Southern Extreme Championship Wrestling was forced to make major changes in the lineup for last night’s show in Villa Rica. According to booker Ted Allen, several of his regulars (Cru Jones, Frankie Valentine, and John Rodriguez) and the debuting A.J. Steele were contacted by Great Championship Wrestling, where they are also employed, and offered double their money not to work for SECW. Quentin Michaels responded that GCW wants exclusive use of their talent in that area of the state because they are getting TV there and plan to run shows.
Bull Buchanan, currently the SECW and GCW Champion, canceled scheduled appearances for both companies this weekend. Buchanan was called to Japan by NOAH to substitute for the injured Bryan Danielson.
