diabolic.angel Posted July 9, 2006 Share Posted July 9, 2006 I've signed on with three different promotions and even though the scheduling is spaced out enough, i'm not allowed to sign on for any more. All of my agreements are strictly verbal. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D. Boons Ghost Posted July 9, 2006 Share Posted July 9, 2006 Workers are limited to working 3 promotions at one time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diabolic.angel Posted July 10, 2006 Author Share Posted July 10, 2006 Okay, but that does limit how much you can make and how much you can do in a month. I'm involved in the indy scene in the Northeast and the general attitude is that you can work for as many promotions as you can as long as you're not under a exclusive contract or anything. Limiting the number of promotions you can work for is normally something you don't see on the indy level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FINisher Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 Gotta love these "I'm a wrestler in indies!!"-guys. Hey, IT'S A GAME. Make your own game and stop complaining :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Ryland Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 [QUOTE=diabolic.angel]Okay, but that does limit how much you can make and how much you can do in a month.[/QUOTE] That's kind of the point. It's a game - if you could work for as many feds as you wanted then even the worst player would have absolutely no problem getting enough money to easily survive, and a competent player would find it incredibly easy. Again, WreSpi2 is not a sim, it's not meant to be an accurate portrayal of life as a wrestler, it's a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diabolic.angel Posted July 11, 2006 Author Share Posted July 11, 2006 Adam, I realize it's just a game and there's really no way to accurately potray the life of a indy wrestler. I had a question and I figured that I would post it here and get the proper response. [quote]Gotta love these "I'm a wrestler in indies!!"-guys. Hey, IT'S A GAME.

Furthermore, you might think it's amusing, but I am a worker in the indies and damn proud of it, so unless you're involved, kindly refrain from taking shots at something you've no comprehension about.

I did a run in for that and took a beatdown and then got hit with what he called 'The horror show'(a fireman's carry into a reverse ddt combo) Kazz, the guy in the singlet is a biog guy, but he's a good worker and can move like a cruiserweight.

jonlawson Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 Isn't it hard even if you're working for multiple organizations, to make money on the indy scene?? So, even if you were with say 4 organizations and only made about 20 to 50 dollars a match you still wouldn't be making too much, if I'm correct,.... If not, then just count this off as another "jon" rambling :p Also, I'm totally working to get into the "scene" myself....I'm manager material with my southern accent and stuff....just working on a gimmick I could throw out on video and then I'm out there ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diabolic.angel Posted July 12, 2006 Author Share Posted July 12, 2006 It is hard to make decent $$ on the indy scene, that's why most workers I know have real jobs and when they wrestle, will work for as many promotions as they can because, you're right in that the pay isn't all that high. There are a few workers i know who make their living wrestling, but they wind up wrestling overseas and are on the road a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diabolic.angel Posted July 12, 2006 Author Share Posted July 12, 2006 I'm not booked for anything right now as real life does tend to intrude and I've a daughter to take care of. I am however looking at beginning of August though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonlawson Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 I may get a trial run in Mexico, haven't heard back yet and don't wanna start rumors yet, but I'll be a Christian Redneck manager :p God, I could shot down there...huh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
