ELK GROVE, CA (MPG) - For the past 25 years, Supreme Pro Wrestling has entertained crowds all over Sacramento. 

Once again, SPW is setting up shop in Elk Grove, bringing their annual anniversary show “One Supreme Night” to Soccer World on Sunday, April 27. 

Joshua Littell, SPW promoter and wrestler known as “Sir Samurai,” said the show is their biggest show of the year and will be longer than their usual cards. The event will have a mini-expo with vendors for fans to rub shoulders with the wrestlers. 

“We have made Soccer World our home and have had our biggest shows there,” Littell said.

Littell started wrestling for SPW in 2002. Early in the promotion’s life, it was known as Sacramento Pro Wrestling but was changed to Supreme Pro Wrestling sometime in 2003 when Sacramento wrestler “Big Ugly” JD Bishop ran the promotion. SPW ran shows out of the Colonial Theater in Sacrament and in 2005, SPW moved from the Colonial Theater to St. Peter’s Hall on McMahon Drive in Sacramento.

In 2018, St. Peter’s Hall was sold and SPW ran a joint show with a lucha libre promotion at Soccer World. It was their first show in Elk Grove, and they have called the city home ever since, Littell said. 

Littell said that the anniversary show is built on the core roster and returns from past wrestlers. He noted that the previous owner Bishop and his son will compete in a triple threat tag team match against tag team champions El Flaco Loco and El Chupacabra, and former TNA wrestler Christina Von Eerie, and Johnny Supreme, best known as former World Wrestling Entertainment wrestler John Morrison.

“When I started in SPW, we were a tiny company nobody had ever heard of,” Littell said. “Now any show in NorCal will feature a wrestler from the SPW Training Academy, and our wrestlers have wrestled in every major company in the world.”

One of the main matches will feature the longest reigning SPW world champion Olumide, who has held the title since October of 2023. He will defend the title against Bobby Callahan, Cheema and Guapo Lupe in a Fatal 4-way elimination match. 

Olumide said he will be ready for the title defense.

“I’m always ready,” Olumide said. “I have beaten these three guys one-on-one before. There’s no reason I can’t beat them all at the same time.”

SPW wrestler Jack Cartwheel said that he started wrestling in 2019 and was a student for the SPW Training Academy. He noted that he traveled to various parts of the world, as he had wrestled in Mexico, done five tours in Japan and did a show in London. Cartwheel said that the crowds vary in different places.

“Every promotion has a different vibe and different things that their fans look for and react to,” Cartwheel said. “When I wrestled in Mexico, many of the fans were excited to be there and had a great time no matter what, but then there were other places where it was hard to get the crowds going depending on the environment.” 

Cartwheel is currently a part of the WWE ID program, which is a developmental system created by WWE to back independent wrestlers who are “chasing their dream and to gain more exposure,” he said. 

Cartwheel will be competing against SPW veteran and current WWE ID talent Timothy Thatcher, who wrestled for WWE’s developmental brand NXT in 2020. 

“Right now, I am focused on my match against Timothy Thatcher, and excited to put on the best performance we can for the anniversary show,” Cartwheel said. “SPW has done so much for me to get to this point that I am excited to give back with the best performance against one of the best in the world.”

SPW’s “One Supreme Night” will be held at Soccer World on 9756 Kent Street on Sunday, April 27. The doors will open at 4 p.m. and the show will officially start at 4:30 p.m.
