Journal 1
by Tony Kozina on 1999-06-14
Things have slowed down a lot since the end of
May. I travelled throughout British Columbia, and made
my debut for All Pro Wrestling, as well as wrestling for
a Lucha Libre group in Los Angeles. I shook many hands,
and passed my resume to alot of promoters up and down
the entire west coast.
It's all I can do to help myself in this business. I'm
also grateful to have some pretty fantastic people helping
me along the way. They know who they are, and what they
mean to me... I've spent some well deserved quality time
at my new home. I got all moved in, and completed my music
room too. I even had a BBQ this past Sunday with family,
and friends. Tonight I'm going to a friends house to enjoy
another BBQ, and catch up with him and his family.
Last Friday I wrestled in Tacoma, WA. for Cascade Championship
Wrestling. I came up short against NWA-PNW heavyweight
champion Michelle Starr, but I held my own, and lasted
longer against him than ever before. Saturday night I
wrestled in Hillsboro, Oregon which is only 10 minutes
from where I live. It was a public workout, free to the
fans. It was at Tito's Gym. Tito is a great guy who owns,
and operates a Lucha Libre Wrestling gym. I help him out
when I'm around. He's holding these public workouts to
help the newer wrestlers get used to wrestling in front
of a live crowd. I think it's a fine idea.
I'm getting ready to leave again for two weeks, and perhaps
longer. ECCW management is hard at work trying to book
myself, Moondog Manson, and Michelle Starr all over. We
will be in Winnipeg on June 26th, for CWF/NWA Canada so
ECCW/NWA-PNW commissioner Dave Republic is working to
line up more shows for us to wrestle on. I've spent many
long hours in automobiles the last few months, and this
will be no exception. It will take almost 2 days in the
car to get to Winnipeg. You'd be surprised how tiring
that is, but I'm well rested, and ready to go.
I've been training hard at Tito's Gym, and hope I can
come home with the NWA Canadian Junior Heavyweight title.
I feel very positive both mentally and physically about
this trip. If I am successful, I will begin my campaign
for the NWA World Junior Heavyweight title. Well, that
about does it for now. I'll let you know how everything
was when I return somewhere around the 4th of July. For
those interested, you can always get the immediate scoop
on www.eccw.com, and/or nwa-wrestling.com.

Quotes
from the boys:
Moondog Manson says "After a long hard thought about what I wanted to do, I realized retirement isn't what I wanted. Why would I give these knuckleheads the satisfaction of retirement when I can terrorize them ten fold in the ring.". |
