I think you should find a style of wrestling you like and consider their subscription service. Wrestle Universe has a lot of Japanese Feds so there’s variety there. Stardom World has some really skilled Japanese wrestling. NJPW World has some classics in its archives. If you want more western ( English speaking)wrestling, I’m sure you can peruse the selection at Fite.

STONE COLD 64 posted:Reporting on something like this is very tricky and requires a lot of nuance, especially when you're an independant reporter who could be buried under mountains of libel suits even if what you are reporting is true and verifiable Exactly. Bix has been eluding to stuff like this for a couple years now on the Between The Sheets promo section of the pod since the first time Vince "left", but unless you wanted to be financially destroyed from WWE Legal, you need to be crafty about what you can actually report

Count Thrashula posted:Is there an easy way I can watch these thirteen different promotions from my couch on my Roku without paying like $70 a month for a live television service like Hulu Live TV or SlingTV or whatever The majority of them have streaming services. Some of these have Roku apps. Sadly for people in the US AEW is only available on TNT / TBS. For most people outside the US it's available via Fite. New Japan World costs $9.99 a month, has a Roku app, and gives access to probably more than a hundred shows a year with some of the best wrestlers in the world, including frequent crossovers with AEW talent. Wrestle Universe costs 900 yen a month (about $6), which gives you access to DDT (awesome comedy wrestling), Pro Wrestling Noah (historically amazing, currently pretty good) and Tokyo Joshi Pro Wrestling (the cutest promotion on the planet). They don't have a Roku app, but streaming through your phone is relatively easy. TNA / Impact Wrestling put all their shows on Youtube for $1 a month. They just show up in your Youtube subscriptions. A bunch of indies put their shows up on Fite Plus, which is $8 a month and has a Roku. A bunch more just put all their stuff on Youtube. I think CMLL put most of their shows on Youtube unless I'm mistaken. Most others you'll likely have to stream online and then stream to your TV. EDIT: Beaten to this by EMFiasco

a judicial system where corporate megaliths can just bury plaintiffs under legal fees is one of the innumerable things that is absolutely hosed about America. There is nothing else I can say about the topic that isn't unhinged doomerism.

JethroMcB posted:My big question at this point: Are the incriminating photos mentioned in the legal brief also on Donald Trump's phone? I remember reading that Vince was a person Trump almost always made phone time for, and that Trump usually took Vince's calls in private, which was a rarity. If Vince is showing this crap off to random IT guys, I have to imagine he'd try to impress his biggest perv buddy by sharing the evidence. Trump doesn't even get in trouble for his own sex crimes, I doubt he's going to get in trouble for someone else's sex crimes.

I didn’t realize you could see all of TNA for $1 a month. Don’t they have their own streaming service too? Is that just for PPV? Every couple of years I get curious and want to check them out but access to their shows has been a hurdle for a while.

Hey my posting pals what’s up? <reads thread> Jesus Christ. STONE COLD 64 posted:Thinking more and more about ashley massaro's incident and cant help but think that is absolutely blood on vince's hands It’s not like everyone was unaware. We already saw in this thread Ryan Nemeth spoke out and was blacklisted for it. Multiple women that were probably victims wanted it kept quiet because wwe was the big time and the only way they felt they could make money doing the business they loved. Tons of victims feel the need to keep quiet due to the power of the people that abused them. Sooner wwe is gone other places will spring up. Might they still be run by scumbags? Sure. They can also get shut down when people stop going until hopefully companies say “maybe we can’t just keep eating babies and puppies.” gently caress wwe. Burn it down. Salt the earth. Build something new somewhere else. Believe victims always. Sorry to be so serious but those details are repellent and make my soul hurt. It’s also extraordinarily obvious this has been going on longer than I’ve been alive. Not even sure I want to watch a dark side of the ring about this although some public doc should be made so it’s not memory holed like 99% of Vince’s crimes. So gross.

If we're recommending wrestling services then I'd be remiss from promoting 2023's Best Wrestling Promotion according to both me & the listeners of the Eastern Lariat podcast, All Japan Pro Wrestling https://www.ajpw.tv/ is 900 Yen a month, or £4.78 or $6.08. For your cost of 2 coffees a month from a well known high food chain you can get for the month of February 3 live shows, 2 shows that won't stream live but will go up later in & of course the archives, which go back to when the service launched in 2017, & aside from that there is also the Battle Library which includes a selection of matches from the companies post-NOAH split history. For example, you can see Toshiaki Kawada against the man better known as Umaga, Jamal, from 2004, there's a cracker between Pancrase founders Masakatsu Funaki & Minoru Suzuki, plenty to be going on with. But honestly, the current stuff is where it's at. In January there have been 3 live shows, plus a 4th that airs tomorrow (see the Puroresu thread for match lineup). December had 5 shows as well, I think they were all live streamed but I can't remember off the top of my head. There's no English commentator, there's only really Japanese commentary for the bigger shows, the production isn't exactly NOAH levels, All Japan is basically an indy as far as presentation stuff goes, but good lord it's an indy with my #1 & #2 wrestlers of 2023 plus my numbers #5, #6 & #8, plus my #4 & #9 regularly worked there despite it not being their home promotion.

delightful posted:Sure, whatever, those people who had nothing at all to do with this deserve to also suffer. Vince, Lauranitis, Brock, and anyone else who did or enabled this poo poo should rot in hell, but the average wrestler didn't do this. The average production assistant didn't do this. Joe Camera Operator didn't do this. They do not deserve to suffer for the sins of the boss. Vince has been pulling crap like this for a long, long time. He needs to be humbled and brought to justice, and if the industry is so toxic that him being gone kills it, then it deserves to die.

Erin M. Fiasco posted:I would not recommend it! Create Royal Rumble thread. OP is simply links to: - the most informative articles regarding VKM's abhorrent crimes; - an article or PSP post that lays out that many WWWF/E higher-ups and career men must have been complicit in order to keep VKM's (and other folks) crimes hush-hush; - the most appropriate well-regarded charities or support networks (i.e. RAINN). Lock thread. (Not absolutely necessary obv, but I don't know how many folks are the equivalent of playoff sports fans, and will only dip into PSP the day of the event to see if it's worth watching)
