**********************************************************************
IWA Mid-South will be reopening the wrestling school as we have found
a perfect building in Louisville, Kentucky to have the school. The
building will be ready for business by July.

The building will not be big enough to hold shows so it will just be
the wrestling school and offices. WE WILL NOT BE DOING SHOWS IN
KENTUCKY so don't get your hopes up if you live in the Louisville area.

If you want information on the wrestling school and want to be in the
first class when the school opens, email Ian at ianrotten420@...
or Patti at rottenwife@... to get all the information on the
wrestling school.

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.
