Fwiw in Japan all the smaller stuff is going ahead. Going to a Sendai Girls show on Sunday and all that's changed is they're asking people to wash their hands and wear masks and don't cough on people

Surprised the WWE talent hasn't been pulled yet like wxw just had, but then again I guess maybe WWE doesn't give a gently caress about NXT UK just like everyone else in the world.

And if you weren't here you won't even get to see his final promo! https://twitter.com/Jeszbort/status/1236650985281540097?s=19 wXw has been kind of disappointing me lately (Kelly being reduced to a prop to give Alexander James sexism heat is the grossest example), but this just makes me mad.

Tyler has been pulled from loads of shows, I don't think they've defended the belts as a unit since they won them a year ago. It's a bit of a loving joke to bre honest. Edit: State broadcaster RTE's health correspondent has said the Parade will probably be cancelled as the mood has changed. Not looking great for Scrapper.

So the winner of Carat was pretty unexpected! Having Cara Noir win over Mike Bayley is an interesting and weird choice; I like Cara a lot, but Bailey has much more history with the company. Cara vs Bobby Gunn's would be an interesting match, but not one that i could see Cara winning, whereas Bailey has history with Bobby. Von Linus posted:
Well gently caress.

Vertigo Ambrosia posted:So the winner of Carat was pretty unexpected! Cara is Progress champion, WXW and Progress are coopted by WWE, Bailey is a free agent. So... Yeah, the Parade has been cancelled, definitely. They imght go with either advising people not to go to large gatherings, or setting a limit of 5k on gatherings, initially.

Yeah, I feel really bad for all the indie companies and wrestlers losing out right now. WWE (and even NJPW and AEW) can eat a bad month, but a small company cancelling a show - especially a big show - either screws them, their talent, or usually both.

the Ott gofundme is nearly up to 6 grand, I think that'll go up a bit once people get their refunds. Let us pray anyway. Joe is blown away by the whole thing, it's mad people are pulling together for OTT like this.

Riptide temporarily made Combat Panto available for free on their Pivotshare https://riptidewrestling.pivotshare.com/ so I finally just watched that. Random thoughts: I love Sugar Dunkerton and TK Cooper Grinchy McKenzie ruled Spike Trivet's a great lovely heel I think there were only two matches on the card I didn't care for, and 1) I'm glad it was only that little but 2) I'm mad one of them was the one with Anti-Fun Police :[ They were like the only team I was actually familiar with before I started watching the company The main event ruled; David Starr vs Jordon Breaks for #1 contendership to Trivet's title

Good Torch writeup on PROGRESS https://www.pwtorch.com/site/2020/0...e-events-pause/quote:But as has been shown so many times during this pandemic, just because people and companies can ask or access help, doesn’t mean they should. And when you look at Progress’s finances, they are far from being the scrappy underdog they claim to be. quote:Obviously one does not begrudge anyone making a living, but this does raise several questions. One has to wonder how Progress has made so much money, and whether their relationship WWE is behind the significant increase.
