Fans Bring The Weapons Barbed Wire Cage Match

Old & Younger (Ian Rotten & Drake Younger)

Ian & Drake were having a hellacious battle inside the barbed wire cage
for the IWA Death Match title before the vicious attack by Six Feet
Under as they beat on the already worn out Rotten & Younger. They held
off the dressing room for several minutes before finally being tackled
and held down allowing Drake and Ian to be taken from the cage. This
time the door will be put on the cage to keep anyone else from getting
into the cage and SMV will have to find another way to get good footage
instead of taping through the open door. Ian and Drake have promised to
show Six Feet Under that while IWA Deep South is a worthy sister
promotion to IWA Mid-South, they would be much safer staying in Alabama
than coming to Indiana and Illinois and fighting this war against us.

Special Challenge Match

TNA Superstar AJ Styles vs. Joker


AJ Styles placed a phone call this morning to Ian Rotten after reading
the results of April Blood Showers to try to get a feel for who he might
be put against in his return to the IWA Mid-South. AJ was quite arrogant
and cocky in saying that he wanted a piece of Joker after reading the
comments that Davey Richards had to say after the match about how good
Joker is. Davey Richards said that Joker could hang with anybody and AJ
Styles wants to prove Richards wrong and has issued this challenge to
show that there is no one in his league let alone Joker.

IWA Champ Chuck Taylor vs. Former WWE tag champ Danny Basham

Chuck Taylor was riding high after successfully defending his title
twice at April Blood Showers. He went to Ian Rotten after the show was
over and demanded that he be given the match against Danny Basham since
Ian announced earlier in the night that it was just Danny for this show.
Chuck said he hoped that going against an Indianapolis hometown guy that
the crowd would NOT cheer for him as they did at April Blood Showers. He
wanted to choke children and stab rednecks in the face for cheering him.
He also stated that he wants to beat all the stars that the world has to
offer to prove his greatness. He has toppled Low Ki, Colt Cabana, Ian
Rotten, Jay Lethal, Toby Klein and everyone in between and he would be
more than happy to add Danny Basham to the list of stars that couldn't
topple him for the title.

MOST HATED MAN IN IWA

[[image] ] vs. [[image] ]

Tracy Smothers vs. Z Barr

These two men couldn't get a single person in Plainfield to cheer for
them at April Blood Showers when they went against the popular as Hulk
Hogan in 1985 Chuck Taylor. It was bizarro world in IWA Mid-South as it
was completely opposite of the reactions that Chuck Taylor has been
receiving in Midlothian and then at the show in Shelbyville. There was
an altercation in the dressing room between Tracy and Z-Barr that
carried out into the parking lot after the show as they argued over who
was more hated. Tracy thought the argument was settled after he told
ZBarr that he could be his daddy so he loved him like a son but ZBarr
hated him for being a deadbeat dad so that proved that he was more hated
than Z Barr. Z Barr retaliated by sending pictures to us to put into
this thread "because no wrestling photographer has ever taken a picture
of me because they say I suck so bad" so he had to produce his own
pictures. I am afraid to see what these two men pull out of their bag of
tricks to win the title of "Most Hated Man in IWA."

IWA Women's Title Match

Mickie Knuckles vs. Christie Summers

These two did battle in Shelbyville, Indiana in Christie Summers debut
in IWA Mid-South. Christie was able to stand toe to toe with Mickie for
most of the match and took a horrendous beating but kept fighting back.
Mickie Knuckles was impressed by being in the ring with a woman that
wasn't a complainer and that fought back and was willing to fight.
Mickie asked Ian if he would please bring Christie back because she
would love nothing more than to get into another fight as a "Prelude to
Death" to prepare for the King of the Death Match tournament.

Old School IWA Battle

"Marvelous" Mitch Ryder vs. Flash Flanagan

Mitch Ryder and Flash Flanagan go all the way back to the KMart building
days in Louisville, Kentucky circa 1997 & 1998. They are two old school
IWA guys that like to beat people up and they will get the chance to do
it to one another in this encounter. Will Mitch be too marvelous for
Flash to handle?

Stay tuned to the message board for further details.

Hartman Recreation Center
511 N. Collins St.
Joliet, IL

Tickets will be $25, $20 & $15.

Bell time is 8 pm...Doors Open at 7:15 pm

***MAIN EVENT***
TNA Star "PHENOMENAL" AJ STYLES vs International Superstar TIGER MASK IV

In Joliet, AJ Styles will face off against the current NWA World Junior
Heavyweight Champion, the debuting Tiger Mask IV. This should be a
phenomenal match as the Michinoku Pro and New Japan star, trained by the
original Tiger Mask and the Great Sasuke, clashes with former NWA World
Heavyweight Champion and multiple time TNA X-Division Champion, AJ
Styles.

***Strong Style Showdown***
2006 SST Champion "LAST OF A DYING BREED" EDDIE KINGSTON vs TNA Star
"HOTSTUFF" HERNANDEZ

LAX's Hernandez impressed many in his IWA debut against Low Ki in San
Antonio, Texas. The "Tex-Mex T-Rex" will have his hands full with the
2006 Strong Style Champion Eddie Kingston. This should be a slugfest
like no other. Can the "Last of a Dying Breed" outlast Hernandez's
strength? Or will the former NWA World Tag-Team Champion be too much for
Kingston to handle?

***IWA World Light-Heavyweight Title***
BRANDON THOMASELLI vs PWU Champion DEVON MOORE

Brandon Thomaselli recently captured the IWA World Light-Heavyweight
Title in a TLC match in Shelbyville, IN on April 14. If "The Bully" is
still champion, he will defend against the PWU Champion Devon Moore in
Joliet.

JOSH ABERCROMBIE vs JIGSAW

Still heated over losing his coveted IWA World Light-Heavyweight
Championship, Josh Abercrombie will look to get right back to the top as
he meets Chikara Pro's Jigsaw.

HUMAN TORNADO vs RICOCHET

WSX and PWG star, the Human Tornado will finally make his debut in IWA
Mid-South and he'll face off against the 18 year old, high-flying
sensation, Ricochet. This is sure to be a flip-flying, highly
entertaining match-up.
