It is with deep sadness to announce that longtime Michigan wrestling announcer, Ron “Showtime” Stewart, who had up to recently worked with IWR Wrestling and REVOLUCHA, passed away last night.

In the mid-90’s Ron began as a Michigan wrestling hotline host alongside Sir Robert Hanley hosting the Pro Wrestling Revolution hotline and later team up with Josh Movado, Bubba Mackenzie and “Maniac” George Morbid to create the original version of the Independent Wrestling Revolution in suburban Detroit.

Memories and photos can be found and posted on Ron’s Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/#!/Rshowtime

Our thoughts and condolences go out to the Stewart family in their time of mourning.
