Starting January 6, SAW will be running weekly Thursday night events in Ripley, TN at the EWE Arena. With Columbia on Fridays and Pulaski on Saturdays, that gives SAW three regular towns each week. A lot of indy promoters talk about running multiple shows per week. Very few ever achieve it…Chase Stevens will headline Columbia on 12/17. SAW will be in Ripley on 12/18 for their final Saturday night show…The taping should be worth about three weeks of TV. They got footage on Picture Perfect and DKE last week. The next full scale TV Taping at Morton’s will be January 15. SAW will do an additional mini-taping (date to be determined) in the interim. The Stevens/Shatter match will not be shown on TV due to Mercer's involvement in the finish. It will be included in a DVD release. Mercer's TNA contract prohibits him from appearing on any other wrestling TV show. However, Mercer's angle with Stevens will still be featured on the house shows...Commentary will be added in post production with Michael Graham on play-by-play...Shane Williams will be the featured guest on the next edition of “Phoning It In” on GWH Radio (Monday, December 20 at 8pm – www.blogtalkradio.com/psp) ...Mercer was very pleased with the way his TV debut played out at the TNA TV taping last Thursday. Mercer appeared in the role of Amazing Red’s “little brother” as Jeff Jarrett’s opponent in his MMA challenge match. The segment is scheduled to air on 1/31…The injury Kid Kash suffered prior to the event was not related to wrestling. It was either a back or a leg injury or possibly both, and it was no small thing…Walters said he hopes to make regular appearances for SAW going forward. Derrick Driver, his partner in New Wave, may also be coming in…The appearance by Rudy Charles was the start of a recurring role for him at SAW…David Young said he has given the superhero outfit a special place of honor in his clothes closet…Mike Dell was originally from New Jersey but is now living in Texas. He connected with SAW through the monthly Texas shows being run by Ryan Genesis…SAW airdates on America One (Fridays at 10pm, Sundays at 3pm) are now running just two weeks behind Nashville.
