A complete viewing list is embedded in the PTBN link - watch AND listen along. http://placetobenation.com/digging-in-the-crates-2/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomethingSavage Posted September 1, 2015 Report Share Posted September 1, 2015 Digging this concept and enjoyed the hell out of the first episode. Just a quick, breezy conversation with Will and Phil just getting me psyched to watch a few matches. Really appreciate having the footage for these readily available right out of the gate, too.

SomethingSavage Posted September 3, 2015 Report Share Posted September 3, 2015 Holy shit. That fantasy feud between the Villanos clan and the Armstrong family sounds like the last great chapter of Continental or Smoky Mountain that should have fucking happened. I could see it now. - Months of TV with random beat-downs by the Villanos, invading from south of the border as hired hitmen for an unknown benefactor. - Singles matches building to the big super-card, where it's a team Villanos vs. team Armstrong elimination match, with all masks waged against all heads of hair. - The Villanos get the monumental win, when the benefactor reveals himself and costs Bullet Bob's family their dignity (and HAIR). - All building to one final blow-off in a cage or side-by-side double ring War Games style cage match. Bloodshed. Tattered & torn masks. You name it. ... Now that I've gotten that out of my system, I'd just add that I thought the show was great. Another straightforward conversation that hyped me to scope out these matches. Enjoyed the back-story with Phil explaining how Cactus was his gateway guy into tape trading, and I was hoping Kris would kind of follow suit. The added "recommendations" section to close out the show is a nice touch, too. Looking forward to these each time now. I'm assuming that background noise towards the end there was Phil's dog doing a run-in to rip & gnaw at a squeaky toy like a ravenous rudo working the cut. Great show, guys.

Phil Schneider Posted September 3, 2015 Report Share Posted September 3, 2015 I would assume Robert Fuller would be the benefactor, maybe he could talk about how he became friends with the VIllanos in WCW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomethingSavage Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 Why sure. I can picture Fuller showing up on set for an interview after the big reveal, bragging & boasting about how he got the Villanos to agree to the hit for a cheap deal and a hell of a bargain. "The value of a peso AIN'T WORTH MUCH, after all!" Then, after a hearty laugh, a couple of the Villanos shoot him a sideways look of ".. the fuck did you say?"And with that, Fuller quickly changes his tune - excitedly putting them over and giving them an exaggerated pat on the back. "But these boys don't mind getting their hands dirty for dirt cheap!" Plus they got plenty of mouths to feed back home in Mexico. These Villanos are breedin' like rabbits, and they just keep coming out meaner, nastier, and uglier. Heck, their kids are coming out so mean, so nasty, and so ugly - that even THEY walk around with them there masks! You bet'cha. And so ya see, this is a war the Armstrongs just CAIN'T WIN! 'Cause the Villanos won't ever stop coming, and the ole Tennessee Stud is gonna see to that - 'cause he won't stop forkin' over money to 'em until the JOB IS DONE. For the Armstrongs, the buck stops here. The proud - AND PAID - Villano family is gonna drag every Armstrong out to pasture and put 'em out of their misery. And when it's all said and done, Bullet Bob is gonna have to go out and buy all his boys some masks to hide their hideous BALD HEADS.... ... ... Okay then. I need to stop.

Zero Posted September 14, 2015 Report Share Posted September 14, 2015 Just got around to listening to these. Really great stuff. Looking foward to the finished product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pantherwagner Posted September 14, 2015 Report Share Posted September 14, 2015 I'd pay good money to see an Armstrongs vs Villanos feud even today. Robert Fuller using his southern plantation owner as the benefactor of Los Villanos could have been epic. Eventually after months and months of bloodshed people would kind of appreciate the Villanos (well.... you'd hope) so you could turn them face and then bring in Disorderly Conduct as Fuller's new goons. Anyway, enjoyed this show (though I haven't listened to the final match yet) a lot. I don't listen to match review shows, just not my thing, but I find this one very entertaining.

Happ Hazzard Posted September 22, 2015 Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 The new show is posted on the PTBN front page but it doesn't actually seem to be up there to download. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
