I've got that itch. I ran a weekly efed for quite a while. I ran it mostly for 5 months without any help and towards the last 6 weeks or so had some help from Jack Diamond and a couple others. Which was great.
At that time I was in the early stages or marital problems among health issues... and got burned out. It was just a tough time honestly and very reluctantly shut ICW down.
I do have the desire to get it up and going again. I just wanted to see if there's enough interest to do so. What drives me is members. if I have 8 to 10 guys or more that are all active and into it all... it drives me greatly and makes it very fun for me.
If I have 3 or 4 active guys and a bunch of hit and miss guys then it's still cool, but makes it hard to stick with it. I feel like ICW had a lot of great things for it. My graphics were okay, but we did weekly shows with a PPV each month, old school.
With an actual website. It was very classic efedding from the early 00s IMO. And I stand behind what I put out. It was good quality for sure with moment of high stuff mixed in.
It's been closed for 4 years now, and while I never meant for it to be closed that long, I 100% am into bringing it back. It would all be mostly the same, as the style and recipe worked.
I know what I'm doing, and I can make it a fun place. I didn't tolerate drama last time and the same vibe will be this time. It was a successful run. I had basically 5 really loyal guys and then a mix of people coming and going. It made booking challenging. It made things harder than they had to be.
Anyways, my life is together. It's been a rough few years, and I had thought about opening this thing back up last year, and came very close, but it just didn't work out.
Honestly, AEW has me excited for wrestling again. I do think that I can do ICW in chunks with a break here and there. People get burned out sometimes, but honestly it's just laziness sometimes.
We all have things that happen, but laziness is key. I've been lazy getting it going again, but to be honest with all of you, I don't know where to start to find members. I don't really know. I don't do Facebook. I know reddit is hit and miss. It's just kinda tough.
Anyways, if any of you are interested, just let me know, but I don't want it to take away from this place Mongo has going. Just any lurkers or anyone that wants to tag along. Right now ICW can be ready to go in a few days. I just need some support. Members are the blood of the place, and once the blood starts pumping well... the heart (the owner) returns the favor back, and around and around we go.
Man I miss efeds of the late 90s... so good.
Anyways, that's about it. Just wanted to post here. I hope all are well. Peace and love.
