Would having Stickland on this show really be hurting any other companies business? Seems like all this accomplished was fans have to miss out and Shane misses a payday... I'm sure Strickland is a good wrestler, but him not being on this show does not make this show any worse. Outside of Morrison and Gail Kim, I like most of the fans, could care less about all of these "stars". Posting that a wrestler believes another company is more important than PWB is really dumb and makes PWB look bad because they are publicizing these guys would rather give up a payday than piss off another company. Why give another company, that appears to have issues with PWB, any publicity?

He may have brought in the CZW fans, not sure how many of those exist, but could have boosted ticket sales. I can't see why he couldn't have just been Killshot on this show, working under his lucha underground character, what's the big deal this sounds like something TNA-holes or WWEvil would do... thumbs up??, THUMBS DOWN!! I could care either way. Not sure if you've noticed or not but booking all of these "names" has not brought more fans to the shows. In fact, i know quite a few people, who no longer attend shows because the shows seem to have lost their PWB touch. I am not a fan of the other company's product and am getting quite disillusioned with PWB becoming AAW 2.0. No thanks. I understand wrestling is a business. If your business deals with entertaining fans, why wouldn't you try to cater to your fans and strive to put out the best product targeted at your fanbase( which was quite healthy)rather than changing everything trying to copy somebody else and cater to a totally different crowd. You can pinpoint when the crowds started to shrink to when PWB put more an emphasis on Lucha Underground / indie superstars rather than their own unique talent roster with good storylines. If anything, PWB is starting to look like TNA with their desire to copy another group and book the same talent because it worked for that company.

I find it hilarious that any Indy fed/promoter can "force" any Indy talent to not work anywhere else or not. Guys need to work where they can get work. It's their career. Period.
That said, any promoter has the right to shape his/her talent roster as he/she wishes. I haven't always liked the super Indy feel of AAW since Lynam passed, but the sizes of the houses don't lie. They've always tried to keep the roster unique and not like other local feds, though you have seen Freelance guys on AAW cards.
I'm not sure what they told Strickland, but Strickland obviously must have felt he could get more money, exposure, experience, etc., working there than Blitz. Unfortunate for Blitz. I just hope AAW makes the cancellation worth his while.

Or you make an exception for Mundo cause he's a name & he's not there every month.

Johnny Mundo is also Johnny Mundo and not Shane Strickland whom I enjoy but isn't anything close to a draw. AAW has the right to want exclusivity even though I think it's f**k**g stupid to pass it off as creating a unique vision when it's just booking the same crop of super indie guys as PWG, Beyond, WrestleCircus, etc. That being said AAW got my $15 tonight. Tickets are on Groupon by the way

Yah that's why I can't see why Shane Strickland could not just work this show under his lucha underground gimmick like everyone else... He has done about the same amount of aaw shows as Morrison has. Also Blitz is on track to only run about 11 shows this year, they took last month off and January also to revamp and promote the new product, and they almost never run the same days either... Is he a big part of the aaw storylines? I also see he is headlining the upcoming MLW ippv. I think its just a matter of time till the wwe comes calling.

Why does Stanpiro keep steering this thread to a discussion of AAW? 1) we are not in the wrestling business so none of us know what the relationship between the promoters and wrestlers really is. 2) If i read correctly Shane Strickland chose to cancel his booking on this show. If he's not under contract to AAW or Blitz it seems it's his choice where he is going to perform. Maybe he heard bad things about working for PWB. We are not privy to that.
Stoshpiro, if you really feel the need to troll and try to stir the pot, brother, please go start it in another thread.

What is the title of thread Stoshley? Nowhere does it mention AAW in the title. You 'reported' Strickland. Then you keep returning to it using your 'insider' knowledge of what is happening behind the scenes. Make your own thread about it someplace else. Pretty common sense here. This thread is to discuss the PWB show. Go make your own troll 'turf war' thread seperate from this one. Then tou can have a full debate with?all your alter egos, maybe Claude or Skyline will make appearances.
