I wish they had taken an extra 10 minutes to figure out a name that's not the most generic thing ever, but oh well.
Maybe they will book Elix Skipper vs Arik Royal eventually

i went to one of these wrestling shows and it was... honestly? frickin boring. i wanna see ricky! i want to see his gold chains and respect for the ftw lifestyle
sami callihan is genuinely the anti-draw for me. im a little behind on aaw because 1) i barely barely use highspots anymore and let it lapse by accident for a little while and 2) theres a lot of good indie wrestling options that don't have sami callihan as the main piece in them

sami is def losing to starr or josh and i'm leaning starr

pup is back in town on the 23rd so you can just go to that one instead and still go to gcw!

I wonder if MLW is in trouble

They sold advance tickets for a June 1st event at 2300 Arena during their last show there on February 2nd

But then on February 25th they put out this press release saying the event was rescheduled to December:

https://mlw.com/2019/02/25/mlw-philadelphia-event-rescheduled/

quote:

MLW announced today that its June 1 event at the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia has been rescheduled to December 21. The event will remain a FUSION TV taping and be the first-ever DREAM ARENA card produced by MLW.

“This will be a big holiday event in Philadelphia for fans and the league,” said MLW CEO Court Bauer. “Expect ‘Dream Arena’ to be a stacked card.”

Tickets will go on sale this fall for MLW’s return to Philadelphia. Tickets purchased for June 1st will be honored December 21.

If you purchased a ticket to the originally scheduled June 1st event in Philadelphia and have a question, please contact us using the form below.

MLW will announce the location of our June 1st event and FUSION TV taping later today.

Tingly.


The most I've ever heard about MLW (besides their re-birth being like their original run, where good talent goes to have mediocre matches) is that their guaranteed deals were SUPER low ($150 a shot).

So, if they can't survive on that little cash, I have no idea what they're even doing.

They have a TV deal with BeIN sports so that's probably their primary source of revenue

PTPW sold out their front row seats in less than an hour. Good for them!

I got one, and frankly I'm shocked they sold out so fast because that line-up is not great as far as being a premier level indie show and it usually took weeks for NOVA to sell out the front row. Luckily I was online when they went on sale, I guess.

Sold out all the seats. Standing room only now. Great for them! I only managed to get 2nd/3rd row since I forgot the on-sale was at 9 and I assumed they'd be available for a bit since, yeah, NOVA didn't sell out particularly quickly.

I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.
I think I might be having hallucinations but during the Goldust AEW video I swear I kept hearing really short samples of the AFI song he used to use in his independent days

Just found out CM Punk had 400 dollars in his bank account, and did a run-in at the independent wrestling show to try and build some hype Around him possibly returning in order to try and help him squeeze the most out of an All Elite Wrestling contract. it appears no one cared about the 'mystery', and now There may not be any interest from AEW.
