So what's everybody watching this weekend? The Fite TV packages look tempting but there's a lot of stuff I either can't watch live or just not interested, so I'm probably gonna pick and choose.

Locks

DDT
Kaiju
Spring Break
Orange Cassidy
G1 Supercard

Watching on demand

Takeover
WrestleCon Supershow
MLW

Might watch on demand

Stardom
Penis Party
Bloodsport

Everything else I'm just kinda playing by ear

Truther Vandross
Jun 17, 2008

My plan for live is:

Beyond Uncharted Territory
IWTV Family Reunion
Bloodsport
Wrestlecon Supershow
Impact
Wrestlecon USA vs. The World
Rev Pro
NXT Takeover
Wrestling Revolver/Orange Cassidy Show
G1 Supercard
Spring Break 2
Wrestlemania

Somewhere in the gaps I'm going to try to watch Stardom, Spring Break 1 and the Penis Party show.

Can you start FITE events at the beginning when they are still going on, or do you have to wait until after they are finished? If I can't start live a couple of hours in I may have to wait until Saturday to watch DDT due to work.

Do they archive shows you can buy on demand? Because that's probably the only way I can watch both Spring Break Part 1 and Penis Party, which are going head-to-head.

They do, so you can buy safely.

I realized I could watch the first 90+ minutes of DDT before switching over to Drag Race, so I'll probably do that. I'll also have to watch Spring Break before NXT.

You get the VOD archive of that show as long as FITE is a thing IIRC, that's not an issue

My current mood is "don't buy Family Reunion or U.S. vs. The World tickets until the last minute because I simultaneously really love both cards on paper but would also kind of like a morning/early afternoon without wrestling."

That's ISW and not IWS but I was there for that whole story arc.

Beef's dad's butthole is currently safe. The 72 hour proviso of GT getting Beef's dad's butthole is long done.

Although I do wonder where the Beef Father Fucker Championship belt ended up.

Yes. Pro wrestling.

3 posts so far from NJPW, including what's going to be on sale at the Matsuri event.

Belt’s in Texas on the mantle of a rather wealthy Giant Tiger fan. Wrestling, indeed.

Anyone from folks regional Indies worth looking out for this weekend? Jacob Fatu is my local indie's champion and has already gotten some national recognition after appearing in GCW and MLW.

Jake Atlas is another person to keep an eye on, he has a ton of potential and is a rising star in the California indie scene.

There's a lot of guys who work primarily AIW and not many other places, and a lot of them are pretty good. I'll just list em.
Matthew Justice is the current AIW Intense champion, and goes insane in-ring any time you let him. He's on the AIW show wrestling PB Smooth (below), Tim Donst, and Tom Lawlor and also on Blackcraft wresting Gangrel.
PB Smooth is the current AIW Absolute champion, he's an enormous athletic man who has the potential to be a huge star if he gets a spot on a big show ever. He's a lot newer to wrestling than the other guys in this match, but I think is on his way to big things.
The Production is a stable with excellent character work that's starting to break out of just Cleveland. Their gimmick is some sort of demonic film production crew, and currently consists of Derek Direction (the director), Eddy Only (the stagehand), and Danhausen (the writer). Frankie Flynn, the lead, is currently super sick or hurt or something and hasn't been around. They're on the AIW show, and at least one is at Blackcraft as well.
The Philly Marino Experience is another great tag team, made up of Philly Collins and Marino Tenaglia. They come out to a Phil Collins song, they're some of the most consistently over people on any AIW show, and both clearly care a lot about wrestling well as a tag team. Probably my favorites out of this list.
Tre LaMar is an insane high-flyer type. His regular partner, Chase Oliver, is hurt right now but they do a ridiculous suicide dive/golden triangle moonsault move where they cross paths in midair, to give you an idea of his style. He's in the Black Label Pro tag championship match.
I think lastly is Dominic Garrini. He's probably the most well known guy out of AIW right now, and works a much more ground based style than anyone else on my list. He's also basically the head trainer at the AIW school right now, so a lot of the younger guys have been at least partially trained by him now that Johnny Gargano's not around. He's working Bloodsport, the AIW show, the IWTV Family Reunion, and Black Label Pro. As an honorable mention, his AIW opponent's manager Maserati Wes Barkley probably has a decent shot at Stokely Hathaway's old role on the indies if he can get his name out there, he's fantastic. Wes wrestles too, but I think he's a much better talker than wrestler.

That's everyone I can think of. AIW doesn't have the same supershow status that a lot of shows this weekend are doing, but they've been moving to a role where they can develop and show off new or underexposed talent and hopefully launch some new stars' careers. If you're not watching anything else at 11 PM tomorrow, it's almost certainly going to be a show worth checking out.
