Barstool Sports returns to Wheeling for Rough N’ Rowdy XXV on Friday night

Wheeling, W.Va. (WTRF) – Barstool Sports have arrived once again to the Friendly City for the 25th Rough N’ Rowdy Friday night at WesBanco Arena.

You’ll see 20 fights, a ring girl contest, and the Loser Leaves Town main event.

One Barstool employee will be fighting for his job with his pregnant wife in attendance, with “El Presidente” Dave Portnoy and Big Cat on commentary.

It features fighters from all over, including a few Wheeling locals. You’ll see matchups like Ohio vs Pennsylvania, Clarksburg vs Morgantown and much more.

“I don’t want to say we’re not real boxers, that’s not right, but we are, and we’re not considered amateur but we are kind of off-the-street, backyard brawl-type vibes. These are guys that have maybe never trained a day in their life. Maybe they’ve never actually thrown a punch, but we’re going to find out at the same time. Some of these guys you’ll be able to see who can talk the talk, doesn’t always mean they walk the walk.”

Devlin D’Zmura, Promoter/Marketer for Rough N’ Rowdy

Some tickets are still available, but they tell us they do expect a sell out.

All the action kicks off at 8:00pm Friday night at WesBanco Arena.
