I don't know what the dumbest part of this is, Bandido thinking he could get away with just putting Banks in a mask and nobody would notice or Banks wearing his New Zealand themed boots as part of his "disguise"

unless Travis Banks committed to not taking the mask off around dabois, that's totally on Bandido.

Bandido booked an unmasked Travis Banks and got poo poo for it and apologized I guess and then went to book him again but under a mask

The Nick Gage Invitational was really good. I have friends that watched Full Gear with me that were really weirded out when I said "Hey I'm going to watch some death match wrestling" and they joined me for it. They were horrified, but hypnotized at the same time. It was pretty hilarious.

Lord Crewe is solid. He has an A+ look but I've watched him live several times at Unsanctioned Pro shows and it's never really been anything special or anything terrible.


I saw a tag team at one of those shows called the Hooligans and they loving ruled but I haven't seen them work anywhere in a while.

If it's the same Hooligans as were rolling through AAW once in a while, I think one of them extremely broke their leg.

Probably the 3rd or 4th attempt at this point. There was a 10th anniversary show in 2008 that was run by the guys behind WSX that was only a one-off, and a couple of years later someone also randomly ran an XPW-titled show in Mexico. Aside from those actual events Black has talked plenty of times about all the great plans he had for a restart, but none ever came to fruition until this year's show.

so afaik, the British indies are still dead, and ICW in particular is still a moribund Fed-adjacent shithole which has done bugger-all to rebuild in the wake of #SpeakingOut, but for whatever reason, a few months ago, my Mum bought me tickets for both nights of Fear And Loathing this weekend in Glasgow.

I have the tickets, so I might as well go. Here's the card:

card seems decent enough tbh. Looking forward to the Akira match, if nothing else.

And for those wondering, check out Lord Crewe's runs through NPU and the UWFi series. He starts out as this kind of poser lookin dude and eventually ascends to the rank of murderbois.

It’s obviously the venue’s business and not GCWs, but the thin blue line flag being visible up there in the background of the NGI is both disturbing and very funny.

I believe the reason is that jeff cobb really hated the matanza mask and it was very hard to wrestle in, as sick as it is

Yeah, still weird to have him come out as Matanza, unmask, and then have the announcers say "That's Jeff Cobb". The retroactive implications for Lucha Underground are hilarious, since they're keeping the lore going.

can't believe they'd book Jeff Cobb disguised as Matanza. Who'd ever believe they were anything alike
