04/22/2007: Chad Malenko
Many of you may have noticed the new banner on my website that now
reads OFFICIAL WEBSITE OF CHAD MALENKO. Anybody can visit the site
now by either going to www.chadcollyer.com or www.chadmalenko.com From
now on I will not perform in a professional wrestling environment as
Chad Collyer, but will now use the Malenko name that was passed down
to me and wrestle as Chad Malenko. In 2004, when I was booked to
wrestle for New Japan, my teacher Dean Malenko, passed down the name
to me to use only in Japan. This past month I had the opportunity to
return to Japan and wrestle for the Zero One MAX and Muga-World Pro
Wrestling promotions as Chad Malenko, and hope to continue to work for
one or both promotions more regularly under the Malenko name. I will
continue to only use the name in Japan where the name has a rich
tradition of superb technical wrestling. I want to say it is an honor
to be able to use the Malenko name. The name represents actual
wrestling in a business where "character"and long winded promos seem
to dominate this era. I hope I can represent the Malenko name well by
giving outstanding wrestling performances every night I step into the
ring in Japan.
I will not wrestle anymore in the USA or any other country under my
own name or the Malenko name. I have other plans I want to do right
now in the states such as help coach my local high school wrestling
team. I also plan to do more personal training, which I will have more
info on my website very soon. I've been wanting to get back into
submission grappling as well. I started doing this two years ago and
had to take sometime off from it when I tore my bicep tendon a year
ago. Now that I'm back to full strength, I plan to return to doing
more of this style of wrestling.
Since I've decided to use the Malenko name, I have decided to release
some new Chad Malenko merchandise!
Please check out my MERCHANDISE section for the new MALENKO WRESTLING
ringer T-shirt.
I also have a new DVD available as well. It will be called Best of
Chad Malenko Volume 1 with matches against the likes of The Great Sasuke, Jardi Frantz, Shark Boy, Minoru Fujita, Race Steele,Kaz Hayashi, Jinsei Shinzaki, Donovan Morgan, Jamie Noble, Michael Modest, James Mason, and Dean Malenko!!
You can purchase the DVD and T-shirt on my website. If you purchase
both I will throw in a FREE autograph picture, and throw in FREE
shipping as well.
I am interested in hearing all your thoughts. Please respond on the
comment board on my website.
Have a great day!
Chad Malenko

VS.
Chad Malenko faces the legendary Gran Hamada in Tokyo's Korakuen Hall this Thursday, April 11 for the Muga-World Pro Wrestling Promotion. Hamada and Malenko fought this past Saturday in Shizuoka which saw Hamada get disqualified for hitting the referee with a steel chair. This coming after Collyer repeatedly struck Hamada with a chair outside of the ring. Hamada went to get his revenge on Malenko when the referee tried grabbing the chair from Hamada resulting in him getting smacked with the chair. The referee disqualified an angry Hamada, who challenged Malenko in a match at Korakuen Hall.
This will be the last match of Chad's tour. The tour has been very successful for Chad, and hopefully there will be more dates added to Chad's schedule very soon for the Zero-One Max and MUGA promotions.

Chad attended fitness guru, and "Zen Master of the Internet" Matt Furey's "Secret of Secrets" Fitness Seminar at the Tampa Airport Marriott on Feb.1-3.
Chad learned many new secrets to advance his physical fitness level for the year 2007 and beyond. He plans on implementing new stretches, breathing exercises to improve his organs, joint loosening exercies, and psycho-cybernetics techniques to become his very best in 2007.
Chad still plans to take more time off from pro wrestling in 2007 to focus on other areas in his life, such as his new personal training business which will be featured soon on this website.

01/01/2007: Collyer begins 2007 with HWA TV; many changes to be made with Chad's style
Chad will begin his 2007 wrestling schedule on January 9 at the HWA Arena for an Adrenaline TV taping. His opponent(s) are still to be announced. Chad plans on cutting back on his independent wrestling schedule in 2007 and concentrate more on International Pro wrestling in Europe, Japan, and Mexico. Collyer has also expressed interest into returning to competitive wrestling by training/competing in the submission grappling arts.
Chad feels 99% of independent wrestling is 'backyard' style, and that WWE seems to be more interested in actors than pure wrestlers; therefore, Collyer will mostly concentrate on HWA and a few various independents along with his international wrestling and grappling schedules.
Chad also has some big news coming up about a protege of his about to break into the pro wrestling business very soon as well. More on this soon!

09/18/2006: Collyer Writes First Blog on 2006 European Tour Blog #1: September 17, 2006: Summer European Tour 2006
Well this is my first blog I am writing to be put on my official website, and to be sent out to my Blog subscribers! I think the topic of my first blog should be about my summer long European wrestling tour, especially since I have not had many matches since coming home last month. I was extremely busy all summer with wrestling, usually wrestling somewhere between 7-9 matches a week, and normally spending about 8 hours a day crammed up in a van going to the holiday camp shows that I did from Monday thru Friday. The holiday camp show were for All Star Promotions, the biggest and best wrestling promotin in Great Britain. Then on the weekends, I flew on an airplane to countries in Europe to wrestle on other promotions shows. Countries I wrestled in this summer were France, Ireland, Germany, Austria, Italy, and England.
I started the tour on May 2 at the holiday camp in Minehead, England. The first story I heard from wrestlers Mikey Whipwreck and Kid Cool was about the bed I would be sleeping in back at the digs where I would be based out of in Birkenhead, which is across the Mersey River from Liverpool. Apparently the filthy Canadian wrestler that had been sleeping in my bed went out for Robbie Brookside's birthday a few weeks back and got really sloppy drunk by trying to be a tough guy while drinking a bottle of very hard liquor. In addition to the liquor, he was also pilled up which made matters much worst. Well when he got back to the digs that night, he went upstairs to pass out in what would soon be my bed. Well before falling asleep he realized he had to go take a dump, so he got up out of bed and went into the bathroom, grabbed the toilet paper roll and walked back to the bedroom. This guy was so wankered that he walked back into the bedroom, sat on a wooden chair and took a dump on it. Then without wiping his bum, he fell into the bed and passed out. The next morning wrestler James Mason walked into the bedroom to the horrible scene of the Canadian covered in poo. There was also shite on the ground, wall, and a big, dripping mound of it on the wooden chair. I heard poor James about had a heart attack and has yet to walk back into the bedroom. The humiliated Canadian did clean up the room, and went back home to Canada shortly thereafter. Needless to say, I didn't sleep in the bed.
I had a blast wrestling on the camp shows during the whole summer, and I should say my best matches came at these camps because the fans were absolutely electric. The shows that I did for the other indy shows were mostly fans that never leave their computers all day, and just lay around watching wrestling tapes, then come to the shows and think they're cool by chanting these corny lines. Those shows are never very fun, so I much prefer the shows that normal people come to enjoy themselves at. The best show I did all summer was on August 5 in Steinhude, Germany for the European Wrestling Promotion (EWP). They are by far the most professional of all wrestling organizations I work for and I always have a blast doing their shows. The previous tour I did back in October 2005 I also worked for EWP and had an awesome time there as well, along with a great 11 round Championship match against Robbie Brookside. On this occasion, I wrestled Doug Williams who may be the best British wrestler today, and maybe even the best Gaijin (foreign) wrestler in Japan. The show was an outdoor show right next to this huge lake, and sure enough it had to rain for several hours before Doug and I stepped into the ring. The ring was very slippery and hard to get good fitting but Doug and I still were able to pull off a great 20 minute match for the fans in Steinhude. I hope to return for EWP next month for the promotions annual 10 day tournament in Hanover, Germany.
My tour finished up on August 15 after doing a week of holiday camps and two Ring of Honor shows. Unfortunately right before I was to return to the USA, Al Quida had a plot to destroy planes flying from London to the USA by using explosives found in sport drinks activated by a device such as an iPod. The security in the airports were extremely tight, as well as it should have been. Amazing that there were people actually complaining about it! This one twat that was on my flight thought it was absolutely ridiculous to get searched before boarding the plane after he already went through security. I made it back to the USA with no problems whatsoever.
The best matches I had in Europe were with true professionals which you really don't see too much today on the independent scene. I credit those matches to be against James Mason, Robbie Brookside, Jody Fleisch, Ares, Doug Williams, Mikey Whiplash, Kid Cool, and Robbie Dynamite. Hopefully I will return to the UK for All Star Promotions in 2007.
There are some new additions coming to my official site very soon that I am very excited about. There will be a new products page that will have more than just my Best of 2005 DVD. There will be workout bands that I used while I was in Europe, workout books, protein bars and many other fitness related equipment. I will talk about this more in a future blog of mine.
Thanks for reading my first blog, and hopefully I will have more out soon!

Last night at the HWA TV tapings in Cincinnati,Ohio Collyer defeated Jon Moxley for his third HWA Heavyweight title. The win came after Chad countered Moxley's swinging Rock Bottom with an STO takedown into his Yankee Rose submission hold. Moxley tapped out to the hold in 19:30 of the match as the crowd went wild for Collyer's win. Collyer is excited about winning the title again and looks forward to defending it every week at the HWA events.
