Bison Smith Documentary

Bison Smith was a professional wrestler who started his career in the San Francisco Bay Area in the late 90's. Although he was not a household name in the United States, Bison made his mark internationally in Japan and Puerto Rico. He unfortunately passed away on November 22nd 2011 at the age of 41 due to heart complications.

We started documenting Bison's career from the very start thru videos, photographs and blog entries and we believe it's time to share his story with the pro wrestling community and family. This documentary will consist of interviews with his immediate family (already filmed) and his pro wrestling peers. We will also feature family home videos, high school and college athletics highlights, matches, past interviews and Bison's own personal camcorder footage from his time at Pro Wrestling NOAH in Japan.

This documentary is a passion project for us with many talented people donating their time and skills. We are looking to raise $4,000 to cover travel expenses in order to ensure we bring Bison's story to life in the most complete way possible. We will be releasing the documentary on our YouTube channel (www.youtube.com/indyhandshake ) for free in April 2022 to share our friend's story with as many people as possible. Every person who donates will receive a THANK YOU credit at the end of the film and for anyone that donates $25 or more, you will receive a Bison Smith Documentary commemorative poster in April 2022 as well).

Thank you for your continued support.
