I feel weird making a thread for every wrestling show I attend. So if there isn’t a thread already for a particular promotion, I think I’m just going to post about it here. I encourage anyone interested to do the same if they’d like. Big or small it’s always fun to hear what people are seeing and experiencing.
10/2/2021- Started the day off by going to a legends convention in the city I reside in. I feel guilty every time I attend this particular company’s shows (combination of hearing racial hate speech from someone involved and them sneaking wrestlers with serious allegations into their conventions by just not announcing them online), so I won’t put them over by name. I ended up getting a few Filsinger game cards signed. Coolest thing that happened was getting to show Chris Masters his game card for the first time. He ended up taking a few photos of the card and posted it on his Instagram story.
A little later in the afternoon I drove to a Fenton, MI to catch night 2 of ICW:NHB’s Deathmatch Circus. In typical ICW fashion they were running some weird compound in the middle of nowhere. The previous night’s shows (I didn’t attend because of work) were held outside, but the rain today forced them to relocate into this small storage barn on the property. The change in location also seemingly caused them to scale back on the amount of glass used since everyone was packed into such a small space. Subjective highlights included Larry D and Justin Kyle absolutely destroying each other with doors, Eddy Only flourishing as a comedy wrestler, and getting to witness the experience that is seeing Sadika wrestle for the first time.
Top matches from this show to catch on IWTV:
- Larry D. Vs. Justin Kyle
- John Wayne Murdoch vs. Dale Patricks
- Eddy Only vs. Neil Diamond Cutter
