Greetings fans, I know Ive been incredibly remiss in my duties on here, but my career is unfortunately on a constant start and stop process. But as far as right now is concerned I have another reason.
Last month, just after the turn of the New Year, I lost my biggest fan, my best friend, the love of my live, my wife Brenda. We were only together for less than 7 years and I was hoping for many, many more, but clearly God had other plans. I dont care to go into details, as Ive spoken of it so many times to so many of our close friends, and it doesnt get any easier to speak of. She was only 42.
She truly was my reason for living, my motivation to be a better man, she made my life incalculably better than it was before she came into it. She supported me in my dreams and my goals, she put up with more than a woman should, and she did it with barely a complaint. She always had a smile on her face, and always had a kind word for everyone, never did anyone any harm and certainly didnt deserve this.
She truly was the light of my life. You never know what you have until it is taken from you, and you dont know what it is to be truly alone until you lose the one person that makes you want to never be alone again. My life has been forever altered and it will take the rest of my life to build back. I know Brenda wouldnt want me to give up on my dream, as much as it sometimes caused issues with the late nights on the road for training and shows, but its a slow road to putting my head back in the game. But I know in the end I will be back and whatever it takes, I will be back.

Hey hey hey, fuckers and freaks, Summer is here! Here's a few updates.
Came back to Primos after almost a year away thanks to a back injury and other obligations which Ive gone over before. But my return was interrupted by Aaron Alexander, I blame it on simple jealousy. Whatever makes you feel better and helps you sleep at night I guess. He had his little moment at my expense and I hope he enjoyed it cause Im moving on. This month, Im back in action at Bizzaro!
In ACW news...a few months back, myself and a few others; Caleb Crush, Johnny Zuto and Arik Angel were fired by Quinn Industries for no good reason other than they can do what they please. Well, the tables turned on them, as we decided to band together and a REVOLT was born! First we cost Quinn stooges Jay Synn and Jason Noel their ACW tag titles, and this month we are being allowed back in the ring after Mr Quinn has seen the error of his ways and we will be competing in 8-man tag action against Joshua Todd and whoever is foolish enough to team with him!
Nastly, New Era news, honestly there is none. After reaching out to the powers that be about my deep interest in being a part of New Era once again, even breaking my rule of not attending shows Im not booked at TWICE, nothing has come of it. Honestly Im not really that bothered by it, if that's how New Era feels then so be it, no hard feelings. That just means more energy to devote to the other companies that ARE interested in me.
On a side note, my attempt at doing yet another webshow has fallen through. I try to offer Colorado wrestling as a whole a brand of exposure it doesnt have, yet sadly the interest wasnt there so I am retiring yet another venture to help everyone out, and will go back to focusing on helping myself. So,if you want to see me in action in any form, there's only two places to do it! in less than two weeks you can catch me back to back, June 22 at Primos Hardcore Wrestling Presents: Bizzaro, and ACW Presents: Shattered Dreams featuring the Colorado debut of...GOLDUST! So whether you come to Denver or the Springs, you'll catch Yours Cruelly, representing the Vampire Nation!
Lastly, I am starting a Kickstarter to get my official merchandise line off the ground, as well as legally establish my logo and intellectual property, so keep an eye out for how YOU can contribute to get some awesome stuff!

Hello children...Ive been very lax in my duties here, but when you do it all yourself it can be easy to forget things.
On the personal side of my life, I recently suffered a loss in my family. My grandmother, Elsie Cantafio Zitz, passed away from cancer on February 27. I flew back to Brooklyn that weekend for the funeral. She was 92 and lived quite a life. She was my last living grandparent, her husband passed away before I was born, and my mother's parents when I was still rather young. I do still have memories of them but I didnt understand the concept of death that I do now and have the connection that I did with Elsie. My father told me I was her favorite grandchild, which made her loss even harder on me. She did a lot for me. Her, my aunt and my father let me move in to their house in 2007 when I was on the verge of being thrown out by my friend/ex and living on the streets. I spent a year and a half living with them, which ended up being a great time.
My grandmother was never discouraging of my lifestyle, the clothes, the makeup, even being a wrestler. She got her little ribs in here and there but that's just how she was as is most of that side of my family, there was no malice or cruelty in her words, she just liked to break balls. She loved me regardless and never faltered. Ill carry the memories of that time with her, as well as the countless holidays since I was a child, for the rest of my life. Rest In Peace Grandma.
Ok, now that Ive vented, on to business. The night I flew back to Brooklyn (on a 1am red-eye) I made my return to the ring. In my grandmother's memory I competed at ACW "Revolution" in a 7-man Musical Chairshots (huh?) Match. A little convoluted but a tough match regardless. Some people would come back after an injury in a safer match, but not me. I took on 6 other men, chairs swinging, brawling all over. I was hit with chair after chair, everyone targeting my freshly recovered back. In the end, it took a near-4oo pound man to crush me with a running senton to take me out. It was a tough match, both physically and emotionally, but when it was all over I realized that my body was more than ready. I am at 110% and, besides my body LOOKING less than my best, Ive never felt better!
Unfortunately due to financial constraints, NOW was unable to bring me up last weekend for March Metal Madness. This is understandable and it makes me want to come back to NOW even more, maybe by the time I come back, maybe for Wrestlefest, I will be looking better than ever!
The next ACW show is April 27, and as for New Era and Primos, due to my dayjob I will be unable to attend this weekend's events. I wish I could be there for Jerry Lynn's last match in Denver before he retires this year but I have had the pleasure of meeting and speaking with him and attending one of his seminars in the past so I wish him the best of luck in his retirement and thank him for everything he's done for this business.
There is more to come, stay tuned to my Youtube page and my Facebook for ALL the latest information!

Big news all!
I'M BAAAAAACK!!!!...well I will be anyway. Now that Chad Deity has wrapped and I've had a month to do nothing but rest and let my back heal, Ive started to plan for the new year. Ive been reached out to, and after some brief negotiations I have my first bookings in my calendar for 2013!
First off, I will be returning to Asylum Championship Wrestling in March. ACW is looking to find their next big star, and the powers that be realized the potential of a mostly-untapped commodity, and therefore, on March 2, Yours Cruelly will be competing for a chance at the vacant ACW Championship! ACW is in need of new blood, and I am in need of new GOLD!
Next, on March 8 and 9, The Gothic Superstar is coming back to North Dakota and Northern Outlaw Wrestling! The reception I get when I come to NOW is second to none, and after a long time away, I have a lot to make up for, and when I come to North Dakota, it will be well worth the wait!
On March 30, I will be returning to ACW. Will I be coming in as the NEW ACW Champion? you'll have to buy a ticket and find out then, wont you?
There are a number of other ACW dates set for the coming year which I will name soon enough, but guarantee that I will be at most, if not all, of them to dispense my brand of sex, blood, and rock & roll!
Im sure some of you are wondering, "What about Primos Hardcore Wrestling?" Well your guess is as good as mine. My last few appearances at Primos were met with rather lukewarm receptions, which makes me wonder if Im needed there at all and considering how highly ACW and NOW think of me, its made me wonder where my priorities should lie? Only the future will tell, but I have my first handful of bookings to look forward to, its gonna be a hell of a year, a new year, and a new Ronin!
-November 2, 2012-
Well the year is almost over, its been a looooong time since Ive done anything on this site, and Ive had many reasons; laziness, lack of things to report, unsatisfied with life in general, plus Im pretty sure noone really pays attention to my site. Here's a brief rundown:
-After a very warm and successful return to Primos Hardcore Wrestling early in the year after a year-long absence, I eventually returned to the exact same spot I was in that made me decide to leave, working matches that meant nothing, empty promises and general wasting of my time.
-I suffered a back injury during a show in June, which has been plaguing me since, including aggravating it during production last month (see below), and has been causing me quite a bit of pain, which added to my decision to step away from performing in the ring.
-Thanks to the assistance of Sid Pink, who I worked with on The Honey Cooler last summer (which recently wrapped post-production), I got the gig of a lifetime, as the head trainer and choreographer for the Pulizer Prize-nominated play "The Elaborate Entrance Of Chad Deity," which started production in August, opened in September at Denver's Curious Theatre, then moved to UCCS' Theatreworks in Mid-October, which will wrap next weekend. It has been amazing experience, better than just about any wrestling promotion I've ever worked for, and the pay was substantial. Ill post reviews for the show shortly as soon as I can, I lost all my links when my hard drive crashed.
-On October 24, I was involved in a car accident driving back from Theatreworks. We were hit with sudden snow during the evening, and the wrestler I was riding with lost control of the car, causing us to slide and spin out of control into the path of a semi-truck in the next lane. The semi struck us on my side of the car, smashing in both doors and shattering the window. I wasnt hurt surprisingly, save for a few nicks from glass shards, but the event left me somewhat traumatized. I dont think Ill ever really recover from this, Ill always have a knot in my stomach when Im in a car on snowy or icy roads.
Last but not least, once "Chad Deity" finishes, I have made the decision to take a leave of absence from wrestling. Partially due to my lingering back injury in dire need of rest and healing, partially due to my lack of enthusiasm for performing in Colorado. Ill be honest, after the massive boost in confidence Ive gotten from working on Chad Deity, and epecially after all Ive been paid the last few months, its made me believe that Ive been shortchanged and my talents have been wasted. Maybe its just an inflated ego, but Im normally not so lucky to be afforded opportunities like this, so I think Im allowed to think rather highly of myself after this experience.
Im not giving up on wrestling, but for the time being, its gonna be a while before Im seen in a ring in Colorado again. As far as my out of state contacts are concerned, its a different story, mainly cause when I travel out of state Im guaranteed to be paid which is a big plus. But then again not even that is for sure, best you can do is stay tuned...

Greetings my children. Today I have some mixed news. As of December 5 I am taking a hiatus from wrestling in Colorado. Yes its true, I am taking a break from the ring. My main reason is that over the last few months I have been noticing my matches not being very good, and this is because I am rather out of shape, my stamina is not what it used to be, and having not been able to train, my in-ring performance has not been up to my standards. So I made the decision to take a break from in-ring competition in Colorado for a few months to focus in training and working out and getting back to the condition I was when I first started wrestling in Colorado over two years ago. Im also attempting to upgrade my look with some more professional looking attire, but dont worry Im not abandoning my unique style that sets me apart from everyone else.
For you fans that look forward to my apearances in Northern Outlaw Wrestling, however, have no fear. I had already agreed to appear at NOW's next show in mid January before this all happened. By the time January arrives I know Ill be in better shape than I am now and will give another stellar performance.
For some good news for a change. I am going to be starting a contest very soon. It will be a "logo creation" contest, and the prize will be FREE MERCHANDISE from my brand new line. The two go hand in hand, details, rules, etc, forthcoming!
Lastly, I am unfortunately pushing back the release date of my Best Of Vol. 1 DVD. Ive been so busy with work I have not been able to sit at the computer for the amount of time I need to film the extra footage I need and properly edit it all together with graphics and music and such as I have visualized the end product in my mind. Ive also been unable to purchase all the materials I need due to tight financial constraints. But dont worry my children, the DVD will come. A new year is fast approaching, and with it a new DVD, more new merchandise, and most of all, a new, better, more vicious ME!

Hello my children. I know its been a long time since Ive update this site, you would think that not having a regular job would leave me more free time to work on my site at least. This is not the case, Ive spent most of my time looking for work, cleaning my home...and working on merchandise! After months of talk and speculation, the wait is almost over, and the "Best Of Ronin Volume 1" DVD is well on its way to becoming a reality!
The biggest problem I had was finding someone to do the artwork for the cover, DVD labels and insert. Since no one likes to work for free (the economy sucks loosen your sphincters people), I listened to my own advice that got me into this business in the first place, "you want something done right, do it your damn self!", and jumped on Photoshop and started playing. I have since learned how to use Photoshop and have completed the DVD cover, labels and one side of the DVD insert. I will soon post full info, as well as Pre-sale Options and special offers to coincide with the DVDs release. Ive also updated my promos and retired several of them. My trademark will accompany promos from now on, so those of you that have bought promos from me in the past, consider them first editions and collectors items, especially the ones that I will not be issuing anymore. Check out my Merchandise section for updated info.
IWF Premier ran its last show last month and thus with it the 10 year history of IWF Promotions, sad to see it go but Im grateful for everything Tamera and IWF Prootions has done for me. Primos Hardcore & Wrestling will soldier on as its own company, and we will be having our Second Annual Slave To The Deathmatch this September, go to www.PrimosWrestling.com for information. In related news, I have finally broken my streak of failed championship matches, where on June 16, The Great Raiden became the NEW Primos 303 Division Champion! Also I made my film debut, working as an extra (a wrestler) and choreographer in local feautre film The Honey Cooler, go to http://www.thehoneycooler.com for information, behind the scenes photos, release date and more!
Now on to my upcoming schedule:
--August 21, The Great Raiden will return to Casselmans for Primos Hardcore & Wrestling to defend his 303 Division Championship!
--The Great Raiden will also be making an appearance at Slave To The Deathmatch, whether or not he will compete has yet to be seen
-The Covenant will be returning to Northern Outlaw Wrestling in Minot, North Dakota September 23 and 24, where Ronin and Prodigee will be taking on the new NOW Tag Champions Lt. Macen Mayhem and Cpl. Julio and Penance will be competing in the Vegas 8 Tournament, alongside superstars such as Mike Quackenbush and Arik Cannon! go to www.northernoutlawwrestling.com for information

First things first. Contrary to rumors swirling around I AM NOT RETIRING! Last weekend may not have been the best of my life, if anything it was more a bout of my long ago diagnosed yet un-medicated depression/bi-polar/whatever BS they tried to pin on me back then, with a dash of harsh reality mixed in. Im not leaving the ring anytime soon, and even if I were, Id still be involved in some way. Ill never totally leave this business, Ill be involved until the day it kills me, which it surely will.
Second, I have put up for sale some Ring-Used Gear. They have served my image well in some form or another over the years and in attempt to clear out my closet, I am passing parts of my legacy on to you, the fans. Theyre all listed under Merchandise.
Lastly, more upcoming shows. This Sunday The Great Raiden returns to Primos Hardcore Wrestling, where there will be a pre or mid-show performance by some rapper named Scum. You'll most likely find me hanging at the bar or outside smoking during that, and if you have any respect for your sense of hearing, you'll do the same. Also, June 12, IWF Promotions is celebrating its 10 Year Anniversary show, and I will be celebrating my 2 years as a part of it. And as a part of this momentous occasion, I am making a special, one time offer. Order presale tickets from me, and you will be eligible for FREE merchandise! for every 2 presale tickets you order from me you'll get a FREE signed 8x10 chosen at random, and for those who order a minimum of 10 tickets will recieve a piece of ring-worn gear FREE and signed by me if you wish, item depends on how many tickets you order. Your items will be handed to you when you pick up your tickets from me. This is the only time Ill be practically giving away such important stuff. After this, theres a good chance that Ill just take it all and stick it in my Memorabilia trunk and let it all collect dust, so get it while you can!

And as a part of this momentous occasion, I am making a special, one time offer. Order presale tickets from me, and you will be eligible for FREE merchandise! for every 2 presale tickets you order from me you'll get a FREE signed 8x10 chosen at random, and for those who order a minimum of 10 tickets will recieve a piece of ring-worn gear FREE and signed by me if you wish, item depends on how many tickets you order. Your items will be handed to you when you pick up your tickets from me. This is the only time Ill be practically giving away such important stuff. After this, theres a good chance that Ill just take it all and stick it in my Memorabilia trunk and let it all collect dust, so get it while you can!

Hello my Children. After another long bout of procrastinating, I finally got my website underway. Its not as fancy as Id like, I've never been too good with stuff like this I kick people's asses for a living, but its something. I was hoping to find someone who could make me some graphics, banners, etc but it seems no one's willing to work for free these days (even though I work in a profession notorious for people not getting paid) so I'm stuck with my own amateur web-building skills.
First off, Ive got a lot of ideas in the works, biggest of all is Ive begun work on my Best Of DVD. The plan is for a 2-disc DVD set, with 8 of my favorite matches from my IWF debut in 2009 to the end of 2010. Ive selected the matches, I just need to get some filler footage (in between matches) in the can, as well as a cover and labels for the DVDs.
Second, Im looking for someone who is capable of building me a Wikipedia page. I have all the information you need, as well as pics and whatnot. Anyone interested in helping me build a Wikipedia page, as well as stuff for my DVD, banners, graphics, etc send me a message. I can offer you free promotion on this site along with everywhere else I use them, with the promise of payment in the future once I'm back on my feet job-wise, and anyone who is able to create a cover and labels for my DVD set will receive an autographed copy FREE OF CHARGE!
Last, but certainly not least, my upcoming shows:
*This Sunday, May 1 The Gothic Superstar will be making his return to Oganizacion Mundial Lucha Libre. They are holding a Fundraiser show for a little girl who is losing her eyesight. It will be held at 1150AM radio station at 1582 S Parker Rd, Denver CO 80231. The show starts at 9am, come see a great show as I compete in a 3 Way Dance!
*On May 15 I will be coming back to the Buffalo Rose for IWF Premier Wrestling, as my sister Rose Thorn and I take on Noah Terellah and Jason Noel for a shot at the IWF Tag Team Championship! So come down to the Buffalo Rose at 1117 Washington Ave in Golden, doors open at 5 show starts at 6.
*On May 21, I will be coming to Casselmans (in my alternate personality The Great Raiden) for Primos Hardcore Wrestling. 2630 Walnut St, Denver CO. Doors open at 6 show starts at 7.
