They probably used their own. Not sure. As of that morning, the blood/glass one and the DGUSA one were our only two options. In hindsight, we should've just had the DGUSA logo facing up and it would've looked better, even though that would've meant we would have another promotion's logo on camera for one of our biggest shows ever.

One other question: Why were there no Shimmer shirts available for purchase at the show? I was really looking forward to buying one there.

It was awesome to see Shimmer in my home turf, had an awesome time and I am glad that Melissa regained the title. It had been a long time since I posted on this board, but thankfully my respect for this company is still there.

Awesome pics.
Thanks for coming, Carlos. Glad you had a good time.
As for the shirt question, we had already sold out of our most recent design, and honestly didn't have the extra cash to lay out to get new ones made for the show (everything went into covering the actual show expense).

I had a good time!
I'm on and off with wrestling so I don't keep up with mainstream and certainly don't know much about indie wrestling but I'm glad I let my friend persuade me to check out the Shimmer event that was going on along Wrestlecon.

Who was the fan that got slapped by Saraya? I can't tell if that looks like Paul "GLF" Sosnowski.

I thought it was GLF at the time, but I couldn't be sure of that.

I still wish she slapped Sosnowski for being who he is. Plus seeing the LuFisto Moonsault crash, I hated that right when LuFisto was going up top, everyone stopped fighting to look up and get together for the Moonsault spot. I hate that because it's so contrived just like in an X-Division Cluster match. When LuFisto slipped and tried to Kick Portia, everybody kinda got back to fighting (bet that was a message to the group "don't stand there, fight!"), she climbed on the top rope you can tell her back was towards the entrance in an angle. Nobody was in that range (you can't twist toward the group with a moonsault, it's 1 way and whoever's there is there) Kay & Skater & Matthews were off by a a bunch and LuFi crashed out. It was very much like Big Bubba failing to catch Jim Cornette 1986 Biggest Pops/Biggest Heat? I can't pick mine out, what ya'll say?

Considering what could have happened, considering how the impact looked, I'm not going to get angry that character was briefly broken. I'm glad they had showed compasion for someone.

I'm not talking after that, I'm talking about after the Gamen Wash and LuFisto went up the first time and lost her footing and kicked at Portia because everybody got together looking up instead of beating each other up. I hate it when ANYONE does that because it's so contrived and stupid.

Well they should be getting together, because they're trying to catch her!
