While WWE legends Tito Santana, Marty Jannetty, and Jim Powers are all slated to make appearences, there is one homegrown IWF star that I’m looking forward to watching, and that is Mr. Casino. I’ve been to quite a few independent shows in my time, but this is first time I’m getting the chance to see someone I grew up with perform in the ring. Mr. Casino and I have known each other since grade school, and although he was trained by IWF, Mr. Casino got his first taste of "in ring action" in my backyard. As did many other teenage boys during WWE’s Attitude Era, Mr. Casino, Alex Archer, and myself participated in backyard wrestling. It definitely wasn’t the prettiest wrestling, or the smartest way to kill time as a kid, but we thought we were awesome. (A note from Alex: We were awesome, damnit!
It is with great pride that I will be sitting front row to watch an old friend follow a dream. He and his tag team partner, All-Star Austin Williams, will be going up against The Master Frank Scoleri and Absolutely Edwin for the IWF Tag Team titles. I’ve been excited for Saturday night since the moment he told me that he’d be wrestling, and I’m going to mark out like never before when he’s announced.

Good luck, Mr. Casino Do PCW proud.
