    Brutal. I guess i'll go to one of the ROH shows and that'll be it. I'm meeting up with Alan4L at some point, so maybe i'll go to another show for that or maybe to meet LARRY if he makes the trip one night.

    Yo Biss, what is the Austin crew planning on besides the Meet Me There premier?
    only thing I want to see for sure is Hero vs Tanaka

      Card isn't appetizing enough to take the drive, friendo.

          All cards updated.

          Every single show is disappointing on some level. Probably the least hyped i've been in years.

          WrestleMania looks like shit, but it'll be fun seeing Daniel Bryan on top of the wrestling world.

          (Not) Dragon Gate USA has been saved by the late additions of Low Ki, Bad Influence, & Masato Tanaka, but no Dragon Gate talent is such a massive letdown.

          Kazuchika Okada in a shitty tag match in inexcusable, but Invasion Attack has three or four other killer matches including the best feud in wrestling today, Tetsuya Naito vs Tomohiro Ishii.

          Lance Hoyt vs Chris Masters is the sleeper match of the weekend.

          Same can be said for ACH vs Andrew Everett.

          WTF match is Sid Vicious vs Doug Gilbert.

          Masato Tanaka faces Kevin Steen, and then Chris Hero. Wow. Both should be awesome.

          Mike Dell gets some good exposure defending his "other" title on the Wrestling Odyssey show.

          Would anybody be shocked if Adam Cole vs Jay Briscoe Ladder War is the best match of the weekend?

          Bad Influence are facing mystery opponents on two different shows on the same night.

          Andre Memorial Battle Royal? Pffffft, how about that JUNKYARD DOG MEMORIAL BATTLE ROYAL???

          Bryan, Hero, Tanaka, Gargano, Ricochet are the best bets to steal the weekend.

            Optimistically assuming Bryan is a main event level guy more often than not from hereon out, Punk's decision to walk away when he did could turn out to be one of the most important turn of events in recent WWE history.

              When Stone Cold left (both from injury and by his own volition) it opened up things for the entire upper half. Whether it was Rock, HHH, Jericho, Kurt Angle...they got their chances during time when Austin was away.

              In a much lesser sense, with Punk leaving, it opens the floor for someone to take his spot.

                Not exactly the same though as far as when Austin walked out in 2002. The plan all along was to push Brock and they stuck to it.

                Here, if Punk doesn't walk out, Bryan's either working Sheamus or in the battle royal based on what we know.

                  Six hour drive. Looks like my most likely path is Wrestling Odyssey & DGUSA Fri, and then ROH & DGUSA on Sat.

                  Toughest decision was DGUSA or ROH on Friday night. Both cards are very good. Really wanted to catch the Mid South/TCW deal, but the ROH & DGUSA shows blow it away. LOL @ WrestleCon.

                  I'll never understand people who do Axxess, Hall of Fame, the autograph deal at WrestleCon, the Marty DeRosa comedy gimmick, Mickie James singing, etc instead of seeing actual wrestling shows. To each his own, I suppose.

                    Punk leaving moved the Bryan coronation up a month or two. They were going to do it anyway, but what Punk leaving does for Bryan is gives him the boost of doing it at Mania on the biggest & most memorable stage. "Classic" moments don't resonate at B-shows. I mean, name one historical moment from Extreme Rules.

                          That WrestleCon show looks like something Fire Pro would fart out if you hit random. What a terrible looking lineup.

                            My brother just texted me saying Foley is on his flight down to Nawlins and he met him going through security.

                              Probably doing some pre-show shit. They have like 5 hours of crap going on before and after Mania.

                                I laughed while putting together the post for VOW, it's fucking horrendous. Anyone who wastes a minute on THAT card with all you're going to get this weekend is out of your mind.

                                ROH brought their A-game this weekend IMO. I'm most excited for their offerings.
