What Culture Pro Wrestling’s first foray onto American soil takes place this Saturday, just one day before WrestleMania 33. Held at the Orlando Sports Center, a number of WCPW’s biggest stars will be in action at State Of Emergency, and some major indie names are set to debut.

Newcomers Michael Elgin and recent ROH Title contender Bobby Fish shall have their hands full against Primate and David Starr, respectively, while Floridian indie regular Chasyn Rance faces the returning Grado. Prestige members BT Gunn and Joe Hendry will also be in singles action, and if the #Prospect2Orlando project is actually successful, a match with Drake and James R. Kennedy awaits.

The WCPW Title will also be on the line as Drew Galloway defends his belt against Rampage, a man screwed out of the gold just over nine months ago. El Ligero vs. Ricochet completes the card, and Jim Cornette and commentator Matt Striker shall also be in attendance. State Of Emergency will be made available through WhatCulture Extra at a later date, and a limited number of General Admission tickets are still available for $25 at Eventbrite.
