I met Adolfo about 12 years ago at a convention where he was one of the promoters. He was great to me for many years. He left the convention on his terms, but with unpleasant details. That's his story to tell though.
The better story is where he is now. He is one of the organizers of Squared Circle Expo, a fantastic wrestling convention which will have its third event April 7-8 in Indianapolis. I have written about SCX many times and I will continue to write about it because it is really a fun weekend.
Just walking into the Wyndham Indianapolis West and seeing Adolfo, his wife Carrie, Ed and Heather is like seeing family. That's one of the very cool parts of the convention. There's a strong family feel to the event and that comes from that foursome.
At last year's SCX, I saw an Adolfo who seemed to be more relaxed and having more fun than ever. Representing opposing wrestlers in the main event, Adolfo stunned the crowd (including me) by spearing Ed. It was a textbook spear, worthy of the big stage, despite Ed being considerably bigger than Adolfo. I am sure Adolfo will hold that memory with pride.
SCX has too many wrestlers, vendors and events to list here. It's loaded with legends, Hall of Famers and current stars. I will be "On the Beat" all weekend.
Go to SquaredCircleX.com for more info. Then, buy your tickets and join the fun.
