It's actually run largely by Samu now. It's actually two promotions now - Afa moved to Florida a few years back and still operates WXW there. Samu continues to run the Pennsylvania version as WXW C4.

Tonight, live at 8pm EDT, it's Time Limit Draw! Check out the show at http://grug.tv/live-feeds/time-limit-draw/ - tonight's panel includes Matt, Irish Kev, and Eric from the usual crew, plus NJ/NY indy guy Sweet Bobby G, and filling in for Joey Image, Vin Gerard's roommate Tyler! Have a topic for the guys to discuss? Leave it here! And watch us live tonight!

I don't see how it could be anything other than Jericho/Fandango, as the whole build for Fandango's debut has been him backing out of his debut. It makes the most sense for him to lose instantly, as if he knows that's going to happen, and that's why he's been ducking his matches this whole time.

Going live RIGHT NOW! Click the link in the first post to watch the show! And leave potential topics for us to discuss!

This Thursday night, we go live with another episode of Time Limit Draw! The show airs at 8pm Eastern at http://grug.tv/live-feeds/time-limit-draw/ (last week's show is currently on the page - the new episode will be linked in that space before we go on the air), and this week, Image, Eric, Irish Kev and I will be joined by NY/NJ indy guy Sweet Bobby G! We're always looking for topic suggestions, so if you have any ideas, post them here and we may use them! And don't forget, you can always get the latest info on the show through our Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/TLDonGRUG) or on Twitter - @TLDonGRUG!

The Charlie Bucket/Grandpa Joe stuff comes much, much later in the episode, and if you're a Grandpa Joe fan, it's a topic I'd avoid. And Image was stoked to hear from you (indirectly), Johnny. In fact, his exact response was "Yay!"

Even though the show isn't fully about professional wrestling, I wanted to share the new podcast starring myself, NJ indy worker Joey Image, and NEPA locals Irish Kev Spencer and Eric Eichhorn. The show, Time Limit Draw, debuted this past Thursday night, and it has a simple premise - basically, think Pardon the Interruption, just not about sports, but instead about anything at all. It runs every Thursday, live at 8pm, on the Growing Up Geek Podcast Network. This week, on our debut episode, we talk about a wide variety of topics - wrestling-wise, we discuss War Games, Big Josh, and the idea of pay-to-play on the indies. Outside the ring, we tackle major issues like rodeo clowns, why Grandpa Joe is a bastard who's trying to do more harm than good to Charlie Bucket, and Image's Mustard and Rock Farm.

I had completely forgotten about the MOO MATCH OF THE WEEK. Sadly, there are no clips on YouTube that I could find of Dusty mooing through a replay for me to relive and just laugh at. It was so awesomely random - I would have loved to have been in the production meeting (assuming that one even happened) where Dusty said "you know, I have this great idea - I'm going to moo on TV," just to see what response it got.

I lived in northern New Jersey until the tail end of the summer of 1990. At that point, having cable in our house was spotty - sometimes we did, sometimes we didn't IIRC. Even when we didn't have cable, we still had access to wrestling through the rabbit ears, and with that we got NWA's syndicated programming (I believe it was Worldwide) on NYC's Channel 11 on Saturday mornings, which would then lead right into Superstars at noon on Fox 5 (followed by American Gladiators, of course). And then we had Wrestling Challenge on Sundays at noon as well. From there, we moved to the Poconos, where if you didn't have cable, you didn't have TV, so at that point we got everything that was available at the time - TBS on Saturday mornings, nights, and Sunday nights, ESPN on weekdays, WWF on Monday nights, etc.

Thanks for the input, guys. I definitely like Yo-Yo's idea with the progressive pot for guessing the next entrant - maybe we'll incorporate that this year.

So, I'm looking for some new ideas. Every year, at the Royal Rumble gathering at my apartment, we do a standard Royal Rumble pool - everyone throws $2 in and picks numbers at random, and the person that draws the number of the winner gets the cash. It keeps everyone interested in the match as they groan and say "aww man, I got David Otunga/Hornswoggle/Jim Duggan AGAIN!?!", and makes it fun for the non-fans who come just to hang out. What we're looking to do this year is maybe change things up a little bit, or at least modify the current pool that we always do. So I turn to you, the fine folks of PWO - do you guys partake in any kind of pools for the Rumble? And if you do, how does your pool work?

Does Alex Reynolds still do the thing where he has a butler come out before he goes to the ring to wipe down the ring ropes? I always loved that part of his act.

The one thing that really surprised me here with all the numbers posted is how the NWO didn't bump up PPV sales. In fact, even though it was a slight drop, the buyrates still were lower in the two months following Hogan's turn.

What really gets me here is that someone would really name a move "Submission Impossible," which basically implies that the move sucks and would never get you the win in a match.
