Independent Wrestling Network started off their first event in the old GCW sports arena, now called the Fishcrow arena in front of a crowd
of around 400 people. Billy Roper and Dwayne Bell kick off the show and thank their sponsors and people who helped get the building
ready for tonight. The arena changed a lot. Gone is the ramp, the bathrooms are on the other side of where they use to be. Bell then
called out some guy named Jason and Wilson Vargas and presented them with certificates of appreciation for all of their hard work. It
was announced that starting a week from Monday, IWN will be doing a TV from Buffalo Wild Wings an hour before RAW. They then bring
out Phil Carter who was the ring announcer for the evening.
Carter was announcing who was going to be there tonight and the head of Market Relations Paul Warren, who is back with the company,
was in the ring. But before Warren and Carter could talk, out came the Southside Trash, Rowdy and Raunchy. Rowdy said that Carter
never mentioned the SST. Then SST attacked both Vargas who was fixing a turnbuckle and Warren. Out comes Buff Bagwell who tells the
Trash that they suck. He then introduced Rob Adonis. Bagwell tells Adonis that he'll have no problem with Mr. Hughes. Out comes Mr
Hughes and he said that he'll beat both of them down. Bagwell said to make it a 3 way, so IWN Commissioner Eddie Phillips said the
match is made and is for the IWN Heavyweight championship.
