On Saturday, May 16, the MJN Center will induct wrestling legend Randy Savage, who made his WWF debut inside this very building, alongside Poughkeepsie native Mike Bell.

The induction ceremony will take place during a live event hosted by Awesome Championship Wrestling, bringing together fans for a night that celebrates both the past and present of professional wrestling.

“This venue has a long and proud history in professional wrestling, and moments like Randy Savage’s debut are a big part of that story,” said Zeidan Nesheiwat, President of the MJN Center. “We are honored to recognize both Randy Savage and Mike Bell for their contributions to the industry and their connection to this building.”

Both inductees left a lasting mark on the sport, and their ties to the Mid-Hudson Civic Center make them natural additions to the Hall of Fame.

Fans are encouraged to join us on May 16 for this special ceremony and an exciting night of professional wrestling action.
