First, you either should live in CT, or attend CT shows regularly to be allowed to vote.

Second, the ones voting for PGW are likely either people that hate by going to one show maybe, or don't like the hype on here, so its a piss vote, but again, its a free vote.

I voted other, for WCWA, as when they ran, their shows were constantly directionless, tho the talent tried, I think some issues w the owner and such made it a bit "chaotic". (no pun obviously)

I'm sure PGW will take all the negative votes into advisement before their big show tomorrow. Thanks, and see you at a show somewhere

And remember, Ghostaclaus is coming...the real one..ha

Well, I have only seen PGW, DPW, Wrestlejam and Northeast Wrestling. Out of them, I don't have a "worst" one. All very different, all very enjoyable. My fav though? Probably PGW. But, sorry, nothing negative to say about any of the others, except just wish I could comment on the others.

Yeah it is, it's just like the worst fan, and all that. People just trying to stir stuff up for "entertainment' value.

It looks like the 2 most hated are the 2 favorite in reality.

DPW and PGW are really the only 2 promotions who not only stay active but both have loyal followings. For somebody to say they HATE either of them is surprising. As a CT wrestling fan I like have choices. If you want a family show go to PGW, if you want a dirtier show go to DPW.

I personally voted for WCWA. Sadly I attended a WCWA show. It was soo bad it was almost worth the price of admission just to see how bad indy wrestling can be.

Thumbs up to both DPW and PGW if you vote against either of those you must not have been to a WCWA show.

Listen, this is my poll so therefore I get to make the rules, not you.

I thought it was legit poll. If it offends you that much, then maybe you should go seek professional help.

That you have to "suffer" through NWA Upstate & 2CW instead of seeing PGW?

The NEW official internet home of the Matt Ryan Radio Programme! - http://www.smokinanddrinkin.com/

Also, debuting VERY soon, a new project with a strong focus on the New England and Upstate New York indy wrestling scene-

Well, Ive never seen 2CW or Upstate, but have heard a lot of great things. The point is, Ive NEVER seen them.

PGW is a family show that doesnt have wild fans, and some of the talent isnt on the level of your NY promotions. But, its fun, and those who haven't seen it, it may not be for you. But, to totally shit on something just from word, or being upset bout too many threads on a message board, silly.

Yes, because you've never ever done either of those, right?

And by the way, how am I shitting on the feds listed in the poll? It is a harmless poll, right?

They use a lot of the same talent, but how would you know they are a copy of PGW? I haven't been to a show of theirs, but using similar talent doesn't mean you are copying another promotion, or a lot of Mass promotions would be guilty of plagiarism as well. Smile
