Jordan Fox’s BLOG: Heroes of Wrestling’s First Episode

Disclaimer – Sometimes you might wonder what the point of the stories are… I’ll be honest, sometimes there isn’t going to be any meaning to what I’m blogging. I just simply want to share these really cool moments I get to experience. I get to experience these wonderful moments because I work in “The Business.” I work in wrestling, that might not mean much to a non fan, but to wrestling fans, being a full time wrestling employee, like I am, is the Holy Grail.

The wrestling business is my full time job, my “shoot” job & this blog details the fun I experience in our wacky world of wrestling… ENJOY!
Episode 1 is in the books! Heroes of Wrestling is officially an Indy Wrestling Promotion with a media outlet that can reach thousands. As of this writing in fact, it (or we) has reached over 1,400 people (in terms of views.)

I’m anxious to know what people thought of the show but it’s hard to get accurate poll numbers in a situation like this. I could run a poll off of the Heroes site but it would be biased because the majority of people that would see the poll are people that have liked the Heroes of Wrestling Facebook page.
So, I guess that is something we won’t be able to fully report on until we get a wider reach with our episodes. Until then, you are stuck with what I thought of the show lol.

We shot 4 awesome matches, each one I grew more & more jealous that I am not able to get in there & learn from each of these professional athletes.

*Fabio Estrada vs “Mr Studtacular” Brysin Scott – These two guys are pure workers. I’ve been able to scratch the surface with both of these guys & I can’t wait to have them both on the show. you absolutely need to watch this match.

*Randy Wayne vs Graham Bell – I called my first “bull rope match” which featured Randy Wayne & Graham Bell. Holy shit these two guys are tough. That was a lot of fun. I had met both guys earlier in the evening & both were really cool to talk with. I was in a couple of group convo’s with Randy & you can tell he knows a lot about the wrestling business so I hope to pick his brain more as I get to know him better. I didn’t want to be the douche bag that asks him for advice on the first night lol.

*”The Arab Legend” Al Farat & Akbar Farat (w/ DF Santos) vs Brent Mckenzie & Scott Mckenzie (w/ Andy Dalton) – This match featured Al Farat who is someone that I really look up to. He has given me advice multiple times since i came into the business & has even came on my show, Indy Wrestling Radio. It was a fun match with tons of antics. This is truly one of those matches that you suspend your disbelief during & have a hell of a time watching.

*Brock Baker vs. “The Young Gun” Chandler Hopkins – Very Entertaining match. These two guys are insane in the best way possible. both of them in great shape & both of them know their way around a wrestling ring in a way that I hope to accomplish someday.
This show brought back a great memory of mine from the night it was shot. The night started off with me getting ready in the locker room & as I was pulling my hair back, my friend & stablemate, Malico, came to me & said we need to shoot something short for our MadWorld web series we are developing. During the 30 second clip he called me by my character name for the first time, Sly. I was over the moon. Something I’ve worked so hard towards & dedicated so much time to felt like it was starting to come together at that moment. It’s still one of my favorite moments in this business.

I hope everyone that is reading this will go to the “Heroes of Wrestling” Facebook page & watch our first episode. For me, someone new to the wrestling business (that has been a life long fan) it was truly an honor to be a part of the making of this new show. I absolutely cannot wait to see our work on tv.
Till next time ladies & gents! Stay Strong & Too Sweet!!
