I love how that letter is only tangentially about Joey Styles and more about burying Quack and Gabe.

It's useless.
Why do most of these open letters not understand that he broke a specific rule? It's obvious that they don't understand that Gabe's vision for booking is much different than Heyman's.

Because of the unwritten rule of not burying your own talent publically


Sorry dawn, that rule went out of the window with Benoit

Gabe is still a petty man. He went through and blocked everyone that followed that Gabe parody account years ago in spite.

Only the title match announced though, and the show wasn't announced as DDT4. So it looks like the tag tournament might be taking a year off.

This was a good watch.

I was :stare: at DJ Hyde's story of driving home drunk from a party, finding another man with his girlfriend, throwing said man out of a three story window and fighting the cops when they showed up about why he became a wrestler. It's also adorable how he makes all the CZW dvds himself.

I don't really know the first thing about CZW backstage stuff, but DJ Hyde seemed pretty normal for a wrestling promoter.

The actual doc it self didn't really go into too much depth but I get that it wasn't the point of it either.

when DJ took over for Zandig, he saved a dying company. Zandig managed to piss off everyone including their foreign excursion partners. This was around the time BJW decided to work with Chikara instead of CZW, in possibly one of the weirdest Tag World Grand Prix shows ever.

Yeah CZW was dire in from 2006 till midway through 2009 when Deej was basically shadow booking until owning it.

Deej seems like a pretty intellegent, well-spoken guy but I don't know many who's a bigger mark for themselves than he is. Low-Ki? At least DJ doesn't have a bad attitude about things.

Raven, HHH, and Bret Hart have to be in the running. Unless you mean strictly on the indies.

I mean on the indies, or in Low-Ki's case never made it in the WWE. Chris Hero came into NXT as one of the best wrestlers in the world, it didn't work out, and he's on the indies again but he's still one of the most humble guys I've ever talked to

In that case the answer is any Indie guy who worked for a cup of coffee in WCW or who did like two matches on Velocity in the early 00s. I cant remember how many indie shows I saw back then listing people as "former WCW/WWF wrestlers!" and it ended up being a dude who jobbed to 2 Sexay on an episode of Heat before a PPV.
