Posted on April 28, 2009 by V.L. Stricklett
Diamond Dawg Promotions, the parent company of Black Diamond Wrestling, announces the construction of a permanent facility for Black Diamond Wrestling shows beginning on June 5th 2009. The facility, located on US Rt. 40 just west of Bridgeport Ohio, continues to be constructed with a completion date of early May. Currently the walls have been raised, and electrical work is being done.
The arena, which will be known as the BDW “Dawg House” is nearly 4,000 sq. ft. Not included in that size is a locker room area with both male and female areas that adds nearly another 1,000 sq.ft. Appearing talent will have a separate entrance as well as indoor parking for security and safety for them. A 48 sq. ft. interview stage has just been completed too. Over head lighting, of not only bright match lighting, but will also feature over head colored lighting during entrances. Additionally the sound system components will be over head to add to the arena feel.
This is a big undertaking for the owners of Diamond Dawg Promotions, and they are confident the work is well worth the reward. Black Diamond Wrestling CEO Rikk Diamond had this to say. “Black Diamond Wrestling has surpassed everyone’s expectations with our history as the longest continuous running independent wrestling promotion in the Ohio Valley. We built our fan base in a large area holding events in every possible community for the past 5 years.” When asked why now was the time to get a permanent home Diamond added, “I feel we took ample time to create a fan base. Any community with suitable facilities to accommodate a BDW event we have held an event in. Our fans have been asking recently when we would have a permanent home. Even going as far as to approach some facilities for that. The fans want it, the stars of BDW want it, and now myself and Big Dawg want to make it happen.”
Pressed for information regarding some of the things fans can expect to see from BDW at the new “Dawg House” Diamond wouldn’t elaborate in detail. “We have some surprises. Big things to set BDW apart. Plans to really give our fans the best shows possible. Secrets if you will, that will make us stronger, better, and more talked about with our future events.” Asked for the slightest of detail regarding the first event on June 5th Diamond would only say this, “Its coming. The way the NWO revolutionized WCW, the Attitude Era revolutionized WWE, the “Dawg House” will do that for BDW. I have just placed a small hint into the first event on June 5th. That being NWO, WCW, and WWE. That’s all I will say at this time.”
Big Dawg, co owner of Black Diamond Wrestling and CEO of Diamond Dawg Promotions, could not be reached for comment.
