Overview

The Capitol Arena in Washington, D.C., plays host to a historic night of wrestling, headlined by a massive world title defense. The peerless Edouard Carpentier puts his world heavyweight championship on the line against the rugged and dangerous veteran Danny McShain in a high-stakes encounter that has the national wrestling landscape watching closely. The undercard features a clash of styles as the technical specialist Chief Big Heart seeks to overcome the erratic and violent Dr. Jerry Graham. Additionally, fans are treated to a grueling Best Two Out Of Three Falls technical showcase between Roy Shire and Czaya Nandor. With intense rivalries boiling over and championships at stake, this event serves as a defining moment for the Capitol Wrestling Corporation this summer.
