SJK ISSUES A STATEMENT
TOWARDS HIS OPPONENT ON MAY 24TH!
"May 24th, Rostraver Ice Garden, you
know, Chris Masters, it's gonna be a big night for SJK. I grew up, watching ECW
in that very same building. Here we are, a few years later, and I'm in the
ring. Not only am I in the middle of the ring, I'm going to be in there with
one of the best in the world. Chris Masters, we've never met, but believe me, I
know who you are. Sure, you're bigger than me. Sure, you're stronger than me.
Sure you've battled the best. But you haven't battled me.
When we step into the ring on May
24th, I'm not fooling myself. I'm sure I'll leave the ring a little bruised, a
little battered, a little more sore than when I walked in. But Masters, know
this...We're going to war on MY home turf. You're gonna be in MY city, the Iron
City. You will know me as THE Iron City Superstar...And Hell, I may not be able
to break the MasterLock. But Chris, these are my people, and they leave me no
choice. I must break you."

TROY LORDS
CHALLENGES DEAN RADFORD!
"Balls Hot" Troy Lords and Dean Radford will do battle at
Steel City Wrestlefest! It seems Lords feels a bit resentful
towards his longtime friend Radford after Radford moved to
the Arizona area. Lords even goes as far as insinuating that
Radford's family would be rooting against him in their
first-ever one on one contest. It will be interesting to see
how this match goes down on May 24th at the Rostraver Ice
Garden!

STEEL CITY WRESTLEFEST ANNOUNCED!
Once in a
lifetime, a wrestling supercard comes along that changes
wrestling history: Showdown at Shea, the Brian Pillman
Memorial Show, The War To Settle The Score, The Crockett
Cup, Wrestlemania III, One Night Stand.
Now, Pittsburgh gets its own supercard: Steel City
Wrestlefest! On May 24th at the Rostraver Ice Garden, the
biggest names in wrestling all convene under one roof for
the first time ever. And this time, it's for charity. Steel
City Wrestlefest benefits the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.
Olympic Gold Medalist Kurt Angle will return home to
Pittsburgh to face off with Bubba The Bulldog! The B-94
morning man spent the better part of 2007 calling out Angle,
demanding Angle come face to face with him. Bubba finally
gets his wish, as Angle is coming to Steel City Wrestlefest
with one thing in mind: shutting up Bubba the Bulldog! But
Bubba has promised to have two cornermen with him. What's
the story there? Will the odds stack up against Angle?
If Kurt Angle wasn't enough Pittsburgh wrestling for you,
the "Living Legend" Bruno Sammartino will also be in the
house! What can be said about Sammartino that hasn't been
said before? He is a former 2-time WWWF World Heavyweight
Champion. His first reign began as he defeated the first
champion, "Nature Boy" Buddy Rodgers, at Madison Square
Garden. The reign would last an amazing 8 years, a record
that has yet to be broken. Bruno also set another record:
the first wrestler to hold the WWWF Championship twice,
defeated Stan "The Man" Stasiak, and holding the title for
another 3 years. Bruno has kept his distance from the
wrestling business, only choosing to attend the most special
events. Steel City Wrestlefest is no different!
For the first time ever, "The Masterpiece" Chris Masters
will be taking on the "Iron City Superstar" Sterling James
Keenan! The current 1PW, FNW, NWA East, AIW, Xero
Underground, and Ballpark Brawl Champion SJK is on a hot
streak, collecting title after title. 2008 has been SJK's
year, and a win over the former WWE star would make 2008
even sweeter.
Two top teams will be competing for tag team supremacy on
May 24th. Chris Hamrick & Tracy Smothers, Southern Comfort,
are former IWC, 1PW, and IWA Mid-South Tag Team Champions.
While both men were stars in ECW, Smothers also held the ECW
Tag Team Titles. The HeartThrobs are former OVW Tag Team
Champions and former WWE stars. Romeo Roselli & Antonio "The
Promise" Thomas are coming to Rostraver to prove they're the
best tag team around.
Speaking of tag teams, Shiima Xion & Jason Gory of BabyFace
Fire will be in action on May 24th! The current IWC Tag Team
Champions have put out a challenge to any team willing to
take them on! Who will step up to the plate and take on the
hottest young team in Pittsburgh?
One-half of the former WWE Tag Team Champions MNM, Joey
Mercury, will also be in action on May 24th! Mercury
wrestled in Pittsburgh early in his career as Joey Matthews
for Steel City Wrestling. There's no word on who Mercury
will be taking on, but we'll be sure to keep you posted!
In pre-show action, former NWA East Heavyweight Champion &
IWC Tag Team Champion "The Spotlight" Scottie Gash will be
taking on the leader of the Rebel's Army, former ECW & CZW
star Rockin' Rebel! This will be quite the test for Gash, as
he has never wrestled anybody quite like the Rebel in his
career!
All that plus much much more! Keep checking back to this
website for more updates on this HUGE card!
