cobystag Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 How can you say you're "bringing it back" when the trailer implied that it disappeared from the mainstream. Is there any viable options of getting this televised? Â And will this draw any better than All Star's best shows, showing if you do it for free and get a thousand people..... All Star charge and get that amount too. What are you bringing back again? Â EDIT: I presume it will be an early Sunday afternoon show at least seen as they have a gig that night. Â http://www.coronettheatre.co.uk/events/lets-go-crazy-2/ Â And venue capacity at most is 2800 which is a decent sized venue. Take off space for the ring and chairs and all that so I hope you get to fill the place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunny Posted February 22, 2012 Author Share Posted February 22, 2012 Just to make clear while NGW is going to be there on the day, I'm not involved in any organising of it so can't answer too many questions. I'm just posting it on here as another way to help a great cause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kincaid Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Shouldn't they be charging more than a pound entry for this if it's helping Great Ormond Street? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Big Benny HG Posted February 22, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted February 22, 2012 I'll probably pop along to this one (or at least some of it) seeing as though I'm likely to be in London anyway following IPW:UK's 'Battle Royale' the previous night.... and it's only a quid. Â I've not bothered with any of the previous FWA expo/BritWresFest stuff, but an early start as suggested would mean I would still be able to get home that same night for 'Mania, rather than another night in a hotel. Â Also, it doesn't appear to mention it above, but I understand that there are plans to broadcast this entire event live over the internet. Â The whole thing isn't a bad idea: the free entry deal should hopefully allow them to get down some top quality footage in front of a fairly big crowd, with fancy screens, entrances and lights, then use that as a bit of a showcase/demo tape for "British Wrestling" for shopping around to various TV networks. Has to be better than showing them a tiny ring in a leisure centre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members SiMania Posted February 23, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted February 23, 2012 Is it seriously called the BritWres Fest? That's a horrible name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJS269 Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Why is it BritWres Fest when by the looks of it it is an all English show? Are there any welsh, northern irish or scottish companies or wrestlers involved? Â Hope people donate, its a good cause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darepool Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Agree with the above poster. Scottish Wrestling just now is ultra hot attendance wise. Can't speak about any irish or welsh shows however. Any funding for charity gets my thumbs up however. Â Â Surely the 'biggest british show ever' wouldn't have free attendance though?

The Dart Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 My main gripe is that it lists the top promotions in the UK as being part of it..one of them being Progress Wrestling, who haven't even run thir first show yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point. It does have a very good roster though despite the non inclusion of some other companies talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
