You mean like the fans claim that every show is?

Every PWG show is one of PWG's best shows?

No, like Excalibur and Rick Knox and people that are at every PWG show. Obviously PWG always gets a good reaction, but this just seemed more than usual and from more sources.
Either way, it's sure to be a good show.

If the belts are on the line during the tournament(which I assume they will be) I can see a title change.

Nick is in New Japan for the start of Best of the Super Juniors & Matt's wife is expecting their 2nd child, so they weren't going to be there anyway.

The tournament looks really good. The non-tournament matches look solid as well. Should be a lot of fun.

Cage in a World Title match is surprising, but I'm okay with that.
I agree on a Tag Title change soon, especially with the recent influx of new teams.

Speaking of which, are World's Cutest Tag Team defending the titles in the tournament, or are they not on the line?

Wouldn't argue that. The fact that they beat The Young Bucks in their first match as a Tag Team says a lot. They're my favorites to win also.

What is deal with Willie Mack ? Is there heat with Willie and PWG ? You would think Willie he be on every PWG. Mack is a non fly in , he is over and great in the ring .

Also is there a reason California wrestlers are hardly booked by PWG anymore ? Ryan Taylor . Are not Goodtime , Yuma , Ryan Taylor and Scorpio Sky are still wrestling ? Also guys like Jeff Cobb and Timothy Thatcher are never book ?

Nothing against the Beaver Boys, Team Tremendous , etc , , but some of the California based talent is just as good or better and they do require an airline ticket. Curious .

Also Chuck Taylor is not booked for the next show , he should be on every show if available.

Willie Mack is a better draw than any of these new guys they are bringing. No one knows if guys like Thatcher and Cobb will draw they have never been booked by PWG. Nothing wrong with PWG booking some of the top California talent. Makes to much business sense.

Thatcher would be the worst fit in PWG.

Agree about RockNES Monsters and Mack though, surprised they weren't brought back to help cover ROH leaving cracks.

Also, PWG sells out every time to an illegal level. They don't exactly need boosts to draws.

Right , PWG sellouts every time. My point was that the PWG bottom line would improve if they could eliminate a few airline tickets and/or hotel bills by booking local talent. PWG would lower their break point if they book a few local guys. They are only using two California guys , Joey Ryan and Brian Cage. They got to be spending a small fortune on airline tickets.

I wholeheartedly disagree with you both. Thatcher has gotten over everywhere he's gone, wrestling guys like Strong, Sabre Jr., Hero, Drake Younger, Etc.

I was live for Zack Sabre Jr vs. Timothy Thatcher in NYC, and if this were booked in PWG, they would tear the house down again.

For gods sake, they keep booking Drew Gulak, who has a considerably more boring style than Thatcher.
