It’s a concert. It’s a wrestling match. It’s Punk Slam! Spare yourself the dilemma of picking between wrestling and punk rock by attending this annual event Thursday night at the Sacramento State University Union Ballroom. Put on by KSSU.com and Unique Programs, wrestlers from Supreme Pro Wrestling will throw down to a hard-core soundtrack from local punk bands Drastic Actions, Phantom Jets and Bastards of Young. The adrenaline-filled drama will unfold live as wrestlers look to take the Punk Slam belt from current champion Johnny Plinko. Don’t be surprised to see muscular men, spiky leather belts and mohawked mosh-pit dancers, all in one event. If you’re a fan of carnage, or just in need of an action-filled evening, this could be the perfect Thursday-night mash-up.
