And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

Would not be surprised if Mance pops up at AEW tomorrow.

He’s been booked on every show my local indie has had but he’s not booked on tomorrow’s

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.

He put those preview chapters (excerpts?) on TheSmartMarks forum back in the day and I never saw anything more

Although the constant updates in that thread about his interview subjects ("I contacted Raven....he worked 1 XPW show...he told me to give him $500 or go gently caress myself") were funny

EDIT:

quote:

Unfortunately, New Jack won't be contributing, as I had hoped, mainly because he doesn't wish to talk about XPW anymore and has gone on the record about it plenty of times. However, he did issue this earth shattering statement when a contribution was initially requested (note, this is paraphrased):

"gently caress that nigga rear end punk Rob Black. I hope he goes ta jail an gets his dick cut off by one of ma homies an then it gets mailed ta me so I can poo poo on it. Not only he bounce ma checks...he still owes me munnay. If I eva see him in da street I'll run him over, then back up ova him an run that human being nigga down again."

I'm not 100% sure if this stream will be available outside Finland, but here is a link to Wrestleaid in Finland. It started just now, first match Matt Cross vs. finnish Jami Aalto is going on right now. Others appearing today are Tajiri, Ivelisse and Meiko Satomura. Also some people from UK, but i cant remember them right now.

Is it really just him wanting to get his poo poo in? He was booked to lose pick your drat spots. I'm guessing thats the end of his career because thats some ROH Teddy Hart poo poo.

In case anyone else missed it when it came out back at the beginning of the year the Flying V Fights : Sweet Summer Heat 2019 was moved from 7/12 to 7/13. Should be good and chill like the first one which was extremely good and chill

It would have been better if it were last year and it was just Bad Boy vs. Bad Boy. But the Good Guy Tama Tonga (remember to vote for that for gimmick of the year) was worth it.

Question to all. Arizona is a lovely place known for its apathy towards things that aren’t already popular. Who do y’all think that is still able to work indies out there that would be a good draw for my next Zealot show?

laredo kid, el vikingo should have his visa situation fixed soon, brian cage, sami callihan and his people seem to draw out a small sect of indy hardcores, joey ryan, its hard to figure out now because almost anyone who is a potential draw is getting snatched up these days
