For those who have had a chance to see the Manila Wrestling Federation shows live, having a chance to see them either on GANK and/or Rock Of Manila TV is a plus.
Since last year when starting to follow MWF on a regular basis, the quality of the shows have been very good. It definitely reminds this fan of the early days of The Territory Era in the 1960s-1970s.
This fan didn't have the luxury of the internet to watch wrestling shows back then. There was no social media like Facebook. It was watching wrestling on television Friday nights for one hour. It was live in a television studio. The fans would get a sense who would be wrestling at a large venue such as the Cow Palace once a month.
Television was definitely a major tool back then as it is today. The other tool was looking through the entertainment section of a local newspaper. It would show an advertisement of the upcoming show the previous Sunday.
This fan, and hopefully all of the kapafeds and wrestling fans alike, have appreciated what the Manila Wrestling Federation has done. William, Tarek, Veronica, the staff, and the MWF locker room (wrestlers and managers) have busted their tails for all of us. Getting Rock Of Manila TV on the airwaves in the Philippines has enhanced the number of viewers throughout much of the country.
Some of the other promotions in Southeast Asia are using You Tube, Premier Streaming Network and other tools for their shows. This is good news for any wrestling fan. Also, social media outlets such as Facebook, X (Twitter) and Instagram are as well. Anything to get the word out is a plus!
Finally, this fan is excited to see that next month's 2023 Noche Buena is closing in on a sellout at the PMC Spotlight Theater. This year for MWF has definitely been a good one and things are looking up!
Looking forward to seeing everyone in less than four weeks in and around Circuit Makati. If you see me, please say hello. It will be special!
