Maple Leaf Pro, a Canadian wrestling company, is bringing an exciting sport to St. Clair College Saturday.
A show was also held at the college on Friday.
“Is there a better time in the history of our country than stand up, have a maple leaf and say, ‘we’re Canadian and we love it’?” questioned Scott D’Amore, president of Maple Leaf Pro Wrestling.
D’Amore took over the brand last year, reviving it. The company is planning to host more shows across the country. He said the corporate head office will be situated in Windsor. D’Amore also plans to build a state-of-the-art training facility, set to open early next year.
“We’re securing a location and getting ready to start building that so we can mold and showcase and develop wrestling talent, not just when they’re here on these big shows on this platform, but also back in the sweat lab and giving them the reps they need in coaching, in tutoring, in the mentoring they need to succeed,” he added.
The event at St. Clair takes place at 7 p.m.
