@Rollie Forbes you know of anything worth checking?


tony khan killed the wrestlemania weekend star

What happened is WWE became a workrate show too in the early-mid 2010s, and the indies then didn't do anything better than WWE

this is revisionist on many levels


keith lee, lio rush and ospreay were killing shyt on wrestlemania weekend well past the early 2010s.

might have been different years on the ospreay one, but lio/lee was the same year.

i think tony's promotion started a signing war and there's really nothing left out there. still IMPACT/AAA, ROH pre AEW ownership (and the card looked way better the last 2 years even under AEW ownership) and other people used to run shyt. i could see my one SHIMMER show a year or a fukking kaiju big battle show at midnight after a few blunts.

now all that's left now is GCW and real zandig era CZW type indies

All I know is Supercard of Honor is gonna be a sleeper.

Stand and Deliver will be nice.

I don't think I've ever watched any of those other indy joints during the weekend even years ago except maybe when Dragon Gate USA was going strong.

With Mania going 2 nights it's probably not as easy as well.

Shida/Athena should be on a major Dub card . It feels criminal that such a match is buried in ROH rubble.

Not really. But all the companies would flood the weekend to try to steal the WM money.

Gotta sell tickets. But Athena seems to want to do this but if I'm TK I'd step in at some point.

You gringos get to watch Nomura vs Abe live for Bloodsport

 

[TheAlbionist]

Supercard will deliver. ROH might not get enough viewers on Honor Club, but they put on SHOWS.
Bloodsport looks live with Shayna rolling through
Spring Break worth a skip through - Effy/Mance will be disgusting, Maki will be Maki.
GCW Vs TJPW might be a sleeper womens card

I don't understand how GCW are affiliated to so many shows all the time, are they eating up all the minnows?

 

[WHolla09]

Wrestlemania going to two days also put a damper on it. When I went to WM 34 in New Orleans in 2018, there were shows at all times from Thursday night to Sunday morning. Now, it looks like the decent shows are on Thursday and Friday, which sucks for the promoters, because I would have to imagine that most people are showing up on Friday. Then you’re competing with NXT on Saturday afternoon. It’ll be hard to put a lot of butts in the seats unless your a big indie company
