An announcement was made on the SHIMMER Forums at http://shimmerwomen.proboards50.com/ that BRYCE REMSBURG has been named senior official by SHIMMER management. Bryce is one of the most traveled and respected referees on the U.S. independent scene, and will certainly maintain order during SHIMMER matches. Additionally, it was decided that,  as the company is a women's promotion, several female referees will be appointed to the referee crew as well. Look for more on this subject soon.
