Greg Valentine and Gerald Brisco added to the Legends of Wrestling in Alton on May 10th and 11th

Posted: Feb 1st 2013 By: mikeiles

On May 10 and May 11, the Argosy Casino in Alton, Illinois (a suburb north of St. Louis along the Mississippi River) is presenting the Legends of St. Louis Wrestling. On hand will be Harley Race, Baron Von Raschke, Cowboy Bob Orton, Jr., Gerald Brisco, Greg Valentine and former Wrestling at the Chase commentator Larry Matysik. On May 10, it will be a meet-and-greet followed by a question and answer period with all of those on hand. Frank Cusumano of KSDK-tv, Channel 5, will be the host.

The next night ? May 11 ? the legends will be on hand for a Southern Illinois Championship Wrestling card promoted by Herb Simmons. Among the independent stars on hand will be Ron Powers, Ricky Cruz, Bull Schmitt and Flash Flanagan. The intention of the casino is that their relation with Simmons and Matysik will be successful and they will present a show every three or four months perhaps with an appearance of a St. Louis legend.
