NWA Midwest presents
Mid American Wrestling
"The Last Dance"
Sun, May 27th 7pm (Night before Memorial Day!) Sports Connection, 3000
S 13TH St, Milwaukee WI
From promoter, Carmine DeSpirito -
On May 27th, 2007 Mid American Wrestling will be holding it's FINAL
event aptly entitled, "The Last Dance".
The decision to end the promotion has been considered for many years.
For sometime, it has seemed inevitable. There are multiple reasons why
I have decided to fold MAW. Economics is one. As with many independent
promotions, attendance has dwindled. It has made it very difficult to
continue financially. The second reason, is that I initially promoted
shows to simply give wrestlers a place to perform. When I started in
1993 other promotions were scarce. Now, there are multiple promotions
in the Milwaukee area.
In 1993, at 23 years old I was a brash, young kid. I wanted to promote
wrestling, turn heads and get people talking. Some would say my
approach to the business was a bit unorthodox. It was intentionally
controversial, but always respectful. Aside from the outrageous
product, I wanted a place where a wrestler could live out their dreams,
regardless of size, age or ability. In turn, I would live out my dreams
as well.
I take a great deal of pride knowing that MAW has helped in producing
some great stars. There are also some of which may never make it to the
national scene, but are very talented in their own right. I'm
extremely proud of all of them. They are all a part of MAW's legacy. I hope every
wrestler that stepped through our doors are proud to say they wrestled
for MAW. I, for one, am proud to have had each and every one of them
wrestle for me.
Next week, I'll attempt to recap the past 13 years, and relive with you
my greatest memories of MAW.
Thank you,
Carmine DeSpirito
Owner/Promoter
