Blue Mountains Pro Wrestling will celebrate its one year anniversary on May 30 at the Blackheath Community Centre with an event titled, New Territory Anniversary.
The first Blue Mountains Pro Wrestling show was held on June 1, 2014 and was called New Territory to symbolise the Blue Mountains as a new region for Australia’s professional wrestling circuit.
“Pro wrestling is such a unique form of entertainment combining sport, athleticism, drama, rock and roll,” said promoter Marek Indyka. It resonated with a wide range of ages and demographics the promoter said, “from kids right through to seniors who remember the glory days of World Championship Wrestling on Channel 9.”.
“Pro wrestling is a live movie, a entertainment show with wide and engaging characters. It’s good versus evil, modern day theatre that offers something for everyone. Come along to one of our shows and I can guarantee you will be entertained.”
Saturday night, May 30, will see the World Heritage championship defended in the main event as champion Robbie Eagles goes up against the returning Bishop Sommers.
“Bishop Sommers is back in the fray as the next challenger,” said Eagles. “He is a different category to Moretti [my last opponent]. He’s been in the game a long time, and knows how to manipulate the ring and his surroundings. These traits are what makes Bishop so dangerous as an opponent.”
Women’s wrestling is on the card and will feature Shazza McKenzie versus Madison Eagles. Also appearing will be Lithgow’s “Full Force” Mat Rogers, “Gladiator” Apollo with his manager —who recently appeared on ABC’s Tattoo Tales — Miss Dodo Divine, tag team wrestling, mask wrestlers and the return of Katoomba’s “Bogan Warrior”, Crofty.
