RassleBits: Brian Thompson, TLCW, NBW and Ken Wayne School Students

----Brian Thompson is booking the WFAC show that we advertised yesterday. Thompson has been around this area for a while now and I first met him at an ECW show in Popular Bluff in 2001. The kid is smart and has been around Bobby Eaton for a few years now, so that will not hurt anything. I wish him luck with WFAC and I hope the promotion does very good. It will give all the guys somewhere else to work on Friday nights.

----A few notes from the weekend shows…At the end of the Battle Royal in TLCW, the announcers actually said Tatt2 [Turbo] won, even though DK was standing in the ring alone. Tatt2 was suppose to win at the start of the show, but it changed when DK came up with the Dustin Starr idea…J. Weezy came during an intermission while Big Red was trying to get heat after a match in NBW. Red grabbed him up and was a little stiff with him. When will the young guys learn??

----I made note of Kid Nickles and Eric Wayne being trainees of Ken Wayne. I am being told that Eric and Nickles also work on Friday nights in Humboldt, TN for NWA Mid-South. They have got to work guys like Motley Cruz and Don Bass, so these guys can only improve. I look for them being two strong candidates for “rookie of the year” in 2007. A new guy, who refereed the other night in Batesville, is expected to start in a month to 6 weeks out of the Ken Wayne school and he is also getting good reviews.
