For more information, interviews, or photo's please visit http://www.prowrestlinginternational.com Jeff Wilen sent this in from April Hunter's mailing list I just wanted to address some rumors going around-mainly on http://www.geocities.com/neinformer. I have not "left" Chaotic Wrestling; my contract simply ran out and I decided I didn't want to renew it. I only signed for a few months to try it out due to having a major fear of commitment. I don't even like signing a lease. I'll still be working on Chaotic shows when I have open dates. It's just that it's now time for me to move on and start traveling more. The guys at CW (www.chaoticwrestling.com) have been very good to me and I've learned more than you could imagine working for them this summer. They were the only federation in New England to book me to actually WORK, not valet. And for that, I'm extremely grateful to them. Since I know Slyk Wagner Brown ( http://www.SlykWagnerBrown.net ) and I share many of the same fans, I'm relaying that he has decided to amicably dissolve his CW contract to free up time to travel as well. We both know that it's important to get out there, be seen and work with many people in order to grow. Anyone that knows either one of us knows we're more than willing to help anyone and everyone. Whether it is in school, on shows, shooting photos for the wrestlers, you name it. Likewise, many have helped me as well. Most of the guys at school and on shows seem to be good people. The only ones I don't go out of my way for are the ones who have already stabbed me in the back. (Also, please realize that most times parts of my newsletters are done in my 'heel' character when I'm talking about wrestling. I play someone who thinks they're 'all that'. If some are taking it as real.well, that's their problem.) While I've met many super cool people in this business, there are some very strange individuals who feel the need to be hurtful or vengeful. Even the modeling industry wasn't as catty or jealous as wrestling can be. I've learned to take much with a grain of salt, believe none of what I hear and only half of what I see. It's a shame, but it seems that if you want to move on, better yourself or stand up for yourself in this business you are labeled as having a "bad attitude", "big head" or are "forgetting where you came from" by some. Ah, well. At the end of the day, you have to please yourself and keep moving on. I guess if we stopped to care what people said about us, we stay in that same spot forever. Which would suck ass. My schedule for September is as follows: *Friday the 7th-Chaotic Wrestling-Lawrence, MA. Arch and April Kincaid in a tag match against One Night Stand! *Saturday the 15th-Killer Kowalski's All-Star Wrestling-Suffolk Downs, MA. Arch and April tag against Vince Vicallo and Amanda Storm. *Saturday the 22st-Jim Kettner's ECWA-St. Matthew's Parish in Wilmington, DE. April Hunter and Slyk Wagner Brown. We are really looking forward to seeing our friends and fans from Philly and NJ at this show! Doors open at 6 PM for a 1-hour autograph session. Show starts at 7 PM. This should be a killer show. There will be a 4-way Super8 match with Christopher Daniel's vs. Lo Ki vs. American Dragon vs. Scoot Andrews. (http://www.ecwaprowrestling.com) *24th-my birthday. ECW's Dawn Marie (www.dawnmarieecw.com)and I might be teaming up on a wrestling show in YOUR town soon. I met and wrestled Dawn on a CW show and found her to not only be cute as hell, but a pretty decent wrestler. With a devastating drop kick, I might add. Kisses! Hope to see you at the shows! And feel free to bring your signs. -April http://www.aprilhunter.com Mike DeMarco sent this in I have decided to auction off some of my very unique steel chairs. I have a very rare "Nature Boy" Ric Flair signed chair with "14+ World Champion" and "Whooo!" inscriptions included below his signature. Ric is a very tough signature to obtain and I have never seen him sign something like this before. In addition to the Flair chair I have chairs with inscriptions signed by Raven, "The Franchise" Shane Douglas, "Big Sexy" Kevin Nash and the entire ECW Lockeroom up for auction. Please take a look as candid photos of the superstars signing the items are also included. Thank you very much and you can check out these items at http://cgi6.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewListedItems&userid=demarco@adelphia.net
