Using RSPW as a business opportunity is foolish to begin with, John. Only
dope smoking hippies and raging lunatics inhabit this place. No one with any
actual money, anyway.

Get a job. It pays more than making $1 a DVD off the 6 morons that will

Blame it on the WWF/WCW Monday night wars, when the two feds were giving
PPV-quality shows every freaking week for FREE to get market share. Most
wrestling fans today became fans during that era, so they have no clue about
going down to the local armory to see your area's low-budget indy fed put on
a show. They want it all, highly produced, and placed in front of them on a
silver platter. Also, the current product that the WWE is producing does
tend to make your average wrestling nerd a little jaded on the business in
general.

insane hippie, but the DVD sounded cool and definately would have been worth
it.

Zero requests so far. I'll keep you posted.

I've heard someone talk exactly like this before...who was it...oh yeah, it
was Mike Palij! I wish I could remember what I told him at the time. Oh,
wait, Google will tell me!

You have a pretty strange perception of what a wrestling fan is, dude.

You are delusional. Just because people aren't interested in a DVD of RSPW
from 10 years ago marking out to a bunch of washed-up ECW guys doesn't make
them the anti-wrestling fan.

Yea I guess it takes a lot of time and effort making sure those ten hits a
day don't overwhem the server.

So you have no job yet you spend all day making DVDs and losing money on them?
Interesting strategy for success.

>they obviously don't give a fuck.
Why should we? Almost none of us were around here in 1995. Why would we want
to see footage of comic book guys acting like comic book guys? Throwing in
footage of a few jobber wrestlers, whoopee. I'll go watch Sunday Night Heat for
that fix.

Why would any of us pay *anything* for an interview with Rocco Rock? The
guy's a jobber. How much is "out the ass, " anyway? $100? $75? You think
Rocco Rock and Johnny Grunge are worth that much?
and thanksed me for giving them the
>chance to see it.
We get to the root of it all. Attention for you.
