I'd definitely recommend checking out Dragon Gate, from Japan.

It's not really an indie promotion, but it is one of the best promotions in the world (the best imo). Completely home-grown talent, exciting matches, a lot of product and a dedicated English-language blog.

Another promotion I think is a good promotion to follow is Chikara. They too have a lot home-grown talent. They are pretty cheezy, but it's almost always purposeful. They run a lot of shows, have their own subscription service, and are very easy to follow.

Also, I recommend checking out Progress Wrestling. They hold easily spread-out shows, are fairly new, expanding and have a lot of good wrestlers, who are almost always British-native. It's a very good project if you want to support independent wrestling and/or British Wrestling. They also have their own subscription service.

You guys clearly haven't seen a lot of DDT if you assume it is all blow up dolls and gay dudes. There is a reason it is one of the top companies in the world and works with top talent.

DDT put on some breathtaking matches at a frequent rate.

It's like when people shit on PWG for being a spot fest.
