GodzillaPerez Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 There are 3 really good companies in Ontario. Smash from Toronto. Alpha-1 from Hamilton and C4 from Ottawa. All 3 use a good mix of local guys and indy "names". Plus Josh Alexander is returning from a neck injury thought to be career ending and he'll hopefully return to how good he was before he retired.

Godfrey Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 How are those Smash shows? I've always wanted to go but they're quite a trek from my place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GodzillaPerez Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Smash shows are a lot of fun. They have a great roster of talented local guys and a couple indy names and they use them well. They have a strong emphasis on women's wrestling, even having Cherry Bomb vs Courtney Rush main event their last show. I will admit their last show was a little disappointing with the big names being Bull James and the guitarist from "Every Time I Die" but there were still entertaining Psycho Mike Rollins vs Frankie the Mobster and Façade vs Player Dos matches along with the main. May 29th has Johnny Gargano vs Eric Young and a 10 man tournament with Sushi from All Japan announced so far. They're a good group and their shows are worth checking out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zev Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Courtney Rush and Cherry Bomb are having a great feud. I think it'll wind up being measured in years rather than months in terms of longevity. SMASH's youtube channel's done great work in showcasing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godfrey Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Looks fun. I'll definitely check it out. For my part, Superkick'd may be a dumb name but it is always a fun show. And where else are you going to see the likes of EC3 praise the talent of Space Monkey? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GodzillaPerez Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 I forgot about Superkick'd. I love the atmosphere of their shows. Also May 15th in Toronto is a show called "Mayhem in Greektown" with Space Monkey vs Mike Bailey. Can't wait for that one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paintedbynumbers Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 I wasn't sure where to post this but I have been a huge fan of the recent trend of on demand wrestling channels. The ones I currently use in addition to WWE Network are CZWstudios, aawondemand, and https://www.highspotswrestlingnetwork.com/ The content on highspots channel is incredible and it seems they add at least 25-30 shows/shoots a week. Right now they have over 100 pwg shows, tons of wxw, rev pro, progress, shoots, NEW, IWA-MS, CZW, ECW, FIP, Wrestlecons, and more. Does anybody else know of any similar on demand channels that can be viewed on the roku? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eastcoast_joe Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Hopefully, I'm not doing something wrong out of the gate I've been at CRZ's board forever and am a regular at Northeast Wrestling events which isn't really a blip on the radar, and I'm sure you don't care one way or the other, but this is happening and I'm pretty fired up about to have a front row seat. It should be a good time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JYD had one or two daughters and that was it. After years of using the name a year ago people started calling him out on it. So sometimes now he claims that his dad is JYD and his mom was a ringrat. Ended up going to the show and filming every match. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCDbl4yAcFKen0gh_81PWFkA It was 5 matches. And decent. But ended up with a stack of WCW VHS. Including a bunch of 2000 PPVs.Then for helping one guy sell his gimmicks I got a copy of that Tim Hornbaker NWA book. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't "guy working a gimmick where he claims to be the illegitimate son of another wrestler" a staple of just about every low budget indy out there?
