that your size is still available as we have very limited quantities

make your payment by going to www.paypal.com and sending payment to
rottenwife@....

Here is the information on the upcoming 2007 KOTDM tshirt that is
about to be made...

Ian and Patti are in the process of moving into a different rental
house and Patti discovered a couple of boxes of unused tshirts in the
basement.

Since some of you have been asking about KOTDM tshirts, we are going
to use these unused tshirts to have 2007 KOTDM tshirts made up.

The shirts are white and have a KOTDM design on the front and the back
of the shirt will say "Nightmares of the Flesh."

The sizes are XL, XXL and XXXL that we have and they will be made
available through a presale. XL are going to be $12 and XXL and XXXL
will be $15.

If you need a different size than XL - XXXL, please pre-order and let
us know ASAP on what size you need. Since we have not put in the order
with the graphic place just yet, we can get individual pieces to
accomodate you. Bigger sizes than XXXL will be $20 and the smaller
sizes than XL will still be $12 but we need to know quickly so we can
get them made.

Please email Patti at rottenwife@... if you want a different size.
You can pre-order by going to www.paypal.com and sending your payment
to rottenwife@....

You can either pick the tshirt up at the KOTDM or if you can't make
the show, you can pay $4.60 for shipping within the United States.
Email Patti at rottenwife@... if you need shipping to outside of
the United States.

Main Event of the Evening:

"The Ugandan Giant" Kamala vs. "Marvelous" Mitch Ryder

Kamala will be making his debut in IWA Mid-South after his strong
showing in the fan started thread on the message board about which
legend they wanted to see next after seeing Honky Tonk Man and
Demolition Ax in Shelbyville. Mitch Ryder was quick to tell Ian Rotten
that he wanted to be the one to take on all the WWE legends that are
brought in and Kamala would be no exception. Will Mitch Ryder be able
to pull off the upset or will he be destroyed by the Ugandan beast?
Ian Rotten also announced that Kamala will indeed sing in Joliet since
it was requested by so many of our fans!

Josh Abercrombie vs. Joey Ryan

It is the battle of the "Sleazy Moustaches" as Joey "Magnum" Ryan will
try to show that he is the sleaziest of the moustaches. Josh
Abercrombie tries to regain his form that led to him being the IWA
World Light Heavyweight champion for over a year. Which man will come
out on top and which moustache will the fans cheer for more?

Joker vs. Roderick Strong

Joker has been on an impressive run in IWA of late after getting
matches with Davey Richards and AJ Styles and he'll be wrestling Low
Ki the night before in Rock Island, IL. Will Joker do more than make
an impressive showing and actually pull off the upset in this one? Can
Roderick Strong backbreak his way to another impressive victory in IWA?

Human Tornado vs. Matt Sydal

Fans demanded more of these guys and now Joliet will get to see Human
Tornado for a second time. These high flyers are definitely going to
try to steal the show in this one!

Stay tuned for more information on this show.
**********************************************************************
Tickets for this year's King of the Death Match tournament are already
on sale.

$70, $60, $50, & $40 for the 2 day passes

You can order your tickets by sending paypal payments to
rottenwife@....

This year's King of the Death Match Tournament will be a 16 man
tournament featuring the best that hardcore wrestling has to offer.

The KOTDM tournament will be held:

Friday and Saturday night - June 22 & 23, 2007
Capital Sports Cen
1915 Gladden Road
Plainfield, IN

1). Mickie Knuckles - 2006 QOTDM - The fans demanded it and now you
have it...Mickie will be in the KOTDM again this year! This will be
her second appearance in KOTDM as she had the very memorable battle
against Ian Rotten in last year's KOTDM.

2). Deranged - The former IWA tag champion is returning to IWA and
looking to win the tournament. Deranged has been in the 2004, 2005 &
2006 tournaments and his match vs. his partner Brain Damage in last
years tournament is the stuff of legend now.

3). Insane Lane - Lane defeated Freak Show to earn a spot in this
tournament and he is looking to prove that IWA Deep South is just as
hardcore as the mothership but after the recent escalation in the war
between IWA Mid-South & IWA Deep South who knows what to expect in
this tournament. Lane is going to have to have eyes in the back of his
head to navigate this field.

4). Necro Butcher - 2002 KOTDM champ- honestly, does anything need to
be said about Necro in the KOTDM tournament?

5). Corporal Robinson - 2004 KOTDM champ - Corp is filling in for the
injured Ian Rotten in this tournament taking over his spot. Corporal
is hardly filler though as he seeks to join Ian as the only other 2
time winner of this tournament.

6). Drake Younger - IWA Mid-South Death Match champion, F.U.C.K.
champion, CZW Ultraviolent Death Match Champion...I think those
credentials speak for themselves as to Drake's involvement in the
tournament. His barefoot thumbtack match vs. JC Bailey in last year's
tournament is must see!

7). BRAIN DAMAGE - Former IWA tag champ is returning from retirement
and plans to make a huge impact during his return to IWA. He made it
to the finals last year and is ready to prove that he hasn't missed a
beat during his time off and maybe the time to heal up will make him
the favorite to win the whole thing this year.

8). Gypsy Joe - This legend in the Mid-South area will be making his
IWA Mid-South debut at this event. Despite his age, Joe can take a
beating like no one else and no one will want to get chopped by this
hardcore icon during the tournament.

9). 2003 KOTDM champion - Mad Man Pondo - again just like Necro, you
don't have to say much about Mad Man Pondo being in this tournament.
He could very easily become a repeat champion in this event as well.

10). Danny Havoc - this will be his second appearance in IWA and in
the KOTDM and he is looking to make a huge name for himself.

11). Freak Show - This spot belonged to Diehard Dustin and then Freak
Show and Insane Lane held him hostage in the ring at spike point until
he forfeited the spot to Freak Show. Freak Show has been on a roll
since injuring Ian Rotten but as mentioned earlier with Insane
Lane...he'll have to have eyes in the back of his head to get through
this tournament.

12.) Tank - Tank turned his back on Drake Younger inside the barbed
wire steel cage in Plainfield and joined forces with Lane & Freak Show
on the IWA Deep South side of the war. This big man is going to be a
force to be reckoned with in this tournament.

13.) Dysfunction - this could finally be Dysfunction's year to win the
KOTDM. He has paid his dues and worked his way through this tournament
having made the semifinals and last year making it to the finals. He
only has one more step to take.

14.) From Fighting Ultimate Crazy Kings in Japan. He's their former
Deathmatch Champion: FUKIMOTO

15.) Mean Mitch Page - on the IWA Mid-South message board, Mean Mitch
Page announced that he was going to be #15 in the tournament. Mitch is
the defending champion in this tournament and like Brain Damage, has
had a lot of time off recently and should be well rested and in good
health going into this tournament which could lead to the first ever
back to back champion in KOTDM history.

This leaves one spot remaining for the tournament and we will announce
that spot soon.

Again, 2 day passes are $70, $60, $50 and $40 for this tournament and
you can get them by sending a paypal payment to rottenwife@... and
your tickets will be waiting for you at the door.

Good Day.
**********************************************************************
IWA Mid-South returns to Philadelphia, PA with an unbelievably large
show. Here is your information for this event.

IWA Mid-South presents
POINT PROVEN!

Saturday Night June 30th, 2007
New Alhambra Arena
7 Ritner Street
Philadelphia, PA

Bell Time - 8 pm; Doors Open at 7 pm

Ticket Prices: $35 front row, $30, $25 and $20 general admission
available via paypal to rottenwife@... or at the door

Main Event - Tag Team Warfare
Tough Crazy Bastards (Necro Butcher & Toby Klein)
vs.
Low Ki & Homicide

Necro Butcher has come up just short on two occassions against Low Ki
in singles competition but this time he gets his chance at revenge in
a tag team encounter. Toby Klein is Necro's long standing partner and
wouldn't mind getting his hands on Low Ki either so Low Ki had to go
out and find a partner that could stand up to the hardcore icons of
Necro and Toby. No one doubts that Homicide was the perfect choice for
his partner. This matchup should be one of the hardest hitting matches
in IWA history!

30 Minute Iron Man Match

"Lightning" Mike Quackenbush vs. Claudio Castagnoli

Mike Quackenbush has had a couple of outstanding matches against
Claudio Castagnoli here in IWA Mid-South including a battle in
Midlothian during TPI and then in Plainfield, Indiana. Claudio pulled
out the victory both times and now Quackenbush wants to gain revenge
in the place both men call home, Philadelphia, PA. Who can outlast the
other in this technical wrestling fan's dream encounter?

6 Man Tag Team Match

Super Dragon, Kevin Steen, & a Mystery Partner vs. Chris Bosh, Scott
Lost, & Joey Ryan

This six man tag will showcase the best that Pro Wrestling Guerrilla
has to offer. It will be Super Dragon's return to the Philly area
after being out for quite a while with injuries. Who will he pick as
his mystery partner to take on long time foes: Joey Ryan, Scott Lost &
Chris Bosh? Will he pick El Generico if he likes how their team
performs in the Candido Cup or will he have someone else in mind for
this huge return?

Two Hard Hitting Strong Style Showdowns

Chris Hero vs. Davey Richards
&
Drake Younger vs. TNA star Hotstuff Hernandez

Chris Hero was once considered the "franchise" of IWA Mid-South back
during his wars with CM Punk in the early to mid 2000s. While Hero may
not perform in IWA as frequently anymore, he still carries a huge
target on his back for younger guys wanting to make an impact in IWA.
Davey Richards wants to prove that he can be the future of the IWA and
win a TPI and a SST as Hero did in 2000 and 2005 respectively. Can
Hero show why he was the "franchise" or will Davey prove that he can
take that banner from Hero?

In the other Strong Style Showdown, Drake Younger wants to prove that
he can go toe to toe with TNA's LAX member Hotstuff Hernandez. Drake
has shot into stardom the past year and has been winning titles
everywhere he has gone. Can he continue to impress or will Hernandez
prove to everyone that Drake still has a ways to go before he can be
considered a dominant force in the wrestling world?

IWA Mid-South World Heavyweight Title Match

Champion Chuck Taylor vs. Matt Sydal

Matt Sydal, 2005 TPI winner, will get a chance to be the man to defeat
Chuck Taylor for the IWA heavyweight title if Chuck is still the
champion at this point. Tiger Mask IV is not going to be in the States
at this point now so he has to be removed from the show and we felt
that Sydal should stay in a title match.

Six Team Hardcore Rumble

2 teams start out for the first 5 minutes then every 2 minutes after
that, another team gets added to the mix. The tag team that wins gets
an invite to the Double Death Tag Team Tournament in November.

First two teams announced for the hardcore rumble:

TANK and ICEBERG

and

BRAIN DAMAGE and DERANGED (Vulgar Display of Power)

"The Feel Good Comedy of the Summer"

Tracy Smothers vs. "Black Machismo" Jay Lethal

I don't think much more needs to be said about this contest. How will
"Black Machismo" responds when "If the South Would Have Won, We'd of
Had It Made" starts playing? How will Tracy respond to Black Machismo?
This could rival the 8 man tag at the 2004 Strong Style Tournament.
