PCW, WFX Thoughts and MORE!

I've been neglecting the blog lately so this might one of those long ones...

Firstly, PCW's Rising Spirit: Enter The Dragon.

I want to thank everyone who came out and supported us. It was a great crowd. I thought it was a very good event as well. We started at about 9:05 and ended around 12:10 or so which is an accomplishment.

Ultimo Dragon and Brian Christopher were class acts. I didn't even get much of an opportunity to speak with Ultimo and, really, he's the type of guy who doesn't need a lot of attention. Brian was his usual funny, out going self. When I mentioned there would be streamers in the main event, he thought I said strippers and I've never seen a more excited guy!

Ultimo and Mentallo had a really good match. I agree with some that it was a bit on the short side, but we were running a bit over time anyway. It was a quality match. I am sure those two will be seeing a lot more of each other. Mentallo can hang with anyone in the business and I was personally proud to be able to make that match happen for him. He deserved it.

Brian and David Dixon had a good match as well. It was exactly what I expected it to be. I think Dixon definitely held up his end of the deal in that one. Brian is hilarious.

Match of the night goes to Mike Angels and Kenny Omega. Poetry in motion as always with those two. I for one would love to see a rematch.

I'd like to thank Mike Davidson and WFX for their gracious assistance with our show. Here's to a long and prosperous relationship.

Speaking of which, I was fortunate enough to be asked to help out behind the scenes at the WFX event. It was a big time show with a huge crowd and some mega stars performing. I'll always remember the pop Jerry Lawler got when he came out and the look on HIS face when it happened. It reminded me a bit of the first time we had Samoa Joe in town and the pop was rocking the LID to the point even Joe was taken aback.

I left right before the finish to the Rumble so I did not see what happened, though I understand it has been heavily criticised. All I can say is, I have faith that when the story is fully told, everything will make sense.

I enjoyed debating with Virgil whether or not the nWo theme, which he wanted to use, constituted licensed material...lol

Next week I will break my vow of never seeing a "pro" hockey game at the MTS Centre (or arena) until the NHL comes back. As part of a work outing, I'll be at the Moose game next Sunday as they face the Baby Leafs.

If I was Cliff Fletcher, I'd send down to the minors anyone who refused to waive their no-trade clause. See how they like playing for the Marlies.

I was surprised to see Mitt Romney quit the US Presidential race today. I heard one of his advisors saying that he's a young guy and intends to have a long career in the Rebublican party. I wonder if perhaps there has been a backroom deal for him to endorse John McCain in return for being named the Vice-Presidential nominee.

I changed my mind and am now not a supporter of Obama. I'm pulling for Hilary.

In case it wasn't already clear, TJ Brooks is no longer with PCW. I don't dislike him, but the way left sure as hell rubbed me the wrong way. He wasn't man enough to talk to me about his gripe and now he lost a good gig. Not sure where he'll go from here...back to RME I would assume.

Speaking of TJ's...Bratt is not, nor will he ever be, associated with PCW again. Again, not a guy I dislike, but a few hours before a major show is not the time I need to get a terse email backing out of a show and a major angle.

I believe RCW will be holding an event on Monday, Feb. 18th which is a holiday. It should be a great event and I'll hopefully be there to enjoy it.
