As the title reads, somebody already let the cat out of
the bag before we could announce this the way we wanted to (with a
revised lineup), we are moving the TPI this year to September 4th and
5th. With so many guys not being able to make it to this years tourney,
we decided to post-pone the event until we could have the very best in
indy wrestling.
As you know, Dragon gate is also running
Chicago that weekend on the 6th. This way, fans can come in and enjoy
TPI and Dragon Gate as well.
We are currently working on a revised lineup and will have a FULL lineup
announced this Saturday in Joliet.
For those of you that have purchased tickets......
We
will still be running June 5th and 6th in Joliet. We plan on still
having a big show (just not TPI status). If you cannot attend the
rescheduled date for TPI, then you can still use your tickets and
receive the money back (exp: for both nights, tickets will be only $25
each. We will give you the remainder back in a credit or refund.) If
you would like to keep you're already purchased TPI tickets and use
them for the rescheduled date in September, then please let us know via
email at rottenwife@.... If you can not attend TPI and wish not to
attend June 5th and 6th, then a credit or refund will be offered to you.
We
hope you see why we had to change the date and reassure you that it
will make the tournament better as a whole. We believe what we have for
June 5th and 6th will be outstanding.
