The Z Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 I highly approve of this! That's a meeting of the PROGRESS and wXw owners in case you don't know. Now please do some joint shows, preferably in a city near me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritenaut 32 Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 FYI for people in the US wanting to check out PROGRESS: Highspots has begun carrying PROGRESS shows. They started stocking Chapters 27, 28, & 29 this week. Hopefully, they get the older shows too. Or you could just subscribe to PROGRESS' streaming service, which is what i do (and is probably the better deal). Either way, I'm all for anything that gets PROGRESS more attention.

StretchMediatedHypertrophy Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 A bit random, but my Mother was at a wedding the other day. It turned out that one of the bridesmaids was one Zoe Lucas: Her boyfriend, Rev:Pro regular James Castle, was also at the wedding, disappearing and reappearing due to main-eventing against Bram at the Portsmouth Guildhall show. But the point is that my Mother was actually YouTubing UK wrestling, which is very much something that I thought would never ever happen. Strange days....... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dewar Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 ICW's first television show aired on the Fight Network in Canada this week. How long has the show been airing across the pond? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lazlo Woodbine Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 It doesn't air at all in the UK, they used to have a show on some obscure satellite channel a few years back. That's actually when I first saw them, some guy getting suplexed through an ironing board is all I really remember. Seemingly they're getting good ratings in Italy though.

Dewar Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Well damn. Main event was Chris Renfrew vs DCT in a "Scottish World of Sport" match, which meant they each (and the random ref) had to do a shot of Jack Daniels after every round. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lazlo Woodbine Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 I always loved that they had a wrestler called D.C. Thomson, such a stupid little thing. Is he still doing the "International sex hero" bit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking of obscure channels, has anyone ever heard of the FightBox HD channel? I only know of it, because a German promotion announced last week that they struck a deal with that network. Apparently the channel is available in the US, the UK and many other countries. According to their website they also show NJPW, ROH, Osaka Pro and Oz Academy, so it's weird that I've never heard of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd never heard of it either, but looking at it, it seems it's no longer on the channel list for the UK handler, which is still operating in liquidation. The provider in Germany and Sweden - Magine - looks to be a better established outfit though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jiji Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 I basically had the Vince lap dance gif reaction looking down that card. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultimo Necro Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 Someone order this for Vader to watch Ospreay v Bailey. Then film his head exploding in a fit of confusion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Z Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 At least he would still get to see Damo vs. Walter before his head exploded (depending on the card order). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spritenaut 32 Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 I'm underwhelmed..... Fortunately, I'm still ridiculously excited that Rev Pro is giving us Shibata vs. ZSJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Z Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 I just watched the Angle vs. Sabre Jr. show and it was as awesome as expected. Pretty much every match delivered. Ospreay vs. Bailey is yet another MOTYC for Ospreay. I'm not usually amongst the people, who complain about crowds and the crowd for this show was mostly great, but I have a small request for British audiences in general: Could you please finally stop doing that thing where you count one step ahead of the referee during countouts? I'm sure this used to be funny once upon a time, but it's really become super annoying. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Harms Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 I hope he does because this is down my ends and I'd like to take my buddy (who's a big Vader mark from the 90s). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
