Uplifting Charity Event Kicking Off 2025

Mark your calendars because on January 1, 2025, AEW Dynamite: Fight for the Fallen is set to dazzle fans live from Asheville!

But that’s not all! Charlotte is also home to ASÉ Wrestling, a black-owned promotion that’s making waves by launching its own episodic series on YouTube starting January 9. This exciting new series is expected to showcase local talent and elevate the city’s wrestling scene.

Private Party Celebrates a Decade of Success

Turning the spotlight onto the ring, the championship duo known as Private Party begins their 2025 title reign! Isiah Kassidy, a Charlotte local, and Marq Quen, hailing from Brooklyn, have made a significant mark in the world of wrestling since signing with AEW five years ago. Surpassing the odds, these dynamic athletes recently claimed the tag-team titles from the legendary Young Bucks during a spooktacular episode of “Dynamite” on Halloween after the Bucks held onto the title for an impressive six months.

After their monumental victory, which the duo considers a validation of their struggles, including Quen’s battle with a torn pectoral muscle, Private Party defended their championship titles against three formidable teams during Full Gear’s pay-per-view event. Their unique style and determination have Kassidy set on a mission to refresh AEW’s tag division, with hopes of leading the charge in the coming weeks. They’re even set to challenge the newly formed team of Lio Rush and Action Andretti soon, igniting a thrilling matchup that fans should keep their eyes peeled for.

Big Dreams for Charlotte Flair
