The Reverend Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 Considering most of the news about this has been put out today, I think filling the Motorpoint in less than a month seems a tad bit ambitious. All very strange: https://wrestlingnews.co/other/aops-new-promotion-wrestling-entertainment-series-wes-debuts-june-4-at-motorpoint-arena-in-nottingham-england-will-stream-live-on-fite-tv/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merzbow Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 No one would sign them after WWE let them go so they decide to make their own promotion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infinity Land Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 One of the stranger things i've seen pop up in a while. Reminds me of 5* Wrestling running arenas with no real thought or money behind it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidB6937 Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 Why are they launching something in Nottingham of all places? What's the link? Feels pretty random. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infinity Land Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 Does seem random. The Arena doesn't seem to have much on this summer on their events page. Maybe they were looking around for an arena to make a splash and they got a really good rate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There needs to have been investment in the marketing to get people into the building, and I doubt there's much effort put it the production to get people to keep watching it.

TildeGuy~! Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 Wasn’t there a Nottingham based promotion just before the pandemic started? They were constantly booking Japanese imports, don’t remember the name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith Houchen Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 Hopefully this is the Freddie Prinze Jr promotion! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members air_raid Posted May 14, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted May 14, 2022 The future of “sports entertainment?” Not sure running with a Vinceism is a great way to hook Indy fans. Either way, looking forward to seeing who some of the “biggest names in professional wrestling” are. Rikishi vs Crimson main event, hopefully.

Ro_y Disco Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 Their two Instagram posts have comments from Nia Jax and Mojo Rawley. Flies to shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WyattSheepMask Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 Less than a month out and no names included in your press release other than the guys running the show. It’s all very Waynestock at the moment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
