EXTREME RISING TV UPDATE

By Mike Johnson on 2014-01-08 15:31:33
As we noted here on PWInsider.com, Extreme Rising was unable to produce their TV series that was scheduled to debut on 1/1 in Philadelphia due to issues with their announce team being unable to make it to the production sessions thanks to weather-related issues. The promotion is moving forward with TV with a new team of Matt Striker and Joel Gertner doing the announcing, but has to wait for a new window of opportunity to open up with the station. There's no timetable yet for the series to now debut.

The promotion released the following promo from Rich Ortiz:

The promotion is slated to return to Pittsburgh, PA on 2/8 at the Irish Center, which as it turns out in one of those "you can't make this up" stories, was raided for being an illegal speakeasy. Seriously.

The main event of the Pittsburgh, PA return is Stevie Richards defending the promotion's championship against a mystery opponent. For tickets, visit ExtremeRising.com.
