Earlier this week, the Urban Wrestling Federation (UWF) announced that they will debut their latest event titled “First Blood” on Friday, June 3rd at New York City’s Hammerstein Ballroom.

As part of “First Blood,” various Hip Hop acts and professional wrestlers will face off against one another inside the ring.

“By combining urban music and professional wrestling, we’ve created the ideal opportunity for dynamic and exciting entertainment while opening an avenue that guarantees higher attendance with new marketing and sponsorship opportunities,” said Steve “The Hustler” Karel, the developer of “First Blood,” in a statement.
