[1999-01-10-ECW-Guilty As Charged] Shane Douglas vs Taz
bradhindsight replied to Loss's topic in January 1999
Crowd was awful for this and it's only somewhat saved with Styles' commentary. Very traditional start, headlock takeovers, etc (how this fits Taz and his year long quest to get at Douglas is beyond me) and after a suplex or two by Taz with Shane bailing, they take to the crowd for a long extended brawling segment that is honestly one of the worst I've ever seen. The crowd, equipped with their Bass Pro Shop hats and disposable Kodak cameras are just mobbing both guys and security. They go all the way to the top for nothing really, other than to both blade I guess, and then they work their way back down. Shane has control now, which really kills off the crowd and Taz goes through a table in the corner. Sabu comes out for his revenge and destroys both guys. The kickout by Taz was the first time the crowd really reacted, outside of yelling at Francine. The Candido stuff makes Taz look even worse but he finally gets Douglas to pass out and win the belt. The entire thing is under ** in my opinion and really disappointing.- 5 replies

Digging in the Crates #2 - w/ Phil and Kris
bradhindsight replied to bradhindsight's topic in Publications and Podcasts
Hit refresh - you should see a link now. Shortly after publishing, I re-inserted the audio. -
Will is joined by Pete and Johnny Sorrow (Titans of Wrestling) to run down the latest PPV from ROH. Pete and WIll give the listeners a taste of the live experience and Johnny runs down the show watching from home. Can Jay Lethal handle two matches in one night? Are the Young Bucks the best live act in wrestling? Should the Briscoe Brothers be higher up on the card? Why didn't Pete cheer during the AJ Styles match? Tune in and find out! http://placetobenation.com/ptbn-reaction-show-rohs-all-star-extravaganza-7/

A big congrats to Where the Big Boys Play for reaching their milestone 75th show. It was quite an honor to be on episode 50 (fantasy draft and booking winner, plus the debut of Evil Jim Herd) and Starrcade '90 (heavily boosted my drawing credentials given the numbers). The time and passion put into this top 100 exercise was impressive - and something I can't wait to see evolve as you guys delve into different material. WTBBP is and will always be a pillar at Place to Be Nation. When we launched it was one of two shows (with PTB of course) that we built things off of. I'll always remember building and firing off all those archived shows right as we launched the site on June 1, 2013. From there we've grown into so much more, and WTBBP is really at the genesis of that.

Yeah I'm not in that camp. There's no way they improvised the refs raising each guy's arm and the complete restart. What did the Observer say?

I think this would be the right thread, but if not, please forgive me but I'd love to see and discuss Chad's joshi that made his top 100 (can be spoiler tagged - it's a must listen).

I'm in the camp where I liked Amell being the FIP instead of the guy who got the hot tag. I don't think there was enough actual heat that a big confrontation with Stardust needed to be milked in the match. Amell had some nice spots too in his comeback - the enziguri was great.

Parv - ask him if he has any more Flair!

I watched the Low-Ki / Dickinson match prior to listening and agree completely with the Davey Richards comparison (on the surface at least). First thing that popped in my head, highlighted by his very spotty selling (if at all) during this one. I also liked his heelish-ness, including the eye poke (crowd hated that) and Low-Ki's selling of it while he floundered at Dickinson's face trying to poke him back. Thought that was very good. Low-Ki's punch flurry was insane and the best spot of the match. I thought he was awesome throughout. Very believable (and thought he sold the variety of submissions real well). Good stuff guys.

[1982-09-02-AJPW] Terry Funk vs Jerry Blackwell
bradhindsight replied to Superstar Sleeze's topic in September 1982
This is such a cool match. Terry with the text book underdog vs. the monster performance. Loved Blackwell's punches. Blood. Headbutts (!). Logical finish that built off Terry trying to bodyslam him right off the bat. Highly recommended.- 2 replies
