Hey everyone! Sarah here.
I’ve been going back and forth in my head about what role a promoter should actually play in modern professional wrestling.
I don’t ever want LWE to turn into a vanity project. The wrestlers should always be the focus, and I’ve seen firsthand what happens when writers or promoters make everything about themselves. That said… I also think something got lost along the way when we decided promoters had to be invisible.
Wrestling has always lived in that weird space between real life and kayfabe. Fans know more now. They follow wrestlers as people, not just characters, and I don’t think pretending that promoters don’t exist, or don’t matter, really works anymore either.
What doesn’t work, though, is “larger than life” without relatability. We’ve all seen what happens when something feels too manufactured; people sniff it out fast. Authenticity and quality matter more than ever.
So instead of pretending I have all the answers, I’m going to do something a little different. I’m going to keep studying wrestling, asking questions, and sharing what I’m learning. This is not to push an agenda, but because I genuinely want to hear how others think wrestling fits into today’s world of changing tech, media, and fan culture.
If LWE moves forward in any form, I want it to come from conversation, not ego.
I’d really love to hear your thoughts. What do you think professional wrestling needs right now, and what actually makes it connect? Let’s dig into the sociology and psychology of it and see if there’s room to try something new.
