| I would like to send out congrats to Neo Spirit Pro Wrestling out of Niagra Falls. Why you ask? Because I recently was flipping through a P.W.I. Magazine and saw an article on NEO by Dan Murphy. It takes an act of god to get coverage of the indies let alone Ontario indies in a major wrestling magazine. So my hat goes of to NEO because they bust their butts to put on a good show and have a great following. | ||||||||||||
| I wish the wrestling media and the media in general would realize that there is more out there than the WWE. I can understand the regular media being ignorant to the fact that there is more than the WWE out there but it is inexcusable for the wrestling media. It is bad enough to have the WWE shoved down out throats by the regular media, but when you have the wrestling media shoving it down your throat as well, especially when it is the local wrestling media it doesn't help the industry as a whole. | ||||||||||||
| My point is that people see and hear enough about the WWE with its seven plus hours of T.V. each week and its extensive marketing of their product, so why not do some coverage of the indies. Especially the local wrestling media, they should be pushing their local independents more than anyone. | ||||||||||||
| OPW and the rest of the independent wrestling promotions are heading into their summer schedule, so go check out your local indy wrestling event. For Ontario and N.Y. indy wrestling coverage check out www.nodqwrestling.com and websites like www.geocities.com/bruiser_bob007/main.htm for Ontario indy coverage. | ||||||||||||
