I have Mid American Wrestling and IWA Mid-South news. Tonight is the NO ROPE EXPLODING BARBED WIRE MATCH!! Need I say more? Hardcore Craig + Ian Rotten * Barbed Wire = BOOM!
I also have bad news, Mid American Wrestling will no longer be running shows in The Knights of Columbus Hall. The article that appeared in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel on Sunday, June 10th that you can read here http://www.jsonline.com/lifestyle/people/jun01/wrestle10060701.asp caused some controversy and now MAW can't run at Knights.
As always, this news comes from the MAW and IWA Mid-South Newsletters. Stacy does an awesome job with them, and you can subscirbe at the Link Gimmick at the bottom of this edition of Indyvelopments.
MAW NEWS FOR 06/14/01

--MID AMERICAN WRESTLING TO NO LONGER RUN SHOWS AT KNIGHTS
--DESPITE SETBACK, PROMOTION FORGES AHEAD
What most fans and employees of Mid American Wrestling viewed as an excellent article this past Sunday in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel-- an article which did not paint the promotion or its hardcore style matches in a negative way-- has ultimately led to the company losing its main venue since 1995, the Knights of Columbus hall on 92nd Street in West Allis.
Due to negative reaction from outspoken religious groups after the article ran in the paper, the Knights will no longer rent the building to MAW for future live events. The article regarding this decision, which ran in yesterday's Journal Sentinel as a follow-up to the promotion profile on Sunday, can be read below in its entirety.
Despite losing Knights, MAW will continue on in a new venue in the Milwaukee area that has yet to be determined. In the interim, the promotion has shows scheduled for this Saturday, June 16th at K.P.'s Classics in Muskego/Big Bend, WI (I-43 and Hwy 164), August 17th at Dairyland Greyhound Park in Kenosha, WI, and a return date is likely for later in the summer at K.P.'s. The article appeared in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel on Wednesday, June 13th. The article can be accessed online at http://www.jsonline.com/news/metro/jun01/knights13061201a.asp

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.
