The Mansfield/Lang dynamic is great. Casey and Tom are pretty great too. Lang playing up Mansfield sexuality. Some fun schtick with tricking Tom that his partner hit him. Lang's punches looked stiff as hell. This was so fun. 3*

Tiny Tom vs Cowboy Lang The chain wrestling early on is done really well. Cowboy Lang working WOS spots. Some fun comedy spots. A totally entertaing match.Lang uses a lot of leverage spots. Lang with a vertical suplex. Boesch laughing his ass off his subperb. 3*

Fantastica Mania is usually a lot of fun.

Take note KO

I've never been a fan of the front face lock , and usually think it's one of the worst choices a wrestler can make . Here it was done to perfection.

We get a Manny promo to start. Gordman's sell job of the Atomic drop is tremendous. Gordman with a ankle pick and starts working the ankle. Gordman's arm work albeit short looked crisp. He does a nice abdominal stretch. In a fun spot Manny does a rolling body scissors.Gordman working the ankle. Manny's powerslam finishes it.

Chavo vs Gino It starts out with Gino kicking the shit out of a fan. I'm still tingling from the fight. Plus we have Lou Thesz as ref. The crowd is 100% behind Chavo. It also wants to lynch Gino. Gino on the neck, and negating Chavo's speed. Incredible belly to belly hope spot by Chavo. I'm loving the slow build, the wrestlers are getting huge reactions on arm drags. Everything the wrestlers do is getting over. Gino is smart by taking the heat down with the headlock. I'm loving Gino smothering Chavo. Chavo with a big comeback. The way Chavo works the Rito Romero special is really interesting It looks like it should break Gino's back. . The way Chavo is after the arm is cool The Fig 4 Octopus is so cool. Gino steals the fall. This was a strong 2nd fall. It was short, but sweet. The 3rd fall and Chavo is on fire. Chavo misses, but Gino capitalizes. Chavo returns the favor and holds the trunks for the win. Post match Gino lays out Chavo. Thesz and the babyfaces take the title from Gino. Post match was awesome, and heated. I'm a guy who takes crowd reactions as being very important. The crowd here was great throughout the match. This had an epic feel to it. 4 1/4*

I love this concept.

Duggan vs Monte Monte with a shine early working the arm. Duggan wants to be vertical, but Monte uses the arm drag as a weapon. Duggan's strength is too much and is a clubberin. Monte working underneath, but is cut off. Duggan using his weight. Again Monte keeps him off balance with a arm drag. Monte taking it to Duggan. Hammerlock takes Jim to the mat. Duggan and Monte go back and forth. Duggan takes him to the floor. Awesome finish. A real nice back and forth match.

Chavo vs Brooks Chavo working the arm early. Brooks uses some rough house tatics and works Chavo's arm. Reversal, Chavo in control .Back to the arm. Some back and forth action. Kinda just there.

I loved the 1st match, again I've been watching the show for the last 6 months so I was invested . Cain Justice is to me a possibly future Andy Dalton, Cory Hollis type heel. He has good heel instincts .

It's a small building so take that as u will.

It's essentially a territory. It has an old school vibe to it. Like Goc said story telling with payoffs . The underneath workers all are apt at building a story with sound psychology . It's my favorite promotion going today. The booking and announcing are what it's best at. They're making happen on a shoestring budget. Lee is the Ace who elevates all the workers he wrestles. Though everyone has a distinct personality.

Parv check out Lee vs Everett match. I had that as my 2nd best match this year. I find Lee a lot like Steamboat would be in this role.

I think squashes would reintroduce a valuable element to the shows and may even allow them to work around some of the 50/50 booking issues people often complain about. There's a lot to be said for the value of them both as matches and as a booking device. I agree in my statement. I said some squashes were important. They also used them to fill time.
