Kenny King has been featured on WWE’S Tough Enough, but that moment is sure to be far from the highlight of this young stars career. King initially trained by WWE superstars Al Snow, Bob Holly, Chavo Guerrero and Ivory. In Las Vegas, he got to train with former AWA World champion Nick Bockwinkel and Scott Casey only improving his talent at a rapid speed.
While working on a local show he would go toe to toe with Mike Mizanin, known today simply as The Miz. A short stint but a very educational one was his time at TNA that only would prepare him for where he is today.
Today he is one of the top young tag teams in ROH called The All Night Express, with Rhett Titus. The two would be able to capture a huge victory in St Louis on November 6th against the American Wolves , ROH World Champion Davey Richards and Eddie Edwards in what many fans noted to MWR was the match of the night.
We caught up with the red hot Kenny King and he had this advice to all the wrestling fans around the world.
The NWA X-Division Champ Oliver Cain was faced with his biggest challenge to date when he was set to defend his title against former Ring of Honor World Champion Eddie Edwards. In a battle that saw Eddie Edwards chop the living daylights out of the champ from ring post to ring post, the fans were seen shrieking from the sounds of the blows to Cain’s chest.
Midway through the match Oliver Cain was on the ropes, bleeding from the chops and a clothesline that looked to take Cain out of the matchup for good. Cain could have easily of given up, a lesser man would have.
With the heart and dedication of a champion Oliver Cain stepped up his game to show Eddie Edwards why he was the NWA X-division Champion.
With an flying elbow, from the top rope, and some vicious kicks to Edwards the fight was on. Edwards still looked in control as the match heated up. It would be one mistake from Edwards during the match that would have the fan favorite Cain have hope. As Edwards went for the pin, Cain hooked a triangle choke on the ROH Starwhile getting his own shoulders off the mat to escape the pin.
At first it looked as if Edwards would be able to escape himself but as Cain adjusted his body and put on the pressure, Edwards had no other choice but to tap out to the NWA X-Division Champion.
Fans came to their feet as the two men shook hands in middle of the ring.

He is one of the most electrifying men in pro wrestling today. His name is Jimmy Jacobs a man who has been involved in some of the most exciting matches in Ring of Honors history.
After two years of having tearing it up away from Ring of Honor, the controversial Jacobs has returned this summer to blaze a new path to his old stomping ground. Meanwhile brand new ROH World Champion Davey Richards reigns supreme after a big win defeating his former partner Eddie Edwards.
Fearless and always exciting, fans have to keep their eyes glued to the match to keep up with the moves and antics of Jacobs who is one of wrestling’s great minds in the game today.
It is with great pleasure that we announce that card number 51 is the MWR Trading card set is

Missouri Wrestling Revival excited that Eddie Edwards has become the brand new ROH World Champion by defeating Roddrick Strong at the Manhattan Center in New York City this evening to become a Triple Crown Champion.
Eddie Edwards was the first Ring of Honor World Television Champion, he and Davey Richards (The American Wolves) have been Ring of Honor World Tag Team Champions and now Eddie Edwards is The Ring of Honor World Heavyweight Champions!

Eddie Edwards joins his tag team partner Davey Richards and fellow Ring of Honor wrestler and World Champion Tyler Black to be featured with other exciting wrestlers such as Mark Sterling, Jeremy Wyatt, Brandon Espinosa and “Superstar” Steve Fender just to name a few.
I was happy today when I was working on trying to get post to be ready for the week when I ran across the Eddie Edwards official website and saw that the MWR Site and cards were featured on the front page of one of wrestling’s hottest young wrestlers home page.

Once again thank you to Eddie Edwards and all the wrestling stars that joined the hottest wrestling collectable going today.
We are thrilled to have one of the top wrestlers in the world Eddie Edwards as the twentieth card in the MWR Trading Card Series. Edwards has wrestled around the world and can be seen in R0H on HDnet every Monday Nights.
Having been trained by not only the legendary Killer Kowalski, but the Pro Wrestling NOAH Dojo, Eddie has become a talent that is desired on wrestling shows all over the world since his 2002 debut. While he is most noted for his work in Ring Of Honor, Eddie is known to work for many companies in the New England area, as well as NOAH in Japan.
While he debuted in Ring Of Honor in 2006, Eddie probably gained most notoraity after forming the team of The American Wolves with Davey Richards in 2008. It wasn’t long after their formation that the two captured the Ring Of Honor Tag Team Titles from rivals Kevin Steen and El Generico in April of 2009. The feud continued well into 2009, only to be put to a halt after an “Anything Goes” match with Kevin Steen in Boston, Massachusetts at “The Final Countdown Tour: Boston” on September 25th that resulted in a serious injury for Eddie.
The next night, with his elbow broken, Eddie went on to team with Davey to take on Steen and Generico in a ‘Ladder Wars’ match, retaining their championship. It wouldn’t be until December 19th of that year that Eddie not only made his return to wrestling, but that the Wolves lost their tag belts, being defeated by the Briscoe Brothers.
With feuds against men like Steen & Generico and The Briscoes, the Wolves championship run also led to numerous memorable tag title defenses including a 45 minute draw again Tyler Black and Bryan Danielson now known as “Tag title classic”. While he is widely known as a tag team wrestler, when he captured the first ever Ring Of Honor TV Title, in a tournament that lead him to face his own partner, Eddie was able to show doubters that while he worked good with a partner, he may be even better on his own.

Missouri Wrestling Revival was on hand to check out Ring of Honor this past weekend in Collinsville Illinois.
Some of the top talent in the sport today thrilled the fans with fact paced and breath taking matches.
The Midwest was strongly represented as the 2009 MWR Wrestler of the Year Mark Sterling, Mike Sydal, Ace Hawkins, Brandon Espinosa and Jordan McEntyre was in action along with Midwest ROH Superstars the ROH Champion Tyler Black, Delirious, Daizee Haze and Davey Richards.
During the intermission Michael Gordon invited all the fans to join him and Rebel Devil Events to the ROH after party (the same one that you had seen advertised on this very site) that would be happing at the bar Hurricanes right down the road.
For a measly five dollars fans not only got to hang with their favorite stars but the party was hosted by Delirious with Comedy set by “Classic” Colt Cabana!
The first person we saw was Rebel Devil’s J. Guy who let us know that we were in for a great night. Boy was he not lying. MWR’S Dubray Tallman started the night off drinking shots with the former women’s World Champion Amazing Kong and that would just be one small example of memories that will last a lifetime for the fans at Hurricanes on that evening.
MWR would like to thank Michael Gordon, J.Guy, the Rebel Devil Events crew and Ring of Honor for having us be a part of this exciting evening. Big props to all the ROH wrestlers who had worked hard during the show and then take time to get to the know the fans that support them.

One of the hardest wrestlers to get your picture with in the Midwest is Mark Sterling (if you don’t believe me ask chuck) Chuck Maddox jumped to get his picture taken with the MWR Wrestler of the Year.
