I don't know what's going on over in Illinois, but man, there's wrestling companies popping up all over the place over there that are bringing in some top-notch talent. I realize that the cost of traveling right now is insane and quite honestly, I don't even know how many (if any) of these shows I'll even be able to check out. But, since things have been so dead on this board lately, I thought I'd post some info about these shows for anyone who might be interested.
First, IWAU is planning some pretty cool shows coming up for their still free Wed. night shows in Olney, IL. Next Wed. (May 4th) they're bringing in Jimmy Jacobs and Zach Gowen. Then, on May 14th, they're bringing in Akira Tozawa...and I plan to make it to that one, for sure!
Then, I just found out about a company that IWAU is apparently working with in Mt. Vernon, IL called Pro Wrestling Prestige and they run shows on Sunday afternoons. Here's they're Facebook page....and check who they've got booked in the next several months: www.facebook.com/pages/Pro-Wrestling-Prestige/143234222396920
May 22nd: Davey Richards...and he's going to be facing Shank Barzini!
June 19th: EL GENERICO!!!!!!!! (I'm going to try really hard to make it to that one!)
July 24th: Jay Lethal
Also, I just looked a little closer and these PWP shows are only TWO bucks!
Then, on top of all THAT, St. Louis Anarchy is running another show in O'Fallon, IL on May 21st. They've announced one match so far:
U-30 Title Match
Akira Tozawa vs. Arik Cannon vs. Gerald James (Gary Jay) vs. ACH
And they've also announced:
Dingo
Rachel Summerlyn
Shane Hollister
Jessica James
Evan Gelistico
Dan Walsh
And I'm sure there will be a lot more announced as that show gets closer.
Like I said, I don't know which of these I'll be able to make, but I'll post reports of any that I do. As I always say, I just find it a shame that there's so much going on over there in Illinois right now and we can't get any of it here in Indiana.
