Hi everyone:
I'm new to this board and was hoping to get wrestling fans' opinions on a new promotion I am considering starting. This probably should be posted somewhere else here, but since my account is still now, I evidently cannot post new threads in the other sections.
I'm a former indy pro wrestler myself and have entertained the idea of starting a promotion for some time now. We are currently exploring ways to secure the needed capital but want fans' opinions on the concept.
We are looking to produce a high-quality weekly two hour show to be delivered over the Internet. When I say "high-quality" I mean both in the content sense and in the production sense.
The focus of the promotion will be solid, high intensity wrestling. There will be plenty of story, angles, feuds, and a few gimmicks, but they will be reality-based along the lines of true sports rivalries like Terrell Owens/Donovan McNabb. We will not book the soap opera "You got my girlfriend pregnant so I'm going to kick your ass," or "You kidnapped my dog" or "My sister had sex with the porno star" storylines. Essentially we will present pro wrestling as a sport with lots of drama, story, and high intensity action.
Here are the fundamentals of the promotion:
So my question is, would you watch?

Here are the fundamentals of the promotion:
- The promotion will be billed as a major league, not an indy.
- All shows will be delivered free over the Internet.
- No pay-per-views...ever!
- Talent will be in-house.
- Stories will be long-term, not made up as we go along or dropped after a week or two.
So my question is, would you watch?
