Two years ago, Nicky Free wrestled Austin Aries in a classic. Nicky gave the match of his life against a great wrestler like Aries. Now that he's in TNA, not sure if Aries will be making an appearance. I hope so. IPW is a very good indy promotion. Worth checking out.

Can someone ask Apter why he thought Big Bully Busik was good? I mean aside from that fantastic moustache. And if Prazak asked Apter to destroy all the Shimmer girls doing creepy apartment wrestling videos?

The trip to Waterloo may be about 4 to 5 hours drive from the Chicago area but it'll be worth it. |
