We made a decision late this morning to go ahead and postpone the Rock
Island show for next Friday night, June 15th.
There was very little action in the thread on the message board
leading up to the show and the fact that we could not put together a
lineup for the show that we deemed worthy of our return to Rock
Island, we decided not to risk the dangers of having another horrible
turnout like we did for the Candido Cup.
We can not afford to take another hit like that with the Oolitic floor
situation hanging over our head (even though that is going well right
now) but we also have to think about King of the Death Matches and the
ECW Arena show in Philadelphia. Those shows do not have the advance
sales that we would like and they are much more expensive shows than
Rock Island so we need to be prepared for those shows to the best of
our abilities.
We do plan on running Rock Island again in the future but right now we
just can not extend ourselves that far.
We apologize for the postponement but hope that our fans understand
our decision to not do a lackluster show and risk future shows or
making the wrestlers work for next to nothing in order to do this show.
Do not fear about the KOTDM or Point Proven or TPI...they will still
go on which is why we decided to postpone a lesser show.
Hopefully we will see you in Joliet.
