The United Wrestling Coalition returns to Kelly's Banquet
Hall in Wrightstown, New Jersey on March 17—Celebrate St.
Patrick's Day and the UWC's 22nd Anniversary Event featuring
the 2018 UWC Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony! Fans of all
ages are encouraged to wear green for a chance to win
prizes, and the bar will be open for those age 21 and over!
Doors open at 6:30 with a 7:00 p.m. Bell time, and admission
is $10.
Last year, Referee George Pinaha, The Orphan, Billy
Lassiter, and The Ripper were the first four inductees into
the UWC Hall of Fame. On March 17, they will be joined by
three more inductees. Who will be in the UWC Hall of Fame
Class of 2018?
Trained by the late “Iron” Mike Sharpe, the first inductee
into the UWC Hall of Fame Class of 2018 is none other than
Mark “The Cannon” Melaccio! Following numerous WWF
television appearances in the mid-90s, Cannon made his way
to the United Wrestling Coalition. On December 5, 1998, he
won a battle royal to win the vacant UWC Heavyweight
Championship and enjoyed a 161-day title reign. Melaccio
eventually transitioned to a behind-the-scenes position as
Production Manager, a role he held from 1999-2001 when he
left the company. Mark Melaccio has made several return
appearances over the years, including a Legends Match in
2016, and most recently, a bout with Textbook Philly Madison
last March.
The second inductee into the UWC Hall of Fame Class of 2018
is the one and only Joe Rules! A fixture on the indy
wrestling scene for over a quarter of a century, this former
ECW ring crew member trained by JT Smith has won
championships in the JWA, PCW, ECPW, and JAPW, among others.
Joe Rules was rated #500 in the 1997 PWI 500, earning
himself the name "Mr. 500." He was even a guest on the Jerry
Springer Show! But Joe Rules found his greatest success in
the United Wrestling Coalition, where he was often
accompanied by Luxurious Lynne, Patricia M. Steinman, or Liz
Savage. Not only is Joe Rules a former UWC Heavyweight
Champion, he's also held the North American Title and the
United States Title. In addition, Joe Rules has been a
manager, commentator, and commissioner. Having retired from
the ring in 2013, Joe Rules currently serves as the
honorable UWC President.
The third and final inductee into this year's UWC Hall of
Fame Class is Silly Billy! Known for his entrance music,
various hats, and childlike wonder, Silly Billy is arguably
the most popular wrestler in UWC history. This colorful
character is one of only five men to have held every title
the United Wrestling Coalition currently offers, including
two reigns as Heavyweight Champion. He also won The Browns
Mills Rumble in 2014. Due to health issues, Silly Billy hung
up the tights in 2016, defeating “The One” Geoffrey Bravo
for the United States Championship in his final bout. Now,
as “Serious William,” he is the voice of the UWC, serving as
ring announcer at our events and continuing to entertain the
fans.
Please join us March 17 at Kelly's Banquet Hall in
Wrightstown, New Jersey as we welcome Mark “The Cannon”
Melaccio, “Mr. 500” Joe Rules, and Silly Billy to the United
Wrestling Coalition Hall of Fame Class of 2018!
The UWC Heavyweight Title will be on the line at our 22nd
Anniversary Event as T.G.I. Fredo Majors, accompanied by his
Fraternity brother “Brilliant” Bobby Banks, defends his
championship against one half of the Tag Team Champions, The
“Lost Boy” Jay Kirby! Kirby's best friend “American Muscle”
Nate Mustang is currently in exile in Iceland after losing a
Loser Leaves Town Match to Fredo Majors in December, and Jay
Kirby plans to take the belt and extract a measure of
revenge on behalf of Mustang! This is one match you DO NOT
want to miss!
Tag Team Champion Spectrum, originally scheduled to face Ace
Matthews of The Fraternity, will instead take on The
“Assassin” Ace Marxman on March 17 in Wrightstown! “I don't
care if it's Ace Matthews, Ace Marxman, Ace Darling, or Ace
Cowboy Bob Orton,” said a fired-up Spectrum. “When do I get
a Heavyweight Title shot?” Spectrum had best not
underestimate Ace Marxman, however, or he may find himself
going home with the loser's share of the purse.
Definitely Donnie, who has reigned as champion since
defeating Jimmy Pipes in September in the UWC's 1000th
match, will defend the United States Title against his
toughest challenger to date: “The One” Geoffrey Bravo! Bravo
has held every championship belt that UWC has to offer, and
on St. Patrick's Day at Kelly's, he will attempt to become a
three-time US titleholder!
On March 17, Kentucky Bluegrass—Lance Scaper & Kleetus will
collide with the new combination of Joe Wolf & Charlie
Bonifer in a battle between two teams jockeying for position
in the tag team rankings! Who will emerge victorious in
Kelly's Banquet Hall?
Other UWC favorites scheduled to appear March 17 at our 22nd
Anniversary Event include Mr. Black, JJ Cruz with Craig Z-
List, Delmonico The Destroyer, Jay “The Key” Evans, Textbook
Philly Madison, Bobby Piper, The “Lucky One” Dave Reed, The
Short Bus Express—The Great Cerenzio & The “Jersey Shore Mad
Man” Slayer with Donnie Victory, The “Hair Tie Hero” Tony
Vee, Warhead, and more! You never know just who will show up
at a special event like this!
