Seeing people saying that they'd like to see a whole weekly show with matches like Undertaker vs AJ Styles at
#WrestleMania
. There was one, it was called Lucha Underground.
A drunk fan at Bumps and Brewses assaulted a girl,
@BADDUDEtito
sees it during his match, takes care of the fan mid match. Police were later called, apparently the fan tried to fight the police as well.
Kris Statlander was booked for the Bar Wrestling New Years day show prior to signing with AEW. From what I'm told Bar was completely OK with her missing their show but Kris wanted to keep her word. Says a lot about her as a person. Credit to AEW for putting wrestlers first too.
@AEWrestling
Rather than force Kris to choose between her title shot or keeping her word on a commitment she made before signing here, we’re allowing her to do both. The champion Riho will defend vs.

There are so many carnies and scam artists involved in pro-wrestling but imagine thinking some tampon spot on a 21+ no-ring show is what is ruining wrestling.
AEW announced
@ringofhonor
Supercard of Honor is going to take place on March 31 in Los Angeles during Wrestlemania week.
First ROH show in SoCal since 2011.
There used to be a time when no major independent wrestling promotion would dare run against a WWE PPV, but now the fanbases have split enough where a promotion like PWG sold out in minutes despite Extreme Rules happening.
Just a reminder that the McMahons are Trump's biggest donors and Vince, Stephanie, and HHH have all been silent on what's going on. Jaxson Ryker is probably getting a raise though.
If you are a top independent wrestler in 2021, why would you even consider taking an NXT contract at this point unless they significantly raise the money? You are just as likely to get stuck in a lease in Florida with no job as you are of making it there.
Sorry to hear about the passing of SoCal Hall of Famer "Judo" Gene LeBell. What an incredible man and life. He was the inspiration for Brad Pitt's Cliff Booth in Once Upon A Time in Hollywood, but I'm sure Lebell was tougher than the character. RIP.
Still working to confirm details, but sad to report that former Mach 1 promoter and PWG (among others) ring announcer Jon Ian has died.
I hope to have a story up on him later tonight. All I can say now is he was a great guy and the scene was better for him being a part of it.

Hey

@MarriottBonvoy
I'm a Titanium Elite member with 32 nights already this year. Do the right thing here or I'll be moving all my business to Hilton. I know I'm a small drop in the bucket but screwing people when the government has mandated no gatherings is a bad look
It's crazy to think that if
@luchasaurus
hadn't been hurt none of the outrage over
@MarkoStunt
would be going on.
I guess to some people a wrestling dinosaur is more realistic than a smaller human in a match.

@CodyRhodes
just signed the whole
@BarWrestling
audience to
#AEW
then
@TheBrandiRhodes
made him fire everyone. Due to a clause in the contract no one in the crowd is allowed to cheer at other shows for 90 days.
AEW placed a hold on the Toyota Arena in Ontario, CA in May. A hold doesn't mean that anything is set in stone, but it does show at least one Southern California venue they are looking at..

hits a Psycho Driver and gets the pin in 17:06. Calls Super Dragon a pussy afterwards and says he wants a shot at the PWG Championship.

The return announcement today is such great news. Wrestling just hasn't been the same without him. One of the greatest to ever step in the ring for sure.
Glad to see Roderick Strong back in the independents at Prestige.
@JoeyRyanOnline
I know for a fact that people have opted out of taking the dick flip and no one has ever said that you tried to talk them into it or force it. A mutually agreed on spot in scripted entertainment and sexual assault are not the same thing. It's sad you even have to defend it.
Imagine if Twitter was around when movies started using sound and silent film stars could post about how the people who needed "to talk" aren't real actors.
Strangler Lewis would have probably hated Ric Flair.
Things change. The world evolves.
Sad to hear the news of Rocky Johnson passing away. In 1969 within his first month in Los Angeles he held 3 titles at the same time, the Americas heavyweight, the Americas tag (with Earl Maynard), & the Beat the Champ TV title. He also won the 1st annual LA 22-man battle royal

@mashaslamovich
wins in 14:14. Great match. Money being thrown in the ring. I know there's not a lot of competition, but easily the best women's match in PWG history.
