Eh, more than likely, Zandig will let us know all about it tomorrow. Him and/or Rebel. Speaking of which, how in the hell are you able to get ahold of Zandig whenever, Barber, when Zack Malibu here, who has a tape deal with Zandig and can't get ahold of him, and Zandig's own wrestlers can never get ahold of him? Explain that to me.

I can't help it - your post strikes me as really hypocritical. Back during the Philly wars, you were one of the most outspoken on this board against XPW's "invasion." Those posts can still be found by going to the Search section and looking through this board's archives. You said that XPW had no right to begin a "war" and try to put CZW out of business, and suddenly now you're saying ROH does. Please clarify, because either I've misinterpreted you which is probably the case or something's going on here. I'm not trying to make this into a flame war, and it better not degenerate into one. If it does, it's NOT my fault because I'm stating this as politely as I possibly can. There's a difference between saying that somebody has a RIGHT to and that somebody has the POTENTIAL too. What I posted there is something that is a realistic fear in my mind; that ROH has the POTENTIAL to put CZW out of business. It may just be paranoia on my part, but I feel that if ROH plays it's cards right and CZW doesn't rebound, that CZW could be out of business before the end of the year. More than anything else, CZW has failed to make any new starts in the past year who could be considered "main event guys," i.e. someone you could put the world belt on and run the promotion around. The two heir-apparents to the throne, Mondo and Acid, have left the company. Who's left? Ian Knoxx and Chris Cash are getting the biggest pushes as homegrown talents, but they aren't ready. I'm not saying that I want ROH to put CZW out of business, it's the last thing I want. I'm just saying that ROH could potentially put CZW out of business with this latest development.

Just a little fantasy/reality/business booking: Right now, if I'm Rob Feinstein, I'm going to take this opportunity to push CZW out of business. You've got the guy Zandig desperately wanted to make a future star out of (Acid), you've got pretty much the only people who would be loyal to a different US company than yours (Homicide might still be loyal to JAPW, but with the joint show they ran, that matter can easily be worked around), you've got the fanbase that's expanding the quickest, with maybe PWG being the exception, you've succeeded more in your first two years than any other company in recent memory, damn near everything is in your favor. What you do is you start to book dates that CZW also runs. You eliminate the talent sharing deal with Zandig, since it no longer benefits you. You force the talent to choose which company to side with, CZW or ROH. This isn't 2002 when ROH first formed and CZW was the big company in Philly. There's no third party to get in the way, with XPW dead and MLW bailing back to Florida after dipping their toes in the Philly water. ROH is the dominant force in the indys today, and you can use that to your advantage. Maff and Homicide would stay with ROH, as they were brought to CZW by the Backseats, Deranged and Azrael are already gone, Shelley and Jacobs can probably be bought off of CZW, Hero's gone to England but you never wanted him anyway (why I don't know), the only person who probably wouldn't jump ship is Sonjay, and he's not a major part of your fed anyway. (I'm not counting one-shot guys like Nick Gage in ROH and Justin Credible in CZW.) You cripple CZW's roster, you start taking away their fanbase by running superior shows with superior talent, force CZW to start using their students more who clearly aren't ready, and you can do all of this without having to resort to using underhanded tactics. If it's at all possible, try to find a way to get the overseas relationships that Zandig has, since those are pumping in money for him. Italy hated hardcore and won't stand for ultraviolence, so if ROH could run a regular show over there for whomever that money mark was, they'd make a killing. I don't want this to happen, but it's a very realistic possibility and if RF is as shrewd a businessman as he should be, he'd jump on this opportunity and drive his biggest competition out of business. 3PW isn't a threat and won't be if they stay the way they are, MLW is a concern money-wise but they balked at running Philly already, though if CZW is gone they might try again. No one else is big enough to really compete. Get a good TV deal (even if it would cut into tape sales, it expands the word and the fanbase more than just the Internet and street teams alone would), and we've got a legitimate #3 promotion on our hands.

Fans Bring the Weapons match added to the card, participants unknown. 3 way tag has been cancelled, dunno if Homicide/Dan Maff will still take on the H8 Club. No Jacobs/Shelley with Shelley's injury.

3-WAY DANCE The Backseat Boyz VS The H8 Club VS Dan Maff & Homicide GRUDGE MATCH Jimmy Jacobs VS Alex Shelley Joey Ryan VS Jimmy Rave TAG-TEAM WAR Ruckus & Sabian VS Joker & Chris Cash CZW JUNIOR HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE MATCH Reefer VS Sonjay XTREME STRONG STYLE TOURNAMENT Excalibur VS B-Boy SoCal in the house with Joey Ryan and Excalibur. I've never seen them work, but I've heard nothing but good things about them. Now, if we can get Zandig to put the belt on the line (and lose it...), the show will be even better.

I see Dr. Tom lurking. Kill it Tom, kill it.

Christ no. Gig bitch gig.

You could eat whatever you wanted from MickeyD's, or from anywhere, as long as you're willing to put in the exercise to burn all those calories. So, eat the way he did, expect to walk all day. And fuck sleeping.

In all seriousness: http://rohwrestling.com/features/pwbelt.html

Eazy E. - Real Muthafuckin' G's.

It better fucking involve at least three out of the following list: Aliens IRS No less then three sororities Pizza Hut 101 Dalmations Dr. Dre & Ed Lover Ninjas Hardcore Ninjas Zack Malibu

I don't even think New Jack can save this anymore. It's on life support, pull the plug and let it flatline. Dump rawmvp while you're at it, his usefullness is done.

Great to Excalibur full time on the East Coast if that happens, but what happens to PWG then, since he is 1/6 owner?

All we need is this guy to make this thread better.

This is something else that could have been much better had New Jack done a run-in. Other examples: The Sound of Music Super Bowl XXXVIII's Halftime Show pre-boobie. Any State of the Union.

I'm officially in the "throw crap at the wall and hope it sticks" phase, a.k.a. try to stay out of the basement.

Whitmer and Shelley are just about locks, IMO. As for Hero, unless CZW snatches him up when MLW flies him in, don't count on it.

Bumpy mcbump bump. Nothing new added to the card (shock, eh?) but I think World-1 is running at Viking Hall before this show, so it wouldn't surprise me if a couple of those guys hang around and work the CZW show. Don't go expecting guys like Masato Tanaka and Steve Corino though.

Got too many guards, I need a F, F/C, G/F maybe. Finley isn't on the table unless I get a great deal, everyone else is available, including Stoudamire.

I don't see it as that great a game. Both teams were fairly underwhelming in the first half, coming alive towards the end of the first half/begining of the second half. Both teams made mistakes that bit them in the ass, Vinateri's misses and Brady's miscommunication INT, as well as Fox's decisions to go for two. I'll give credit to the Pats, they have a great D and you don't win as many in a row as they do by fluke alone. Course, when Carolina was in range with about two minutes left, I just started saying "too much time on the clock, Vinateri's gonna do it again.' Better Super Bowl than last year (like that was hard to achieve), but not as good as two years ago, and the Rams/Titans One Yard Short is the best in recent history.

I'm even sorrier for watching it.

New Jack, get the FUCK in here. Kill that busted ass white boy.

I am not even close to lovin' it.
