"Alright, the EWE thing from as far as I've been told has more to do than with just the use of one wrestler. The shows were horrible. They were only drawing thirty or so people. From what I've been told, itall had something to do with the promoter himself. JWS isn't doing toowell either, as last I was told, they could only get seven people to work their shows. I'm sure they'll end up shutting down soon enough,with or without Sammy Hall stepping in."
----I got the above in the e-mail this morning. Interesting. Does it matter whether you draw 10 or 30 people when it comes to the commish?? Missouri Athletic Commission eliminated the small time wrestling promotions a few years back by charging $150 per show for the commish to show up and every show had to have a commish there. They had only one or two commishs working, so if there was a major show, then you could not have your show, because commishs would be there. It is all about money.
----I am all about free enterprise, but if shows are not drawing 50 people, why not combo a few of these shows and use the good talent?? Problem is that egos are so bad at some places that if they can’t work, they are wrestling because it their promotion. This kills it for everyone that runs a good show. If a fan goes to a shit show full of pot belly guys my age that don’t know how to work, then they might not go back. And, then “wrestling” in general is judged by that shit show. Then they spend their money only when the WWE or TNA come to town. And some of promoters want to know why you can’t draw??
