Wrestling matches for Toys for Tots

Posted: Dec 13th 2016 By: Rachel Knapp

"Theres a really good following in the city of Ardmore in local wrestling, especially when it's centered around for Toys for Tots like this so it's really good to see the community to come out and participate in what we're doing," says wrestler Chris Cambridge.

Although wrestler Cambridge plays the villain in the match he says it's all for a good cause.

"I actually just got into it with Santa Claus a few minutes ago so, but I wont hurt him too bad that he doesn't deliver toys this year," says Cambridge.

The admittance price for a wrestling show is usually a few dollars, but the Imperial Wrestling Revolution is asking for a toy donation as an entrance fee.

C.E.O. of IWR, Jerry Bostic, says this is their third year to participate in Toys for Tots.

"Every child deserves something for Christmas so its just a good way for us to give back to the community," says Bostic.

"Giving back is good, especially when people need it," says 12 year-old Jeremiah Stanley.

4 year-old Kendall wanted to show off his wrestling skills. He says Bostic is his favorite wrestler.

"We come together like a great big family and we put on a great family oriented show that everybody can enjoy and it's you can't ask for more. It's never too late to give for Toys for Tots even if you want to give to them after today, you can find them on their website and find numerous destinations and make sure everyone has a very merry Christmas," says Bostic.

They collected over 200 toys at the wrestling match... and the IWR hopes to host another Toys for Tots wrestling match next year.
