SHIMMER TITLE MATCH AT ROH "RISING ABOVE!"
------------------------------------------------------------------

Ring of Honor filmed "Rising Above" for a January 2009 Pay-Per-View release this past Saturday, November 22nd, at the Frontier Fieldhouse in Chicago Ridge, IL.

Among the matches on the card, SHIMMER Champion MsChif put the title on the line against former SHIMMER Champion Sara Del Rey. Sara was accompanied to the ring by her ROH agent Larry Sweeney, who negotiated for Del Rey's rematch for the title to take place in ROH competition, where Del Rey has been dominant in recent months. MsChif ultimately retained the title after hitting the Desecrator to score the pinfall.

Photos from the match are currently available at http://www.topropephotography.com/ courtesy of photographer Ricky Havilk, who was ringside for the bout.

MsChif will make her next defense of the SHIMMER Championship on Friday, December 5th, as ROH debuts in the St. Louis area at the Gateway Center in Collinsville, IL. Chif will take on perhaps the woman who knows her best out of all of the wrestlers on the SHIMMER roster, Daizee Haze!

RING OF HONOR INKS DEAL WITH DIRECTV!
------------------------------------------------------------------

- First PPV Event to air on DIRECTV in early 2009

- ROH Classics to be launched on DIRECTV on Demand platform

- ROH programming now available in more than 80 MM HH


New York, November 20, 2008 - Ring Of Honor Wrestling (ROH), in association with G-Funk Sports & Entertainment, has concluded programming and distribution deals for PPV and VOD wrestling content with DIRECTV, making the critically-acclaimed ROH brand available for the first time ever to approximately 17.3 million additional American households. In total, ROH programming is now available in more than 80 million households throughout North America.

ROH owner Cary Silkin made the announcement today with G-Funk’s President Ken Gelman. The debut event, entitled "Rising Above," will be taped November 22 in Chicago, Illinois from the Frontier Fieldhouse and will premiere on DIRECTV in early 2009.

For the first time, ROH will debut "ROH Classics" on DIRECTV on Demand in early 2009. Approximately ten-hours of classic wrestling programming content from the ROH vaults will appear monthly on the platform. The best matches, rivalries and stars in ROH history will be featured.

"This latest programming deal with DIRECTV marks another major step in our evolution as a wrestling company," said Mr. Silkin. "We’re excited to bring our loyal fans more of the first-rate wrestling product they’ve come to know from ROH over the years, and to introduce our unique brand of wrestling to legions of new fans on the DIRECTV platform."

To date, ROH has premiered nine PPV titles since July 2007. In addition to DIRECTV, ROH currently has distribution deals with iN DEMAND, DISH Network and TVN in the U.S. and Viewer’s Choice and Bell ExpressVu in Canada.

Long revered by a loyal underground fan base, the Philadelphia-based ROH appeals to the disenfranchised wrestling fan fed up with storylines that seem to take precedence over the kind of powerful ring competition that ROH specializes in. ROH, in fact, is seen to have the highest level of athleticism in its field today, as evidenced by the numerous awards ROH has had bestowed upon them.

G-Funk Sports and Entertainment will continue to handle all marketing and promotion for the wrestling programs, as it has since ROH’s debut on PPV in 2007. PPV and ROH Classics marketing materials will remain available on ROH’s affiliate website, www.rohwrestlingaffiliates.com including easy-to-implement marketing materials and all event and programming information. A range of targeted national consumer advertising and promotion will also support each event and program.

According to Mr. Gelman, "ROH programming has proven to be the best value in the PPV and VOD business for the better part of two years now. This latest deal with DIRECTV ensures that a greater number of rabid wrestling fans will enjoy ROH content well into 2009 and beyond."

ABOUT RING OF HONOR

Ring of Honor Wrestling (ROH) based in Philadelphia, PA was conceived by passionate businessmen (and long-time wrestling fans) who felt the current professional wrestling product had strayed from the early roots of the sport to a travesty of wild story lines and improbable scenarios. ROH was created as a response to fans that appreciated the athleticism and entertainment that the sport can bring. The term "combat art" has also been used to describe ROH’s unique style.

ABOUT G-FUNK SPORTS & ENTERTAINMENT

G-Funk Sports & Entertainment is a full-service agency dedicated to brand activation, strategic integration and driving maximum return on investment for its clients, headed up by Award-winning NHL and WWE marketing and television veteran Ken Gelman. G-Funk’s strengths center on three primary areas, Marketing Services (consumer promotion, affiliate activation and events), Partnership Alliances and Content Management (including distribution drives and launch strategies). Client partners include the National Football League, Impulse One, the Arena Football League, Rainbow Media and Ring Of Honor.

ROH BLACK FRIDAY SALE IS COMING!!!
------------------------------------------------------------------

This Friday is the biggest shopping day of the year, and that will include a huge sale at ROHwrestling.com!

I don't know the specifics of this year's Black Friday Sale, but it is typically a huge % off deal, which means it will be the perfect time to pick up any SHIMMER DVD titles which are missing from your collection at their lowest price ever.

Last year's Black Friday Sale % off figures changed over the course of the weekend. From Friday morning until early afternoon, they offered the largest % off savings. From Friday late afternoon to Saturday morning, it was a slightly smaller % off figure. Then from Saturday afternoon to Sunday morning, a smaller % off figure.

Again, I'm not sure what the Black Friday savings will be this year, but in case they do something similar again this year, be sure to check the ROH web site on Friday morning to make sure you don't miss the cutoff for the biggest savings of the weekend!

Today is November 6, 2008.

It's been three years since the debut SHIMMER event.

It has become a bit of a tradition that with each passing year that this company has been in existence, I extend a huge thank you to every individual who has made it possible along the way. Many of those people have been a part of this project from the very beginning, and have remained a part of the team for a solid three years now, contributing in their own way to making a serious United States based entirely female professional wrestling promotion a success.

When we ran our first show, there was no way I would have expected to one day be celebrating three years of producing both a DVD product for the fans, and also providing a platform for the most talented women wrestlers to show what they're made of to an audience which will appreciate their efforts.

When we founded SHIMMER in late 2005, it was a risk. Honestly, it still is, as we only continue to remain in operation on a show to show basis. It is through the financial support of our dedicated fan base that we are able to continue to do what we do. The first, and biggest "thank you" of all, goes to every fan who has spent their hard earned money on tickets to our live events or our DVD releases.

Particularly right now, given the state of the economy, in combination with wrestling's general low level of current popularity, it means a great deal to us that you are still willing to throw your support behind our product financially. We realize that the public doesn't have much money right now to spend on such things as professional wrestling, but we greatly value your dedication to our crew. It is the way that all small wrestling companies are able to remain in business right now. Thank you!

My second "thank you" goes out to our entire roster of women athletes who have put their physical well being on the line during our three years thus far, for the sake of giving you your money's worth and breaking the stereotype that women in this part of the world cannot deliver in the ring. To date, fifty-one female wrestlers have competed in the SHIMMER ring, and I personally appreciate the contributions of each and every one of them. To SHIMMER's women athletes, I thank you!

Of course, there are dozens of individuals who make SHIMMER possible who you never see inside the ring, or on camera. So many people are responsible for bringing our live events to fruition, particularly Danny Daniels and everyone at AAW in Berwyn. The shows can only be captured on camera with the assistance of our cameramen Mike Robles, Jesse Irwin, Dave Puente, and Michael Z. That footage can only translate to DVD through the efforts of Puente's editing skills and being willing to tolerate my demands in the production studio when it comes to the final DVD product. Those DVDs can only be manufactured and get to you through the assistance of Sal Hamaoui at the World Wrestling Network, everyone in the office at Ring of Honor, and the staff of Big Vision Entertainment. We only have a presence online with the help of ClickWrestle.com, the contributing staff to our web site, plus Nick Andrews' music videos for YouTube, and everyone who posts across cyberspace to help spread the word about what we are doing. To everyone who has helped contribute to producing our DVD series, delivering that product to the wrestling fans, and making it known to fellow fans that we exist, thank you!

When I look back at these three years of SHIMMER, I'm extremely proud of the accomplishments we've made as a team during each individual year.

Our first year was the test to see if a product such as ours even had an audience, and could survive as an alternative to what the wrestling fans were being offered by existing organizations already. Thankfully, the fan base was there to throw their support behind our efforts.

Our second year saw us crown the first SHIMMER Champion, and establish our own title in the professional wrestling world, while firmly solidifying our core roster of top athletes as our own (in many ways "home grown") stars. Each of these women had their work cut out for them when it came to presenting themselves as THE attraction, not just a side portion of the show which they may have been relegated to serving as elsewhere.

Though some members of our roster have gone on to later become television stars, each of our women built their initial name and reputation based on their wrestling skill, ring presence, and determination to make it, without the aid of television exposure. We didn't need to bring in established television stars to give you the best in a women's wrestling show. These women already were the best, and proved it with their outings inside the ring. And you treated them as stars.

When I look back at our third year of operation, I see it as a year of growth and building for our future. Wrestlers who where here since day one such as Daizee Haze, Sara Del Rey, Cheerleader Melissa, MsChif, and Mercedes Martinez (to only name a few), were embraced by you as our true stars, based solely on their early performances on our DVD series. Wrestlers who made their way to SHIMMER competition a bit further into our operation like an Amazing Kong or a Sarah Stock, eventually earned your approval as well, based on their level of performance. In year three, I feel that several members of our crew really stepped up their game and brought their performance to the next level, to the extent that we can really count on them to deliver those truly memorable matches during the years to come, not only here in SHIMMER but across the wrestling landscape.

Our third year saw someone like Serena Deeb break out as a top performer. Though she may not be one of the flashiest performers in independent pro wrestling today, doing all of the latest "innovative" maneuvers, Serena is the pure embodiment of what a young, determined babyface professional wrestler should be. Her display of emotion in addition to her execution during her matches are second to none, and her matches this year, particularly her series against Sara Del Rey, really translated her true abilities and raw potential to the audience in a huge way. I've said it before, and I'll say it again, Serena is in many ways our Ricky Steamboat, and it's for many more reasons than just the beautiful armdrags. She's "got it," and is going to achieve great things in this profession.

Jetta's vocal personality and the very animated way she carries herself in the ring has been a unique, amusing, and in my opinion essential aspect to our shows ever since her arrival. She was put in the position of becoming a headliner on one of our events earlier this year and was able to deliver in that role just as effectively as she had been a perfect midcard addition to our roster during her initial outings. Jetta has also shined as a great tag team wrestler at the side of Rain, making the International edition of the Home Wrecking Crew a unique entity in its own right, separate from Rain's earlier established partnership with Lacey. For every master of technical wrestling, high flying wizardry, or hard hitting, strong style brutality we have on the show, we need someone like Jetta on the card just as much.

Not only Jetta & Rain, but our entire tag team division really came into its own during our third year. It was truly the right time to establish SHIMMER Tag Team Champions, to go alongside the SHIMMER Championship prize.

Lexie Fyfe & Malia Hosaka continued to be SHIMMER's standard for tag team wrestling, in many ways teaching the younger generation of female performers what tag team wrestling is, through the process of stepping into the ring against them. Taking the newer teams to school, in the case of "The Experience," is not just a figure of speech. They are a key part of our roster's continued growth.

Portia Perez & Nicole Matthews as "The Canadian Ninjas" turned into one of our most entertaining acts in short order. At the same time, I must also compliment Nicole's performances in singles action during this past year. Matthews has really matured into almost a completely different, more confident and skilled pro wrestler, and has done it before our very eyes ever since her arrival one year ago, at the time as just Portia's Canadian buddy. Through her combination of Kosher pickles, chocolate chip cookies, ninja ways, and youthful appearance, Perez has oddly become one of the most over characters on our shows. And she can't be bodyslammed.

Ashley Lane & Nevaeh, perhaps the tag team duo most dedicated to the concept of being tag team wrestlers out of the entire bunch, put in solid efforts against each of the other teams on the roster over the course of 2008, including several rematches after exchanging wins and losses with their opponents. They bring out the best in one another as tag team partners, while also highlighting the skills of their opponents in the process of facing them in their matches, and I have no doubt that they will represent SHIMMER's tag team division with pride as champions in the future. You can only have effective heel tag teams with great babyfaces to complement them. Ashley and Nevaeh are committed to traveling the wrestling world as a team, both to continue to better themselves as tag team wrestlers, and also spread the word of SHIMMER to fans everywhere they compete, by regularly defending the title belts.

Though not a part of the SHIMMER Tag Team Championship Gauntlet on Volume 21, the two teams which headlined Volume 17, MsChif & Cheerleader Melissa and the "Dangerous Angels" of Sara Del Rey & Allison Danger, delivered one of the best all around tag team matches we've ever featured on one of our shows. With MsChif focused on defending her SHIMMER Championship, and Del Rey and Danger having different viewpoints at present, it's uncertain as to what either team's future tag team contributions may be, but during this past year they certainly made their mark.

Australia's "Pink Ladies" of Madison Eagles & Jessie McKay were a tremendous addition to our October 19th taping as a tag team unit. Their crisp double team combinations and excellent grasp of pro wrestling's fundamentals resulted in some of the best tag action of the taping, and both women proved that they are worthy of their spots in the SHIMMER locker room. As I write this, I am in the studio in Tampa beginning the production phase of Volumes 21 & 22, and the Pink Ladies' outings on these two DVDs make me excited to see what they can do in the future inside the SHIMMER ring.

After initially forming their tag team on the Canadian indies, the "Suicide Blondes" of LuFisto & Jennifer Blake brought their explosive style of tag team wrestling to SHIMMER for the Gauntlet, and plan to do so well into the future for SHIMMER's tag team scene.

Not only as a team with LuFisto, but as a singles competitor, "Girl Dynamite" Jennifer Blake has begun to emerge as someone to keep your eye on during the course of the next few years. Though she is still quite new to pro wrestling, for someone with as little experience as Jen has at this stage of her career, she shows such fantastic potential. Her matches against Allison Danger and Cheerleader Melissa this year give us just a taste of what is to come once Jennifer Blake gets some more ring time under her belt. She is one of those cases where it will be an exciting ride as we watch her grow as a professional wrestler in SHIMMER competition during the coming months (and hopefully years)!

In addition to the relative new additions to our roster making their own progress during our third year, a wrestler such as Ariel, who has been here from the beginning but never really emerged as a main eventer on our shows, began to show her true abilities as of late. Ariel showed she can put on high energy contests against the likes of Amazing Kong and Nikki Roxx this year, elevating her own status in the SHIMMER hierarchy in the process.

Daffney was able to put her past history of knee injuries behind her, which plagued her early SHIMMER tenure as a wrestler, and ended 2008 on a very positive note. Daff has always been a great source of entertainment on professional wrestling cards, and contributed to SHIMMER's presentation this year in ways that only she can.

One of Europe's best, "The Croatian Panther" Wesna Busic, was thrust right into the main mix from her debut, facing established stars like Mercedes Martinez and Amazing Kong, and instantly showing our fan base, who may not have been very familiar with her, that she is at that same level when it comes to her ring skills. She brought out a fantastic side to Amber O'Neal on Volume 21 as well, who herself showed once again that when thrown to the wolves, even our resident "Diva" Amber can hang with the hard hitters on the roster! Wesna closed out her first year as a part of our roster with the International Dream Match against LuFisto, which won Match of the Night honors from several fans in attendance at our October 19th taping. Wesna successfully lived up to her worldwide reputation by delivering in the SHIMMER ring during '08.

Even though she may be new to our locker room, I look forward to Miss Natural remaining a solid veteran presence on our shows into the future. 2008 additions like Cat Power (meow) and Danyah are still working to carve their own niche in the SHIMMER realm, but are slowly becoming more comfortable in their roles on our events. Even newer talents like Rachel Summerlyn, Stephie Sinclair, Cherry Bomb, and Melanie Cruise all made their way to Berwyn for the opportunity to prove their worth to the fans, as well as their fellow wrestlers in the locker room and earn future spots. Their dedication to wrestling and willingness to learn should be applauded.

Though I do view year three as the year that so many of the aforementioned women began to really make their mark and come into their own as talents which we can count on for SHIMMER's future, that is not to say that our established crew of top level talents weren't also a big part of this year's success as well. After all, the main eventers are the draw, even if I like to focus on the talents which are still being developed!

Daizee Haze, though sidelined for one of our tapings during this past year, came through in her performances on our DVDs, while also being a huge part of SHIMMER's future development with her activity at the ROH Wrestling Academy, and new role as SHIMMER Trainer. I look forward to Daizee continuing to be the heart (punch) of SHIMMER during year four, just like she has been since that first main event match against Lacey back on Volume 1.

It was great to continue to be able to feature the talents of Amazing Kong and Nikki Roxx on our events, despite their current contractual status with TNA. Thanks to the assistance of both Bill Behrens and Bob Ryder, we were able to have both women remain a part of our family during year three. Kong is, without a doubt, the most awe inspiring female wrestler out there today. She is an attraction in and of herself. Nikki has developed, through her added travels and opportunities over the past year and a half, into a top flight athlete in every sense of the word. She brings a level of confidence and professionalism to every match she is a part of, that by having matches against the likes of a Nicole Matthews, Danyah, Jetta, or even longtime colleague Ariel, she brings them up a few notches while being their opponent. That is a very valuable contribution for a wrestler to make to a wrestling show.

Cheerleader Melissa and Mercedes Martinez both came through as MVP's this year. Melissa's tag outing on Volume 17, as well as singles bouts against Sarah Stock, LuFisto, and Jennifer Blake are all memorable for their own reasons. LuFisto vs. Melissa was a magical moment in SHIMMER's history. I don't think anyone will ever forget the exchange between the two during the closing moments of their Volume 20 war, and the literal scream of intensity at one another along the way. Martinez's match against Melissa on Volume 19 will go down as one of the most solidly wrestled contests we've ever featured. It was a great display of why both women can be considered among the best female wrestlers in the world today. Martinez's return to SHIMMER action in general this year resulted in a string of fantastic matches, showing that, despite that shoulder injury which sidelined her for over a year, she's still the same Mercedes that helped establish our company with her feud against Sara Del Rey a couple years ago.

The two women who held the SHIMMER Championship during year three were both such essential parts of our existence, it can't effectively be put into words.

Sara Del Rey's complete transformation from the wrestler we grew to love during SHIMMER's early days, into the vicious, more focused Death Rey of late 2008, meant we witnessed a complete change in Sara's role and method of contribution to our product as a whole as well. As great as she was in her initial position as the face of the promotion, she is just as important, if not more, in her current role as the intimidating ex-champion intent on regaining "her belt."

While Sara Del Rey as the inaugural SHIMMER Champion brought the same brand of skilled wrestling champion to the title which her trainer Bryan Danielson did to the ROH World Title during his reign, her successor has proven to be a quite different, yet also quite worthy title holder in her own right.

"Your Soul's Tormentor" MsChif had the unenviable task of being the wrestler on the SHIMMER roster who had to follow in the footsteps of Sara Del Rey's 20+ minute technical wrestling clinics, but nonetheless has come through in that role every single time since being crowned SHIMMER Champion back in April. MsChif's style of matches, and overall ring presence has such a different feel to it than any other character in women's wrestling that it makes her title reign something unique, which can't even really be compared to Del Rey's. Chif's title win, and subsequent defenses of the title, be it against a classic heel like Jetta, a hard hitting strong style opponent like Mercedes, a long time adversary and training partner in Daizee, or another fan favorite like Ariel, have all offered something different in terms of each match's content, and have displayed MsChif's versatility.

Allison Danger, while currently out of active competition (as she put it, due to "carrying the next generation of SHIMMER wrestler"), remains and important cog in the SHIMMER machine from an organizational standpoint. Don't forget, she gave her collarbone to the SHIMMER cause during year three as well, and still made it to the merch table for you all at intermission before heading to the hospital!

Wrestlers like Sarah Stock and Lacey made excellent contributions early during year three before being put on the sidelines. I look forward to Sarah's return to SHIMMER action during 2009 (as well as the also injured Cindy Rogers, and an eventual return for "The Jezebel" Eden Black in due time). I'd like to thank Lacey for all of her hard work and physical exertion in the SHIMMER ring during our first three years. Lacey was, without a doubt, one of the important building blocks of SHIMMER as a company, and helped put us on the map. Thank you!

Looking ahead, I can't wait to see what year four has to offer, not only in terms of the potential matches inside the ring, but also what it has to offer each of our talented women athletes, who are growing better and better with every passing day of additional professional wrestling experience. I'm glad that SHIMMER can assist each of these performers in achieving their goals in this industry, and be an outlet for them to show the world what women athletes can do when given a real chance.

Thanks for three productive years, everybody!

Dave Prazak

The team of Ashley Lane and Nevaeh became the first ever SHIMMER Tag Team Champions as part of SHIMMER Volume 21 on October 19th in Berwyn, IL, by winning a six team gauntlet to determine the initial title holders. They then made a successful first title defense on Volume 22, to leave the taping still holding the belts.

"The pressure is certainly on Nevaeh and I right now to honorably represent SHIMMER's tag team division," commented Ashley earlier this week. "Though we weren't one of the top picks going into the gauntlet, we want to prove that our title victory was not a fluke, and that we have what it takes to hold on to these belts for a long time to come."

"I may be one of the newest additions to the SHIMMER family," added Nevaeh, "but I take great pride in wearing the SHIMMER Tag Team Championship. Ashley and I may not have as much SHIMMER ring time as some of the other teams on the roster do, but we are determined to show every one of the fans, as well as the rest of the locker room that we deserve everything we've accomplished during the past year."

Ashley and Nevaeh informed SHIMMER management that they want to be fighting champions during the SHIMMER off-season this winter, and will defend the titles across the independent scene at every opportunity.

"We won't be paper champions, and we won't just sit around and wait for the next SHIMMER taping to put these belts on the line," stated Ashley. "We'll take on any team, wherever we wrestle, to display that we truly are worthy of wearing the SHIMMER Tag Team Championship."

This weekend, Ashley and Nevaeh will put the titles up for grabs on two independent pro wrestling events in the midwest.

This Friday, October 31st, they will give a title shot to their opponents, "Sassy" Stephie Sinclair & Hailey Hatred, on an event promoted by American Luchacore. "Lucha Li-Braaiinnss" takes place Friday at the Clark County Fairgrounds, 4401 S. Charleston Pike, in Springfield, OH. Doors open at 7pm. Show starts at 8pm.

Visit http://www.myspace.com/luchacore for more info.

Then this Saturday, November 1st (if they are still champions coming out of Friday's event), they will again defend the titles, this time against "Sassy" Stephie Sinclair & Hellena Heavenly, on an event promoted by Insanity Pro Wrestling. "Insane Intentions" takes place Saturday at the Salvation Army Center, 1337 S. Shelby St., in Indianapolis, IN. Doors open at 6pm. Bell time is 7pm.

Visit http://insanityprowrestling.com/ for more info.

If you live in the area of either of these events this weekend, be sure to head out and support SHIMMER's new Tag Team Champions in action!

MSCHIF VS RAIN FOR THE TITLE - OCT. 11 AT FIP!
------------------------------------------------------------------

The SHIMMER Championship will be on the line for the first time in Full Impact Pro competition next Saturday night, October 11th!

SHIMMER Champion MsChif will put the title on the line against 1/2 of the International Home Wrecking Crew, and FIP roster mainstay Rain. As one of the female wrestlers most familiar to Full Impact Pro's fans, it is fitting that Rain be the one granted the first SHIMMER Title shot in an FIP ring.

Here's a preview of what's on the Ocober 11th FIP event...


Strong To Challenge For FIP World Heavyweight Title

Roderick Strong is synonymous with the FIP World Heavyweight Title. He has held the belt on two occassions including a title reign that lasted for over one year. Now new FIP World Heavyweight Champion Go Shiozaki will have to defend the title against him when FIP returns to action on October 11th in Crystal River, FL (check www.FullImpactPro.com for building & ticket info).

Shiozaki won the title at the last FIP event from Erick Stevens. Shiozaki quickly earned the hatred of the FIP fans by joining with Sean Davis' Heartbreak Enterprises. Can Strong make Shiozaki's reign a short one?

"There is no way Roderick Strong will defeat Go Shiozaki," Sean Davis said. "The reason is very simple. Roderick Strong is one of Florida's favorite sons. Go Shiozaki is from Japan. Everyone with half a brain knows that anything from Japan is better than anything from Florida. Go Shiozaki will prove this on October 11th when he defeats Roderick Strong right in FIP's home base of Crystal River."

SHIMMER Title Match Added

FIP is very proud to announce that SHIMMER Champion MsChif will defend the title at the October 11th event. This will guarantee that the best womens wrestling will be in Crystal River. MsChif's challenger is very interesting. She will put the title up against Rain. What makes this match so unique is that both women are in The Age Of The Fall. What will happen when two great women athletes collide in Crystal River with the SHIMMER Title at stake?

Black vs. Stevens Signed For 10/11

Erick Stevens wants the FIP World Heavyweight Title back. Tyler Black of The Age Of The Fall is looking for a shot at the FIP Championship. 10/11 in Crystal River, FL will see Stevens vs. Black for the #1 contendership to the FIP World Heavyweight Championship.

"The belt will give The Age Of The Fall power," Black said. "That is why I need to defeat Stevens and then win the title."

"I am more determined than I have ever been in my life," Stevens said. "I need the FIP World Heavyweight Title back. I can't sleep anymore. I keep thinking of the fact that I have never been able to successfully defend it in Florida. I need to win it and then have a title reign that I can be proud of. Tyler Black better be ready for my best stuff on October 11th."

Lacey's final match was back in April (Vol. 18 - MNHWC vs. Ashley Lane & Nevaeh).

Much like the SHIMMER Championship Tournament featured an international wildcard competitor making her SHIMMER debut as part of the tournament field, the SHIMMER Tag Team Championship Gauntlet will also have an international wildcard team entered into the mix.

Unlike Sarah Stock, who was kept a mystery until the day of the event, the international wildcard tag team gunning for the SHIMMER Tag Team Titles can now be revealed. Like Stock one year ago, this foreign duo has the opportunity to demonstrate in their SHIMMER debuts that they are championship material.

MADISON "The Punisher" EAGLES & JESSIE "The Body" McKAY,  collectively known as "The Pink Ladies," head all the way from Sydney, Australia to enter SHIMMER competition, and will debut on Sunday, October 19th in Berwyn, IL!




MADISON EAGLES - Height: 6'1" Weight: 70 kgs. Hometown: Sydney, Australia. Pro Debut: November 2001. Known as the queen of Australian wrestling, Madison has established herself as one of the most dominant wrestlers in her home country. With almost seven years of pro experience under her belt, Madison has a reputation of being able to back up her tough as nails attitude. In addition to being a standout wrestler, she is also co-owner of PWA Australia, and the founder/owner of the only all women's wrestling company in Australia, the PWWA (Pro Wrestling Women's Alliance). A former four time IWA (Australia) Women's Champion, Madison has travelled to the United States previously to compete for the Ohio based Heartland Wrestling Association. Her signature maneuvers include a springboard moonsault called the Soaring Eagle, as well as a Death Valley Driver to the knee called Hell Bound.




JESSIE McKAY - Height: 5'10" Weight: 60 kgs. Hometown: Sydney, Australia. Pro Debut: June 2007. Prepared for professional wrestling at the PWA training school, Jessie is the current PWWA Champion. Though she has just over one year of pro experience thus far, McKay has already competed across Australia for multiple organizations in addition to PWA & PWWA, including RCW, AWP, PWA Canberra, and PWA Queensland. Jessie is known for utilizing a sitout Uranage called the Boyfriend Stealer, a standing octopus stretch, and the Yakuza kick in her repertoire.




As a tag team combination, Eagles & McKay traditionally finish off their opponents with a wheelbarrow/Ace Crusher double team maneuver.




An international team unfamiliar to the vast majority of the SHIMMER roster, The Pink Ladies are truly a wildcard team thrown into the mix with the established SHIMMER tag teams. There is no telling how they will factor into the SHIMMER Tag Team Championship Gauntlet on October 19th.

FRONT ROW FOR OCT. 19TH ON SALE TONIGHT!
------------------------------------------------------------------

SHIMMER - WOMEN ATHLETES returns to live action on Sunday, October 19, 2008 at the Berwyn Eagles Club (6309 26th Street) in Berwyn, IL, just outside Chicago. Bell time for this Sunday taping is 2pm (an earlier start than our usual Saturday tapings in the past).

Volumes 21 and 22 of the SHIMMER DVD series will be filmed for www.ROHwrestling.com during the course of the October 19th taping. As part of the Volume 21 portion, the first SHIMMER Tag Team Champions will be crowned! More details concerning the show will be made available at www.shimmerwrestling.com during the next several weeks.

The brand new SHIMMER Tag Team Championship belts were recently unveiled after Reggie Parks and Rico Mann completed their work on them.

Front Row Reserved Tickets to the October 19th SHIMMER taping will go on sale at 8pm Central time TONIGHT, Monday, August 11th, at www.shimmerathletes.com (The SHIMMER Forum).

Only 65 front row tickets will be available. Cost is $50 plus $1 shipping for each Front Row Reserved Ticket. As we have done in the past, you must be logged in at The SHIMMER Forum when tickets go on sale in order to place a ticket request. The tickets will be sold on a first come, first served basis, via Private Message at The SHIMMER Forum tonight.

Orders must be placed via PayPal, as due to the high demand for tickets we cannot wait for mail order payments to arrive for front row. Please do not E-mail us to request tickets before they go on sale tonight. We will not be able to hold tickets for you in advance. If you want front row for this taping, be sure to be online tonight. PayPal payments must be completed by midnight for the order in which your ticket request was made to remain valid.

General admission tickets to the October 19th SHIMMER taping will go on sale at a later date. We are only putting the front row reserved tickets on sale tonight.

Mark your calendars! Sunday, October 19th - SHIMMER back in Berwyn!



TAG TEAM TITLE GAUNTLET ON VOLUME 21!
------------------------------------------------------------------

Here's the scoop.

It's not going to be a single elimination tournament to crown the first SHIMMER Tag Team Champions. Rather than put seven tag team matches on a single DVD release, or have to split a tournament up across two different DVD releases, we've decided to go a different route to determine the first title holders, and have it all happen on one single DVD.

The answer is, we will have a tag team gauntlet on Volume 21. Each team will draw a number. Teams #1 and #2 will face each other to start off, with the winners of that pairing to immediately face the team which drew #3, and so on. The team which is victorious during the final pairing in the gauntlet will be crowned the first SHIMMER Tag Team Champions.

This is an easy way to determine the initial title holders, and get it all accomplished in one shot on a single DVD, while at the same time not occupying that entire DVD's card with tag team matches.

Discuss the SHIMMER Tag Team Title Gauntlet in the official 10/19 News & Discussion Thread at The SHIMMER Forum...

http://shimmerwomen.proboards50.com/index.cgi?board=shimmer&action=display&thread=2358



TRIVIA CONTEST TONIGHT AT 8PM CENTRAL - PRIZES~!
------------------------------------------------------------------

Let's beak the attendance record for The SHIMMER Forum tonight.

Not only will we be putting front row tickets on sale for the October 19th taping this evening at 8pm Central time, but we're also going to have a trivia contest tonight as well, for an assortment of prizes.

We will begin posting SHIMMER related trivia questions here at 8pm, and will continue to post new questions every few minutes. This will give some of you "something to do" while waiting for your ticket request to go through tonight. Basically, make a list of your answers to each of the trivia questions, and once the final question is posted, you send in your list of answers via Private Message. The first four members who score 100% will receive a prize, with several options (Tickets for October, DVDs, Roster Albums, t-shirts, buttons, etc).

If there aren't 4 people who score 100%, it'll be whichever 4 score the highest, in the order they were received.

8pm Central tonight... The SHIMMER Forum is the place to be!

Those of you who are concerned about the first edition titles... take note that ROH is now on the last case of both Vol. 8 and Vol. 9. Once they sell these final cases, those titles will be sold out until we issue a retail version. Get 'em while you can if you don't have those two titles yet.



ROH PODCASTS - SHIMMER UPDATE
------------------------------------------------------------------

A brief SHIMMER audio update was recorded last week after the ROH event in Detroit, MI for the new podcasts section of the Ring of Honor web site. Listen to the update at the link below.

http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/RohWrestling/~5/349818143/ShimmerUpdatewithDavePrazak.mp3



2005-2007 SHIMMER ROSTER ALBUM
------------------------------------------------------------------

The SHIMMER - WOMEN ATHLETES DVD series began filming in late 2005. The first taping featured 18 of the most skilled female wrestlers from around North America, and built the foundation for subsequent tapings. As SHIMMER's fan following started to grow, women athletes from other parts of the world were brought to SHIMMER to mix it up with the Americans as well, giving the DVDs an international flavor. Between that initial taping in November of 2005 and the October 2007 taping, a total of 37 female wrestlers competed under the SHIMMER banner!

Many fans have requested that SHIMMER release new merchandise items to accompany our DVD series, and we've listened! Now available is the Limited Edition SHIMMER 2005-2007 Roster Album! This collector's item features photos and profile information/statistics for each and every woman who wrestled for SHIMMER between Volume 1 and Volume2016 (the last DVD filmed in 2007). The Roster Album features the work of SHIMMER staff photographers Jill McKee and Gilda Pasquil, printed in full color on high quality glossy cardstock. The Roster Album is an excellent accompaniment piece to the SHIMMER DVD series. For those of you who have received our small glossy cardstock promotional flyers before our tapings, the Roster Album is printed the same way, on the same glossy cardstock. Just imagine full size pages of that glossy cardstock material, in eight page booklet form, and that's the Roster Album!

The SHIMMER 2005-2007 Roster Album is available at a cost of $10, plus a flat worldwide shipping fee of $5.

COME AS YOU ARE RUMBLE FROM 2005!
------------------------------------------------------------------

What is the Come As You Are Rumble?

This was the dark match held prior to the first SHIMMER Women Athletes taping in Berwyn, IL on November 6, 2005. This was included as an easter egg on the first edition release of SHIMMER Volume 1, which is now out of print (the match isn't on the retail version). Thus, the only place you can now see it is on YouTube. It features male wrestlers who were in town to check out the show. SHIMMER spared no expense to book many of the top ROH stars on the SHIMMER pre-show!! Some of these wrestlers are now under WWE contract. All thanks to being a part of the SHIMMER Come As You Are Rumble.

I've been working on wrestling shows for 12 years, for over 30 different organizations, and have never once been on a show with a ring that had any sort of "spring" involved in the construction. The bounce factor to some rings is the flexibility when you put weight on the cross bars. Some are more flexible than others. I'm sure there may be some rings with a spring out there, but they are incredibly rare.

Wrestling rings consist of the steel frame, steel cross bars (sometimes the frame and cross bars are made of wood, but usually only on really old rings), wood boards on top of the cross bars, padding roughly 1/2 inch thick (sometimes less, depending on the ring), and then canvas.

Some photos of the construction of a pro wrestling ring are here...

July's POD archive...
http://www.glorywrestling.com/PicArchive.asp?pod=1216094400

Digging into the archives, I've uploaded a music video of the Lacey vs. Rain feud from the independent wrestling scene, made during 2002. I put this together using entirely VHS material, some 2nd or 3rd generation quality, and using 2 VCRs and a CD player as the method of stringing the clips together. It's nothing amazing as a video, but it's a good look at the Lacey vs. Rain feud before they later went on to form the Minnesota Home Wrecking Crew as a tag team. The video is to the song "Pitiful" by Blindside.

This video was sent around to promoters to help get both of them bookings on indie shows, and was included on the Lacey vs. Rain compilation video which they've sold in the past. You can try contacting Rain on her MySpace to see if it's still available.
