Saturday Snap – Crimson Mask, Ringside Wrestling, Regina

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 […]
