UPDATE: Masked Republic has announced that everyone is
still confirmed for the show this Sunday at the ECW Arena and thet the card will
still take place as originally announced.
ORIGINAL: With yesterday’s announcement that
Extreme Rising was canceling all future shows, many wondered if Sunday’s Masked
Mania iPPV would still take place. The Masked Mania event, which is being
promoted by Kevin Kleinrock and Masked Republic, was working with Rising as part
of a triple shot weekend. With Extreme Rising canceling events, Kleinrock and
Republic had to scramble to make last minute deals with the venue, find a ring,
and get all sorts of other logistical things accomplished five days before the
event. These were things that were being handled on the side of Extreme
Rising.
Kevin Kleinrock and Masked Republic were able to secure
everything, at much added cost, due to their budgeting not including all of
these extras. All of the Lucha talent originally advertised will be appearing as
scheduled as Republic had already taken care of their flights and travel
information. Some of those performers are looking for additional weekend
bookings, due to losing out on their dates with Extreme Rising.
Some changes to the undercard of the iPPV may happen, as some
talent was booked through Extreme Rising, but here is the updated card for the
show…
* Dr. Wagner Jr. vs. LA PARK
* Campeonato de Maestros Champion
Solar vs. Negro Navarro
* Campeanato de Minus del Mundo champion Mini
Mariachi vs. Pequeño Pierroth
* Campeanato de Feminil de PWR champion
Christina Von Eerie vs. Sumie Sakai
* Damien 666 & Bestia 666 & Sabu
vs. Homicide & BLK Jeez & Ruckus
* Cassandro El Exotico vs. “Spartan”
MDogg Matt Cross
* Ophidian The Cobra & The Madjai Amasis & Green Ant
vs. “3 Live Gringos” Chuck Taylor & Orange Cassidy & Papadon
