Honestly, I love living in Philadelphia, or more specifically, the Philadelphia area. Especially now, I have access to independent pro wrestling as well as frequent stops from the WWE and even TNA, whose house shows are rumored to be far, far better than their televised product. However, if there's one thing I need to be jealous about, it's the fact that Pro Wrestling Guerrilla doesn't run shows here. Yeah, I know, I'm greedy, but these guys really do run a tight ship. Great wrestling, great sense of humor and an almost unrivaled atmosphere. It can be hard to believe for the uninitiated that your average crowd in Reseda is probably the best in all American wrestling, but from what I've seen on DVD, that assessment is true. It's a big reason why my bucket list includes a trip out there.
Anyway, if you're in SoCal, you need to make it a point to go to their 7th Birthday Show on July 30th in Reseda. When Bryan Danielson's return to PWG takes second billing, you know it's going to be a good show. What's the main event? Scott Lost, in his final match ever, taking on a returning Scorpio Sky. For PWG fans, this is an important thing since Lost was one of the founding fathers of the fed, and Sky was a huge part of the fed's history as well. Lost joins Super Dragon and Chris Bosh on the sidelines. Shame, as all three men helped give PWG it's own flavor that balanced out the guys who had become indie mainstays on the East Coast like Danielson, Roderick Strong, Chris Hero and El Generico. Such is life.
But back to Danielson, the main reason why I'm posting this today is, well, this account of AmDrag's return to the indies in the preview blurb for his match against Roderick Strong:
When Bryan Danielson defeated Chris Hero in an epic World Championship title match at Guerre Sans Frontières last September, Pro Wrestling Guerrilla fans and staff alike thought they had seen the last of the "American Dragon" on the independent scene. However, in a shocking turn of events, Bryan Danielson was unceremoniously dumped to the freelance market after suffocating international popular music sensation Justin Bieber with a dry cleaning bag. Or something. We're not really big on details. Either way, we consider ourselves lucky to have a two-time former World Champion such as Danielson back in the Pro Wrestling Guerrilla locker room.Yeah, that made me LOL right proper. That's a big part of the sense of humor. Of course, you'd expect that from the fed that made Joey Ryan a household independent wrestling name, amirite?
Although, let's be honest, if he choked out Justin Bieber instead of Justin Roberts, I don't think he'd ever have to buy a
