Tidbits: Alabama results, TGB, OSCW and another Paragould promotion???

-----I got some results from Alabama that I forgot to post. Ultra-NWA Scottsboro, AL [about one hour from Hunstville, AL] 9.16.06: Chad Alan beat Chris Lee; Justin Envy beat Neil Taylor – they ran an angle to set up the main event; K-G beats Brevin Hold and in the Main Event: Evny/Alan/Holt over Taylor/Steve Plezing/Cecil…Gate was in the $1500 range with 225 in attendance…The only guys I know from these results are Taylor and Envy. I always remember Envy being a pretty good worker and a super nice guy.

-----“The Golden Boy” Greg Anthony will begin his booking duties on October 7, 2006 at the new Dyersburg promotion. This will be after his wedding and honeymoon. Congrats to TGB and Jeanna.

----OSCW informed me today that they did offer refunds at the front door and let everyone know that there would not be a barbwire thumbtack match. Not one person decided to go home. A big thumbs up to the crew in Paragould for offering a refund. Not enough of that kind of stuff happens in the biz.

----Speaking of Paragould, AR, I got an IM from Allen Withrow who is claming to be the booking agent for a new promotion in the Paragould/Jonesboro area. The promotion will be called Continental Wrestling Federation. He sent the following : CWF is currently scouting talent for the Arkansas, Tennessee and Missouri area. We require a VHS or DVD of a recent match or matches , resume and picture. We are looking for all forms or wrestling talent from wrestlers to valets and especially cruiserweights for our cruiser division. All tapes can be sent to CWF wrestling, 4104 Orion Dr., Paragould, AR 72450. You can e-mail him if you want more info @ cwf_wrestling_prod@yahoo.com.
