******************************************************************

IWA Mid-South returns to action on Saturday night March 31st

Don Preston Recreational Center
14500 Kostner Avenue
Midlothian, IL 60445

Belltime 7:30; Doors open at 6:45 p.m.
Ticket Prices are $20 and $15 - the $10 ticket prices are no longer

Main Event - Street Fight - IWA Mid-South World Heavyweight Title Match

Chuck Taylor vs. Low Ki

Chuck Taylor called out Low Ki at the Plainfield show on March 2 by
calling him a "pussy" and a "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle" and
challenged him to this matchup. Low Ki was livid when he heard these
comments and immediately accepted the challenge. Chuck Taylor
intentionally got himself DQ'd the last time these two men faced each
other but they will be no disqualification in this matchup. Can Chuck
live up to his promise of being able to "choke to the throat" among
other things on his way to protecting the title or will Low Ki be able
to stay unbeaten and add the title to his list of accomplishments
since entering IWA Mid-South?

Last Man Standing
Drake Younger vs. CJ Otis

These two former partners have done battle in several matchups of late
stemming from Finisher's Matches to Tap Out matches to No Holds Barred
matches. This one could be the most brutal of them all as it will be
Last Man Standing. Will this match finally crown a decisive winner in
this feud? Can Drake Younger use his abilities as Death Match champion
to incorporate weapons and hardcore into this matchup to put CJ Otis
down for the count? Will CJ be able to use the training of Sabu and
Dan Severn to prove his superiority?

These matches have just been added to the show:

IWA Mid-South Light Heavyweight Title Match
Josh Abercrombie vs. Brandon Thomaselli
Josh has been the light heavyweight champion for more than a year now
and his last defense came against his former partner Brandon
Thomaselli. After the match, Brandon turned on his friend and partner
and attacked him. Josh is furious and has demanded that he be given an
opportunity to beat some respect into the "Impact Bully." Will Josh
even the score or will Brandon be able to bring to an end the longest
title reign in IWA history?

Old School vs. New School - Clash of Styles
Ian Rotten vs. Ricochet
Some fans have billed Ricochet as a one or two trick pony that has a
lot to learn in the ring. Who better to do the teaching than Ian
Rotten? Will Ian be able to teach Ricochet a thing or two by
stretching him and outwrestling and outbrawling him? Will Ricochet be
able to use his speed and quickness to pull out the victory over Ian?
Can Ricochet even live to tell his friends about this experience? This
could be the most intriguing matchup in quite some time in an IWA ring.

Strong Style Battle
Eddie Kingston vs. Ricky Reyes

Eddie Kingston is returning from his broken ankle and wants to prove
that he has not lost a step since winning the Strong Style Tournament
even after that serious injury. He will have his work cut out for him
against Reyes who is definitely one of the hardest hitters to come
into IWA.
