Heavy On Wrestling is a professional wrestling promotion located in Duluth, Minnesota which was founded by Dave Sabick in 2007. [ [http://areavoices.com/jimmyjabber/?blog=10879 Jimmy Jabber ] ]

History

Twenty-two year old Dave Sabick from Duluth, Minnesota founded Heavy On Wrestling in 2007 in order to support a variety of causes in the Midwest area of the United States, as well as to provide an additional venue for lesser-known wrestlers to compete, perform, and train in the hope that they may some day be scouted and hired by a major TV promotion.

The promotion held its first live event on July 21 2007 at the Wessman Arena in Superior, Wisconsin and featured Christy Hemme, Nora Greenwald (Molly Holly), "Wild" Bill Irwin, and Baron Von Raschke. [ [http://www.heavyonwrestling.com/results.html Heavy On Wrestling Results ] ] The event drew in some 500 spectators and Sabick donated ten percent of the night's proceeds to a local youth wrestling program.

Heavy On Wrestling held its second live event on November 17 2007 at the Duluth Skydome. The show featured Christy Hemme, Jake "The Snake" Roberts and Rikishi among several other independent wrestlers. [ [http://www.heavyonwrestling.com Heavy On Wrestling ] ]

The third event entitled "Crossing The Line" was held June 14 2008 and featured Nick Dinsmore, Terry Funk, Lacey Von Erich, and The Honky Tonk Man. Capping off the night was an exciting triple threat ladder match between Ben Sailer, Nate Bash, and Joey Envy. The match spilled out in to the crowd. Bash suffered a legitimate head injury when he landed awkwardly on a chair, but he continued the match. Two tables and a step ladder were broken before Sailer climbed to the top, earning him a shot against Arik Cannon for the HOW championship at a future show. This event topped 800 in ticket sales.

The fourth event "Insult To Injury" was held August 15 2008 at the Hoghead Festival in Proctor, MN.

The fifth event, entitled "Have a Funkin' Nice Day" will be held at Mertz Mortarelli Field House on the UWS campus and will feature Terry Funk returning for a 2nd appearance, and Mick Foley, The Highlanders, and Cherry.
