WCPW - Anyone Watching?

OK, its going from books to booking, but any WCPW fans on here? ICW's good but WCPW has better stories. Great to see indie wrestlers getting some real exposure outside the core fans.

 

Wrestling's not reaslly my thing, but I looked it up. OK, I'm hooked It just doesn't take itself seriously. Kirby in a dress?

 

I'll be podcasting the iPPV at least. Jim Cornette and Jim Ross on commentary is worth the 6.99

 

Jim Cornette and Jim Ross ? Did you know they were doing a talk in London last night?

 

Yes, I was there...there for the Bret Hart walk in!

And managed to fight the stream to see Refuse to Lose this morning, not live. They had better improve things for the next iPPV (or the next Loaded tonight) or they are going to lose fans. Their extras stream didn't work, jumped all over the place and 404'd repeatedly. Not impressive.

Kirby vs. Conners was great though, but in the wrong place on the card. Several of the people I was watching with elected to skip the Angle/Hendry match and go to bed - it was well after 3a.m. on a work night...

 

It wasn't bad, some of the matches were good, but PPV worthy I dunno.

 

Our live PPV party got screwed by lag so we went down the pub. Finally saw it last night. Great to finally see Sewer rat getting whats coming to him. Kirby? Great match, crappy end!

 

I have no idea what you guys are on about and I never understood the fascination in watching two guys hitting each other in their underwear...but hey, if you like that kind of thing.

 

'cos its funny. You seen Martin Kirby? Turns out he's allergic to dresses:

 

More problems with their live feed - they didn;t manage to get Loaded out on Friday so Extra subscribers lost out (and technically lost out again as half of Loaded 12 was Refuse to Lose reruns). The tag match was worth seeing though.

Their veiwing figures (here) seem to have stopped rising so fast, probably because of all the problems with Extra, but 6M views isn't bad.

 

Well it's kept it together so far, that's several months in which it's grown a bit.

Now ITV are in on the act with a Christmas special "World of Sport".

 

Will OSpreay went heel NO! I was hoping he and Kirby would team up against Pacitti.

 

WCPW back in London and I'm looking forward to it.

 

Well, we went to Chain Reaction live on Monday night. Spoiler: It was fantastic! What you wanted the results? Not a chance. Wait 'til Friday.

 

Nope - still don't get it. I did try having a look at some of it...still, still, still cannot see what the fascination with it is.

Each to their own I guess.

 

So the Scottish World Cup Qualifier's this Sat. Anyone watching ? I have popcorn! Love the new GM, he's kind of squishy and breakable!

 

Shows have been getting better - sound and picture quality getting worse. They need to sort those out.

Thought it was the English Qualifiers this weekend, Scottish ones shown next weekend.

 

I'm watching it right now! Anyone else?

 

Loved the World Cup Qualifier, and the chant's. Ospreay makes a hittable bad guy. Just wish they'd kick Hendry out the Prestige and let Coffey lead, he's a dead spot.

 

He's grown on me - and he's the more standard charismatic heel of the lot. Gunn and Banks are better, and Coffey is for fish out of water with these guys.

Love the thing they have going with the Travelodge hotel card.
