Comment on NWA On Fire Will Eat Your Soul by danielcarljohnson

Thanks for the comment Marcus! I agree that NWA On Fire puts out some quality matches. It is arguably the best NWA promotion out there today. I wouldn’t really consider being a Headshrinkers reject much of an insult. The Headshrinkers are of course one of the more popular Samoan gimmicks that have happened over the years and can thus be used as a frame of comparison to other less popular gimmicks. From what I’ve see of Makua he doesn’t really put any unique spin on the gimmick like say Samoa Joe has (such as Joe wrestling with a standard tough guy gimmick, but still drawing on his Samoan heritage in less overt ways). As such Makua comes off to me with having a lesser gimmick and one that I think someone unsuccessfully auditioning for a spot as in The Headshrinkers would have. Still, that doesn’t mean the performer himself is bad. As I mentioned in previous posts about Muta “ripoffs” casting someone aside completely simply because their gimmick draws from a previous more popular one is silly.

More than anything though I wrote the concluding paragraph of that post to shift focus from the whacky rambling that came before it and bring it all back to wrestling, whether the wrestling in question is good or bad.

Hmmm Truthfully I’m fine with your more comedic points concerning Satan…but I gotta take ya to task on the others. Calling a guy a ” Headshrinkers reject” because he does a Samoan warrior gimmick is kinda silly considering how many other Samoan warrior types are scattered throughout various other feds..And truthfully this one is quite good IMO..
I attend quite a few indy shows and the last NWA on fire tv taping had a LOT of very good matches and a good sized, noisy and obviously satisfied crowd….Trust me, there are some indy promotions that don’t hold water..this one isn’t one of them.
Obviously everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but I enjoy supporting the indy feds that bring us tomorrows stars…
