Guessing one of those is going to be vs. Callihan, which is why he's not in the tournament.

Yup. Tonight is Trevor vs Cody in Raleigh. I'm front row.

That's the thing. When it they do happen in that area it is someone who comes into money who thinks they can run a show and end up realising they can't. In this case the promoter is apparently is well over his head. Expect a lot of the wrestlers to pull out of the show over this weekend or so.

I told him that just because you're having niche success in 3-2-1 doesn't mean you can pull this poo poo off. Hipsters in Washington wanna see Battle cat not anything else really

I was there last night. It was great. Johnny's farewell speech lasted at least 45 minutes. I don't think it would translate to tape well though and a lot of it wouldn't make sense if you haven't been going to the AIW/shows in Cleveland for years.

The match was pretty interesting just taking it in on social media. Was kinda a mismash of ideas kicked around for it the last few months. I think originally it was going to be Gargano This Is Your Life gauntlet but with so many key players are signed and inaccessible that idea was rendered impossible. Also WWE allowing Johnny to work an intergender match was kind of a favour and came with restrictions in terms of the level of physicality.

Trevor vs Cody was easily match of the night, but that wasn't a very high bar. Didn't break into my top ten Trevor Lee matches of the year.

His AAW match with Chris Hero is very good. I also enjoyed Chris Hero's post match promo where he threatened a fan who wouldn't shut his stupid loving piehole that if he didn't pipe down, "he'd go 1979 on his rear end".

Gonna be in the bay area for a bit and it looks like APW has Broken Matt Hardy vs someone named JR Kratos coming up soon. Does anyone know who JR Kratos is, and does he suck as much as he looks like he sucks

I've seen other wrestlers put him over on Twitter a few times but I've never seen him work so I can't really say. The Norcal indie scene hasn't produced much in recent years other than Thatcher and Cobb (and Brian Cage if you count him I guess).

He wrestles out here in so cal sometimes but I still couldn't tell you. My best guess is that he is fine. Not terrible, but against an old vet like hardy can pull out something pretty good.

I'm going to that show. Kratos is decent, I've seen him put on a couple good matches. He and some other local wrestlers were recently in this Strfkr music video: https://youtu.be/wDtBXvodb8M

This pleases me more than it should.

Is it because his face is the perfect wideness to replace Kingston's
