GOWANDA - Maximum Force Wrestling will rock the house Saturday during Full Throttle at the Gowanda Moose Lodge, 201 Aldrich St., Gowanda at 7 p.m. Making his debut will be The Rebel, Gowanda's own, Rick Abbey, at almost 6 and a half feet tall, this long-haired, tattooed hillbilly with 20-inch biceps will be a force to be reckoned with.
"For being such a big, tough looking dude, Rick is one of the most good natured, polite and respectful people one could ever meet. He does have a wild side and we'll focus on and amplify that to make Rick one of the top bad guys in MFW," said Dave Coia Jr., MFW owner, "Who knows, maybe even feuding with Primal Warpath sometime down the road."
Abbey has a background in martial arts, training with Derek Moritz's Supreme Performance Karate, and has spent the majority of this past year learning pro wrestling techniques with Coia, a 12-year veteran of pro wrestling as Primal Warpath. The Rebel fits right into MFW's over the top characters and storylines that have made their shows so popular among loyal fans.
