Scott D’Amore’s Border City Wrestling promotion will be holding its first live event since D’Amore’s TNA firing in June.
On Monday, the company announced its Fantastic Fathers Annual Father’s Day Charity Extravaganza event, which will be taking place June 15th in Windsor, Ontario.
You can check out the official announcement below:
“Our first show of the 2024 Season is upon us, as we get ready for some big things this year, and we’re starting out at one of our favourite events of the year, Fantastic Fathers Annual Father’s Day Charity Extravaganza at the St. Clair College Sportplex on Saturday, June 15, 2024!
It’s going to be an afternoon show, starting at 2pm, and it’s FREE ADMISSION!
Our special guest is a great friend of BCW, a Detroit hockey legend and 4x Stanley Cup Champion, gone toe-to-toe with Bully Ray, and Leamington’s favourite son, DARREN McCARTY! Is the Mac Daddy going to get in the ring?
Our BCW Can-Am Tag Team Champions Aiden Prince & Reverso are going to put their championship on the line on Father’s Day, but who will be stepping up for the challenge?
Also featuring BCW regulars like the 2024 St. Clair College Alumni of Distinction Award winner Bhupinder Gujjar (TNA Wrestling), Sheldon Jean (TNA Wrestling), Rohit Raju, and Tyler Tirva!
And two new faces will be arriving in Rohan Raja and Aurora Neves! Rohan Raja was part of WWE’s NXT UK brand in 2021 and 2022 and has competed around the world in the independent circuit.
And Aurora Teves is originally from Toronto where she was trained by Santino Marella at BattleArts. She’s reclaiming her spot in the Canadian indies after working for some time in the hard-hitting UK indies with the likes of Pro Wrestling EVE, FutureShock, and TNT Extreme, as well as on mainland Europe. Fans of Women of Wrestling (WOW) may also know her as Kara Kai of the tandem Dojo Defenders with Tara Strike (Tootie Lynn)!”
Dennis Coralluzzo’s footage of NWA tapes have been located and will be made available on the Ultimate Classic Wrestling service.
The streaming service announced on Monday that they’ve located Coralluzzo’s video library, which covers an “under-documented” era of the NWA, and that they will be appearing on UCW in the weeks to come.
You can check out the official announcement below:
“Ladies and Gentlemen, we are super excited to announce, that in partnership with his son Marc, we have located Dennis Coralluzzo’s tapes, and will be presenting them on Ultimate Classic Wrestling!
This absolute treasure trove of footage features the severely under-documented era of the NWA and the title reigns of Chris Candido, Dan The Beast Severn, Naoya Ogawa, and Gary Steele, legendary shows like the 1994 World Title Tournament, The Grand Slams, 4 Annual Eddie Gilbert Memorial Brawls, and the Truckstop Bloodbath, stars of the past, present, and future, and so much more.
When I was a teenager, Dennis’s shows were the absolute pinnacle of indy wrestling. And it can be said without a hint of exaggeration that but for Dennis Corraluzzo, the NWA would have ceased to exist when Crockett sold to Turner.
Aside from the shows that had been previously released (some 25 years ago…) we are also hard at working creating new releases of classic events with an all-star cast of Commentators like Brian Webster, Joe Dombrowski, Chris Gullo, and Ray Odyssey.
You should start seeing them on UCW in the coming weeks.

And finally, Willow Nightingale visited The Wrestling Club on Monday.
The Wrestling Club leader Victor Taylor Perry took to Twitter to share a video of the surprise appearance. He captioned the video with,
“The Wrestling Club had a special guest stop by today to surprise them during their lunch and recess.
Thank you @willowwrestles for coming by and hanging with TWC.
Your impact knows no bounds.
We love and appreciate you so much.”
Nightingale also replied to the video, writing:
“I’ve always wished there was something like TWC when I was growing up and I already knew it was special, but my goodness… that visit was something else”
