3XWrestling Prepares For Two Major Events
Pro Wrestlers Set to Perform at Iowa’s Latino Heritage Festival
DES MOINES, Iowa - 3XWrestling (3XW) proudly presents two major events this month in Des Moines, including a first-time appearance at a popular local festival with matches held in a very unique setting.
First, 3XW makes its debut at Iowa’s Latino Heritage Festival, featuring two afternoons of wrestling on Sept. 17-18 from 1-6:30 p.m. on the Court Ave. bridge downtown. For the first time ever, 3XW will set up its ring directly in the center of this historic bridge, with the Des Moines River as a back drop for the action.
Fans can expect an extra “lucha libre” flair to 3XW’s typical style of professional wrestling and matches will be held throughout the afternoon with breaks for the festival’s other performances. Anyone attending the festival can watch the action because access is included with festival admission.
Wrestlers competing at the festival include 3XW Heavyweight champion “The Rebel” Jeremy Wyatt, 3XW Tag Team champions American Ground & Air – Ben Sailer & Nate Bash, “2011 King of Des Moines” Ryan Slade, “The Unbreakable” Zach Thompson, The American Bulldogs – Maddog McDowell and “The American Fury” Jon West, Gage Octane, “Delicious” Devin Carter, and The Mauler with Chad Mylan. Mysterious masked competitors Rebelucha, The River Monster, and Wildcat will be in action, as well as the returns of Bryce Benjamin and Joey Mark to 3XW. Also making his 3XW debut is Cpl. Julio Suarez, a veteran of the United States Marine Corps
Then, 3XW returns on Sept. 23 to the Forte Center at All Play in downtown Des Moines for Clobberpalooza Classic 4, featuring five huge grudge matches and the most highly-anticipated rematch of the year for the 3XW Heavyweight championship.
