Posted June 2, 201312 yr comment_5546226 Same concept as the IWA Mid South thread. I honestly had no idea what type of promotion this was until I started researching it last night. I figured it was another serious ROH-style fed. If anything, it's so strong in the opposite direction that it makes IWA Mid South look like ROH. Seems very dark and awesome. From 2000-2003, what is the key stuff that needs to make a yearbook? I was able to do 2004 since the Torch Archives had a really, really good recap/review guy who caught every single Wildside show that year, although if someone wants to recommend something specific, I can cross-check to make sure I got it.
June 2, 201312 yr comment_5546232 NWA Wildside was awesome and a compilation of it would be great. Larry Goodman did write-ups for every show and they were great too. I'd feature all the usual suspects from each year and include all the big matches from the big shows mixed in with hidden gems from TV and promos from Jeff G. Bailey
June 2, 201312 yr Author comment_5546233 Do you know if the Larry Goodman reviews are archived anywhere except the Torch? I agree that they're great, but I could only find 2004 and a partial 2003 there. Also, I don't even really know enough about NWA Wildside to know what the usual suspects are in terms of good matches. Is there a good resource out there?
June 2, 201312 yr comment_5546240 I can't find them. Here are some matches from 2000 I'd recommend: AJ Styles vs. Onyx (3/5) Rock & Roll Express vs. Bad Attitude (3/5) Chris Hamrick vs. Ricky Morton (3/19) AJ Styles vs. Onyx (3/26) Rick Michaels vs. Scottie Wrenn (4/9) Lazz vs. Gemini (5/28) Onyx vs. Adam Jacobs (5/28) John Phoenix vs. Jason Cross (6/11) Onyx vs. Lazz (6/11) NWA Elite (Golden/Onyx/Styles/Behrens) vs. Team NCW (Stone Mountain/JC Dazz/Michaels/Young) (6/18) John Phoenix vs. Lazz (6/25) Rock & Roll Express vs. Bad Attitude (6/25) Scottie Wrenn vs. Stone Mountain (8/6) American Males vs. Backseat Boys (8/27) AJ Styles vs. Lazz (9/3) Scottie Wrenn/JC Dazz vs. Terry Knight/Onyx (9/3) Air Paris vs. Adam Jacobs (9/11) NWA Elite vs. Boogaloo Crew (9/18) Bad Attitude vs. Boogaloo Crew (9/25) Romeo Bliss vs. AJ Styles (10/9) Hotshots (Cassidy O'Reilly & Air Paris) vs. American Males (Silky Boom Boom & Adam Jacobs) (10/9) Caprice "Ice" Coleman vs. "All That" Adam Jacobs (10/16) NWA Elite (AJ Styles & Onyx) vs. Romeo Bliss & Lazz (10/16) Boogaloo Crew (Scottie Wrenn & JC Dazz) vs. Suicidal Tendencies (Air Paris & John Phoenix) (10/23) Bad Attitude vs. Boogaloo Crew (10/30) Bad Attitude vs. Boogaloo Crew (11/6) Air Paris vs. Adam Jacobs (11/13) Boogaloo Crew vs. NWA Elite (11/20) Suicidal Tendencies vs. NWA Elite (12/4) Lazz vs. Caprice Coleman (12/11) NWA Elite vs. Suicidal Tendencies (12/18) Boogaloo Crew vs. Suicidal Tendencies (12/25) Sabu vs. AJ Styles (12/25)
June 2, 201312 yr comment_5546247 NWA Wildside at it's peak was maybe the best indy promotion in the country. Great storylines and Jeff G. Bailey as a GOD. Anything with Jason Cross & AJ Styles in the same match was guaranteed money.
June 2, 201312 yr comment_5546252 Also all of the Shank promos and the Romeo Bliss promo where he talks about getting the rats high heel shoe up his ass
June 3, 201312 yr comment_5546326 I loved Wildside. A lot of really good workers up and down the card. Some of them didn't look like stars but had really good matches. Jeff G Bailey might be the greatest manager that never made it on the national scene.
June 3, 201312 yr comment_5546329 Is Jeff G. Bailey's (then?-)girlfriend still around? She used to sell/trade a bunch of unedited (and maybe some completely unaired?) Wildside stuff. I specifically remember the Briscoes match as being something where she had a much longer version than what aired on TV, as well as matches where blown spots got edited out. Do we know anyone who bought tapes from her?
June 3, 201312 yr comment_5546330 No clue about that, but Bailey is still around and working Anarchy regularly.

June 26, 201312 yr comment_5548914 Behrens has any footage you need to make a comp. Maybe kinda pricey but I'd be willing to chip in if you want to make it work
July 19, 201312 yr comment_5552604 They had a site a while back that had all their episodes on it, each for a small fee you could download....they had some big shows on there as well....but I stupidly deleted the big ones..I had 4 or 5 of them...not sure if still available or not....
July 19, 201312 yr comment_5552608 Anyone have any memories of Bobby 2 Badd? I only saw him once but his name interested me. Wildside aired for maybe 1 or 2 whole shows here around 2003-2004ish on local TV. I remember Onyx and The Rainbow Express working some kind of ladder match or at least challenging for one.
July 20, 201312 yr comment_5552646 Ron Killings & A.J. Styles had some awesome matches there, I think they had a ladder match that was tremendous..
