Ring of Fire Pro Wrestling

After nearly twenty years of working to digitize and archive as much Portland Wrestling footage as I have been able to locate, this channel reached 25,000 subscribers! I am grateful to each and every one of you wrestling fans who have joined us native Pacific Northwesterners on this journey to show the world that Portland Wrestling was just as vital to the history of professional wrestling and WWE as Stampede Wrestling, World Class, the AWA, and Jim Crockett Promotions. Many thanks to the local fans and wrestlers alike who contributed their own video tapes to this immense archive, and to the promoters who I worked with to produce nearly 500 weekly episodes of local wrestling, whereby preserving the work of the indy wrestlers who carried the grappling torch through a dark age that lasted thirty years. Lastly, thanks to Dutch Savage for setting me on the path to understanding what wrestling is meant to be and to Bruce Hart & Bob Johnson for the opportunity to work at their sides preserving the memories of countless wrestlers who kept the territories thriving and the true history of Stampede Wrestling through our Hart Beat Radio podcast. It is time for a new chapter to unfold on this channel.
