AWA PRO Ocean Springs MS March 11th 2023

[Ultimo Gallos]

Finally Ultimo Gallos has returned to the Gulf Coast,and the crowd went mild.....

Nah legit last time I went to the MS gulf coast was a few months after my last living grandparent died.

So when I got offered a chance to ride into a new to me fed on the coast I took it.

AWA Pro has been around 5 1/2 years. Mostly running The AL gulf coast. AWA stands for Alabama Wrestling Alliance. But the night of the show I was at new owners took over. So moving their two towns to Pascagoula and Ocean Springs MS.

Anyways rode the 3 1/2 hours down with one of the guys. Knew he had two matches,cause this was the AWA Pro Mississippi Rumble event. MS Rumble is a royal rumble match winner gets a title shot at the AWA Heavyweight title.

Get there park. Walk in and do the shake hands and intros,luckily I already knew 75% of the people so that was fast.

Go stake out a table for my driver. Get one set up. While he is putting his stuff out for sale I step outside to meet a buddy I know is waiting out front for the doors to open,he wanted some older Memphis on DVD so hooked him up with 2 dvds of that.

Was about to walk in the back door when it opens and the 6 guys from the 6 man tag and the booker step out to take a smoke break and work out the match.

Slipped to the wall ,just stood there watching them plan out some spots while chatting with Jon Paul.Go back in bought a copy of the Wrestleville Vol 1 book off JP. Got him to sign it.

Once doors opened there was about 200 in the bleachers and floor. Loud hot crowd most of the night.

Started off with a DARK MATCH.

Hoodmark Lucha Libre Jr Heavyweight championn Pegasus vs Tony Telesca.



Basically Hoodmark Lucha Libre,not related to ,now,to my #Heelmark lucha libre title,has matches on other feds shows.

Both these guys are green and rookies.

Opening match

/The Charles West/War King vs El Saiko Gato/Charlie Ace/Jerrell The Beast Maxwell with The Brillant One Brandon Turner and John Taylor.

turned out to be the worst kept secret in Ms indie wrestling.... for a long ass time Vladimir Koloff hasn't appeared in AWA Pro. El Saiko Gato has called him out in AWA Pro and many other coastal feds. I didn't catch the entrances but when Koloff came out the crowd went wild but most of them knew he was appearing.

Charles West has been around a long time and over the past 8 or so years gotten really good. War King is a guy that improves every match and hte coastal fans LOVE.

Heels well Gato is a comedy dude that can actually wrestle. Charlie Ace is your normal short snotty young heel that gets beat up all the time. THe Beast Maxwell is the Muscle of the group. Then you got the manager Brandon Turner. Turner aka The Balding One branDUMB TURDner.

Charlie Ace got a stinger in this match and ended up getting pulled from the Rumble in the main event.

Match 2

Hosey Bros (Noah and Brayden Hosey) vs Muddy Waters(Gio Savage and The Judge RJW)

Once I knew I had a way to the show this was the match besides the rumble I wanted to see the most.

Hosey Bros are a rising tag team. Part of the Varsity group that is appearing on feds all over the deep south.

Muddy Waters are a fan favorite tag team that aare suppose to be heels in their AWA Pro debut as a team.So they ccome out with new manager Brilliant one. I boo them. He leaves and screw it I am cheering Muddy Waters.

And the Crowd joined in. And I will give the Hosey bros this they tried their best to get the crowd behind them but the crowd loved Muddy waters.

Match 3
DJ Cyprian defending his AWA Pro Alabama title against Joe Kane

Didn;t film this. DJ is a younger guy that the crowd loves. Joe is early 50s been wrestling 20+ years. One of the best all around talents on the deep south scene.


Match 4-Nightmare Jeremiah vs Brymstone



Nightmare was who I rode down with. We learned not that long ago we both live off the same major highway just 42 miles apart. So since he passes 1.3 miles from my house most shows he offered to let me ride with him.

Now yeea he looks like "ginger Abyss" But he is more the Kevin Steen of the deep south.

Brymstone is a fan fave on the coast. Use to do a MMA gimmick not sure what his gimmick is now.

Match 5

AWA Pro Heavyweight champion Chris Pabst vs The One Man Wolf pack #500 on the PWI 500 in 2008 BARRY LOCO LOBO WOLF

Barry was the first local guy I saw once I moved back in 2007. Been wrestling a long time and is always in good feuds.

Chris Pabst I had seen on video but never live. Crowd loves him. Does a "im a drunk blue collar long haired redneck" gimmick. Which hey it is the MS coast that is gonna be over.

Didn't film this and wish I had Barry made the match. I knew going in that since Barry doesn't work AWA Pro often he wasn't winning their big belt. But there was a few times I wasn;t so sure he was losing.

Main Event MS Rumble part 1

Royal Rumble rules winner gets a title shot

MS Rumble part 2



Was a fun show. I love rumble matches. Indie rumbles are fun. And the booker of AWA picked a nice mixture of vets and rookies for the match.

Buddy that I rode down with was the Kane of this rumble. He is a heel most places. But after he hit the ring and cleared 4 or so dudes the crowd got behind him,might have helped I am loud as f*** and was cheering him.

Anyways after teh show. Jeremiah came back to his table signed a pile of stuff took a pile of pics.

Stacked chairs,sat down drank a can of soda. We packed up went to thank everyone.

We were about halfway to my place,so maybe an hour south of Hammond LA,stopped at a gas station to fuel up,grab drinkss,piss and grab a snack. Buddy gets a text from his wife and we learn time jumps ahead an hour. Which means I left my house at 2pm. Got home a bit after 3am....

Anyways fun show. Gonna go back to AWA pro next month when they run Ocean Springs.
