You know, I thought it was silly when I first heard about it but now that I understand the reasoning behind it and seen the match selection, I'm all for it. Good idea.

I get the idea, but is it really necessary to run opposite Raw, especially a hyped Reunion show and the go-home for the Rumble?

Lack of Team Tremendous Investigation upsets me greatly.

"We're aren't against WWE RAW but watch our show instead". I hope they replay it later because I'm interested in watching the matches but I'm picking a live RAW over taped matches.

But when it was announced and throughout the weeks leading up, no one really detailed what exactly it was until the match listing was updated. I thought the idea was for an all-star indy show presented by SMV, not retreads of matches that, let's be honest, I can find if I really want to see.

It's a shame that it won't be replayed. I'm not choosing RAW over it, but I am busy tonight. I do hope that some people check this out tonight, though, and like what they see. It's a very cool lineup.

I hope they replay it later Nope. Does it really matter if a bunch of pre-taped matches are not replayed? You can just get the individual matches and play them. Live show over taped show any day.

I don't really care that the matches are retreads since the idea is to get people INTO indy wrestling, not put on a supershow for indy diehards.

"MY shoot job", come on man. Just say "Real job" or "day job".

Wrestle Kingdom 9 wasn't an indy show.
It sucks that it'll only be a live stream and not archived, but there's great stuff on here. Steen/Bailey, Page/Gargano and Athena/Yim are all so great, and I'm fairly confident that the rest of the matches are great too. You can always DVR RAW and watch this live if possible.

I don't get the idea to compete with raw, most people only care for the WWE, and the others already watch indy wrestling all the other days, they are not gaining new viewers or at least guys who will expend real money watching them, since wrestling fans are cheap

Watching this instead of RAW tonight because this will, hopefully, be better.
