according to PWInsider, GFW may soon be coming to television...in England My guess is Challenge. They're TNA's only hope and soon they'll be Jarrett's only hope.

It'll be on the Bonanza network, the Sky channel that shows endless repeats of Bonanza and Teleshopping.

So shall we decide what's going to be the name of the third promotion Jarrett starts up then? Hey kids, it's Jeff Jarrett's latest project! Super Hot International Talent Wrestling!

funny note from the Observer about the last two ballpark shows they ran: Not an unusual thing. I went to a WWE house show about 4 years ago where they announced Gail Kim as being from Alabama.

People who don't follow wrestling and are as clueless as Shaggy & Scooby before the first commercial break.

It's gone down.

250 fans? That is terrible for company seeking TV.

Being realistic about this company not making it is one thing, but there are people here who are actually rooting against TNA/GWF
As a fan, it is better if there are more companies. It creates more job (potentially even for us), able's more wrestlers to be seen, and help make wrestling more popular.

Plus I would really like for there to be a decent place for wrestlers who are good enough to be on TV, but aren't going to get four stars from Meltzer or anything like that (that isn't WWE).

I have more incentive than anybody here for GFW to succeed, considering their prosperity means more GFW tapings I could attend. But it's not going to happen on the path they are taking, and I don't want them to become another yet another TNA that I can't even root for due to shady business practices and squandering of opportunities that could go to a much more deserving entity.

Has Jarrett done anything that would entail "shady business practices?" making the wrestlers pay out of pocket for travel and hotels making the wrestlers do paid autograph signings, then keeping all the money for themselves telling the wrestlers "You're not getting paid tonight, you'll be paid sometime in the future" piggybacking off other promotions by saying their wrestlers on going to appear on this show when they're not (ROH) continued advertisement of wrestlers they know aren't going to be on the show (Karl Anderson at last weekend's shows)

going back to the "out of date" stuff for a second, this was from the results of their July 9 show: - GFW Legend "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan came out and cut a pro-USA promo, but was interrupted by Arya Daivari, who is of Middle Eastern decent so you know he's against 'Merica. Duggan then laid out Daivari (USA! USA! USA!). its stuff like this that let you know GFW really is the future of wrestling. why should fans settle for promotions giving them the same tired and rehashed cliched storylines when the Force is giving us something fresh, unique and original like The American vs. The America-Hating Foreigner. on their show last night, "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan came out and cut a pro-USA promo, but was interrupted by Arya Daivari, who is still of Middle Easter decent and still anti-American, and who was once again laid out by Duggan.

I can't believe it's reached more pages on this thread than fans at events.
