OTTUMWA, IOWA -- With all the Olympic hype going on right now with the London games, you might be even more excited to know that a gold medal Olympian is going to be in Ottumwa on August 18th, but in a different capacity.

TNA wrestling will be coming to Ottumwa’s Bridge View Center, bringing Olympian Kurt Angle and wrestling star Jeff Hardy.

This is an event that no one is going to want to miss.

“I know that for the guys, they are going to want to see the TNA Knockout Girls. There is just a lot of action. It is great family entertainment. They just played the event in November in Vicksburg and I told them, I said that I am moving to Iowa, and the promoter said we are going to have to change all of our routing then, and kidding around, but he latterly built the weekend around Ottumwa,” said Larry Gawronski, Executive Director of Ottumwa’s Bridge View Center.

Tickets for the event can be purchased through the Bridge View Center box office, here.
