It's at a minor league ballpark so they may be paying him in additional exposure (to the elements).

Or he's even dumber than he appears to be and thinks he's wrestling at PNC Park or something in front of tens of thousands of fans.

Related question, does EC3 have any matches worth seeking out, other than the 5 star match?

The EC3/Rockstar Spud hair vs hair match is still pretty good, bolstered by a fantastic blade job by Spud.

And IWC is one of the longest running indies out there, it's not a fly by night place.

The only time I remember anyone on PSP having that sentiment was when he was doing backstage comedy bits with Danielson in whatever gameshow-era NXT season he was on. I can't imagine anyone (beyond IMPACT homers) thinking he had any potential when he was brought back to superindie-era NXT.

I guess I'm a TNAcolyte because I totally thought EC3 was the kind of guy Vince would push. Not that he's good, mind.

I’ve got a little CYN story. There was a local promoter who had booked a show as part of a big taco and margarita festival at the SAP Center in San Jose (home of the Sharks NHL team). Flip Gordon, EC3, and Scherr were all advertised as appearing on it.

Apparently a few weeks before the show they contacted the promoter and demanded that he change it to a CYN show, use their branding, and give them say in the booking. Of course the promoter told them no, so they pulled out and he had to scramble and get replacements. He ended up getting Lance Archer and I think John Morrison as replacements and the show went off pretty well.

They basically torpedoed a perfectly good booking because they wanted to Control Their Narrative.

Forcing a promoter to change the branding of his show sounds more like wanting to Control Other People's Narrative.

Archer vs Johnny Mundo sounds way more loving cool than whatever CYN was going to do with Scherr's lack of knees.

Thanks for this because now I'll probably grab a ticket for the Eddie Kingston show.

And yeah, 2nding the fact that this is a pretty huge local indy promotion, I used to go in high school and saw a ton of big names at the time. That's part of why Scherr showing up is so perplexing to me, is he enough of a draw to pay him big money? Is there someone out there who will go to their first independent show to see the former Braun Strowman?

AEW wrestlers who want bookings haven't had much trouble getting them, in fact they have two of them booked! Those who have no television time don't have the name value as a guy who was main eventing for WWE a year ago, even if he overestimated his market value.

The Black Box in Charlotte which is semi-close to me says it holds about 1500 but was only doing 1000 for COVID-related stuff. Some how I don't think that'll be a problem with exceeding that for our boys in CYN.
