Hello, Lovelies! (Feels good to type that again)

I'm still getting up to speed over at Outsports after my break, plus part of my desk decided it was done existing this morning, so the next episode of LGBT In The Ring won't drop until next week. 💜💜💜

Happy #PrideMonth

PDX Folx!

My queer af softball team is hosting a drag bingo fundraiser at The Pharmacy in downtown Portland this Wednesday, May 14! If you're in the area, come by and show support for us as we raise funds for our entry into the Portland Cup and Emerald City Classic this summer!

Also share anything from DUSK Pro, Knokx Pro's LGBTQ showcase, anyone else running Shooting Star Fest or the crew at MEET Las Vegas, MurderMania etc. I pride myself on covering as much as possible when I'm on the ground during Mania week & I want to do the best I can from afar!

What bums me out about doing this remotely is that plenty of shows with matches that would likely make this list that I won't see because they won't be streamed. Especially spots like PrideStyle, GrapHouse, Versus, BVW & others that hold down Vegas. Share video if you got it!

I'm not in Vegas this week & I wish all of you there the best of luck, but I do have news.

Still on mental health leave, but I'm back for this week only.

I'll be writing my annual Best LGBTQ matches of Mania week list for Outsports. Let me know where I can watch your shows!💜

Hello, Lovelies! Brian here. Today I'm announcing that LGBT In The Ring is going on an indefinite hiatus. I speak about that decision in today's special episode, but my mental health is in a very poor place and need to step away to get right.💜💜💜

The image is a promotional poster featuring a night sky with two flying saucers emitting green light beams, creating a sci-fi atmosphere. The upper section has bold white text on a black background stating, "No Ring - No Rules - LGBTQ+ Owned." Below the flying saucers is a graphic with the word "UFO," where the "O" resembles a vinyl record, alongside a conical flask symbol. Underneath, the word "ABDUCTION" is repeated three times, with a shadow effect, and the first instance is colored in green. The bottom part of the poster includes additional text in black on a white background with event details.
