The_Rob posted:70 bucks is honestly a lot though. I agree we should be paying good money for good wrestling, and if it keeps going up all they are doing is pricing more and more people out of their shows. Not to mention its 70 bucks for a ticket you'll probably spend like 20 bucks on beer 25 on a t shirt. It's a lot for every month. I'm fine if it's just for bola, they are bringing in lots of big names I just hope this isn't the new standard.

RealFoxy posted:BOLA is the Wrestlemania of the indies and if I had the opportunity to go I'd absolutely pay that much and not bat an eye. You're guaranteed three nights of the best wrestling in the world and that money helps them bring in the best wrestlers in the world. I agree bola is fantastic. I just know that the last couple of years bola has set the standard for their regular ticket prices.

ok show report from AAW United We Stand prelim match was a six-person intergender tag match. rules SEEMed to suggest that women were only supposed to wrestle women but idk. conor braxton, eddie machete and scarlett bourdeaux from the tyler black/marek brave wrestling school against gary jay, his rando partner whose name I didn't catch, and the returning angelus layne match was fine for a dark match while half the crowd is still at the bar or merch tables. braxton/machete/scarbo got the win after braxton bicycle kicked angelus layne behind the ref's back and scarlett pinned her. scarlett is i dunno 30% improved from when i saw her wrestle a hoopla/roh show here in 2014? braxton did 0 hoverboard spots but he has a good look and potential show opened with a five-person mayhem match which is supposed to be like a cibernetico but first pinfall wins instead of elimination. first out was candice lerae who had not been advertised. then buck nasty, dezmond xavier, davey vega and colt cabana. match was primarily comedy and it all more or less worked. dezmond xavier did a couple biiig dives to the outside and i saw a couple people getting his shirts which i hadn't seen at his last few appearances. they did a gimmick with colt doing atomic drops to people to set them up for candice's ballplex and then they went to do stereo ballsplexes but colt got grossed out by grabbing somebody's balls. finish came when everyone was grouped up outside for another big dive by xavier and davey vega cut him off in mid-sprint and rolled him up for the win video promo by sami callihan and the killer cult of jt davidson, oi4k and jessicka havok. a hot promo in the context of a yelly intense guy. he put over that it was jake crist's return from retirement and i think said havok was the best of any of them josh alexander defeated silas young. silas was the undefeated aaw champ for like three years and he cut a promo on alexander about alexander's reign which consisted of like one title defense. also silas said "fwacing." this match was good and had a very hot finish hooligans v. oi4k. eddie kingston came out before the match started and joined as a single to make it a 5-man 3-way match. this mostly consisted of brawling around outside the ring but not into the crowd. not much flow to it. i think oi4k won i dont remember zack sabre jr and cedric alexander had a loving phenomenal match. you should get this show to see it. zsj tapped him out but they did a good mutual show of respect that wasnt as ostentatious as WOW WE HAD A WAR but instead was like drat you got me but i almost had you. both guys came away looking like two of the best in the business fenix d marty scurll. good match, better than the drago or aerostar matches from last month, probably because fenix is better than them. fenixes rope-bounce dives got over big with people who probably hadnt seen much of him before. actually i think this crowd actually had a smaller latino contingent than the last few shows with lucha guys booked. no mexican flags or airhorns which is disappointing because that enhances the atmosphere. marty got going as a heel pretty well although his banter is v corny to me. everyone threw money afterwards because thats just obligatory now i guess. fenix got on the stick and said thank you and started a 'please come back' chant for marty jessica havok v heidi lovelace was the first match after intermission i believe. havok won pretty decisively i think trevor lee and andrew everett out for the semi-main. johnny gargano got a big reception for his entrance and then ciampa got streamers and the whole shebang for his. 'please dont go' chants and 'you deserve it' before the match started. johnny put on ciampas doctor doom mask and ciampa put on johnny's little coat. trevor got on the stick and cut a promo congratulating them but then made a snide comment about them going to developmental while he and andrew were in the real big leagues of tna. gargano took the mic and said 'i understand you guys were having flight issues but...... i knew you'd come.' so then there were DELETE and brother nero chants. i was heavily booed for chanting tna later in the match. i dont remember this match much except they did a slo-mo dance-off spot and i think ciampa got the pin? so then ciampa got on the mic and said well anyway i talked to danny daniels and something something i'll be back but this is johnny's last show so gargano did a farewell promo about how he wouldnt have gotten started in DGUSA if he hadnt been at an AAW show back in 200x and whatever it was nice. callihan v pentagon jr for the belt. match didnt really find a rhythm early and they went to pretty standard brawling around the ring and chops on the guardrail and spilled over the guardrail only briefly. pentagon's chops were fuckin savage though, i've seen him three or four times now and these were his loudest chops ever. pentagon lost his shirt and chopped the singlet off sami lol. it really started to heat up when dave crist and then jake crist and then jt davidson interfered and pentagon dispatched all of them and then it got bonkers for the false finishes, at least three of which i totally bought. pentagon pinned him with the last falconry i think and the pop was huge and then he started promoing in spanish and i dunno what he said but he is extremely cool and badass while saying it. so psycho killer hit and ciampa came out and explained that he talked to danny daniels and the aaw title is the one thing that has been eluding him and he picked up the money int he ring and threw it in pentagons face and said 'i just signed with the biggest wrestling company on earth. i dont need your $1 bills' so he definitely took a bit of a heel slant. he specified that match will be in berwyn which i think rules out august and it will be a very hot matchup. palpable buzz in the air after a great finish, title change and then that challenge here's fray idk gently caress him he unfollowd me https://twitter.com/TheFrayMovement/status/757570107170168832 def go out of your way to see zsj/cedric Super No Vacancy posted:shigehiro irie is announced for august also moose team tremendous mundo callihan hero evans trevor kongo i think the only match announced for august is mundo v. callihan moose is like their third farewell that immediately returned lol

Pentagón/Callihan was one of the hottest finishes I've seen live. That crowd was going insane and we just came unglued on the second Fear Factor. It was so satisfying seeing Hot Topic: The Wrestler come up against a dude more evil and brutal than he could ever hope to be and just getting his whole poo poo pushed in. Shame Pentagón didn't break both of his arms.

Gabe has run some really, really bad venues during the DGUSA/EVOLVE run, probably because they are the cheapest and the live crowd doesn't really matter compared to the iPPV.

They've since got rid of that... That was from a few years ago. It was also the name of Dickinson's best of dvd on it's first run but was renamed to Born to Rule the World.

I haven't followed indy wrestling in a long time, do Maff and Homicide not hate each other anymore? I just remember Homicide saying "it's him or me" to all the northeast indies and calling Maff a pedophile leading to Maff being blackballed from wrestling except for the odd appearance in Puerto Rico or something.

Orpheum doesn't mind it when SHINE does spots off the bar or when Saraya Knight decks a patron. That's a super sweet heart deal.

Big ups to NQQ for helping me and his brother get tickets thanks to all the other jokers from last year's crew skipping out And yeah, people who can't go or bought too many tickets are pretty cool about selling them for face value rather than jacking their asking price way up.
