NEXT TAPING 4/26 - FRONT ROW TICKETS GO ON SALE TONIGHT!
----------------------------------------------------------

SHIMMER - WOMEN ATHLETES returns to live action on Saturday, April
26th at the Berwyn Eages Club (6309 26th Street) in Berwyn, IL, just
outside Chicago. Bell time is 4pm. Volumes 17 & 18 of the SHIMMER DVD
series will be filmed during the course of the event.

This will be the most talent loaded taping in SHIMMER company
history. Our last taping featured 24 of the top women athletes in
profesional wrestling, and this time around we will feature more
performers than ever before! It is our goal to deliver the most
complete talent lineup in women's wrestling for this taping, and are
pulling out all the stops!

Who from SHIMMER's past will make their return to action on Volumes
17 & 18? Who will make their SHIMMER debut on April 26th? These
questions will be answered when SHIMMER returns with its biggest
taping ever!

Since several fans have been known to travel to the Chicago area from
other parts of the country to attend our live tapings, we are giving
everyone ample notice to mark your calendars and plan ahead.

Front row tickets for the Volumes 17 & 18 taping will be available at
a cost of $40, and will go on sale online at 7pm Central time tonight
(Tuesday, January 1st, 2008).

As we have done in the past, tickets will be available via The
SHIMMER Forums at www.shimmerathletes.com as we will accept ticket
requests through Private Message at 7pm Central tonight. Please do
not contact us prior to that time to try to reserve tickets before we
put them on sale. We will not be able to do so for you. If you'd like
to get front row tickets, make plans to be online when they go on
sale. Keep in mind, for the past several tapings, front row has sold
out the same day they were put on sale.

Please note that we will only be accepting PayPal ticket orders for
front row tickets tonight, and payment must be issued this evening in
order for us to honor your ticket request. We will not be waiting for
mail orders for front row to arrive, due to the demand for them on
the day they go on sale. If you don't have a PayPal account, and
would like front row tickets, you now have notice to establish one so
that you don't get shut out of the opportunity to get tickets.

General admission tickets to the taping will be made available at a
later date. All we will be putting on sale tonight are the 65 front
row tickets.

Please be advised that we had to turn away about 25 fans who tried to
purchase tickets at the door last time, as we had to cut off ticket
sales when the venue reached capacity. We will do so once again this
time to avoid overcrowding. If you wish to attend the taping on April
26th, get your tickets in advance.

Mark your calendars! Saturday, April 26th SHIMMER is back in Berwyn!

NOTES FROM ROH IN MANHATTAN
----------------------------------------------------------

Ring of Honor presented two huge events at the Manhattan Center in
New York over this past weekend.

On 12/29, the fifth ROH pay-per-view was filmed, in addition to bonus
matches for the DVD release of the event. As part of the non-PPV
matches, a non-title match took place, with SHIMMER Champion Sara Del
Rey vs. Daizee Haze vs. Lacey. Daizee scored the victory following
the Mind Trip on Lacey. After the match, special guest Tammy Sytch
praised Haze and Del Rey on the microphone, and then got into a war
of words with Lacey. As Lacey was about to attack Sytch, Daizee
stopped her and nailed Lacey with the heart punch, setting Tammy up
to deliver a big slap right across the face of Lacey. The match will
appear on the DVD release of the 5th ROH PPV.

On 12/30, ROH's "Final Battle 2007" event took place. Though no
women's matches were featured on the 12/30 event, it was noteworthy
for the Women of Honor because it featured the ROH return of Mercedes
Martinez, as she was revealed as the latest addition to The Vulture
Squad (Jack Evans, Ruckus, Jigsaw, and Julius Smokes). Look
for "Final Battle 2007" to be released on DVD in a few weeks.
