The National Wrestling Allianxe (NWA) and Madame Zuzu’s are partnering together to raise money for the families and victims of the July 4th mass shooting with a series of professional wrestling shows centered around the pay-per-view titled NWA 312.

The events begin at Madame Zuzu’s with a book signing on Thursday, April 6 followed by professional wrestling at Studio One on Friday, April 7 and Saturday, April 8.

The Highland Park Community Foundation is a non-profit organization that supports local programs and initiatives, which includes a special fund for the victims and families impacted by the July 4th shooting.

NWA 312 will feature some of the best wrestlers in the NWA, including NWA World’s Heavyweight Champion Tyrus, NWA National Champion Cyon, NWA Women’s World Champion Kamille and many more.

This neighborhood is my home and I want to do whatever I can to help out,” said NWA President and co-owner of Madame Zuzu’s Billy Corgan. “NWA 312 will showcase some of the best professional wrestling talent in the world, and we hope that fans will come out to support the Highland Park Community Foundation.”

Corgan added, “This event is about helping this community heal after a devastating tragedy. That’s why we chose Studio One as the location for NWA 312. It’s right along the July 4th parade route and that was important to us. I’m from Chicago and we could have had this event anywhere in the city, but I want to make sure the people from the neighborhood get to enjoy the shows.”
