Anyone else heard about this? It basically is supposed to be a pro wrestling version of Bloodsport, with raised mats and no ropes. "The War Master" is running one of these in Jersey City on Mania weekend, with Frank Mir making his pro wrestling debut on the show.

It's a GCW concept show, similar Joey Janela's Spring Break. They did it last year, too, but it was Matt Riddle's Bloodsport. They just do something different from a typical wrestling show.
Last year had Minoru Suzuki vs. Matt Riddle.

Last year's Bloodsport show was really refreshing and a lot of fun. Matt Riddle vs Mironu Suzuki, Dan Severn vs Chris Dickinson, there were some real jams on it. Worth tracking down.

how the heck does that work? Worked matches that take away a lot of the new age aspects of pro wrestling due to the ropes being gone?

Last year's show started a bit weak but really delivered in the back half, so I'm excited for this one. Mania Weekend has so many shows and these kind of gimmick shows working a specific and unique style make for some of the most interesting, just for standing out as something different amid all of the other really good wrestling that goes on. how the heck does that work? Worked matches that take away a lot of the new age aspects of pro wrestling due to the ropes being gone? They're structured to be more MMA-ish by way of pro wrestling. Focus on strikes and submissions, no real need to run the ropes or anything. It's a very specific taste, admittedly, but if that kind of match appeals to you then it's a blast. |

The lack of Riddle makes it more interesting. I can't picture Mir rasslin, but I'm definitely wanting to see what happens.
