Quick Hits for 12/4/12

-- holy shit, In Your Face Wrestling is for real with this "Memories, Moments, and Mayhem" convention they are putting on March 16th in Ballston Spa, NY. They just announced TOMMY DREAMER and AL SNOW. Pretty awesome. I imagine Will and I will get to speculating on just WHO they might face at the show that evening. Which IYFW talent will get the rub? Interesting question. And holier shit! Maxx Burton is stepping down as IYFW Authority Figure?!? I never thought I'd be sad to type that. Maxx is fun in this role. I am personally bummed. Is it possible?!? Do I suddenly... TRUST you, Maxx Burton?!? You fiend. Apparently, the new "boss" will be revealed at their January show. My vote is for Tino. What? There's no (official) vote? Let your voice be heard in our Facebook poll!

-- 787 Pro Wrestling is still set to debut January 13th, despite some confusion regarding pseudo-cancelled Facebook "events" on the ole social media that had some people scratching their heads. But guess what... Their advertised card has changed! It has also leaked and we have it. Check it out:

- they are still planning on a 30-man battle royale, winner faces Giant Pharoah. Presumably for the 787 Championship.
- Viper the American Ninja and Este Tipo vs The Joint Task Force: Sgt.Fury and Corporal Saint
- "Royalty" William King will take on Eric Alden
- Chris Envy vs. "Buttery" Bert Williams
- Vince Beach vs. JP Black
- Foxx Vinyer vs. Coconut Jones
- The Purists vs. Adam Badger and Shiloh
- CJ Scott against "The Party Peacock" Dalton Castle
- battle royale winner vs Pharoah
- and probably one other match


Guess what? Card subject to change. This is just what we received quite anonymously. Looks to be a really interesting show worth checking out!

I will offer this promotion the same advice I give every new federation... Whatever you do... please guys... Don't put the belt on the booker on the first show. Yeah. I said it. I get worried. Nothing but love.

-- this Friday night starting at 7pm on Wrestlefudge.com it's WrestlefudgeTV LIVE - back home in Studio 68 - our guests this week will explode your brain. Remember a few weeks ago when we unexpectedly cancelled our show and you were all real sad? We want to give those scheduled guests their god damned due and such! That's right... This Friday we will ask IYFW Heavyweight Champion PIERRE "The Beast" VACHON how it feels to prove EVERY critic wrong and still maintain a stranglehold at the top of In Your Face Wrestling... We will finally hear from the tippy-top of new promotion, Sensory Overload Lucha-libre, and we expect that to be COMPLETELY ridiculous! More guest announcements to come! (Note: we wanted to get "Royalty" William King on our show, but he has a prior engagement! We hope to have him on soon and really look forward to hearing from him!)

-- did you miss World of Hurt last Friday? Do you want to see it from the ONLY bad seat* in the house with some fun commentary? Did you also miss our 5-hour coverage of the event? Be sure to check it out and scratch BOTH of those aforementioned itches. We talked to fans as well as Pure Dynamite, Michael Anthony, 2Rad Kyle Brad, Jim Tanner, Danger and Jeff Starr, JP Black, Adam Badger, Fronz Roddy, The Joint Task Force, Shiloh, Swinger Sidusky, Famed Photographer Gary Braham, the lovely Reby Sky and probably MANY MORE! What a great night! We have been told that we are more than welcome at the NEXT WOHW show so STAY TUNED! We can't wait!

-- our thoughts are with friend of the 'fudge, Jay Simola, host of "Passing the Torch Radio" on blogtalkradio, who is dealing with some health issues right now. Get well soon, Jay!

(*there is no bad seat at the Whitehall Armory. It just doesn't translate well to our weak camera. Be sure to look for the ippv when it is released!)
