One of the best things about local indy wrestling is getting to know the wrestlers in a way you never would with WWE or AEW or much bigger companies.
At the local show last night, there were library patrons in the ring and in the crowd, a buddy I was sitting with had trained with the local promotion (and broken his leg in his first match!) but has started training again including doing a workout before the doors opened.
Great show last night – super hot crowd and incredibly exciting. And I have no idea what my parents thought but as a kid, I used to have my bedroom walls *plastered* with pictures of my favourite wrestlers including many in various stages of heavy blood loss!
Wild to see a full crimson mask at a local show like this – but the guy did win the belt so worth it I’m sure!
