I really enjoyed the BLP show last year. Based on everything I have seen from the promotion its right down my alley.
Only show I think I liked better was AIW, and I can only say I think I liked it better as there are periods I was way too drunk to remember. I certainly had the AIW spirit in mind!

The guy who runs BLP has often said AIW was his inspiration when starting the company. AIW, BLP, GCW & Beyond are my favorite current companies.
81 Bay Brewing Company just announced they'll have several shows that week, its 17 minutes from the Collective shows. (Theres also shows at several other breweries in the Tampa area 😁🍻)
I may checked out the Pop Up Wrestling show Saturday afternoon, my local companies ring announcer got booked for the show & so far they've got Tony Atlas & Gangrel. It's only 4 minutes from the Collective shows.

I originally was going to see Major League Wrestling in Chicago next month (until MLW cancelled that show) and as part of my trip I was going to see BLP in Indiana just 1 hour away from Chicago that Saturday afternoon. I don't know when I will finally get to see MLW, but I am glad I will still finally get to see BLP during Mania Weekend. Looking forward to seeing the Indy Indie!

Yeah I heard Mikey Blanton mention that to John Thorne on the AIW podcast that was previewing the Collective last year. Very cool. Speaking of the AIW podcast, if I ever make it back to the Cleveland area John said he would love to do a Wrestling geek Fest retrospective podcast, which I think would be a ton of fun. May see about making it out for Wrestle Rager and Olde Wrestling Extravaganza weekend if its the same weekend again.

Also very happy to see that AIW will be streaming on IWTV and GCW will have some IWTV shows this year as well.

That's always one of the topics I ask for was when they ask for podcast suggestions on twitter & Facebook.

WrestleCon just announced the Europe vs The World show is being replaced by NJPW doing a Lion's Project show & the Festival de Lucha will now be WrestleCon Worldwide and will include wrestlers from all around the world instead of focusing on Mexico.
