----I liked the angle with Jon Michael, but it makes no sense when he is wrestling just down the road in Newbern for NBW. If he was going to take some time off, then the injury thing is good, but since it is reported here and other web sites that he wrestled in NBW it just makes it silly...Who were the Bikers?? That was an odd angle??...I got a chance to watch White vs Lee. A little slow in the front from two of the top four ranked workers in the RRO Top 10. All psychology with Lee getting a lot of shine with White running away. Not my favorite kind of match, but the crowd was hot - just all pure psychology getting the match over. [A lost art that these two guys can do] I have seen White in this building before and he got tons of heat. Pace picked up when White started heat. Garry tripped Lee to start it. Finish had Garry involved and them choking Lee after bout. Melton making the save and the teacher/student angle will be good. The stuff with White in Melton’s face at the end was very good....This group also is planning to run the following shows...

Friday, April 3rd - Brownsville Rec Center (Old Ntl. Guard Armory) Brownsville, TN
Thursday, April 9th - Waverly, TN
Friday, April 17th - Lexington, TN
Friday, April 24th - McKenzie, TN*

----I hope they do better than LAW in the same building in Brownsville. I think LAW had 5 paid customers. Waverly and Lexington have not drawn good crowds in a long time either.
