Wow, I've just been watching videos of it on YouTube & I never knew there was shows like this in Michigan. Some great Lucha Libre stars, LA Park, El Hijo Del Santo, Mil Mascaras, Dr. Wagner Jr. & even some great Indy talent like Chris Daniels & Chris Sabin. I'm defiantly gonna order the 3 shows. www.iwrwrestling.com/

Speaking of lucha, this has been driving me crazy, and you seem like a lucha authority. What's Lizmark Jr. doing these days, if anything? I always liked that guy. Sorry to steer this off topic, as well.

That IWR (i believe it was them) were passing out flyers at the fist TNA house show in Plymouth, MI. I wrote them off as a pathetic indy at the time. Now i see i may want to check them out (lives 2 hours west of IWR territory)!!!

Been to a few IWR shows in the area, including one of the Revolucha's a couple years ago... The headliner was El Hijo Del Santo... I remember the show having a ton of Mexican fans in attendance, and they all went absolutely nuts for El Hijo... I felt so ridiculously out of place when he first came out, because he spoke strictly in Spanish, all the while the fans were chanting stuff back in Spanish... The main event turned out to be pretty bad, El Hijo/Konnan vs. La Parka/Some American jobber in a mask... Same event saw Jim Duggan vs. Conrad Kennedy III... But it was matches with Daniels and Sabin that saved the show...
Also, that same year, the first match was a 6 man tag match that had a pretty cool spot. At one point, 2 people were outside of the ring, and, one by one, every person in the match did some sort of plancha or springboard to the outside, including the valet. While everyone was getting back up, the referee was being told to jump out, and all of a sudden ran to the top rope and hit a pretty sweet looking moonsault on everyone... Definitely a memorable spot
