For those who feel that television wrestling has become too sanitized, corporatized in recent years, look no further than the Underground Wrestling Alliance, the long-established hometown heroes of professional wrestling. Marked by wanton violence, absurd humor and general revelry, UGWA has been shocking and entertaining wrestling fans for years, and this week’s event is no exception. This Saturday, UGWA is celebrating one of its main characters’ 40th birthday in a special wrestling event called Slash-A-Palooza.
