https://soundcloud.com/wedontknowwrestling/we-dont-know-wrestle-kingdom-1 Case Lowe and Sam decide to start this little series of shows where we go through all the Wrestle Kingdoms. We start with the very first which was main evented by a group of older lads. You also have Toshiaki Kawada vs. Shinsuke Nakamura and Yuji Nagata vs. Minoru Suzuki. And other stuff of course. Really looking forward to doing this series and gaining some insight on the event that is a massive staple for many wrestling calendars.

Meaning, disliking the promotional style of Memphis [Pick a promotion or such of your choosing] versus saying "AMERICAN WRESTLING IS TRASH!". So to say you don't prefer the WWE style is not saying you don't enjoy WCW or ROH. To say you don't enjoy Lucha is to say you don't enjoy a country's representation of wrestling (not saying that is what you are saying btw).

I know it is ultimately unfair but I feel alright when someone is negative towards a promotional style versus something more cultural.

I mean in the past 5 years or so. Whenever the Fed dropped blood, more or less.

Does saying "modern cage vs. modern ladder" change the discussion for you?

We have certainly stolen it. Which is what we do.

We are going to try and do a GWE podcast every couple of months. Easily are most informative podcast and I'd like to do more in that vein going forward.

https://soundcloud.com/wedontknowwrestling/wrestling-is-objectively-bad This week the boys bring on Warren Taylor to discuss...well things I guess. Young Bucks, Alberto Del Rio, and a whole lot of nothing. The usual when you get down to it. Wrestling fans are all dumb and weird. We get into that. PLUG: twitter.com/WarrenETaylor Also, actually put the download button on so WOO!

They gave a reasoning on Facebook but whether that is the whole story or not I couldn't tell you. The tl:dr version of that is that they didn't want to have the company go to the point where they would have to close. I mean they are an indie so the money isn't obviously crazy. They've also been going for like ten years.

Also going to repost my Watertown thoughts from Wrestling Forum FOR THE 2CW HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP: "Hybrid" Sean Carr, 2CW Champion VS. "Chainsaw" Joe Gacy, Challenger Actually really looking forward to this one. Gacy is kinda getting the short end of the 2CW stick in a way where I think he could have been a real fixture for the company in 2016 like a Sami Callihan was. Gacy is a regular for Xcite Wrestling which operates in Binghamton,NY and is likely to have to fill some of the gap left by 2CW. Happy to see though he's at the very least going to get this opportunity to have a hoot of match with Sean Carr who is fun talent. I would describe Carr as a kid that grew up watching Attitude Era flyers like RVD, Lynn, Hardy Boyz, ect. and had decided to just do that. SPECIAL ATTRACTION: John Morrison (Johnny Mundo) VS. Johnny Gargano Quite frankly I am not high on Gargano right now. I am a fan of Mundo though and he had one of the better matches of the year against Ricochet who is someone I am also not predisposed to enjoying. That at least makes me optimistic about this one and hopefully it delivers past my expectations. TAG TEAM ATTRACTION: To Infinity and Beyond (Cheech & Colin Delaney) VS. Oi4k (Dave & Jake Crist) This should just be a nutty spotfest and I'm all for it. STIPULATION: TBD - ONE LAST T IME Watertown's Own Jay Freddie VS. "Juggernaut" Jason Axe One of the most intense feuds 2CW has run. Scratch that, THE most intense feud they've ever run. In Freddie's hometown on one of the last 2CW shows ever I expect them to bust out all the tricks to make it a memorable last go. Interested to see the gimmick they decide to go with. SINGLES MATCH: Pepper Parks VS. Gregory Iron Not exactly a match I'm thrilled about. SINGLES MATCH: "Slyck" Wagner Brown VS. TBD TAG TEAM ATTRACTION: Brute VanSlyke & Kevin "The Man" Graham VS. TBD Michael Christopher Open Challenge !

Honestly not sure how much this match will appeal to most here but god damn am I excited to see it. I think if you are going to run a nutty, out of control, spotfest, it might as well be a trios match. Also, they just sold out their final show on 12/20.

Poor use of the word work rate that is all.

Bumping him because Tanner said he wanted to give a REAL case for. Don't want him to forget.

Now. Sorry, every time I go to upload a podcast I have to do it twice and inevitably I forget to edit the permissions the second time around. GOOD TO GO THOUGH!

I went from finding Parv's comments silly to thinking he really shouldn't submit a ballot. Granted I think the way he is going about it has pushed me to believe he shouldn't interact with ANYONE on a message board. Not submitting a ballot because one doesn't feel others are giving it the proper care is simply wrong in my eyes. It is slap in the face to those who have committed time to this project. Why bother do the project, amirite? We all haven't put enough thought into it. It is disappointing that someone with a valid reason, Loss, wasted their defense on someone who didn't deserve any of it.

I swear to god if a Wrestling Match HOF Project runs while the Greatest Match Ever gets into full swing...

Have your cake and eat it too, brothers.

I'm young so that is okay but half of you will be dead by 2026. Seems short sighted.

One person from the beginning knowing this process wouldn't be for them is one thing. One person realizing everyone else's process isn't for them is another. EDIT: Also, who said this would happen every 10 years? I haven't read where that is firm.

https://soundcloud.com/wedontknowwrestling/not-the-greatest-podcast-ever Don't let the name fool ya. Sam brings on the mysterious Tanner and JR Goldberg for this week's podcast dedicated to the Greatest Wrestler Ever Project over at ProWrestlingOnly.com. It is a real hoot and kind of informative thanks to JR. We talk #1s, we talk gaps, and we talk some real pro wrestling. You better believe that. The most important thing you come away from this podcast with is that lucha is a real blast. Yep, that's it. Sam shows no bias in this description.

You GUARANTEE? There's a million and one services. Why should I bother with Monster Factory? Like...I barely have enough time for things that are also free.

The best thing about Makabe is the Spider Suplex. Mostly I'm a mark for the move since I used it regularly as a signature move in Smackdown Vs. Raw. Was a tremendous way to set up high flying moves. Makabe gets it.

Please add Sting vs. Jeff Hardy to the list there cheapshot.

For a #1 contender, which if I think you plan on voting for lucha wrestlers he's at least in the discussion, it seems odd to have him with so little fanfare as far as this thread is concerned. Negro Casas is great and has been great for too long to consider anything less than a top flight wrestler. Where's Casas's peak? Seems pretty shady to call someone who may be one of the Top 5 or 10 wrestlers in the planet for each year of this decade to be considered well past his peak. Maybe I'm naive. Honestly, based on just the 2010s he would probably have to make my ballot. That would neglect that he's had more than two decades of GOODNESS to back that up.

I have it on good authority that this isn't true
