TNA have announced one of the standout stars of Hulk Hogan's Celebrity Championship Wrestling will make his pro-wrestling debut at their Lockdown PPV.

'Dangerous' Danny Bonaduce – the former wise-cracking young star of the hit US show The Partidge Family – will battle an as yet unnamed opponent in the six sides of steel, at the event on April 19th.

This match follows an open challenge made by Main Event Mafia leader Kurt Angle on Bonaduce's hit radio show.

Angle pleaded for a CCW wrestler to face him at Lockdown (hinting he'd love to battle Dennis Rodman), and if nobody answered his challenge, Bonaduce would have to enter the ring against a surprise star.

Expect the name of that person to be announced on TNA TV soon and to see clips of the on-air contract signing from Bonaduce's radio show.

Friday's plan is to let all the talk hosts sign off live one last time – Adam Carolla, Heidi, Frosty & Frank, Danny Bonaduce and Leykis. FM talk targeted men; AMP Radio music is to be "family friendly," said Dan Weiner, senior vice president of CBS Radio, Los Angeles. He believes the format will "connect with a wide audience – moms, their kids, single folks, men and women alike." The first 28 days or so will be continuous 10,000 hits. No personalities have been named yet.

Many wonder about the reason for the change. There are two answers. One is the L.A. radio market. CBS believes because its JACK and KROQ stations target males, there is room for a station to take on KIIS, KOST, and KBIG and target women and families.

.Net was there ringside and in Danny's corner at Fight night. (Special thanks to Danny, Amy and Damon Feldman promoter). Besides the numerous local matches the crowd of over 1,500 crammed into the Iceworks arena to see Danny vs. Jose. It was standing room only and packed with celebrities. Seems like even the Associated Press (AP) was fooled by Jose's tattoo shirt, they are reporting he had real tats. We can be the first to report it was just a skin colored shirt with tattoo designs.

Danny took on the 6 foot 4 Jose, in the Samson versus Goliath match of the year. Danny absorbed many blows from Jose but stood right in there with him the entire time, never backing down. Danny had some really good shots at Jose in rounds 1 & 2. Jose had his best shots in rounds 1 & 3. But " Boom Boom Bonaduce" never went down. The match was declared a draw after 3 rounds setting up what could be a great rematch.

Danny Bonaduce has been a renowned name in both radio and television since the 1970s, when he rose to fame at the age of 10 on The Partridge Family. After a period of well-documented drug problems and even homelessness, Bonaduce resurrected his career in the 1980s by becoming a successful radio personality. His gravelly voice, sense of humor and frank personality led him to his first radio job at Top 40 WEGX (Eagle 106)/ Philadelphia and eventually brought him to stations in Chicago, Detroit, New York and Los Angeles.
