AS I SEE IT
Bob Magee
Pro Wrestling: Between the Sheets
PWBTS.com
Toward the end of the classic movie Wizard of Oz, when The
Wizard gives everyone what they most want in the world, The
Cowardly Lion, The Tin Man, and The Scarecrow ...and
finally, Dorothy who is going home, the Tin Man says goodbye
to Dorothy, and says "I know I have a heart, because I can
feel it breaking". To say I am disheartened about this past
week's results would be an understatement. I truly fear for
what will happen to our country and to the world in the next
four years.
The only thing I can say is that we will have to help each
other in the ways that the indie promotions below are
helping out their communities...free from bigotry or
prejudice, helping those who need help simply out of a
desire to help everyone. It's clear that there are too many
people in this country who won't do what is necessary to
help on a larger level and instead have fallen victim to the
siren song of hatred and fear of "the other". So in each of
our small worlds, it will have to be us...and us alone...
who help others for now. If one of the events below is in
your area, please make an effort to attend and to help.
As I have since 2017 in this AS I SEE IT blog, I report
during this season on how the independent wrestling
community reaches out to those in need.
Independent promotions throughout the United States and
Canada held events and gave back to their community;
collecting canned and non-perishable food and warm clothing,
doing fundraisers for homeless or domestic violence
shelters, animal welfare groups, and those with medical
needs...and lots of Toys for Tots drives. They did it
through (obviously) wrestling shows, plus Comic-Cons,
bowling parties, online trivia contests, chicken BBQ's, and
a dozen other means.
Wrestling indies are in the 2024 season of giving... with
140 charity shows/events announced (or having taken
place) so far to help their communities for the Holidays,
collecting donations from fans like you. More will do so
over the remaining eight weeks of the Holiday season.
Independent wrestling promotions have raised so far in 2024
$338,825.70 in cash donations, 12,336 pounds
(that's over 6 TONS) of canned and non-perishable food,
470 toys; 250 backpacks and "tons of school supplies", 24
blankets, three pairs of gloves, 4 knit hats, over
200personal care items; as well as animal blankets,
cat litter, indoor dry/wet food, cat/dog toys, and unscented
baby wipes for animal rescue groups.
