Great shout out from Will Ospreay to MCW in the press conference today for AEW. Brooks shouted back on twitter.
Would love to see him with a lot of their roster, Waterman and him would be a classic. Rocky would be an interesting one seeing as Rocky works the typical Japanese style you get over...
One of my friends who went in Sydney said it wasn't great either.
I think it comes down to:
Who are the shows for?
If these shows are for trainees to get more experience, they need to invest.
Like Sydney should have been
Moretti vs x
Bonza vs x
Velocities vs x y
Fale vs x
Or do one name...
Mcw is a different beast though in terms of giving last minute refunds to people. So there will always be tickets on sale even up to the last moment. Standing sometimes sells out. Sometimes doesn't. I don't even see the last 30 standing tickets as a big thing in the scheme of things.
As I said...
I think it was more to get the Women's belt off Delta to do something different there. Erika seems to be getting over with the crowd well, always good to have another over champion.
I'm just joking mate. It's fantastic how things are going lately. Never in my dreams would I imagine people having so many viable options where to perform in front of great sized crowds.

I had a lot of other problems other than this. Just thought everything looked weak. I don't know if Troy is injured, or just because not working as much, but everything seemed off, even compared to their last match. I watch Mio Momono live all the time beat people wayyyy bigger than her and it...
How so? If anything they didn't book her strongly enough. They had FUDGE of all people save her and give her the match with Ricky South.
Anyway, none of this matters, they have an upswing at the moment. Hopefully, they don't PWA it up. Turn Troy heel or something like that.
PWA's issues come from booking not anything intergender. They already had a captive audience who accepted Troy as a top wrestler. Turning the babyface champ no one wanted to see as a heel crushed their audience.
I mean more the reputational damage. They had people complain about not being paid to head office which was a headache that they didn't want to deal with.
Watched the Lochie R thing. He really should have had a go at making something like this non wrestling or non tied into wrestling with his real name. I think being wrestling related really undersells how good a job he did with limited resources.
Or otherwise if he wanted to do something...
