Editing Independent circuit (section)

===Australia===
{{see also|List of professional wrestling organisations in Australia}}
Unlike the [[North America]]n or [[Japan]]ese products which have large, globally renowned organisations such as [[WWE]] and [[New Japan Pro-Wrestling]] with several hundred smaller [[professional wrestling promotion|promotions]], Australia only has approximately 30 smaller independent circuit promotions which exist in all but one of the states and territories, that being the [[Northern Territory]]. Tours from the North American product are regularly sold out in capital cities such as [[Melbourne]], [[Sydney]], [[Perth]] and [[Brisbane]].

First night in Brisbane on 2/25 drew 2,200 and 2/26 in Melbourne drew about 4,000. Must be interesting because they are using Liger vs. Benoit, who have no name identity in Australia, as the semifinal, and Neidhart vs. Roberts on top. Can you imagine Roberts and Neidhart having to follow those two?}}</ref>
