The artwork is spectacular and I'm totally stoked that Tankman has joined the ranks of talented individuals in the FG indy universe... Truth!

It turns out I actually signed all 8 names in this set and I hope everyone likes tonight's announcement.
If it is who I think it is, the wrestler getting announced tonight is someone who has some of my favorite recent artwork (and there has been alot of great recent art.)

 Drawing comparisons to the hall of fame caliber talent, Bryan Danielson, Lee Moriarty is the innovator of TAIGASTYLE – self-described as using a little bit of everything, whatever works in the moment and basically having no fixed style. While some call wrestling a sport and others consider it an artform, Moriarty asks: why not both? His unique mix of styles and artistic flair, aided by undeniable charisma, have made him an indie standout to watch. He’s tangled with the likes of Calvin Tankman, Daniel Garcia, Lio Rush, and Warhorse, to name a few – more often than not having his arm raised in victory. Among the many accolades he has already collected, Moriarty is the current reigning IWTV Champion. |

This is one of a couple names I knew Zeke had signed. Looking really good there.

I was hoping if we'd gotten Lee that the mask he wears during his entrance would be incorporated into his pic, either him holding it or it being the background. But besides that, awesome signing & the art looks incredible.

This is one of a couple names I knew Zeke had signed. Looking really good there. yes! I signed Lee Moriarty in Indianapolis during Labor Day Weekend when AIW and GCW had their doubleheader at the White River State Park in Indianapolis. After the AIW show ended, I talked to Lee Moriarty and signed him. In today's contest, all the board participants- who obviously know their Indy wrestling- actually guessed Lee Moriarty but I am not surprised as he is one of the top names on the Indy scene and if I was in the contest I would have guessed him too. Good job to everyone in the contest for their correct pick today! In addition to being the current IWTV Champion, Lee Moriarty was also the winner of the recent The Masked Wrestler contest which is how he earned his title shot against Warhorse. As was mentioned in the announcement, Lee Moriarty's personal style of wrestling is called Taigastyle which is indeed a mixture of different styles including lucha libre, martial arts (one of Moriarty's idols is Bruce Lee,) and catch wrestling. |
