  1. I'd go for When Hero met Punk as well.

     

    Like I said before, I've just finished watching it, and its a very good tape if only for the main event.

     

    Seeing two men wrestle for more than 90 minutes, while keeping the action at a good pace and never boring the crowd through repetativeness is worth the money IMO.

     

    There was some sort of falling out with Ian- I think he mentions it in his chicagowrestling.com interview- I posted it on the board a while ago.

     

    I think that might have been the interview that I read. He says he is done with IWA:MS, but he doesn't really explain why.


  2. Low Ki should sort that part of his repertoir out, because knocking your opponent out from a kick to the head is completely unnaceptable.

    True. But in his defence, its not like he makes a habit of it.

     

    He's built a name for him self built partly on his stiff martial arts kicks. One accidental KO here or there can't really be cause to criticise him IMO.

     

    I'm not saying he is in the right, but based on what I have seen of Ki, I think it was probably a genuine accident rather than a result of him being careless.


  3. Gypsy Joe is around 70. He had a no-rules match against New Jack a few months ago.

     

    Moolah and Mae Young still take bookings. This year, Mae broke the record for the oldest

    person to ever wrestle. I believe she is 84.

    Is she actually as mad in real life as here character in the WWE now?

     

    If she isn't then she is still a damn fine actor.


  4. Since IWA is probably having trouble paying the lease.

    Oh right, I can understand it if that is the case. The news update just makes it sounds as if they are being kicke dout even though they are paying the full lease on the venue.

     

    Hopefully they'll bounce back.  They've done it before.

     

    Hopefully. Ive just finished watching "When Hero met Punk" and I thought it was very good. Dave Prazak is outstanding on commentary.

     

    I also read recently that CM Punk says he is done with IWA:MS. Anyone know whats caused that?


  5. Good review. I checked out TASW when I was in Texas on holiday this year, you might remember me saying that before.

     

    Shame about Strider leaving, I didn't think he was too bad when I saw him.

     

    Blaze looks like a 12 year old

     

    Did the fans get on him about that? I think he should turn heel. He could draw heel heat really easily. When I was there, people were chanting "Has Justin hit puberty yet?" and all sorts of other things.


  6. Bad Blood - Goldberg / HHH = Original main event before it got changed.

    As a side note: do we know if that match was actually ever going to take place?

     

    I've been behind with WWE programming for a long time, and have only now just caught up. I was wondering if they were just teasing it for a later date, or if they had actually planned to have that match at SS.

    Houston area cable providers featured a 30-second spot that said that that was the match. It even had clips of Goldberg talking shit about HHH.

    Really. I always thought it was a tease for a later date. I never really believed that trips would drop the belt, but at the same time, I don't think they would want Goldberg to be jobbing to anyone at this point.

     

    It would have been great to see, just for the sheer hell of seeing trips worm his way out of dropping the belt. Going over Steiner and Nash is one thing, but Goldberg is a whole new league when you consider the money they must have spent on signing him.

     

    This is why I was so sure trips would drop the belt to Nash. Hence allowing Nash to lose it to Goldberg, and then HHH to win it back from Goldberg. Bill would have had his title reign and trips would come out the eventual top dog.

     

    I dont know the general feeling here, but a HHH/Goldberg feud would be great TV IMO, if not for the actual matches but for the way each man protected themselves.


  7. This was actually the first WWE Sky box office show I haven't bought for a long time.

     

    I just couldnt justify the £14 when the DVD is only £18.

     

    I might end up getting the DVD now though. Are Silvervision still doing that deal where you get money off for pre-orders? Or is it too late for that now?

  9. I think its too early to pass comment.

     

    Take the contrast between Cena and O'haire for example.

     

    When Cena first appeared, he looked very bland and showed little promise. O'haire on the other hand was crazy over before he even stepped into the ring.

     

    A few months down the line and Cena is becoming a very good heel whereas O'haire has little to no heat at all.

     

    Who knows where Jordan will be in a few months time?
