Grimmas

Fact check, the first three CHV tapes (Bloopers, Hulkamania, & Best of the WWF) all came out on the same day.

Kind of wish Austin just gave McMahon a stunner afterwards anyway.

This was amazing, btw. Even my wife, who doesn't like wrestling, really enjoyed this and laughed a lot. The best part was when Daniel was on commentary and freaked out about a bearhug being applied!

After weeks and weeks of demand, Daniel Bryan vs The Bear has been released by the WWE!

104 for NXT, 107(8?) for Survivor Series!

I'm pretty excited I get to see the finals of this tournament live in Toronto!

Guys... Smackdown is booking a program with Dolph Ziggler and The Miz that has long term stories (Dolph since draft) and has had Dolph lose twice, with a gimmick that came logically and has made us care about these two in 2016. SD is the best!

CHV is my jam, can't wait to hear you folks go on about it.

The POP deal is only a barter deal . Billy has already met with the POP people. I would think that a new BC promotion could just slide right in that POP barter deal and move forward . That would be better for sure.

Phil Dean of Thunder Fire Bomb Review is still waiting for a tape of the 9/26 FMW show. Once he gets it, a review will be out.

Yep, maybe it helps merch... They could run Toronto more often, however, they have only run Toronto with NJPW stars the last 3 years, so maybe they can't run without them anymore. Bullet Club and NJPW might be the draws for Toronto now, not ROH.

I'm actually still waiting for something they promised from day one, all of the home videos.

Canadian exposure doesn't mean much. They still run the same amount of shows each year here, same location, and about the same attendance.

Are people forgetting how great the Cesaro-Zayn series was? Even the Owens-Zayn matches in NXT were MOTYC compared to never hitting that level in the WWE.

Zayn has not been very impressive since he's come to the main roster and I'm baffled by why so many people still cry about him being "wasted" or "buried" like he should be a permanent fixture of the main event. I struggle to think of any really impressive TV match that Zayn has had since he's come to the main roster while a guy like Sheamus is always churning out good matches to zero fanfare outside of some people on this board. I didn't even really care for the Owens matches which everyone would probably point to as Zayn's best stuff on the main roster. When a great wrestler looks unimpressive in a promotion, I blame the promotion not the wrestler.

Also people being pissed about political correctness is often a shield about them being pissed off they are being called out on being a bigot or racist or whate whatever.

That line of thinking means we should still use the n word or using gay as an insult.

b/c WWE is very problematic.

Getting worked up and pointing out it's stupid to use certain terms is different, by the way.

Not anymore, because it's fucking stupid. Even Dave Meltzer agreed and stopped using it.

It's nice to see that people bending over backwards to find things to be triggered by isn't just a recent phenomenon. Really what a stupid, ignorant thing to say. Calling a bad match an abortion is just plain stupid and I would be really pissed if I was reading that bullshit, especially if I was involved in an abortion or anything. Regardless of that, there is no need to use such stupid terminology.

Loved the early armwork by Colon, actually loved all of Colon in this one. However, this is your typical Flair match. Things get worked on and then they just move onto something else and it seems to be forgotten. Either way, Colon brought the goods here and I'm really loving his style. He's Tito! He's the firey comeback babyface who can also sell great. The cartwheels are stellar too. This comeback was freaking epic too. I really adored this finish. ****

Oh man, oh man! Love this shit. Love the Dave style writing. Love the booking. I'm really excited for UWFi going forward.

Normally Zangiev would only be available for select dates, but since UWFi only runs select dates that is ok with me.

FMW Grand Slam, Night 9 September 24, 1995 in Tokyo, Japan Hachioji Civic Hall FMW Grand Slam Brass Knuckles Championship Round Robin Tournament: Mr. Gannosuke [0] vs. Jinsei Shinzaki [4] Gannosuke was a man obsessed and went on full offense, however his agressive style lead to mistakes and Shinzaki gaining the victory with an inside cradle. After the match Gannosuke snapped in the ring. FMW Grand Slam Brass Knuckles Championship Round Robin Tournament: The Gladiator [10] vs. Big Boss Man [4] The Gladiator was very confident, since he is already into the finals of the tournament. Early on Boss Man caught him a Boss Man slam. Gladiator rolled to the outside and walked away getting a count out loss. La Parka vs. Hanzo Nakajima Parks picks up the win in an exciting bout. Combat Toyoda vs. Miwa Sato Combat demolished Sato, sending a message to Kudo that she wants the belt! Hisakatsu Oya, Ricky Fuji, Katsutoshi Niiyama, & Yuji Yasaroaka vs. The Headhunters, Horace Boulder, & Damian 666 This was just a fast paced everybody get stuff in to get people hyped for the end of the tournament. Headhunters pinned Fuji to win the match. FMW Grand Slam Brass Knuckles Championship Round Robin Tournament: Sabu [6] vs. Haybusa [8] If Hayabusa wins he is in the finals versus The Gladiator, if he loses he will not be. Of course Hayabusa came into this with his bum knee from the tournament and Sabu came into this with generally being injured like normal. This was a risk heavy match with both man crashing and burning while attempting high spots. Hayabusa was able to hit the Firebird Splash, but Sabu was too close to the ropes and broke up the pin. Super Leather, Terry Funk's friend, came to ringside. Funk has feuded with Sabu and is still mad about Hayabusa's win over him, so the crowd was unsure of what would happen. The referee was distracted, when Terry Funk came from under the ring and nailed both men with a flaming branding iron knocking them out. The referee counted both men out, for a double knock out and a draw. This means the only way Hayabusa will be in the finals is if Tanaka and Funk battle to a draw. FMW Grand Slam Brass Knuckles Championship Round Robin Tournament: Terry Funk [8] vs. Masato Tanaka [8] Terry Funk was a crazed man trying to get into the finals for this match, using every weapon he could. Tanaka was valiant and never gave up and kept coming back. Both men were bloody. The finish saw Funk put on the Spinning Toe Hold. Tanaka was able to wrap his forearm in barbed-wire and nail Funk with an elbow. As Funk staggered off, Tanaka got up and hitting the Roaring Elbow which was wrapped in barbed-wire for the victory. Final Grand Slam Round Robin Standings: 1. The Gladiator [10] 1. Masato Tanaka [10] 3. Hayabusa [9] 4. Terry Funk [8] 5. Sabu [7] 7. Big Boss Man [6] 7. Jinsei Shinzaki [6] 8. Mr. Gannosuke [0] This sets the stages for the closing show of the tour on September 26th at the Korakeun Hall, shown on tape delay. Also on a future commercial tape, entitled "FMW Grand Slam"! This show will be loaded with the following! The finals of the Grand Slam Tournament with the winner becoming the FMW World Brass Knuckles Heavyweight Champion will see Masato Tanaka battle The Gladiator! Good friends will square off for the FMW Independent Women's & WWA Women's Championship as Megumi Kudo defends against Combat Toyoda. Toyoda will retire in May 1996 and wants to go out as Champion, she gets her shot here! The WWF Women's Champion Monster Ripper will defend her belt against AJW legend Chigusa Nagayo! The FMW World Brass Knuckles Tag Team Champions of Ricky Fuji & Hisakatsu Oya have battled The Headhunters all over this tour. They will square off one more time in a "Barbed Wired Boards Death Match" with the titles on the line! After tonight's show, FMW announced some brand new match ups! Terry Funk will team with Super Leather to take on Hayabusa and the Big Boss Man! Funk and Leather have been a thorn in both of their sides the entire Grand Slam Tournament. Boss Man is not happy with having a cheater and a serial killer in the promotion and will try to carry Hayabusa, who is working on one leg. This should be a war! There is a lot of styles in professional wrestling and in an "All-Styles Match" many of them will be on display as: Daisuke Ikeda (shoot style), La Parka (lucha libre), and Sabu (Sabu style) take on W*ING Kanemaru (Strong Style), Hanzo Nakajima (Lucharesu), & Mitsuharu Matsunaga (Death Style)! Koji Nakagawa did not take too kindly to Mr. Gannosuke throwing a fit after losing in the Grand Slam, since he wasn't even in the tournament. A challenge was issued and accepted! The two premier tag teams in FMW's joshi division will battle as Shark & Crusher battle Takako Inoue & Mayumi Ozaki! Finally, on the pre-show the team of Jinsei Shinzaki & Yuji Yasuraoka will face Horace Boulder & Katsutoshi Niiyama.
