Any Japanese ones? AIW, Freelance, SoCal Pro, Alpha-1, CaraLucha, DTU Extremo, Lucha Memes, Grand Slam Wrestling, High Risk Wrestling, Why We Wrestle, NWA Smokey Mountain, Tier 1 Wrestling, and a couple more i haven't heard of couldn't care less about japanese promotions getting in on these streaming services because they're all easy to watch as it is but the mexican indies are super exciting possibilities, and a lot of the smaller regional usa promotions have good reputations with zero distribution

I only ask about Japanese companies because I like the idea of being able to watch DDT or BJW on my Roku, I dislike watching wrestling on my computer unless it's with other people A shame ISW and Beyond aren't on there though. Although Beyond has a Roku channel, I think. El Gallinero Gros fucked around with this message at 20:25 on Oct 28, 2016 |

oatgan posted:would be willing to place money on beyond being in talks with FloSlam I honestly know too much about FloSlam to comment on it. But yeah there's been enquiries. The most interesting thing I want to SEE with my own eyes even after a number of people verifying that it is true is the amount of money EVOLVE is getting per show. Which is still unbelievable to me. Sal is entitled to recoup years of possible losses but I hope the talents see a lot of it. Also Riddle vs Angle.

rare Magic card l00k posted:Do you mean revenue coming in through ticket sales/merchandise and whatnot or FloSlam money? FloSlam money. It is the equivalent of a big budget wrestling show's budget essentially. If they start bringing in Angle, Rey or ADR suddenly we will find out. Hope the existing roster get a bump in pay, more UK guys and Visas for Canadians. rovert fucked around with this message at 21:57 on Oct 28, 2016 |

the one thing i really want to see from FloSlam (a name i still hate typing out) is expand Evolve options because while I love Evolve I'm seeing the same 8 guys wrestle each other months after month, and maybe talk to SHIMMER about getting their tapes and putting shows out much sooner if not live streamed. SHIMMER's taping schedule is weird enough as is but I think that's more out of necessity with their terrible distribution rather than baked into the promotion.

Prazak seems to have checked out of SHIMMER mentally for the large part. The last two years fans privately wondered if the next taping is the last. The booking is decidedly different corroborating the rumours he doesn't have that much to do with it anymore. Also the promotion fulfilled it's mission as serious women's Wrestling is everywhere you turn now. Last year Prazak said his exit strategy was to sell his tape library to WWE. I know SHIMMER and it's fans have perception problems but some of the absolute best indie matches have come from there.

Fair warning before signing up for a year of that is that around half of those US/Canadian promotions heavily feature Ethan Page.

If the lucha indies, AIW, and Freelance are in on that deal is enough to sell it for me tbh.

I know it's not the same, but he won a tourney run by them for an offshoot promotion called DNA, and he got to tag with Dick Motherfucking Togo at Ryogoku Peter Pan, their biggest show of the year

If FloSam is throwing around a ton of money with the dream of people paying $20/month to watch a mishmash of indies, I sure hope the indies get as much as they can up front

El Gallinero Gros posted:Man, the Bucks really need to drop the PWG tag belts. It's gotta be happening during DDT4 I think. Especially if they're really going to WWE, which I doubt but I guess anything's possible once their ROH deal is up. I think it'll be Best Friends, to further the Chuck Taylor winning streak angle. But that wouldn't solve the underlying problem of NJPW tours loving up PWG's ability to hold tag title matches, so maybe they'll do something out of left field instead.

El Gallinero Gros posted:Man, the Bucks really need to drop the PWG tag belts. At this point it wouldn't surprise me if the goal is for the Bucks to break their previous record 600+days long title reign. It already is the third-longest reign as is (no need to wonder who is in the #2 spot), and IIRC hasn't even announced the next show yet.

Blast Fantasto posted:I'm hoping that whatever issue is making it so SSB can't wrestle gets resolved and they can come take the belts off the Bucks I'd be very okay with this. I think right now the correct decision if they drop the belts would be a team with no Japan commitments, as Nuy alluded to. Maybe instead of Best Friends, put 'em on Officer and a Gentleman. I'd also love to see PWG start using the Amazing Gulaks.
