BSE Pro (formerly Blood Sweat and Ears or BSE Wrestling) was a Canadian independent professional wrestling organization, founded in 2005. It held 10-12 events a year in the Greater Toronto Area, as well as quarterly tours to Northern Ontario cities such as Timmins, Sudbury, Iroquois Falls, Kirkland Lake and North Bay.{{Cite web|url=http://slam.canoe.com/Slam/Wrestling/2008/12/19/7809111.html|archive-url=https://archive.today/20180815184005/http://slam.canoe.com/Slam/Wrestling/2008/12/19/7809111.html|url-status=dead|archive-date=August 15, 2018|title=BSE Pro runs hot shows in cold Iqaluit|website=canoe.com}} It evolved into Maximum Pro Wrestling after it merged with fellow Canadian promotion Border City Wrestling in 2010.{{Cite web|url=https://www.bramptonguardian.com/community-story/3074208-pro-wrestling-back-in-brampton/|title=Pro wrestling back in Brampton|date=April 15, 2010|website=BramptonGuardian.com}}{{Cite web|url=https://www.durhamregion.com/community-story/3150466-wrestling-forces-unite/|title=Wrestling forces unite|first=Joseph|last=Chin|date=February 8, 2010|website=DurhamRegion.com}}
History
BSE's first show was held on July 10, 2005, at the Nashville North nightclub in Norval, Ontario. As was usual at the start of the promotion, the show was split between wrestling and music, with local band Severity playing two sets. The main event that night featured Rhyno. Also appearing were The Highlanders, Shantelle Taylor and Tiana Ringer.
The next show, in August, featured a main event pitching Christopher Daniels in a Fatal 3way against Chris Sabin and Petey Williams, as well as featuring Bobby Roode.{{Cite web|url=http://slam.canoe.ca/Slam/Wrestling/2005/08/29/pf-1192627.html|archive-url=https://archive.today/20120714035500/http://slam.canoe.ca/Slam/Wrestling/2005/08/29/pf-1192627.html|url-status=usurped|archive-date=July 14, 2012|title=Daniels bests Sabin & Williams at Toronto indy show|access-date=2008-06-17|publisher= SLAM! Sports}} 2005 was completed with a show in Mississauaga on 30 October, featuring Bobby Roode, Traci Brooks and Chris Kanyon, as well as a main event match between Chris Sabin and Petey Williams.
On February 5, held their first show of 2006 in Sudbury, Ontario, during which Chris Kanyon revealed that he was homosexual. Throughout the remainder of 2006, BSE brought in more outside stars including Eric Young, Tommy Dreamer, Abyss, Christian Cage, Gail Kim, AJ Styles, Monty Brown, Steve Corino, Senshi, Lance Storm and Pat Tanaka, a tactic that saw the number of fans at shows rise from 200 to around 750.{{Cite web|url=http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/results/bse/|title=Blood, Sweat & Ears results|access-date=2008-06-17|publisher= Online World of Wrestling}}
BSE Wrestling was brought to the attention of a wider audience at the 2008 CHIKARA King of Trios tournament. Team BSE, consisting of Kobra Kai, La Sombra Canadiense and Super Xtremo were involved in the second night of matches, facing Elite Pro Wrestling's representatives Da Soul Touchaz (Acid Jaz, Willie Richardson & Marshe Rockett) in the first round. However, as the three were not natural teammates, and were instead put together as a team to promote BSE Wrestling, they did not work as a team and were eliminated by Da Soul Touchaz after Willie Richardson pinned La Sombra Canadiense.{{Cite web|url=http://www.chikarapro.com/results.shtml |title=King of Trios 2008 - Night 2 |access-date=2008-06-18 |publisher=chikarapro.com |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080608052507/http://www.chikarapro.com/results.shtml |archive-date=8 June 2008 |url-status=dead }}
On July 22, BSE announced a free show in Mississauga, Ontario in association with The Discovery Channel's Guinea Pig show. The show's host Ryan Stock took part in the main event Extreme Rules match against Franky the Mobster. The show was recorded for broadcast on the Discovery Channel at a later date.{{Cite web|url=http://www.bsepro.com/guineapig.html|title=When Guinea Pigs Can Fly|access-date=2008-07-24|publisher= bsepro.com}} {{Dead link|date=October 2010|bot=H3llBot}} In August 2008, BSE embarked on a cross-provincial wrestling tour, in support of the United Way. Spanning Ontario, Manitoba and Saskatchewan, the tour included characters Randy and Mr. Lahey from the Trailer Park Boys, Joe E. Legend, Rhino, and Tracy Brooks during certain stops.
On February 3, 2010 it was announced that Windsor's Border City Wrestling owner Scott D'Amore has left TNA Wrestling and has announced that his promotion, will be merging with BSE Pro, to become one of North America's largest and longest running independent wrestling company under the new banner, Maximum Pro Wrestling.{{Cite web |url=http://www.wrestling-radio.com/feed_indy-194-Former_TNA_producer_to_form_new_wrestling_promotio.php |title=Former TNA Producer to Form New Promotion |access-date=2010-02-04 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100207134225/http://www.wrestling-radio.com/feed_indy-194-Former_TNA_producer_to_form_new_wrestling_promotio.php |archive-date=2010-02-07 |url-status=dead }}{{cite web|url=http://bordercitywrestling.com/maxpro.html |title=Archived copy |access-date=2010-02-04 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110708083725/http://bordercitywrestling.com/maxpro.html |archive-date=2011-07-08 }}
