Marty Scurll on commentary for this one. This is Strong Style Wrestling at its best in this match , if your not a fan then you won't like this match at all , but if you like Strong Style Wrestling then you will love this match , as I did! Hero and Tommy lay into each other with massive chops to start , both guys obsorbing and taking the fulllbrunt of each shot. "Idiot on Idiot violence" - Marty Scurll Both wrestlers take it to the outside and continue the violence into the crowd , the roundhouse kicks that both guys are delivering are loud and very impactful. Spinning elbows , spinning jumping roundhouse kicks to the face and head! This match becomes so out of control with just insane back and fourth blows that it would make any normal man crumble into a little ball. This is some of the hardest most impactful and deadliest blows that I ever seen in a wrestling match! This rivals the Ishii and Shibata wrestlekingdom match this year for pure impact of blows and strong style match . I have been watching wrestling for over 30 years , I can't for the life of me remember a time I seen this type of insanity in the form of Strong Style. It's unbelievable unless you see it! These guys are beating the shit out of each other and they are asking for more and taking every thing that each other has. It's must be mentioned that Scurll is just howling everytime they lay into each other and burying the match , saying its stupid and they are dumb for letting each other hit each other. It actually makes for a very entertaining commentary. So Hero goes for a pile driver off the second rope , and he nails it! It really looks like he has killed Tommy. I was shaking my head during this spot in disbelief that they would do this , it looked so deadly. Tommy manages to kick out...Two... Hero tries to end this match now and he is going for the kill , he can sense it and he is looking like a shark in water that smells blood. BUT. Tommy End , Ends this. Tommy can End you at any time and he has shown it here again , he catches Hero with a roundhouse , Hero goes down , Tommy climbs the ropes , double foot stomp and pin. It's over. Tommy wins. This is just a pure hard hitting back and fourth slug fest , like I said at the start if you don't like strong style then you won't like this match at all because that is what this match is all about. I give this 4*..it's a wired one to rate because it's so heavy in just back and fourth clubbing each other and both allowing each other to do it.

Super Strong Style 16 Tournament in London England. Match starts off with intense stare down from both competitors across the ring from each other. They rush towards each other both looking for the early kill. Tommy End lands a roundhouse kick that takes Callihan's head off! Sami is out! Its over already , or so it seems , Sami kicks out on two. Two!....Sami gets outside the ring , Tommy follows , Callihan manages to shake the kick off and starts to get his wits about him , he starts fighting back and manages to get the upper hand outside of the ring , they are brawling and throwing each other into chairs and fighting through the crowd. Its intense fighting from Callihan as he picks up his pace and starts to really take the fight to Tommy End , besides that opening kick its all Callihan at this point and he has really taken the fight to End outside of the ring , they get back into the ring only to have Callihan still in firm control and dishing out everything possible to finish End off , he nails a double stuff Tombstone that looks deadly and it seems like Callihan might win this but Tommy kicks out on two. Sami is relentless with the offense trying to finish this. Out of nowhere End lands a kick that knocks Callihan silly! Its over. Sami is out and he is not waking up. The count is three. Tommy End has managed to end this match from out of nowhere and pick up the victory. Tommy End is deadly and dangerous at all time during his matches. He can End you out of nowhere with his roundhouse kicks that for the most part always look like they are killer shots. Short match , Tommy gets the out of nowhere win and looks like a force to be reckoned with for the future. 2 1/2 * match in my opinion. Would have liked to see it go longer and more offense from Tommy but it was setting up context for later in the night when End faces former partner Chris Hero!

I am not shocked you find it crazy but that's the end to this for me. Do you like Progress Wrestling TG?, come over to the microscope thread and we can talk about something that I want to talk about instead of this.

Ok , I slandered Dave. I admit this. I apologize to those who got offended from the act of slander. I am finding this very ironic in a way. I could come up with loads of evidence to support my attack on his credibility but I feel that I should hold my stance and admit to the slander without defense.
-
sooo what are you arguing again? You have totally put everything I have said out of context and have put intentions to my words. Your the one trolling here pal! You do your quoting of my words and put intentions on them that I don't have! That is trolling! I don't see what your arguing me about at all? Your arguing with yourself here. What I am getting from this interaction with you today is that you don't like Prichard , don't like Meltzer and everything else is just a bunch of fluff without any argument at all. You have agreed with me countless times but then attack if I say anything bad about Meltzer , so that makes me think that your full of crap and actually do care a great deal about Dave Meltzer. It is either that scenario I just laid out or you have nothing better to do today and just like to kill threads dead and then blame somebody else for doing so! I am done with you and have tried to be done with you since the first interaction I had with you. I made the comments and I stick by everyone of them about Dave Meltzer , but to think that you can bring me any type of relevant opinion on this is just a waste of time for me. You obviously would go on and on and on regardless of what the topic is. I cant waste anymore time on this buddy. Seriously you need to move on. This is the second time now I will be asking you to move on from this , the first time I asked you attacked me by saying I am recoiling and shying away from a serous argument and discussion. I am sorry if I don't consider this as a very meaningful or deep conversation with you , I am getting nothing of value at all from your comments and I find them to be reactionary at best. So please again I ask you to take your baggage and your need to argue about something and leave me out it. Stop taking my words and putting context to them and giving them intentions that I don't have! Is that possible for you to do? or would you like to continue ranting on?

Ok. I am not convinced that Meltzer is the most respected Wrestling Journalist , so no I am not accusing the most respected Journalist of anything. Listen now carefully fellas. I AM A SMART MARK! What is wrong with that? Is this a horrible term or offensive to anybody? If its offensive to you then tell me why? To think your not a smart mark when your browsing Wrestling forums and discussing things that is based on a foundation of a "Work" is just ludicrous. Calm down guys , if anybody needs any evidence to what I am talking about then just take a look at your reactions to my comments. Your smart marks....who the hell cares!! What is offensive about this at all? Meltzer is not a Journalist and your not going to convince me otherwise. I respectfully excepted your guys opinions on the issue and have moved on , I don't have time to care if you respectfully except my stance on this issue , that is the biggest waste of time for myself to do that , and its a huge waste of time for anybody to try and change my mind. We are all smart marks , live with it guys. Also I never asked anybody to respectfully except my stance on this. I said simply that I respect YOUR stance on this. THREAD Killer , if you look back you will see you are putting intentions to my words and are actually accusing me of intending things that I don't actually intend. Its another example of the work that Dave Meltzer has done for 30 years....so I can see how you stick up for his work.

So just to be clear...you're suggesting that at points "throughout history" some wrestling companies have given Meltzer money to rate their matches five stars, so they could sell more DVD's? Yes , thats exactly what I am saying , and not only DVDs but he is a huge contributor to bringing awareness good or bad to companies. He is a great tool used to propel business. I am sure him and Vince McMahon have sat down and discussed business that would benefit both parties involved , I find it very bizarre that in the world of wrestling that this would be so hard to belive. Its ok as a fan to belive that professional wrestling is a work , but it's not ok to think that Meltzer is also a work? Why would I think that Meltzer is legit or has an agenda that is anything but the same agenda as the companies he "reports" about? Meltzer is a tool for the professional wrestling buisness to make money. Period. That's his role. Media in general is used to propel buisness , it's used that way in every aspect of life not only Professional Wrestling. Media makes money for Corporate structures propelling ideas and ideologies , that's why it's crazy for me to think that in the Wrestling world this would be unique and different. Lets both move on from this topic and conversation , I am sure we both have better stuff to do and would probably both benefit from just leaving it alone. I understand your position and respect it , so let's move on now.

Just throwing this out about the Meltzer argument. Think about this for a minute , Meltzer HAS and always will take money from guys in the industry who want certain information leaked , he was on the "Take" in many different instances throughout history , if you think otherwise or don't want to believe this is the case then you are the perfect example of what "smart mark" is. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if Meltzer is and always has been on the payroll of many companies throughout history. Would his five star rating on a match get fans to buy certain DVDs or videos back in the day? Wrestling companies love this guy! Give me a break , just because they pretend that they have heat with this guy means NOTHING.

[1983-02-25-Houston Wrestling] Nick Bockwinkel vs Chavo Guerrero
Therealheel replied to shoe's topic in February 1983
Just watched this match and I got to say that I agree with everything said about the idea of this match was to get Chavo over as a credible contender to that championship. I have to credit Paul Bosch and his commentating for the way he explains the reasoning of why this is a non title match and why it was Bocks decision to not give credit to Chavo and that he is not a valid contender in Bocks eyes. This commentary sets up the post interviews perfectly with Chavo expanding on Bosch's commentary during the match , furthering the story and perception of the angle. Chavo does a nice job showing his passion and fire wanting a title shot , and then Bock come in with his own Interview with Bosch and even furthers the story more setting the stage for an awesome rematch. Bock is awesome when he goes into bashing Texas and Texans , I find the way he does it is genius and its perfect when working this Huston fan base. I hope the rematch comes up on the service soon and I agree that Bock will work a completely different style in that one. In this match it was very evident that Bock was making Chavo look like a million bucks and putting him over as a legit contender. That wont happen in the rematch. -
I can see that your on the side of Meltzer in this and that's fine. I am not so extreme in my view and opinion on this matter , but almost neutral to both sides , I can see both guys having an agenda and both guys pulling carny type tactics at times during the years , Prichard is not the only one who is a playing Carny , for you to think that Meltzer is not part Reporter and part Carny would be a mistake. Dave has been discredited and shown to be a lier and misinforming the people , so that can't be forgotten. I was saying that Prichard has reconfirmed my suspicions about Meltzer from day one and I have never trusted or felt his opinion to be anything of real value over anybody else. The "new Heights" I was talking about was directed not at Prichard taking it to new levels but personalities within this community here on PWO and PTBN doing so. I am not worried about my own judgement when it comes to viewing wrestling but I am concerned with the blind following and excepting of Meltzer as King within the wrestling community as a whole , that's my main concern here and I think that you may have reconfirmed my thoughts and added to my arguement with your Tirade about Prichard as if Meltzer is above and has been above Carny tactics himself , that's an example of blind following that I am talking about. I see Prichards side of the arguement and I am open to Meltzers side as well and I can't hold any one of them in higher regard to my own , that would be foolish on my part to do so. I must say that Prichard and his Something to Wrestle with Podcast has given me way more insight into the past and times of the WWE or WWF then Meltzer has ever given me , and this has been in just a very short time. I do sub to Daves News letter to this day and find it entertaining but it doesn't bring me anywhere near the level of information and insight that Prichard has been privalaged to be a part of. You can't condemn a guy for having a real INSIDE job like Prichard did for years , and I feel that's what you just tried to do with your last post. Does he walk the company line at times? Sure , but Dave also walks the company lines that he created for himself and his brand. It's called business and they both are great at it , so for me to totally bury anyone of them in the fashion you did is harsh and one sided. I can see people getting upset at this topic and at my opinions of Meltzer but my opinion is not actually a bad one , it's a meer look at the fact that other people have an opinion that is just as good or even more informed then Meltzer. Why would that be so hard to except without a lashing to the guy who is pointing this out?
-
Yeah. I love Dave, as for over 20 years he's been responsible for me checking out more wrestling domestically & internationally that I otherwise wouldn't have. I also don't doubt his intentions when watching matches, but we've been on different wavelengths a lot whether it be this pairing, Charlotte/Sasha HIAC, or the barrage of snowflakes that are thrown at just about every single NJPW main event and G1 match. And I'm probably a bigger New Japan fanboy than most. Yet the Observer arriving every Monday is still a tremendous highlight. Hopefully its far, far, far off, but we're in trouble if & when he decides to call it a day. I disagree that we are in trouble when Dave calls it a day. I feel that what is happening here on PWO and with PTBN podcasts that we as a community have grabbed the ball and are running with it in a very positive way , people on here are looking at wrestling and viewing matches in ways that Dave Meltzer wishes he could have been able do 20 years ago! I think that guys need to recognize that Dave is, and was great , but to say that we can't move on without him is a bit harsh. Dave is not the only guy who is capable of introducing great wrestling to the masses , what we have going on here and the plans for the future that PTBN has shown me is far and beyond anything Dave is doing and the bar is being raised emensly every day from people who also deserve to have a voice and a valued opinion. Bruce Prichard has really opened my eyes towards Meltzer recently , he is confirming thoughts I have always had as a wrestling fan growing up when it came to my opinions of Daves work over the years. I am of the opinion of putting Meltzer in the back seat and letting new drivers guide us towards new heights. I mean look at the way he attacks Prichard , a guy who actually created the stuff he wrote about in the past , and now he slanders Bruce every chance he gets. I am moving away from everything Meltzer has done and I would recommend that others start doing the same.

Marty , I feel had his best work in Progress wrestling. He is best when he is on his home soil , and yes he does play up his gimmick a lot but I cant for the life of me figure that's a knock on the guy. This guy will make his mark on the wrestling world in a big way in the very near future , he has much more potential and staying power then a Will Osprey does. He had a match on Progress titled Villain vs Hero (Chris hero) which I recommend , the build and match hits and delivers on all angles. I recommend that match , also his recent BOLA win is going to be viewed more and will be talked about in length in the next couple of weeks as the DVD get shipped and watched more often. So Marty is coming up and he wont be somebody who you can miss.

This is Progress! Hello Wrestling fans , this is a topic created and geared towards the On Demand service provided by Progress Wrestling in England. I want to create discussion and awareness of this fantastic service that provides great wrestling of all styles! Some of the best new talent have made a name for themselves here and some of the best matches on the planet in the past couple years have come from performers such as Will Osprey , Marty Scurll , Tommy End , Jimmy Havok and many others! The service has every major show it has ever ran. The shows are setup in Chapters and each chapter has a unique name for each show. It's a very creative company with lots of potential and loads of room for growth , the fan base is very loyal and passionate to the promotion and the energy comming from the audience makes for a very enjoyable program. The price for the service is 7 dollars and it's worth every penny , the shows are uploaded reasonably quickly and they are in very good quality and the production is major league. I recommend starting from chapter one , but it's easy to start anywhere and you will quickly fall in love with this company and become a loyal fan for years to come. Early on in the companies history has some fantastic Jimmy Havok and Will Osprey stuff that is unique to say the least. All you Progress Wrestling On demand Subsribers lets start a conversation about the shows we watch and let's put over this great company! What have you been enjoying with Progress? Have you been to any shows? Experiences with Progress? Let's chat!

Lots of controversy surrounding the finish of the Main Event. I made a comment in this thread very early on Saturday before the event , and I commented on how it would be in the best Interest for the WWE to beat Lesner here and have Goldburg do it in a strong way , I think people might have to get used to this because Lesner is going to be loosing more in the future. Think about it , Lesner is NOT coming back after his contract expires and it would only make sense to use him to propel other guys and other stories. Ask yourself this question? Why would they continue keeping Lesner strong when he's just going to leave and then shit all over his time In the WWE? Why allow this bastard to do this? His character and personality sucks! What? you guys just want him to stand and bounce around all day? Come on now. It was not working! So yes , beat the fuck , over and over again until he leaves. I was all for this booking , and honestly it's the smartest piece of business this company has done in the past 2 years. Good for WWE here!

I have come out of NXT Toronto with one very ugly opinion regarding the crowds of these shows that are coming to these WWE events lately and for the past year. What is wrong with you people?! Why cant you just shut the hell up during the match and react to what is happening IN the match? Would that be so hard to do? react to the program? is that so hard nowadays to do this? Example: Roode vs Dillinger - This match would and could have been soooo much better and had that potential going on inside that ring last night , those two had a great program in mind during that match but I feel it couldn't be executed the way they had planned and wanted , and I feel it was because of the crowd in Toronto not paying attention! Pay attention! So many things in that match was just lost because of the commentary not doing a good job or the crowd just not recognizing great spots , they react to the stupid things!! and in the meantime while they are putting the focus on things that don't matter they miss what is happening , missing good spots too! Good spots go without notice but yet stupid shit is getting the attention. Its sad man. I have such a hard time these days watching this product because of how ignorant the crowds are towards the work. I might take Wrestling to seriously and maybe I am expecting to much , but I cant be the only one thinking these things. OK so the commentary? They suck! I am sorry but what a problem WWE has with adding substance and "meat" to a program. They add nothing , and actually take away from matches and events. The wrestling in the ring is the best it has ever been but yet it comes off as lame as fuck! Why is that? what is going on here? Its colour that needs to be added to these matches....they have none! With all that out of the way , I enjoyed the Wrestling and the performances from the Talent. The Tag team Championship match was 4* and a great match , but surprisingly my favorite match of the night was Asuka vs Mikey James , I was into this the whole way , with James really impressing me and I feel that it was the best match Asuka has had so far in NXT. I enjoyed that match more then her Bailey ones. I think Mikey James could have a few matches on the main roster now after what I seen from her last night. I think a James vs Sasha banks could be good , also a match with Charlotte I would be interested to see , shit even a Becky Lynch match VS James would get me to tune in. Samoa Joe vs Nakamura I am ok with Joe winning this and I am under the impression that this is not going to continue. I hope it doesn't continue and Nakamura can move on from here and go to the Main Roster , with the Rumble coming up he needs to be in that match....Finn Balor I think is also going to be coming back around that time from injury , so now you could have Balor and Nakamura as surprise entrants to the Rumble match. Joe? Well that's no a huge question for me. Is a Joe vs Regal match or program in the works? Could Regal still wrestle? is he able? Samoa Joe vs Regal at the next Take Away? Good match but not match of the night. 3 1/2 for me on this one. 7 out of 10 for the show as whole and pretty much what I expected from this card. @roadtonewjapan1 Twitter Road to New Japan G1 climax Pilot now available on Soundcloud . Go listen.

So...if Joe looses tonight , what happens with him? What would you guys do with him? I would put Joe Vs Lesner WM33 , it's the best opponent for Lesner and it's believable if Joe beats him. Sort of. What would you think about a Shield 2.0 faction? Samoa Joe joins with Rollins , Ambrose and Roman to rejoin a new shield group that doesn't go with the brand splits and declair themselves free agents and they all cause havoc on both shows! They could start by ruining the main event of the "Series" matches and just go into business for themselves , also to get even more heat , they could also ruin the main event by laying Goldberg and Lesner out at the end of the show. WWE needs to get their shit together because as I just demonstated with this angle they have so much potential that is available to them.

[1978-01-06-Houston Wrestling] Al Madril vs Killer Karl Krupp
Therealheel replied to shoe's topic in January 1978
Its weird but Killer Karl Krupp has weirdly worked his way into my watching and has caught my eye. I guess he was very well known in Canada mostly in New Brunswick and worked up here for many years , but I find his work to be slow and boring , but his Heel work and the way people respond to him is what meets my interests and makes him appealing for me. Krupp does things very simply and effectively , his timing on heat spots are top notch and his ability to raise the heat spot into something White Hot is just remarkable. Its been a welcoming surprise for me to see a guy who does so little but yet gets such a great reaction! Wrestlers nowadays need to look at this and rethink the way they work. Its effective and simple. -
This match is covered in detail on Road To New Japan 's G1 Climax Pilot Episode. A highly recommended match , this is slow at first and can loose you pretty quickly but I can assure you that If you stick around for the middle and finish you will not be disappointed if you do. I like this match and recommend it because it shows a great example of the Japanese fans and how they can become very hostile when a hero they love is being threatened or taken advantage of. The energy switch and extreme reaction to the situation that is going on is very entertaining. If you like blood and a great heat spot that gets tons of heat within a few minutes and explodes a crowd then this is the match for you. Its on NJPW world and its one of the only matches in 1974 that they have , and a great little surprise is awaiting you the moment you press play on the video. @roadtonewjapan1 on twitter

It was silly to not have a pay -per-view in Toronto for that long , I don't see the logic behind that decision. I was at the last Calgary pay per view that was Canadian Stampede , I was row 6 floor seats for that one , best show I have seen and best memories in Wrestling that I have experienced , but yes its also silly that WWE has not come back to Calgary , they did do one in Edmonton I think later but I was gone by that time. I know the Stampede boys that do the Podcast also went to that Card in Calgary so they know what it was about and have done a wonderful job describing that atmosphere in the building that night. Toronto has always been a hot crowd and tonight should be no different. I think Lesner is in for a rude awaking tonight in that Building and will be getting the loudest boos possible and everybody knows how Toronto fans can be unpredictable and vocal , well I am feeling from the Canadian Audience a very dislike and discord towards Lesner slowly building , the only thing that could keep him protected from this is that he is being billed from Canada now and this could just throw my whole theory out the window , but I think my biggest intrigue of this show is the way the fans are going to be on Sunday , that's what I am looking forward to most. Its the biggest mystery of the show I think....
-
I was not aware of a pay -per -view ban in Toronto , how and when did this come about ? Is that a Meltzer rumor? or is it legit? I have never heard of a ban. Do you have the back story to this? I am excited for this card which I never thought I would be , I was crapping all over the Goldberg stuff before it began but this has become a great little build and has been better then I ever expected it to be. I am feeling that Goldberg is going to actually win this match , I know that sounds crazy but I feel it coming and I do think it would be the smartest piece of business that could be done. Lets say you have Goldberg go over Lesner that causes a stir within the WWE Universe that is much needed at this time , and honestly Lesner has to change things up soon because I see people shitting all over this guy in the future , this guy is brutal in the ring and shows no fire and this is becoming very evident in his work and I find him to be very disrespectful , and is he really that big of a draw? really? I don't see it , so why does everybody cater to this guy? This perception of Lesner need to be turned on its head and I think the smartest piece of business would to actually start beating this guy...on a regular basis...along with beating him the Story would be based around the reality of him mailing it in and not showing respect to wrestling fans and Wrestling , if he wanted to play into this role and Embrace it then I think he could be a wonderful "REAL" Heel but I do think a major part of the success would be beating him , not killing him dead but slowly beat him down and build others in the process , lets face it the guy is not going to be around after his contract expires and he wont be back , so with the time you have with him why not use this opportunity to build guys up using Lesner. I take offense to Lesner and his work , and I think lots of fans do as well , so why not use this for story purposes. So I guess a question would be to everybody reading this is , Do you think beating Lesner would be the best way to propel this idea , or would this work better keeping him a dominate force? What do you guys think?

PWO Pilot: Road to New Japan's G-1 Climax
Therealheel replied to bradhindsight's topic in Publications and Podcasts
Hello Everybody , I am Cody , your host for the Road To New Japan Pro Wrestling and I wanted to introduce myself as the host and let you in on the direction that this podcast is looking to go in the future. If anybody has listened to the show yet then you will have noticed I am a one man show , so its challenging at times but yet it pushes me to keep a high energy pace that can make for some interesting opinions. My goal is to go through and review all the G1 climax tournaments throughout the history of New Japan , the footage alone is proving to be challenging but with Rudo Reels and other sites my mind is being put at ease daily as i find and locate more and more of this footage. I want to dissect the tournaments from the start to finish and leave no rock unturned as I dive into this long standing historic wrestling event. I have a two part episode focused on the 1991 G1 Climax and also a two part episode focused on the 1992 G1, both coming and pretty much ready to go already but I wont be dropping those until a little later on. I am currently now working on 1993 G1 for the next addition , so lots in the works and stuff coming down the pipeline. Looking at the recent Podcasts focusing on Wrestling these days they are getting very psychological and Philosophical in ways , so I need to keep up with that trend to an extant and will be adapting a Philosophical look at times during some events , not putting a huge spotlight on this but putting little flashes of light on this aspect that Pro Wrestling does have "Truth" elements to it. This is going to be a new concept that i will be adapting starting in the 1993 Episode and seeing how people respond to it. I feel that PWO is setting a new bar and a new standard of the way a fan can view wrestling which almost opens up a new world and a New Road to walk within our fandoms. I reckon that with changing our view and highlighting dark areas and maybe putting light onto them that something new can be seen in the footage. I sort of do this with the Killer Karl Krupp Match that i review in the pilot but at the time never realized it until just recently. I am happy to be here! Go have listen to my Pilot guys! I Look forward to interacting and communicating with everybody and am open to any types of suggestions. Contact me here on PWO message board , also Twitter @roadtonewjapan1 -
Excellent , I just watched some of these matches today! Great timing!

Introduction to the Board as a wrestling fan
Therealheel replied to soup23's topic in Forums Feedback
Hi , My name is Cody , I am living in New Brunswick Canada now but grew up in Alberta , so i grew up with Stampede Wrestling as my local promotion and the Hart Family was a huge influence on my wrestling fandom. In 1990 the WWF started to grab my attention and especally Ted Dibase , who quickly became my favourite wrestler. I followed WCW closely and preferred it to WWF , I watched WWF but always seeked out other promotions or styles and preferred the alternative , at my age it was hard to ignore WWF. Japanese wrestling came early for me and I gravitated towards it in about 92 and I tried to watch anything and everything , I had a tape and magazine hook up in Japan and I would get 8 hour tapes from Japanese tv all the time. It was great! So today I watch mostly NJPW , NWA classics!. I want to get into Everything NOAH , I am looking so forward to this stuff! I am patiently waiting for the Stampede Wrestling Footage that WWE has and can't wait for that to be dumped on the network. So much wrestling I am interested in and many promotions and time periods.

PWO Pilot: Stacey and Elliott's Bogus Journey

I just rewatched the Sash Banks Vs Charlotte Hell in Cell match as I was listning to your show and analysis of the match. I agree with you that it is a great WWE match and a great match in general , I do feel that it doesn't grab me in a way that would warrant a five star rating for me , with that said I do give the match a 4 1/2 , which is a very high rating for me when it comes to rating matches. I think for myself I enjoyed the Aj Styles vs John Cena match at summerslam a little more then this match , and that match I only rated a 4 1/2 , but I felt more attached and that match grabbed me more as a fan , also the Ambrose vs Owens match at the RR this year was also a tad bit better in my opinion as well. So already I have two WWE matches this year that I liked better , but I don't want to take away from this match and I give it credit for what was accomplished in it. Good show and I look forward to more from both of you , good idea for show and I will be listning in the future and try to watch ch he matches you both suggest.
