This was one of the best shows in Santino Bros. history. The crowd was in to every match they cheered, they jeered and were amazed as each wrestler poured their heart and soul into every bout. You were had to be there in order understand the energy that was in the air. It was the Return of the King and Brody did not disappoint, the man that started his humble career in the small warehouse in Bell Gardens just 1.2 miles away greeted and signed autographs for his all of his fans. In his post match, Brody preached the importance of supporting the independents before he praised the part Santino Bros played in help paving his career. Simply put, it was a magical night.

“Fantastic job put out by the Santino Bros Wrestling Academy talent & crew, they went above & beyond kicking ass last night. Top to bottom from the booking, promoting, set up, tear down, the matches, the hard work, the effort, the vibe this was THE BEST show we’ve ever produced. And none of it is possible without the undying passion and enduring dedication the men and women at the academy put fourth. From the bottom of my heart, much love and respect to you all. ” – Joey Munoz Owner of Santino Bros.

“Last night was simply magical. I have no other words to describe it. Santino Bros Wrestling Academy “Return of the King” was just one of those shows you dream about, but never goes off without a hitch, but last night IT DID!!! From the ring crew of students and alumni, who weren’t booked but still wanted to support. To the fans who showed incredible support and approval for each and every match of the Santino Bros Superstars. But most importantly to the Wrestlers. Without all of your love and hardwork of putting your bodies on the line to entertain the crowds, this night would never have been as special as you made it. This was by far the best show we have ever produced and I can’t thank you enough.

Special Thank You’s to:
Eli Everfly – I know alot of people don’t take you serious, but here in this house, you are irreplaceable! This show would not have been all that it was if not for you – your creativity, your hardwork and endless dedication. I love you Fly, please never change, just keep doing what you are doing.

Brody King – what can I say? From the moment you stepped into the dojo, I knew there was something special about you. Thank you for never forgetting where you started. As you got bigger and better in this biz, you always remembered us. You have always taken the time to mentor the newer students & less experienced alumni and always been there to guide them through. I cannot express how touched I am by your post match speech last night. Nothing but the utmost love and respect for you!

Tyler Bateman – Everyweek you walk through those doors ready to expand the students minds as a trainer. You may not have started with us, but I am forever thankful that the wrestling Gods sent you to us. Thank you for taking the time and energy to be a mentor, big brother and coach.

Cameron Gates – For over 950+ days you were our Submission/ Inner City champ. You held this title with respect, courage and class. Thank you for your awesome dedication, inspiring attitude and never ending smile.

Lucas Riley – Our New Inner City Champion. You came to us years ago with a birthday wish of taking a private training class to being and up and coming Superstar in the ring! I have loved watching your growth in this business. You have made so many of us proud and stand up and take notice. I can’t wait to see where this crazy road will take you next. Congratulations and thank you, I know you will hold this title with pride.

To our O/G’s – Ray Rosas, Rico ReeksTito Escondido, Layla Mariah Moreno & Che Cabrera – we wouldn’t be half of what we are if not for you all. From the backyard beginnings, you have put in the work, shown passion, love and sacrifices for this business. You stood by us even when no one else took us serious, and if not for your hardwork and dedication in the beginning, I don’t know if there would even be a Santino Bros Wrestling like there is today.

To the Heather Romo, Marina Romo & Big Ray Romo – On a personal level, thank you for always being there for me and supporting me & my crazy dreams through thick and thin. And especially for supporting Santino Bros. I love you guys – RomoTrybe4Life! – Love, Thooyee!!Mongol Santino & Jack Fancy – What can I say, you guys help remind me to breathe and remember to stop and say “I love my life, I Love my life, I love my life” Thank you for always stepping up to keep the craziness at bay at the dojo on a weekly basis and at the shows!

and finally to Joey Muñoz – what can I say that has’nt already been said, without you there would never be a Santino Bros Wrestling Academy, there would never be Santino Bros Superstars to book on damn near every show in SoCal, there would never be a mentor and coach that took the time for each and everyone of our students. Thank you for all the long hours, the sacrifices, the stress, sleepless nights and blood sweat and tears that built this house that created many of todays finest wrestlers. I love you.

and to everyone not mentioned above, thank you for the memories, laughter, tears, pride and joy that you all give to us for every training day, for every event and for everyday of being a Santino Bros representative. I love you guys from the bottom of my heart.

and I even had the opportunity to squash some stupid heat with someone who I have missed for 6 years…here’s to new beginnings and 2nd chances!I could’nt find eveyone to tag, so if I am missing you, please no that I include everyone who was there last night.” -Sylvia Munoz owner of Santino Bros.
