Web Conn Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 That was the heat on the Voice of Wrestling podcast. The hosts were talking about the weak Wrestlemania weekend shows which I don’t agree with but they went after AIW’s card cuz it’s not a “Wrestlemania Weekend” Card. AIW promoter, John Thorne said on this week’s Card Is Going To Change that he doesn’t want to put on a polished work rate wrestling show he wants to put on a gritty indie show like they do in Cleveland.

That's oddly refreshing and I don't blame him for going this route. If anything with all the other stuff going down if it's a great show this could help his stand out a bit more. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacey Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 That's weird. It's an AIW branded show after all, and so many others are doing super indy stuff.........it's tough being a promoter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a feeling we will be needing a coat for the main event Sunday night This is a "good" weather report by NY in April standards. All the Friday and Saturday shows are indoors. 60 degrees for Mania is about the best I could hope for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 Fair warning: I have no idea how good of seats you have, but 60 on the ground so feel like 40 in the upper deck. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm in section 143 which appears to be close to the ground but I've never been to MetLife so I'm not entirely sure.

Edwin Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 Kingston rules. Another indy legend and I hope it isn't his last WM weekend and if it is, then I hope he gets a job as job as a trainer and performer at the PC and NXT similar to Hero's because if there's one dude that deserves, it's him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Web Conn Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 He's gonna make a mint on that photo opp. I've seen Joey Ryan live and all anyone wanted to see is the penis spot. Best part of all of this is that is pisses Jim Cornette off that a guy got his dick over. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to know what constitutes proof and who is making the decision on that. Jesus wept. I read that and imagined Immortan Joe sitting in a room with a ring in it, sucking on a Diet Coke, holding auditions for wrestlers. No Mexicans allowed, of course.

Which is odd since we booked them before anyone & actually helped MLW out by agreeing to put them on early Thursday & late Friday so they could do both events each day. No point being dicks and depriving wrestlers of paydays if there's an easy work around. But the point stands - don't be late! Starting off HOT! Hope everyone has a good time this weekend, come say hi if you see me at the Hilton! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, that's all he's ever had properly going for him aside from being a PWG founding member. His work before that gimmick was rough to sit through. Not saying I like this gimmick as I don't find it funny or entertaining, but he's been able to at least create a following with it.

madsplash Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Joey started that spot when he was in Japan for DDT. So apparently he was doing something right beforehand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
