Tonight, Live Pro Wrestling paid tribute to New England wrestling legend, Nick Steel with their latest event “Man Of Steel” that took place at the Silver Stone Castle in Swansea, Massachusetts.

We saw two qualifier gauntlet matches to determine who would be the inaugural Man of Steel champion which were won by both Channing Thomas and Ichiban respectively, both going through several other competitors that saw the likes of DJ Powers, Bobby Orlando, and last year’s Man of Steel winner Erik Chacha. Also, the Live Pro Wrestling Tag Team Championships were on the line as The Perfect Strangers took on Shot Through The Heart in a highly competitive matchup.

We also wanted to shoutout New England legend Alex Payne for being the recipient of the 2026 Man of Steel Achievement Award for his contributions to the independent scene of New England. And in your main event, Channing Thomas took on Ichiban in an epic styles clash to crown the first ever Man of Steel champion.
