It's better off than any other country actually.

Eh? CMLL is in its worst shape since the company was founded. The semi-main event for their biggest show fell apart before a week before the show. AAA has big plans but haven't really been able to fully capitalize on them yet.

Silias Young just beat Dalton Castle. He now controls the Boys.

Going to get some good vignettes

No way. I thought for sure they wouldn't do that. That is good plotting though, bad things happen moving the story forward.

 

[Man God]

That midget beating me? I am a GIANT!

 

[Sweeney Tom]

Not surprised by either of these

 

[BronsonLee]

OH MY GOD IS THE CMLL PPV JUST AN UNLISTED YOUTUBE LINK?

Lucha companies either go big or go home on their damn PPV gaffes

it's fitting that this murderous traitor did himself in

I didn't betray nobody, man. I didn't sell out, I bought IN on this sweet sword and some explosives.

I may be dead, but they'll remember me the most! Gallant ain't shit!

Lmao @ day one

You were the Rue of these games, too pure for this damn earth, RIP :'( #blessed

I didn't say it was better off than it ever was. That it's better off than the other countries. America's independents peak out with their popularity early and either don't want to grow(PWG) or struggle with growing due to poaching and constantly changing ownership(ROH and CZW) if you count NXT then that plus WWE makes them arguably better but only if you can get work in one company. In Japan, everyone but NJPW is having horrid attendance problems. Europe has a huge, bustling indie scene but no major company to go to after that. Mexico still has two very large companies to go to that can sell decent(and potentially sell out) arenas and venues as well a a Mexican indie scene that is bustling just as much as the European one.

And Mexico's only going to get better with them offering wrestlers health insurance. It's pretty much the place to be if you're not going to NJPW or WWE. And I don't even know if NJPW pays more than AAA or CMLL.

I guess you didn't SEE that coming, ohohohoho

Good lord, how many people did Gallant/I kill in that damn thing? I feel like I should get a bonus for that triple kill. Halo's just like real life, right

Day 5;

Fuck you BrosonLee

 

[slightconfuse]

Don't know how many people listen to MLW radio. But it seems konnan got worked into a shoot and. Got MSL kicked off the network

 

[Man God]

WHO KILLED VINCE MCMAHON?

 

[Jimmy King]

Not surprised by either of these

I forgive you

 

[Sweeney Tom]

I can't believe the CMLL iPPV being an unlisted Youtube stream

New carny ground broken throughout the year

 

[¡HarlequinPanic!]

passed over for this year's games...

 

[BronsonLee]

Fuck you BrosonLee

Look man, I just saw Highlander and I really wanted to test it out

Also, that Stephen Amell tweet thread is stupid as shit. Everyone getting worked into a shoot over some of the most sugarcoated tweets of all time

 

[Data West]

here you go dream

you can forgive me now

 

[Man God]

Still better than Triplemania. Probably will make more money with an unlisted youtube stream.

 

[slightconfuse]

Moose is going to get pushed to the moon In WWE. Can't wait

Dude is improving rapidly

I mean if you count success by number of jobs and just the number of fans at events then Mexico may be the best option but there's a reason AAA upper middle carders like Pentagon are willing to work indies like AIW. Its very low money for anyone except the top, top guys.

 

[Data West]

I like to think Park and Wagner are responsible for this.

Gets them on TV which helps them sell merch. If Pentagon didn't have that AAA deal, they never would have put him in Lucha Underground. It puts eyes on them which is still more than they can get from any other company. We all know NXT doesn't pay well either unless you're a 'top, top guy'

 

[somedevil]

Well the first semifinal of the Dusty tournament that will happen on Oct 7 has been determined:

Its

Spoiler

Balor and Joe vs Dawson and Wilder aka the Mechanics aka Brainbusters 2015

I just hope the other semifinal is Corbin and Rhyno vs

Spoiler

Jordan and Gable. Who wants the hype bros instead?

 

[Man God]

I want Techno Team 2000 to come out of a time machine and face the finalists at the next takeover. They've come straight from 1995 to save wrasslin from itself.

 

[Data West]

Sarah Stock's last match in Mexico on now.

Sugehit could kill me with those thighs

 

[British Monsoon]

Maximo is so fucking crazy over. Also, I like Stuka's dive. That splash on the entranceway was pretty dope as well.

 

[Data West]

Is NOAH part of streaming NJPW World yet or what

 

[BronsonLee]

You better do the job, Stock!

 

[Man God]

Moolah looks great out there.

 

[slightconfuse]

Is NOAH part of streaming NJPW World yet or what

no which is why they that Suzuki gun show a while back. only way to book NOAH talent

 

[Oersted]

None of the four horsewomen are in the game, nor will they be DLC

But 3 different Austins and HHHs and Takers are

UNIQUE MODELS, LARGEST ROSTER, NXT, UP TO DATE THROUGH MANIA

2 different Stephs lol

 

[Data West]

Man they are really letting these matches go long. Either they need to fill time or they must really like the matchups.

 

[jred2k]

WHAT THE FUCK KOFI?

 

[Data West]

Shades of the Nitro Girls, friends.



Valiente got fucking buff, damn. That dude used to a squatty little fat dude

 

[slightconfuse]

Shades of the Nitro Girls, friends.

[Data West]

[slightconfuse]

[Data West]

It's hilarious how much the crowd hates Mistico 2.

Fuck Mistico 2.

 

[slightconfuse]

It's hilarious how much the crowd hates Mistico 2.

Fuck Mistico 2.

there a reason Sin Botcha didnt go back to CMLL?

 

[slightconfuse]

Dragon Lee is awesome

 

[Data West]

there a reason Sin Botcha didnt go back to CMLL?

AAA offered more money.

 

[Data West]

This is a fun match despite 3/6 of the guys in it being lame.

 

[slightconfuse]

if anyone wants to see how great Dragon Lee is. (also how dope Kamaitachi is)

watch this

 

[slightconfuse]

Val Venis, was the 8th CMLL World Heavyweight Champion under the name "Steel"

WHAT????

 

[Data West]

Remember when this match was going to have 2 legends in it and now we have old fart Shocker, the world's worst telenovela star, and Thunder

 

[British Monsoon]

Why was the crowd booing the technicos so bad? Just because Mistico 2 sucks, or because Negro Casas is awesome?

 

[slightconfuse]

[Data West]

Both

Valiente got cheered. They actually booed Felino when he pointed to Mistico then when he pointed to Valiente, they cheered.
