6/27- Canadian Wrestling Legend Returns To CWE For 2 Special Nights.

Canadian Wrestling's Elite is very excited to announce that it has locked a deal for the return of Canadian wrestling legend and the original "Hotshot" Johnny Devine to return to CWE action for two special nights on The Nightmare On Elite Street Tour!

The 20 year veteran originally from Winnipeg would train in the infamous Hart Family Dungeon before bursting onto the scene of Stampede Wrestling in the late 90s a part of the company's last big revival as one of the promotion's hottest stars.

It wouldn't take long before the junior heavyweight sensation found himself in TNA as a member of Team Canada and what would be a very lengthy and successful run with the company at the height of the X-Division's popularity with a X-Division Championship on his highly decorated resume.

On top of being one of the most successful stars ever produced in the country of Canada the man now referred to as "The Honey Badger" has his name tied to training successful CWE stars and alumni like "Hotshot" Danny Duggan who he passed the "Hotshot" moniker down to, Stefan Epic, Carter Mason, among many others.

The Stampede Wrestling & TNA Alumni will return to CWE action on Friday, August 18th in Winnipeg, Manitoba and in Thunder Bay, Ontario on Saturday, August 19th in what will be his first appearance in Thunder Bay in over 10 years when he was considered the hottest star in the city for the now defunct No Holds Barred organization.

With Winnipeg and Thunder Bay being two of the hottest wrestling cities on the CWE schedule if not THE hottest things just got a whole lot hotter with one of the greatest all around wrestlers the country has ever produced!
