TO Moonsault8:
Interesting - the shows that we post on the site have all happened - so where are you getting that from?
As for this Sunday - this show was to be a fundraiser for Lindsays' Home - a shelter for pregnant and abused teenaged girls located just outside of Orangeville. Barb Steele, the Director of Lindsays' Home, made the final decision to postpone the show as she underwent tests today and is facing serious surgery, probably tomorrow (Friday) or Saturday. Her and her staff were to play a MAJOR part in this show - and obviously with the benficiary of a fundraiser not being able to attend a show - it doesn't make much sense to go on with the show when the beneficiary requests a reschedule.
But then again - people like you who run their mouths (correction - you sit behind a computer and type) without knowing the severity of a situation is what is wrong with this world period.

Well how bout you and your Ring Wars crew still run a show and what ever money you do rasie hand over to the worthy cause. Sure its great to put on a benefit show.. but why not take that extra step and still make it happen and raise some monies at least! I am sure they or anyone in that situation would be more then happy.
And as for the cancelled shows... I am talking about last year.. and before you regrouped into Ring Wars... it has always been an unstable company even though the names have changed in the past.
I bet a coupel more shows by Ring Wars will be cancelled this year.

OBVIOUSLY, AGAIN - YOU ARE MISSING THE POINT. BARB STEELE - STEELE - WHO WAS BARB KELLY PRIOR TO GETTING MARRIED - REQUESTED THE POSTPONEMENT AND I OBLIGED OUT OF RESPECT FOR HER. OBVIOUSLY YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT RESPECT IS. WHAT YOU PERSONALLY FEEL WE 'SHOULD DO ANYWAY' TAKES AWAY FROM WHAT THE BENEFICIARY OF THE SHOW HAS REQUESTED.
RESPECT YOU IDIOT..TRY IT SOME TIME!!!
MY NAME IS CHRIS DRURY - AND AM EASY TO FIND. I NOW ENCOURAGE YOU TO HAVE THE DECENCY (AS IF THAT IS GONNA HAPPEN) TO LIST YOUR REAL NAME AND BE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR SELFISH AND IDIOTIC COMMENTS. KNOWING THAT BARB 'WAS' BARB KELLY MEANS YOU ARE PROBABLY FROM THE ORANGEVILLE AREA RIGHT? WHY NOT MEET WITH ME AND WE CAN DISCUSS YOUR OPINIONS FACE TO FACE? OH WAIT...PEOPLE LIKE YOU HIDE BEHIND COMPUTER SCREENS...I FORGOT!
AS FOR THE OLD SHOWS GETTING CANCELLED - WHEN INSURANCE SHUT DOWN THE ENTIRE PROVINCE FOR SEVERAL MONTHS LAST YEAR....YES WE WERE FORCED TO CANCEL. BUT AS 'UNSTABLE' AS WE WERE - WE HELD JUST OVER 50 SHOWS IN LESS THAN 3 YEARS....SO WHILE I CONSTANTLY REFUSE TO ANSWER CRITICISM - PEOPLE LIKE YOU WHO HAVE NO...ZERO....NONE...UNDERSTADNING OF DECENCY, BUSINESS, OR 'DOING THE RIGHT THING' REALLY MAKE ME SICK.
SORRY TO EVERYONE WHO READS THIS AND TAKES OFFENSE, BUT WHEN WE MAKE A DECISION BASED ON DECENCY AND RESPECT - IT COWARDS LIKE THIS MOONSAULT8 WHO MAKE IT TOUGH TO GET THROUGH AN ALREADY TOUGH SITUATION!

I don't need to meet you face to face what would that accomplish... who are you to come on here and TALK LIKE THAT. I was stating my oponion of your product.. if you can't take it then dont reply to my posts and ingore it. Everyone has an opinion and that is what the board is for. So get over your faults as a promoters and dont sweat the small things in life.. which is someone like me simply stating what I think.

I think the point Mr. Drury is making, and one which you seem unable to grasp is that maybe you should have the facts before you go off on someone.
Why does he have to not respond to somebody who flames him without knowing all the details.
I don't think he is saying don't have an opinion, he's saying get all the inofrmation before sitting down and bashing someone.
You asked the question earlier in the thread about what's up with Ontario Indy wrestling. One piece of the answer is simple. Misinformed people like you are always looking for the negatives in everything anybody tries to do. If you have all the answers - put your money where your fingers walk.
Try putting together a show, booking the talent, getting the venue, insurance, build the website, get sponsprships.......and then we can sit back and knowledgably critique your erfforts.

After all the years that Mr. Drury has been in the business he still puts on below par shows... I am sorry but I have been to many of his shows and do not enjoy them or notice any improvments... and that is why I have stopped attending them.. the only ones I do enjoy are Ring N Ears since it offers something different.
I do not think I am alone in thinking this of Ring Wars either.
The only calss act fed I can think of is BCW and Neo Spirit coming in a competative 2nd place.
Maybe if Ring Wars put on decent shows with better talent then Brown Hornet and their other light weights, they'd get the respect and recognition they would then deserve from other ON. promoters and fans.

Oh and another note... no wonder Drury does not have good success ... what type of promoter talks like this to wreslting fans "RESPECT YOU IDIOT"... "MY NAME IS CHRIS DRURY" - get a life Drury. You certainly do NOT have my respect or others after talking like that. You think D'amore talks like that to his fans on messageboards?
Following in the footsteps of Anderson and his poor attitude when people accused his product.. you can't handle the truth either.

BASICALLY, YOU HAVE MISSED THE POINT AND ISSUE AGAIN!!
I BELIEVE THAT EVERYONE IS ENTITLED TO THEIR OPINIONS, AND I HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH THAT.
MY ISSUE WITH THIS HAS ABSOLUTLEY NOTHING TO DO WITH YOUR FEELIGNS ABOUT ME OR RING WARS OR PWE OR WHATEVER....
MY ISSUE STEMS FROM THE FACT THAT A GOOD FRIEND IS FACING A TERRIBLE ORDEAL, AND OUT OF RESPECT TO HER WISHES WE DECIDED TO POSTPONE AN EVENT THAT WITHOUT HER PRESENT AT; IT WOULD MEAN VERY LITTLE. ALSO, WITH HER FAMILY AND STAFF SO INVOLVED, AND THEM OBVIOUSLY WANTING TO SUPPORT HER AT THIS TIME.....I DEFINITELY DO TAKE ISSUE WITH THIS.
AGAIN - HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT ME IS IRRELEVANT.....HOW YOU DISRESPECT BARB AT THIS CRUCIAL TIME IN HER LIFE....THAT IS WHY I AM REACTING THIS WAY...
NOW....
HAVE SOME RESPECT PLEASE!

"Maybe if Ring Wars put on decent shows with better talent then Brown Hornet and their other light weights, they'd get the respect and recognition they would then deserve from other ON."
Now I'm hot.
I am one of the FEW guys (I think there is only one other, being Rory McAllister) on the Ring Wars roster who trains, one of the very FEW guys on the Ring Wars roster who gets ring time more than twice a month, and one of the FEW guys on the Ring Wars roster who can find bookings away from Chris Drury.
You can go ahead and bash the Ring Wars roster if you want, that's your opinion, but don't you dare try and put me at the bottom of a group of hobbiests.
I know people (including Chris Drury himself) are now going to think Wow Hornet has an ego. I don't have an ego, it's just about damn time more people see that I'm not the skinny guy I once was, I'm not a jobber, and I'm a respected cruiserweight among the TRUE *workers* of Ontario.
Besides if you are still calling me "The Brown Hornet" that means you haven't seen me work since 2002.
Don't you fail to realize that I am something to look forward to on a Ring Wars show, not the problem on a Ring Wars show.
I don't know why I even defend myself, you guys are all idiots anyway.

I get respect from non-Ring Wars workers, but that's nothing you would know about because you're a mark. So don't put me in that sentence.

First of all I am going to get the King Kong Bundy pop .... BROWN HORNET RULES!!! *Thumbs up Hornet*
I was really fighting the urge to reply to this fourm but what the fuck, it's the internet. If people like me didn't come on to these msg boards causing ruckus things wouldn't be as interesting around here now would they ?
I have seen many Drury shows, only 2 since the birth of Ringwars however. My question to this "moonsault" character is since you obviously are not entertained by the ringwars crew, why do you go to their shows? Seriously .. Paying hard earned money to sit anonymously in a crowd watching a show, just so you can later go on the internet and tear the show appart..well..that seems pretty stupid to me. Show Chris Drury, and moreso, the ringwars crew respect. They're doing this for the marks and for their love of the business. Basically, if you are going to be a dipshit, don't come out to the shows, because you're "smart mark" ass wont be missed i assure you that. I think BCW and NSPW are my two personal favorite promotions running right now, but Ringwars offers something different, a more old school feel to shows. Even if you dont like the shows, they're doing what they love, and having fun doing it, so please find another way to be an asshole.
one more time
HORNET RULES! ;D
