For the second year in a row, local Indianapolis fed Insanity Pro Wrestling has won a poll deciding which fed local fans prefer. Last year, the poll was restricted to Indiana based federations, but this year included feds from around the midwest, and STILL Insanity Pro Wrestling has come out on top! Now, some of you who follow Cleveland All-Pro Wrestling or IWA Mid-South (second and third place, respectively), but don't know much about Insanity Pro, don't you think it's time you learned?
Insanity Pro Wrestling started out in 2001, running modest local shows at an Indianapolis based Knights of Columbus hall. From the beginning though, IPW made an effort to put forth the best product possible for the fans, even if they didn't have a bloated budget to bring in big names, and would do so by putting the best of the locals in the best combination of matches. IPW also started out a little more hardcore than what they've become these days-A LOT bloodier, and saw some pretty bloody battles between Mad Man Pondo, EZ Cruz, Brandon Prophet, Necro Butcher and more. There was a lot of skepticism from local vets who were dead set on doing things how they'd always been done-a formula which obviously wasn't working anymore-but the fans' voices were heard.
Over the years Insanity Pro Wrestling has built a pretty good reputation for themselves locally, and some of the best independent talents in the industry have made stops to visit, such as Colt Cabana, CM Punk, Matt Sydal, The Irish Airborne (Dave & Jake Crist)-just to name a FEW. The fed also features one of the top tournaments in the midwest every year, the Super Junior Heavyweight Tourney, which continually features not just some of the best local up and comers, but some of the best Junior Heavyweights from around the country as well.
If you haven't taken the time to check out this stellar fed, check them out online at insanityprowrestling.com, and see what all the fuss is about. Their next event is next Saturday, June 2 in Indianapolis, IN at the Salvation Army Gym, located at 1337 S. Shelby St. Just to give you an idea of what this fed puts out every month, next Saturday's card will include a main event of 1/2 of The Irish Airborne-Jake Crist-taking on former Wrestling Society X star, and midwest wrestling sensation M-Dogg 20 Matt Cross, a "Pure Wrestling Showdown" between local talent "Simply Spectacular" Dave Davidson and HWA talent Jon Moxley, four of the most talented young men to come out of the Indianapolis wrestling scene will square off-OMG v. Diehard Dustin Lee v. Drake Younger v. Vortekz-and that's just SOME of the great talent you'll see featured in this fed. They don't have a lot of glamour and glitz, but if you want some pure wrestling action, you'll love Insanity Pro Wrestling.
