flashy_mcflash posted:I don't know if I've asked this before but why is AAW's poster design on such a higher level than any other indie and even WWE most of the time? Is it one person doing it? The bottom one looks like absolute poo poo, terrible graphics quality.

Jenkem Delivery posted:APW is running a show at the Cow Palace on Saturday. Waltman is booked but who knows now with the drug charges. Main event is Cody Rhodes vs. Joey Ryan in a steel cage. They have Mundo vs. Cage vs. Cobb in a triple threat, a big 30 man rumble and Shotzi Blackheart vs Candice LeRae. Only front row is sold out and the show is on Saturday? That is... not good.

Jenkem Delivery posted:Rows 2-10 are sold out now, but yeah it's way too big of a venue. Although they mostly run tattoo and marijuana expos there now so maybe the rental costs aren't very high? Like the Alamo Dome it's cheap to rent.

Charles Gnarwin posted:I doubt any match on the card will have NJPW implications, especially considering how badly ROH bungled the Kenny/Cody match and New Japan just basically ignored it. They pretty clearly aren't ignoring it, they just haven't gotten around to it yet. They just main evented a show with Cody/Kota and Kenny/Hangman.

STAC Goat posted:So does Chikara have a solid streaming service? Like is it worthwhile and practical to subscribe for a few months and binge the last few years because some of that sounds kind of fun and interesting. ROH has a lot of content on their service there's just very little pre 2010.

Boco_T posted:Gonna fly to Atlanta for a third time to see Rush, the biggest Mucha Lucha Atlanta match yet: Park is a unique case since he's an outsider but CMLL tries to book bald/unmasked dudes in the weeks after big apuesta matches because it does good business to see them unmasked or shaved.

Boco_T posted:I don’t know about short on money, it’s more that Park is 52 and he heard about Wagner getting a quarter mil for his mask last year. Why not get that much when you don’t have that many of your best athletic years left. Park being ugly will only help him.

Grozz Nuy posted:are we presuming park is losing? i guess that makes rush being willing to get his rear end beat a bunch during the build make more sense, but i thought the traditional draw of a mask/hair match is to watch the heel lose and get humiliated by the shave There are reports that Park and CMLL have agreed on a price for his mask. My own assumption is Park is winning and they'll try to get another year or two out of it. Rush has never lost his hair and has the most valuable hair in the business. Normally if I saw legendary mask vs hair I'd assume the hair is being cut. But in this case Park is getting up there, saw the price Wagner got and thinks now is the time to cash in.

Phenix Rising posted:This match is not doing much to excite me about present-day CHIKARA. Trashbag Abyss is my favorite wrestler on the planet and it is exciting to know there is a whole stable of them. Match was so loving sloppy though but whatever people liked it. I'd have been happy for it not to be on the show and to get home half an hour earlier. In its place just give me a Trashbag Abyss promo.

Gage punched a chair that was being held by his opponent, you can't DQ Gage and it's still to DQ the opposing team since they were hurt by stupidly holding a chair during a wrestling match.

SatoshiMiwa posted:You have to know a large portion of the TV money is going to be spent on 3 year deals for new talent to run the indies out of high end talent. Deals that won't be renewed if the indies die WWE isn't going to raise their salary structure they are just going to offer more people lovely deals. So they'll bring more people in but not everyone.
