Wow! What a line up for prestige! Get yourself to edgewood for FWA!

TRIPLE THREAT: ELI ISOM vs. BREAUX KELLER vs. LSG @ FWA: PRESTIGE

✨ This is a real "a picture makes a thousand promises" situation, because just look at this match! Three of THE top talents in the Mid Atlantic, all in their physical prime, all at the top of their mental game, all vying for an opportunity at that top spot. These are three men who are going to go hard, and we can't wait to host it!

♾️ "Infinite" ELI ISOM: the hottest, fastest rising star in the FWA. A peak athlete looking to put "potential" behind him, and ascend to the heights he's spent years chasing.

🔋 "All Energy" BREAUX KELLER: a man who has put companies on his back before, and is looking to do so again. A father dedicated to setting an example for his children that hard work, dedication, and positivity pay off in the end.

☄ "The Ace of Space" LSG: tired of waiting for others to recognize his greatness, The Reaver of wrestling now takes what he wants, when he wants it. A gifted talent who is unashamed to take shortcuts to rise high above the rest. And of course, accompanied by the undefeated AVA EVERETT, the Y2Cutie herself.

Victory: They all want it. Only one can have it.
🚨 Sound the banger alert.

Also Announced:
✨ FWA Championship: KRIS BISHOP vs. JARETT DIAZ
✨ "Wonderboy" BRIAN MORRIS vs. "Primetime" CHRISTIAN DARLING
✨ Tag Team War: THE RAPTURE vs. THE REP

Greetings, Friends & Fans!

As many of you know, The State Theater wrapped up operations at our Havre de Grace location this past July — but we’re far from finished! We’re still dedicated to bringing you the same explosive, one-of-a-kind live entertainment you’ve come to love.

While we are not connected to the new operators at our former venue, The State team has been busy behind the scenes — regrouping, scouting new and alternative spaces, and planning the next wave of programming: from independent wrestling and drag performances to the best regional music acts.

Stay tuned here and on social media for updates on what’s next.

Cheers for now!

It has been an absolutely wild last few days to say the least. We never imagined the amount of love and loyalty from our community for the space we have built here - and with so much of your help and creativity along the way.

Tuesday night - barely 24hrs after the overwhelming show of support for our cause at the City Council meeting - we received another major gut punch. For reasons beyond our control, The State Theater will not be able to reopen as hoped. Although this final blow is not even related to the sprinkler system or permits we’ve been discussing over the last week, what we do know…has only added to our suspicions of how business is really done in this City. For now, we will simply say that future of the building that once housed The State Theater is now in the hands of our landlord and whatever chapter comes next with the City of Havre de Grace.

In the light of this development, we have refunded everyone’s donations. Donations received through GoFundMe will take 7-10 days to process; cash donations received at last FWA’s show will be refunded as credit to a future show. We’ll be taking August off to pivot, but please follow Federated Wrestling Alliance on social media for more details, and reach out to us for the promo code to redeem your discount.

It’s still hard to believe that together, we were able to raise over $35K in less than **five days** because of all of YOU. We will never adequately be able to express our gratitude to everyone who contributed, shared our story, or just believed in us.

This is so far from how we wanted things to turn out. Please do not feel like your efforts were wasted, although it’s certainly easy to feel that way right now. Trust us: we’re feeling it, too. But please hold onto the friends that you met through this place. Continue to support live music and the local arts scene, in Maryland and anywhere else you travel. This might be the end of our story, but there are dozens more like us out there fighting for the same things.

We expect more details will come out over the next few months. In the meantime, we’ll be taking some time together as a family to regroup and figure out our own next chapter.

Thank you…for everything.

With Love,
The Noe Family

Sun article about the council meeting by Matt Hubbard. Well written and shows how much love this community has for the State.
