Here is your Pro Wrestling News Report for April 9, 2025. Running Time: 49 Minutes.
Note from DT: Originally I had no desire to do this news update. But you will hear within the first 15 minutes why I changed my mind. No matter what was going on, Kev always did everything he could for the show to go on. Even in his final hour, he was thinking about Monday's DTKC Show and all of you. I legit heard Kev Castle in my heart yelling at me to get off my ass and do this for everyone. He always did.

- More on the passing of our fallen friend Kevin Castle, the amazing tributes pouring in for Kev, The DTKC Family going forward, and a heartfelt thank you to everyone
