MonteCarl Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 15 hours ago, clintthecrippler said: I always wished someone could get some sort of wrestling show on TV where every week it takes place from a non-traditional venue. Like if Adult Swim greenlit a wrestling show where one week it took place at a rooftop pool party and the next week it took place at a cracker factory. That's why the first month or so of Shotgun Saturday Night back in the day was pretty amazing. Did a show in a bar and in a subway concourse, among others, before it reverted to pre-tapes before RAW and becoming another forgotten C-Show. But man, those first few weeks were pretty great for the atmosphere alone. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overly Critical Man Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 The American Legion Hall that PWG held its shows in was a dump that was 120 degrees in the summer and about 30 degrees in the winter and I’m pretty sure they were breaking fire codes whenever they held shows. Good times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grilledcheese Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I always enjoyed going to APW Gym Wars shows in the garage in Hayward. It wasn't anything special, just a small space in an industrial area, but goddamn did I get to see a whole ridiculous shitload of talented people come through there.

That's where all the MPW v1 shows were at. One of the places Nova Pro runs is the local JCC that we also partner with at work. It actually is a really nice location to run a show.

bobholly138 Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 2 years ago went to an Elev8 pro show held in a zombie themed paintball arena. Here's the main event. I know about 6 months later the former NWA Battlezone ran a show at the same place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobholly138 Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 Spaced on this.. For 4 or 5 years Powerslam Productions held monthly shows in a community theater. SRO was 110. Thats the last match from Powerslams final show at the community little theater. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick32 Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 Last week, I went to NXT at Toms River North High School in Jersey. It honestly reminded me a bit of the WWF shows they had at the local middle school when I was a kid. Pretty awesome throwback feel. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go2Sleep Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 Kemper Arena, lol. For real, though, there was a local indy that ran out of a warehouse converted to an indoor soccer field. First time I saw wrestling on field turf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Dave Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 The Venue “Come Hell or High Water” was held in sucked a dick, but not a veiny one. It was gross, but not a hepatitis risk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
