Hello everyone and welcome to your Sunday Indy Wrestle Line update, I am your weekend warrior Randy Klemme.
First off, One quick birthday shoutout for this week, EWF's Hurricane celebrating a birthday next Friday so if you see Hurricane wish him a Happy Birthday...
To Terry in New Castle, I totally agree with you on Vince McMahon having a hand in getting the match between Jerry Lawler and Hulk Hogan cancelled in Memphis. Lawler is used so little in the ring, I really couldn't see how it would hurt, EXCEPT he didn't want Hulk Hogan to have the glory again because of some recent problems between the two. I have heard this show is Hogan's show and not Lawler. McMahon has to have his hands in everything.
Don't forget next weekend is the EWF X-8 Tournament and right now on option 3 of the Indy Wrestle Line you can hear from another of the particpants as Greg Carey interviews former WWE Superstar Tank Toland on the HotSeat...
Also a reminder my 10-Falls interview this week is with northern Indiana Wrestling Star Chase Richards. That interview can be found in the Independents Day section of themidwestinsider.com or on my MySpace page at midwestinsiderrandy in the blog section. By the way, next week I will have a SPECIAL interview with Tough Enough 3 winner and OVW Superstar Matt Capotelli, as I go 10-rounds with him next weekend....
A couple of quick news notes....for fans of the Madison Square Gardens Classics on the MSG Network, you'll need to mark May 16th on your calendar as that is the return date for the shows...
Tonight is TNA Lockdown on PPV. There are questions as to who Christy Hemme's mystery team will be against VKM. Apparently TNA was unable to find a suitable tag team, so the two participants will be from the main roster and the match has been moved to the pre-show.
Speaking of TNA, they will be at the Louisville Gardens next Friday for a house show. Ticketmaster still has good seats remaining for the show....
