A bunch of upcoming indy holiday dates for you.
Various indy things. Including an observation by me about Austin Aries...
Kenny Omega returned to his home promotion, Premier Championship Wrestling on Saturday night drawing a sellout at Doubles Bar in Winnipeg: Billy Blaze & Dick Blood b Moses Luke & James Beaver, Scott Justice won over Alix Vanna and Jay Walker, James Korba & Bobby Schink & Shao Ming b Antonio Scorpio & London Dynasty, Kenny Omega & Chris Stevens b Chad Tatum & Mike McSugar, Dragneel won Battle Royal, Jackie Lee b ATM-DQ. Promoter Andrew Shallcross noted that when they announced Omega as appearing tickets sold out in a few days and many fans were turned away. He put over the promotion as a place where people can learn and develop, there was a Y2J chant when he brought up his upcoming big match, and used a lot of comedy props including Lego, Marshmallows and more. Next show is 1/13 at Doubles Bar.
Austin Aries beat Ricochet earlier today in Australia for the World Series of Wrestling title on the final day of the tour. Tessa Blanchard was also defending her WrestleCircus title on the tour and beat Shazza McKenzie. (Guess he didn't feel like whining about their ring again, eh? LOLRing can't be that bad if he still wrestled for them again, which shows what a dumb ass he is for whining about it to begin with)..
Canadian Wrestling Elite from Friday night in Winnipeg: Mentallo b Jak Lydon in a lumberjack match, Mike Mission b Tod Bullet & Wildman Firpo in a bar room brawl, Tyler James b Brian Rich in a loser wears a diaper match, Marky b Tasty Travis in a street fight Danny Duggan b Kevin O'Doyle in a bar room brawl, Marc Merric b Shadow Xtreme in a kiss my foot match, Jacob Creed & Bobby Collins b Tony Atlas & Dragneel, Tyler Colton NC AJ Sanchez, Matt Fairlane b La Sombra (obviously not the famous one) ina 20 minute iron man match when it was stopped at 15:00 due to Sombra breaking his nose, Big V b Rob Stardom. Next show at Rookie's Sports Bar in Winnipeg is 12/22. They run again Thursday in Stony Mountain, Manitoba....
Ricky Morton will be appearing at Wendy's in Lebanon, TN on Thursday from 4-8 P.M. for a fund raiser for a local infant who is seriously ill at Duke University's Children's Hospital. Al proceeds will go to her care.

Published on Nov 27, 2017
NWA Ten Pounds of Gold picks up at the conclusion of the Nick Aldis vs. Tim Storm Worlds Heavyweight Title Match from Championship Wrestling From Hollywood. Our cameras follow Tim Storm through the curtain to get his first comments after the NWA Title match. Nick Aldis spells out the moment he thought he had the Ten Pounds of Gold won.
We follow the NWA Worlds Heavyweight Champion forward in his journey as he comes to Nashville, TN to wrestle for Tried N True Pro Wrestling out of Clarksville, TN. We meet Tim Storm's opponent Jocephus who with one video message sent a disturbing image of what the NWA would be like if Jocephus won the NWA Worlds Heavyweight Title.
We thank Crimson at Tried N True Pro Wrestling for the hospitality and access to cover this NWA Worlds Heavyweight Title match in Clarksville, TN.

Ryback On Impact Wrestling's Problems, Impact No Longer Being #2, WWE Signing Rockstar Spud
As noted, former King of the Mountain Champion Bram departed from Impact Wrestling earlier this month. Ryback discussed his release on his Conversation With The Big Guy podcast.
Bram debuted in TNA in April of 2014. He last wrestled for the company at their Impact Wrestling tapings this past March in Orlando. Ryback said Bram likely parted ways with the company amicably and doesn't believe there were any ill feelings on either side.
"Impact Wrestling has been in a weird boat," Ryback said. "A lot of their talent there have parted ways with them, and I'm not sure if it is a good thing or bad thing, but he was a talent that they used pretty consistently at one point and I think it was a mutual parting, and don't think there were any hard feelings or anything like that."
Ryback pointed out that Bram was the latest in a long list of Impact Wrestling departures, joining the likes of Taryn Terrell, Eddie Kingston, Robbie E, Jeff Jarrett and Reno Scum. He said Impact has lost its status as the number-two wrestling promotion behind the WWE because it keeps losing superstars.
"They have lost a lot of talent over the past year. It's not the same when they were TNA. At one point they were at a level where they could have been considered the #2 company; they're not the #2 company anymore," he said.
"I don't even know who #2 is. Anthem has a lot of money, but their personnel doesn't know how to run a Pro Wrestling company. That is not to say that people involved aren't trying their best, but I don't know. It just kind of seems---based on everything I've seen; they are trying their best. They bring people in, but they're not on a major network. They need things to turn around for them, and I really hope that they do."
Another superstar who was recently released from Impact is former X Division Champion Rockstar Spud. Reports have confirmed that Spud will be signing with the WWE and will likely join the Cruiserweight division. Ryback said he thinks Spud would be a natural fit on 205 Live.
"He's a smaller-sized guy. I actually met him in Nashville a few weeks ago; he is a very nice guy," Ryback said. "I think the reports are for 205 Live, and I think he would be a nice addition as far as personality standpoints if the story is true."

Something tells me he didn't put one ass in a seat here. Austin Aries Lashes Out At Indy Promotion For Their Wrestling Ring (Video)
Simple solution would be, don't work for them anymore, but I have a feeling that this company will have a different version that of course will make Austin look like an idiot. Much like when the Philly crowd did just that two him acouple weeks back at The House Of Hardcore show. Aries probably didn't put one ass in a seat for this show unlike Waltman so all his whining really isn't going to accomplish anything.

UWC ANNOUNCES ANNUAL TOYS FOR TOTS EVENT IN NEW JERSEY
It’s that time of year again! The United Wrestling Coalition is hosting their
annual UWC Toys For Tots Pro Wrestling Toy Drive on Saturday, December 2, 2017.
The event will take place at Kelly's Banquet Hall in Wrightstown, New Jersey.
Doors open at 6:30 and bell time is slated for 7:00 p.m. Admission is FREE when
you donate a new, unwrapped toy (with a suggested minimum value of $10) or a $10
Walmart gift card for Houston flood victims at the door. Toys collected are
distributed by members of the US Marine Corps Reserves and stay within
Burlington County.
In addition, we are encouraging fans to also bring a small stocking stuffed with a few small items and a card of wishes for those Houston children impacted by Hurricane Harvey. We call this effort Stockings of Love! (Suggested stocking fillers would include gift cards, Matchbox cars, hair accessories, dollar store items, etc.)
Everyone making a donation at the door will receive FREE door prize tickets for their chance to win one of over 50 door prizes. Additional door prize tickets will be available for purchase.
Special ringside seating is being reserved for those pledging (in advance of the 12/2 show) to donate a new bicycle. One bicycle donation will reward you up to five reserved seats. To make your pledge to donate a bike, call or text 609-792-9328.
In the main event, reigning UWC Heavyweight Champion T.G.I. Fredo Majors of The Fraternity will defend his title against one half of the UWC Tag Team Champions, "American Muscle" Nate Mustang of The Sons Of Liberty! After stealing The Wrightstown Rumble from Mustang and going on to win the Heavyweight Title in June, Fredo Majors defeated Nate Mustang via disqualification in October when Referee George Pinaha mistakenly believed Mustang intentionally clobbered him. At our November event, Majors and The Fraternity took it upon themselves to attack Mustang and his partner while they were defending the Tag Team Championship. Nate Mustang demanded a championship rematch with Fredo Majors on December 2 at the Toys For Tots Toy Drive, and Fredo agreed, on one condition: it would be a Loser Leaves Town Match! The winner of the bout gets the belt and gets to stay. The loser gets the next bus out of town. This will be your last chance to see either Fredo Majors or Nate Mustang for a very long time.
The "Thriller" Andd Bivians and Craig Francis have been going at each other for nearly a year. Their most recent encounter ended in a double countout. That won't happen on December 2 at Kelly's Banquet Hall when Andd Bivians and Craig Francis battle it out in a Lumberjack Match! Wrestlers will surround the ring, and their job is to prevent the action from spilling out onto the floor. We don't know who will emerge victorious, but we do know this match will not end in a countout!
In October, Lance Scaper won the right to challenge for either the United States or Tag Team Championship. He chose to go after the tag team belts with Kleetus as his partner. They will have their shot at reigning champions The Sons Of Liberty at Toys For Tots in Wrightstown. But Scaper & Kleetus aren't the only ones getting a shot at gold (which will be defended by Spectrum & The “Lost Boy” Jay Kirby.) Since their championship bout with The Sons Of Liberty was interrupted by The Fraternity in November, Doom Crew (Manabo & Oliver Bailey, along with that weaselly little Joe Wolf) has demanded a rematch. Additionally, Spectrum & Kirby want nothing more than to get their hands on Fraternity members Ace Matthews & “Brilliant” Bobby Banks. All four teams will compete in a Fatal Four-Way Tag Team Attraction! One member of two teams start. Anyone could be tagged in by anyone else and can be subject to immediate disqualification for failure to accept a tag. The first team to achieve a pinfall or submission wins!
At our last event, Textbook Philly Madison turned his nose up at the thought of wrestling fiery youngster Jay "The Key" Evans or even Sons Of Liberty member Spectrum. He and his manager Mr. Black simply walked out, demanding "real competition." At the Toys For Tots Pro Wrestling Toy Drive on December 2 at Kelly's Banquet Hall in Wrightstown, New Jersey, we believe we've found the real competition they've looking for: THE CREMATOR!
The “Jersey Shore Mad Man” Slayer was out of action for months as a result of a torn bicep. During that time, Bobby Piper began wearing a forearm guard due to a questionable injury. After Slater returned, he was viciously attacked by Piper who reinjured his arm. The “Jersey Shore Mad Man” has his sites squarely set on Bobby Piper December 2 in Wrightstown. Piper will be accompanied by his manager Mr. Black, but this time, Slayer will have Donnie Victory in his corner. You won't want to miss this grudge match!
Also at the Toys For Tots Pro Wrestling Toy Drive on December 2 in Wrightstown you'll see “The One” Geoffrey Bravo, Iron Bull Argus, Jimmy Pipes, Craig Z-List, Serious William, Chris Wilcox, The Honorable President and Former Heavyweight Champion Joe Rules, and more of your UWC favorites! PLUS a special appearance by Santa Claus!
United Wrestling Coalition has earned its reputation for running family-oriented pro wrestling events. The events are designed to offer the very best entertainment while enhancing the community and helping to raise awareness and capital for various worthy causes.
This year's event is sponsored by Lucas Chrysler Jeep Dodge of Mount Holly as well as Kate & Al's Pizza of Columbus Farmers Market.
Once dubbed the largest single toy drive effort in Burlington County, UWC has been hosting these events for nearly 20 years. In that time, through the generous donations of loyal fans, local businesses, as well as the wrestlers themselves, UWC has collected well over 18,000 toys for the US Marine Corps Toys For Tots campaign.
Kelly's Bar and Banquet Hall is making this venue available for this wonderful event. Please stop by and check out their banquet facilities.
Remember, UWC returns with the annual Toys For Tots Pro Wrestling Toy Drive at Kelly's Banquet Hall, 14 Railroad Avenue, Wrightstown, NJ 08562, Saturday, December 2, 2017. Doors open at 6:30 p.m., bell time is 7:00 p.m., and admission is FREE with toy donation. Card subject to change. The show typically runs two hours, and door prizes will be awarded at the conclusion of the show.

WHO WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE RETURN OF STARRCADE
WWE's Starrcade event over the weekend garnered a lot of attention online and
a lot of frustration among fans as the show didn't air live on the WWE Network.
The show was never slated to be a special and was produced as a house show, but
WWE did film it with several cameras (they typically film every live event) so
they would have it in their archives to offer via the Network down the line if
they choose to do so.
The show itself was written by Michael Hayes, who was the person that pitched the revival of the Starrcade name back in June. We are told that Hayes, realizing that WWE was running Greensboro over Thanksgiving weekend, seized on the importance of the timing and the tradition in the market to pitch that the show be branded as a "Starrcade" event. Vince McMahon approved the idea and it was announced several months later. The show was specifically written by Hayes with an eye on paying tribute to names who were important to to the market during the Jim Crockett Promotions era and with throwback graphics for the show.
The Starrcade event was a success in that there was a huge bump from the previous event in Greensboro as the market reacted to the show as something special and WWE saw a huge response to the event on social media, far higher than social media material from a "typical" live event. There's already talk of doing it again next year.

Aro Lucha, the new promotion from former Impact Wrestling minority owner and
production company Aroluxe, announced their first event would be 12/10 in
Nashville, TN at the Nashville Fairground (aka the former TNA Asylum) with
former WWE World champion Rey Mysterio headlining an event featuring a mix of
former WWE and lucha libre talents.
As previously reported, Aroluxe had been funding Impact tapings in exchange for a percentage of ownership in the company and as PWInsider.com reported in 2016, the company was in a position to claim ownership over Impact had Dixie Carter not maintained regular payments reimbursing Aroluxe. As it turned out, Anthem Media would come in as an investor and eventually purchase Impact from Carter's company Impact Ventures LLC. That left Aroluxe out in the cold as they were not retained as Impact's production company.
The Twitter account for Aro Lucha promises, "High-energy Lucha Libre for the entire Authentic family. Authentic stars, characters & stories. Live events & digital content. Lucha for the fans by the fans."
The official press release reads:
Arolucha, Inc. is proud to announce that Rey Mysterio will headline the main event for the Aro Lucha show in Nashville on December 10th, 201

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.'"

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.
Drake cut a good promo before the match saying everyone was gunning for him.
Swagger and Impact double teamed Drake early. They tossed him over the top to the floor and then faced off. They went back and forth.

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.

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.

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.

Is Austin Aries really that much of a bitch?
Austin Aries responded to a claim from a fan who posted on Facebook that Aries was rude and abusive at an airport. The fan stated that they approached Aries with some friends and asked for a photo with Aries, who started "abusing us saying why didn't we pay at the show."
"WHO THE F__K IS AUSTIN ARIES?!!! After what happened this morning, you've lost a true fan who's been supporting you since Day 1," the fan wrote on Facebook. "I can't believe you think my friends & I aren't supporters just because we asked nicely for a photo at the airport & you start abusing us saying why didn't we pay at the show plus on top of that, you tried to get us kicked out of Qantas but lucky the amazing staff defended us saying we're doing nothing wrong.
"We pay YOUR salary, YOUR tickets, put food on YOUR table & make you who YOU are today.
"Be f--king grateful you've got fans coming to the airport, wanting your photo/autograph, don't be all greedy/money hungry thinking you're f--king king s--t lol"
Austin's response seems pretty weak to me. Looks more like Aries just got punked. ...

There is a funny story about Tuesday's WWE Smackdown tapings in Lexington. It is the first time in six years that WWE has done a television taping from the city. While they did run house shows, they wouldn't do a taping or a PPV because the Kentucky commission had a rule that pro wrestling matches had to be stopped if there was bleeding, and WWE didn't want to run TV with the chance a match could be stopped over their heads. A lobbying effort led to the repeal of that rule and now they are back doing TV in the state. What makes this story funny is it's written that blood is a huge part of WWE, when it hasn't been for years, and that 99.99 percent of the time there is blood, it's theatrics, when actually, unless it's Vince McMahon or Brock Lesnar, and both of them would deny that's the case for them as well, blood is always accidental and theatrical blading has been banned in WWE for years. They acted like this would bring tons of tourism money for hotels, restaurants and shopping into town, which may be the case to a degree for a minor PPV and more for a major one, but hardly for Smackdown tapings that have been struggling to draw for the last several months.
