Ultimately, the collective aim of those involved is to generate public awareness of what professional wrestling actually is. It is a pre-determined sport; a unique blend of combat and theatre, blurring the line between reality and fiction. Wrestlers are sportsman, they are actors, they are stuntmen and above all they are athletes. Why then does the average Joe sneer at the slightest hint of the word? Of course, pro wrestling has its problems, but what industry doesn’t? The music industry is plagued with drugs and alcohol, the fashion industry has its coveted "size zero" and today’s supermarkets seem to have more in common with science laboratories than with farms. The world of pro wrestling is a secretive one and despite its tarnished reputation, there is an admirable side to which, the man in the street is completely oblivious. Hard Knocks lifts the curtain on the show, and sheds a light on a sport suffering it’s darkest days, analysing everything from broken bones to steroid use, choreography to promos, to the impracticalities of depending on wrestling for financial security. This film will shock and astound, leaving you with a new found respect for professional wrestling and the men and women who dedicate their lives and bodies to this obscure art form.

PWO WRESTLELUTION 2 MAIN EVENT SIGNED
Confirmed for PWO Wrestlelution 2 – PWO Championship: Josh Prohibitionn vs. Johnny Gargano
This past weekend on Pro Wrestling Ohio TV, exclusively on Sports Time Ohio, a situation unfolded that many thought we would never see. An irreparable rift has been formed, and the two men that comprised inarguably PWO’s most unstoppable duo are now at odds. It is a true coming of age on Sunday, August 9 when Josh Prohibition must defend the PWO Championship against the very man who stood at his side for nearly three years – Johnny Gargano.
Prohibition & Gargano aligned shortly before the formation of Pro Wrestling Ohio, gaining a number of victories together in tag team action – most notably a win over The Motor City Machine Guns, Chris Sabin & Alex Shelley. With the selfish and opportunistic Prohibition and the immature, cocky, and overbearing Gargano, the two created an alliance that few could stomach – but due to Prohibition’s world-renowned experience and Gargano’s beyond-his-years ring savvy – even fewer could defeat.
