So, I love traveling and each year try to go to a place I've never been.
I also happen to have a lot of points built up from a local airline that is discontinuing its rewards program soon.
SO, of these four cities I've never been, can you recommend me the top indies worth checking out in the area who have shows there over the next few months (say March-July?)
Thanks!

Inspire Pro Wrestling, Anarchy Championship Wrestling, and AAW (also in Chicago) are the three I know of out of Austin at the moment. Of those Inspire has a show March 3rd I think. After that I'm not seeing anything scheduled.
I believe Luke Hawx' Wildkat is based out of New Orleans but don't know the schedule.

West Coast Wrestling Connection in Salem, Oregon is pretty damn good. Think Paragon Pro, their sadly defunct sister promotion, only with a more local focus and copious amounts of The Grappler. Other known names who have passed through include Gangrel, Darin Corbin, Caleb Konley and Killer Kross. I've never been to a show, but I did watch their old TV show. Family friendly, but lots of fun.

The Bucks crashed a show at Defy(?) In Seattle recently, so I'd imagine they've got some buzz.
And if you wind up there and find yourself at The Unicorn for a drink, there will probably be a very surely bartender in a Flyers hat. Say hi to him for me.

For NOLA you got three choices.
Wildkat Sports-Biggest indie in the deep south. Went to every show from 2011 till 2014. Here the quality has dropped a bit. But they still got some good talent.
Elev8 Pro-They run lots of small towns around NOLA. Was started by a few guys that have issues with Wildkat and Luke Hawx. The quality of there shows depends on who they book. Went to one Elev8 show that was Damn good. Then went to another months later that was kinda bunk.
Voodoo Wrestling-Been around for years. Shows are very hit or miss. Honesty unless you really want to see Rodney Mack live I would skip Voodoo.
Sadly Elite Championsh Wrestling doesn't run NOLA anymore. Rumor is Luke Hawx was mad that ECW was growing and getting a good buzz. So Luke used his connections to get Elites license pulled. Now Elite runs Pensacola MS.
Chaz if you do go-to NOLA let me know. We might drive down and hit a show with ya.

3-2-1 Battle is a fun bar wrestling type indy out of Seattle, very much like HOODSLAM. I watched a show recently, and they have a fun atmosphere, particularly if you're LGBTQIA friendly. Battlemania is their big show on April 19th. www.facebook.com/321Battle/ |

Battlemania is their big show on April 19th. www.facebook.com/321Battle/I think this one makes the most sense for me factoring in the points. Honestly unfamiliar with them, but I'm impressed by their Facebook and website. The shows look like a blast! How is the area? Would I be able to find a good hotel on the cheap and is it fairly close to cool stuff in Seattle? Is it pedestrian friendly? |

Naw, man, I don't even live in Seattle (although I wish I did).  Like I said, I just saw their stuff on Twitch and thought it was interesting. Let me know how it was. |
