The one indie I work for almost had a stable of D&D players that would get crushed every time they went out. They were going to roll 20-sided dice to see what move they’d do next. It probably would have stopped being funny after the first time they did it, but that one time would have gotten a great reaction.

I believe the promoter did the poster - I’ll pass that along when I get there in a bit!

If anyone is in or around Northeast PA, Smash Master Wrasslin is at Susquehanna Brewing in Pittston this Sunday. We’re doing 3/$50 advance tickets with no fees, head to the link on the bottom of the flyer if you’re interested!

It’s going to be Jack Perry, either with the Bucks saying Edge isn’t allowed to forfeit the belt and making him have a (very quick and very very safe) match with Perry or with the Bucks literally handing Perry the belt. The first option is ok at best, the second is awful which means it’ll definitely be the second. Edit - I now see that @Cobra Commander beat me to it!

I’m not going to do a whole list, but Britt Baker vs. Taya Valkyrie, 7/26/23 Dynamite.

And since they announced their time change, I’ll add that 880 Wrestling is kicking off the day at the Ukie Club, running from 4-6pm (ignore that the flyer below says 11pm, there’s some noise ordinances that were discovered after the event was booked). So to recap, at the Ukie Club on April 4: 880 Wrestling - 4-6pm Grand Slam Wrestling - 6-8pm Smash Master Wrasslin’/BYO Wrestling - 8-10pm This is an outdoor event!

More Mania week stuff, this time at the Ukie Club on Franklin Street. The promotions are local to NEPA, but from 6-8pm on 4/4 Grand Slam Wrestling is running an event, and from 8-10 Smash Master Wrasslin’ and BYO Wrestling are teaming up to run an event, featuring the below: Here’s the GSW info, too, just pretend it says 6-8 instead of 7-9

This right here. If one wrestler really hates another, there’s no reason for them to wait 10-12 minutes to charge the ring to mess with them or attack them. Does it suck for the guy that’s not involved in the angle that is getting their match cut short due to the run-in? Sure, but they’re also getting the same payday for less bumps so it can’t be that bad.

A friend of mine texted me about The Chisel a couple weeks ago and about 30 seconds into the first song I listened to I said “oh, they’re like The Business, ok.”

Coming to Mania week in Philly, a two-day Labor of Love/Sean Henderson Presents event at Attic Brewing. Wednesday 4/3 and Thursday 4/4, including: And much more!

I had that immediate thought as well! When the main got going it turned into quite the spectacle. Exceeded expectations for sure.

If you think the fan reaction is bad now, wait until Cody beats Rollins and then Priest immediately cashes in and wins the belt.

Forget Edge going after Christian again - let’s just have weird novelty Edge matches for the rest of his run. He can work Vikingo one week, then Danhausen, then they can bring back Marko Stunt for a week. Get ridiculous with it.

Could you imagine Punk’s reaction if after all this, he still didn’t get to main event Mania because of Rock?

I just said the same to some friends, thinking they can then pivot to Chaos/Callis Family for a bit. International Champ Takeshita or Hobbs? Sign me up.

I really think the devil is Roddy at this point. He constantly tries to convince people that it’s MJF, and the devil didn’t make a single appearance during the time that they were doing the wacky skits at his house if I’m remembering correctly.

I can’t wait for Sammy to come back and be like “just kidding, we love each other lol” and win the belts with Jericho.

I’m guessing the beer bottle is supposed to make people think that Hangman is the devil now. But at the same time, MJF not getting attacked on camera adds to Roddy’s theory that it’s MJF, because it can be said that he wasn’t actually attacked, he just laid down and faked it. Speaking of Roddy, he finally had his Grandpa Joe moment tonight.

I will accept nothing less than Punk as the devil and the Elite as his ninja henchmen, just to watch the world burn. Adam Cole would be alright in the spot too, I guess.

As ridiculous as this sounds, part of me wonders if they’re worried about saying it incorrectly since some people say “Wilkes-Barry”, others “Wilkes-Bear” and others still “Wilkes-Bar”. Even when they showed the Eagles belt, they said they were in Pennsylvania (which I don’t think they had said until then) but never said where.

This was a pretty decent show. Friends that went said the crowd was hot all night, and I’d hope they would be getting a random Sami/Rollins match. It’s always funny that they refuse to say they’re in Wilkes-Barre, only saying the arena name as the location instead.

I think I botched the post and didn’t make it clear - I meant they ran it back with Mark Briscoe, not Kip. Either way, the whole thing was unnecessary. And if their justification for it was to have Keith Lee there to hear what Joe said and make the match for Wednesday, I counter that thought with “it’s Joe vs Keith Lee, it needs no justification”.

I don’t get why Kip needed the Workhorsemen when he’s already in an established trio with Butcher and Blade. Also, running a “hey babyface, find two partners!” angle literally three days after their top babyface had to do it is just lazy writing. I don’t think the live crowd could have cared less about Preston Vance if they actively tried to.

They did tell that story! It’s funny every time you hear it. And yeah, CZW was one of those places where he got to work forever because of his license. Even ROH had to for a while - I’ll always remember going to the MX Reunion preshow because a local guy was in Punk’s training class and that was their debut, and seeing Rebel work on that same preshow. He certainly wasn’t out of place at all. Not even a little.

I remember him coming through Samu’s WXW being billed from Panama City, so I’d imagine he’s always had that as his hometown.
