June 7, 2007
AWA Professional Wrestling, the major league of professional wrestling since 1959, is back for its second year at “the World’s Home of the Figure 8” ® on Wednesday June 13th. The squared-circle superstars are back for more headlocks, body slams, and dropkicks off the top rope for fans of the sport. Tickets are on sale now for this colossal racing and wrestling event.
And once again this year, there will be plenty of exciting Speedrome racing action on the docket. The Jiffy Lube Late Models and Hornets will take to the surface for side-by-side competition. The night will begin with the full racing program, then capped off by a spine-tingling Jiffy Lube Late Model Figure 8. The AWA Wrestling extravaganza follows all that. Also, during the night will be an autograph session for the superstars of the AWA. It gives all the fans a chance to meet and greet the athletes up close.
THE PATRIOT
The masked professional wrestler best known as The Patriot started wrestling in 1988 in the American Wrestling Association as The Trooper, where he wrote out tickets for his opponents after defeating them. He formed a tag team with D.J. Peterson and they won the World Tag Team Titles in a feud with Mike Enos and Wayne Bloom.
He then went to the Global Wrestling Federation for the first-time as The Patriot in 1991 and quickly became the top face there by winning both the North American Title and the Television Title. He feuded with Al Perez, Eddie Gilbert and The Dark Patriot while there. In early 1993, The Patriot went to wrestle in All Japan Pro Wrestling after the GWF folded and he had success with Jackie Fulton who wrestled as "The Eagle" to assist the Patriot gimmick.
In 1994, he went to World Championship Wrestling to form a team with Marcus “Buff” Bagwell called Stars N Stripes. They feuded with Paul Orndorff and Paul Roma and won the World Tag Team Titles twice. In 1997, Patriot moved on to the World Wrestling Federation and feuded with Bret Hart. The premise of this feud was that Hart had just started his anti-American Hart Foundation, and the Patriot was, as the name implied, a man who stood up for America. He defeated Hart on television in a non-title match on July 28, 1997, but never won the WWF Title from Hart when it was on the line.
After leaving the WWF in 2002, The Patriot has been wrestling on the independent circuit. He has competed in such federations as: Maryland Championship Wrestling, Natonal Wrestling Superstars, and back in the historic AWA.

As Dale Gagne(r) has repeatedly pointed out to you losers, he's simply running an honest business. I defy anyone to find anything misleading in the above press release. PS: If there is anything misleading in it, remember, the AWA didn't supply it, or even bother to verify it, and you should aim your criticism solely at Indianapolis' Blood Hound Underground Indianapolis Speedrome.
