Yeah, totally underrated venue. Built in, I believe, 1919 and still standing, so coming up on its 100th anniversary. Hosted wrestling cards as far back as at least the early 30s, nearly twenty years before Stu began running shows there
-
Victoria Pavilion in Calgary, 1964. Sweet Daddy Siki as top heel before a crowd of prairie rednecks would probably be pretty fun
-
Yeah, that's a tough call. Storyline wise, he should probably be the guy to unseat Almas at the Mania weekend Takeover. My gut says he goes to the main roster after Mania though

Ricky Jackson replied to elliott's topic in Pro Wrestling
Well post a link to it then -
I'm intrigued. Do you have a link? http://prowrestlingonly.com/index.php?/topic/15429-a-thread-in-which-dylan-compares-various-wrestlers-to-hhh/?fromsearch=1

Forgot Sane vs Baszler Mae Young finals. That match was awesome
-
My favorite matches of 2017 in no particular order and based on nearly 100% WWE viewing as far as modern stuff is concerned Roode vs Strong NXT 7/5 Styles vs Lesnar Survivor Series Okada vs Omega Wrestle Kingdom Asuka vs Moon Takeover Brooklyn DIY vs Revival vs AOP Takeover Orlando Goldberg vs Lesnar Mania Dunne vs Bate UK tournament finals Almas vs McIntyre Takeover Houston Hardys vs The Bar trilogy 4/30, 6/4 and 7/9 Asuka vs Cross 6/28

Haven't got to that one yet. Sounds awesome!

Yeah, he becomes a really good promo very quickly and is no slouch in the ring either

World Cast: A WCCW Review
Ricky Jackson replied to Ricky Jackson's topic in Publications and Podcasts
Episode 0 https://soundcloud.com/prowrestlingonly/world-cast-0-1981-christmas-star-wars-xmas-special December 25, 1981 (Link to show: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9HIb3xzfEnlTFZ3cWpld0VwT1E/view?usp=sharing) Santa Claus is real folks, and this morning he just dropped a special World Cast episode for all the good boys and girls out there! Pete, Kelly and Johnny couldn’t get enough of the, shall we say, lesser elements of 1982 WCCW, so they decided to dip into 1981 and really wallow in the muck. Marvel at a not so exciting brass knuckles title match, a not so light challenger for the light heavyweight title, a not so easy to follow two ring 6-man tag team match, a not so impressive Texas Death match, and, yet again, a not so great battle royal. But the boys have the Christmas spirit and, like they always do, make watching a crummy show a whole lot of fun. Merry Christmas and thanks for listening to World Cast in 2017! -
The Only board that matters. Best place for discussion. Most of my Facebook friends are people I met on PWO (only a slight exaggeration) and it's responsible for all the hundreds of hours of podcasting I've done in the last nearly five years. Merry Christmas everyone

World Cast: A WCCW Review

Episode 18 https://soundcloud.com/prowrestlingonly/world-cast-18-star-wars-the-super-bowl-of-wrestling-review June 4, 1982 (WCCW 25, 26 & part of 28) Forget about trying to get tickets to that movie and join Pete, Kelly and Johnny for a double-sized look at Star Wars: The Super Bowl of Wrestling/Fritz Von Erich's Retirement Show, from a,..ahem...relatively well-attended Texas Stadium! The boys look at a crazy good ladies match, a hollow match featuring legendary luchadores, a contender for worst battle royal ever, an epic battle between Kerry Von Erich and Harley Race, and, of course, the "Immortal" Fritz Von Erich vs King Kong Bundy in a (the first ever?) Falls Count Anywhere match. So grab a seat (there are thousands to choose from) and join us for another wacky episode of World Cast! -
Im totally down with exploring the history of the Studd Slam Challenge from 82-83 since Titans went kaput just as we were starting that

I think Dick Graham legit thought Tama was Haku and vice versa for the entirety of the Islanders run

World Cast: A WCCW Review
Ricky Jackson replied to Ricky Jackson's topic in Publications and Podcasts
Which ones? Just the regular week to week tv? -
Takeover Brooklyn gets my vote based on just watching the Takeovers and WWE ppvs. War Games was very good too. I know I enjoyed a lot of the WWE shows but damn if i can recall any specific one off the top of my head. I remember the horrible bloated ones more
-
I loved the double ref tag. Just a good old school wrestling style angle-match. One of the better writers must be in charge of that storyline because pretty much everything else here is uninspired. I couldnt even be bothered to watch the main, even though I love AJ, because who the fuck cares about Jinder challenging after he's lost every match for the last month

Greg Valentine is the first that comes to mind Oh top 5, let me think

Not that I've ever seen or heard was out there, even on the garbage tapes for Flair vs Steamer -

Episode 17 https://soundcloud.com/prowrestlingonly/world-cast-17 June 26, 1982 (WCCW 27) We at World Cast pledge never, NEVER to miss a Wednesday...even if the recording date is screwed up and we have no choice but to release an episode slotted for early January as a fill in. AND THAT TIME IS NOW! Hopefully this isn't too confusing, as the boys jump ahead a few weeks to witness a pretty bland episode of World Class. But we have new commentators! (the backup tight end for the Cowboys?!?!) We have vignettes! (done poorly) We have extremely hairy wrestlers! (Well, just one) And through it all, we have Good Ol' Al to save us with another ** mindbender. Catch us next week for our regularly scheduled episode looking at Star Wars: The Super Bowl of Wrestling!!!!! (Let everyone else go nuts over The Last Jedi) -
Gargano vs Ohno was friggen great

Parv loses his smile = Parv stops watching wrestling = Titans cancelled just before we start 1983 = no chance at seeing Rogers Corner with Chunger in July 1983
