On Friday the 13th IWA Midwest Wrestling hosted Indy Mania at Bellevue Plaza. There were 10 matches on the card, highlighted with young wrestlers Bucky Collins, Drake Younger, The Hooligans (Mason & Devon Cutter) and Jimmy Jacobs. A large majority of the crowd were there to see former ECW stars and hardcore legends Joey Grunge and Ian Rotten and his former Bad Breed partner Axl F/N Rotten. This is not your father’s professional rasslin’ from years past, it is a fast paced non-stop action between gifted athletes and tremendous entertainers who know what the fans love and they deliver it.

Thirteen time Peoria Motorcycle TT Champion Chris Carr held a press conference that his racing career will come to an end this season. The 44 year-old from Fleetwood, Pennsylvania has called this his Farewell to Flat Track Tour. Chris earned the title as the Prince of Peoria when he dominated the PMC 5/8 mile track on the 1990′s. On September 5, 2006, Carr broke the motorcycle land speed world record at the Bonneville Salt Flats (Utah), with a two-pass 350.8 mph average. He was the first motorcyclist to break the 350 mph barrier. Chris was inducted into the A.M.A. Motorcycle Hall of Fame in 2004.
