Aden Chambers Wishes Ace Darling Well

Mike Tobin hit the nail on the head friends. Ace Darling is a once in a lifetime performer and person. It is unheard of for someone like him to extend the olive branch of friendship and knowledge to so many people. To be privileged enough to get to know Ace on a one on one basis is just awesome, and to learn from him is an honor because you are going to get the honest truth which in life today is hard to receive about anything. Ace is a genuinely great human being and I cannot praise him enough for the good he has done for myself and my peers.

Jim Kettner got himself a diamond in the rough when Ace Darling came to his organization (I know you like that pun Ace). We should all strive to be able to pattern our career's after his, one can only hope to get a send off like his... but we all know with this business, Never Say Never.

Thank You Ace Darling

I want to say a few words about the retirement of Ace Darling. For the past 17 years Ace has set the standard for all of us who tried to follow him. His track record for having some of the most memorable matches we have ever seen is a mile long. I can spend all day talking about his accomplishments. So can he (just kidding). What I want to talk about is the guy who for the past few years did what most people in our business don't. HE GAVE BACK!! The man did it all in the ECWA and spent many years giving back to the company that he took to another level. Every one of us in that locker room owe him a debt of gratitude. He was always there to offer advice, help you out and if you had the privilege to wrestle him you know you left the ring that night a better wrestler. Just take a look at this year’s Super 8 lineup. Ask Aden Chambers and Chase Del Monte how much being mentored by and wrestling Ace made them better over the years. What I am trying to say is THANK YOU!

Veterans like Ace, Glen Osborne, and all the other people who have passed through the ECWA the last 41 years coming back to help the young talent evolve have made ECWA one of the most respected promotions in the history of wrestling.

I can say that getting to know Ace for the past five years has been a true honor. Any time you wanted real advice, feedback or a good Vince McMahon impersonation Ace Darling was the man. A true locker room leader and a true friend. This last few months being away from the ECWA injured it was conversations with Ace and his words that made that time a lot easier. So to the man who put the Super 8 on the map I want to say Thank You!

I think I speak for the entire ECWA roster when I say you will be missed and when you get tired of being a civilian and want to lace them up one more time we will be waiting!!!

Good Luck and God Bless!

Your Friend,
Mike Tobin
