concrete1992

Shocked and amazed with how excited I am to see these shows in December. That isn't a rib.The biggest worry, as with all PWG shows, is that a lot of these matches will just get too much time. Trevor Lee vs. Kamaitachi is the perfect example as if it comes in at under 15 minutes, prefeably under 10, it is a PWG MOTYC. If they try to go BIG, which they probably will, the worst tendencies will come out. Liger vs. Hero is good at least. Though admittedly I am worried what sort of Liger we will get in the States. Hopeful for a highly energized one. If so this could be one of those 2016 matches that I never saw coming until it hit me. Castle vs. Gallagher is un-PWG in that this is Gallagher's first match there and I don't think he has ever faced Castle. The dynamic between the two is easily there as they are showman grapplers. Castle is more Kurt Angle-esque in that approach and Gallagher more...I don't want to say Johnny Saint but that's what is coming into my head.

http://wrestlingwithwords.com/podcast/we-dont-know-wrestling-final-defecation/ A more traditional We Don’t Know Wrestling this week which is to say there is a train wreck that exists here. First time guest Emil and long time host Fray join Sam. Nothing makes sense. So many poop jokes. So many “burials”. We didn’t even mention Dragon Gate! How could we have forgotten? Super Dragon and Gedo do not get so lucky.

Twitter is great. Thank you very much! I had no idea the goal was for this project to be some sort of standard or whatever. Though admittedly I was wondering if it was would be noted anywhere else though that wasn't important, was more of a curiosity thing. I don't believe Daniel Bryan's placement is telling at all as far as the process is concerned. For me being younger, though that becomes less truer by the day, this list has been as good a place as any to help develop my own baseline.

http://wrestlingwithwords.com/podcast/we-dont-know-wrestling-how-could-you-still-like-this/ Sam is back for a very different We Don’t Know Wrestling. This I have decided to ask several wrestling fans what got them into wrestling and why the heck they are still fans since wrestling is truly awful. This description won’t be too long since I hope you simply listen as I think each person brings a unique perspective to the same question. Disclaimer: There was some issues with the JR Goldberg recording but the content is too good and the nuggets are still there. Also sorry if audio levels are bad across the board. I TRIED!

It depends on the setting. For a live show I want it under the 3.5 hour mark at the absolute most. Anything past that makes it difficult not only to have energy for the show but god forbid travel back home. At the same time I have no real cares if I'm watching a show and it is extra long in this day and age. Mostly because we DO live in an age of streaming and I probably wasn't going to end up watching the whole show anyway.

http://wrestlingwithwords.com/podcast/we-dont-know-wrestling-the-split/ We are back this week as Sam is joined by Steven Lerner and Dustin Hales to discuss…wrestling? Yep. We talk about the Scenic City Invitational, THE BRAND SPLIT, Cody Rhodes wanting to be a big boy, and how the hot dog is a sandwich. How could you want to miss that? I have no idea what I’m doing.

I have a terrible time telling the timeline of my life but I remember making signs for a house show when I was like 9 or something. My dad told me RVD pointed at my sign but I was holding it so I couldn't see. I trusted him. Hopefully he didn't betray that trust at that age.

If more than one person is the top star, then nobody is the top star. Does there need to be A top star?

Even saying this makes me want to vomit because it clearly won't be even thought it should be :/

http://wrestlingwithwords.com/podcast/we-dont-know-wrestling-wdkw100-and-then-some/ Sorry if you are expecting a witty description cause I’m just not gonna do that this week. Kiss my grits. This is a wrestling podcast. Case Lowe is on. Fray joins in.

why? Because I have never once had enough time to listen to a podcast from this board in one sitting. And while I enjoy the long shows much of time (and have even done some myself), it would be nice to have at least one show that lasts about the length of a work commute and then it's over. Eventually I think something like this will happen and almost become a common occurance. Right now the gimmick is GO LONG or not to sacrifice detail. I don't think many shows have tried narrowing the focus of individual episodes.

As someone not as invested in whatever story there is, I thought it was a contender.

I edited it I guess there should be a uniformed format for the thread as I was just following the format of the nominations above me Also, questioning lack of punctuation while improperly using it in the same post is some what comical. Kill the thread.

I'm already voting YES to separating this into multiple threads because I just got really uncomfortable trying to work my way through this...okay I don't have a great attitude. Carry on.

Case, your list is a lovely piece of bizness.

Side Q: Anyone here purchase the wXw Season Pass for 2016?

What... ... ... What is art?

It would be better if we weren't celebrating WRESTLING which is objectively bad.

Funk in 2010s would go around bashing whatever fella got in front of him on indies. Flair would hold indies up for money. For Funk Forever.

THAT'S NOT HOW IT WORKS!

I read that as Funk not excelling in a certain major metric, sorry haha

What is that Funk comment in regards to?
