Pro Wrestling Resurrection ACS Charity/Free show 4/14/13

Pro Wrestling Resurrection is moving their weekly Friday show to Sundays at 3pm in the Mega Mart in Gainesville. The Mega Mart is a flea market that sells clothes, shoes, toys, and electronics, and PWR has their wrestling arena in the back of the flea market. To celebrate their move to Sunday afternoon, they had a free show. They sold baked goods and raffle tickets to benefit the American Cancer Society. The show was packed, and hopefully it wasn't just because it was free.

PWR did a great job today trying to connect with the audience. The show was fun from start to finish. The opening contest between Jacob Ashworth and Kevin Blue featured a lot of good wrestling. It ended in a time out draw.   Rick Michaels and Supernatural put on a match with a lot of great comedy spots in it. Chris Damian retained his championship and had the entire audience behind him chanting USA.

 The main event featuring the Rock and Roll models against members of the Reckoning was great. I now refer to the Reckoning as "the bronies" mostly because of Zach Daniels and his partner's vibrant colored ring gear. Zack Daniels is Twilight Sparkle, his partner is Rainbow Dash, Rick Michaels is Pinkie Pie (he happened to be wearing pink today), and Jacob Ashworth is Applejake (Applejack). They don't have a Fluttershy or a Rarity.  The main event ended in an all out brawl that left the crowd wanting more.

If PWR can continue with this momentum, they won't have any trouble maintaining a good crowd. I plan on attending again very soon.
