    -It's interesting to note that the above shows for Wichita, Des Moines, Ft.

    -I just got an email back from the Corel Centre in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada regarding the postponed WWF event. The staff said that they do not have a confirmed date for the show and don't know if it will be RAW is WAR. They said they should have more information by the end of August.



    Thanks to Adam Pilkinton for sending this in:

    -There is a Legends of Wrestling show taking place in Birmingham, AL in the next few weeks. Originally, Terry Gordy was supposed to be booked in a 6 man tag match against a few big names. Due to his untimely passing, the event will now be held in his honor, and Michael P.S. Hayes will be taking his place in the match.
