Thanksgiving Day 2009: After everyone else had left, my dad told me he wanted to "talk business" with me. We went into his office, and both sat down.
Dad: Son, there's no need to procrastinate any longer. What I want to do before I decease, is run a promotion, and then when it is my time to go, I will pass it on to you.
Me: When do you want to do that, dad? Because right now, I'm where you were back in the 80's. I'm living the family legacy. I'm over in SNW, I'm a captain in the NWL, not to mention MLW, and all the others who come to me when starting a promotion.
Dad: Exactly. I'm coming to you to be a part of mine. Like you said, they come to you when they want to start one up. I'm sure if you were to call one up with a proposition, they'd oblige.
Me: *Sigh* Perhaps you're right.
Dad: Of course I'm right. I'm always right. I'm a Bockwinkel. Now, get in touch with all the usual suspects, and let me know who you can procure. Don't settle for mediocre, only the upper echelon.
So there you have it, I am now on the hunt for wrestlers for my dad's new promotion, which he's naming Twin Cities Wrestling. Obviously, by the name, it'll run out of the Minneapolis- St. Paul area.

November 30, 2009 As I sat in my office watching the abomination that is Verne Troyer host RAW, amongst the applications that I didn't go through over the long weekend, I look them over and get excited over a few names that I see, and a few others that I'm willing to try and make a big name of.
I give my dad a call, and as always, it takes forever for him to answer.
Dad: Bockwinkel estate, Nick speaking.
Me: Dad, it's me. I'm sitting in my office looking at applications for this company you want to start.
Dad: Great, tell me who they are, and let me know what you think of them.
Me: Alright. First there's Kevin Hart , a supposed member of the Hart Family. He's been on a quick rise in every promotion he's been in, basically reminds me a little of myself.
X Jack - An awesome high flyer from the West Coast. The fans seem to gravitate to him, no matter where he goes.
Leon Shannon - all the way from New Zealand, he's young, but he's pretty big. Says here he uses the Curb Stomp as a finisher.
Donnie East - Another newcomer on a meteoric rise. His work in the ring should prove to the world why I picked him to spearhead my "Far East Initiative" in NWL.
Next up is Red Dragon , he and I have some history going all the way back to my wrestling debut. Seems he'll be coming with out his mask.
Ace Bennett - At only 19, the best words I can use to describe him is "simply amazing". I feel he's another one that's going to be the future in this business
Lee Kineval - Which if I remember correctly, is Dragon's brother, but he is nothing like him. I have a feeling if we use him well, he could be a top star.
and then of course me.
Dad: Eight over the weekend isn't bad.
Me: Not at all.
Dad: But not nearly enough to start yet. Keep reeling them in and keep me updated.
Me: Yes sir. I gotta go dad, I'm getting another call. *Switches over* Hello?
Other line: Bock! Saw your old man is starting a promotion.
Me: Yea, who's this though?
Other line: Most people just call me "Champ", but I guess you can make the checks out to "Evan Pagano".
( I can basically hear him wink)
Me: Alright, you're on. Talk to Curtis for me.
Pagano: Will do. Later.
Me: Bye

December 6, 2009 After I had gotten a few more applications, I went over to my dad's house and showed him what I had aquired
M.L. Matthews - Don't know too much about this guy, but what I do know is that I'd love to see his finisher
Duan Sanchez Jr.- Seems like I already have a rival
Shawn Connor- Another one I don't know much about, but I like that name, I can think of a few things to do with him.
"The Steel City Saint" Matt Daniels - Every promotion needs a dark character, right?
Cody Rejero- I've seen this guy in so many promotions, and one word I can come up with to describe him is "underrated".
Nick Jacobs - What can I say, I keep my friends close and my enemies closer.
Richie Stevens & Kaci Montgomery- I love watching these two. They've been best friends since the playground.
He said that he likes how well its devloping, but is holding out for some more of the big names before we start.

Kind of sucks that neither Ace or Donnie aren't on the first show. Hopefully they will start to get involved. Really looking forward to the first show regardless.
