I've never heard Shlak talk, he sounds like a rejected Muppet

I've never heard Shlak talk, he sounds like a rejected Muppet I know he's not everyone's favourite flavour but whenever he commentates he comes across as an absolute sweetheart.

Am I the only one that thinks Allie Kat flat out sucks in the ring? She is ok on the mic,and the shoots/interviews I have seen with her were entertaining. But her ring work isn't good. And I doubt Shlak will be able to get a good match out of her. Cause wow is he limited in the ring. But besides that match the rest of the show looks decent. Did you see her match against Willow Nightingale at Fight Forever? Was a contender for match of the weekend. She definitely isn't the most consistent performer but I think that perhaps is in part due to the amount of Intergender matches she does which can limit what she's able to do. I haven't seen that match.

Effy with the long con or is 44OH! getting pink merch now? Welp.... Also, 44OH already did a pink variant due to Eric Ryan wanting to do breast cancer charity work last October.

That was the best GCW show in a long time. It looked good on paper but it delivered in spades. I think the pandemic really cut their legs away from under them (as it did us all) and they were left floundering a little as wrestlers they were ready to invest in weren't always available and major plans had to be paused. With everything seemingly back on track or at least a new plan of action in place they look to have a regained confidence again which is great to see.
Now hugely hyped for The Collective weekend and can't wait to see what they bring to the table.

The Clusterf*** is coming to the next Spring Break. I know, I’m as shocked as you are. RICKY SHANE PAGE CANCELLED THE CLUSTERF***! HE’S RUINED SPRING BREAK ALREADY!

The Clusterf*** getting canceled, sadly makes sense. With the pandemic still going on and actively being worse in Florida, a lot of talent that would normally fill a card like this are not participating this time around, plus ICW is running a Pitfighter tournament in this timeslot that is also taking away some depth from the Spring Break card. They just aren't in a position to be able to top the last two Clusterf***s.
Though they did a masterclass bit of booking by attributing the blame to RSP himself. It looks like they are making up for the limited talent pool with some good old fashioned storytelling, with Nick Gage finally getting a fair shot at RSP, the Dirty Daddy f***ing over the Bad Boy, and even Atticus and Masada finally having the skewer based combat they have been arranging for months now.

Like, I wasn’t sure about the whole thing at first but logistically you’re right about the Clusterf*** and having RSP to do it makes sense and you can build a card more around 440H being dethroned with your Lio Rush/Jordan Oliver style matches in between rather than try to build a card that likely won’t be able to happen in Florida.

It's just that I've already seen a lot of talent say "f*** performing in front of Florida crowds with this COVID variant going around," so at best it would be shuffling roughly the same people that took part in Indianapolis, minus the people working Pitfighter and abstaining the weekend entirely. Also, I just realized that the guy who put together the Clusterf***s yearly had a fit over trading cards last time around, and is no longer a free agent. So, maybe it's for the better.

WrestleMania weekend always gives an oddity here and there. This year is no exception.

Have we talked about them reviving the Jersey Championship Wrestling name?
This could be interesting, if they run it like the old days (your typical local stars + bring in 1 or more legends). Reminded me of NWS a bit.

Reminded me of NWS a bit. We haven't, but it's something I'm very interested to see where they take it. The impression I get is that they want to use it almost as a developmental territory for young, up and coming wrestlers, which is a bold move for a promotion the size of GCW. I imagine it'll be more straight up wrestling than GCW too which will be a nice change of pace.

If they do what other indies here do (the GOOD stuff; that is, push their home grown talent while bringing in legends to get more casuals in) I could see myself following them. Hopefully working out safety issues too ;-) But really, yeah, someone I know still has knee problems because of Mike Dennis taking an errant bump. I grabbed the back of Sabu's leg when he and Chris Dickinson tumbled into the seats.

If you haven't seen the trios match from 2 Cups Stuffed, you are missing out. This is essentially a rematch with KTB and Ophidian being swapped out for Dragon Bane and Aramis, but this match is poised to steal Mania week.

Hes running a rival fed, is it due to you not loving the style or did Demanto do something wrong? I want to know so I won't support a toxic individual

NEver heard anything horrible about Demanto. Saw Janella wishing death on people that dont like him on Twitter.

Yup Demanto runs ICW after having a falling out with Brett. And yeah its why I didn't mention Joey. I like him but he can be a prick sometimes
