A New Stable In Town (Part One)

Over the years, pro wrestling has had something called "stables".  For those new to pro wrestling, a stable is a group of one or more wrestlers that have a manager or an advisor.

 

Some of the first stables included groups led by the late and great Bobby Heenan of AWA and the WWF.  Heenan had some greats in his stable such as Nick Bockwinkel, Ray Stevens, Andre The Giant, Mr. Perfect, Paul Orndorff and even Ric Flair!  In a match, you would never know what Heenan was up to.  At times, he would even wrestle as part of a tag team and the fans would love it whether he got his butt kicked or assist in a victory.

 

Part One of a new stable is about Filipino Pro Wrestling in the Philippines.  For those who haven't been to their shows ever or recently, a new stable has been formed.

 

Jason Rex, formerly another wrestler (Brad Cruz) in the days of Philippine Wrestling Revolution, has returned to the ring, and in a huge way.  Advised and/or managed by LegenDarius, he is a force to be reckoned with.

 

Whether the FPW wrestling fans like thia duo or not, this is a fresh approach and a feel good story for pro wrestling.  In fact, you could say that this story is very similar to Darth Vader and Emperor Palpatine from the Star Wars series!

 

After Rex's latest win over Dax Xaviera at the September FPW Astig show, this blogger has been told that the fans received an introduction of sorts.  And it didn't come soon enough for those watching at Baked Studios.  

LegenDarius got on the mic following the victory.  The fans were told that this duo has not only arrived, but will create punishment.  LegenDarius scolded Dax Xaviera for overlooking the two before, during, and after the match!  The monologue continued until AB3, a FPW wrestler came out from the locker room.  LegenDarius and the undefeated, Jason Rex left the ring and returned to the locker room.

 

It will be interesting what the future holds for both Jason Rex and LegenDarius.  This wrestling blogger senses that it will be a bright future for them and for Filipino Pro Wrestling.
