I guess Davey gave up on "medical school." That Warrior Wrestling card does look pretty great! It looks like our local indie hasn't officially folded due to the pandemic but there's been no talk of shows now that restrictions are off, so we'll see what happens.

Apparently Jon Moxley and Mike Bailey had a match at Wrestling Revolver last weekend and that sounds extremely worth watching.

Bonk posted:I just watched the Warrior show from May and the card was great but they focused way too much on Frank in the storylines and even cut to him during a match when he was on commentary, so I'm looking forward to Rikishi getting clown makeup all over one cheek. Yeah, Frank's presence is a big negative. It's generally well-produced with some great matches, though the cards haven't involved as many big names lately so I wonder if they're trying to save money. I'm not sure how an indie run by a teachers' association (or something) works from a financial perspective to begin with. Here's a cool gallery of some indie wrestlers.

Oh hey, we have an indie again! https://twitter.com/TopTalentBrand/status/1541484398976987137 Looks like they have Davey Richards and Gringo Loco booked for a show this Thursday, which is pretty decent for way up here.

If this week wasn't a disaster I'd probably go.

Lamuella posted:Remembering going to see King Of Trios in 2017, which in retrospect was a perfect confluence of weird era Chikara and the last days of the BritWres boom. Picking out just the people who went on to do more, that show featured: Man Quack is a turd but he had a good eye for talent, pretty great taste, and mystifyingly deep pockets (or great skill in convincing people to work cheap).

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... https://twitter.com/AEWEnhance/status/1344585554483179521

I was going to ask why ADR isn't in jail, but I guess the charges were dropped for some no doubt legitimate reason. quote:Rodríguez was arrested on 9 May 2020, in San Antonio, Texas after allegedly battering and sexually assaulting his girlfriend. He was booked into the Bexar County jail and charged with one count of sexual assault and one count of assault causing bodily harm.[20][269][270][271] Rodríguez was later released on $50,000 bail at approximately 3:30 A.M. on 10 May.[272] On 9 October, Rodríguez was indicted by a grand jury and formally charged with aggravated kidnapping and sexual assault, two felonies.[273] Rodriguez's trial was delayed several times,[274] until the charges were ultimately dropped on 10 December 2021.[275] CombineThresher posted:Court Bauer going out of his way to book pieces of poo poo and/or guys disliked by most of their peers is a business strategy I've never quite understood. There's money to be made by booking "politically incorrect" talent. I'm surprised no one has made that an explicit part of their promotion yet.

MassRafTer posted:There really isn't. TNA signed as many discount cancelled guys as they could pre-pandemic and it didn't work, it doesn't work in XPW and it doesn't look like it was working in Circle 6 either. Interesting - I guess maybe the right wing grift doesn't work because WWE has most of that audience captured? Glad to see the attempts fail, in any case.
