The story of one of the most controversial pro wrestling company’s in the country. Watch as they grew from their meager beginnings out of a dilapidated warehouse in the ghetto of Oakland California. To an award winning theatrical production that plays to sold out crowds.
LA Times visited Hoodslam last month for “80s for the Ladies” and wrote a great article about the accidental phenomenon.
Once a year 8 competitors compete in a one night single elimination tournament. The winner gains superiority over all that fell before her/him, but is also granted the opportunity to challenge for The Best Athlete in the Bay Award.
Hoodslam returns to the Oakland Metro Operahouse next Friday night, December 5 for the annual #HoodfighterTournament!
Thank you to everyone who help make Hoodslam: The Opera such an amazing and innovating event. Also, thanks to orchestra and singers performing in the Oakland Opera, the staff of the Oakland Metro Operahouse, as well as the dancers, costume, and scenic designers.
A first in the history of history, Hoodslam gets classy as fuck! You may have thought, “But it’s not going to be an opera REALLY right?” Wrong bitches! Check out some highlights from night one and then bring your whiskey money to the Oakland Metro for tonight.
There’s a lot about this performance that isn’t exactly by-the-book. This is not your ordinary, traditional opera. Oh, no, bro. This is hoodslam & oakland opera present: HOODSLAM the opera. The most talented performers from the Oakland Opera will portray a menagerie of Hoodslam characters, and as the story escalates, the actual Hoodslammers will step into the ring and fuck the fans as only they can.
I’m pretty sure this is the first event of its kind, anywhere, in the history of ever. I hope you’re there tonight and Sunday night to see it.
This is Opera. This is Hoodslam.
