So, you're literally throwing indie wrestling in the bin?!?

front row already sold out apparently. so far announced are:
- Angelus Layne vs Brittany Blake tag match with partners of their choosing - Gunner Miller vs Tim Donst - Fred Yehi vs Jordynne Grace - DJZ vs Sonjay Dutt
Other announced talent: Logan Easton Laroux, Arik Royal, Faye Jackson, The Ugly Ducklings, Beau Crockett, Bobby Shields
Should be a really fun show. Lots of anticipation among the regulars as to how they'll follow up their biggest success to date in Nova Project 3. I'm expecting a few new angles to get kicked off here.

"The WWNLive Experience will come to you on Wrestlemania weekend in New Orleans. The WWNLive Experience will be at the Pontchartrain Civic & Convention Center, which is a first class facility. We have added several events. The schedule now has:
Thursday, April 5th: EVOLVE at 8pm TBD at 11:55pm
Friday, April 6th PROGRESS at Noon EVOLVE at 4pm WWN Supershow at 8pm GCW Presents Joey Janela Spring Break II at 11:55pm
Saturday, April 7th PROGRESS at Noon TBD at 4pm TBD at 8pm TBD at 11:55pm
Ticket and more show info will be released soon."
Three straight nights of wrestling at 11:55PM seems like complete overkill, but I guess that's what they usually done.
Who knows if I go to any of these shows. Will attend incognito with shades and a fake beard if I do.

House of Hardcore being on Twitch is a hoot. Wish they would just make it an episodic weekly show versus streaming events live. I'm all about serial content.

Very nice of WWN to give us a public viewing of their funeral Wrestlemania weekend. Can't wait for the Janela show. It was the most fun out of all the shows I attended last year.

Are we counting the NWA as an indie for now until we see what they do in 2018? I mean there's money behind it. I honestly just wanted an excuse to talk about this Tim Storm promo from this week's CWFH. www.youtube.com/watch?v=GAeUBefj7I4It's like the antithesis of the 1994 Shane Douglas promo after Shane wins the NWA Title. I loved it. Had me shaking a little bit, to be honest. Tim Storm seems like the dad you always wanted. A throwback to a different era. Very tanned. Probably smokes a pack a day. Doesn't go to the gym at all but does hindu squats in his living room while waiting for the wife to bring him some microwaved meatloaf and two single squeeze packs of mayo. I'm hyped.

So what do we think those TBDs for WWN are? I would say Style Battle and FIP and the like but without FloSlam are those even gonna really exist?

Tim Storm is a good dude and a really fucking solid old southern style wrestler. I'm happy the new NWA is allowing him to be a focal point instead of immediately trying to get the belt onto someone younger and who may have some name value. Speaking of southern wrestling, I'll be attending this in a few weeks.

I am full on board the wXw bandwagon and purchased the highspots gimmick to check out their 2017. Inner Circle 4 was a pretty awesome show. Intimate and a quick watch without any of the matches feeling rushed. Excited to check out the Tag League.

The UWA sounds incredible. They didn't mention Tennessee which is also incredible.

CZW running today in a new arena so that should be interesting to see how that goes I suppose

AAW released the Jim Lynam raw footage w/commentary REAL quick. Seems sort of dumb since they haven't released the last two shows before this. Not saying I will wait cause I don't have that sort of self-restraint. AAW's next show feels pretty filler. Hope they find a way to bolster that.
AR Fox vs. Naito for Glory Pro feels like some sort of old school indie wrestling booking that I LOVE!!! There aren't any indies that I think that could pull off bringing in a native NJPW talent like this. Bless the Elgin Connection. That match could be glorious. Or not. I'm honestly not sure it matters. It will be a spectacle. Elgin probably has a couple more things up his sleeve and with Trevor Lee and Lufisto debuting I am expecting their matches to be quality stuff. This is the Glory Pro classic of booking four months in advance though.
Powerbomb.tv's FUTURES is coming together well. Card on the site is: Main Event: The Finals and Semi-Finals of the Powerbomb.tv Independent Wrestling Championship Inaugural Title Tournament (Jonathan Gresham vs. Fly Warrior & Joey Lynch vs. Desean Pratt For the First Time Ever: Beyond Wrestling's John Silver takes on Lucha Libre Star Puma King Representing NOVA Pro: Angelus Layne squares off against Jordynne Grace Red Eagle from Portugal will make his US Debut against "Hot Sauce" Tracy Williams
That doesn't include Eddie Kingston getting a live mic. Surprised they are doing Gresham vs. Warrior in the semis. They built that match up at Break the Barrier.
