TITO SANTANA HEADING TO ECWA

By Mike Johnson on 3/5/2016 5:24 AM

WWE Hall of Famer in action at ECWA March 19

 

            ECWA is off to a great start in 2016! The action has been fast and fierce and we’re only two events into the new year. With every new year, ECWA looks to sail into uncharted waters and bring our fans something they’ve never seen before. It’s completely fitting that at Spring Battle V on Saturday March 19, 2016 ECWA brings yet another fight that is surely to please both old and new wrestling fans.

 

            We’ve seen our fair share of promising rookies that have came up through the ranks in the company before. Some have turned into the biggest and brightest stars in the wrestling world and some… well… are a little more interesting. That’s the case with newcomer ‘Old School’ Eric Martin. Claiming to be a throwback, a classic, and a bonafide legend of the sport Martin has taken to the mic and voiced his desire to destroy everyone else also claiming to be a legend. His first stop was defeating ECWA and indy legend Meisure Ooh La La. And that’s only fueled the fire behind his somewhat delusional rants including one about being the first to slam Andre the Giant back in 1977.

 

            ECWA management has listened… and listened… and came up with an idea that will surely put this talented rookie to the test AND satisfy wrestling fans everywhere.

 

            They found a legend that is etched in wrestling history. He’s had a storied career dating back to, ironically, 1977. He wrestled at the first 9 WWE Wrestlemania’s, won the 1989 King of the Ring tournament, was a 2 time WWE Intercontinental Champion, and a 2 time WWE Tag Team Champion (once with Ivan Putski and once with Rick Martel as Strike Force). He was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2004.

 

            He trademark ‘Ariba!’ has been yelled by fans for years willing him to victory.

 

            That legend is TITO SANTANA!

 

            You heard that correctly… Tito Santana is the next legend to step foot in an ECWA ring. And he’s the next to step up to the plate to take on ‘Old School’ Eric Martin. If anyone can shut up the brash young rookie it’s a man that still can match him blow for blow, speed for speed!

 

            Needless to say, Eric Martin will have his hands full come March 19.

 

            This is a once in a lifetime opportunity for the ECWA faithful. It’s a one on one match that is easily the biggest main event in years!

 

            Can Tito Santana shut up the loud mouthed rookie and prove that legends like him still have plenty left in the tank?

 

            Or will Eric Martin get the biggest win of his career and prove that he is on his way to becoming a legend himself?

 

            This is can’t miss! Get your tickets now to see a wrestling legend live in person!
