FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
THE RETURN OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA CHAMPIONSHIP
WRESTLING!
THIS TIME, THEY'RE DOING IT FOR THE FANS!
THE PAST:
In 1997, Dynamite D., Patrick Hernandez,
and Kevin Kleinrock formed Southern California
Championship Wrestling off the heels of the
Slammers Wrestling Federation decision to
cease operations. In 1998, SCCW chose to
end promoting shows on their own and join
adult producer Rob Black in his attempt to
start a professional wrestling company. The
result: XPW. For better or for worse XPW
changed both the Southern California and
overall professional wrestling landscape
during its existence (1999-2003).
THE PRESENT:
As of July 3, 2004, all 3 of the original
members of SCCW had no links left to Rob
Black or XPW. Dynamite D occasionally wrestled
on the independent circuit. Patrick Hernandez
officiated many of the matches in the region.
Kevin Kleinrock had been out of the business
since XPW ceased operations in April of 2003.
If there was one thing that XPW did to the
SoCal wrestling community, it was divide
it. Some fans loved the wild and crazy shows
with big name stars no other organization
was bringing to town. Others absolutely hated
everything XPW stood for and preferred a
show 100% dedicated to pure wrestling without
all the spectacle and "hardcore"
matches.
THE FUTURE:
In September of 2004 and a plan for the future
was hatched. Taking the lessons learned with
the "XPW experience" (both the
good and the bad) the original 3 members
of the SCCW front office have teamed up with
Steve Bryant of SoCalUncensored.com, the
premiere website dedicated to keeping the
fans informed about the local wrestling scene,
to reform SCCW with a single goal in mind:
Doing It For The Fans!
AND WITH THAT IN MIND, WE PROUDLY ANNOUNCE
THE REBIRTH OF SCCW!
Our goal: To create a live wrestling experience
which will cater to every fan in the So Cal
area. These quarterly shows will feature
the best of the best of high flying, technical
strong style, and hardcore!
CURRENTLY PARTICIPATING PROMOTIONS (in alphabetical
order):
Alternative Wrestling Shop (AWS)
New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW- USA)
Pacific Championship Wrestling (PCW)
Pro Wrestling Guerilla (PWG)

Each participating promotion will present
one match on each "SoCal Supercard"
and, in addition to each So Cal promotion's
match, additional "hardcore" wrestling
matches, sanctioned by Kings of Hardcore
ã will take place and be taped for Pay-Per-View!
And, on the very first SCCW show, these hardcore
matches will take place in the form of a
KING OF THE DEATHMATCH TOURNAMENT.
