Found some info on this! Former Georgia indy promoter Ben Masters was there and has this to say:

quote:

Ok it's soap box time. I have been in the pro wrestling business for 30 years and I have paid many "dues" along the way. I made a reputation in this business as a fair pay off man and a man of integrity. I have worked for a few crooked promoters but honestly not many. I have been blessed to work with amazing money guys who respected me and the best business.

Today I drove 90 miles to help a guy who I thought was straight forward and a man of his word. I trusted someone who honestly isn't "in" our business. So I'm here in Dudley Georgia with some of the biggest name sin our business who are not getting paid. The money guy says there IS NO MONEY. After stating he had sold $10,000 worth of tickets. This promoter has broken the trust of guys who have been in our business for years, many who paved the way for the younger guys today.

The Sheriff is now involved and hopefully there will be some sort of resolution. In the meanwhile, props to the guys who stayed and worked for the fans who paid to see a show. None if this was their fault. Most of the legends who left were seen at the Meet and Greet this afternoon so the fans were happy with that. Sadly as a whole no one was paid. So the show must go on and whatever money is left will be split along the guys who stayed and wrestled.

To GREG GREENE I feel sorry for you. You mistakenly thought that getting wrestlers' phone numbers and booking big names on a show made you a promoter. You forgot one important thing....pro wrestling is a BUSINESS!! Please do yourself and everyone else a favor and stay away from our great business. You give us all a bad name.

Apparently the promoter said he presold 500 tickets and there were 70 people in attendance. The only people who got paid were Arn Anderson and Del Wilkes, who threatened to kick the promoter's rear end if they didn't get paid. They got cash from the "money man" after that. Everyone else got paid in bad checks or not at all. The legends' hotel rooms were all even canceled because the promoter's credit card was declined!

I have to give credit to highspots, they just refunded everyone for The Boss is Back due to the problems with the stream. The problems were pretty bad but credit to them for issuing blanket refunds instead of making you contact them for one.
