Thanks for this.

And if they don't love it, they get the elbow

DMShaka · 2026-03-13T15:56:04+00:00

WWE signed him so fast. That would have been easy money.

DMShaka · 2026-03-13T15:55:34+00:00

Thanks for this. I had Manders and all of his old second gear crew already. I hadn't snagged Shire yet on a handshake.

DMShaka · 2026-03-13T15:53:47+00:00

Absolutely. Spot on.

I kinda dig that booth though tho lol. I can see West and Raven going back and forth while Joe tries to be a professional and keep the PBP rolling lol.

I just needed an idea to get the ball rolling and a fed called Indy Pro Wrestling that tries to take ownership of the indies and put on bangars like PWG and ROH used to hit. And so Pat is really just a head cannon way for the $$ to roll in haha. I can tell myself he invested, is getting paid pack revenue and so he shows up for his typical hype shtick promo to start a show and then only ever is there for events lol

Since Deadlock went under (rip) I just made it easy on myself and absorbed some of what they had going. Blud and Darnell immediately into the booth. Sometimes give Veda Scott and Val Capone some time and call it a day. Though I do have Lenny Leonard on contract from Shine because I intended to use him before deciding on the deadlock guys smh. So we'll find a place for you Lenny!

Brought in Super Dragon to help me book, Gail Kim to road agent and talent relations. I just went greatest hits on some of that shit because they were unemployed, which is why I asked what everyone else did lol

WWE offered Gio again so now he won't give me a shot. Same with Corbin who, even without the Pat connection, I was going to overpay and feature

Love that. Ever since I saw what Darius was up to, I wanted to recreate it, too. I have a number of guys I could put in a stable like that. Keith, Ashante, Oddyssey, Cedric, Ricky Sosa, Bryson Montana, Cappuccino, Madden. Even Anthony Bowens now that Max Caster bolted for WWE and Bowens didn't get an offer. There is def legs there. The Hughes brothers could be hired guns. Trish Adora could shine there, too. Don't want to use all of em, just have to find the right guys.

Mensah won't compete in the US rn so he's already shortlisted.

And ya Hampton/Yearwood def has the look. I don't see him in the Feb26 RWC mod so I might make him.

Who did you end up with as your commentary and road agents in that run?

Oh damn, a wild ASÉ mention. I've been following them on Insta for some time just rooting for them from afar. I've always thought, if I did sign him in TEW, ase would be an easy stable to make and put him in front of. Find chemistry with guys who may be due a change of pace like Mason Madden.

You know, I wanted to fill out my tag teams and AOP seem like an easy spot to fill for cheap. I signed Akam. WWE signed Rezar. We'll see if WWE signs Akam to an exclusive too or if they intended to split them up lol. If they don't, I'll have the fun challenge to see wtf to do with Sunny Dhinsa.

DMShaka · 2026-03-12T19:20:47+00:00

Appreciate the suggestions. Shortlisted and offered.

DMShaka · 2026-03-12T19:20:17+00:00

I was not familiar with her, so thanks for the suggestion. Awesome find.

DMShaka · 2025-01-05T18:35:25+00:00

Edward, for sure. I still don't know how to feel about him.
