No worries. Glad to help!
If you're interested in more indie stuff, there are also streaming services that feature that sort of thing, though I haven't delved too deeply into them. Fite.tv, IndependentWrestling.tv, and highspots.tv are the ones I'm aware of.
EVE does post their shows on YouTube, but some require a paid subscription. https://youtube.com/@prowrestlingeve
AEW's women's division has been on a steady upswing. It hasn't had the kind of spotlight that WWE gives their women, but they have some great talent there and they've been telling some engaging stories.
I'm honestly not sure where else to go for American women's wrestling these days. EVE has been putting on some amazing shows, but they're UK based. Still very worth checking out.
You know, I've been thinking about how AEW keeps trying and failing to "restore the feeling". And I think the big reason they can't is that "the feeling" had little to do with the in-ring product at all.
AEW, when it first started, was the promotion for wrestlers by wrestlers. The Elite were the faces of the promotion (hell, the place is named after them), and Tony Khan was more of a silent partner than anything. As TK has taken more of an active, public-facing role in the promotion, it has detracted from that feeling. He may be a wrestling superfan, but he's not a wrestler, and he damn sure isn't The Elite. As well, there's still the shadow of CM Punk that never quite went away. AEW used to be the place where everyone got along and worked to create the best show they could without the politics, but Punk destroyed that image, whether he cracked that foundation or merely exposed the cracks that were already there.
I still love AEW, it's still the only promotion I watch on a weekly basis, but it's undeniable that they've lost something important. And I don't know if it's something they could ever get back. I certainly don't see how they could.
Having stomped my feet and stormed off from TNA in protest of Tessa Blanchard, I think that in addition to trying to get into Stardom, I'm gonna start checking out NXT.
I'm gonna be real with you; if you are swearing off TNA because of your moral objections, then you should probably also avoid any WWE product. Vince may be gone, but it's still tied to some absolutely horrible people.
Assuming fair elections even happen. I'm guessing the FEC is on the list to get DOGEd, at which point all bets are off.
They are our enemies.
Hell yeah. I'm down for more Megasus.
Bitwarden is a good password manager. Can't help with the rest.
If I refused to patronize every business that did that, I'd likely starve to death. Which is incredibly sad.
I do try to avoid the worst offenders, though.
I'm honestly curious to see what happens for Pride month this year. I'm pretty sure WWE will be sitting it out. Or maybe bringing in a gay wrestler to sing "Do you really want to hurt me" to The Undertaker again, since everyone is reverting to their worst, most hateful impulses now.
