On the 13th, I went down to the NECW event in Framingham, MA for what was their first TV tapings. After hanging around for a while in the locker room, Kevin Kelly asked me to get my referee gear and work for the night. Usually they have one or two other referees, but one is turning into a wrestler. So I ended up refereeing most of the night. Fun event, even though I sprained my left ankle in the first match. It felt just fine that night after I walked it off, but the next day when I got up I couldn’t even stand on it…I’m doing much better now. Thanks to my good friend Chris, who recommended Blue Stuff. Unlike the products IcyHot and Mineral Ice, Blue Stuff doesn’t smell from twenty feet away!

This past Friday the 19th, I worked on the PWF Northeast event in Webster, MA. This was a re-introduction to the Toxic Waltz to determine the new PWF Northeast Tag Team Champions. I’m sure everyone has read how the Toxic Waltz runs, and the rules of it all. I’d have to say it’s an interesting match to say the least. Also this night was a breif ceremony for “Mad Dog” Matt Storm’s retirement with a music video of his years in wrestling.

The next event for me is at Locobazooka. Wrestling Alliance of Mayhem will be putting on a one hour of wrestling there. I’m looking forward to this, even though I already know that it will be filled with people throwing soda bottles and other garbage into the ring. I’m interested in seeing some of the bands there as well…only a few though. So who knows, I might stay for the whole event.

Well, I’ll be back later.
