PHILADELPHIA IWA-MS EVENT THIS SATURDAY, 6/11
-------------------------------------------------------

IWA-MS returns to action on Saturday afternoon, 6/11, for a 2pm event at the
New Alhambra Sports Center (formerly the ECW Arena/Viking Hall, at the corner
of Swanson & Ritner) in Philadelphia, PA. The event is part of a double header
that day at the venue, with a Combat Zone Wrestling show later that evening.
Tickets will be available at the door.

As a result of the brawl between Danny Daniels, Chris Hero, and Arik Cannon
in Plymouth, the IWA World Title Match on the 6/11 card will now be Jimmy
Jacobs defending the title against the survivor of a gauntlet featuring the
three
challengers.

Also, the Women's Title Match on the event, featuring Mickie Knuckles taking
on MsChif, will now become a three-way contest with the addition of east coast
standout Allison Danger. Danger has been a prominent member of the IWA-MS
Women's Division during the past year, but has yet to receive a title shot after
participating in the "Volcano Girls" tournament last May. IWA-MS management
has elected to grant her request of a chance at the championship on her "home
turf" of Philadelphia on 6/11, but she has a very determined champion in MsChif
and a very focused challenger in Knuckles standing in her way.

Here's a look at the lineup for 6/11 in Philadelphia...

***Main Event/First Time Ever Meeting***
[2004 Revolution Winner] SAMOA JOE vs. [2002 KOTDM Winner] NECRO BUTCHER

***Six-Man Tag Team Match/Hardcore Rules***
IAN ROTTEN & AXL ROTTEN & BALLS MAHONEY vs. MAD MAN PONDO & JC BAILEY & "Mr.

***IWA Light Heavyweight Title Match***

***IWA Women's Title/Three-Way Match***
[Champion] MsCHIF vs. MICKIE KNUCKLES vs. ALLISON DANGER

***IWA World Tag Team Title/Tables Elimination Match***
[Champions] TRIK DAVIS & RYAN BOZ to defend against four other teams. Two
teams will start, and a new team will enter the match every two minutes. When
one
wrestler is put through a table, his team is eliminated from the match. The
challenging teams are:
"The Iron Saints" VITO & SAL THOMASELLI
SILAS YOUNG & "Underwear Model" ERIC PRIEST
