Mr. Chainsaw Pro Wrestling, northern Michigan’s independent wrestling organization, will hold an event called “Battleground X” at the Grand Traverse County Civic Center on July 20. The event will mark the first time that the Kalkaska-based organization has hosted a wrestling showcase in Traverse City. Mr. Chainsaw Pro Wrestling was founded in 2007.
 
Headlining Battleground X is Kevin Nash, a Michigan native and a member of the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) Hall of Fame.

His resume also includes several acting credits, in films such as Magic Mike, The Longest Yard, and John Wick. He will be on hand at Battleground X for a meet and greet with fans.
 
Battleground X will also feature appearances from several other big-time wrestlers, including PCO, Jimmy Jacobs, Flip Kendrick, and Mikey Zeroe. The main event, meanwhile, will be a 15-foot steel cage wrestling match between reigning Mr. Chainsaw Pro Wrestling champion Jack Verville and challenger Jake Omen.
