On the Beat with Resistance Pro's "Practice What You Preach"

At last month's "Practice What You Preach," Resistance Pro put on another great night of wrestling.  We got a handful of interesting interviews, as well.
Eric St. Vaughn and Brady Pierce of Body Magic took home the tag team gold.  We have supported ESV from his debut and this interview was well worth the wait.  Cameos by various RPro people and assorted other fun, make this one of my favorite interviews of all time.
I have to give Special Correspondent Jonathan McMahon credit for nabbing D'Arcy Dixon, former RPro Women's champ.  D'Arcy has been rather elusive, but JMac got her or maybe she got him.  She really had himn squirming and that made this one of my favorite interviews, too.
The talent isn't the only thing of interest, however.  Some of the fans can be just as entertaining.  Such is the case with Dick Griffiths, aka Chain Male.
JMac was back on the beat with an update interview with Mike Bellcaster.  Since our last interview with Bellcaster, has has added "ring announcer" to his resume.  He has also added "dad," and we congratulate him and his lovely wife Nicole (aka the Merchandise Girl).
The next RPro show is "Rust in Peace," a Halloween themed night of fun.  Come out and join the gang on Saturday night.

Bear Down Sunday: Game 5 Carolina Panthers

The Chicago Bears are 2-2 after missing a golden opportunity last wek against the Packers.  This week, they face the Carolina Panthers, who are also 2-2 and coached by Ron Rivera, a beloved former member of the Bears.  The connection I will make today involves one of the greatest wrestlers of all time and one of the Resistance Pro wrestlers I respect the most, both of whom hail from North Carolina.
D'Arcy Dixon has worked incredibly hard at every aspect of wrestling.  She has really developed her look, her in-ring skills and her personality.  I have watched from up close as her character has grown from the leader of her own stable to the RPro Women's champ.  D'Arcy has earned everything she has achieved, including my respect and admiration.
D'Arcy was trained for a bit by Ric Flair, one of the most decorated wrestlers of all time.  You could not ask for anyone better.  I am sure D'Arcy soaked up every bit of knowledge possible.
A perfect example of D'Arcy's growth can be seen in her latest interview with us.  She gave it to our Special Correspondent Jonathan McMahon in what is one of the most interesting interviews I have ever had on the Beat.  D'Arcy was pure gold.  You can watch that interview at On the Beat with D'Arcy Dixon at Resistance Pro's "Practice What You Preach."
D'Arcy has risen up to every challenge at RPro.  She has been on the main event scene for a long time and she shows no signs of slowing down.  Her battles with Mickie Knuckles are some of the best women's wrestling I have seen anywhere.
Hopefully, the Bears will take a page from D'Arcy's book.  Hopefully, they will follow the example that this tough Carolinian has set and use it against the Carolinian NFL team.  If the Bears are anywhere near as tough, focused and dedicated as D'Arcy, they will come out of the game as winners.

On the Beat with R Pro's Positive Outreach Program

Between games at the Kicks for a Cure event last summer, Resistance Pro's C Red talked about starting a Positive Outreach Program.  He had a vision of R Pro reaching out to youngsters.  A few weeks ago, that vision became a reality when we appeared at the Southside Occupational Academy.  Since then, we have held events at Fenger High School and at Neil Armstrong Elementary School.
I have been privileged and proud to have been at each event.  I have seen the grateful students and teachers. I have also seen the proud, humble and emotional members of the R Pro family.
Each event was a wonderful experience.  Believe me, I got far much more than I gave at each event.  I am sure my friends at R Pro all feel similarly.  Rather than me speak for them, I am including interviews from them right after the events.  I love the passion and emotion.
R Pro is doing something special here.  They are making a difference.  They are proving they are not just a another wrestling company.
After you watch the interviews, head over to the R Pro POP (Positive Outreach Program) Facebook page.  Give it a "LIKE" and show R Pro your support for this great cause.
