Pro Wrestling Stars Coming to Marian High School

Marian Catholic High School in Chicago Heights, Illinois, will welcome professional wrestling stars from around the world for Warrior Wrestling 5 on Sunday, May 12^th. The wrestling event will serve as a fundraiser for scholarships for students as well as a “fun-raiser” for the school community and surrounding area of the South Suburbs and Northwest Indiana.

Current and alumni stars from every major promotion around the world will be on hand, including WWE, Impact Wrestling, Mexico’s AAA and CMLL, Lucha Underground, Ring of Honor, and the brand new national American promotion All Elite Wrestling.

WWE star Molly Holly, who is a two-time WWE Women’s Champion and competed recently in WWE’s first-ever all-female pay-per-view event “Evolution” will serve as special guest referee for the Warrior Wrestling Women’s Championship match between Tessa Blanchard and Jordynne Grace. Blanchard is the daughter of pro wrestling legend Tully Blanchard, and both she and Grace are current stars of Impact Wrestling.

WWE star Austin Aries will battle Impact Wrestling star Eddie Edwards in a steel cage match.

The Lucha Brothers (Pentagon and Fenix), the two most-sought after Mexican luchardores in all of wrestling, make their return to Warrior Wrestling in tag team action.

Impact Wrestling Champion Brian Cage will defend the Warrior Wrestling title against Wardlow.
