Images From Adam Pearce's Final Indy Wrestling Appearance, Holiday Weekend Indy Events
- As noted earlier, former NWA Champion Adam Pearce announced his retirement at a Championship Wrestling from Hollywood TV taping last weekend. There has been speculation that Pearce signed with WWE, where he has worked with talents at the Performance Center. Pearce's friend, Shane Kidder, posted the video above containing photos from Pearce's final independent wrestling appearance, where he faced Colt Cabana. Pearce commented on the video on his Facebook, writing:
"I am absolutely BLOWN AWAY by the artistic talent of my dear friend, Shane Kidder. He was kind enough to chronicle in images my final day on the independent wrestling circuit, and those images have been set to one of my favorite songs. I won't lie, I cried like a baby when I first saw these pictures, now cherished memories preserved by one of the best people I've had the pleasure to know. I hope you enjoy these as much as I do. My gratitude forever, Shanesphotos."
