Signed to Appear for VIP Experience, AND in-ring action:
– Tommy Dreamer! The Innovator Of Violence and ECW Original is seen everywhere from House Of Hardcore to WWE to Lucha Underground, Sirius XM and Impact Wrestling these days and is one of the most
beloved/feared men in wrestling for a reason. Loved by fans, hated by his opponents, Tommy Dreamer is Pro Wrestling.
– The Hurricane Shane Helms! Stand Back! Because the former WWE and WCW
Cruiserweight champion and wrestling renaissance man is coming through! in addition to appearing at this year’s Royal Rumble, Shane defeated The Rock, and blazed trails for cruiserweight and masked wrestlers, invented more moves than most wrestlers know how to do, and is still making moves in Ring Of Honor and all over the wrestling
world!
-Matt Striker! His love of wrestling took him from Bayside, NY to WWE and around the world. It didn’t matter if he was facing John Cena, or being a part of the new ECW, on the mic or in the ring, Matt gives his all to everything he does. His passion and intellect delights your ears and enlightens your mind on Lucha Underground, and when we set sail for greatness on August 18th, you can bet “Your Teacher” will be schooling fools!!!!!
-“The Bad Boy” Joey Janela with The Bad Girl Penelope Ford! Redefining the meaning of Asbury Park Hard Core, Joey Janela can do it all. His groundbreaking series of live events have drawn thousands of people across diverse locations like Orlando, New Orleans, and NYC. And his take no prisoners style and intense dedication to his craft has gotten Joey to the top of Game Changer Wrestling, MLW, Pro Wrestling Guerilla, and everywhere he chooses to compete worldwide. As always, his lovely and dangerous squeeze will be by his side.

“After years of bringing Pro Wrestling such as Dragon’s Gate, Evolve and Chikara to iconic NYC venues such as BB King’s and the Highline Ballroom, it’s been dream of mine to host wrestling on a boat. So stoked that along with the OG Kevin Gill, Rocks Off is finally able to present a set of mat classics on the high seas!” – Jake Szufnarowski, Rocks Off
“I’ve had the pleasure of producing wrestling events at venues as diverse as The Red Rocks Amphitheater, and The Gathering Of The Juggalos! As a Queens, NY native, I’ve experienced the greatest fans in the world, at all the legendary wrestling venues NYC has to offer from the Mad House Of The Extreme to The Manhattan Center/Hammerstein Ballroom, to the One and only Madison Square Garden…now I’m honored to combine all of these experiences into the christening of a new experience with The Rocks Off Wrestling Boat!” – Kevin Gill, Podcaster
