I'm not posting this because I expect anyone to be there, and as far as I know they don't have DVDs or a streaming service. I just want to bring attention to the weirdest loving money mark promotion in America right now. They're ran by a private catholic school and everyone that's wrestled there has always said they get paid super well, the promoters and venue are great, and they even order free catering for the wrestlers. This promotion is just so loving weird.

I'm not going to get a Highspots sub since it's almost prime WM week season but this promotion is still weird as heck. It's like PWG on a major budget. I have no idea what the actual content is like, but every card I see from them has a ton of great on paper matches.

Apparently the shows are usually good. A big advantage they have is the guy promoting the shows is the Principal of the school they run (or something like that), they are run as fundraisers for the school so they have no rent or lighting/PA hire costs and a lot of the people involved are volunteers. Which means they can bring in Minoru Suzuki or Barbaro Cavernario and indy stars and still more than break even.

What I'm saying is Super Dragon should find a way to be a private High School teacher and massively reduce PWG's overheads

I’m not going to this event unless something changes drastically by tomorrow, but I did go to the previous two shows and had a blast. The back half of Warrior Wrestling 7 was basically a NJPW house show, and was one of the best times I’ve had at a live show.

Yeah, its been discussed but the gist of it is that catholic schools know how to hold fundraising events on a budget and someone decided to apply the system to running a wrestling promotion instead of casino nights.

He probably also does casino nights.

What works about Frank is that we've got an idea what clowns are like in wrestling and he avoids that entirely. He's a massive dirtbag in clown makeup, and that's just fun.

GCW's probably gonna be more fun. Warrior usually doesn't livestream, but as much as I'm interested in the possibility of new champs Kylie Rae and Lance Archer, it's not enough to want to see Tessa and Elgin in title matches, especially when Effy/Deppen is on the other show. That's just imo though

If I was going to watch one it'd be Warrior because that lineup is rad, Shelley vs Narita should rule, Cavernario vs Templario, Rascalz vs Stronghearts is great on paper, & the title match sounds fascinating. Black Taurus should win, Black Taurus rules.
