HEADLINES:
--PUNK/HERO TONIGHT IN LAFAYETTE!!
--JACOBS/SHELLEY INSIDE A STEEL CAGE!!
--SAMOA JOE TO BATTLE HOMICIDE IWA-MS STYLE!!
IWA Mid-South Wrestling, in association with NWA Midwest, presents "One More Time" TONIGHT, Friday, June 11th, at the National Guard Armory (5220 East 200 South) in Lafayette, Indiana. Bell time is 8pm. Tickets are $20, $15, and $10 general admission, and will be available at the door. Directions to the venue can be found below.
Tonight's show is packed with marquee matches, including a double main event featuring two long standing IWA-MS rivalries being renewed "one more time" tonight.
In the first half of the main event, CM Punk and Chris Hero will have their first singles bout against one another in an IWA ring since their classic 93 minutes two out of three falls encounter back in February of 2003. This match will have no time limit, in light of the lengthy matches these two have had against one another in the past.
The second half of the main event will be a Steel Cage Match between Jimmy Jacobs and Alex Shelley, which will finally settle their "Best of Seven Series" score. The cage duel will go as many pinfalls as is necessary to conclude the series, which currently stands at 3-2 in favor of Shelley.
Plus: Two of the hardest hitting men in wrestling today will square off in IWA tonight as Samoa Joe and Homicide lock horns in Lafayette... Austin Aries will challenge Matt Sydal for the IWA Light Heavyweight Championship in a battle of high flying daredevils, and a rematch from the April Lafayette show... Lacey will make her first Women's Title defense against Daizee Haze in a match with Knockout or Submission stipulations... The monstrous tandem of Brad Bradley & Ryan Boz will make their first Tag Team Title defense against the "Ring Crew Express" of Dunn & Marcos... plus a whole lot more!
