Former WWE Intercontinental Champion Ahmed Johnson is set to make a rare pro wrestling appearance this month.
ISPW has announced that Johnson will be the special guest at their show on Saturday, March 11 in Washington, NJ. Johnson will be signing autographs and taking photos on behalf of Damage365 Promotions, who are also bringing AEW’s Nyla Rose to their booth. Ernest “The Cat” Miller will be appearing for fans at the DMZ Promotions booth.
The ISPW card that night at the Westwood Regional High School will feature Crowbar vs. Afa Jr., Tommy Dreamer vs. Rick Recon with Dave LaGreca, and more. Maven will be managing ISPW Heavyweight Champion Bull James and ISPW Women’s Champion Tina San Antonio.
Johnson left WWE in 1998 after a three year run with the company. He then worked for WCW from late 1999 until the spring of 2000. The Master of The Pearl River Plunge made a few indie appearances in 2002 and 2003, and spent some time working for WWE Hall of Famers Harlem Heat at their Pro Wrestling Alliance school before it closed, but he has stayed away from the pro wrestling spotlight for the most part.
Below are full details on the ISPW show sent to us:
AHMED JOHNSON RETURNING TO PRO WRESTLING FOR SPECIAL APPEARANCE AT ISPW SHOW NEXT SATURDAY 3/11 AT WESTWOOD REGIONAL HIGH SCHOOL IN NJ; TOMMY DREAMER, NYLA ROSE, ERNEST “THE CAT” MILLER, MAVEN, CROWBAR, DANNY MORRISON, AFA JR, AND MORE!
Former WWF Intercontinental Champion Ahmed Johnson will be returning to make a special guest appearance at ISPW next Saturday, March 11th at Westwood Regional High School in Township of Washington, NJ. He will be signing autographs and taking photos with Damage365 Promotions; who will also have former AEW Women’s Champion Nyla Rose at their booth. Former WCW Star Ernest “The Cat” Miller will also be making a special personal appearance at the show at the DMZ Promotions booth.
In the Main Event and what promises to be a hard hitting battle between two veterans, Crowbar will go one on one with “The Samoan Storm” Afa Jr. This will be a unique match as both men are currently doing the best work of their careers. With 60 years of experience combined between both performers, this promises to be one that the Garden State will remember for a very long time to come.
ECW Icon Tommy Dreamer will take on “The King of Rock” Rick Recon (with Dave LaGreca) with “The Superstar” Danny Morrison as the special guest referee. It’s no secret that Lagreca and Dreamer are very close friends and host Busted Open Radio together. What will the dynamic be like for this match? One thing we can promise, it will be a special one!
Former WWE Tough Enough Champion Maven is the “Manager of Champions” in ISPW as he manages both ISPW Heavyweight Champion Bull James and ISPW Women’s Champion Tina San Antonio. Maven promises that San Antonio will retain the title against Layla Luciano next Saturday night.
