Posted September 7, 201411 yr comment_5623160 I can't say it was good. I can say it was a lot better than it was, and better than I thought I would get to see tonight. I went to my local/regional Indy and it wasn't bad. Wasn't actually good, but it really wasn't bad. And, best of all, it really was fun. XWA started about 12ish years ago as a shitty hardcore show in an even shittier bar in Saint John, New Brunswick. It was essentially a backyard fed that moved indoors. Over the years, they grew to the point they gave a full tour route, hitting each town once a month year round. I've been to a few shows in the past, and while I found them fun nights out, that was probably more about not seeing decent live wrestling in 4 or 5 years than it was the quality of the product. But then tonight.....they all got better. Not great, but something happened over the last year or so since I'd seen a shown that moved them from "guys pretending to do what wrestlers do on tv" to legit, if limited, pro wrestlers. A tight two hours, a well spent $15, and a pleasure to watch a tiny Indy grow a little.
