goc Posted August 16, 2015 Report Posted August 16, 2015 Did we have that from the mid-south set? I don't know if the match made the Mid-South set but it's definitely not new. I have it on a Fabs compilation I got from XWT-Classics. It's a big time VQ upgrade though. Quote
Matt D Posted August 16, 2015 Report Posted August 16, 2015 Mid-South is a set I don't have so I wouldn't know. VQ was really good on it as goc said. There's a moment where a Guerrero is pinned in between the rope and the cage and it was pretty striking. Boesch commentated on it. Quote
BruceTharpe Posted August 17, 2015 Report Posted August 17, 2015 Hope everyone is enjoying NWAClassics.com! We plan to debut a new and more easy to navigate website in a few days - and will be uploading more current NWA content as well. And yes we are working super hard on the Roku App and hope to have it ready very soon! Quote

Matt D Posted August 17, 2015 Report Posted August 17, 2015 Re: Duggan vs Akbar: I absolutely love the Houston crowd. They were going nuts for everything. Akbar got so much heat just hanging out in the ring while they were announcing the rules. It's a lot of fun, with huge anticipation, a crazy gimmick I've never seen before, Duggan's perfectly timed punch at "1", and Akbar's fear as Duggan was outpacing him then his calm confidence after he got cut free. Pretty much what you'd expect with the crowd getting satisfaction but not too much but still leaving happy. They deserved to leave happy too. Quote
BruceTharpe Posted August 18, 2015 Report Posted August 18, 2015 I am enjoying these matches as much as anyone! This is the style of wrestling I grew up on and we literally have HUNDREDS more of these great matches to upload. I'm so thankful that they are in such good condition. And if we release just one match a day - you will have new matches posted daily on NWAClassics.com for years. What I plan to do as soon as we can - is transfer the rest of library - which is a monumental and costly undertaking. An upload it as quickly as I can so it can be correctly organized. In the meantime I will share the matches with you as soon as they are transferred and return to us. And no - I really don't have any control of the order in which they are transferred. I would have to be physically in Indianapolis to do that. This isn't a perfect world - we don't have the matches in chronological order or the full cards yet. But we are doing the best we can! Quote

I'm loving the service and am looking forward to the eventual Ken Lucas matches so I can see if his reputation lives up to the hype. I think he might be another guy like Gino to really benefit from a footage explosion. Quote

shoe Posted August 19, 2015 Report Posted August 19, 2015 Looking forward to the upload today. Lothario has been tremendous on the streaming service so far. So the beginning of the Guerreros/Lothario feud should be great. Quote
shoe Posted August 20, 2015 Report Posted August 20, 2015 Holy crap the Hector Guerrero vs Jose Lothario Mexican Death Match was awesome. My thoughts are here. http://prowrestlingonly.com/index.php?/topic/31727-mexican-death-match-hector-guerrero-d-jose-lothario-6884/ Quote
JerryvonKramer Posted August 22, 2015 Report Posted August 22, 2015 Great promo by Ted on latest upload. Quote
JerryvonKramer Posted August 22, 2015 Report Posted August 22, 2015 Love this match too, how great are Dibiase's fist drops! Bill Watts really believed in putting heat on a heel, and I love that. I've also mentioned this before,about this match, but look at how brilliant Ted is at feeding Duggan during his comeback. Down and back up and down and back up. One of the greatest in the business at that. Duggan is like a demented cave man here, covered in blood. VQ great in this too. Quote

goc Posted August 24, 2015 Report Posted August 24, 2015 My thoughts on Duggan/Dibiase taped fist match. http://prowrestlingonly.com/index.php?/topic/31382-mid-south-north-american-champion-ted-dibiase-vs-hacksaw-jim-duggan-mid-south-3885-no-dq/ Watched that match this morning looking for some inspiration to write something for the fantasy project. Duggan was so fucking awesome in Mid-South man. His bloody comebacks where he looks like a deranged caveman are about as good as fired up babyface comebacks get. Quote
Matt D Posted August 25, 2015 Report Posted August 25, 2015 I thought the Rip Rogers vs Johnny Rich match was a lot of fun. I'm just playing catch up but started with that and enjoyed it. Rich played his role well and Rip was just all over the place in a good way. Quote
goc Posted August 25, 2015 Report Posted August 25, 2015 I need to watch that. Rip Rogers is the best wrestler to follow on twitter, he will usually respond to you if you ask him a respectful question. Quote
peachchaos Posted August 25, 2015 Report Posted August 25, 2015 I was just reading some Rip Rogers comments on Portland YouTube videos. Seems like a stand-up guy. Quote
shoe Posted August 25, 2015 Report Posted August 25, 2015 Rip Rogers vs Johnny Rich was a blast. I have 3 dates as possible. Rogers was great at feeding for Rich. He would also do stuff on the mat to keep things interesting. Rich was good in his role and I bet these guys have worked each other in a lot of territories. 2 3/4* Quote
goc Posted August 25, 2015 Report Posted August 25, 2015 So yea today's new match is Ron Garvin vs. The Missing Link. I somehow missed that Garvin had some matches in Houston. Looking forward to checking that out. Quote

Same date as the Garvin/Link match. Quote
