Does Independent Wrestling Need A Reality Check?

[WinWithTheAceHigh]

Also, glad you took advice and stopped putting your face on camera. OOOF.

@WinWithTheAceHigh . Who made you a member of the Wrestling Community anyways ? Nobody, that's who. Now take your little opinions back to the playground with all the other little brats in Cena and Punk t-shirts. YOU are ruining wrestling. Please cease watching immediately.

[WinWithTheAceHigh]

You really do have no idea what you're talking about. For every good point you may have made, you made ten bad ones. Please retire from Youtube. The wrestling community could use less people like you.

[thebestaround5000]

@WinWithTheAceHigh . Typical Keyboard Warrior. Just a Flaming Troll is all you really are. There are too many douchebags like yourself on Youtube. You are the Fool who needs to retire. If you win with AceHigh, you must suck at poker. Move along little boy, your mommys calling.

They need to put more emphasis on fueds and post more video packages hyping them. I'm not a big Indy fan by any means but I saw a video package about Chris hero vs human tornado. The video was so good I was very interested in the feud. That clip was a year old at the time but it had the feel of a big rivalry on a big stage

Thats why ROH is so paper thin now on guys who can actually wrestle. Sorry to say but yeah. They have a one match PPV every damn ppv nowadays. Its always a Davey match or an Eddie match and...... ??? nothing. I miss the days of dragon, ki, joe, punk, aries, nigel, styles, etc. not fucking mike bennett and rhett titus.

I say each indy promotion has different things that they excel at and different things to offer wrestling fans. I have always been against the idea of grouping all independent promotions together as "indy wrestling", because if people look at WWE and TNA differently despite both being mainstream, why can't each indy promotion be looked at differently? I think IPPV is a good way for those less-rich promotions to pull in viewers by doing live shows.

I think DVDs are ancient now. I think online streaming (similar to Netflix or even Highspots.TV) should be the way Indy companies sell their content, along with iPPVs. You're always gonna have your DVD buyers but for me personally I don't like watching DVDs more than once and I sure as hell don't like watching wrestling DVDs that I know the results of. It would be faster to put the content on a streaming paysite than to print DVDs and I think you appeal to people who don't buy DVDs like me.

Its completely beyond me why PWG doesnt expand, or advertise more. I mean i know they just got a twitter but its still not that much. Staying in SoCal is key for them because of expenses. But its obvious that they have the best wrestling product in the world right now. Its basically an All Star Promotion. With story, they 'type out' the story or a little back story. Which is lame.

@Manonfire310 yeah they pretty much are an all star promotion. their shows all feel like super shows for the most part. they definitely should do IPPV

[eddydeez]

Really ROH is trying to appeal to everyone? I don't see that.

[DoubleCrossKing]

@eddydeez I agree, they seem to know themselves that they have niche.

[willferrelsux]

@DoubleCrossKing Not really. THey keep trying to push WWE-ish guys like Mike Bennett. ANE kind of fit into this as well. GUys who have no talent but have the WWE type look and personality.

[DoubleCrossKing]

@willferrelsux Good point, and I kinda wish that a few "WWE-Stereotype" guys could get over in the ROH product (given that they CAN wrestle), and that would diversify the look of the product a bit.
