On September 8, 2012, Devon Hughes, teamed with “Hope for a Single Mom” in order to put on a family friendly wrestling show at Viera High School in Melbourne, FL.  All proceeds from the show went towards the “Hope for a Single Mom” charity.  The show which featured many of the Team 3D academy students was able to raise over $7,000.  This year’s event has grown in size and hopes to be even more of a success than last year.

The “Hope for a Single Mom” charity was started 3 years ago.  Every year, the two founders and the people at Breast Friends of Florida choose a single mother to raise money for in order to help with medical and other expenses that have been incurred to lost income while battling cancer.

Devon is a former TNA Television Champion and 23 time World Tag Team champion along with his long time tag team partner, Bubba/Bully Ray, holding championships in every major organization in North America, including TNA, WWE, ECW, WCW, NWA as well as Japan.  They are the most decorated team in the history of Professional Wrestling.

The Team 3D Academy was opened in May of 2007 and prides itself on having trained some of the best young talent in professional wrestling today, having students signed to WWE Developmental contracts, TNA Gut Check, Ring of Honor (ROH), and Zero-1 Japan.
