Former wrestling stars The Patriot, Bull James, and Crowbar will be in action, alongside hometown heroes Adam Payne, Gunner Trash and Tom “Mad Dog” Montefusco, at the April 14 event at St. Mary’s High School in Rutherford.
It all begins with the pre-show meet-and-greet at 2:30. The first bell rings at 3:30 p.m.
Proceeds will support the Bergen County Tracers program, which assists veterans who become homeless or are in need.
Since 2015, the Bergen County Division of Veteran Services has nearly housed 300 veterans in permanent and affordable housing.
The event means a great deal to founder Chris “Crowbar” Ford because his father served in the United States Air Force.
Ford says he’s “fortunate to make it to the top” of his profession and is now taking the opportunity to use his talents to give back to the community
He’s successfully produced Rescue Mania events Felician University, Becton High School in East Rutherford and the Lyndhurst Recreation Center.
This time around, he again promises late 80s-style entertainment, with solid ring work, colorful and interesting characters and all that crazy stuff that made professional wrestling so popular.
Ticket prices range from $12 to $40.
Nearly all the front-row seats are gone, so organizers urge everyone interested to get their tickets sooner rather than later.
