GAEC Meeting Recap

The Georgia Athletic and Entertainment Commission held a public hearing today in Atlanta, GA, with Bill Behrens speaking for the Georgia Wrestling Promoters Advisory Committee. Joining Behrens were Frank Aldridge and John Taylor.

The Commission voted to table the proposed rules due to the fact new GAEC Executive Director Andy Foster and Behrens have been maintaining dialogue to negotiate a situation that will work for both sides. Cary Icther was present, but did not vote, since he feels the pending lawsuit against Total Nonstop Action on behalf of Konnan is a conflict of interest.

There will, however, be a vote next month that is expected to resolve the issue that has now been ongoing since November 2007.
