Does anyone know about these guys? There's a show coming to the arena here in North Bay on April 16th. On the card, they have Tonga Kid, Ted Dibiase, Rick Steiner, Road Warriors( ), Greg Valentine, Brutus Beefcake booked. It's sponsored by the Christian Churches, so I assume Dibiase has something to do with it, but this show is gonna be crazy expensive and the promoter is gonna lose his shirt. The last show we had in NB drew about 100 people, and that was a small venue...how do they expect to draw enough to make money back with all those names? Gonna take 600 or 700 just to break even, at least. Also, no one called me to see if I wanted to work it....very insulted in my own hometown...

Sounds like a similar event that was held back in September in Oshawa. Apparentley the Oshawa show (although laced with christian references) was actually very good and drew about 1000 people from what I heard. The show happened about 2 weeks berfore Hawk died and it was one of his last performances.

Ya same show that was put on in MI last year where they had a huge crowd of 1500. A lot of southern ontarios gusy are on those cards including The Hacker and Showtime.. nto sure if they are on this upcoming card though. They wont lose much money if a group of churches are putting it on. They have enough money for a show like this... but I wouldn't be surprised if there were at least 500 people there to see it.
