It's a shame that this promotion is doomed to just continue the same patterns as the old owners. If it's not talent not being paid it's talent not appearing. If it's not money not being refunded it's money being stolen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEGIT Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Didn't know Danny Rodd was still involved in 1PW. Â Didn't he go AWOL after shafting wrestlers and fans alike??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Pitcos Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Didn't know Danny Rodd was still involved in 1PW. Didn't he go AWOL after shafting wrestlers and fans alike???  I think when the first rumblings of another 1PW resurrection happened, they pretended he wasn't the one running it. Then it changed to "it's still Danny, but he's paying everyone back and he's learned his lesson."  People who belong to the Facebook pages and groups, are they still advertising Nash on there?

Not sure how things usually work "in the biz" but in 2011 sending a cheque to someone half way across the world, presumably in a different currency, seems quite odd when you consider you could make a direct transfer and have the money in the other persons account within a few days.

Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted April 9, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted April 9, 2011 Nash is the most reliable as far as making his towns out of all the Wolfpac. If he's not there, can anyone see X-Pac and Scott Hall showing up? These two miss shows a few miles from there house. What a mess. I'd have a long think about whether Shawn Michaels will be showing up in October as well. The fact nobody is surprised is amazing as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Snow Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Got to love Twitter. If this were 1998 and it were Earthquake and Tatanka being falsely advertised, there would be sad kids waving tomahawks in Doncaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted April 9, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted April 9, 2011 Good answer. To answer the real question, big name stars like Nash, DDP, Hall, X-Pac demand a deposit from the wrestling promoter, which is usually half of their money so if the show goes tits up, they at least have half there payment to know they intend to put the show ahead. Saves him turning up with nothing in his pocket and twiddling his thumbs in the dressing room while there isnt a wrestling ring in the arena yet. Â Its incredible how he has no time to post at the minute. Everytime Billy Gunn had a shit, he was posting an update on how much lavy roll was left in that 1PW thread, because he was doing his junior Bischoff act, and he had all these big names under his watchful eye. And now he's not posting at all? What a smashing bloke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MilesStraume Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Yeah, very nice aint it that he can go spend a ton of money on hotels and drink for a big weekend piss up with some wrestling 'friends' and his company gets fucked and so do the fans. Â But then again, we all saw this coming. Pretty sure we all said it was coming, and even wrestlers on here were warned. But still people believed this was a good idea? senseless.
