NWA headed for a Aldis v Storm match up at the Dec PPV? Like to see Jochepus used a little more seriously and nice to see Murdoch back on there. What's Drake's role? Best talker on the show IMO though would like to see some more ring time.

I thought Storm couldn't fight for the belt ever again?

It's a little confusing. That's a different Storm. The Storm who I think who will get a shot is in the current national heavyweight champion. The cowboy Storm.

DDT show is on tomorrow (main show at 5pm AEDT) featuring Omega teaming with Riho, and many other crazy matches.

WALTER's match in Big Japan from yesterday

 

[Paul Kersey]

Gonna be in Japan over the weekend. Korakuen Hall has a Noah show on Saturday night - plan is to go.

Anyone else watch the AJPW show on Monday night?

Came across an app/website called independentwrestling.tv which lets you stream over 2400 wrestling events from over 150 different indy promotions worldwide, including Chikara, CZW and IWA:MS. Even has some events from Pro Wrestling Australia on there. Costs $10 a month to subscribe, or $100 a year. Considering the content they have, I'd say it's very reasonably priced.

It's fun watching guys like Cesaro, Daniel Bryan, Adam Cole and Sami Zayn before they hit WWE. Currently watching the 2010 King of Trios from Chikara, complete with a long-haired Johnny Gargano!

MLW release Teddy Hart, but sign ACH.

Also would it be possible to rename this thread to The Indy Wrestling Thread? It looks archaic since the wrestling landscape has changed.

AAA is live on twitch right now. Lucha Bros in the house.

watching the TJPW show streaming on youtube in their dojo due to coronavirus. It's weird watching matches with the 2 count for pinfalls rule in effect.
(darn, only the first 4 matches airing on youtube, then watch the rest on DDT Universe - subscription required)

EDIT: link updated as they reuploaded the video with matches from rounds 1 & 2.

 

[Cleavy]

looks like some of the WM weekend independent shows are available for purchase on FITE now.

EDIT: looks like most up now, and some video podcast shows over WM weekend for purchase too.

hopefully the losses from cancelled/postponing the indy shows from WM weekend aren't so bad where they cannot run them in the future. Apparently certain promoters/promotions are getting stung with non-refundable hotel bills.

This virus will end promotions and careers.

Dragon Gate empty arena show from yesterday with English commentary

 

[Cleavy]

TJPW just about to start an empty arena show (first 5 matches free on Youtube)

 

[winty]

Anyone else pumped about this coming out at the end of the month?

No
