With the recent announcement of the results of the top ten rated indy wrestling promotion in Texas, several promotions appear poised to make a move into that top tier during 2010. As XCW has announced that they will cease operations after this Saturday's show, the is at least one spot available for next year. With that in mind, which of these promotions (rated # 11-20 in 2009) seems most likely to have a break through year in 2010? The results will be announced and discussed during the first indywarzradio show in January.

The Top Ten Wrestling Promotions in Texas
Several months ago, a list of 59 "active" Texas Indy Wrestling Promotions was published at www.myspace.com/texaswrestlingcalendar. That number eventually grew to 72 promotions. I took that list and created this webpage so there would be one source to find all the web pages & myspace profiles and so people could cast votes rating those promotions from "One of the Best" to "One of the Worst."
Four and a half months later over 2600 votes have been cast by at least 4 different voters. While I am sure that these results are every bit as reliable as those on American Idol, I feel secure enough in the list to publish them here. While I may not agree with the precise order of this list, I sincerely believe that all ten promotions on this list can make a case for being considered one of the best in Texas.
That being said, the top ten promotions as rated here (from #10 to #1) are:
10 - Pro Wrestling Alliance - Pasadena
9 - NWA-SW/World of Wrestling - Cypress
8 - Full Effect Wrestling - Tyler
7 - NWA-SW/Panhandle Wrestling Federation - Amarillo
6 - XCW - Pilot Point
5 - Texas All-Star Wrestling - Humble
4 - Professional Championship Wrestling - Arlington
3 - River City Wrestling - San Antonio
2 - New School Federation - Temple
1 - Anarchy Championship Wrestling - Austin

Is it a Crime to Vote More Than Once?
With the Rating of Texas Indy Promotions in full swing here at www.texasindywrestling.blogspot.com I was somewhat distressed when a friend who with more computer skills than I told me that he had identified one worker who has voted for his own promotion “at least eight times.” I don’t know how my friend was able to determine this, but allegedly the wrestler does not deny it.
I don’t know if it’s true. I’m not sure if I should care. While I have no problems with promotions, promoters, wrestlers and fans reposting the link www.texasindywrestling.blogspot.com on their own pages or in bulletins in an effort to get more votes for their favorite promotions, I do find it dishonest for any individual to find a way to vote excessively. That would include asking people who never even go to a wrestling show to vote.
In contrast, the ability to inspire fanatical support is part of the equation in determining a successful promotion. That is after all what the word promote entails. I strongly encourage promotions, promoters, wrestlers and fans to spread the word concerning the ratings here at www.texasindywrestling.blogspot.com – The more people who participate honestly in the ratings, the less chance that some less than honest individuals will corrupt the results.
I will be rethinking how to use the ratings and if I should publish some sort of “final results” or “Rankings”
Until that time, don’t let your favorite promotion go unrepresented.
