People never got refunded for that? That's disgraceful, they sold 450 tickets and they certainly weren't cheap, around 150 euro each if I remember correctly.

Ha I love this thread !!! Shame on you BEW but im new to Local Indy wrestling can someone give me a brief story or what happened at the wrestlezone Ireland thingy?

Apparently that 1PW show in England that had HBK booked is going tits up as well. Who'd be a wrestling fan?:pac:

I'm quite happy that this farce was cut off very quickly. I'd hate to think of anyone here getting scammed after last year's WrestleZone debacle.

Then again, "I don't have any proof, stop asking" isn't that credible!

That was my first thought.
Especially when i read "we were told to go online here only".
Alarm bells started ringing there, as im sure it probably did for a few others.

Just read all 4 Wrestlezone threads. My God it was a fascinating read. This has to be a scam also. I mean Lo-ki was on TNA this week and all.

I'm sure one of the moderators can see if there is a match between the IP address of the BEW account and a previously banned account.

At the end of the day though i'm glad this scam/joke was exposed as a fraud before any of us got too excited about the show or worse still, before any of us parted with our hard earned cash.

Once again thanks to Shadooby and Jay for tweeting Low-Ki and Stevie Richards for confirmation.

Really must say fair play lads you sussed this out both very quickly and in the right manner, also good work Jay on ensuring this didnt become a farce. For instance one of the above comments would usually get edited out by me for safety sake as I would have to take action against personal abuse but it seems the label is actually appropriate given the fact that this appears to be a scam of at the very least false information used to advertise on boards.ie in the hope of taking money from the Irish wrestling public who frequent these boards, thankfully they are too smart for that.

What I wonder is, when they said carlito and stevie, there was some intrest.
Mention low ki and it peaks! Why randomly chose those known but not huge names,
Then completely make people question the legitimacy by getting greedy.

I thik there may be issues surounding HBK's availability for that now. Mark Slaon, a very reputable promoter with an excellent reputation for delivering on what he promises, had to cancel a Meet and Greet with HBK he had organised around the same time. He hinted without saying outright that HBK may have a major booking at the same time in America (I reckon he's booked for some RAW's or something) as the 1PW show.

Either way they're hugely in debt again apparanetly so I'd be sceptical that show will go ahead at all.

He probably thought they were all free agents. Richards is free I think, Carlito is in AAA, Low-Ki
Returned to TNA last week
