  1. What was Patrick's explanation for the slow count? This stinks. Everybody in this looks like a goof by the end. A monumental build up brought to a screeching halt, as it only gets worse from here.
  2. Peak Joe. Joe the kingpin of the indies at the time makes his way to Canada. He proceeds to beat the hell out of a young Steen. You can already see Steen has a lot of his traits down. The finish is a bit ant-climatic with run ins, leading to a tag match. Really enjoyed this though.
  3. Loved how much the ropers were used in this. Felt a bit chaotic.
  4. This seems most likely a private match that was shoot (i'm guessing). Was common for Johnson to get booked for private fights & wrestling matches then.
  5. Just had this on in the background while I worked, couldn't really believe we have 20+ minutes of a 100+ year old match.
  6. Enjoyed this. I was a little worried about the runtime, but it flew by. 2nd fall was a treat, the 3rd fall finish was a bit lackluster.
  7. Couldn’t agree more. She’s probably the best handled wrestler in the WWE of the last decade or so.

  9. They only got about 10 minutes, but they did quite a bit with it. Story of the match was Styles reversing a lot of Ki's offense. 2002 AJ Styles is really fun to watch.
  10. The crowd reactions for the opening armdrags were tremendous. Roaring. Bruno is in control for the majority just beating up and yanking Larry's arm off. Larry finally takes control after an eye-poke. and gate keeping Bruno from entering the ring. Ends with Bruno trying to rip Larry's head clean off his body while his foot is tied up in the ropes.
  11. "Sammartino has lost his mind!" The crowd at the Spectrum was red hot from the start. Roof came off anytime Bruno was on offense. Ends with Bruno snapping and trying to cripple Larry.
  12. This is my first time watching the Bruno/Zbyszko feud, and I am a fool for letting it slip past me for so long. Larry finally going full Cobra Kai on Bruno was something else.
  13. Oof. This interview aged like milk. Cornette does not come of well in this. Shocked more of this hasn't gone around with all the twitter heat Cornette has of late.
  14. Enjoyed this. Both guys were landing hard shorts, and working long holds, but it never dragged. Rasputin hit a big strike that send O'Connor flying to the floor which was pretty great.
  15. Ivan is quite the great heel. His strikes looked great, and he was powering Tiny around. I’d like to see more of Ivan
  16. Not much to discuss here. Alvarez the younger guy gets the win after three subpar drop kicks.
  17. Never seen any Yulie Brynner. What a gimmick for 1958.
  18. I personally couldn't get into this. After seeing this thread, I did some research on the Kirilenko case, and creepy is an understatement from the details.
  19. The commentator mentioned this is Dick's debut at the Chicago International Amphitheatre. That's pretty cool if true. Ivan has some stiff gut punches, but there wasn't really much to this.
  20. I'm going to say that was the planned finish, and what a finish it was! Buddy really made the headlock portion a breeze to watch for me, with his limp body getting dragged.

  23. I remember watching the Busters/Rockers series years ago, and enjoying the matches. So, I decided to go back and re-watch em. Arn & Tully couldn't catch their breath in this match, with the Rockers just swarming them. They finally get the upperhand after a sick double team drop on the top rope. The finish was similar but different from their previous encounter at the Spectrum the month before.
  24. A section of the Spectrum fans helping the heel Brain Busters at every corner is pretty funny. The chemistry is so good between the Busters & Rockers, enjoyed this. Heenan was pretty good on commentary, and sold the Rockers as the next big thing.
  25. Enjoyed this. Hase's gameplan was working perfectly, but nobody can plan for the power of Misawa's elbows.
