First match signed for our big debut show in Galesburg:

Former WWE/ECW superstar Al Snow vs. Former WWE Light Heavyweight Champion
Gillberg

Al
Snow will be making his first return to IWA Mid-South this weekend
since 1997. We hope our fans come out to give him a very well deserved
welcoming back into IWA. Gillberg is a blast from Ian's past that was
part of Ian's initiation into the business while being trained by Axl

Heavyweight Champion, Gillberg will be plenty of competition for Al
Snow.
