I just wanted to say I DO NOT support this new stuff the DPOR is trying to do with doubling everything. It is bad enough with theses regulations getting more and more tougher...NOW THIS????? Rick O' Brien, Kyle Leach, William Woody, Travis Bradshaw work hard to put on quality wrestling events for our state and most of all thier community. Now the DPOR is trying to basically cut us out of thing we love doing best..entertaining people. Is that right to the fans who pay to come see us? No it is not. Is it right to the people who let us put on shows in thier venue to help out thier community??? No it is not. Is it fair to the wrestlers who work hard to have to pay double for thier time of entertaining??? No it is not. And last but not least is it fair to the promoters who work hard to let us wrestlers perform in the state of VA??? No it is not. These increases are very unacceptable and something needs to be done to stop this nonsense. The DPOR tries to treat this as a legit sport, we are not a legit sport, we are in the entertainment business and this is what needs to be brought out. We do not go in there to legitly kick each others but or go 8 to 12 rounds. We go out to entertain the people who love pro wrestling and who love to see us. I am sorry if I make some people mad with that comment but I am just trying to get a point across. And now this DPOR is scheduling a meeting for the middle of the week???? What happened to a Saturday, din't we have that meeting last year on a Saturday. I think so. Do not worry, I will be there to support to fellow wrestlers I work with and the fellow promoters i have worked for, they deserve our support.
See you guys on the 17th,
