PUSO Wrestling has announced that their pilot show, Unang Tibok, will take place on Saturday night, August 17th beginning at 6pm.
First and foremost, this is a monumental announcement for Pinoy Wrestling in the Philippines. A few weeks ago, 20+ wrestlers wanted to continue pursuing their dream in the squared circle. The previous promotion, that they were involved in, was shut down.
Instead of talking about what led to the end of a promotion, I would prefer to mention the following statement. "When a door closes, another one opens!"
From what this blogger knows, this group showed, and shows, a lot of character. It would have been easy to just shut their dream down. However, as a group, everyone wanted to continue. Ideas and plans began to surface. The result was that there would be a wrestling show that would take place.
A few weeks ago, there was an "invite show" that I mentioned in the last PUSO post. There would be wrestling matches. This blogger did receive an invite. Unfortunately, because of recovering from knee surgery, and an upcoming visit to the Philippines, I wasn't able to attend. This blogger did send a message thanking them for the invite!
There would be a video shown near the end of the evening. From what I learned, it was to show the pinoy wrestling fans that they missed them during the absence and that they want to "live their dream!" From my experiences at past wrestling shows, this group, more than appreciates the interaction and the communication of the fans. Whether it is at a show, a meet and greet, or just on social media, the group responds big time! The name PUSO Wrestling was announced!
Over the past couple of days, there have been Facebook posts regarding sponsorship. Please, if you have a chance, to look at it. If one is interested in getting involved, or know someone, please contact PUSO either by e-mail or Facebook messenger.
When this blogger found out that PUSO Wrestling was going to happen, helping out is paramount right now. Certainly, this tool called a blog is important. I've helped out with a little funding with the previous promotion, as well as the DEXCON events. The hope of seeing a PUSO Wrestling show was important to me. At the same time, there are things like planning, making sure dates were available.
Yes, this blogger is happy that the show will happen while I'm in the Philippines. However, I'm more happy to see 20+ wrestlers be able to fulfill their dream. This blogger is more happy to see the pinoy wrestling fans now have a chance to see their favorite wrestlers that they've seen for the past year (or for that matter 10 years). That is the way I am.
In closing, if there is one thing I'd like to ask our fans who come to the shows.......please support PUSO Wrestling! They do this to fulfill their dreams, and, they do this for us!
Will see all of you on August 17th! Please don't be afraid to say hello.
