Headlines:
--WILDSIDE/IWA-MS INVASION?!
--RAIN DEBUTS IN MEXICO!!
--ARIES ADDED TO HIGHLAND THIS SATURDAY!!
INVASIONS ARE LAME.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
IWA Mid-South Wrestling presents "Derby Madness 2004: The IWA Mid-South/NWA
Wildside Challenge" on Friday night, April 30th, at the National Guard Armory
(2909 Grant Line Road) in New Albany, Indiana.
The event will feature a series of IWA-MS vs. NWA Wildside bouts, in a
"friendly duel" between the two independent promotions. NWA President Bill
Behrens
recently stated "I will not be invading anywhere again anytime soon," for those
wondering if some sort of invasion is imminent. IWA-MS representative
"Spyder" Nate Webb was also quoted as saying "I refuse to invade anything," when
the
idea of an IWA invasion of Wildside was brought up in discussion.
A topic has been opened on the IWA-MS message board at
http://board.iwamidsouthwrestling.com/ for those fans who follow NWA Wildside
and are familiar with
its talent, who would like to share their ideas of "dream matches" between the
two promotions that they'd like to see at Derby Madness. Post your thoughts!
But have no fear of "invaders," "invasions," any sort of "unwelcome
intrusion," or acts of "war" between IWA and Wildside on April 30th in New
Albany.

you'd like to study their talent roster!
RAIN DEBUTS IN MEXICO FOR LUCHA LIBRE FEMINIL!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Congratulations to IWA Mid-South Women's Division star Rain on her first tour
of Mexico, for Lucha Libre Feminil. Rain appeared on three shows for the
promotion over the course of this past weekend.
Among her matches on the tour, Rain defeated Valentina in a singles bout, and
teamed with Valentina & Diana la Cazadora in a six-person tag team loss to
Polly Star & La Bruja & La Tigresa. Both of these matches were held under
standard lucha libre two out of three falls format.
More IWA Mid-South Women's Division wrestlers are expected to appear for LLF
in the future.
