Wrestlemania 29 Thoughts
I wonder what WWE will learn from the top three matches? A new match structure for these shows or just go back to having a main event opener liked Edge and Del Rio had?

Wrestlemania 29 Thoughts
Had no real issue with the first half of the show but the second half the business end was so badly paced having the best to worst of the three kick out fests in that order and back to back. The retirement stip didn't seem to play into the Brock match at all or added any drama. Must a great day to be CM Punk given how well the match came off relative to the rest of the card. Rock looked somewhere between massively conformable and only doing it for the money. WWE should finally give up the ghost and all the hand wringing on Cena fully embraced by the entire fanbase.

Rather amusing if innocent people aren't caught in the crossfire PWInsider: Hope they took all of Barber Shop Window's stock.

Dylan Reviews Full Shows In This Thread
Maria was brilliant in the spot Dylan mentioned: DGUSA probably had their best show ever last night. The only issue is that Shimmer ran an hour long which had a knock on effect on CHIKARA and then DGUSA. But DGUSA ploughed on and didn't shave any time off their matches despite most of them greatly needing to. Ricochet/Tozawa and Super Smash Brothers versus EITA and Tomahawk TT were pretty special. The main event Johnny Gargano vs Shingo seems to be really polarising as it went excessively to some, they a zillion near falls even by DGUSA standards telling the story Gargano couldn't beat Shingo until Gargano went into his trunks and got athletic tape and choked out Shingo with the referee unaware. Johnny after the match cut his standard babyface show end promo like nothing happened to a chorus of boos. I was a big fan of it even just for the fact it freshens up Gargano.

2013 Indymania Weekend
ROH was a great show with one really strong match in Mike Elgin vs Jay Lethal and a great story being told of Jay Briscoe finally winning the World title - liberally borrowing from Mankind's first title win. However if you were watching live the otherwise excellent stream cut out for the main event run in and eventual pinfall. Speaking of streams cutting out EVOLVE was just a mess started 30 minutes later due to technical issues. Then would cut out all over the place. The show itself was fine can't rag on the performances but the booking of the tournament was SO shitty with screwy finishes and the final didn't feel like a climax at all. Shimmer only just finished similar show to ROH a stand out match between Hamada and Athena and a satisfying title win by Cheerleader Melissa over Sweet Sayara.

Dave Meltzer stuff
Also Dave had a terrible week in his personal life as he explained on the board. What happened? Reid Flair obviously. But he went into a lot of heavy stuff about worries about some friends of his of varying degrees. Dave rarely shows his hand on that side of him as most of us know but he seems to have had a trying time recently.

Reid Flair dead at 24
Because that like everything else in these peoples lives would have been all over the tv, internet, message boards, dressing rooms on nc indies where Im at constantly & everywhere else people talk & gossip. Bruce Mitchell is too and he said he has been in serious lock down style rehab in the past. Meltzer used to refer to a serious monthly outgoing Ric had that was personal that stretched him financially on a month to month type basis.

New Truly Independent ECW Documentary
You can order it from here like you would any other DVD: http://www.barbedwirecity.com/store/index....b1637c44fd39492 Johnny has been very generous in terms of uploading bonus footage for Kickstarter members too. More than any other project that I am a backer of by a long mile.

Listening to the latest MLWRadio and they dropped the bomb that the Observer now comes in an envelope! Due to a change in US postal regulations. End of an era.

Seems like the Bully Ray's vile homophobic comments to a fan story is turning into the Mass Transit situation among the Wrestling media. Dave Scherer: Wade Keller via Twitter: Just in time for Johnny P's documentary release.
