Stage AE was pretty good venue for ROH and NXT years ago; it still feels pretty intimate but it's a bit fancier for lack of a better term than Mr. Smalls. I will miss the unique vibes of Mr. Smalls, though, but I understand the need to expand a bit. The last few shows there have been jam-packed.

Fingers crossed this is a big show for them! I imagine they'll be advertising like crazy during Tacomania next weekend, too.

I just want it to be a LU reunion show, gimme Matanza, Killshot, Willie Mack, (ugh even Prince Puma). It's a loving shame Darby got his foot run over and hit by a bus cause he'd fit in perfectly with the LU aesthetic and probably given a zombie dead boy background story too.

HOLY poo poo SAMMY was on Lucha Underground??? Put him on the show to do dangerous flippy poo poo from that platform to the ring please. Son of Havoc, Drago, Rey Horus, Texano Jr., King Cuerno........

I went out to my parking deck today and there was a gatdamn wrestling ring set up on the bottom floor. Vary morales and Angelica risk were in the top two matches with nightmare factory belts on the line?!. I eventually got smartened up that it was a cinco(cuatro?) de mayo festival that moved there to get out of the rain. Anyway I wasn’t planning on eating carne asada tacos and watching a weird mix of 80% Memphis rasslin/20% lucha libre but I had a good Saturday

Hell yeah, this sounds awesome.

I went to a wrestling/heavy metal show at a local brewery today; all the wrestlers were local guys from Eastern Wrestling Alliance, including such luminaries as Oldman Youngboy, Beefcake (a cow from Hell), Hobo Harry, and Eel O'Neal. Needless to say, I hooted and hollered.

It was in a venue that I can't recall them having done before in Chicago. There was a barricade in front of the crowd which was weird, I also think this venue was having some issues with death matches because during the second match one of the commentators had to go to talk to the venue owner and potentially grease them with some more money. There was no light tubes, no panes of glass, nothing excessively violent. In fact the first match (MM3 vs Jake Crist) is like a straight up wrestling match. The last ~3 matches saved the show, but boy was it weird.

I thought the show rocked except that Jake Crist match but yeah the planned venue pulled out at the last second so they ran the logan square auditorium, which requires barricades and doesn't allow glass

i was there last night, it was really loving weird. it was hot as gently caress and yeah the venue is no glass/limited blood, etc and after the first match someone squealed to the owner. justice was told he couldn't even jump off the modest balcony.

tbh, dillinger and doc had the best match, made the most of restrictions and dillinger was a last minute change.

i hope it was the last show under dannys leadership, he's just not any fuckin good at being a business man

i live in louisville and in the kentuckiana indie community we all know that if john wayne murdoch bails, things are dire

also it's worth noting that while danny insists the reason they couldn't run the berwyn eagles is because the owner says their insurance won't cover it any longer, what he's leaving out is that the insurance wouldn't cover the damage his company did, and that rpw still runs there

I don't know what the gently caress I'm watching right now on ICW NHB 20, but this match is loving insane. Satu Jinn vs. Hoodfoot

EDIT:

This match is loving incredible. Holy loving poo poo.

I've been watching since ICW 20. I have loved ICW and it's given me a huge appreciation for deathmatch wrestling. I've seen some incredible matches (Hoodfoot vs Sadika ICW NHB 31) and some really poo poo matches, but it's a promotion I watched religiously when they ran shows and I'm going to miss it a ton. I'm going to go back with a friend and watch the first 19 NHB's just so I can see I've seen everything :D

Enjoy announced a couple fun matches for their big Immaculate show at Tacomania; Breeze and Dango vs The Runway and David Lawless vs Mr. Grimm in a steel cage match

Tacomania was fun too! Had to come in the clutch for the videographer since it started to rain at the end and gave my umbrella to protect the main camera. Also Edith Surreal did her match for the first block as champ and went straight out back to Philly since she has some shoot job she has to do.

High Tension Wrestling in Philly keeps adding affiliates. Or they are now under the HTW umbrella, fwiw. They had Smash Master Wrestling (up in the Lehigh Valley), and Combat Fights United. They just added Pro Wrestling Explosion, which tended to run 1 or 2 no ring shows a year that were mixed with bands preforming and probably topped out at 40-50 a show. Kind of curious what the long term plans are.

We're back again with another group in Southern WV!

Retro Reset Rasslin'

With your announcers Jason Shaffer, and "The Outlaw Rockstar" "Sweet" Stephen Hensley (he keeps adding names, man).

Wrestlers that I can name off the top of my head:
Jason "The Gift" Kincaid (he'd kick my rear end if I didn't list him first)
"The King of Beckley, Bradley, and two Go-Marts" Jeff Paul
Black Ice - Current Tag Team Champs, James Frost, and BBC (All of their matches are must-watch for the commentary. Everyone goes crazy over BBC.)
OK (He's alright)

And many more that I'm gonna hear about cause I didn't list!!!

Website - https://indyworldwrestling.com/retro-reset/

YouTube Playlist - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLVr7jcJ7ZqyM5d0e8w4NxmuMxSsYMo0DR

Hopefully, I'll post updates on Tripple R here more often. It's been nearly a year since we started talking to them about doing all this. It's been great getting back out into the wrestling world again, and this entire company has been great to work with.
