Earlier this week, former Smashing Pumpkins frontman Billy Corgan announced via Twitter that he has officially parted ways with Chicago-area independent wrestling promotion RESISTANCE-Pro. Corgan served as Creative Director for the promotion since 2011 and made a number of appearances at R-Pro events.<\/p>\n
“For those interested, I’ve left RESISTANCE PRO WRESTLING, officially and unofficially. Details to follow in the coming weeks”<\/p>\n
Corgan sent out a follow-up tweet shortly thereafter, informally addressing those who he’d worked with during his time at R-Pro:<\/p>\n
“And though this is by no means a way to reach them, I’d like to thank the talented wrestlers, managers, and valets I’ve worked with”<\/p>\n
In early 2014, AMC formally announced its intention to air a reality series based on the promotion. RESISTANCE-Pro Co-owner Gabriel Baron spoke exclusively to WrestlingINC.com regarding the AMC deal in May and that entire interview is archived here<\/a>. The show was scrapped by AMC in October.<\/p>\n Both Corgan and RESISTANCE-Pro have indicated they will provide more details regarding their parting of ways at some point in the near future. RESISTANCE-Pro’s next show is scheduled for January 15, 2015 in Merrionette Park, Illinois. More information on that show will be provided through the promotion’s official site<\/a>.<\/p>\n [spacer height=”20px”]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Billy Corgan Announces Departure From Independent Wrestling Promotion<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":15040,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[47],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-15039","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15039","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15039"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15039\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":15041,"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15039\/revisions\/15041"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/15040"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15039"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15039"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15039"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
