Flash Flanagan returns with a vengance

Flash Flanagan returned to the U.S. after spending many months terrorizing wrestling fans in Puerto Rico and leaving a trail of twisted bodies and broken bones on the island. One of the first stops in his triumphant return was in Hoosier Pro Wrestling where Flanagan battled with "Zombie" Rob Ramer in a series of ever brutal and bloody matches that highlighted HPW cards for months.

Since beating the life out of "The Zombie" Flanagan returned to his roots in Ohio Valley Wrestling the current training ground for TNA Wrestling and set his sights on Frank Miller, the former Trailer Park Trash who is now the Director of Operations for OVW.

For weeks a masked man stalked and attacked Miller leaving him beaten and befuddled in the ring only to have Flannagan unmask and unceremoniously announce that he had returned to OVW to rid the company of the filth that is Frank Miller and screamed "I hate you" and the now executive.

The two have met in a series of brutal matches that have become the norm for Flanagan and which has seen Miller on the losing end suffering beating after beating. Miller has vowed to retire after one last match with Flanagan even if he were to lose "aw I ain't worried about Flash Flanagan and if he beats me. I have had 20 good years and I have one more good match in me so even if he beats me he is going to know he has been in a fight" Miller lamented.

Flash Flanagan is an example of hard work paying off and how no matter how far you travel you always return home again. Flanagan cut his teeth on wrestling in OVW and battled many a WWE SuperStar when they were training there including an outstanding match against John Cena (wrestling then as The Prototype). Flanagan has held the OVW Heavyweight Championship as well as the OVW Tag Team Championship with a variety of partners and at one time was a top contender for the WWE Light Heavyweight Championship.

"Flash is one of the best natural talents I have ever seen" said HPW promoter Jerry Wilson. "He has the 'it' everyone talks about."

As Flash Flanagan begins his quest to conquer as many promotions and opponents as he can he remains humble, "I am going to kick someones ass" he said.
