With NJPW dropping their promotion over here along with countless promotions popping up, it's safe to say that there's too much fukking wrestling going on for one man to keep up with:dwillhuh:. Is this really a wrestling boom or it's just a soon collapse due to how niche' the product truly is? Not that I'm complaining because there's nothing wrong with this carny industry thriving in this miserable era, but is there any type of longevity to the process of exposure? Or am I overthinking it :ld:

this ain't the old school anymore, it's a new age and everybody with an internet connection has access to everything

this is the streaming era and with a couple click of some buttons you can watch any promotion on the whole planet but does that mean you have to? fukk nah

watch what you wanna watch and KIM, trying to watch everything is hustling backwards IMO :yeshrug:

Who says you have to keep up with it all though?

True:ehh:. I been Impact, CHIKARA, occasionally DDT, and currently NWA Power. While the options are there, over saturation could come into play with all of these promotions :picard:. Especially, if folks start to smarten up and realize that they are watching the same damn actors and movies, but with different budgets.

It just means you can't cry about wrestling being shyt. :manny:

Too many promotions that have different styles are starting to get some real traction here in America with WWE's gradual decline. :lupe:

AEW is on the come up and now you got NJ trying to get a slice. NJ can really eat too if they do a lot of shows on the West Coast. SacTown got a real bad taste in their mouth from HIAC. :huhldup:

I might be in the minority, but I honestly think Lucha Libre is vastly underutilized here in the states. CMLL/AAA should have been had some type of way for nikkas to get their hands on the product on a consistent basis. Only time I ever really hear about luchadors down there is when they come over to other promotions due to some agreement (Rush/Sombra/Dragon Lee/Pentagon/etc). Then again, CMLL is conservative as fukk and straight up bullheaded in a lot of cases with their practices. :manny:

It's not much different from how it was last year. In October 2018, we had RAW, SD, NXT, MLW, ROH, LU, WOW, Impact, with NJPW doing dates in America.

Now we have RAW, SD, NXT, MLW, ROH, Impact, NWA, AEW, and NJPW doing live dates in America. Most people just gonna watch RAW, SD, and maybe AEW or NXT if they feel like it while the rest will be ignored like they were last year :yeshrug:.

Also, I don't think those NJPW USA dates will amount to anything more than "Road To" shows that add content to New Japan World.

Not worth watching weekly shows. That's why I just watch the ppv. Dynamite only one I'll watch weekly. I can just watch WWE ppvs and get caught up and most of the time it's the same fukkery as the last one with maybe a few new matches. I don't follow NJPW heavy except for major events. I saw the G1 and just started today on the last major event from a few weeks back. Once I finish with that I'll check out the impact from last night. So many options to stream these shows anyways. Better that way.

Right now I watch MLW, NJPW, NWA, AEW, Raw, Smackdown. I’ll DVR NXT this week cause I wanna see that triple threat with Keith Lee, Dijak and Strong. I don’t get AXS so I just watch the IMPACT highlights on YT.
