Instantly brought back memories of summerslam 98 in msg where a dude had a “Mitsubishi gallant sucks” sign up the whole show. My mom had a gallant so I couldn’t stop looking at it like wth?

I’m gonna see him for the first time in south San Francisco on Friday. My first show in 20 months. Karl fredericks on the card too. Can’t wait!

The silver and Reynolds one was great. “What’s your favorite season?” “Salt.” It’s always best when she interviews idiots or weirdos. Best dynamic. She is funny too.

Hoodslam return to Oakland going to be a day 1 sellout.

At some point she won’t be. I haven’t seen any indication when that will be, but who knows.

I subscribed to stardom world after all the hype about utami/syuri. Blown away by the match. Chose a starting point of the budokan hall 10th anniversary show to catch up and have been watching everything since. Just really great, fun stuff. All the matches are good. Lots of personality and charisma, they put subtitles on the promos so you can follow. Really enjoying it. If they do a show in LA I will be very excited to travel down from the Bay Area. Edit: Also the way they light the ring and broadcast the shows is as good or better than any of the big boys. That upshot from under the bottom rope makes the wrestlers look awesome.

They planned to do an LA show in 2020, I pray they bring this match here in the not too distant future.

They keep putting out more batches of the previous series and rereleased series 1 as 1b with just a tiny logo on the packaging. I’d only get them if you wanted them. I could’ve sold Brandi for $200 dammit.

Is this like jungle boy and Anna? Awesome if so (or not, hope I’m not reading too much but I mean). Need more Keiko and the sweepers.

I follow him on Twitter, he’s very liberal. He’s was doing a bit and I think it’s pretty funny.

I named our cat warrior at the time so that should tell you. It was around wrestlemania 4 I think when I really got into it. I remember asking my friends about nwa and I think I watched it when I saw it on tv, but I was definitely a wwf kid. I read the apter mags so I was fully aware of the world outside wwf though. I remember going to a house show in Portland Maine, must’ve been in 88. I also used to clip out the newspaper ads for house shows because they were like mini wrestling posters.

Brand new 5k capacity venue at LA Coliseum. Looks cool. I bet with all the strong talent and them putting it on fite it will be less a collection of tag matches and more singles matches with a little bit of weight to them.

I didn’t see her segment yet but I believe Shahid Khan owns the hotel.

Honestly seems like more of a statement of what the priorities are. Smackdown > Ppv

Like two years ago I tweeted Cody a photo of the tennis stadium in Indian Wells (Southern California). I should get a finders fee dammit (it’s gonna look great on tv and a tennis stadium is the perfect venue for wrestling. It’s like a sumo hall stadium.)

It’s crazy, the field sits on a rolling tray that is outside on non game days because it’s needs full sunlight to grow, and then they just roll it in on game days. That also allows them to do stuff like Summerslam and major concerts without destroying the field like at Levi’s stadium. A tour of the stadium costs $60, supposedly summerslam tickets start at $25.

Lol. Seriously wrestlers could teach basketball players when they're free falling after getting hit during a dunk. A one day pro wrestling camp for nba players, taking flat back bumps all day could honestly be a useful outside the box training session. Of course flopping incidents would increase 900%.

Oh wow, I was expecting 100%. If that’s the case, expected 60k capacity would be 30-36k, in that case it will probably sell out. I was counting on easy tickets in the final week.

Other California indies should be right behind. I doubt they’re running unless it’s at 100% capacity. Back at the start of the pandemic Markus Mac and Gabe Ramirez said it would be extremely long before they could run shows because limited capacity wouldn’t work financially for them. Guess we’re getting close to normal.

I’ll echo a bunch and go for my more list: Thunder Rosa Santana & Ortiz Serena Deeb Will Hobbs Jungle Boy Tay Conti

At this point I’m probably 60/40 on going. Got plenty of time to think about it and see what else pops up as well.

First company to officially bite for summerslam weekend, right?

That was gonna happen anywhere they did the show. The second double or nothing was only at about 9k before it was cancelled due to the pandemic.
