BSE TO TRAVEL ACROSS CANADA IN SUPPORT OF THE UNITED WAY

From August 10th to August 26th, BSE will embark on an 11-stop tour spanning Ontario, Manitoba and Saskatchewan, in support of the United Way.

From Sunday August 10th until Sunday August 17th, BSE will be joined by Trailer Park Boys characters Randy and Mr. Lahey, who will perform part of their comedy act at the BSE event and the other half while hosting the official BSE after party. Check www.bloodsweatandears.com for venues for both the event and the after party.

From Friday, August 15th to Tuesday, August 26th, BSE will be joined by the “World Champ” Joe E Legend. A former WWE and TNA superstar and a current Heavyweight Champion in 5 different countries in Europe and Africa, the proud Canadian returns to Canada for a series of matches in hopes to add Canada to his list of championship countries. As he proudly boasts, “Heroes come and go but there is only one Legend!”

On Sunday August 17th in Swift Current, “The War Machine” Rhino will return to BSE, this time to try and dethrone the “World Champ”! Rhino is no stranger to BSE, having wrestled previously in Mississauga, Kirkland Lake and even making the trip to Iqaluit, Nunavut.

Also on Sunday August 17th, fans will see TNA Knockout Tracy Brooks in action. Her opponent is yet to be determined, but will be from the TNA Knockouts roster.

The major reason for BSE’s cross provincial endeavor is for charity. All proceeds of the tour will benefit the United Way.

“BSE prides itself on giving back to the communities it performs in”, mentions Arda Ocal, co-owner of BSE. In Brampton, BSE is partnered with the Brampton Neighbourhood Resource Centre, a United Way affiliated charity (www.bnrc.org). Each event, 15-20 troubled youth enjoy free tickets to the event, a meet greet with wrestlers and a pizza party before the show.

In January 2008, BSE traveled to Iqaluit Nunavut to host 2 sold out shows. In the days leading up to the event, Ocal and several BSE wrestlers visited the youth corrections centre, conducted an assembly at elementary, middle and high schools, and enjoyed a traditional meal and games with underprivileged youth in the community.

Dates in Manitoba will also be announced. This information, along with venue information, ticket prices and bell times, will be found on BSE's website.
