rovert Posted October 5, 2013 Report Share Posted October 5, 2013 I've heard the promoters of Pro Wrestling Syndicate's offshoot Bombshell Ladies Of Wrestling (yes I know) and Ohio's Absolute Intense Wrestling's off shoot Girls Night Out say that those shows attract a completely different audience. The former in the most eye winking pervy wanker way possible. I do stand by SHIMMER as being a really fun product to watch akin to PWG. There's typically a fair amount of really strong matches mixed with some fun characters and Dave Prazak and Portia Perez announce team.

rovert Posted October 9, 2013 Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 Matt Striker is recommended. He still has one eye on WWE but discloses more than most people like that. He tells some interesting stories from bullying, locker room culture to dealing with Vince in various capacities. The unique thing about Matt Striker is that obviously he was a teacher and seemingly a good one. Not only that he has worked with various disability type charities including those related to autism. He said in the strictest sincerity he saw Daniel Benoit multiple times and thought he was normal child with no developmental issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched the BLOW debut show since they put it up on youtube for free. Serious contender for one of the worst wrestling shows of all time featuring 2 of the all time worst matches i've ever seen (Silvie Silver vs Jewells Malone & Silvie vs Becky Bayless) and very little else of any quality (Winters match was decent and Mia Yim vs Christina Von Erie was pretty good and 5* compared to everything else on the show) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've kept up with their results just to see what she does and have wanted to see some of her matches from the other shows but they hadn't uploaded any others.

He said in the strictest sincerity he saw Daniel Benoit multiple times and thought he was normal child with no developmental issues. I agree. Aside from the Kevin Steen Show series (which I can understand some people not enjoying or being interested in), the Striker shoot is probably my favorite of the year thus far. I didn't care for him when he worked in WWE, but he comes off well in the interview. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Migs Posted October 13, 2013 Report Share Posted October 13, 2013 As an addendum to having watched a ton of Midnight Express lately, I checked out the RF Condrey/Eaton shoot. Bobby barely but talks, but Dennis comes across as an interesting dude. Typical RF overly facile shoot, though. Dennis really needed to be pushed to get out some more stories... felt like there were some good ones lurking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bix Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 If Marty can't afford surgery I can't blame him for wanting to numb himself with painkillers and alcohol. If he got detoxed and set his pain receptors right, his ankles would still have him in agony. He's not a star at the level of Scott Hall but someone trustworthy should work with him on a donation deal to get him the surgery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El-P Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 The interview may be really hard to follow, but they do raise some interesting points though, like the Wellness policy sending people with recreative drug addictions to rehab, but not taking care of people with addictions deriving from taking too much painkillers because of years of abuse in the company's rings. I don't know to which extent that is true but I thought it was interesting. Marty told that the woman in charge (who he didn't bash BTW) said that if they would do that for him, then they would have to do it for everybody else. Kinda interesting to hear how he became a born-again for a full week too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rovert Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 Haven't seen it yet but I've listened to podcasts with Marty before his resentful friendship of Shawn Michaels is quite the deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smitlick Posted October 21, 2013 Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 Watched the Lex Luger Timeline Shoot. Its surprisingly good. Lex comes across really nice. Would love to see another one with him doing WCW as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheapshot Posted October 21, 2013 Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 Enjoyed the Matt Striker shoot so far (about 2/3's in) Matt does some nice subtle impressions of people that are quite accurate. I could not be arsed with dealing with a nugget like JBL hazing though, if it was me, I'd lose my tempter and go Joey Styles on him. Matt came across as a humble guy during the interview. One I'd recommend. Nothing earth shattering is discussed as I can imagine he want's to try and keep the door well and truly open with the WWE.

MikeCampbell Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 Boy, this Marty interview is a tough watch. My review on 411 said as much. Although, I really did like Sean's comment that they'd ride the train as long as Marty gets to the station. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
