ENFIELD, CT — A local independent pro wrestling organization returns to its home base in Enfield with a big show this Saturday, and fans are being offered a special incentive to bring a new unwrapped toy for the Enfield Police Department's annual Toys For Joy campaign.

Blitzkrieg! Pro Wrestling will present "What About Me," the famous catchphrase of legendary ECW/WWE star Raven, who will be making a rare appearance in northern Connecticut. Also on the bill is former ECW standout Little Guido, formerly known as Nunzio in WWE. Anyone bringing a toy for the drive will receive an autographed photo of Little Guido.

"Last year, we contributed more than 50 toys for needy children due to the generosity of our fans, and we hope to beat that this Saturday," Blitzkrieg! Pro commissioner Tim Jensen said.
