  1. Can absolutely see the appeal of PAC back on the indies. He would be a top draw and would probably slot right back until NJPW and become a major player in their US expansion.

    Nia Jax however, I think it's absolutely laughable that she is taking the same stance as Neville here. Shows how full of her own shit she is.

    I was at the most recent set of ICW tapings (which I think is now free on their Facebook) and they have a segment involving a female stripper that was pulled right out of Benny Hill. Wasn't very entertaining either (though a damn sight more fun than the worst promo / segment I have ever witnessed live in Joe Hendry that night).

     

    ICW just feels confused to me. - lot of ideas are like ones that would surfice during the Attitude era and the swearing etc feels just forced. Whilst on the other hand they are also trying to put on matches with 'workrate' to appease other fans. I just don't get what they are supposed to be. 

    Likewise, they employ some very untalented wrestlers in positions well above their station who are kept on out of sympathy Im guessing. 

    In the interest of generating a good discussion on here... would be keen to see your views on who you think is untalented?

  3. Possibly the ICW venue,  Barrowlands in Glasgow which would be much cheaper than the Hydro and still a decent crowd in there, up to 1900 I think. Hydro was very hollow and empty looking because it was so big.

     

    Only other place I could think of in Glasgow would be in London somewhere? one of the Progress or Rev Pro venues?

    Aye, that was the game series i was talking about when i mentioned Wrestlin Mpire. An absurd series of games; fun for what they are but not the second coming of a WWE 2K-beater that it's die hard fans claim it to be. That actually stems quite nicely to my thoughts on the latest ICW developments (spoilered for spoilers)...

     

    They are now running a storyline where Red Lightening has become the majority stakeholder of ICW due to some convoluted storyline involving Mark Dallas taking out a loan to run the Hydro next year blah blah etc. ICW is meant to be the 'alternative' to WWE yet here they are with silly dueling authority figures. Fuck sake, i can't imagine how tiresome that set-up was to stand through.

     

     

    ICW have always done the heel stable thing though, at least this gives red lightning a reason to be on shows other than "he's a good heel"

     

    wouldn't being good at what he does be enough to use him on a show or in a storyline?

     

  5. Red Lightning resigned as GM last night.

     

    Hoping this leads to a ring return.

     

    They have definitely hinted in his "statement" that something big coming.

     

    As for the show on Sunday, absolutely perfect. Womens match was phenomenal, the raw emotion in that building during the main event was something unparalelled in modern wrestling.

  6. What a whinge. I'm sure someone else will take your ticket.

     

    To answer your question form my own experiences. The standing capacity is devised with fire safety etc in mind. It';s likely that there will be clear paths in an out of the arena which will be manned by security.

     

    To be honest I think people are overestimating the size of the venue first of all, and the ring is almost guaranteed to be on a platform.

     

    To be honest that sums up the mentality of some of the people who attend these shows. "Once you're in guys, you're not getting out"...How stupid would that be? See when you were at The Barras, how did you get to the bar then? Same idea.

     

    And your answer is to not support the company and to not go to the show.

  7. Could this be more a case of, TNA have requested that they use it, Madonna's mob have quoted a high price for them to use it, and they have just refused to pay it? Told Grado he can't use it, then he has taken matters into his own hands.

     

    Every song has a price, maybe theirs was too high given how iconic a song it is. TNA don't see the justification for using it. If they dont plan on using Grado regularly then they would pay an absolute bomb to use the song once and basically lose money on the whole Grado saga.

  8. Europa League bet for me tonight...

     

    Spurs and Wolfsburg to win and both teams to score at 14/1

    I actually went for Wolfsburg and Fiorentina

     

    Monchengladbach are playing well domestically just now, however have gone with BTTS in that game.
