We are honored to have the farewell of arguably the greatest independent wrestler ever. We are letting Hero pick his opponent for EVOLVE 76. Hero will be in a singles match on this event. Hero told us he wants to pick someone who can carry independent wrestling into the future. We’ll have more on this next week.We want to take a moment and thank Chris Hero for everything he has given us in EVOLVE and in independent wrestling. We recently named Hero our 2016 MVP in the EVOLVE 2016 Year In Review Mini-Doc Video. We don’t need to run down his resume. You know it. Simply put, Chris Is Awesome.
