Man, if there was only a cross political party group in the UK specializing in helping in sorting out matters to do with professional wrestling and changing the perception of it to the public.
Sorry, maybe we need to tell them WWE might be affected and they'll help out.

Yeah this is going to be a stick to beat companies with now for at least the rest of the year. All it takes is 1 person sending a complaint in and going "look at what happened here it could happen again!"

See I wanna know what a 3 out of 5 doors match is Is it like a multi fall table match but doors instead of tables? Is it 3 out of 5 falls but they all take place in differently themed rooms? What? WHAT? pretty much the first one. A lot of indy places buy cheap doors instead of tables because they're more likely to break when you actually want them to. Add in that the doors are easier to find and much cheaper. Last year BIW was running their first tables match ever. We searched all over locally and online to find a wooden table. All we found was expensive. The promoter was about to just use doors when a local fan found 2 old wooden folding tables in his house. So those got used.

I just hope that one kid in attendance had an epiphany watching the death match competitors and vowed to himself “I will stay in school, study hard and go on to complete my college degree.”

I remember at a PCW show them using a decorating table that was already flimsy and there was a guy who was stood protecting it from people putting their drinks on it whilst they weren't using it

It worked well enough to be honest.

As the obvious responses have been covered, I'll ask the important tangential question.
Has John Morrison ever wrestled in a Doors match?

It does take away most of the power of the spot when you look at it and go "this table wouldn't hold wallpaper!" I thought that would be the case too, but the pop from the crowd when the guy got powerbombed through it was still impressive. The table obviously broken the middle, but the legs shattered off too, the whole thing just exploded. It would work better though having it at ringside with a cover over it, like a commentary/timekeeper's table. That way you can't see how shite it is lol

Didn't Fit Finlay nearly lose the use of hus leg un WCW because they used the wrong table for the spot? Can't believe wrestlers and promoters would be so blasé about what kinds of tables they use.
