White Trash just about died in every match. His great legacy will be introducing Tank to the promotion.

Phil had this as his #2 or #3 for the real-time SC best of '06.

Aw, I was so gonna say the Go match. Ibushi vs. Yoshihiko for the KO-D title is a pretty perfect example.

Awful, man. And yeah, I will have something together in the next two days.

Need to see it but am just backing up the Imposible praise. He's fantastic.

SCI Final? The Scenic City Invitational tournament. Anthony Henry vs. Chris Hero vs. Gunner Miller vs. Jimmy Rave, elimination rules.

Quartermain was also booked by Muga, which makes more sense because he was a Dory Jr. trainee, but still kinda bizarre. Why not just go all in and book Adam Windsor?

Killer list, though I'd expect nothing less.

I can do whatever with an American promotion.

Damnit.

That's why I brought it up. What feds need to have GM changes?

What is the protocol for determining when a fed needs to be turned over to a new GM?

Only three (no multi-mans). I think that I like the Morishima/Yone match more than others but I don't think that anybody really dislikes it, either. That was their last together AND first in nine months. It's not a fair comparison at all but between the first and last KENTA/Shibata match, there were 14 KENTA/Maru 2-on-2 tags, so not counting multi-mans. Can't help but wish that it was the other way around.

I like this format, but I shouldn't have run as many first-round matches so early.

Had a discussion earlier about how Morishima's 2007 was almost lethal for him in NOAH.

Her biggest fan is Rovert. Extrapolate from there. But I actually do have Becky as my #1 main roster woman. But that's because I just really like her general personality more than anything, and I don't really see anything egregious that she does in the ring.

That's also why NJ had the famous unpredictable pace for main events. It does not have that now. My God, does it not have that now. The current main event style is a weird amalgamation of the Triple H mindset of post-Attitude Era main event atmosphere, the "Baba wanted AJPW to be like WWF" (which never made sense because it was really like AWA) King's Road vision of layout, and the Toryumon style of lucharesu but with heavies for the action. Or maybe it's not that at all. I don't really care. My favorite active NJ Dojo grad might be YOSHI-HASHI.

AJPW & SMW have officially made a trade sending Richard Slinger to Smoky Mountain and Bull Pain to All Japan. AJPW signs Joe Malenko.

I'm trying to accumulate the most DVDVR/SC mid/undercard possible while maintaining the Pillars/Hansen/Tenryu on top. Andersson, Aoyagi, Fuchi, Honda, Ishikawa, Nishimura, Saito, Usuda, the Faces of Fear and now BULL GODDAMNED PAIN.

I find him unbearable. Negative charisma for me and total broomstickery in matches with guys like Hero or Ospreay.
