IWA Mid-South returns to Philadelphia, PA with an unbelievably large show. Here is your information for this event.IWA Mid-South presents [glow=red,2,300]POINT PROVEN![/glow]
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
We have had to make some lineup changes due to several reasons. First off all, "Lightning" Mike Quackenbush and Davey Richards will be in Japan at the time of this show so they have to be removed from the lineup. Also, Super Dragon reinjured himself at the Candido Cup and Scott Lost and Chris Bosh are still banged up as well so he have decided to do away completely with the PWG six man tag match. Also, Matt Sydal has informed us that he is going to Japan for the summer so we have decided to not risk him winning the heavyweight title and then leaving for several months so we have changed the heavyweight title match. Here is the revised lineup.
Main Event - Tag Team Warfare
& 
Tough Crazy Bastards (Necro Butcher & Toby Klein)
vs.
The Rottweilers (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!
The Kings of Wrestling (Chris Hero & Claudio Castagnoli)
vs.
& 
BLKOUT (Ricky Reyes & Sabian)
Tag Team Scramble TLC Match for IWA Tag Titles
The Iron Saints
vs.
& 
Team PWU (Johnny Kashmere & Devon Moore)
vs.
Pretty Unreal (Elgin & Ash)
vs.
Naptown Dragons (Vortekz & Diehard)
Strong Style Showdown
vs. 
Drake Younger vs. TNA star Hotstuff Hernandez
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
vs. 
Champion Chuck Taylor vs. Josh Abercrombie
Josh Abercrombie held the light heavyweight title for over a year straight before Brandon Thomaselli defeated him. Josh is ready to be the streak ender this time as he tries to end the 2nd longest IWA heavyweight title reign in history currently held by Chuck Taylor.
4 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.
The Devil's Rejects (TANK and ICEBERG)
vs.
BRAIN DAMAGE and DERANGED (Vulgar Display of Power)
vs.
Six Feet Under (Insane Lane & Freak Show)
vs.
Children of Pain (Jacob Ladder & Darrin Childs)
"The Feel Good Comedy of the Summer"
vs. 
Tracy Smothers with Z Barr 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.
High Flying Sensations
vs. 
Matt Sydal vs. Human Tornado

It sucks that some of those matches that really would've sold the show to East Coast fans can't happen (PWG six man, Richards/Hero, Chuck/Sydal). I know IWA can't help it, but I don't think these were the best changes to make.
Iron Saints/KOW would've been a kick ass match. Instead the Saints are placed in a random Scramble Ladder Match. Weird. And I don't get why Ian didn't just make Taylor/Sydal non-title. Instead, they're going to rehash Sydal/Tornado, which I'm sure will kick ass. Just won't have the same feel as it probably would in PWG.
Oh well. Still looks like fun.
