I don't watch, but I see a lot of people posting in the old TNA thread do and seem quite into it. So maybe it's at last time for a new thread? I'll change the title (we can do that now right?) as the quality warrants

I must admit that is a tempting suggestion...

Episode 40 https://soundcloud.com/prowrestlingonly/world-cast-40 December 11, 1982 (WCCW 51) As the pieces continue to fall into place for Star Wars on Christmas night, the boys ruminate on various topics... -Goodbye Jay Saldi, we hardly knew ye -The Spoiler vs Jose Lothario: almost a good match -Just give 'em what the fans want: Manning, Manning, Manning -Flair and Fritz go Face to Face -King Kong Bundy is 90% classic King Kong Bundy in December, 1982 - The boys also share their memories of the recently departed Mr. Saito World Cast: Where Legends Live!

In the old days fans stopped going to shows if they disliked the product, now they spend more money than any fans ever and bitch about how much they dislike the product. At this rate, Vince will be a trillionaire before he dies

Saito/Fuji vs Strongbows feud is a hidden gem from 1982 WWF. RIP

The first Omega vs Okada match outside of Japan sounds like a good main event

God damn what a freakin tag title match on NXT tonight

Episode 39 https://soundcloud.com/prowrestlingonly/world-cast-39 December 4, 1982 (WCCW 50) The boys look at a, shall we say, unique episode of WCCW this week, including... -The Spoiler back in town! But whose side is he on? -Roberto Renesto back in town....*crickets* -MIDGETS!!!!!! -Wait for it...A Von Erich family duck hunting trip! -Good Ol' Al taking to the skies! -King Kong Bundy introducing Devastation Inc.! -....and, to ruin the buzz, a turd of a main event World Cast: Brian Adidas sucks

On my phone I'm getting ads like "meet your 40+ match" and for a site that makes wrestling belts for corporate achievements

It's not on New Japan World in the States because it aired live on AXS. I assume it will be available later on but no idea how soon

Second this sentiment

David Manning took ref's getting physical with wrestlers to its most ridiculous extreme in 1980s World Class. Horrible, horrible stuff, where he's actually feuding with wrestlers

Episode 38 https://soundcloud.com/prowrestlingonly/world-cast-38 November 27, 1982 (WCCW 49) The boys look at a solid offering from the territory this week, featuring... -Frank Dusek: big fan of the Minnesota North Stars -Jay Saldi and Bill Mercer: The Greatest Double Turn since Austin/ Hart 15 years later ~ A Special Analysis from the New Breed -Tim Brooks is a crazy, hobo drifter and we love it -David vs Kabuki in a kick ass main event World Cast: This week was a good week

Eh, it's pretty much been an NXT championship since right after the original tourney

Episode 37 November 20, 1982 (WCCW 48) As the clock ticks down closer and closer to Christmas Star Wars, with Kerry Von Erich finally getting a rematch with Ric Flair for the NWA title, the territory offers up a typical mixed bag. At least each segment improved on the last ... -Bugsy and Good Ol' Al vs The Checkmate/ Bill Irwin...eh -David vs Destroyer #2...work on that finisher, David -Freebirds vs Kabuki/Dragon...getting better -BUNDY BARES ALL...Hilarious exposé -Kerry vs Killer Tim Brooks...Fun, gritty little match World Cast: We haven't thrown in the towel yet!

Night 2 was awesome as well. I could be wrong, but I think the first night didn't sell out and the crowd was a bit subdued. The crowd for night 2 was red hot, doing soccer chants and popping huge for the finishes of the tag title match and the main event. Pete Dunne comes off as one of the biggest stars in wrestling

Watched night 1 and loved it. Tourney was well-booked, and top to bottom it was a great show. Watching night 2 in a couple hours. Should be a blast

I too do not know what a "shoutbox" is

Episode 36 https://soundcloud.com/prowrestlingonly/world-cast-36 November 13, 1982 (WCCW 47) The Freebirds continue to impress both the boys and the fans in 1982, but Dear God, this TV show is in a coma otherwise... -Kabuki AGAIN in a handicap match (at least the Samoan provides some laughs with multiple botches) -Is Destroyer #1 THE Destroyer...or is Kelly putting way too much thought into this -THAT match between The Checkmate and Bugsy -And, the piece de resistance, Fritz finally provides evidence of the bounty on Kerry (but something is a little fishy about the name on the check...) World Cast: We watch this dreck so you don't have to

It's my fault for clicking on it, but you could have added "UK tournament spoilers" maybe?

Damn good-looking belt though

Only match I watched from the show. Only one I cared about because Rousey feels real and, even though this is only her second televised match, her matches feel different and more important than anything else. Loved the match. Rousey is great. Having her chase the title is the right call. Can't wait for her next match

For some reason I don't think this will be a quickie like Taker vs Cena

Great fucking show

Yeah, a week later
