CWF worldwide is the answer, either that or old NWA wildside Yea CWF Worldwide is the way to go. Very good weekly TV with a pretty good amount of variety in the types of wrestlers who work there. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLMIr13_npmhVaKO0II0V6XmeXaVi2bl8V

I think people are really over stating how much "bad PR" this is going to bring to WWE. Nobody outside the wrestling bubble is going to talk about this. It's going to be the big topic of discussion on twitter/reddit/NEWZ sites for a week or two and then go away except for the reoccurring dumb jokes like what still happens with Rollins from time to time. This isn't going to get talked about on any kind of TV news show.

[1985-12-13-Houston Wrestling] Butch Reed vs Dick Slater (No DQ)
goc replied to shoe's topic in December 1985
I liked this a lot better than when I watched it on the Mid-South set and said it was the worst match on the set. There is some really great stuff in this match, with Reed just kicking Slater's ass at the start and then Slater getting control and just destroying Reed's arm. The problem though is that once Reed starts his comeback he pretty much never sells the arm again and is able to do all his offense including a press slam with no problem. I still don't love the finish of what is essentially a DQ in a No DQ match but it does make a least some sense when we get the full post match with Tommy Gilbert saying that No DQ meant Slater & Reed could do whatever they wanted to each other but didn't include Slater attacking him. -
Taker wasn't drafted to Smackdown, he wasn't drafted at all.

It's not like they couldn't have just done Hunter getting his heat back next week either. And Seth is meant to be one of his guys. Imagine what he'd be like working someone he doesn't like. You mean like doing crotch chops to get the crowd to cheer him while he was supposed to be the heel in the feud with Roman?

The problem is that Bray's character is fucking dumb. Without a stable around him to hide his own deficiencies he has nothing. They should have taken this as an opportunity to humanize him and stop the stupid "supernatural" shit but seems like they've gone the other way with it.
-
Are you actually watching the shows or just reading some Scott Keith style "I hate everything" reviews and commenting on the shows off of that? Because they've done a pretty good job of stating the Orton joined The Wyatts because he couldn't beat them on his own, took them down from the inside by splitting up Harper & Bray, then fake gave up the title shot as the last bit of gaining Bray's confidence to get the "keys to the kingdom" which allowed him to burn down the shack which was the "source" of whatever stupid powers Bray has that people pretend make him cool.
-
I thought they had actually started to find their way into salvaging Seth Rollins' babyface run and then he got his ass kicked and now he's back to just being some guy who used to be in a hot stable a couple years ago.

Hell no.

Braun also backed off from fighting Big Show before when they had a face off in the ring.

Everyone in WWE who isn't getting pushed is somehow a secretly great talent held down by the MACHINE. I'm sure if Darren Young got released tomorrow there would be idiots fantasy booking him against top indie names like he's some kind of great work rate master.

Unless you're Cody Rhodes then you get streamers despite being about the most average wrestler there is.

I know for sure Lawler doesn't just RT anyone that tags him as I've tagged him in a few old pics & gifs and he's only RT'd one. So yea I have no idea what was going on with that PWI thing.

God damn this was good. I knew this would have some funny spots in it but it was a really good match on top of that. Cowboy Lang has been great in every match I've ever seen him in, he's kind of a lost worker of the 80s as no one ever talks about him but he's AWESOME. Mansfield was great at being a bumbling fool in the early going and then being a complete dick trying to get his revenge later on. Not in the top top tier of matches on NWAOnDemand but one of my favorites.
-
Yea Vince is dumb. He's old too. Old and dumb. Obviously the only thing that goes through his head is "Make Roman look strong" LOL. Dumb Vince. We all know he thought Roman was gonna get cheered when he came out at 30 in the Rumble. LOL.

I loved the music videos upload. Got a whole bunch of new gifs out of those. Lord Humongous walking around that place in his outfit would have been a clear OSHA violation though.

It's lazy but I think the point was to set up a match that Naomi can logically get put in at the last minute without having to wait until the last minute to decide what the title match is going to be.

Bayley seems to suffer more than any other wrestler in WWE right now of not being able to improvise if a pre-planned spot isn't going to work out. She did that thing in her last PPV match with Charlotte where she clearly saw Charlotte was out of position for whatever she was climbing the top rope to do but still got up there anyway and then had to climb down to move her in the right spot.

I know people have said Jeff Hardy won't be allowed in Japan due to a previous drug conviction but if Baba was able to pull strings to get them to let Dr Death come back to work for All Japan, I gotta think New Japan could probably pull some strings.

Yea you go ahead and tell yourself that no tears will be shed if Cesaro doesn't have a match during Mania or that people wouldn't have a fit over an IC Title match taking place during Fan Fest instead of on the main card.

Here you are talking about height. I have no issues with that, nor does anybody else. Talk about height all you want. See how you can have a discussion without any body shaming there. It's not that hard. I also said he's 100 pounds lighter and that's just as important as the height difference. It DOES matter. Zack Sabre Jr's deal of dominating people with technical wrestling doesn't work if the guy he's wrestling is a lot heavier and looks strong enough to just force his way out of holds.
-
Size isn't important in the UFC because they have weight classes that will keep ridiculous size disparities from happening unlike wrestling where every time I see people say Finn Balor needs to wrestle The Undertaker at Mania I just roll my eyes because he's 100 lbs lighter and a foot shorter and it would look ridiculous.

[1985-12-13-Houston Wrestling] Jim Duggan vs Buzz Sawyer (Coal Miner's Glove)
goc replied to shoe's topic in December 1985
I didn't really love this match but the finish was fucking AWESOME! Buzz trying to use the dog collar and it backfiring on him when Duggan yanked it to pull Buzz into the big Coal Miner's Glove punch was about as perfect of a wrestling finish as you can get. -
Something to Wrestle with Bruce Prichard
goc replied to Lust Hogan's topic in Publications and Podcasts
Stuff like "Bruce in the GWF" and "Houston Wrestling" always losing polls to the worst possible WWF topics is just another example of that weird ass ultra smark wreddit phenomenon where WWF/E is the worst run wrestling promotion ever and sucks but I don't want to watch/read/hear about anything else.
