Kayfabe Commentaries Collection – Kevin Sullivan & The End of WCW
This spellbinding stream takes you inside the last months of the legendary WCW with the man who was given the steering wheel to the out-of-control company. You’ll hear about all the booking decisions, you’ll go inside the meetings, and you’ll go week-by-week with Sullivan as he tries to breathe life into the fading megapower. You will get a never before seen look inside Turner and Time Warner’s power structure and how it crumbled the federation. You’ll experience the endless barricades thrown up by talent and executives alike, and the determination of this head booker who refused to be a ‘fall guy.’
Kayfabe Commentaries Collection – YouShoot with New Jack:
Well, I guess it’s our fault. We said “ask anyhting.” New Jack is in the vaunted YouShoot hotseat and he’s having a blast! No, wait…he is pissed! No, he’s happy again…ugh! Live the highs and lows with us as we bring you another uncensored, unscripted, unapologetic exploitation of the very cocnept of the shoot-style interview. We hand the interview over to you in YouShoot and the show is yours! Also, there’s an awesome bonus feature where New Jack, Mustafa, and Jim Cornetter meet and talk out their Smokey Mountain issues. It was unplanned and unexpected, but it happens before our cameras.
Kayfabe Commentaries Collection – My Side of the Story: Magnum & Nikita:
The Best of Seven series re-examined like never before! Magnum TA and Nikita Koloff sit down and bare their souls separately, answering the exact same questions before being put together to discuss the feud. From Crockett, to McMahon, to Dusty, to each other…these two warriros climb back into the virtual ring to relive a battle of international importance. This is the definitive word on one of wrestling’s great feuds.

Pro Wrestling Mega Spectacular: ONE SHOW – ONE NIGHT
(Pine Bluff, AR) – “Pine Bluff Pandemonium” will feature TNA sensation, Mr. Anderson (formerly known as Mr. Kennedy), against former WWE superstar, D-Lo Brown, managed by TNA megastar, “The Pope D’Angelo Dinero” (formerly known as Elijah Burke).
Mr. Anderson will headline another spectacular night of action brought to you by Traditional Championship Wrestling on Saturday June 12 at the Pine Bluff Convention Center.
Already spewing disparaging remarks about his June 12th foe, Mr. Anderson had this to say, “This event should not be called Pine Bluff Pandemonium BUT Pine Bluff Andersonextravaganza, Misterrrrr Annnn…derrrrrr…ssssson versus that loser, D-Lo Brown!'”
Joining Mr. Anderson and the “Pope” will be “Hacksaw” Jim Duggan and Prince Al Farat in a legends match during the first professional wrestling event to invade Pine Bluff in 8 years!
Before Duggan would share his thoughts about facing Prince Al Farat, he insisted on giving up his standard “HOOOOOOOOOOOO!” Known for charging the ring with a 2 x 4 and an American flag, Duggan proudly added, “That foreigner doesn’t stand a chance against a real American like me, and all the fans will be chanting USA! USA! USA!”
The star-studded wrestling event also includes a TCW tag team title match pitting the current champions, Dark Circle, against Lethal Romance (VH1 Reality star Matt Riviera & TNA Superstar Black Machismo Jay Lethal).
“I am totally focused on winning the TCW tag team championship,” claimed Matt Riviera. The fact that I’m on the same wrestling card with Mr. Anderson and the Pope is just icing on the cake!”
TCW also has one of the hottest female feuds going on anywhere in the country and the fans will see that first hand when Malia Hosaka and Athena go at it in Pine Bluff!
Their last event saw them take their match all over the building but both ladies have promised that June 12th will be a match to settle the score.
On top of that, Traditional Championship Wrestling has the champion, Jeff Jett, versus Alan Steele (with Rich Rude) for the TCW International title plus legend Action Jackson, Wes Robinson and more!
THIS IS AN EVENT WRESTLING FANS ALL OVER THE COUNTRY DO NOT WANT TO MISS…

About Matt Riviera
Professional wrestler Matt Riviera has lived a lifetime in just a few short years.
Ironically, it wasn’t until he exchanged wrestling holds with Megan Hauserman (VH1’s “Rock of Love,” CW’s “Beauty and the Geek”) that the world took notice of his unique ability.
With an estimated net value of more than $5.5 million, Matt was one of 17 cast members vying for the affection of Hauserman on the VH1 reality series “Megan Wants a Millionaire.” It was during this series that Matt demonstrated his unique ability to play to his audience, inspiring and entertaining the VH1 crowd by playing to the very talents he has cultivated for more than five years in the ring.
Movie roles, including serving as a deputy in the horror film “Blood Forest” (2009) soon followed.
Matt Riviera is represented by Eclectic Media Productions PR Firm and their website is at http://mediaproductions.tv
