>>10456103It became a workrate fed because CIMA figured out that it was easier to get talent from there than ROH. You got paid less than your rate and expected to kill yourself in the ring to go work Wrestle Jam events over there. Before then, it was the guys with soft bodies going above and beyond and the guys with hard bodies taking the night off. On a side note, it's funny watching early BOLAs because the vast majority of the ROH guys are clearing roiding and the PWG SoCal guys have soft, shitty bodies because they aren't on gear. The SoCal guys on roids do become ROH guys though.
So yeah, BOLA 2006 happens and PWG becomes a different animal altogether.
