I do feel that by having to do it live and not getting multiple takes to do it over if needed the fact that they won't edit the scene together from multiple takes brings this much closer to wrestling that a movie fight scene.

Choreographed fight sequences performed in front of a live crowd, I don't know much about Wushu but it seems to me that it in some ways is basically pro-wrestling but i'm sure others would disagree. See the link below and other than the fact that it has no real winner as such tell me why isn't this pro-wrestling https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3LflYoeQyU

I've decided I'm gonna try to get involved in this but started with a bunch of grumpy posts this morning right as I woke up, so maybe it's a bad start. This is less likely to expose me to as much new stuff as GWE did so I'll probably not enjoy it as much but whatevs. Oh and Matt mentioned Chekov's gun, that can great in matches when done in a creative way but is shitty if its just the tries for a big move and it's avoided so then we know the 2nd time its tried that it's gonna work.

While I'm not on here all the time like I was when GWE was going on, it is the only message board i still visit so that's some real points in this place's favor. Good website, good people happy christmas

Isn't this a shoot? doesn't really count

Was talking to two lads in work about this today who both think Conor will win. Arguments like McGregor is younger & bigger. He's always won when people said he wouldn't, like with the Aldo knockout. It's fucking insane. Oh and the betting odds are preposterous, i've placed a substantial wager on Mayweather. Build hasn't been good compared to McGregor - Diaz or Mayweather - De La Hoya 10 years ago

Those three are great picks

I'm a huge fan of the cover of Wild Thing that Onita comes out to

[1983-04-07-AJPW] Genichiro Tenryu vs Kerry Von Erich
El McKell replied to JKWebb's topic in April 1983
The moment i heard the first bars of Eye of the Tiger and saw Kerry riding on a horse shirtless in slow motion i knew i was about to see something special. The actual match was not special, early Tenryu kinda sucks from what i've seen of him. ** -
These four episodes were quite a lot of fun, although I was dissapointed Jeff didn't give us the burial of Magnum - Tully that he promised us at the end of episode 3

When Don left New York and is the middle of nowhere he goes to some fundraiser with war veterans in the PWG building. -

PWG only runs in one building now and yeah that was it. That building also appeared in the 2nd last episode of Mad Men. -
Plenty of times. Literally just cried on Saturday seeing Mark Haskins celebrating after beating Ryan Smile live at an OTT show. This decision was then reversed which killed the moment.

How is that a squash match? If a commentator at one point in the match says that the person who ultimately won showed 'great resiliency' there's no way it's a squash

It's gotta be Kenta Kobashi 2003 to 2005 for me
-
This. He just wanted a rating to say it was a little better than the Dome match, don't think about what it means about how much better he thinks it is than other 5 star matches or if you could have a *****1/2 star match or whatever

Wright gives Tiger basically nothing in the match, dominates the whole thing, kills the Tiger Mask aura by outshining Tiger, doing cartwheels and shit to get out of holds and even gets out of the way on the outside so Tiger can't do a dive

Buddy Rose vs. Jay Youngblood (2/3 falls) (4/11/81)
El McKell replied to goodhelmet's topic in Matches
Gotta give these guys enormous props for finishing a fall with a side headlock and making it seem like a believable and dramatic finish. Also, this is almost definitely the best Buddy Rose singles match i've seen -
Weirder smark obsession: Roman Reigns or Women's hair?
El McKell replied to stro's topic in Pro Wrestling
'Sports Entertainment' is also term that WWE characters are not allowed to say on screen anyway -
Weirder smark obsession: Roman Reigns or Women's hair?
El McKell replied to stro's topic in Pro Wrestling
I wouldn't give a shit if it was just medical facility instead of hospital but because there's dozens of this little things that everyone has to say characters in WWE end up coming across as weird and unnatural.
