There's not a single person on the card based in the UK? That's insane. So just on flights alone its gonna be 10k without paying the talent or accommodation for them. What utter mark is paying for this?! Kinda reminds me of five star wrestling when they got a one off spot on one of the Channel 5 sister stations, they blew a huge amount of money on America talent, offering CM punk a million they didn't have, and the show didn't really benefit from it as it felt like a smackdown v raw game from 2009. they weren't picked up by five, they took a TV slot on a minor channel from another promotion then folded.

Weren't they also drawing a few hundred people to venues that seat thousands too?

It's gonna be really funny if they sell like 200 seats to a 10K arena just to have Braun further extend his existential crisis about "I don't work Indies losers!!"

Can't get their website to load properly, but the announced card looks like it's basically CYN plus Alistair Overeem, for some reason. Only a couple are involved with CYN.

Wrestling Entertainment Series features Braun Strowman, Nia Jax, Lana, Kalisto, Authors of Pain, Fandango, Mojo Rawley, Lince Dorado and many more come together – including the wrestling debut of K1 Champion and former UFC heavyweight Alistair Overeem. Keep an eye on our website and social channels for more information.
My reaction is no thank you. Nia Jax is going to literally kill someone next

Just saw it pointed out the acronym for this show is WESUK and I can't unsee it. How did they not see that. Or if they saw it since they keep using just WES how did they think others wouldn't. This is like my TEW save where I purposely made things have terrible or misleading acronyms to see people demand it >_>

OK, who is funding this? AOP can't have earned that much money yeah I was wondering this too. SRS was asked about his thoughts on show/card overall on one of his shows and was vague about the funding part. I only heard him say something like they big money backer (paraphrasing here) and then he and the Co host just moved on to keep talking about whatever they were talking about (Sash/Naomi maybe). Sorry for the rambling. my memory isn't great.

Took me longer than I’m proud to admit about how long it took for me to realise the joke about the acronym

Nothing disappoints me more than the fact I won't get to see Adam Scherr versus Overeem because what the f*** is that

Adam is on a mission to sloppily wrestle every opponent Lesnar had in MMA to see who hits him the hardest in the head.
