Cannibals, Russians, Vampires & Legends... all teaming with The Wiseguy!!
Brother it is good to be back on JimmyCiceroWrestling.com..... It's been an interesting few months!!!
I've made appearances on ABC TV in Washington DC as well as CBS in the Philly region. Additionally I've teamed with WWE Legend Kamala the Ugandan Giant, WWE Legend Nikolai Volkoff, WWE Legend Superfly Jimmy Snuka and former WWE Superstar Kevin Thorn. These 4 have proven to be heroes in the name of Autism Awareness!! I enjoyed wrestling alongside each of them, but more so it was an honor &privilege for my wife and I to stand side by side these superstars as we raised awareness for Autism!!!
I also need to thank my friend Dan Murphy of Pro Wrestling Illustrated for his fantastic article on Windra and my mission to BODYSLAM AUTISM!!! A terrific article written by a good friend!!
Thanks are also in order to my friend Jerry Moore of Monster Madhouse. Recently WWE Legend, Nikolai Volkoff and I were guest stars on his TV program and we had a blast! I also got a great opportunity to speak on Autism Awareness!!
Kudos to my wife for her unending support in our BODYSLAM AUTISM mission! Additionally Windra has worked with Pampered Chef to raise even more support for Autism Speaks.. Way to go Windra!!
Finally, I need to thank all of the terrific fans... you all have really made a difference! As we move forward in 2010 I am confident that my BODYSLAM AUTISM mission will only get stronger and continue to gain momentum!
I'll be back with a new update on April 29th... until then Thank You & God Bless!!!

2010...My New Year Resolution!!
My friends,
2009 has been a challenging year. My wife Windra and I received the diagnosis that both of our sons are Autistic. WOW! Our hearts broke and we felt helpless. Then we snapped back into it...we did not have the luxury to feel sorry for ourselves. We had two young boys who needed guidance, direction and most of all ...mommy & daddy!
Thanks to our physician Dr Chambers and Nicholas' teachers we are on the right track! Autism robbed Nicholas of his speech, however word by precious word he is working hard to regain that speech!
Additionally we made the decision t reach out to other parents like us...to raise Autism awareness...how? through Pro Wrestling! I have 18 years in this sport and I have made numerous friends and contacts...what better platform to raise awareness for Autism than the built-in platform that I have with Pro Wrestling.
In 2010 I am pleased to say that I will be working closely with Autism Speaks, The Matthews Center and UNO's Chicago Grill to continue my mission. My 2010 resolution is to help Nicholas double his vocabulary...My second 2010 resolution is to BODYSLAM AUTISM. What exactly do I mean when I say BODYSLAM AUTISM?? ...Raise awareness, let people know what autism is and urge everyone to get involved. Like I've said...my family will NOT be defeated by Autism and if I can help it...nobody's family will either. I want everyone to join my team and united we can fight & ultimately defeat Autism!!
Have a Safe & Happy New year my friends! God Bless! -Jimmy Cicero

NWA Continental heavyweight Champion...at 40
Hello friends...It's been quite a week. I'll start off with the wrestling news and then move over to an update on our mission...to BODYSLAM AUTISM!
* I finally received my long awaited title match with NWA Continental Heavyweight Champion "Big Time" Mike Booth. Now Booth is a machine...8 years younger than me and he can wrestle, fight and trash talk with the best of them...oh & he had not been pinned in 2 years! ....Notice I said "had"...With the total support of the NWA fans I had probably the best (& toughest) match in the last 15 years...& yes I pinned "Big Time" for the title! ...NWA Continental Heavyweight Champion WISEGUY JIMMY CICERO...has a nice ring to it!!
* How did I feel the next day? Great mentally ...and like I get run over by a truck physically! Like I said...Booth is very tough....and...I'm 40 (almost 41...birthday is in 2 weeks). I go to m gym 4-5 times a week just so I can keep up with today's young stars. Fast forward a couple of days later and I feel just fine...even at 40 I can still teach the young guys a lesson or two in the squared circle!
* Good News...Windra & I are planning on running a show in counjunction with The Matthews Ctr in our home town of Manassas VA. The Matthews Ctr works with autistic children and teens and is a terrific place! We are very proud to work hand-in-hand with such an awesome place! The show will be in April 2010 and proceeds will go to The Matthews Ctr. ....more details forthcoming!
* I just received word that I'll be following up my CBS interview with an interview on NBC slated to be televised on December 30th... Another opportunity to BODYSLAM AUTISM!!
Hope you all have a great week! God Bless...Your friend Jimmy!
