New "Joe Powers Memorial Show"

ACW would like to Thank Everyone for last nite's show, we had a great turn out to share our memories of Joe Powers, Jimmy"Boogie Woogie Man" Valiant and Sandy Scott gave Joe's wife a special present of a small version of the poster and beside it was "Thanks for the Memories" signed by with all the wrestlers and other special people in Joe's life.You can see pics from this show and others at:

Photos by thombrewer, also Joe's wife took some special pictures we hope to share with you soon.
However it has come to our Attention that Albert Carico aka Joe Powers jr will be trying to copy cat this Memorial soon in Roanoke, we feel that this is very disrespectful to Joe's Memory if it happens, ACW HAS has been doing this show ever year since his death, with his family's blessings, we raised money for his tombstone, he was best friends with Eclipso, Rolling Thunder and others who do this show, who are VERY upset over this news, last year when we had this show Albert said he would do it and didn't even show up for the show, NOW he and some OTHER wrestling group wants to profit from it, we hope not, we hope the fans will see this and not attend because we feel it is not sincere and a gimick to try to draw a crowd, we hate to ask fans NOT to go to any indy wrestling event but this one hits home with several ACW wrestlers, and Joe Powers needs to be remembered by everyone for the wrestler he was and not for Albert's actions.
Again Thanks to everyone and God Bless Joe Powers and ALL of you.

Are they planning on donating the money to the family too? If so then I think the family deserves all the help they can get and there is no need to be petty about things if they are donating the money. If they are not, then that is a completely different story.

Re: New "Joe Powers Memorial Show"

We forgot to mention former WCW referee Ron West was also at the show to see Sandy Scott and Jimmy Valiant, it seems since we've returned to the old school/Mid-Atlantic wrestling we are getting a lot of attention from former Mid-Atlantic legends, Johnny Weaver will be appearing soon along with Sandy Scott and Jimmy Valiant in the near future, also talks with the Masked SuperStar are in the works.

Re: New "Joe Powers Memorial Show"

We here at ACW believe with all our hearts that Joe Powers would be very happy and pleased with what is going on here in our promotion now.We are also happy to announce that coming soon Mid Atlantic Wrestling Legends Don Kernodle (Pvt Nelson's old tag team partner) and his brother Rocky Kernodle.More great news on the way,so keep checking back!!
