Nash to headline Salute to Pro Wrestling Night May 28

The following message has been paid for by the Wings World Order.

On May 27, 1996, Scott Hall appeared on the live episode of TNT’s “Monday Nitro” - sending shockwaves through the pro wrestling industry and the cable television pro wrestling “Monday Night Wars.” Weeks later, Kevin Nash joined Hall - leading to the formation of the New World Order.

The Red Wings will celebrate the 30th anniversary of the New World Order on Thursday, May 28, with two-time WWE Hall of Famer, actor, and podcast host Kevin Nash. The event is presented by AP Plumbing, Chick-fil-A Henrietta, and Wilkins RV.

The night will feature a pre-game photo-op session where fans can meet Nash. He will take part in a special “Pre-Game Live” interview segment on the field, talking about his career with featured clips on the video board before throwing out a ceremonial first pitch.

Gates will open on time at 530 pm regardless of the weather, and the Kevin Nash meet and greet will take place regardless of the weather. Meet and Greet details will be announced at a later date. Nash will sign from 530-615 pm, and again from 705-7:50 pm.
