Smith Hart

 

"Stampede Wrestling. It's a name that still sends shivers down my spine. I wrestled, I promoted, I helped set up the damned ring for my father back in the seventies. But I've always watched from the sidelines. I watched my father run things, I watched Vince McMahon try and run things, I watched my brothers Bruce and Ross... so what makes me think I can make Stampede Wrestling successful once more?

 

The truth is, I don't know. The professional wrestling world has changed so much, hell, are we even supposed to call it professional wrestling any more? I don't know if there's still a demand for the type of show we used to sell out arenas promoting. I don't know if people are interested in good honest competition in this day and age, or if the Stampede legacy is enough to convince today's athletes to return my calls!

 

As a good man once said, "build it, and they will come." Well I guess my daddy built it, and the people came. So I'm rebuilding it. Let's see if the people return."

Stampede Wrestling returns This Christmas Eve!

 

That's right! For the first time in over three years, Stampede Wrestling is back. As an early Christmas present to all our young fans, anybody under the age of twelve will receive free admission when accompanied by an adult. Furthermore, "Baby Bulldog" Harry Smith and "Lone Hart" Michael Hart will be on hand to take pictures and sign autographs with anybody who buys tickets in advance of the show.

 

On Christmas Eve we start a 16 man tournament to crown the new Stampede Wrestling Champion with four huge matches scheduled to take place. The first match has just been officially signed and we can exclusively reveal that Al Snow will make the trip up north to face the Wiley Irishman Fit Finlay in what is sure to be a classic match-up.

In an epic tag team title match for the ages, Swiss Superstar Ares teams up with Third Generation Mike Dibiase to take on the father/son tag team of Barry and Dakota Darsow. Barry competed in the WWE as Smash in the tag team Demolition so has a wealth of experience that he hopes to pass on to his son.

Also announced for this amazing night is an exhibition match between two young lions. Canada's own Buck Gunderson, 23 will take on Colby Corino, son of Steve Corino. Colby is the youngest ever Stampede competitor at only 15 years old! Despite his age, Colby has been competing since the age of 10 in Japan.

Four huge matches announced for the return of Stampede Wrestling

 

We promised you four huge matches in the 16 man Stampede Championship Tournament. The first we already know will pit Al Snow against Fit Finlay. Also competing will be Mike Bennett, famous worldwide through his association with RoH, who will be taking on "The Canadian Rebel" StarBuck. These two highly talented individuals will duke it out in the hope of moving one step closer to the prize.

Also in action, "Lone Hart" Michael Hart, of the famous Hart family goes one on one with CHIKARA pro's own "Legitimate" Tim Donst. Donst has vowed to be the man to end the legacy of the Hart name once and for all and move on to claim the Stampede Championship.

And in the final tournament match of the evening, "Magnificent" Mark Jindrak will compete with "Baby Bulldog" Harry Smith in what should be a highly competitive match. Harry Smith of course the son of the legendary British Bulldog Davey Boy Smith, would love nothing more than to hold gold in the promotion his father used to compete in.

Stampede officials have also announced a ten man Wildcard Battle Royale, with the winner receiving the final spot in the 16 man tournament. As of yet the entrants of this match are unknown, with Stampede management thought to be in negotiations with wrestlers from all over the globe. One man who has been confirmed to be involved is young British combatant The young grappler is keen to make a name for himself in northern America and sees entry into the tournament as key to getting noticed.

Also involved will be Canada's Ruffy Silverstein, Ryan Sakoda of Japan, Samoan Matt Anoa'i, Dutchman Adam Polak, Puerto Rican Apollo and big New Zealander MANA.

I see the legacies as to call them (Hart and Smith) as the foundation of a recently revived Stampede. I see them ending up in the final together, but hey who knows where you're going to go. Look forward to the first show!

Thanks for the predictions fellas I appreciate it. With regards to your questions, Michael Hart is the son of Smith Hart, and yes I believe StarBuck has worked in Finland.

 

He actually wrestles in/runs Finlands only wrestling promotion.

Wow thanks for all the great predictions so far guys I really appreciate it. I will try and write up the show tomorrow, (been working on an article for a wrestling website as well, not sure if I'm allowed to promote other websites on here so I'll not say which unless I'm told I can say!)

 

I'm currently torn as whether to write it from a backstage perspective or from a fans perspective. I like both styles really. I may alternate a little bit in the early goings until I find my feet with this.

 

Thanks again, look for the show to be up in the next 24 hours or so.
