Thats all I can think of right now, if I remember more, I'll update this post with them and most likely will describe them a little bit in a blog.
The Promotions
All Pro Wrestling (APW): You've heard of them from Beyond The Mat, their promoter is Roland Alexander, and I REFUSE to work with them, but you might see me mention them from time to time so I might as well post who they are.
BAW: Promotion based out of Oregon, I am a ref for BAW.
BRAWL: Promotion based out of Antioch CA, ran and owned by, Pogo The Clown, Rik Luxary, T-rent, D-Unit, and I think DJ Rizz. I am BRAWL's sound guy.
California Championship Wrestling (CCW): New promotion thats drawing a lot of attention in Norcal. Was doing shows in Pleasanton CA but are now doing shows out of Newman CA, Co-owned by JJ. I am a Ref for CCW.
Devil Moutain Wrestling (DMW): Promotion ran by Helfyre, will be training there soon, currently I'm their Ref.
NAW: Promotion based out of Modesto, CA. Ran by Steele and Money Mike Rayne. I haven't been to one of their shows yet.
Supreme Pro Wrestling (SPW): Based out of Sacramento, I haven't been or have worked one of their shows yet but from what I hear, they're really good. Most of Norcal workers are based from SPW.
WCWA: Promotion where I started trained, at the moment is closed.
Well hopefully that gives you some insight on the wrestlers and the promotions around here and hopefully when you read my blogs I don't have to go through and re-explain who that wrestler or that promotion is. Any questions feel free to ask.
