I think it originally stood for "all American wrestling" but now it's like KFC or wwe where the acronym isn't supposed to mean anything anymore.

All Alite Wrestling

The best part of Spring Break last year was the death match.

Would have been better had they shown the finish

A: Chris Dickinson
B: The general mix of elements of the modern indies is best shown through Joey Janela's Spring Break, which is currently on IWTV. You have the early 2000s workrate style match in Keith Lee/Lio Rush, the meta nostalgia booking style in Janela/Janetty, the worked shoot wave in Riddle/Severn, classic deathmatch wrestling in Tremont/Kingston, and post-death of Chikara comedy wrestling in the Clusterfuck. All of those are still around to some degree, but some promotions have more of certain elements than others.

i have heard multiple places about the return of shoot style wrestling

besides bloodsport where are these matches

i'm not being sarcastic i legitimately want to know
