Card so far:
Connor Hopkins defends his newly won IWA World Title against the man tied for the most IWA World Title reigns in history at 8 and a 2 time TPI winner and only man to ever win it in back to back years (2017 and 2018): Aaron Williams. This was a dream match for many fans as soon as the IWA World Title was announced as being brought back to life and that Connor was the new champion. Can the baddest man on the planet make history and become the man with the most title reigns in history as a 9x champion or will the 9th IWA World Champion in Fannin Family history keep the title in the Family? If the fighting on Twitter and in the locker room of the last St. Louis Anarchy show are any indication, both men will go to great extremes to leave the Irving Theater as champion. ***Update: Aaron Williams reached out to Jimmy Jacobs and now Jimmy Jacobs will be the special enforcer for this match to make sure that The Fannin Family doesn't interfere****
Former IWA World Champion and Former 2x IWA Mid South Tag Team Champion Eddie Kingston takes on Former IWA World Champion and Tag Champion Calvin Tankman. Part 2 of the triple main event for this show is going to be a hoss match between 2 former IWA World Champions that has been a dream match for fans in the Indianapolis area for quite some time. These two do have history as Calvin Tankman was the third man in the Freebird Rule when Eddie Kingston and Homicide were IWA Tag Champs in 2017 and Tankman would step in to defend the titles when either Kingston or Homicide wasn't there and it was actually Tankman that lost the tag titles in a 2 on 1 handicap match trying to defend the titles by himself.
In a hardcore tag team match, or Rejects Rules tag team match, it will be The Rejects - John Wayne Murdoch and Reed Bentley will face off against Unsigned and Don't Care - Gary Jay and Anakin Murphy. Both Reed and John are former IWA World Champions. John is a former King of the Death Matches and together The Rejects are two of the most prolific deathmatch wrestlers in the world. Gary Jay is just as accomplished and world traveled as The Rejects and Anakin Murphy is among the future superstars in death match wrestling. The Rejects will have to win over his dead body.
In a Indiana Heritage Wrestling Women's Title match, Davina Thorne, just seen on AEW, sponsored by wonksjunk.com will be taking on the Indiana Heritage Wrestling Women's Champion: Gwen Neodonna!
Brian Gorta just joined The Fannin Family at the one year anniversary show for Bloodstone Wrestling. He will be teaming with Trik Davis as they take on the tag team of August Matthews and Davey Bang.
Just announced...there will be a Fannin Family Invitational Scramble Match on the show. Connor Hopkins, The Rejects, and Trik Davis each were going to invite a young wrestler they see potential in to compete in a scramble match. Just J and Jess Bees Knees were not happy that they were left out of this invitational so they demanded a pick. Connor Hopkins was distraught after losing the Dreamwave Championship so he gave his pick to Nick Maniwa. Prophet of Ash was then mad that Maniwa and the commentary duo of Just J and Jess Bees Knees got picks so he made a pick as well. It is now a six person scramble match and the chaos continues.
There will also be some pre-show activities including a meet and greet with everyone on the show and a live recording of Fannin's Flashbacks with IWA Mid South Legends.
Already announced for IWA Mid South Legends on the show:
"Mean" Mitch Page, Mad Man Pondo, Corporal Robinson, Todd Morton (Michael Todd Stratton), Suicide Kid, "The Rugby Thug" Trent Baker, "The Babe Magnet" Harry Palmer, and Hy Zaya.
