Cagematch is down so I can't see who he's wrestled, but he did a Glass match with G-Raver in 2017, so let's just assume everyone in GCW has HIV right now

All it's going to take is one outbreak and blood in wrestling will be gone forever

Increased probability that the entire three hour one Clusterfuck match of Joey Janela’s Spring Break 3 Part Two is all build for who killed the invisible man

I want to see this just because I want to see the sum totality of a purely WWE trained wrestler against Orange Cassidy

It's wild to me that Orange Cassidy, a dude who is very much just wrestling as a hobby, is going to fight someone from WWE.

Im over here waiting to see how this doesnt work out, even though the only time someone hasnt showed up to a MLA show was when Jeff Cobb got hurt at The Crash the day before a few years ago (Tho last show's advertised main event of Rush vs PARK turned into PARK/Park Jr vs Rush/Mecha Wolf)

Ethan Page posted:

The amount of people texting me, who are in the industry so I’m not going to add them to my public hate for Davey Richards, everyone I told the story to was like, “Eh, that’s Davey.”

I don’t like that that is ok. Only in our job is that an answer. Eh, it’s Davey? No! When does professionalism ever become the most important part of our job? It won’t because skill will always dictate success and that’s so annoying to me.

I have no problem burying him. I have no respect for that guy. He used to be one of my favorite wrestlers. He’s a joke.

That's no way to talk about a paramedic/fire fighter who is the true hero here. he took time to talk to a person he saved and that's why he no showed one event.

Say what you will about Davey but at least he’s put on some legitimately good matches and has a decent in-ring presence, neither of which anyone could ever accuse Ethan Page of.

Page isn't calling him out over ability, though

Saying "skill will always dictate success" and meaning that as a bad thing seems like a really bad and self-defeating way for Page to phrase his complaint.

Like, showing up on time is a skill as much as putting on an entertaining wrestling match is, and Page's problem is that people are willing to forgive deficiencies in the former if someone excels at the latter.

And I'm not even sure that's true. Like, yeah, Davey gets bookings, but you know who is more professional than Davey and is getting bigger paychecks? Roderick Strong. Is he a better wrestler than Davey? That's debatable, but only one of them is getting that WWE money. Low Ki is another example, he's a skilled wrestler whose lack of professionalism has overshadowed that skill, and as a result is demonstrably less successful than his skill taken on its own would dictate.

Davey Richards has no middle ground. He'll either put on amazing matches or boring rear end rolodex of moves nonsense.

There are younger guys with less brain issues that work smarter than Davey with more consistently exciting matches. Evolve has an entire roster full of crossfit fighters. Let Davey gently caress over some shindie money mark.

Does Davey have mental health issues because his commitment issues with bookings and quitting wrestling and then deciding to come back briefly paints him as fickle or could be seen as troubling.

Most under-the-radar I've seen a PWG show be in terms of attention from general communities the week one's happening, but anyway the card for PWG 200 tonight

Jeff Cobb defends the world title against Bandido
The Rascalz defend the tag titles against Lucha Bros and LAX
Jonathan Gresham vs David Starr
Darby Allin vs Brody King
Trey Miguel vs Jake Atlas vs Jungle Boy
Laredo Kid vs Puma King
Aussie Open vs Best Friends

He has a pretty good excuse. For those who don't know, Luke Perry is his dad and Luke had a massive stroke.
