With a double night of tapings, the footage could be used to construct a PPV (or <strong><em>One Night Only<\/em><\/strong>) or another special event on Twitch. Big Time Wrestling is one of California&#8217;s oldest indie promotions, started in 1996 by Kirk White (although they never truly got going until about 2001). This marks only the 14th time Impact has been to California in it&#8217;s 16-year history and first since 2013&#8217;s <em><strong>Bound For Glory<\/strong><\/em> in San Diego.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_13457\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13457\" style=\"width: 388px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13457\" src=\"https:\/\/lwosonprowrestling.ms.lastwordonsports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2018\/01\/BTW-Impact-Poster2.1-e1517377912375.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"388\" height=\"600\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-13457\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo: BTW<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Co-promoting events with indie promotions in-between tapings and PPV events is a brilliant concept, as it accomplishes multiple tasks: it helps provide Impact Wrestling with fresh talent for their established stars and provides Impact Wrestling with new original content for their burgeoning Twitch channel, it&#8217;s far cheaper than taking the crew on lengthy road trips like the WWE, and it helps provide a larger audience to not only raise awareness of local independent promotions around North America (and the world), but to some local independent talent you may not normally get to see, like Toronto indie star <strong>Brent Banks<\/strong>, Windsor&#8217;s <strong>Aidan Prince<\/strong>, Mexico&#8217;s <strong>Ultimo Ninja<\/strong> and more.
