    Yes boss! ;)
    As for the IWW show, if both of them came out to "Just Look At Me" with Dupree doing the f*cking french tickler to it, that would be a sight.

    I do feel sorry for Conway during that gimmick, after all, who would want to be a second-rate Buff Bagwell? He still managed to pull it off well at the time. Nowhere near as bad as the gimmick Sylvan got though. Wonder Greniers plans are actually?

    I think Grenier is doing French commentary for TNA

    Ah, a Tipperary joke. Good one.

    How often in WWE do you hear chants from the fans requesting they fire the head booker? Never. TNA's most loyal fans even know they're watching ****.

    Do you know why that is? because most fans dont know who WWE's lead booker is

    Apparently in the eyes of most wrestling fans there is only one writer in wrestling (Vince Russo) and he is to blame for all the ills in the world, there is no Osama Bin Laden that **** was a Vinny Russo storyline (fire Russo!!!!!) :rolleyes:

    Russo is associated with bad booking like it or not.

    So how about that IWW?

    We try and account for no shows by making up in other ways, i.e. IwW has in the past booked other last minute talent as replacements or, more recently, when talent no-showed in Waterford we offered half-price merchandise to try and compensate.

    the half prieced merchandise was a nice gesture that night, but still didnt make up for the no shows...i know this is entirely out of iww hands..but what was poor on iww's part was it failure to announce any of the no shows bar one at all during the entire show. it was announced that reene could not make it but no mention was made of tracy smothers, carl ouelett or scorpio sky.

    as i say no shows are out of iww hands but why was no one informed?? i found the show suffered hugely as a result and does make me uncertain about attending the next iww show in cork soon, which already is weaker than the dublin date what with doug williams on that card alone.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,061 ✭✭✭leggo


    I entirely understand your concerns. In such a circumstance with multiple no-shows, we announced Dupree alone because we felt it was he who the most fans paid to see and couldn't.

    If you ever have any questions about matters like this, please don't hesitate in asking one of our show staff who will be more than happy to help as best they can (or alternatively find you someone who can answer your query).

    Again we apologise sincerely for any inconvenience caused by these matters. No shows like this are, as established, out of our hands and a completely regrettable hazard of the business. The worst part of this is that most of the time, we only know of these no-shows by the time it is too late to inform fans (i.e. we'll get a call while setting up a show saying that Wrestler X won't be coming tonight because he's stuck in an airport somewhere). But as I said, we do try and compensate for such mishaps however we can.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 17 moses_ulrich


    ya cool fair enough answer. just an announcemnt settin it straight would have been cool. iww do a great job otherwise so keep it up...no way doug williams can be brought to cork? at least anyway i hope danielson is given a good match in cork like dublin

    All of the 'Special Front Row Tickets' are now Sold Out.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 72 ✭✭eggs


    IwW’s 2 major shows in the National Basketball Arena, Tallaght and Cork's Neptune Stadium are now only 2 weeks away! These shows will feature a huge variety of wrestling’s top stars from around the world. However, we regret to inform our fans that 3 of these stars will now be unable to attend these huge shows. Rene Dupre and “The American Dragon” Bryan Danielson will be taking part in a tour of Mexico, and Doug Williams will be involved in the TNA tour this June. Hence, once again, we regret to inform our fans that these stars will not be able to appear in Tallaght and Cork this June.


    However, in response to this, Irish Whip Wrestling has now acquired 2 major stars that will now be appearing on these major shows. These huge stars names will be announced here during the week. Stay tuned to http://www.irishwhipwrestling.com for details.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,061 ✭✭✭leggo


    IwW would like to announce the following stars for these upcoming shows:
    balls.jpg

    BALLS MAHONEY (WWE, ECW)


    Mahoney is an ECW Original and always a favourite at shows. Known best for the unpredictable, wild action he brings wherever he goes, who knows what he has in store for Ireland when he comes to Tallaght and Cork?


    mcguinness.jpg

    RoH Heavyweight Champion, NIGEL MCGUINNESS

    This will not be the Ring of Honor's first appearance in IwW, as he was victorious in his debut at IwW SuperShow II in 2007. However, upon his return, he now has a bullseye upon his chest as he is currently RoH Heavyweight Champion. Thus, IwW has agreed with RoH to host two HUGE title defences:

    Tallaght - Saturday 14th June
    RoH Heavyweight Championship Match

    NIGEL MCGUINNESS (c) vs. IwW Zero-Gravity Champion, VIC VIPER


    Cork - Sunday 15th June
    Title vs. Title

    NIGEL MCGUINNESS/VIC VIPER (RoH Champion) vs. MANDRAKE (IwW Champion)


    These matches are sure to change the landscape of Irish wrestling for months to come and are not to be missed!

    On top of these mega-stars, IwW has added several other international name's to the bill, such as:

    ANDY BOY SIMMONZ (England)
    PAYDAY PATTERSON (USA)
    BAD BONES (Germany)
    DAVE MORALEZ (England)

    and many more...

    This internationally loaded card will all be a television taping for Irish Whip Wrestling's brand new TV series, 'INTERNATIONAL WRESTLING'. More info on this huge development will be released in the following week.

    For full information on this event, stay tuned to www.IrishWhipWrestling.com!

    No Duprèe?

    I had a feeling that was gonna happen. Thankfully i held off on buying that there Tag Team belt.


    It seems to me IwW these days are doing things a certain way...














































    The Conway :D

    Where you gonna buy a tag belt to get signed by Dupree?, i mean La Resistance were decent but not much more than that

    I always enjoyed them, to be honest. I thought they were pretty good wrestlers and possibly one of the best tag teams to hold that design of tag team belt (But not many teams really held that belt, Cade and Murdoch are probably my favourites)

    Mahoney, McGuinness and Bad Bones are great replacements. Well done IWW!

    Nigel winning the IwW title? Jaysus! And this TV thing interests me. Will it be on The Fight Network, or online, or even better, RTE or TV3 or what?

    €25 just to meet them. that seems awfully expensive. Hell i got a FREE ticket to meet actual WWE stars in gamestop last year. WrestlingMania has stars in all the time and i've never been charged. Just saying. Is it the actual stars charging or the shop. And by the by its not a wwe shop. Its a wrestling merch shop.

    My thoughts exactly. That is the same price as the actual show, totally robbery.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,972 ✭✭✭orestes


    Just wondering, does anyone know if you can pay in at the door for the Tallaght show this weekend?

    I only live a couple of minutes away from the stadium and it would be easier for me to just pay in than get to ticketmaster or buy online since I don't have a credit card
