wrestling Ohio’s first ever main event. One athlete, Matt Cross, has been a staple of professional wrestling in the Cleveland area for years, and after his pay-per-view debut with Ring of Honor just weeks ago, arguably the biggest star it has produced in the modern era. M-Dogg is a physical marvel, a former professional gymnast, who brings a level of agility, balance, and quickness seen nowhere else in professional wrestling. He’s been dubbed the “Innovator of Aerial Insanity”, for not only using, but perfecting, countless high-risk death-defying offensive moves. His rival John McChesney has also been on a meteoric rise, throughout the tri-state area and beyond. The Fabulous One has captured championship gold throughout Ohio, Pennsylvania, and New York, and has made his mark nationally in memorable appearances on WWE Raw, Smackdown, and TNA Impact. M-Dogg 20 and John McChesney will meet one-on-one on PWO’s debut broadcast November 3!
V Squared vs. Cut Throat Crew
The excitement and unpredictability doesn’t stop with the main event, as two of the area’s brightest, fastest, and most breathtaking tag teams will be on display against one another. One team features an established commodity and a wildcard: Former tag champion Virus and his conspicuous tag partner: Virus Grande? Virus Grande is a change from Virus‘ usual Q&A partner Unknown, currently out nursing an injury, but will these two masked marvels be on the same page for their PWO debut? On the other side of the ring, very unorthodox and very unusual, but also very talented… The Cut Throat Crew. Their name really says it all, as these athletes bring a very cutthroat, ruthless, and also very exciting style to the ring. Their intensity and mindset is an attitude not seen since the days of angry bloodthirsty pirates patrolling the high seas. The Cut Throat Crew have used that pirate-esque lifestyle as the basis for their careers, and it’s led to nothing but success. Will this gang of thieves be successful in their PWO debut or will V Squared put an end to their swashbuckling ways?
Johnny Gargano vs. Gregory Iron
On August 5, 2007, Gregory Iron, the most inspirational athlete in Ohio, an athlete who has persevered through personal hardship and physical deformity in the form of cerebral palsy to press on, grow stronger, and follow his dream of being a pro wrestler, almost saw his career and life itself come to an abrupt and ugly end. A severe concussion following a brutal in-ring beating left Iron with bleeding in the brain and a future filled with uncertainty. For over two months, Gregory Iron recovered, trained, and balked at the doctors who told him he had no choice but to retire. PWO’s debut broadcast is Gregory Iron’s grand return to center stage, to do the one thing he’s dedicated his life to achieve… however, his return match pits him against one of the most selfish, thoughtless, and most talented men on the roster, a very dangerous combination. That man is Johnny Gargano. A 20-year-old prodigy who has already accomplished more than most athletes twice his senior, Gargano will no doubt do anything it takes to make his mark and become noticed in PWO, at the expense of Gregory Iron’s well-being, career, or potentially his life. Will Gargano use Iron to make the ultimate statement or can Gregory Iron prove that that which does not kill you only makes you stronger?
PLUS: The PWO debut of the unorthodox Hobo Joe, plus an appearance from Josh Prohibition, and more! Remember, the action gets underway at two special times: PWO hits the airwaves for the first time this Saturday late-night at 2:00 am. However, for those that may not prefer the late-night hour, the show will be rebroadcasted this Sunday night at 10:00 pm. That’s two great opportunities to witness the launch of the most action-packed 60 minutes on television today!
