IWA vs. Elite Pro Challenge - Best of 7

ElitePro: Jason Hades vs. IWA-MS: "Pure Dynamite" Billy Roc

Two of the best up-and coming light heavyweights in the midwest will
collide in what should be a fast-paced matchup. Billy Roc has already
successfully defended the honor of IWA-MS against ElitePro, being a
member of the successful 8-man tag team at the ElitePro Showcase.
Jason Hades has broke out in both ElitePro and IWA-MS with his
dreaded "Killswitch" finisher and has chosen to represent ElitePro in
this special singles challenge.

ElitePro: "The Human Highlight Reel" Acid vs. IWA-MS: Chuck Taylor

Two of the best natural athletes in either promotion, Acid and Chuck
Taylor are considered by many to be the faces of their respective
promotions. Taylor is fresh off losing the IWA World Heavyweight
Championship to Mike Quackenbush and Acid is ready to show the
independent wrestling world that he's one of the very best in the
midwest. This match above any other could be the "show-stealer" as
both men are incredibly athletic and talented.

ElitePro: Dysfunction vs. IWA-MS: Ricochet

Dysfunction will represent ElitePro as their champion in this unusual
matchup. One of the premier "hybrid" style wrestlers in the country,
Dysfunction will have to find a way to ground one of independent
wrestling's best high-flyers.

ElitePro: Kimberly Kash vs. IWA-MS: Mickie Knuckles

This is a rematch from the ElitePro Showcase, which saw outside
interference from The Night Breed and J.D. Hughes. At the end of the
match, Kimberly Kash walked out with the IWA MidSouth Women's
Championship, a belt Knuckles prizes dearly. Many fans expected Kash
to fold under the intensity of Mickie, but Kash showed she had fight
and stood her ground. But as IWA-MS fans well know, if there's one
woman in the world you don't want to cross, it's "The Walking Episode
of COPS".

ElitePro: Team Taliban ("Prince" Arya Daivari & Jake O'Neill) vs. IWA-
MS: The Iron Saints (Sal & Vito Thomaselli)

The Iron Saints are the proud owners of both the IWA MidSouth and
ElitePro Tag Team Championships. But in this Best-of-Seven Challenge,
they have decided to side with the promotion where they first broke
out as a major independent tag team. They have assured Ian Rotten
that they will wrestle the match as they always do, to win. For Team
Taliban, this is an enormous opportunity for the two up-and-comers to
score the biggest upset either promotion has seen in quite some time.

ElitePro: "The Real Deal" Jay Jensen vs. IWA-MS: Deranged

Two of the toughest men in their respective promotions, Jay Jensen
and Deranged could very well be the hardest-hitting of the seven
matches in the series. Deranged, known most for his work in
deathmatches, has been impressive against so-called "strong style"
wrestlers recently. Jensen prides himself on his toughness and this
will certainly be a test of just that.

ElitePro: "The Impact Bully" Brandon Thomaselli vs. IWA-MS: "The
Undisputed King of Hardcore" Ian Rotten

Many of the wrestlers in the IWA MidSouth locker room have long made
mention of the fact that a young Brandon Thomaselli never got
his "initiation" match into IWA with promoter Ian Rotten as so many
of them before him had. With Ian retirement from wrestling just about
2 months away, time was running out for Brandon to get was has been
coming to him for nearly four years. Not only must Brandon try to
survive his first singles match with Ian Rotten, he must do what his
brothers have decided NOT to do - defend ElitePro Wrestling.

Part Two of the Joliet, IL Doubleheader:

Saturday Night October 13th, 2007
Hartman Recreational Center
511 N. Collins Street
Joliet, IL
Bell Time: 8 pm; Doors Open at 7:15 pm
Ticket Prices: $25, $20 & $15 ($5 off if you purchase tickets for the
IWA vs. ElitePro afternoon show for a total savings of $10 if you
purchase tickets to both shows)

Some people have been wondering about the incident with Ed Chuman at
the TPI and what our relationship with the NWA means to the Amazing
Kong vs. Mickie Knuckles match. Ian called Ed Chuman this week to
talk with him about still doing the match. Chuman told us that since
we are no longer a part of the NWA, we could NOT have the match. Ian
then got phone calls from the buildings in Plainfield, Midlothian and
Joliet saying that Ed Chuman had called them and informed them that
we no longer had the right to use the NWA insurance policy during our
shows. With our current financial situation, we are not capable of
carrying our own insurance. Ed Chuman called Ian and basically
railroaded us into signing a 3 year contract with the NWA to remain a
part of the NWA organization so we could still continue to run shows
since the buildings would not let us run without insurance. Not only
did we have to sign a three year contract with Chuman, we also had to
make some other concessions for the NWA. In return, we get to have
insurance and continue running shows AND we get to have the Mickie
vs. Kong match at the Strong Style Tournament. We can not do it on
this show due to contractual obligations that Kong already has.
Enough with the depressing news, now onto most of the lineup for our
11th Anniversary show!

IWA'S 11th Anniversary Show

NWA World Tag Team Title Match

Joey "Magnum" Ryan & Karl "The Machine Gun" Anderson vs. The Iron
Saints

The NWA World Tag Team Champions will make a title defense at our
anniversary show as the team of Ryan and Anderson defend the straps
against the IWA Mid-South and ElitePro Tag Team Champions, Vito & Sal
Thomaselli. Can the hometown heroes bring home the World Tag Titles
in front of their home crowd?

NWA Midwest X Division Title Match

Jason Dukes vs. Ian Rotten

Ian Rotten is not your typical X Division wrestler but then again
neither is the champion Jason Dukes. Ian decided that if he is going
to be forced to put Jason Dukes onto IWA shows and actually have him
in a match, he might as well make it a one time thing and take the
match himself and kill Dukes. What better way to turn the tables on
Ed Chuman after being railroaded by him than taking his title and
destroying his "little friend" in the process?

Barbed Wire Boards/Barbed Wire Bat Match

Insane Lane vs. Freak Show

These former tag team partners had a falling out in Sellersburg, IN
at "Beginning of the End" when Freak Show was trying to bring an
earlier retirement to Ian Rotten after Ian dislocated his knee and
was left defenseless in the match. Freak Show kept trying to attack
Rotten and not let Ian get to his planned retirement in December.
Insane Lane had finally had enough of all the hatred and animosity
towards him due to his association with Show and refused to continue
the beating. "We came here to win, not to injure him and leave him
unable to provide for his wife and kids." With that statement and a
punch, Six Feet Under was no more and Lane left Freak Show to fend
for himself. Now Freak Show wants to "beat some sense" into Insane
Lane and show him what a mistake he made. Will Joliet be able to
handle this war?

Pinfalls Count Anywhere Grudge Match

Trailer Park Boyz (Josh Abercrombie & Nate Webb) vs. Milwaukee's Best
(Dysfunction & Silas Young)

This feud is between Josh Abercrombie and Dysfunction and their
partners have gotten involved mostly because Dysfunction cheats and
Josh has decided to have his tag team partner watch his back. Will
Josh & Nate win one for the Trailer Park or will Dys & Silas pull out
the victory and make Milwaukee proud?


Deranged vs. Brandon Thomaselli

This one isn't a qualifying match for the Strong Style Tournament but
it definitely could be viewed as a trial match for both of these guys
to prove that they belong in the tournament. "The Impact Bully"
Brandon Thomaselli broke Vortekz jaw with a forearm and well he
prides himself in being a bully. Deranged wants to step into the
strong style genre and prove that he can be just as devastating
outside of the death match style as he is in it. Who will prove
superior in this contest of hard hitting sluggers?


Roderick Strong vs. Eddie Kingston

Eddie Kingston is the defending Strong Style Tournament champion and
is coming off an unbelievablely hard fought victory over Chris Hero
at the 2007 TPI in a Last Man Standing match. Roderick Strong is
undoubtably one of the toughest men in the wrestling business to go
along with one of the hardest hitters. This matchup will definitely
show whether Eddie Kingston will be a favorite to repeat in the
upcoming 2007 SST.



B.J. Whitmer vs. C.J. Otis

B.J. Whitmer is a former Strong Style Tournament Champion, Ted Petty
Invitational Champion and IWA Mid-South World Heavyweight Champion.
C.J. Otis would love nothing more than to have a resume that
impressive. He has earned the monicker "Strong Style Superman" and
wants to prove that fact to B.J. on one of the biggest stages in
IWA...the 11th Anniversary Show.


6 Way Elimination Match

Devon Moore vs. Jason Hades vs. Justin Dredd vs. Troy Walters vs.
Lucky vs. J.C. Ryder

Plus much more to be added.

The NWA World Women's Champion Amazing Kong will take on IWA Mid-
South Women's Champion Mickie Knuckles in one of the most requested
matches that we have ever had...men's or women's. This will be a hard
hitting battle like never seen before in the women ranks. Will "The
Walking Episode of Cops" be able to handle being in there with a
woman that is so much bigger than her for the first time since she
was maybe a rookie? Will all the death matches and wrestling all the
boys prove to be more than enough to ready Mickie for the opportunity
of a lifetime? What better named show than the Revolution Strong
Style Tournament to have this match?

Main Event - Ian Rotten's Retirement Match

Ian Rotten vs. Mickie Knuckles

Ian's career has spanned 17 years and he has traveled the world and
wrestled in such companies as ECW, USWA and Global that gave him
television exposure and helped build his name. He started IWA Mid-
South 11 years ago when he moved to Kentucky after he fell in love
with Patti. This will mark the end of an era as he wrestles his final
match and who better to face in that match than his final student
that graduated the Ian Rotten Wrestling School. Ian and Mickie have
had many memorable matches in more than just IWA Mid-South but I
don't think anyone will forget the 2003 TPI or the 2006 KOTDM or even
the match after that in Streamwood. This one is going to be something
to remember even more than those other matches as Ian has promised to
bring the house down on his final night inside a wrestling ring.
Hopefully everyone will come out and support IWA Mid-South and give
Ian a great sendoff into retirement.

Also appearing on this show...

Former WWE/ECW/WCW Superstar - Sandman!!!!

We will be announcing Sandman's opponent for this show soon.
