Santino Bros. Wrestling (SBW)

[7.0] "as a school they're dope and have produced alot of talent across the so cal scene. as a promotion, I think comparing it to anything big league is unfair. it encapsulates the indie spirit perfectly. there story stuff really is basic but they're creative and know how to seemingly improve, its effective. there world champs are treated as such and never like an after thought, thats something I can appreciate too. for first time viewing, I encourage going to or viewing there events that arent in the bell gardens. not that theres anything wrong but I think they'd even admit those are the smaller of there events and alot of there top talent dont go. so its more of a checking out the up and comers in the so cal scene and for the so cal undercard scene to get more reps. not anything bad as thats how I found favorites in Richie coy and Chris nasty and the wrestlers at the BG events never slack off either. id say them and NJPW dojo are the places main places for consistent good wrestling shows in Los Angeles. so you dont have to wait months on end for other shows to stroll in to town. the two are the only ones that ive seen to have sensical and good booking too. I know it's weird mentioning another promotion but I added NJPW academy just to show how high I think of these guys. commentators are as best as you'll find not in any major company so that makes the online streaming alot better too"

[6.0] "Santino Bros checks alot of boxes. Solid Wrestling, pretty great sound quality, passionate commentators, and adequate ring size. But there is still a lot to ne desired. Its watchable in most instances but the venue is way to small and begins to become a liability to the crowd which for the venue size was a pretty okay turnout. The lighting is a little wonky. Talent is still visible when performing but there is no direct focal light its sort of a variety of lights halphazardly skewed throughout the ring. The wrestling in some matches leaves a lot to be desired. In a deathmatch I witnessed some of the obstacles or weapons malfunctioned or didnt really go over. There was also a chair shot where we had to wait a minute in the half for the wrestler to hide his face under the ring to blade. Dissapointingly he was also the champion. I understand in ring skill and microphone talent are usually who gets the titles but to be even the temporary main carder of your promotion they should either A. Not blade at all and just take the damage naturally, or B be a little better at blading. The camera work was amateur super shakey and sometimes there was a angle transition delay. All in all Santino Bros is perfectly stomachable but it needs to grow signifcantly before it can be taken as a serious promotion."
