Phoenix Fury Legdrop 0 Report post Posted December 9, 2005 My theory: IWA-MS knows they're dieing. They cancelled 6 straight shows. They know the end is near. Meanwhile, Danny Daniels, who was the Golden boy on 2003, has this new promotion in the area. They want to give it some publicity, and "pass the torch" to them. Hell, I already watched the 1st show. I think the 3rd is the Trashcan one. I'll be there soon. If that's the case, why wouldn't Ian do it with the Ritter Brothers (No Limits promoters), Carmine DeSpirito (Mid-American Wrestling promoter), Ed Chuman (NWA Midwest promoter), Insanity Pro Wrestling (who run Indianapolis and seem to worship the ground that IWA walks on), or any other promoter/promotion that Ian actually gets along with?

King Cucaracha 0 Report post Posted December 9, 2005 As an aside, I just got a batch order from SMV (Eddie Kingston style SHILL~!) and Jimmy versus Colt Cabana from TPI Night 1 was entertaining as hell. On subject, I want Jimmy versus Necro. And Necro as IWA World Champion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Purist Report post Posted December 9, 2005 Why they put the title on Jimmy Jacobs is beyond me, to his credit, he did well as a heel and really wrestled a good heel style, but onto the subject at hand. IWA-MS was dying, Jacobs read the writing on the wall, and he collected cash for tossing the IWA-MS Title into the trash. What he did was simply get the money he needed, sure, he stabbed Ian Rotten in the back, but its Ian Rotten, big f'n deal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't know Daniels and Rotten don't get along. In that case I think it's a shoot. yay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't know Daniels and Rotten don't get along. In that case I think it's a shoot. yay. Yeah. Daniels left IWA with Prazak, Whitmer and I think Brad Bradley (who if that's right has since come back). It was either him or Whitmer, or both, who was getting pissy about not being used well enough and there were probably money issues too. But yeah, he bailed on the company which he pretty much was made by. I doubt Ian's on good terms with him somehow. Still might be a work though. Jimmy's promos before this were getting a bit more anti-Internet, so maybe it ties in somehow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Youth N Asia 0 Report post Posted December 10, 2005 Whitmer and Jacobs who were ROH tag champs at the time were asked to job to the THomiselli's. Whitmer refused and him and Ian parted ways because of that. Prazak and Daniels left on the spot in protest. Frankly I don't blame Whitmer, being that ROH is his top pay day, and those guys suck. Although since it was an IWA show only 40 people may have seen it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HollywoodSpikeJenkins 0 Report post Posted December 10, 2005 It was also the fact that Whitmer and Jacobs were just thrown together in IWA and had no real backstory, except for being tag champs in ROH. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
