It’s great to see strong crowds back on the weekend, MCW was packed.

Is there any strength to the rumours that Renegades have KENTA for July?

I assume, but he's in the G1 tournament so can't announce him til after the 5th

I'll have to go to Colosseum and hand count.

All I ask for is a big babyface Ricky South run to happen since PWA decided to sabotage for whatever reason.

Good luck with that. PWA’s booking never seems to make much sense.

I mean MCW in future. PWA had a money baby face they put over their biggest heel strongly and then put him on ice.

this was in the Observer daily update:
The IWA in New South Wales promoted the first 30 minute women’s Iron Man match ever in the state last Friday in Sydney. Rita Stone and Charlie Evans were the opponents, Historian Ed Lock said Stone is probably the best rookie he’s seen in over 25 years of calling matches in Australia. Stone won three falls to two.
---------
is Rita Stone that good?

WSW Most Wanted Brisbane notes:

Spoiler

Matt Cardona said he can't defend his WSW World Title, but will pay someone in the back to defend it for him. Nic Nemeth came out saying he'll be the challenger.
TJP retained the WSW Australian Title vs Brian Cage and Jack Cartwheel in a 3 way match via red mist to Cartwheels face, TJP went to shake his hand but Cartwheel walked off.
Elijah (fka Elias) played his guitar, then Ryan Nemeth (who was a heel and used his old AEW theme) came out and said it's a good crowd, the centrelink payments must have come in.
Elijah beat Ryan Nemeth via a guitar shot when the ref wasn't looking.
Ash By Elegance (working as a face) beat Frankie B.
Hammerstone retained Matt Cardona's WSW World Title vs Nic Nemeth, via Hammerstone hitting Nemeth in the head with the title while the ref wasn't looking, in the main event. Post-match Nic Nemeth (with help from Ash By Elegance) managed to stop Hammerstone, Cardona, De Lander and Lena Kross from beating him up.

I like and respect Ed but he's been a known shill for IWA for at least 20 years now. Also, would Rita Stone be considered a rookie? She's been wrestling for 3 and a half years.

thanks. appreciate the context

I have seen Rita perform a few times. She is a very good in ring performer just doesn’t have much of a character. With Ed referring to her as a rookie I think he meant her rookie years, she is only just coming into her own now and think it’s great that IWA are letting these girls go out there and kill it.
Ed also commentates at Newy Pro. To my knowledge Ed has only worked for IWA for the past few years. He used to promote his own shows many years ago

Japan is the best for this. Forces you to work out how to connect with crowds every day who don't know or care who you are in 6 man tags where you may get 1 to 2 minutes max.

 

[Dingbat McFlurry]

I was wondering who does the booking for each of the Australian promotions?

WSW Most Wanted Melbourne notes:

Spoiler

Shigehiro Irie won the WSW Australian Title from TJP.
Brian Cage beat Jack Cartwheel in a very good match, Brian Cage also did a cartwheel during and after the match.
Elijah beat Caveman Ugg via a guitar shot.
Nic Nemeth and Ash By Elegance beat Hammerstone and Lena Kross in the main event.

Depends on the promotion - but it's all different people.

Thanks for the heads up on this one!

ROW and MCW both almost sold out. Better move on the tickets if you want to go.

What were the crowd numbers like at these WSW shows?

Melbourne was 781 seats + whatever standing so it was pretty big.

The Penrith event was pretty decent crowd wise, maybe 600-700?

Not sure if it’s been mentioned here but MCW/OPW: World’s Collide is happening in September, with Mustafa Ali and Flammer announced for the show.



I don’t know much about the goings on of OPW but if i’m putting the pieces together correctly this show is happening because an OPW show in Ballarat was cancelled. (Please correct me if i’m wrong)

Yes the Ballarat show is going to be later in the year now.

Th main question is how two companies with nearly identical rosters Worlds can collide? I love MCW but OPW is not a real thing

What a joke

At least it's the violent few now, no longer the violent many
