I don't know whether they could do All in or DON numbers (probably not, AEW won't even be doing those numbers once they start on a more regular schedule but I've learned not to downplay them at this point) for that but The Elite are a proven indie draw at this point.Yes, actually. You're crazy if you think Kenny Omega is a 20,000 seat draw if AEW were running a show in Dallas in the middle of July.
Wrestling isn't popular.
Nobody said they aren't popular but they're not sell out a 20K arena by themselves. People are setting themselves up for a lot of disappointment if they believe AEW is going to reignite the Monday Night Wars or something. Wrestling isn't popular and there's like a billion different options for things to watch on TV and why would almost anyone watch wrestling.Again, didn't say they could do All In numbers but The Elite are a proven indie draw at this point.
They are popular.
Yeah, I've seen people doing that but they need to remember even Cody and The Bucks themselves have said they're not direct competition.Nobody said they aren't popular but they're not sell out a 20K arena by themselves draw like people around ye old interwebs are implying. People are setting themselves up for a lot of disappointment if they believe AEW is going to reignite the Monday Night Wars or something.
There was a notable change in the interview style, with interviews more based on reality than scripted soliloquies that nobody in real life would say. It was a refreshing change, coming off the reality-based twitter stuff with Lynch and Rousey and others have since copied because the company believes it's been a huge success in the sense people actually buy Rousey being an enemy of the state based on her saying wrestling is a scripted world.
What happened was TNA gave him a better deal, Storm told HHH the situation, HHH told him to take the TNA deal because it was more money for less time and closer to family, and it would have been nuts to turn that down especially when he said he wanted another kidWas there really a rumor going around long ago that James Storm really turn down a deal at some point with the WWE becuase TNA promised him another tag title run?
Because that sound almost too dumb to believe.
Thanks.What happened was TNA gave him a better deal, Storm told HHH the situation, HHH told him to take the TNA deal because it was more money for less time and closer to family, and it would have been nuts to turn that down especially when he said he wanted another kid
My God.
Fucking Punishment Martinez got a win. Meanwhile, Keith Lee wasn't even booked for the tapings. Brian_FETO was right after all, Serene.
And if the former ACH isn't angling for a Hardee's sponsorship with that name, then what is he even doing?
Taka Michinoku is taking indie dates in the U.S. for $3,500 per shot plus a business ticket, which is why he's probably not going to be getting a ton of requests because of the added cost of the business ticket
DDT is changing their Universe subscriptions in May:
There's no longer different tiers, there's subscribers and non-subscribers (they add weekly free videos for non-subscribers, you just need to have an account, same thing for some live shows).
So they're killing of the cheaper archive-only silver tier and the higher priced platinum tier. Basically a win for everyone above silver since they're just adding more to gold.
At least this means everyone gets to enjoy the MOTY: Mizuki vs Yuka Sakazaki impersonation match!
They also have a new dojo and plan to do shows their that will be livestreamed.
Yeah, I've seen people doing that but they need to remember even Cody and The Bucks themselves have said they're not direct competition.
They want to be an alternative and if they hold true to that, they'll be looking to carve out their own niche, get a smaller fanbase hopefully looking for something different.
Basically do what TNA didn't and should have.
DDT has comedy but they still have a lot of totally serious and technically great wrestling as well. A lot of the time it's the undercard matches that have more comedy mixed in while the title matches/main events are serious.Ooh.
Been curious about Joshi wrestling and DDT.
I know DDT apparently has more of a comedic bent to it apparently than something like NJPW. Is Tokyo Joshi Pro worth checking out?
The personality differences between Kairi and Shayna will never stop being hilarious and immensely enjoyable to watch out play out.

Depends on your tolerance for bad wrestling versus good comedy. Also there is no translation so you won't understand the promos.Ooh.

Because they're horrified by his teeth, and he probably doesn't want to tour given his shoot job.

Oh god are they actually gonna run Orange Cassidy vs. Bryan Alvarez
3:30pm: Black Label Pro: Adventures in Wrestling (White Eagle Hall – Jersey City, NJ):
-Jonathan Gresham vs. Masato Yoshino
-Nick Gage vs. Swoggle
Team USA (Jordynne Grace, Kylie Rae, Shotzi Blackheart Nicole Savoy & Samanatha Heights) vs. Team International (Shazza McKenzie, Charli Evans, Jessica Troy, Zoe Lucas & Indi Hartwell)
-Orange Cassidy vs. Grado
-ICW/ICWA Texarkana Television Title Open Challenge: Bryan Alvarez (c) vs. ?
Nick Gage vs. Swoggle. I'm guessing Swoggle learned nothing from David Arquette. Gresham vs. Yoshino could be incredible. Orange Cassidy vs. Grado will be what it will be. I'd rather have Orange Cassidy vs. Bryan Alvarez, to be honest. The women's tag should be a lot of fun.
She doesn't even have the prop but still acts like she does, what a mark.
you lost the plot when you used the expression "shoot job"Because they're horrified by his teeth, and he probably doesn't want to tour given his shoot job.
That seemed a nicer way of saying "he'd fucking bore the Japanese crowd to tears and turn any hot stadium they run into an ice box."
why i oughtaThat seemed a nicer way of saying "he'd fucking bore the Japanese crowd to tears and turn any hot stadium they run into an ice box."
