Is there a reason why requesting money up front isn't standard operating procedure for any indy wrestler?

I feel like being a wrestling promoter has to be somewhere between parking lot attendant and clydesdale fluffer in the hierarchy of careers in America.

an interesting note about the Hardcore Roadtrip situation, via Gregory Iron's Facebook: That right there is awesome. This whole Extreme Rising and HCRT are exaples of the worst in indie wrestling. Living off a dead promotion, screwing over talent, dishonesty. What SMASH did shows what good indies are like. Not all promoters are greedy liars. Support good indies.

I dunno guys, not to sound pessimistic, but it doesn't seem like Extreme Rising is doing too well at all.

Is there a reason why requesting money up front isn't standard operating procedure for any indy wrestler? You'd think that it's up to the promoter to have enough capital to pay all expenses to begin with, and then hopefully recover all of it and more through ticket sales. Mostly because indy wrestlers are as bad as indy promoters- and the promoter knows if the wrestler requests money up front, odds are they're going to take the money and not show up.

But, it did end up being for the Extreme Rising belt after all. So it was all an angle? Part of the angle being McDevitt's concern about the fans being screwed? Enough of this garbage.
Everyone who runs a wrestling news web site should refuse to write anything whatsoever about these people again until every fan has been refunded first.

Is Dan McDevitt related to WWE attorney Jerry McDevitt?

Would be hilarious considering his wrestling name was Corporal Punishment.

I don't think anything in my lifetime has ever been raped after it's death like ECW. Have you seen the line from a fellow FAN member that I quote in my signature caption?

When will people realize that ECW and everything surrounding it is cursed and doomed for failure. The fact the last couple of months, Extreme Rising has been cancelling shows should tell you the health of the promotion. ECW is dead. Quit raping the corpse. No it's a good looking corpse.
