It's a New Day - Yes, It Is! 5 years ago today, this website made its first post. Inside a disillusioned wrestling fan, a fire was rekindled. Independent Wrestling reignited that fandom within me and I stoked those fires long and strong through this "blog" and the multimedia live programming it would eventually morph into. I dove headfirst in and e... ventually dragged my closest friend with me. What a ride!

More than all of that - the majority of people that read/watched/listened to our content were the independent wrestlers themselves. We know this to be fact. No offense to those guys or gals (who we mostly loved, by the way!) but... We wanted other FANS to watch us! Being a fan is where it's at. There is nothing else like it. The ...Read More
