Comments that don't warrant a thread - Part 4
So, I'm not really a deathmatch guy but I kind of want to watch more Game Changer Wrestling after this year's Mania Weekend. They just seem to put so much more thought and creativity into their shows. Any recommendations to start with?

Mania Week Insanity 2019
It kind of really pisses me off that had WWE released the Revival that we could have had The Revival vs. Rock N Roll Express on Spring Break.

Ring of Honor Wrestling
That's an annual event for me and then I either hit a big event where it takes a month for the TV to reflect the results or I give up after suffering through a couple of lazy episodes at the end of a taping.

Part 2 of Spring Break I believe.

Mania Week Insanity 2019
I liked how they circumvented the usually stupidity of ladder matches with the leg injury to Touchdown and Dasher being more interested in inflicting pain. The end spot was absolutely brutal as well. Where that match really shined is my wife watched it and had no idea of the storyline but came out of it wanting to see more of their feud. She actually came out of that as a big Dasher fan.

Dasher Hatfield vs. Mr. Touchown ladder match was pretty good.

I found USA vs. The World to be pretty disappointing overall. It felt like everything was kind of a miss.

I really liked Hanson of all people trying to go dive for dive with Ricochet.

I'm thinking about ordering it. How was Severn/Mir and Barnett/Suzuki?

NXT Takeover: New York
This might have been the best Takeover show ever and I would listen to arguments for it being the best overall show of all time.

Wrestling Games
Filsinger has the simplest rules but packs the most flexibility as far as actually getting the matches down. Tag team wrestling is a landmine that tons of games get wrong or have pre-made teams. Face to the Mat is an interesting universe simulator but it doesn't have the sheer amount of content that Filsinger does. You really can't beat the lore of Champions of the Galaxy when it comes to made up rosters.

Is Impact* the best wrestling promotion in history? *(Now TNA again, 2024)
It worked okay with Sara Del Rey in Chikara back in the day. But she's built like a tank and a lot of their roster is smaller. It hasn't worked as well for them since.

Mania Week Insanity 2019
I'm really excited for the Dasher Hatfield vs. Mr. Touchdown Ladder Match because the angle leading up to it has been very good.

Oh and Orange Cassidy vs. Bryan Alvarez and Arquette vs. Thatcher.

The first Spring Break show is still pretty open.

Josh Barnett vs. Minoru Suzuki makes Bloodsport an automatic buy for me.

A couple but nothing too memorable. Tabletop for wrestling games seem best served by the card game sims like the Filsinger system or Face to the Mat.

The Mania weekend show will mark the first time since 2006 that I will buy an Impact show. That card looks really fun.

It's almost like sabotaging guys when they get hot because it might interfere with the push of your chosen one could potentially bite you in the ass down the road.

The Pro-wrestling Curve of Attractiveness
You know, you catch her at certain angles and she's a dead ringer for Tully. She's a great worker but she does nothing for me looks wise because of how close she resembles her dad at times.
