scott_2k16 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Hope the show is a success  Got hurt from so many different 1pw promoters!  And before anyone says anything I was there through a lot of the original shows, paying a fortune to sit front row!

ukfan11 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Which room are you in at the Leadmill? Sonic boom starts at 11 and when i used to DJ there they needed time to transfer from gig to club night, bearing in mind you will have a ring to take down then a 10 finish might be optimistic if you are having the ring on the dancefloor area (i assume the stage is too low as the lights are quite far down on it.) Â Not having a go at you directly, but why does it matter to you? Some people on the net (not directed at you specifically) seem to just want to point out problems that don't even effect them just to cause trouble. I mean on facebook there's someone asking questions along the lines of "Do they have permission to use images/photos." See it a lot on forums and not just wrestling ones really.

AshC Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 I mean on facebook there's someone asking questions along the lines of "Do they have permission to use images/photos." Â This is a fair question, I know at least one great photographer who's had their photos used by other promotions without being paid for them.

king_dezeeuw06 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 There's a lot of water under the bridge with the various people assosiated with 1PW, but if these guys are going to bring in good names and put on good shows, I wont cut off my nose to spite my face by ruling out going or completely write them off before anything has happened. Â I imagine that a lot of people will be very cautious about paying for tickets well in advance (understandably so), but the roster for the show looks very good and if the matches they annouce look interesting I pay on the day and give it a go.

Â A fair question yes but it doesn't effect them directly, if it was the photographer himself asking the question then I'd understand, but I'd presume he do it in private messages/contact rather posting a public comment. Â I'd say its a fair question given the circumstances. I don't think even Gauntley would argue his past reputation shows that when things start to get tough he runs for cover leaving anyone who's paid money chasing what they're owed. If he was to start getting legal threats or any other type of hassle I wouldn't be surprised to see him crawl back under his rock to hide, canceling shows and ignoring messages again. I'm probably putting more thought into it than whoever asked the question, they're probably just trolling but still these are the type of things that'd bother me if I was handing over cash to him where normally it wouldn't. Â Oh and when Steven reads this, think for a moment. Rather than get defensive just accept your past has made you very untrustworthy. Arguing that fact wont help change that. Shutting up and getting on with things as professionally as possible is the only way to prove us doubters wrong. I hope you do it because another successful company with a strong reputation can only be good for the UK, another high profile fuck up (and it will be, people are watching you waiting for it right now) will just undo all the hard work the good promoters are doing.

The Cum Doctor Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 I don't normally wish ill on a promoter, but Gauntley deserves nothing but grief. I hope this promotion suffers a slow and painful death and this utter dickhead just fucks off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hitman89762000 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Wont happen... It'll go 1-2 shows without a hitch people will believe hes changed and then it'll happen again.. I mean when talent hes slagged off in blogs are taking bookings off him you just know it'll end in tears. Â If you really need to see his shows buy a ticket on the day.. If you really need to work his shows see a shrink cos your fucking nuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Lion_of_the_Midlands Posted March 7, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted March 7, 2013 The capacity of britwres to keep eating its young is astounding. After 87 incarnations of 1PW and countless people not just burned but sent on fire and forced drink petrol they come back again and the same dogs return to their vomit once again. You get what you fucking deserve if you put even the smallest amount of trust or faith into this. I am sure that after another 95 incarnations of this you will all be in the same position again. You get what you deserve and you make me sick. Â I find myself agreeing with hitman numbers, that is not a phrase that comes easy I can tell you.

If you really need to work his shows see a shrink cos your fucking nuts. Â Â Â Agree with both of these people. When this all goes tits up, And it will do. maybe not this show maybe not the next but it is going to happen A lot of people will complain about being owed this and that, well guess what the answer is simple. just don't go. if people just don't go then he will stop running shows, and if people don't buy into his next promotion down the line then maybe he will fuck off for good. Â It's obvious the wrestlers are not gonna want to miss a booking as they need any money they can get, and if they didnt get booked it would just be another wrestler who would be willing to take the booking. it is a shame though that they are willing to go back to a name that has such a dire reputation to anyone on here, which might not be a lot of people in the scheme of things but it is at least some of the potential audience, and more importantly some of the audience that are willing to travel from show A to show B in different towns. Â The hard work of several companies has helped to erase the sour taste that gauntley has left in peoples mouths for the last 7 years, it's gonna be a shame when this happens again and Sheffield, a good potential city for big shows is left feeling sour over a gauntley burning again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
