I added the above comments just now. How much you want to bet they'll be deleted as well? Talk about a bitch move by someone at The Torch, LOL! That's funny as hell. Here's the link to where if they had the guts to post them, the comments would be at.

Diamond Dallas Page On Getting Hurt After Receiving A Seven-Figure Contract
Diamond Dallas Page spoke with the Atlanta Business Chronicle on a number of topics in and outside of pro wrestling. Here are some of the highlights:
Getting paid less as a top guy in WCW and sustaining an injury after receiving a big contract:
"I started wrestling when I was 35, but my career didn't take off until I was 40. When you look at me in the beginning of '96 and at the end of '96, I'm two different people. When my career took off like a rocket in '97 - me against the nWo and Randy Savage - I wasn't just a top guy, I was the top guy and then in '98, I blew my back out. [$250,000 is] a lot of money in the real world, but for being on-top of the wrestling world, that sucks. I had just gotten that 3-year, multi-million dollar deal and that's when I blew my back out."
His goal with DDP Yoga within the next four years:
"I did what WWE did with the network, but I did it with fitness. Now, my goal is to be a $100 million company before I'm 65.
The first WWE Superstar to use his DDP Yoga program:
"I had just done the WWE: The Very Best of WCW Monday Nitro and while I was there I was shooting behind the scenes with Shawn Michaels, who was the first guy ever to do my program, which, along with his surgery, helped him get back in the ring. [Michaels] told me, 'Jericho is hurting and I told him to call you.'"

I guess, No Contest? No, I was wrong. They announced Jungle Grrl was the winner by DQ.
If you know what to expect from WOW, which is sort of a modern day take on GLOW, it was fine. Grrl and O'Neal worked hard.
Josh “The Goods” Woods vs. Dan Severn with Jim Cornette
They said this was going to be the last time Jim Cornette was working as a manager. He took the mic and put over Severn's accomplishments. He said it was going to be a great match but warned Woods not to cross Severn or he would unleash the Beast.
They locked up and ended up in the ropes several times. Severn broke clean. Lots of mat work and wrestling holds early on. Severn caught Woods with a Greco-Roman throw. They grappled and Severn ended up in the ropes, necessitating a break.
Woods got on his hands and knees and offered to give Severn the chance to grapple with him. He reversed the attempt. He offered to do the same. Severn took Woods down this time, but Woods reversed it and worked over his arm. Severn rolled him into a pinning combination and scored the pin out of nowhere.
Your winner, Dan Severn!
I have to be honest. This was not what you were looking for in a wrestling match if you were looking to be entertained. I respected the grappling they did, but as a match, it felt like they never got out of first gear and for a match that was supposed to be Jim Cornette's last match as a manager, he didn't even do anything! It was just OK.
After the match, Cornette and Severn both praised Woods for his athletic ability and potential. Woods left the ring. Cornette put over Severn for all of his athletic ability and for being someone who has wrestled as an amateur and a professional since he was 7 or 8 years old and who represented the United States all over the world.
Cornette said that after 35 years, this would be the last match he would manage at ringside. He said that if he keeps doing this, he was going to end up hurting himself and everyone would laugh at him. He said that if he was done, he wanted it to be in the Carolinas and with someone like Severn he respects. He said that if it wasn't for the Carolinas, Dusty Rhodes, Jim Crockett Promotions and The Midnight Express, he wouldn't be here. He said that he wanted to thank the fans, their parents and grandparents because without them, he wouldn't have had the best time of his career. It was a great speech, better than the match,
Top Rope Belts Battle Royal
This was for a new belt after Matt Hardy deleted the Wrestlecade title last year. Tracy Smothers, Matt Striker, Bobby Fulton, Mr. Hughes, Crazzy Steve. D'Lo Brown, Hurricane, Kevin Thorne and Swoggle were the biggest names with a lot of locals I don't know. It was your typical Battle Royal. In the end, Hurricane was victorious.
Joey Mercury vs. Ryback
As soon as the bell rang, Mercury went to the floor. He talked trash to Ryback. Ryback nailed a Thesz Press for a two count. Mercury rolled to the outside again but Ryback followed.

He tried to whip Mercury across the ring but Joey held onto the ropes and nailed him.

Ryback hit a dive to the floor. Ryback tossed him back into the ring for a Shellshock but Joey escaped and nailed a Death Valley Driver on Ryback. Mercury, of course, followed up with a Pedigree.

Good back and forth match that came off far more competitive than you might have suspected going in.

They battled into ring, where Velez wedged a chair in between the turnbuckles. She tried to whip Taya into it but the Irish whip was reversed and Velez hit the chair.

Iveliise brought Taya back into the ring. A ladder was set up outside of the ring, leaning against the guard rail. Taya tried to send Velez into it but Velez reversed it and Taya took a hard bump into the ladder. Back in the ring, Velez went to use a chair but was kicked in the gut. Taya nailed the Road to Valhalla. She rolled out of the ring and pulled a table out from underneath. Taya tried to put Velez through the table but Ivelisse moved and Taya went through. Velez wrapped the chain around Taya's throat and yanked backwards. Taya tapped.
Your winner, Ivelisse Velez!
A HELL of a fun brawl. How Velez isn't picked up by a major promotion is beyond me. She was absolutely great here. Taya was right with her. This was so entertaining.

David McLane was the ring announcer. Grrl charged the ring and nailed Star but was attacked and worked over by Amber with axehandles across the back. Amber was sent to the floor. Grrl followed and chased her back into the ring. Amber gained control but was caught with a spear. Grrl nailed a Falcon Arrow, but instead of going for the pin, ascended to the top. Star tried to get involved but was knocked off the apron.
Grrl came off the top but was superkicked by Amber in mid-air for a two count. Amber covered her in an arrogant manner but Grrl got her leg on the rope. Grrl manhandled Amber but was caught with a bulldog for a two count. The ref got bumped.
Amber held Grrl. Star went to hit her with a mirror but Grrl moved and it was shattered over O'Neal's head. Grrl came off the ropes with a flying splash but Star pulled the referee out. O'Neal drilled Grrl with a kick and nailed a Facebuster. The second referee went to make the count but the original referee stopped him and they argued.
Jungle Grrl made a comeback and nailed the Falcon Arrow. She went back to the top for a splash but another wrestler, who they called The Beast, hit the ring and caught her for a chokeslam. Lana Star acted as if the Beast was her charge but ended up getting laid out as well.
Jungle Grrl and The Beast went nose to nose and were held apart by the referees.
I guess, No Contest? No, I was wrong. They announced Jungle Grrl was the winner by DQ.
If you know what to expect from WOW, which is sort of a modern day take on GLOW, it was fine. Grrl and O'Neal worked hard.
Josh “The Goods” Woods vs. Dan Severn with Jim Cornette
They said this was going to be the last time Jim Cornette was working as a manager. He took the mic and put over Severn's accomplishments. He said it was going to be a great match but warned Woods not to cross Severn or he would unleash the Beast.
They locked up and ended up in the ropes several times. Severn broke clean. Lots of mat work and wrestling holds early on. Severn caught Woods with a Greco-Roman throw. They grappled and Severn ended up in the ropes, necessitating a break.
Woods got on his hands and knees and offered to give Severn the chance to grapple with him. He reversed the attempt. He offered to do the same. Severn took Woods down this time, but Woods reversed it and worked over his arm. Severn rolled him into a pinning combination and scored the pin out of nowhere.
Your winner, Dan Severn!
I have to be honest. This was not what you were looking for in a wrestling match if you were looking to be entertained. I respected the grappling they did, but as a match, it felt like they never got out of first gear and for a match that was supposed to be Jim Cornette's last match as a manager, he didn't even do anything! It was just OK.
After the match, Cornette and Severn both praised Woods for his athletic ability and potential. Woods left the ring. Cornette put over Severn for all of his athletic ability and for being someone who has wrestled as an amateur and a professional since he was 7 or 8 years old and who represented the United States all over the world.
Cornette said that after 35 years, this would be the last match he would manage at ringside. He said that if he keeps doing this, he was going to end up hurting himself and everyone would laugh at him. He said that if he was done, he wanted it to be in the Carolinas and with someone like Severn he respects. He said that if it wasn't for the Carolinas, Dusty Rhodes, Jim Crockett Promotions and The Midnight Express, he wouldn't be here. He said that he wanted to thank the fans, their parents and grandparents because without them, he wouldn't have had the best time of his career. It was a great speech, better than the match,
Top Rope Belts Battle Royal
This was for a new belt after Matt Hardy deleted the Wrestlecade title last year. Tracy Smothers, Matt Striker, Bobby Fulton, Mr. Hughes, Crazzy Steve. D'Lo Brown, Hurricane, Kevin Thorne and Swoggle were the biggest names with a lot of locals I don't know. It was your typical Battle Royal. In the end, Hurricane was victorious.
Joey Mercury vs. Ryback
As soon as the bell rang, Mercury went to the floor. He talked trash to Ryback. Ryback nailed a Thesz Press for a two count. Mercury rolled to the outside again but Ryback followed. He trashed Mercury on the floor and knocked his head into the table at ringside. Mercury was stalked on the floor. Mercury went back to the ring and nailed Ryback as he returned, sending him off the apron into the barrier at ringside. Mercury tried to get the referee to try and count Ryback out. Ryback returned to the ring at the nine count. Mercury tossed him back out to the floor.
Mercury used a sleeper but Ryback made the comeback. Mercury was sent into the corner and nailed with a Cannonball in the corner. Mercury recovered and ducked the Meathook, nailing a big German suplex Mercury began teasing that he was going to do the Meathook. He charged but was hit with a spinebuster. Ryback turned him into a Texas Cloverleaf variation. Mercury made it to the ropes and tried to escape but was nailed across the back. He tried to whip Mercury across the ring but Joey held onto the ropes and nailed him.
Mercury avoided the Shellshock and clotheslined Ryback. Mercury nailed Ryback with a Shellshock for a two count, using Ryback's own finisher against him. Joey was sent to the floor. Ryback hit a dive to the floor. Ryback tossed him back into the ring for a Shellshock but Joey escaped and nailed a Death Valley Driver on Ryback. Mercury, of course, followed up with a Pedigree. Ryback popped up like Road Warrior Hawk out of a piledriver and nailed the Shellshock for the pin.
Your winner, Ryback!
Good back and forth match that came off far more competitive than you might have suspected going in.
Ivelisse vs Taya Valkyrie - No DQ Match
They brawled on the floor before the bell ever began. Ivelisse worked over Taya against the barricade, nailing kicks. She sent Taya into the apron. Velez used a Singapore Cane on Taya, lashing her across the back and choking her with it. Ivelisse hit a flip dive off the apron the floor. They battled into ring, where Velez wedged a chair in between the turnbuckles. She tried to whip Taya into it but the Irish whip was reversed and Velez hit the chair. Velez was bleeding from the forehead a bit.
Taya grabbed a chain and used it to nail Velez, who went to the floor. She worked over Velez with the cane. She snapped a cookie sheet over Velez's head. Back in the ring, Velez was worked over with punches and locked in a side chinlock. Taya set up a pair of chairs and dropkicked them into her. Taya set up Velez and nailed a double knee strike in the corner for a two count. Velez came back with kicks to the legs. They brawled into the crowd and brawled through the building. Velez nailed a DDT on a round table that was set up for VIP fans in the crowd, That looked cool as hell. Taya was out in a chair in the crowd and Ivellise unloaded with kicks.
Iveliise brought Taya back into the ring. A ladder was set up outside of the ring, leaning against the guard rail. Taya tried to send Velez into it but Velez reversed it and Taya took a hard bump into the ladder. Back in the ring, Velez went to use a chair but was kicked in the gut. Taya nailed the Road to Valhalla. She rolled out of the ring and pulled a table out from underneath. Taya tried to put Velez through the table but Ivelisse moved and Taya went through. Velez wrapped the chain around Taya's throat and yanked backwards. Taya tapped.
Your winner, Ivelisse Velez!
A HELL of a fun brawl. How Velez isn't picked up by a major promotion is beyond me. She was absolutely great here. Taya was right with her. This was so entertaining.
Impact champion Eli Drake vs Jack Swagger w/ Dutch Mantell and Catalina Swagger vs Johnny Impact
Dutch Mantel came out and said that they let him out of nursing home long enough to come and do this show. He introduced Jack Swagger.

FINAL TAKE/RELEVANT REMARKS:
Pretty rad short card with a variety of matches. No huge names being on the show really allowed everyone on the card to shine. This was a good showcase of some up and coming singles and tag teams that will definitely be making more buzz as we head into 2018.
The show was well paced and kept the flow going. Each match was the proper length. I was really impressed by the ladies match, MJF's heel tactics, and Gage's new found intense but focused brawling style. Gresham as the chickensh** cheap win heel is money!
For a standalone show under their own banner, Powerbomb.TV should be commended for their efforts. I look forward to more of their unique cards, and moreover I am pleased to hear their deal with Beyond Wrestling as their new home for streaming and VOD is a GO!

For the many new viewers here. I HAVE worked in Wrestling before. Here's some proof for you.
These are some older articles I wrote that I thought I'd reshare with people here again.
This is about how I locally promoted my first show for WWA New England (back in 1997) in Rochester, New Hampshire, one of the toughest towns in the state to promote in (Because it's what's termed as a 'permit' town. Have to get city council, approval to issue a permit to run the show there). This comes from the Wrestling Then And Now Webpage.
http://www.angelfire.com/wrestling3/thenandnow/articles/promoter.html
This is how I got my break to where I eventually did become a local promoter in NH.
http://prowrestlingtapes.angelfire.com/awf.html
Going from Atlantic Wrestling Federation to WWA New England.
http://prowrestlingtapes.angelfire.com/WWA.html
And then moving on to the Eastern Wrestling Alliance when they were based in Maine.
http://prowrestlingtapes.angelfire.com/ewa.html
All these and more are at this old webpage I used to have that I actually forgot the password on (and the email In had at the time to create it, I no longer have, LOL) so if you enjoy any of this, there's alittle more here.
