WALTER Describes To Steve Austin How Backstage Partying In Pro Wrestling Has Died Down

independent professional wrestling standout WALTER recently Ubered to 317 Gimmick Street for an interview with WWE Hall Of Famer Steve Austin on The Steve Austin Show. Among many other interesting pro wrestling topics, WALTER talked about the how the partying has died down in pro wrestling.
According to WALTER, the partying in pro wrestling is way down now. Moreover, the Progress World Champion said he has not gotten drunk in pro wrestling for several years now.
"In general, I would think, as I experience it right now, I would think that the [pro] wrestlers now are more calmed down and more easy. And the [pro wrestling] business in general, is, like, I would call it 'healthy' when it comes to the 'party effect' of it." WALTER added, "here and there, when there's an occasion, you have a few beers, and spend more time at whatever place where you're eating, maybe it's a bar. For me, personally, I don't know. The last time I got drunk at wrestling was maybe six years ago or something, seven years ago."
In WALTER's opinion, even the drug choices in pro wrestling have gotten better, as performers may opt for cannibis over opioids and other dangerous substances.
"It's dangerous and I know it's dangerous to get stuck in it too." WALTER explained, "like, yeah, you have people now who overdo it, you always have them, but it's a personal choice. It's up to them. I don't want to judge them or anything. I just don't think it's the right thing to do for me. Also, when it comes to drugs and stuff, that I would think the drug choices are healthier now. I think people would rather smoke weed than do pills or anything dangerous and stuff like that, so that's something too."

Jay Lethal On Why Ring Of Honor Attracts UFC Fans Compared To Other Promotions

Ring of Honor World Champion Jay Lethal was interviewed by the Lewiston Sun Journal to promotion the upcoming Global Wars tour in Maine. Lethal said that fans are experiencing a "boom period" in pro wrestling right now, and promotions are more exposed now due to social media and the Internet.
"A lot of people weren't able to see Ring of Honor are now getting to see it because of the internet," Lethal said. "It's not just Ring of Honor. A lot of people who weren't able to see, maybe PWG, can now see them via the internet. So every wrestling fan is getting access to every wrestling product out there, which is helping everybody."
Lethal also commented on why Ring of Honor has the ability to attract fans from UFC compared to other promotions.
"Ring of Honor really focuses their product on the in-ring action," said Lethal. "I feel that's what really makes us stand out. Also, we've been able to pull some of the guys who love UFC because once you focus on just the in-ring product you get that feeling of real competition happening. The people don't feel like they're just watching a show."
In its 16 years as a company, Ring of Honor has been the hub of world champions, with names such as Seth Rollins (as Tyler Black), Kevin Owens (as Kevin Steen), Daniel Bryan (as Bryan Danielson), CM Punk, and AJ Styles have reached the top of the WWE mountain. In addition, names such as Samoa Joe and and Austin Aries have reached World Championship status in Impact Wrestling during their respective tenures.
Lethal commented on the success of Ring of Honor being able to create stars, "If you look at most of the champions around the world, most of them came out of Ring of Honor."
Although most know that matches are predetermined, Lethal shared his thoughts on the reality aspect of the pro wrestling industry.
"Wrestling is real, to an extent," said Lethal. "The outcome is predetermined, but I think nowadays people are taking it for what it's worth, and they understand, but they still want to be entertained. For a lot of people, they want to feel that two people are in the ring and being as competitive as they possibly can for one person to win. I think that's what we really focus our product on."
Lethal is currently in his second reign as ROH World Champion, and recently passed Nigel McGuinness as the second longest reigning champion of all-time. He is also just under four months away from passing the 645-day total from Samoa Joe.

WWE 'Again' Adding Matches To Their Network That Are Already On Youtube (UUHH OOHHH)

Special 'Thanks' to Paul Jordan at PWInsider for posting there, what became the the inspiration for this post, HERE. :)

Paul Jordan posted This... 

But one look on Youtube and as you can see by, THIS.. That match has been on Youtube, so trying to feature it as part of a "Marquee Match" series makes the WWE once again look quite stupid.

Oh but wait, there's more. There's also this as well, thanks to Paul Jordan's 'reporting'. 

And of course if you're seeing this post, you know what's coming nest, right? That's THIS. Proving again  that WWE is dumb as fuck when it comes to this stuff because i bust them quite often on stuff like this.
Just alittle bit of research goes a long way but I guess when they're too busy micromanaging the bad gimmicks, horrible storylines and incredibly horrible scripted promos they write for the talent, they don't have time to research things that they're going to put on their own network. Which is why, someone like me will always have the fun job of fact checking them and make them look stupid. It's quite easy as they in a way, make themselves look dumb as fuck all by themselves doing this shit.
