I attended the W.W.A. (World Wrestling Allinace) presents ONE NIGHT ONLY! event in Evansville, IN Saturday Night 8/25/18. The event featured WWE Hall Of Famer The Godfather & Former WWE Tag Team Champion Headbanger Thrasher.

Corey Storm announced that he broke his elbow in a match the night before coming off the top rope with a 450 splash. He will be undergoing surgery  and will be out 6 months.

I got to see Myron Reed (who recently was seen in a match on TV from the tapings at MLW’s Battle Riot show) defeat Ray Waddell to earn a spot in the upcoming The Kentucky Classic Tournament.

The Headbangers was suppose to take on the W.W.A. Tag Team Champions The Perfect Pair (Vanderpool & Alexander Knight) but Headbanger Mosh wasn’t able to be there, so Headbanger Thrasher needed to find another partner. Thrasher recruited WWE Hall of Famer The Godfather to be his partner. The Godfather came out with his Ho’s (strippers from a Evansville strip club), He made a offer to The Perfect Pair, he could fight or one of them could go to the back and enjoy the company of the ladies. Alexander Knight refused the offer but his partner Vanderpool accepted and went to the back with The Godfather and the ladies. Later in the match Vanderpool came back out with lipstick kisses all over his body which caused Knight to be distracted and Thrasher got the pin for the win.

The main event was a Triple Threat Match for the W.W.A. Championship: Dakota France (c) vs Stonewall vs Teddy King – Stonewall won the match to become the new W.W.A. Champion.

The Godfather Officially Announced As A 2016 Inductee Into The WWE Hall of Fame

Monday night on RAW The Godfather was officially announced as a 2016 Inductee into the WWE Hall of Fame.

The Godfather, real name Charles Wright, made a name for himself during WWE’s beloved Attitude Era as an eccentric and charismatic ladies man who always brought with him a train of beautiful women to the ring.”The Godfather’s unique persona and lovely ladies were a key ingredient in giving WWE, and the Attitude Era specifically, a very distinct flavor and feel,” the company said in a statement.”From his colorful outfits, to memorable theme song, entourage of gorgeous ladies and hard-hitting offense, The Godfather never failed to make an impression.”

Wright is best known for his tenure with the World Wrestling Federation throughout the 1990s and early 2000s, where he performed under the ring names Sir Charles, Papa Shango, Kama, Kama Mustafa, The Godfather, and The Goodfather. He also was known as The Soultaker in the United States Wrestling Association in the Memphis Wrestling area.

Wright is a two-time USWA Unified World Heavyweight Champion, a one-time WWE Intercontinental Champion, and a one-time WWE Tag Team Champion (with Bull Buchanan).

Comments The Godfather is the second inductee announced for the Hall of Fame class of 2016 alongside wrestling icon Sting. The two stars, along with all other future Hall of Fame recipients, will be honored April 2 at the American Airlines Center in Dallas during WrestleMania week.
