--New England Wrestling runs tomorrow night in Theills,NY and 5/4 in Bloomfield, CT. GA tickets are only $10 for both nights. Tomorrow night's show at North Rockland High School in Thiells, NY had Booker T vs. Joey Matthews, Xavier vs. Samoa Joe, plus Jerry Lawler, Velvet Sky and Julio Dinero. In Bloomfield it's the Warhawk Rumble at the Bloomfield High School with Samoa Joe vs. Scott Steiner for the TNA title, Xaiver vs. Ron Zombie in a street fight plus Lawler, Sky and Jay Lethal

--A correction from yesterday's report. The Jerry Lawler vs. Kerry Von Erich match that aired both Tuesday and Wednesday night on ESPN Classics was a match in Nashville, not the more famous Superclash match from Chicago. It was a buildup where Von Erich pinned Lawler after a piledriver, but it was reversed because the piledriver was illegal, which Von Erich "didn't know," in the state of Tennessee. Lawler then claimed because in World Class, the title could change hands via DQ, that he should be both the AWA champ (which he was) and World Class champ (which Von Erich held at the time). The late Wednesday night show saw the Midnight Rockers of Shawn Michaels & Marty Jannetty over the original Midnight Express of Dennis Condrey & Randy Rose to win the AWA tag titles. Michaels and Paul Heyman (manager) were both in the TV main. Also, the guy we listed as Steve Travis in a match involving Mick Foley, was Billy Joe Travis. That made a lot more sense. There was also a guy named Samoan Joe, who was not the current Samoa Joe, who would have been a young child at that time.
