I have seen Sting Wrestle in person three or four times back in WCW, but he seems to be the only "TNA Guy" now, who wont do any indy shows. I mean, if NEW could get Angle to do some events, pay the Stinger..

I sincerely couldn't care less about it, but don't you usually make a big deal about spelling and grammar? Like how that French Canadian hardcore chic had an extra 'n' in professional?

What a battle. Poor Abby can't move, I hear. Hed sit in the corner and try and jab Jack w a fork. Jack would battle back w a cheese grater, or a sickel. What a bout thatd be . Smile

Not in the ring, but as a mentor.

TNA: Alex Shelly

Indie: PAC
I'd give him another chance. He didn't get much offense in when I saw him against American Dragon in Hartford.

Hell ya on both accounts. Seen Shelley live ago and he was amazing.

Man so many people I will go to see. LuFisto, Jack Evans, MsChif, Mercedes, Cheerleader Melissa, The Haze, Ally Danger, Homicide, Jimmy Rave, Tony Mamaluke, Danny Havok, Drake Younger, Sabian, Super Dragon, Trent Acid, Ruckus, the Brisceos, Generico, Steen, Sexxxy Eddie, Jimmy Jacobs, Tyler Black, Lacey, Aries and the list goes on for TNA and Indy names. Also most of CHIKARA will sell me in a heartbeat.

Local talent I will go see are Adonis, Chris Battle, Lukas Sharp, Stiff Biff, Mikaze, Zombie, Bricco, Del Tsunami, Liz Savage, Andy Sweet, Kirsten Frost, FRANKIE!!!, Bryce and of course Brian Anthony, cause he usually is my ride. Nothing like getting keyfabed on your way to the show by someone you knew for years and watched train many a nights.

I am forgetting someone I know but cannot remember who so, sorry in advance Sad

Oh, Jose Perez and Furio; how could I forget them. Both awesome guys.

Grr, forgot Romeo Roselli as well.



But for me matchups are more important than who is signed. A card with mostly local talent in good matchups is better than random mixed shows with big stars. I also am a sucker for 6 to 10 man lucha tag rules matches.
