Current WWE
Has the second match aired yet? That was pretty great. First one wasn't much as it was too short.

Hell In a Cell
I went to Raw tonight and it was interesting how more over Punk and Bryan are than Cena on his first Raw back. Cena got a pop but Bryan was getting chants even before the doors opened.

Hell In a Cell
We are getting Regal vs Cesaro which I'm perfectly fine with.

Hell In a Cell
Looking forward to seeing Bryan doing the pre show panel at Mania.

When the territories died
Isn't WWC considered the final territory? They are still running to this day and have outlasted all the other promotions on the Island.

Comments that don't warrant a thread - Part 3
I've seen Headhunter 1 a couple times in AAA/IWRG. He's alright but can't really do the high flying like the old days. A decent brawler though. Headhunter 2 retired years ago but I think he came back a couple times for house shows. I was watching some USWA tv from 1994 earlier and saw something that blew my mind. To build up the Adam Bomb vs Jerry Lawler unified title match, they showed a WWF squash match with Adam Bomb where Vince does total heel commentary and Lawler is the babyface. He keeps asking what Vince's problem with Memphis in and Vince goes straight into Mr. Mcmahon mode. I'm guessing this only aired in Memphis and wasn't televised on WWF tv. It's also probably the first heel Vince calling a WWF match that way.

Has Chaparro replaced Barrbaras again? I like Chaparro so it's a plus.

Best 2013 Matches (Pre August)_
Paige/Emma. Best women's match along with Gail Kim/Taryn.

Too much wrestling
Do Live shows count? I just got back from a 4 hour NXT taping. I usually watch Raw, Smackdown, NXT, TNA, Main Event and about 4-6 hours of Lucha on the weekend. Then I watch a dvd before bed and fall asleep most of the time.

Is TNA the worst wrestling promotion in history?
They did a taping a couple months ago in Tampa. I think they also went to Jacksonville.

Ranking the luchadores
I liked Hector Garza's early hair matches with guys like El Brazo, Bestia Salvaje and Satanico. His peak was probably the Perro Jr/Latin Lover/Garza/Heavy metal feud. OJ, have you seen Pirata/Fishman vs Lizmark/Mascara Sagrada from early 93 AAA i think it was? That match was the first AAA match I ever saw when I got a Lucha tape from Highspots in the early 2000's. Just a total bloody brawl and the best Fishman match ever.

He played Eddie Gilbert's "brother" Freddie in the early days of ECW. I don't think he lasted very long. He was also a ref for years in Memphis and jobber under a mask as the Yellowjacket in the later days of USWA/early days of Power Pro.

2013 Observer Awards Discussion
Most Disgusting Promotional Tactic has to be either CMLL doing a new Pierroth and putting a 40+ year old guy under the mask who's awful or WWC being main evented by Invader vs Carlos Colon in 2013.

What are you watching?
Should be on the 1990 yearbook. Been watching some USWA 1994. I'm up to March 1994 when Lance Russell and Dream Machine return. It's such a shame Dream Machine wasn't around in the late 80's early 90's. One of the best promo guys every. Also Jerry Lawler and Brian Christopher are feuding with the Gilberts and new Moondogs. Lawler won Eddie's mothers van while Eddie has the Unified title and Lawler's Lord of the Ring ring. They also feuded over Sam Bass's jacket for a while.

I can't remember a better Lucha women's match than Fabi vs Mari Apache from Triplemania.

Ranking the luchadores
I'm surprised Skyade is not on the list of Strong hands or even Excellent workers. I'd also like to see your thoughts on Rambo. The Villano III series of matches is really great. Especially the mask vs mask match Alfredo posted on Youtube the other day. That match was just a bloody bloody brawl and was great

Dave Meltzer stuff
He went to some indy show with Bret Hart on it a couple months ago didn't he? I remember him talking about it on one of the Observer show.

The Last Indie Show You Went To?
Went to the Dragon Gate USA show in Orlando earlier this year. Fun show with a crowd of about 50. It was my first time seeing guys like the Young Bucks, Chuck Taylor and AR Fox.

Dylan Reviews Full Shows In This Thread
You should try WWC. It's main evented by 2 60 year olds and Invader does some of the best promos in the world these days. Only problem is most of the matches are JIP but it has blood in a lot of feuds and is very old school.
