JOHNNY B SAYS

This cycle, Brandon "The Bull" Orndorff (1,020-202-51, $2,444,600) becomes the first wrestler from the Mid-Atlantic Region League to enter our Hall of Fame. He is managed by Michael Long of West Michigan, who is probably best known for having been one-half of Dee-Jay back in the early to mid-90's. Michael wanted to take this opportunity to thank the other half of Dee-Jay, Hector Serrano of New Jersey, as well as each and every MRL manager for making it arguably the best league in the history of the IWA. Finally, he sends a big THANK YOU to "Mr. Wonderful" Paul Orndorff, Bobby "The Brain" Heenan, and all the other great personalities that made wrestling such a "wonderful" part of his life.

We have received numerous requests to open the previously delayed Gorgeous Amazon League, which now has an assigned commissioner. All new and transferred wrestlers next cycle will receive a free battle royal entree upon arrival to this new, Bronze Federation ladies' league. Use this opportunity to give your female grapplers some new competition!

The Unknown Wrestler League is back! Many of you remember how exciting the first round of this league was, and the second is sure to be even more intense. Check your bulletin for the details on this unique league, then sign up!
