"Sunday Bloody Sunday" is one of MAW's Signature Events, eclipsed only by Summer Sizzler. I have the first Sunday Bloody Sunday on videotape (Rev. Axl Future vs. Ian Rotten in a falls count anywhere match was the main event) and that show was awesome. I guess that The Reverend Axl Future won't be at Sunday Bloody Sunday, but hopefully he will be in MAW for Summer Sizzler. (Rev, e-mail me and let me know what's up!)
MAW NEWS FOR 06/01/01

by Stacy McMackin, Moderator
Mid American Wrestling returns to the Knights of Columbus (1800 S. 92nd Street) in West Allis, WI **THIS SUNDAY EVENING**, June 3rd. PLEASE NOTE THE SPECIAL SUNDAY BELL TIME OF 6PM. This event will be MAW "Sunday Bloody Sunday IV." Tickets are available in advance at Knights or at the door on the night of the event.
The show will feature the 3rd Annual Street Fight Weapons Battle Royal, with the winner to face Ian Rotten for the number one contender spot to Hardcore Craig's MAW Title later in the evening. If you were there on 08/18/00 for last year's royal, it was one of the most memorable and most talked about MAW matches of the year, which saw Dino Bambino come out the victor, and win the MAW Championship later in the night from Corporal Robinson.
Also on the card, the newly formed tag team of Matt Longtime and Chuckie Smooth will get a shot at the Double D's tag belts! Plus, in what could be the match to steal the show, two of the top young independent wrestlers in the midwest today, CM Punk and Colt Cabana, will do battle in a singles contest. These two have battled across the midwest since breaking into the business together at Chicago's Steel Domain wrestling school just 2 years ago. It's bound to be a match worth the price of admission alone.
Here's a look at the announced lineup for this Sunday night's event...

*****Number One Contender Match*****
IAN ROTTEN --VS.-- Winner of the Battle Royal
*****3rd Annual Fans Bring The Weapons*****

DIRECTIONS TO THE IWA HOUSE OF HARDCORE
----------------------------------------------
Directions to the IWA House Of Hardcore From Louisville: Take I-65 North to exit 6A. From there you will take exit 10B. This leads you into Charlestown, Indiana. Follow that road for about 7 miles (stay in the right lane because it will split with Indiana-3). Past the split, you will come across a gravel road next to a sign for IWA Wrestling. Take a right on that gravel road and the IWA House of Hardcore will be on your left side. If coming from the North: Take I-65 South to exit 6A. Then follow the directions above.

Next up is news from Extreme Canadian Championship Wrestling, which is a part of The National Wrestling Alliance. Tradition Rules! The ECCW News comes from their website. They have a newsletter that you can subscribe to by visiting their website. I've got a ton of match results, and Tommy Dreamer, Steve Corino and Sabu are coming to ECCW, and Christopher Daniels and Nova are already there.
What a night in Surrey! Quite possibly a match of the year took place when "THE FALLEN ANGEL" CHRISTOPHER DANIELS and former ECW wrestler NOVA tore the house down with a 5 star match! Daniels will now face NWA/ECCW Heavyweight Champion DR. LUTHER on June 29th in Surrey. Some questionable tactics allowed THE BACKWOODS MILITIA to keep their Tag Team Belts over the GOD and CHANCE BECKETT (with some help from BUNNY) retained his title against SCOTTY MAC in an AWESOME high flyin' match. JUGGERNAUT kept his Hardcore title by DESTROYING BRIAN BEDLAM. After calling out anyone in the backroom to face him in the ring, COMMISSIONER DAVE REPUBLIC emerged to tell him that on June 29th Juggernaut would be facing former ECW wrestler, the Innovator of Violence - TOMMY DREAMER!
It was also announced that the July SUMMER SLIZZER TOUR would feature NWA Heavyweight Champion STEVE CORINO and former ECW wrestler and NWA World Champion SABU. Tickets will be on sale soon!
