--DANIELS RETAINS HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE AGAINST JACOBS!!
--BAYLESS STRETCHERED OUT BY WHITMER & DANIELS!!
--IWA IN SCOTTSBURG TONIGHT!!
IWA Mid-South Wrestling returned to the National Guard Armory in Salem, Indiana on Thursday night, October 2nd for "The Huss Man Cometh." Here's what went down...
1. BRAD BRADLEY def. "Britney Spears' Boyfriend" CHUCKIE SMOOTH with a Canadian backbreaker in the opening bout.
2. MICKIE KNUCKLES def. CASH FLO (w/ Jim Fannin) in an intergender matchup with an inside cradle. The majority of the bout saw Cash destroy Mickie with chops. At one point IAN ROTTEN called for the match to stop due to the brutality of Cash's offense, but Mickie demanded it be restarted as she wanted to continue. She finally got the victory after giving her male opponent a low blow.
3. CORPORAL ROBINSON def. "Metalhead" STEVE STONE and JAIMY COXXX in a three way dance when Corp pinned Stone following a Boot Camp off the 2nd rope.
4. BJ WHITMER (w/ Jim Fannin) def. ALEX SHELLEY when Shelley went to suplex Whitmer from the ring apron into the ring and Fannin tripped Shelley's leg and held it down while Whitmer scored the pin. After the match, IAN ROTTEN told Fannin that he would not become a factor in the main event in the corner of his charge DANNY DANIELS, as Fannin was not going to be permitted at ringside during the Heavyweight Title matchup.
After intermission, DAVE PRAZAK conducted an in-ring interview with the returning BECKY BAYLESS. Prazak asked Becky what she had on her agenda after accompanying Nate Webb to his King of the Death Matches weekend matches, and asked if she had her eye on any other IWA Mid-South talent. She said that she did, but before she could say who it was, BJ WHITMER made his way to the ring. Whitmer said that even though he didn't need a new manager because he already has Jim Fannin, he did need a new girlfriend. Bayless proceeded to turn Whitmer down, much to his dismay. Before Whitmer could cause any harm in reaction, JIMMY JACOBS hit the ring to stick up for Becky. Jacobs proceeded to tell Whitmer off and announced that Becky would be in his corner for his main event matchup against DANNY DANIELS.
5. "Spyder" NATE WEBB def. IAN ROTTEN with a backslide. The bout closely resembled Rotten's matches with people like Chris Hero and Tarek the Great, featuring a lot of hard hitting submission wrestling. During the closing moments of the match, rookie referee HEIDI ROBINETTE was knocked down inadvertently by Webb. CASH FLO came to ringside and hit the Oh Shit legdrop on Rotten without Webb or Robinette seeing him. Webb then executed a tumbleweed off the top rope and went for a cover, only for Ian to kick out. Ian eventually fell victim to a Nate Webb backslide for the three count. After the match, Ian asked for Cash one on one Friday night at the show in Scottsburg, but Cash refused, saying he had other things to tend to on a Friday night. Ian told the fans that Cash is booked to appear on the next event at the Armory in Salem, three weeks from now on 10/23, and asked for a match with Cash on that show. Cash accepted, and agreed to Lumberjack Match stipulations for that contest.
6. TRACY SMOTHERS def. HY-ZAYA. After the match Smothers asked for a match against Brad Bradley on Friday night in Scottsburg. He was granted the match by IAN ROTTEN, and Rotten told Smothers he will be booked on any IWA Mid-South show from this point forward that he is available for.
7. SONJAY DUTT def. J.C. BAILEY in a Tables & Ladders & Chairs Match to retain the IWA Mid-South Light Heavyweight Championship after Dutt hit the Phoenix Splash and scored the pinfall. At the count of two, Bailey had his foot on the ropes, but referee DONNIE BOWDEN didn't catch it, and made the three count. Three tables were broken during the course of the bout, and two ladders came into play.
8. DANNY DANIELS def. "Barbaric Berzerker" JIMMY JACOBS (w/ Becky Bayless) two falls to one to retain the IWA World Heavyweight Championship. Daniels gained the first fall with a Rubik's Cube (electric chair drop). Jacobs scored the second fall via submission with the Camel Clutch. During the third and deciding fall, Daniels pulled referee DONNIE BOWDEN in the way of a Jacobs big boot, knocking him down. BJ WHITMER took that opportunity to try to screw Jacobs & Bayless by hitting the ring and giving Jacobs an exploder suplex, but Jacobs kicked out of Daniels' cover. Whitmer's interference brought ALEX SHELLEY out to the ring, who went to hit Daniels with the title belt, but Daniels ducked out of the way and Shelley accidentally struck Jacobs, leading to Daniels' second pinfall, to retain the title. Post-match Whitmer and Daniels got a hold of Becky, and gave her a spike piledriver off the second rope, laying her out. As the show came to a close, Bayless was stretchered out of the ring.
Upon examination after the event, Bayless was found to have compressed vertebrae, but nothing is broken. IWA management wishes Becky well in her recovery, and she has said she will be in attendance for Friday night's event despite doctors' wishes.
We return to the Salem Armory on Thursday night, October 23rd. On the card, Ian Rotten will take on Cash Flo in a Lumberjack Match, plus Mickie will battle NWA TNA's Daizee Haze, and more to be announced during the coming weeks.

Single night tickets are also available at $35, $30, and $25. For ringside seats, that means you save up to $20 by purchasing the two night pass rather than buying each night at the door.

Send check or money order payable to Jim Fannin to: IWA Mid-South Hardcore Wrestling, PO Box 21476, Louisville, KY 40221-0476.

IWA Mid-South - August 1 & 2, 2003 - "King of the Death Matches 2003"
This 2 tape set which runs close to 10 hours covers 2 nights of the most hardcore, violent, bloody, insane death match wrestling in the world today. 16 men from all over the country competed in matches such as fans bring the weapons (and they brought some of the craziest stuff I have ever seen), four corners of pain, bed of nails, caribbean spider web, barbed wire canvas, taipei death, electrified lighttubes, high impact tables matches, house of horrors inside a steel cage and much more. Although this is King of the Death Matches, IWA also showcased their great wrestling with several fantastic, extremely hard hitting matches. Highlights include Homicide in two seperate off the charts matches against Chris Hero and BJ Whitmer....Chris Hero vs Danny Daniels in a fantastic match....the CZW vs IWA war also continued as Sonjay Dutt battled Alex Shelley in a great match and also a 3 way tag which saw CZW get its hands on former CZW star M-Dogg 20 in a match that had the crowd going crazy....Messiah defending the CZW title in a great match against Corporal Robinson....the wrestling debut of female ref Mickie which saw her get hit with the sickest forearm I have ever seen and then dropped on her head onto the top of a chair.
