I first met wrestler Justin James about 15 years ago at POWW. Unfortunately, his in-ring career was stopped due to injuries. I am not certain of the exact nature and I don't want to speculate.
Recently, at a POWW event, I saw Justin again. Shortly after that, he announced he would be part of the first ever pro wresting event at Rotary Fest in Elk Grove, Illinois.
This will be no average event. Justin is coming out of retirement to team with Elk Grove Mayor Johnson. There will also be many of my old favorites, including Melanie Cruise, Stonewall (aka Jim Goranson), Chris Cairo and more. POWW owner Jimmy Blaze will also be there, as will the Brothers of Funstruction Yabo and Ruffo.
This is going to be a lot of fun and I cannot wait. For more info, follow the Village of Elk Grove on Facebook. Also, check back here for my coverage, including my first interview with James.
