Tank McDaniel held a presser via conference call today for a group of local reporters, and touched on a wide variety of topics including injury updates and the promotions plans for the coming month. See below the highlights of that session…
On the rumored main event for Warrior Pro’s next show:
We’re going with Lil Lariato as Doc’s next challenger. Both men want the fight, and frankly I’ve been in negotiations with Senator Phillips and Duke Cogburn for weeks to see how we can negotiate that rematch. The first fight was one of my favorite matches of the year, and not just because Doc lost. We think the rematch could be one of the biggest fights of the year, and this is likely not the last you’ll see of the Cogburn Ranch in Warrior Pro…
On the yet to be announced Intercontinental Championship tournament:
Its going to kick off this month. In fact we’ll have an official announcement later this week with dates, participants, and all the details. We’re really excited about the belt and the tournament as a way to showcase different talent. Similar to the G2, we’ll be showcasing wrestlers both inside and outside the promotion, and it will span multiple nights. Again, I don’t want to give too much away, but what I will say is the finals will happen at our next PPV event which will be held in early October- the same one main evented by Doc vs Lariato. We’ll be announcing the details of that show with the tournament later in the week.
