Who is going to be the BDK? Also, weird card, but I'll probably still get it.

Meh card, and I gotta be honest, they waited way too long now IMO, I was with them during Ashes, I was with them up until NPWD, and I understand why may 25th was the relaunch, but the reality is I don't care about this show at all, it also doesn't help the NJPW has an iPPV that day as well with a couple of really nice matches(Ibushi/Ishii, AJ/Okada2, Tanahashi and Makabe v Goto and Shibata, now it also has 2 gracie matches so that's a bummer) so I would imagine my wrestling dollar will go to NJPW that day

Ares and someone else. Tursas was at tag world night 2 so perhaps him.

I'm pretty much at the excitement level I was during their last few seasons. I'm sure being there will be a lot of fun. But right now I would have gladly taken Wrestling is Respect over this.

That's cool that the Tag World Grand Prix is back. I'm probably more excited for that than this card.

You saw that pirate eye for the knight guy have the cdp, right?

Here's WIF!'s card for Saturday's iPPV

TWGP Semi Finals:
Knight Eye for the Pirate Guy vs. Throwbacks
Osirian Portal vs. Devastation Corporation

TWGP Finals

Gary the Barn Owl vs. Joe Pittman
Shynron vs. Jaka
Eric Corvis vs. Oleg the Usurper
Los Ice Creams vs. Submission Squad


So I don't know which show has the worse card.

Final match is COLONY v Colony: Xtreme Force

I think this just won in terms of better card, skiff.

anyone getting the ippv today?

I HAVE TO WATCH JUDGMENT DAY 2000 so I'm going to get the mp4 tomorrow or tuesday.

No can only talk myself into one ippv and that was njpw, plus I don't really want to watch wrestling on sunday afternoons

So i guess icarus won the belt, confirming that my decision to not buy this was correct.

I thought it was pretty obvi that Icarus was gonna win

I mean yea. But still. Fuck that.

I mean what else would they do with Kingston?

Huge battle at the end of the PPV which featured the BDK, dr cube, Sinn. Bodhi, and all the Rudos including Nokkar (er) who looks like Tursas but is slimmer. The Titor Titan (unofficial name) also absolutely destroyed the now technico Kobald with a ungodly choke bomb. Soldier ant and delirious are also back and under the rudo control probably thanks to Cube. Awesome show, hot crowd, should totally buy it when the mp4 releases.

I believe they did announce KOT for Easton this year, can you confirm that dragondragon?

They did there's a hype video on youtube.

Kingston appears to be hanging it up. He tweeted the following:

"12years is good enough I think."

"I will honor all my June dates at ACE AAW HOH AIW and Chikara"

Love me some Eddie Kingston, but good for him if he wants to retire on his own terms.

He'll be back

That's kind of what I figure too. He'll take maybe a year off to heal up injuries and then he'll feel compelled to get back in.

Will he be retired as long as Low Ki?

He'd better be back. Wrestling would suck considerably without Eddie Kingston around.

He almost fought a girl... He's my favorite besides sexy Chuckie T who went into his kid scaring stuff. Also it's nøkken btw

Quack loves him some Norse mythology. Waiting for fenrir to pop up in chikky
