BUSSY (Allie Katch and Effy) will make their debut in the state of Washington to take on Most Violent (Funny Bone and Drexl) at Relentless Wrestling’s “Next Level” on January 20th.

In what should be a very hard hitting match, Janai Kai will take on Kennedi Copeland at Beyond Wrestling’s “Lights…Camera…Wrestling!” on January 28th. Also announced for this event will be the very powerful, Gabby Forza, against the very cunning and arrogant Zayda Steel.

Rhio will defend her Progress Women’s Championship against the debuting Harley Hudson, who recently won TNA’s Gut Check UK, on January 28th at “The Light of the Dragon” in London.

TNA’s Jai Vidal will take on Amira in a first time ever match at DOA Wrestling’s “Slammed by Me” on February 4th.

Aleah James is coming to the US and will make her debut at Black Label Pro against the also debuting, Heather Reckless. This should be an amazing match on February 24th at “In Defense of the Genre”.

Steph De Lander will make her Wrestling Revolver debut on March 16th at “Ready or Not!”. Also announced for this event is Speedball Mike Bailey against Marina Shafir.
