The Arts Of Wrestling is finally returning after a long hiatus for the majority of 2023 and most of 2022.
Ever since it's inception in 2018 from the first Millennium all the way until AOW Independence Day III.... AOW has lost it's footing. Struggling to run weekly content proved to be a challenge after 2020 when the Pandemic halted production on many fronts.
Through show delays and roster changes... "I'm surprised AOW is still standing. I am surprised that we have a roster standing behind the product and they are patiently waiting." stated AOW founder David Flores as chief content officer Barry Buii and I sat down with him in his home in Pennsylvania.
"Coming from the e-fed world where we did competition promos (where promos are judged in a one on one contest.) it was a weird transition for us because the AOW world comes to life through 2k." said David to us as he opened up about the struggles in running AOW.
But through all the struggles... the brand saw major success in viewership on the website. Scoring major sponsors in iiRcade and manscape which they didn't get to benefit from due to the hiatus.
In this exclusive interview which will air soon, David reveals the pending reboot for AOW. May 15th will mark a new era for AOW. With the focus redirecting more towards ProWrestling and Entertainment as oppose to looking like a promo competition. AOW will re-focus on character building and traditional pro wrestling story telling.
And as to what excatly May 15th entails.... David says.... "Tune in to TheArtsOfWrestling.com in the next days and weeks for breaking news and updates.
I think I can speak for all of us when I say...... It's about damn times.
