ILisSTILLgood 8 Report post Posted October 28, 2020 Okay I'm half joking here but I'm having a beer after work and thought that there should exist a wrestling league like other sports....the New york grapplers, the california granbys, the chicago joey gilberts! Meets, playoffs, sponsporships. Hey a guy can dream! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LJB 2,093 Report post Posted October 28, 2020 pro leagues have been tried before... in the past, our wrestlers have not wanted to wrestle... FLO has been offering real money and the wrestlers are starting to come around... even if it just coming out of "retirement" to get a paycheck... there is a glimmer of hope... 4 Mphillips, ILisSTILLgood, fadzaev2 and 1 other reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wrestlefan11 10 Report post Posted October 29, 2020 I really like what flo is doing with the tournament format. I think that is something that could take off. I am not a fan of the card model for pro wrestling. One match lacks a little bit of intensity. If the cards were best out of 3 it would be better. RTC duals could be one of the best ways to have a pro wrestling season. That is tough though because some RTCs only have a few guys at them. If there was a way to get full line ups, an idea could be to start smal, 4 locations....State College, Columbus, Oklahoma, and Iowa. Places that have the best fan attendance for college wrestling (post covid). Build a following and a fun environment. 2 Mphillips and ILisSTILLgood reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mphillips 1,808 Report post Posted October 29, 2020 FLO already has events scheduled through December. I believe it's, 'taken' off. 1 ILisSTILLgood reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wrestlefan11 10 Report post Posted October 29, 2020 They have a 150 pound bracket coming soon too. Have they announced who is in it yet? I know on FRL they said they were reaching out to some big names....im think Yanni, Zane and maybe JO Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wrestlefan11 10 Report post Posted October 29, 2020 You can in Nittany Lion doing their events and HWC doing an event. Hopefully this keeps up in the spring Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not a bad concept but horrible the fact that it was pre-recorded. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ILisSTILLgood 8 Report post Posted November 1, 2020 All great ideas in here. I did get rokfin for the NLWC, but now the HWC event is on track? But at least some of it is free? IDk maybe FLO is just the way to go right now. I would have liked to see the 8 man 195 pound. I would like to see them continue the tournament style matches, as well as the cards. They do lack any sort of flash, but it is what it is. Maybe stuff like RTC vs RTC would keep guys wrestling after college. I feel like we lose a lot of guys who could blossom after college, because a lot of people quit and go coach or enter the job field. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
