WWE TV 07/02 - 07/08 BELGIUM WITH THE UPSET AGAINST JAPAN
That is true, it just seems like you don't hear 205 get mentioned much anywhere. Which sucks, cause the show has been very good ever since the title tournament began before Mania.

Fire Pro World X New Japan
I have 485 hours logged on World. But I've created close to 70 CAW's and do a ton of simming. As stated above, they certainly didn't stray far from past games, but it looks fantastic, there is a lot more to come, and the community has created anyone you could ever want from Farmer Burns to Zan Panzer.

Easily. Ever since he showed up on 205, he has been doing some amazing work. I can't recall a bad performance yet, and the match this week was fucking crazy. Credit to Mustafa Ali as well. He is more than doing his part. Fact is, 205 has been great since Enzo got shit canned. It's really a shame that no one seems to be watching it.

Comments that don't warrant a thread - Part 4
This got lost in the previous nonsense, so I will quote it and hope for an answer. Also, not asking where to acquire it, just how much exists. Thanks

How much of the KTVT footage of Dallas/World Class survived? I'm reading Gary Hart's book and have gotten to the parts where he is booking for Fritz and some of the pre-syndicated stuff sounds like it would be cool to see. I have been slowly watching the available World Class on the network, and I realize this is all the syndicated show. So I am just curious what, and how much pre-syndication stuff exists on video.

UK Tournament 2018
The "Shoes Off if you Hate Zack Gibson" chant was one of the oddest and funniest things I have ever seen. Both shows were pretty enjoyable. The Shayna/Toni Storm match was a lot of fun.

Ugghh.... The new board doesn't take you to the specific point in the thread where you were last reading, that sucks. But, I'm glad it's back up!!

Lucha Underground S4
I've enjoyed both episodes so far, but I do have to agree that it seems like they are rushing things. Aztec Warfare and Grave Consequences in the first 3 episodes. Beating clean in the 2nd episode. The matches feel super edited and fast, even Melissa Santos feels like she is rushing. I dunno, it just seems like the whole thing is in fast forward right now.

Lucha Underground S4
Antonio Cueto looks so ridiculous, that I don't even care if he is real or Dario in disguise. Absolutely hilarious, and like El-P said "Very B Movie" I definitely didn't think Aztec Warfare would come out this early in the season, and it unfortunately felt like a whole lot of filler until Fenix showed up. Could have done without Mr. Pec-tacular, and certainly didn't want to see Hernandez again. Dreamer was awesome, and smaller or not, I am so glad to see Cuerno back in the mix. Definitely one of my favorite characters from the show. Not to keen on Muertes going that fast. No Cage, or Aerostar, or Drago? Interesting Pentagon vs Matanza! Yeah, first episode was a little rocky, but it's still L.U. and I am still along for the ride!!

WWE Hidden Gems
If that means they have a full, non-clipped version of the whole '87 Crockett Cup, that is my new holy grail. First wrestling VHS my parents ever bought me. Still have it in the giant, plastic clamshell packaging! That opening video package to "The Hit" by Richard Myhill still makes me mark out!!

WWE TV 06/04 - 06/10 The Big Dog Returns To His Yard
Buddy Murphy going from bland tag team guy in the early days of network NXT to guy who is having amazing performances every single time he is on 205 Live is being slept on by pretty much everyone.....but Holy Shit, Buddy Murphy is fucking awesome!

WWE TV 06/04 - 06/10 The Big Dog Returns To His Yard
The guy he is fighting likely wouldn't even be in the UFC if he wasn't being brought in to fight Punk. He is 33 years old, and has an 0-1 MMA record. However, his loss is to the same guy that demolished Punk, and he is apparently a pretty good Muay Thai guy. So, unless Punk has improved significantly, he is probably getting knocked out to end this experiment.

WWE TV 05/28 - 06/03 Brazilian Meltdown edition
But they have to be wearing ring gear all the time because they never know when.... that match....is going to happen....right now!!!!

Wrestling moves/holds I'd like to see mount a comeback
I am probably the only one, but I always loved Terry Gordy's Oriental Spike. Simple and effective.

MLW Fusion, anyone watching it?
Thanks for the info! Just finished the first episode, not too bad. Super odd hearing Schiavone calling modern indy wrestling!

The Innovation of the Tapout in Pro Wrestling
There is a match between Sting and Kane (Bruiser Mastino) from the 3/6/93 WCW Saturday Night on the WWE Network Hidden Gems section, and it certainly appears that Jacobs taps to the Scorpion Deathlock.

If he is out again, that was the best possible Daniel Bryan/Big Cass feud.

What do you consider to be your promotion
As a kid I watched all of the WWF and NWA I could. I watched AWA when it was on, I watched Global and World Class when I could catch it. But in the 90's when WCW was running Hogan versus the Dungeon of Doom and WWF was giving us Sparky Plugg.....I discovered ECW. Here I was in high school, grunge was still a thing, I was growing my hair long and smoking cigarettes cause I thought I was fucking cool, and I discovered a wrestling that no one in my stupid little West Virginia town had ever heard of (or so I thought!) So every Saturday night I stayed up until 2 or 3 in the morning to watch this crazy ass wrestling on the sports channel out of Pittsburgh. About half the time they didn't bother to show it, and then I'd be super pissed off. I'd tape it and show my buddies. I ordered the EC F'N W t-shirt and thought I was even cooler! Then Barely Legal came around and it was awesome! Then the Sports Channel stopped showing it and I had to follow it on the early days of the internet which was a giant pain in the ass, but I continued buying the PPV's until the end. Now I own most of the TV and all of the PPV's on DVD and I am making my way back through it. So yeah, while today I am a PWG guy....all time, I am an ECW guy, and I probably always will be.
