Labor Day weekend in the Chicago area is going to be a huge one for wrestling fans. Obviously with Dragon Gate USA coming to the Congress Theater on 9/6 many fans from all over the country will be converging on the Windy City. The night before the big DGUSA show, AAW: Professional Wrestling Redefined will also be holding a big event just outside of Chicago at the Berwyn Eagles Club. This makes for a perfect opportunity to check out one of the Midwest's hottest companies on a night they showcase not only their own top talent, but also some of the stars of Dragon Gate USA. Go to www.AAWrestling.com for all the info on AAW including a roster page, store with DVDs, upcoming events info and more.

AAW is now into it's sixth year of promoting top notch shows featuring a mix of the best upcoming talent in the Midwest and top indy stars. AAW has always set itself apart with it's high quality production. Although the Eagles Club is an intimate venue with a capacity of only 250 seats for a wrestling show you still experience the "big event" vibe that you would in a larger venue. A video screen above the entrance way features promos between matches keeping the show fast paced and getting fans who may not be familiar with the product up to speed with what the talent and stories are all about. Add in professional lighting and sound and you get a show with a different vibe than your run-of-the-mill indy wrestling event.

"AAW was the obvious choice when we were looking for a partner with Dragon Gate USA," DGUSA VP Gabe Sapolsky said. "Their production is really a step above and makes them stand out. They are a very professionally run company and that shows in the ring and in their strong, local following. All the talent on the show serve a purpose and the booking is really well done. They provide a great night of good, solid professional wrestling and do so on a consistent basis."

Let's talk briefly about the talent that will be showcased on 9/5. AAW is pleased to welcome Bryan Danielson, as he makes his debut against one of the top singles competitors on the roster in Silas Young. Fans may know Silas from his recent work in ROH and he has been one of the staples of AAW throughout the years having memorable matches with Jimmy Jacobs, Tyler Black and Josh Raymond among others. Silas has recently set his sights on the AAW Heavyweight title, currently held by former WWE star Jay Bradley. Obviously, this match against Bryan Danielson will be the biggest of Silas Young's career as he tests his skills against a man considered by many to be the best wrestler in the world.

Also on the card is a six man tag match as the AAW Heritage Champion Arik Cannon teams with The Northstar Express (Darrin Corbin/Ryan Cruz) as they take on CHIKARA stars Gran Akuma, Jigsaw and Hallowicked. Cannon and the NSE have been a unit in AAW since their debut in 2007 and are undefeated in AAW in six man matches. The issues between Gran Akuma and Jigsaw/Hallowicked are well documented and one has to wonder if they can co-exist in this match that is sure to feature plenty of fast paced action.

On top of all this, also featured will be a clash of FRAY! Competitors when Johhny Gargano and Shiima Xion both return to AAW and face off in one-on-one action. The highly touted team of The Young Bucks also make their debut and all of the top teams in AAW (The Phoenix Twins, Faith in Nothing, The House of Truth) are petitioning for that match. AAW Heavyweight Champion Jay Bradley will also be defending the top prize in AAW on this huge night as AAW kicks off a tremendous weekend of wrestling. You won't find a better show in the area for the affordable price of $15.00 front row, $10 general admission.

"I'm really looking forward to attending the September 5th event," Sapolsky said. "They have some really interesting match ups that you won't see anywhere else and it is a great place for new talent to shine. They have a really nice mix of veterans, upcomers and independent standouts. I really look forward to watching AAW DVDs as they have a great flow and build from match-to-match and show-to-show. Now I'm looking forward to seeing AAW live."

Come on out to Berwyn on Saturday 9/5 and see first hand why AAW is Professional Wrestling Redefined! Tickets are now available in the events section at www.AAWrestling.com.
