ROH is holding their 17th Anniversary ROH PPV this Friday where Jay Lethal defends the ROH World Title against Matt Taven. During the press conference, Marty Scurll came out and said that he is using his title shot that he earned after winning the Survival of the Fittest Tournament at the G1 Supercard!

So Marty will face the winner of Friday's match between Lethal and Taven. I guess they will have at least one member of The Elite on the show.

i remember when pwg was the hottest thing around, now i've heard stuff about "typical indie-pwg" style match, going long for the sake of long, etc...but the card for sixteen looks good. about time mjf debuts (imagine him heeling it up after his debut victory, lights go out and fat super dragon makes an appearance and murders him with a psycho driver. place would go NUTS). weird seeing dark order/best friends especially after they just started an angle in aew (dark order has to go over to reestablish the team, maybe a beatdown and it all could carry over to aew). hey, i'm down with aew working with pwg in any way. six man lucha, flippy tag should be fun. starr/brody intrigues me. it wouldn't be a pwg anniversary show with out a ladder/guerrilla warfare match where every one kills themselves, which i see all four men doing. maybe lax win the belts and have a short term title reign since they left impact? onto bola, orange cassidy. yes.

That's a pretty sick card. Some people are talking about how down PWG is, and it's definitely not 2011 or 2016 PWG, but when stars go to NXT fairly regularly it's not always easy to replace them. But PWG still has the best of the indies.

AEW on TNT, WWE with RAW, SD, NXT, 205 Live and monthly PPVs in order for us to get our wrestling fix. Now let's add more wrestling to our calendar! Billy Corgan has announced that the NWA will begin airing weekly TV with tapings beginning in Atlanta September 30th & October 1st. No word on the arena that the tapings will take place and who will air the weekly TV episodes.

Billy Corgan said he wants to bring back studio style wrestling.

Quote:

Corgan did, however, stress the importance in his eyes of taping in front of a studio audience. “The thing that sticks out in my mind about studio wrestling, particularly in the 1970s and 1980s, was anything could really happen,” Billy explained. “You had people getting up very early in the morning, Saturday morning kids television, and it had a real feeling of chaos and anarchy. And I think that really sold to me — as a fan — that there was an element of danger and there was an element of anything could happen. I really want to bring that back to professional wrestling.”

Just saw the video and have to say i'm really interested to see what NWA can bring to the table, I always liked that style of show/wrestling better in my younger days but they had the talent to make it work. I'm not sure what all NWA has right now, I know a few people and they are pretty good so i'm looking forward to it, more options are always better.
