Aahh, memories... The standard for indy workers is so much incredibly higher now. Wrestling was so popular back then that every goof with a couple bucks was inspired to become a promoter & start a fed and put on a show, and innumerable sub-normals were inspired to believe that their love of wrestling was a substitution for dedication, athleticism, talent, intelligence and/or study, thusly stepping into the ring in county fairs, VA halls and armories (and backyards) everywhere. I loved it (in hindsight). - RAF 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolfan in NYC Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 Yeah, I think I mistook Christian York for Christian Cage, or maybe I thought Adam Pearce wrestled in the E at one point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to run one, but not quite that much, then no, you can't. @RIPPA's roof, RIPPA's rules. 1 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was rumors some years ago he was a guest coach, but unfortunately he then said it wasn't true. Would love to see someone walk out to Teenage Dirtbag in NXT.

I think they could have made a bigger impact if they were presented as dangerous brawlers on the ring in the vein of the sheepherders. a couple of greasers should be punching and kicking people bloody sometimes. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AxB Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 You do realise the FBI monitor the internet, right? Because fed could easily mean federal agent, rather than wrestling federation. And it could be seen as you're panhandling for funds to bribe a law enforcement officer there. Also, airfare to Japan, hotel, tickets to a show and however you organise a sponsored meal with a wrestler can't come to much than ten thousand at most, right? You could be having dinner with Hana next week if you set your mind to it. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
