Indy Wrestling News and Notes

Tommy Dreamer wrote onFacebookthat he had over $1300 stolen from him as he was asked to check his carry-on bag by Delta Airlines on a flight from Jackson, Mississippi because the plane was too small. He was returning from a date at TraditionalChampionshipWrestling. When his bag was returned to him after his arrival in New York, the money and other items were gone. Since the money was hidden in the bag among personal items, it means someone went through it and took it. He realized something was wrong when he arrived in Atlanta to transfer to a flight home. He tried to contact Delta but has had no luck. He joked that he's using the experience as an excuse to bring back the Fanny Pack.

- On Friday at PCW No Retreat, No Surrender (at Lava Ignite in Preston, Lancashire, UK) Rick andScottSteinerwon the Preston City Wrestling Tag Team Championship by defeating Fight Club with the top rope bulldog. This was Rick's first match coming out of retirement, their first match in the UK since the 90s and the first time they've teamed sinceTNA. They ended a 287 day reign for Fight Club. On the same show, Doug Williams defeated T-Bone to become the new Preston City Wrestling Champion.
