A monthly in depth look at the ECWA performers by Josh Martin

By: Josh Martin
He may be small in stature, but he has the heart of a giant and the tenacity of 10 men. His name is Corey Blaze,
"The Fighting Paramedic". A protégé of the late Boogie Woogie Brown, Corey Blaze gives it his all every time he steps into the squared circle. He is known as a risk taker but it pays off for him most of the time. This exciting performer lights up the arena every time he laces up his boots. Always quick to pose for a picture or to sign an autograph for the fans he is well like by everyone. His paramedic skills have also been a big plus for anyone that has ever been injured in the ring. Corey Blaze is a great guy and up and coming star here in the ECWA. I had the opportunity to pose several questions to Corey. I hope you enjoy
