Every so often I realize how much I miss Tim Donst. I know he's doing a few indies here and there, mostly CZW (which...possibly isn't a thing anymore), but man. He's another guy I'm amazed hasn't been picked up for more.

Yeah, Donst was great. Let me see if I can find the gif...

Kind of nervous how little the taxi driver knew about the Silver Nugget for this GCW show which makes me worried getting a ride back at 230 AM after the Hoodslam show

Or maybe it's his and he's trying a new thing, not sure. He's from here (and apparently still lives here) so he shows up a lot, but usually not at the smaller indies.

He's gotta do something to top Tank "retiring" and holding a panel to "tell the REAL story about the Mike Levy incident" from SCI 2017 and then competing in multiple future SCI tournaments

They've had a singles match before, 2022 in Freedoms. And a great Tag Team deathmatch where Rina & Minoru Fujita faced Soul Meat for the Tag Titles

Tossing up whether to go to this. On one hand, seeing Suzuki will be great even if Low Ki might not show. On the other hand, the rest of the card will probably suck poo poo since the NHPW roster is several orders of quality below the other larger indy in Perth EPW where I usually go

Didn't Ki already cancel once when he was scheduled to face Suzuki at Bloodsport or something?

I was wrong, it was Minoru Suzuki who replaced Low Ki at the first Bloodsport after Ki tried to hold them up for money.

Watching Low Ki get murdered for stiffing Suzuki would be excellent to watch tbh.

I really thought Nick was going to keep it a while after the build he had, but he must be going AEW full time next month. Really fun show. About half the card was Vancouver/Lion's Gate Dojo people. Great to see ReLoaded show up in Defy for the first time. They got a great reception.

Galeno del Mal is the WIDEST MAN I HAVE EVER SEEN.

They also announced last night that Defy (and other indie wrestling) streaming will soon be available on a new site called Wremix, and you can sign up free for early access.

I wonder if the exclusive streaming service they started after leaving Fite last year didn't get the numbers they wanted - their monthly sub is way more expensive than most, and I can't imagine that helps new fans get into it.

Defy, Enjoy and PCW Ultra is a solid starting lineup for a streaming service.

They're promoting it as 100% free, with ads. Seems like a fair tradeoff for how much you save. I wonder if it'll have actual archives, or if Defy's back catalog is going to be on their site only.

I guess this has a better shot than the PWTV service that started with the same business plan last year but I dunno, ad supporting wrestling network does not seem like a good business plan.

Your Nightmare is supposed to be the first Defy show on it, so I hope they got clear audio of Christopher Daniels calling me an rear end in a top hat during his match. :v:
