Torch Indy Weekend Preview: Credible, Sabu, Samoa Joe, Delirious, Low Ki, Strong

Sep 7, 2007 - 11:32:00 AM


By Chris Vetter, Torch Contributor

Torch Indy Reporter Chris Vetter travels thousands of miles each year to see dozens of indy shows all over the Midwest. His reports covering the entire U.S. Indy Scene are usually published exclusively here at PWTorch.com every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

WEEKEND PREVIEW, NEWS & NOTES

Welcome back! The big show this weekend is in Jersey All Pro. The stacked lineup on Saturday features Low Ki & Samoa Joe vs. Homicide & Hotstuff Hernandez, B-Boy vs. Jay Lethal vs. Azrieal vs. Grim Reefer, Frankie Kazarian vs. Chris Hero, Sonjay Dutt vs. Eddie Kingston. That is an impressive lineup! Learn more about this exciting promotion at www.japw.net.

IWA Mid-South has a planned triple-shot in Indiana, kicking off tonight with the best-looking show of the weekend, with Delirious, Roderick Strong, B.J. Whitmer and Davey Richards all on the card. The show on Saturday is a hardcore event, and the matches there don’t interest me much.

A new promotion getting started tonight is Pro Wrestling Syndicate, also in New Jersey. They have an interesting lineup (posted below) featuring Samoa Joe, Chris Hero, Abyss, Jay Lethal, and older ECW names like Sabu and Justin Credible.

AAW returns to suburban Chicago on Saturday with a huge lineup that features Nigel McGuinness, B.J. Whitmer, Alex Shelley, Chris Sabin, Zach Gowen, Jimmy Jacobs, Jerry Lynn and Arik Cannon. More info is below. I recently finished watching another AAW DVD, and I hope to post that review sometime next week.

And you can always reach me with your indy results at chrisjvetter@hotmail.com. I request that you remember to say date, location (including building, city & state!), and full name of the promotion.

WEEKEND RESULTS

Nothing new to report.
