Now on to the announced matches:

IWA Mid-South World Heavyweight Title Match

vs.

"Last of a Dying Breed" Eddie Kingston vs. Too Cold Scorpio

Eddie Kingston had just won the IWA Mid-South World Heavyweight Title by outlasting Chris Hero, Chuck Taylor and Mike Quackenbush in a 4 way elimination match on Ian Rotten's Retirement Show when the first man into the ring to congratulate him was Too Cold Scorpio. The lovefest was short lived however as the Too Cold Scorpio quickly used the opportunity to become the first one to issue a challenge to the new champion for a title shot. Eddie Kingston showed what kind of a fighting champion he would be when he accepted the challenge saying that it would be an honor to be in the same ring with Scorpio and an even bigger honor to defeat him!

Fans Requested Tag Team Warfare

vs.

LuFisto & Mickie Knuckles vs. Vulgar Display of Power

After LuFisto defeated Mickie Knuckles for the 2007 Queen of the Death Match title, the fans in attendance voiced their opinion that they wanted to see the 2007 Queen team with the 2006 Queen of the Death Matches. They not only wanted them to team, they wanted them to take on the 2007 Double Death Tag Team Death Match champions Brain Damage & Deranged. While the match will not take place in Plainfield, Indiana, Ian Rotten still heard them loud and clear and will be giving the fans the match at the 500th Show in Joliet, Illinois. LuFisto and Mickie have a lot of naysayers that think they shouldn't be in the ring with the VDOP. They will be fighting not only two of the toughest men in wrestling but also the stereotypes and prejudices against them from the fans that think that women can't be as tough as the men. Will the naysayers be proven right or will it be a stand up and take notice event to remember for all involved?

IWA Strong Style Title - 4 Way Elimination - Knockout or Submission Only

vs. vs. vs.

Drake Younger vs. Roderick Strong vs. Michael Elgin vs. Viking

IWA will be forming a new title for the strong style guys to fight for and this will be 4 great competitors to vie to become the first ever IWA Mid-South Strong Style Champion. Fans have been asking for IWS' Viking to make his debut in IWA Mid-South and he will...but he will have his hands full when he has to take on Drake, Roderick and Elgin. Who can survive this ultimate fight to the finish when only knockout or submission can eliminate your opponents?

I Quit Match

vs.

Jimmy Jacobs vs. "Serial Killer" Jack Thriller

Thriller has forced Jimmy to tap out two times to the figure four leglock in their two previous matches of late in IWA Mid-South. Jimmy Jacobs is embarrassed and pissed off that he can't defeat the "Serial Killer" and now he wants to prove that his knee injury is healed enough for him to start to return the favor on Thriller.

[glow=red,2,300]NEW MATCHES ADDED!!!!![/glow]

Styles Clash - Strong Style vs. Hardcore

vs.

"Mr. Insanity" Toby Klein vs. Davey Richards

Toby is a former IWA Mid-South World Heavyweight Champion and King of the Death Matches (making the finals three years in a row!) The last time we had a show full of style clashes between hardcore and strong style, strong style won. Toby is looking to defend the honor of the hardcore guys and make amends for his defeat on that show. Davey Richards is looking to gain a victory over one of the most accomplished competitors in IWA history and prove that it wasn't a fluke when the strong style guys defeated the hardcore guys.

IWA Mid-South Tag Team Title Match

vs. &

Iron Saints vs. BLKOUT (Sabian & Joker)

The Iron Saints will try to show that they are still the most dominant team in recent IWA Mid-South history as they take on one of the most establish teams on the east coast in the form of Joker & Sabian representing BLKOUT. This will be a tough contest for the Saints as they will try to keep BLKOUT from joining Eddie Kingston as title holders in IWA Mid-South.

TLC Open Contract Match
(No one can go for the contract until all 8 competetors are in the ring!)
The contract will be dangling up above the middle of the ring. The one who reaches it will get a shot at ANY title they choose when they decide to use it. Even if the winner wants to take on a tag partner and go after the tag titles, they are allowed to do so!
