PP3 RETURNS TO THE RING

Yep... that's what I said too!
That's right, Friday night December 30th, I will step into the ring as a "wrestler" for the first time since 1999. I will be in a six-man tag-team fracas with my son "D.J." and cousin "Marvelous" Marcel Pringle. We will be in Brewton, Alabama at The National Guard Armory, belltime is at 7pm.

The last time I "wrestled" was on May 10, 1999 on MONDAY NIGHT RAW against The Big Show. This particular edition of RAW scored the highest rating in the history of the program up to that time. I am certainly not saying that I had anything to do with the rating, it is just a note of trivia. The rating was an 8.1. That was beat a few months later on September 27, 1999 when Mick Foley did the "This is your life Rock," and scored a 8.4 rating. Those ratings have never been matched since. To put things in perspective, this past Monday night had a 3.5 rating.

If you live in the Brewton area, I look forward to seeing you there. If I live... I will be in Pensacola, Florida on Saturday night at the American Legion Hall.

Be Blessed.

16 years ago tonight...

On this very night in 1991, at The Joe Louis Arena in Detroit, Michigan, I was at The Undertaker's side during The Survivor Series when he beat Hulk Hogan for The World Wrestling Federation Championship. To say that it was one of the many highlights of my career would be an understatement. Courtesy of YOUTUBE, here is one of the promos that lead up to the event.

Friday & Saturday Fight Nights... Another WCCW Death

An old friend of mine, "Angel of Death" Dave Sheldon, passed away this past weekend at his home in Bedford, TX. No other details are available. Sheldon worked for many North American territories during the 1980s and early 1990s including Stampede Wrestling, World Class Championship Wrestling, and Bill Watts's Universal Wrestling Federation as the bodyguard of The Freebirds. Sheldon was also part of the California-based Powerteam USA group, which included Sting, "Ultimate Warrior" Jim Hellwig and Mark Miller. he first started wrestling with Stampede Wrestling with Owen Hart, Brian Pillman, and Chris Benoit. Dave was always a gentleman and a class act. May he rest in the peaceful arms of Our Saving Lord.

The Pringle's are running wild both Friday and Saturday nights this week. Friday night we will be at The National Guard Armory in Brewton, Alabama. FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER myself, my son "D.J.," and cousin "Marvelous" Marcel Pringle will participate in a 6-man tag-team match! You read it right! I will be wrestling for the first time since 1999. It could very well be my last time too! LOL

Then on Saturday evening, I will be in D.J.'s corner at The American Legion Post in Pensacola, Florida. These will be two great independent events, and if you live in the area I am certain you will enjoy them both.

Be Blessed.
