My name is Eric Peralta. I'm known in the professional wrestling community as The Wrestling Enthusiast. I created this donation campaign to help save the Southern California professional wrestling scene by creating a wrestling promotion of my own where everyone is welcomed regardless of who they are.

I started this campaign because ever since the synonymous names of Pro Wrestling Guerrilla, Pacific Coast Wrestling Ultra, and AWS Wrestling Promotions have shut down, the pro wrestling scene in Southern California has been in a retooling process as up-and-coming wrestlers based in Southern California are called upon to showcase a wrestling scene that has produced amazing talent and amazing people.

However, the excitement in pro wrestling in SoCal has hit a snag since June 2024 as the excitement dwindled down.

Also, negative publicity has heavily impacted the scene, including the Raja Jackson situation that took place in KnokxPro on August 23rd, 2025, sending pro wrestler Syko Stu to hospitalization with serious injuries.

This was all caused by unprofessionalism, backstage politics, and unqualified promoters.

It has caught negative attention in not just the SoCal wrestling but the entire community as a whole.

Therefore, I have created this fundraiser to help the SoCal wrestling scene to create a welcome space for those that work hard in the region and will benefit the hardworking men and women in the community, all the wrestlers, referees, ring announcers, commentators, and those hard workers that help set up the show altogether.

My shows will not only feature talent from Southern California but also from the East Coast, Midwest, Pacific Northwest, Southeast, Texas, Northern California, and more!

International talent will also be featured as competitors from Canada, Mexico, Japan, the United Kingdom, Australia, China, Southeast Asia, Europe, and more!

At the same time, they will feature the best that Southern California has to offer.

My events will include high-flying, Lucha Libre, Joshi, Strongstyle, and more!

Bigots, racists, and problematic people will not be welcomed at the shows.

Help me save pro wrestling in Southern California.

Your donations will come a long way in helping lots of great people in the community!

Thank you for reading this, and I look forward to accumulating all your donations to create an amazing atmosphere for not just wrestling fans in Southern California but for the people in the community that make professional wrestling amazing!

Sincerely,

Eric Peralta - aka The Wrestling Enthusiast
