They said it couldn’t be done. Well, it is being done and done very well!<\/p>\n
RealProWrestling’s premier broadcast on PAX-TV next Sunday at 4:00 PM EST (3:00pm CST) is the first-ever national telecast of real professional wrestling.<\/p>\n
This past weekend in St. Louis, around 1,800 lucky NCAA Wrestling Division I Championship attendees got the break of a lifetime as they were invited to an exclusive advanced screening of RealProWrestling Episode I.<\/p>\n
Located in a massive 100-foot high tent right behind the HardRock Caf\u00e9 in St. Louis Union Station, RealProWrestling hosted the premier parties on Friday, March 18, 2005 at 1:15pm, 3:00pm and 9:30pm to standing room-only crowds of wrestling fans and influencers as well as various members of the wrestling media community.<\/p>\n
Also on-hand were members of the RealProWrestling marketing team and athletes who competed during the inaugural season’s taping. The wrestlers were there to sign posters and t-shirts for the throngs of fans who showed up and who share their rabid enthusiasm for America’s newest professional sports league.<\/p>\n
The day’s highlight occurred during the 9:30pm screening when wrestling icon and RPW supporter Dan Gable addressed the frenzied crowd. When introduced by RPW Marketing VP Chris Chickering he was met with a thundering round of applause. He told the crowd that we must support RPW for wrestling to continue to grow or the sport will be swallowed up by Title IX.<\/p>\n
Gable and American wrestling icon Rulon Gardner are set to appear in a bold and dramatic full-page ad in USA Today later this week to both help support the broadcast premier and to inform the world of the RPW brand platform on behavior in sports.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
