and garcia, is that an alt account or something? Yes. I must be an alt due to the fact that I have trolled the board so hard and have an opinion that you disagree with. And Joe works for TNA, not an indy. He wasn't making that kind of money before TNA came along, believe that. No, I was thinking you're an alt, because You registered today, came into a thread and made your first post defending a poster, a poster who just happened to log-off right before you posted, and then you logged off right before he posted.

I doubt Rob Conway makes 6 figure, from what I hear WWE wrestlers are very underpaid if they're not a top guy.

now VT is offline, and Garcia is online. Isn't that strange? I signed up today to ask a question about Vader. I simply seen this thread as I was lurking and decided to respond before I made a thread. I wasn't defending the poster, I was agreeing with some things he mentioned. Someone please match up the IPs so this goof can quit saying I'm someone that I'm not.

Most of their cash flow comes from Merch(which conway has zero of), PPV matches(where he doesn't ever get booked), and house shows.

Can't some indie stars make craploads by doing TNA, ROH & Japan and with less workdays than working in WWE.
Plus i'm angry at WWE Raw (SD is good) because they are putting on pathetic shows

Uhh, ok? I'm finding myself really not caring what you believe, like you are supposed to be somebody important. Thank you for not being a pest any longer as you have already made me question why I bothered signing up.
In my opinion, Indy feds are important to the business for one reason. They serve as a place for rookies to get seasoned and learn the business side of things now that the territories no longer exist. In the long scheme of things though, I feel they are no more important than OVW or DSW.

Joe is making more than he'd make in WWE most likely, and he really only works weekends, and 1 Tuesday a month. Aries is the same, if WWE would ever give him the time of day

Most of their cash flow comes from Merch(which conway has zero of), PPV matches(where he doesn't ever get booked), and house shows. Conway gets a good deal of house show work. PW torch says "but few if any under contract earn less than $80,000" referring to WWE wrestler salaries. Check out www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic.php?id=514106Rob COnway earned more than 150K. And he's no Samoa Joe.

ok. I'll shut up now about the Garcia and VT thing. It looks like I was wrong, and it was a series of odd coincidences. Sorry

I love wrestling, which is why i watch ROH. me,too. Up until recently, my philosophy was go to ROH for any wrestling, and WWE for any SE. Now TNA is giving me a little of both. I still get ROH when I can(which isn't often), and I barely watch any WWE anymore.

to say ROH is like the minor leagues is complete bull
Using analogies like that just doesn't wash, it is attitudes like youres I really don't like, and also don't tar everyone with this stereotypical IWC brush you seem to have, why do you like WWE? because you enjoy it, why does someone else like ROH? not just because its IWC approved or anything but maybe because they genuinely do prefer the product it offers, but NO people like you never take that into account...ever.
BUT to say TNA is minor league..no, TNA is like one of those small teams in a league who are immporving to the point that in a year or 2 they could be competeing with the WWE and the way WWE is now theyma succeed
nd heres something, one guy said ROHbots would like toi think their wrstlers are loyal and all that, ok ever thought that these guys wrestle because they want to wrestle you go to WWE and especially on RAW chances are you'll be brought out so infrequently you'llhardly wrestle matches for any decent lengh of time and because of the lack of time you get on air, you won;t generate fan interest, i mean sure we'd like to think they could be the next angle or benoit, but WWE may treat em like the next Conway or something so its low pay but you do what you love and the crowd love you for it..or get good pay, but rarely get to perform and the crowd are indifferent, think on it
and I am not an ROH fan..hell i never seen an ROH match but names like "ROHbots" n crap like that is childish so just quit it.
