ElitePro 1-19-08: MAKE YOUR MARK

Due to illness and injury, a few of the talents signed for "Make Your Mark" have had to be pulled from the lineup, new names added and more.

First, Nick Brubaker was scheduled to make his ElitePro debut on Saturday night. Brubaker recently suffered a shoulder injury and was hoping he would be ready in time for "Make Your Mark". After testing out his shoulder this past weekend, he felt he wasn't ready to have the caliber of match that he wanted in his debut. ElitePro officials have agreed to give Brubaker another chance at an upcoming ElitePro event.

Second, Acid Jaz has been under the weather this week and is unsure whether or not he will be physically ready to wrestle this Saturday. Marshe Rockett and C-Red will still be in attendance this Saturday.

Third, Vito Thomaselli is unsure whether or not he will be able to wrestle in the main event of the evening. He has a doctor's appointment on Friday and the results of that visit will determine if he can wrestle. Should he not be able to wrestle this Saturday, he will be replaced in the main event by "The Real Deal" Jay Jensen. Should Vito be able to wrestle, Jensen will be put in another singles match elsewhere on the card.

That was the bad news.

The good news is that to compensate for some of the lost talent, ElitePro officials have added some new names for "Make Your Mark".

First, "Pure Dynamite" Billy Roc will return to ElitePro this Saturday after debuting in Season 1 and participating as a member of Team IWA MidSouth at the Showcase at TPI Weekend.

Roc's match has already been signed, as he will take on "Mr. M80" Marshe Rockett w/C-Red, one-on-one in Mokena. This is a "clash-in-styles" that ElitePro officials believe will make for one heck of a match.

Second, two more young wrestlers from downstate Illinois have been added to the show. Brett Gakiya and Axis will make their ElitePro debuts at "Make Your Mark". Their matches have yet to be determined.

Third, Mike Horning has been signed to participate at "Make Your Mark". His match has not yet been determined.

I hope Vito is ok, and I also hope he gets a new haircut.
