Other Upcoming Shows
Saturday night July 16th, NWS returns to the Dunellen, NJ Knights Of Columbus Hall (647 Grove Street, just off Washington Avenue & Route 28) for the 2011 Captain Lou Albano Memorial J-Cup Tag-Team Tournament, with a 7:35pm bell time.
Two years ago, the pro wrestling world lost one of its biggest personalities ever, the late great WWE Hall-of-Fame manager, star of TV, movies, and of course music videos, the one and only Captain Lou Albano. After retiring from the WWE, Captain Lou made many appearances at pro wrestling shows and conventions around the country, but one of his favorite and most frequent stops in the tri-state area was at popular northeast promotion National Pro Wrestling Superstars.
So, when the great Captain Lou passed away, NWS immediately renamed their annual tag-team classic tournament in his memory, the Captain Lou Albano Memorial J-Cup Tag-Team Tournament. Captain Lou made a career in the WWE of managing over a dozen tag-teams to the WWE Tag-Team Titles, and we know he would be pleased to see NWS honoring his memory this way.
On this stellar night, eight of the best tag-teams on the circuit today will compete for the coveted J-Cup trophy in a one-night single elimination tournament. In addition to the already announced NWS Tag-Team Champions The Jersey Shore Jocks (Mike Dennis & Chris D’Andrea) and previous winners Team Supreme (Corvis Fear & Nicky Oceans), NWS is pleased to announce two more teams that are scheduled to compete. NWS Heavyweight Champion “Rampage” Rogers and NWS Hardcore Champion “Corrupted” Corey Havoc will join forces as Team Champion. And a new tag-team will debut with NWS on this special night, a duo known only as The New Kids On The Block.
In addition to the tournament, there will also be a special appearance by a former WWE Tag-Team Champion and Hall-of-Famer Nikolai Volkoff, and northeast wresting standout Steve “Monsta” Mack.
Tickets are only $19 for adults and $17 for kids and seniors.
Saturday night July 23rd, NWS returns to the Island Heights, NJ Fire Company Hall (15 Lake Avenue, just off Route 37, minutes from the Parkway and the Seaside Heights Boardwalk) with a 7:35pm bell time.
And NWS promises to heat up the Jersey Shore even further with a blowout six-man tag-team main event, as former ECW hardcore icon and Jersey Shore native John “Balls” Mahoney will team up with The Atomic Dog & Father Oz to face the formidable trio of “The Love Machine” Nicky Oceans & “Mr. Entertainment” J.D. Smooth & northeast wrestling veteran big man Steve “Monsta” Mack.
There will also be an NWS Heavyweight Title match, a Loser-Gets-A-Haircut Match, grudge matches, and more.
Tickets are only $19 for adults and $17 for kids and seniors.
Tickets for all upcoming shows are available by calling the NWS box office at (732) 888-1704. All major charge cards are accepted, and group rates are available for groups of ten or more.
