Dragonshirt posted:I just signed up for IWTV. What's good on here besides Beyond? Black Label Pro shows are usually pretty good. Chikara have great storytelling. Flying V Fights only have a few shows but they're all good. Limitless have been putting on some real solid shows lately. I've only watched a couple of Freelance shows, but they've been decent. Honestly my main advice is just to find a recent show with some people you like on the bill and watch it. If you liked Kris Statlander on AEW, she headlines the latest Limitless show. If you want a taster of what a bunch of different promotions are up to, during Wrestlemania weekend several of them came together to do a show called the Midwest Mixtape which had a really good card: https://iwtv.live/promotion/PBTV#lP4EoOK7Y2 Lamuella fucked around with this message at 12:33 on Dec 7, 2019 |

shoplifter posted:So I’m watching the GCW shows tonight and tomorrow. What do I need to know, as someone that has never watched GCW, aside from Joey Janela? 1) they get pretty rowdy, doors will probably get involved 2) they also get silly. Especially at the WOMBAT show 3) Tonight's card features both Joey Janela's cousin and Marko Stunt's brother 4) they once had a match where The Invisible Man (face) wrestled his brother Invisible Stan (heel). Bryce Remsburg refereed it and it was joyous nonsense. 5) Effy is wrestling someone for a Dollar General card on a pole

The cutest thing on his recent guest commentary on Beyond was him enthusing at the IWTV live graphic that looks like the old MTV logo. he was just happy that someone did something fun!

The most minor Indie pet peeve possible: I hate how long it takes for shows other than Beyond to go from streaming on IWTV to available on demand. I live in the UK. I usually can't stay up to watch wrestling in the middle of the night on weekdays, which means it's sometimes a week or more before I can watch a show after it aired. And yes, I realise that not long ago it was untold months before I could get a third generation dvd. It's still annoying.

if this ends up with loads of new promotions becoming part of IWTV and better video quality: great If this ends up with current IWTV promotions moving their premium content away from IWTV: less great. (sorry, I tend to get paranoid about such things)

This is going back a couple of years, but does anyone remember a short format wrestling show called Dojo Pro? It's on Amazon Prime if you're interested. Basically it was a seeded ladder-style elimination tournament for a shot at the ROH Television Title, and managed to include a massive range of indie talent just as they were breaking out, as well as some established veterans. Competitors were: Kerry Awful Kevin Ku Gunner Miller Wheeler Yuta Corey Hollis Joey Janela Brandon Cutler James Storm Ricky Starks Aaron Solow Cheeseburger MJF Shane Strickland Jeff Cobb It's a weird but well used format that I think influenced the Beyond Discovery Gauntlet, and had some really fun matches despite a lacklustre crowd. Take a look if you get a chance.

Want to hear a Japanese announcer do a full version of the 3 minute Nick Gage intro that Rich Paladino does. Sadly the match never takes place, before Gage can cause any mayhem Kikutaro just shoots him.

OK, this has probably already been covered, but IWTV is doing a show called The Thursday Night Fix that's basically a wrestling mix tape. JRose (Black Label Pro ring announcer and all round IWTV crew guy) curates and introduces a set of matches that are newly added, might have been missed, or spotlight a fed on the IWTV lineup. Last week's: quote:GCW "Crushed Up" from 06.20.2019 That's a solid lineup of matches from shows I hadn't watched. Nice.

I'm a huge fan of nontraditional wrestling promoters/promotions getting stuff up and running. One of my current favourite promotions is Flying V Fights, because it's a weird Maryland theatre company who just decided they were going to do a wrestling show too.

syzpid posted:Curious, is Warhorse actually good? I'm enjoying his twitter schtick, but haven't seen him wrestle. I like him. Decent enough moveset but what makes him good is that he really lives his character during matches as well. His title defense against Kylie Rae at BLP from this last week was great.

Honestly at this point they might as well call him Workhorse. He won the title in September and he's defended it 24 times so far. https://www.cagematch.net/?id=5&nr=3532&page=5&reign=7

I do love that when they decide to do a bit they just absolutely go for it.

What works about Frank is that we've got an idea what clowns are like in wrestling and he avoids that entirely. He's a massive dirtbag in clown makeup, and that's just fun.

ShallNoiseUpon posted:I think that's what's ultimately calling me to watch GCW. Hopefully should be some glorious violence. I'm often lukewarm about hardcore / deathmatch shows (I've rarely watched a CZW show I've loved, for example), but GCW usually gets the balance just right for me by having contained deathmatch stuff with a fun broader card supporting it.
