YOU WANT IT – YOU’VE GOT IT – WE’RE KICKIN’ UP A RIOT:
XPW X – THE 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY SPECTACULAR
After last year’s successful XPW Cold Day In Hell reunion spectacular fans and XPW wrestlers alike were all asking one question, “Will there be a 10 year anniversary show?”
After months of speculation, debate, and campaigning, the demand of both the fans and the wrestlers and staff of the original XPW was just too much and there was only one conclusion to be reached: The Show Must Go On!
And, so it is with great pride that the phenomenon known as XPW, which was officially born on Saturday, July 31, 1999 at the Reseda Country Club, in Reseda, CA, and which would grow into being one of the most controversial and entertaining wrestling upstarts of all time, will celebrate it’s 10 year anniversary on Saturday afternoon, August 22, 2009.
From the Reseda Country Club and Birmingham High School in the San Fernando Valley, to The Palace in Hollywood, to the Los Angeles Sports Arena and The Olympic Auditorium in Downtown, to the Pico Rivera Sports Arena, XPW was always about California and LA. It was part of the reason that the rebel group pulled off one of the most talked about publicity stunts of all time when they “invaded” ECW’s Heatwave PPV live from the very same Olympic Auditorium which would become their home.
Now, as former XPW VP Mike Hartsfield prepares to oversee what will no doubt be the most sentimental show in XPW history, he lets fans in on his philosophy for XPW X. “If Cold Day In Hell proved one thing to me, it was that the fans in LA were always the most loyal and hardcore XPW fans and that it really was the ‘local boys’ the ones from SoCal and NorCal who were the heart and soul of the company. Of course we owed a debt of gratitude to the stars who would head to XPW after leaving ECW or any other promotion, but XPW was carried not on the backs of those men, but on the guys who came up through the ranks and who gave their all to build the company. So, it is those fans and those wrestlers form whom I wanted to be sure this show could happen.”
“Therefore, on SummerSlam weekend here in Los Angeles, XPW will present XPW X: The 10 Year Anniversary Spectacular live from The Arena in the heart of Hollywood, CA, just a few blocks away from Hollywood and Highland live on Saturday, August 22, at 2 PM. It’s going to be a great afternoon of authentic XPW action!”
While XPW’s Cold Day In Hell drew well over 1,500 fans, The Arena has a capacity of just over 800, so a sell-out is expected. “The venue is just tremendous,” Hartsfield continued. “While normally a 21 and over venue, they are allowing us to have the event be all-ages. The floor will be 21+ with multiple full bars and the upper level will be all-ages. The venue has a full restaurant as well so food and non-alcoholic beverages will be available wherever fans are seated.”
“And we want it to be an event everyone can attend, so we are purposely making the entire building GA seating and keeping ticket prices low at $25. Plus, we will be offering a 5 pack of tickets for $100, so fans who buy together can save $5 on each ticket.”
Already scheduled to appear are XPW King of the Deathmatch “The Human Horror Film” Supreme, Homeless Jimmy, Luke Hawx, former XPW World Champion “White Trash” Johnny Webb, “The Hardcore Homo” Angel, and Scorpio Sky. More talent will be announced next week.
Tickets will go on sale on Thursday morning, July 9, at 10 AM PT via GrooveTickets.com.
The Arena is located at 6655 Santa Monica Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90038.
The event will also be broadcast live on the internet via iClips.net and released on DVD from Big Vision Entertainment (BVDVD.com) and Xtreme Entertainment Group (XEGDVD.com).
The event is sponsored by New Age Records, Loyal Clothing (RockLoyal.com), USA Printing (USA-Printing.com), and Suspension Clothing.
