Joel Katz and IWF's Kevin Knight

We’ve had wrestler Kevin Knight in the Magic 98.3 studio on several occasions to talk about the fun events and charitable work IWF Wrestling has done in New Jersey. They’ve raised nearly $12,000 for the Michael Robert Cammett Jr. Memorial Foundation at live event fundraisers since 2021.

IWF Wrestling Benefit Event Information

Now they’re at it once again with full-throttle family fun as IWF Wrestling is returning to North Arlington, New Jersey for an adrenaline-charged live event on Saturday, September 21, 2024, at 7:00 PM at North Arlington High School.

“IWF: Unstoppable” features world-class athletes locked in intense competition of muscle and power, all to benefit the Michael Robert Cammett Jr. Memorial Foundation.

Leading the path of destruction into the family-friendly extravaganza are Dark Oracle Sage, Master of Chaos Kevin Knight, Hellraiser Dracko, The All-Americans Brian and Robert Atkins, First-Class Justin Adams, East Side Dave McDonald, Supersonic KC Bonilla, Glenn Burgess, American Bulldog Ken Reedy, Aaron Hobbs, Patrick Sanchez, Janko Sons, Rico Gold, Prince Naj and All-Star Michele Dee.

The Memorial Foundation was established in memory of IWF Hall of Famer Golden Boy Michael Cammett, who tragically passed away in June 2021.  Cammett was a 2015 graduate of North Arlington High School and served as captain for Vikings Football, and the indoor and outdoor track and field teams. He also participated in the Vikings Athletic Council, National Honor Society, Students Against Destructive Decisions, Interact Club, and Student Council.

Cammett earned his undergraduate degree from Rutgers University-Newark in 2019 and was posthumously awarded his Doctor of Physical Therapy degree from Rutgers in 2023. He is a former IWF American Champion, Tag Team Champion, Junior-Heavyweight Champion, and has been named Wrestler of the Year three times.

Michael Robert Cammett Jr. Memorial Foundation is a civic member of the Nutley Chamber of Commerce, honoring Michael’s involvement with the chamber and the Greater Nutley Cancer Foundation. The Foundation awards college scholarships to students from North Arlington High School and contributes to charitable organizations in North Jersey.

As IWF Wrestling celebrates its 27th Anniversary on September 21st, fans will witness heated rivalries, high-flying maneuvers, and fierce head-to-head battles for all IWF Championships.  Tickets are affordably priced for the whole family and available for purchase exclusively at CampIWF.com.

IWF Wrestling was founded in 1998 and has hosted over 700 family-friendly live events and fundraisers, featuring WWE Hall of Famers and Legends, across 47 cities in New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, and Connecticut.
