WEEKEND RESULTS, NEWS & NOTES
Ring of Honor held its triple shot over the weekend, and Booker T defeated A.J. Styles in their first-ever meeting in Northeast Wrestling. I have just a handful of results below.
In other notes…
Stro, who used to wrestle as WCW’s Maestro, was in a near-fatal car accident over the weekend. “But I am doing ok,” Stro wrote in an email. “Thank you all so much for your help and support.” Stro is still active in the Carolinas indy scene.
And you can always reach me with your indy results at chrisjvetter@hotmail.com. I request that you remember to say date, location (including building, city & state!), and full name of the promotion.
