American
Wrestling rampage 2008 Tour
A few months ago, I learned the
coming of a European federation which would stop in
Lyon, announcing many big names in the business and even
some women wrestlers . Humm that is interesting!!
Sceptic me?? no let’s say the French vision of wrestling
quite disappoints me. . But I can’t get off my mind some
names, such as Tatanka, Ball Mahoney, René Duprée, Sabu,
Sunny and Bret Hart. Did I mention Sunny et Bret the
Hitman Hart in Lyon, one thing for sure, guess who will
be there !
After
that an appointment was taken with the people in charge of
the communication at the Hall Tony Garnier, CMP decided to
send a team of two people to cover the event. I was glad to
be part of this adventure. Once in, it was with a great
pleasure and thanks to a press backstage pass that I could
watch with my eyes the organization of the show, And I mean
the job of the local team of the hall Tony Garnier, and of
course the one of the AWR, the wrestling federation. The
American Wrestling Rampage with a so relaxed style prepared
us a great show, some French federation should try to learn
a lot from them (oops let’s not be too hard on them).
Something very important come to my mind during the show,
this tour is a very special one for the French people, see
it’s the first opportunity for he gaulois to see a wrestling
show with some real lights and pyrotechnics effect, you can
trust a Yankee on this one.
Humm I won’t
develop in detail all matches that took place this night,
concentring myself on developing the most important aspect
of the evening: the show of course. It was a so memorable
night for so many things: thanks to Bret Hart who gave us
his last show in France, saying thank you and goodbye to
all of us. His farewell was so emotional.It was a night to
be remembered .I will always remember, our talk with Bret
the Hitman Hart on his new book release, Sabu who was
trying to get some chairs backstage, Ball Mahoney yelling
at my back, saying we forgot him on the train, fans went
from their seats to the autograph session. Wrestlers close
to their fans, a so memorable night. The wrestling match
offered by The Alpha Female and Liza Fury was a real good
performance, proving that we could have real great women
wrestlers in Europe, a true miracle.

I can’t
forget the total surprise of the German wrestler, The
alpha female hoots by everybody except me. Imagine the
night, everybody on the size of the uk female wrestler
Liza Fury, but not me, what a good laughs!!. See it’s a
long story between English and Americans, way back from
the independence in 1776. The incomprehension of Liza Fury
was delightful. As you could guess if Bret Hart has
stolen the show, the beautiful Sunny kept everybody ‘s
attention, finally a true diva in France, it was just a
matter of time. But don’t panic, the next generation is
already here as I discover the delightful Rachel Saint
Clair, alias Miss Perfection, a perfect fit for the miss.
It doesn’t mean Sunny is ready to give up, I think
everybody will agree with me on this one, Suny please stay
as long as you want !!!!, you have so much to offer. The
wrestling match opposing team Perfection versus Tammy
Sytch & the originals of the ECW was huge, real great
one, real fans would understand me. The federation
delivers us a great show, exulting with the Marseillaise
with the French flag on the side of .. a Québécois, René
Duprée. A Big night for René which was happy to be a face
and the most popular wrestler of the arena, unusual fact
for an ancient member of the WWE team, la résistance. He
finally got what he deserves. The main event show us René
Duprée versus Test, yes you well heared, the ex champion
of The ECW was here. The event was full with great
performers.
The Alpha Female
Miss Perfection, so perfect...
The
American Wrestling Rampage is a federation to watch,
if you could stop by, do not hesitate, it’s really a
great show. The wresters are very close to their
fans, the action is guaranteed, it’s a kind of total
package in wrestling.
There will have one more thing
to add on my list in 2009, to assist of their next
tour in France and of course to know a little more
on their diva. They really amaze me as well as other
European wrestlers but don’t worry about that; I
will personally solve this case.
