Thanks. Do J-Crown Tourneys still happen, or was it a one off thing? Are the belt still held as one, or are they split between different people now? If the WWF Light Heavy weight title is one of the 8, then i guess they must be split. How did that happen? ChUnK!

I would be very interested in an number of your tapes. (Im 99,99999999% sure ive contacted you before) I have no money at the moment, because im ploughing it all into the silvervisions sale. However, i would like to keep a list of all your tapes and you email etc, and ill contact you as soon as i have funds again. Sound fair enough?

Thats the way I figured it aswell, but I could be wrong. It's a pretty sweet picture none the less though I might ask in the puro folder for someone to verify about the belts. ChUnK!

I've just checked out that picture on Mondo's site, and that is just SICK! How could you do that to another human being? How could you let that happen to your self? If death matches are you're thing, then your entitled to your opinion, but that sort of thing just goes beyond wrestling, and in my eyes is not wrestling. How can CZW produce shows like BOTB and then stuff like that? Give me staright up wrestling anyday! ChUnK!

How can you view Tyson above Lewis as a boxer? When they went head to head there was only one winner - Lewis! And it was a clean KO! Sure Tyson would draw more in the US, but as Choken one says, i dont think anyone will buy it for real if Tyson is involved. He's been involved with the WWE before, and now has little creditbility in the boxing world. To your casual fan, it might look as though Tyson had said enough is enough with boxing and had decided to try his hand at something new.

Lewis is (or at least was) considering retirement anyway. So its not as though his career is on the line or anything.

I had heard good things about Brookside before the show, so the fact that I was expecting a lot might have influenced my opinion on the final match. It would be a bit harsh of me to judge him on a single performance though, so I'll look for more from him if I see him wrestle in the future

I know its a while now since the show happened, but ive finally gotten round to uploading my pictures from the event, so I thought I would post them along with my thoughts on the show. It was the first FWA show I had ever been to, so I wasn't sure what to expect. When I first got into the York Hall, I was actually supprised at how tiny the ring was. I'm rubbish at reviewing shows that I go to live, I always miss something and end up getting rapped up in whats going on too much. I'm ok with TV, but not when it's live, so i'll just give my opinions and thoughts for now. The first match (Triple threat: James Tighe Vs Jack Xavier Vs Raj Gosh) was, in my opinion very good. I liked the way that they did a number of three way spots, rather then just having 1 vs 1 whilst the third guy was on the outside. I also think that the guys here did a great job of getting the crowd motiviated. They would frequently stop to clap their hands etc, in order to get the crowd into it. I think this set the tempo for the rest fo the night. Hade Vansen Vs The Zebra Kid. I thought this match was decent enough and there were some decent spots. The thing I remember from this, was a little 8 year old kid, a couple of rows next to me shouting "Come on Zebra Man!" Well it made me laugh The Pitbulls vs The New Breed. I kind of missed out on some of what happened here because im new to the FWA. I didnt quite understand the run in, and why it ended up 2 vs 1, but I guess if youv'e seen the build up to the show, it all makes perfect sense. Still this match, wasn't very good, and kind of bored me after the opening matches I had just seen. Still, an awesome table spot which happened really close to me, so that was good. Drew Macdonald Vs Robbie Brookside. This was also a bad match. It just was going where, the moves shown were pretty boring, and it screamed "time filler" to me, which made me wonder why they had spent time and effort setting it up with the "TWA sactioned" gimmick/angle over the radio. Jerry Lynn Vs Doug Williams. WOW, I loved this match. I thought the crowd was loud, until Jerry came out. The crowd blew the roof off. I was kind of shocked that this match was before the interval, but it was still good. I think it would have been better later on, when the crowd were completely ready for it, but I can't take away from the great performances from the two guys. Doug Williams went over, which I dont think even supprised the people casually passing by the arena on their way home from the pub, but you cant really expect anything else when the American workers work abroad in one off matches. Nikita Vs Paul Travell. I was really really impressed with this match. Without trying to sound sexist (which im not - honest ! ) womens matches are often not as good as male matches. I had also heard that Nikita was totally written off for her performance at FWA: Revival. Still, I thought she did very well here. She took some big bumps that I have to give her credit for, and I think this match was probablly better than the "tag" match and the TWA santioned match put together. I'm not trying to say it was an outstanding exhibition of wrestling ability, but it did prove for me that intergender matchups dont always have to be poor. And I think Nikia more than answered her critics. Ulf Herman Vs Balls Mahoney. The crowd went all out for the Balls entrance as well. I also met Balls after the show, and he said that he would definetly come back to the FWA after the reception that "you guys gave me". This match took ages to get started, which I think worked well with the incredibly loud crowd. When it eventually started, I was very supprised with how good the actual match was. Apart from the very visible blade job on the part of Balls I thought the guys put on a good brawl. I loved it when they brawled to the outside, I was this close to the pair of them ) They totally wrecked SST's stall and for a moment I thought they were going to go out onto the streets (I swear the thought crossed Balls' mind ) Classic!That would have been awesome, but when they took it back to the ring and the thumb tacks came out, it made up for it. Ulf looked a little shy of taking the big bump throughtout the macth, but Balls wasn't and when he did I was very impressed with the overall match. Plus seeing Balls stick tacks into his own head was awesome, and pretty funny, and some of the chair shots in that match were shocking. Great stuff! AJ Styles Vs Jonny Storm. Im a huge AJ fan, so there was no way I was ever going to be anything other than impressed with this match. I thought both men put on a great performance, AJ slightly missed his Leg drop from the top rope (easier to call it that) but we got to see a 2nd rope Styles Clash so thats good enough for me. Jonny Storm also impressed me here, he seems like quite the little high flyer, despite looking like X-Pac Jody Feisch Vs Flash Barker. I really thought that these two would have trouble following what we had allready seen. But was I wrong or was I wrong. Some awesome spots throughout (particularly with the ones onto the ladders between the ring and the security railings), but I think it will be obviously remembered for that Huge moonsault off the 20 foot baclony WOW! An awesome end to an awesome night. I am now officially an FWA fan for life. I wear the T-shirt I bought on the night with pride, and I look forward hugely to the Broxbourne show in December. Which leaves me with one thing to say.... well chant actually, F-W-A, F-W-A, F-W-A, F-W-A, F-W-A, F-W-A, F-W-A cheers, ChUnK! If you want to use my pics, then please credit me first. I have stacks more, but I only have a 56k modem so it takes sooooo long to upload them that I had to pick the best ones. Let me know what you think of my pics and review. Each link below takes you to a different one of the photos I uploaded, i've also added a few to this post for a taster. Enjoy and let me know what you think.

Right, I see. Genious I tells ya!

The whole point of the show was to cater to all sorts of fans and this was meant to appeal to te old school fan. Also the FWA always have a first half main event and a second half main event and that is why doug Vs jerry was where it was. Good pictures as well. Cheers, feel free to use them if your writting a review or anything (just credit me) I have got some more as well, but like i said it takes me ages to upload them all. I now understand about the double main event thing. I dont know if its how i would run things, but i understand if thats they way they always do things. I can also see the plan behind the TWA match. It's a pity the match wasn't better though. ChUnK!

Thanks for the heads up. It really annoys me that i only have a crappy 56k dial up connection. BT (the phone company in england) won't upgrade the local telephone exchange, so i can't get a better connection and theres nothing i can do (unless i pay out for satellite adsl). Its a shame as well, because i bought BOTB 1, and started to really get into. Oh Well, thanks anyway. ChUnK!

My copy of the ROH shows I see. This may seem dumb to everyone else, but why do you call them that?

I see, i didnt think it could be, but it does look a lot like him (well i think so anyway - apart from the size of course) If he can wrestle though, it cant be the old ultimate warrior LOL ChUnK!

Ok, im with you now. Thanks for clearing that up Let me know when the Jake one is ready, cheers ChUnK!

True. But im sure i remember hearing that they were trying to buy out the ecw footage, so you never know. Plus if some one tells vince that he could make even more money by selling wcw footage, then he might just do it. jm29195 => Im sure both of those dvd's came out after the switch to wwe, so i should be able to pick them up at a later date after the silvervision sale ends. Thanks for the advice. ChUnK!

Anyone know if this tape will be deleted by silvervision? Will any of the WCW tapes have to be deleted? I heard they bought all the footage of WCW when they bought the company out. I also heard they were trying to do the same for ECW, but acclaim were putting up a fight. So will this tape be deleted as well on November the 7th? And will other WCW videos be released by Silvervision in the future? Heres the full link: http://www.silvervision.co.uk/cgi-bin/silv...duct/View/WV001 ChUnK!

They'll be 2 new Vamp tapes out soon. One with rare very early footage Another with the unedited Anniversary show footage-and an interview I'm shooting tomorrow. Do you shoot all your own videos then? Surely not! I've heard your video quality is very good though (picture wise) so maybe you do. Also Razazteca=> this may sound like a stupid question, but is that actually the ultimate warrior in yor sig? Its his double if it isnt

thanks for the advice, ill try it when i get a chance. I think it will be more hassle than its worth with my crappy 56k modem though ChUnK!

thanks for the info. Whats a loaner?

No, that is the only WCW tape they have. I just meant, if they have the rights to the WCW footage, then it wont be long before we start seeing wcw tapes released by the wwe. Due to the fact that Silvervision have like 7 tapes left on their site (after Nov 7th) then, i thought that they might start selling some WCW tapes in the immediate future. If you only get 1-2 mins, I wont get it then, thanks for the tip. ChUnK!

HUH?

I really dont see the point in this happening. If they dont promote via WWE TV (which i agree they shouldnt because it will look like a work) then no of your "sports entertainment" fans will watch it. And the ones that do will find it horribly boring compared to the usual "main events" they see. Therefore, even if angle and brock win, it could go relatively un-noticed. Sure ppl would hear about it afterwards, but your average "sports entertainment" fan might not ever see the fight.

About 13 hours ago (easier that way because we are all in different time zones) i couldnt access the site for a couple of hours. This happens to me from time to time, and so is quite a regular thing. (Once a fortnight approx) The first couple of times it happened i thought it was a coincidence, but im not sure now. Is this just me, and hence a rpoblem with my computer? Or does everyone experience this? Any idea what it could be?

Where is the server held? Who is responsible for runing the site? Who set up the site and forum in the first place? Sorry for the barrage of questions, i jus got-a-wonderin thats all ChUnK!

BAR => I checked out that 100% pur Dynamite comp, and its actually 3 tapes! for £12! Which seems like a really good deal to me. So my wallet has recovered from the bashing that silvervision is giving it, i will definelty try and get that comp. Thanks very much for the tip. ChUnK!
