Vince’s matches in CCW are legendary. From his long-standing feud and later partnership with Cha Cha Charlie to his battles with The South American Alliance and Vinicious in the early days of Bash At The Brew. There was no one quite like Vince.
Our thoughts are with his family, his friends, and his fans.
Rest In Peace, big man.
