WOW, I suddenly want to order a tape IN ADVANCE. Those are two AWESOME cards. ::starts wondering about the possible off the charts spots that AJ/Delirious are going to do to beat their first IWA-MS match::

Hey, I'm as happy for London as everyone else. I think that's fucking great. Sure, their range of opponents won't be too impressive, but still - he deserves it. But don't forget about that six-man match. That looks pretty damn good, too. And the main event. I think I'm going to watch an entire SmackDown! show for the first time in months, and possibly tape it so as to savor the awesomeness of what SmackDown! POTENTIALLY can be, but very rarely seems to be.

I'm pretty sure there's no button in the bottom left for Set Audio Levels, but I am able to get into that dialog box by going to Edit>Audio Levels. At that point, a box comes up that says Audio Levels, and then has one of those things where you drag an icon to one side of a straight line of the other. On the left side of the straight line it says Video Track and on the right it says Audio Track. When I first opened it, the icon was in the very middle between the two. I dragged it all the way in both directions and tried playing the entire video (anotherwards, clicking on Play Entire Storyboard/Timeline and the same thing happens - each clip plays in order that I have set up, just as they should, but each one has completely different music in the background. Does anyone have any idea if it has anything to do with this Set Audio Levels thing, or if something else is the problem. Should I make a few more screenshots so as to show what it looks like - would that help?Thanks for the suggestion, though, RavishingRickRudo.

Come on...anyone have any idea what the problem is? I've got all the clips selected, but I can't do anything more unless I have the music set up, because otherwise I'm just randomly guessing how the music will go. I can't just count on it playing in the background because for some reason that won't work. I know I probably shouldn't be bumping this, but come on...anyone know what the deal is with this program and why what's happening is happening? Thanks very much in advance.

Has anyone ordered from this company/guy and know if they/he are/is legit? I'm thinking of buying, but I'm hesitant to, especially considering he just signed up recently for the board.

I'm glad I'm not the only one. It took me awhile to find it, too. They seem to have taken the link out of the Multimedia section. You have to go to the second page of the archived News section to get the link. It's weird. http://tnawrestling.com/vod/vod.html

I'm no Tenay, but I know the guy is still wrestling. I think he took a year or something off, but I know for a fact he wrestled on an indy show about two months ago for the first time in a while that I can remember.

I've always liked Noble a lot. I think he's immensely underrated and can really do it all...submissions, matwork, aerial, even some brawling. He's able to adjust to so many different styles. Some of his indy work right before he came to WWE, i.e. the Super 8 tournament of ECWA, is really great. He's one of the few guys in WWE now that I could see getting fired and really making an impact on the indy circuit, and climb up the rankings to the level of AJ Styles, Chris Daniels, CM Punk, etc. I'd really like to see him vs. Jimmy Rave, Trent Acid, Punk, or Josh Prohibition.

I don't have the capabilities to capture my own footage, unfortunately. I don't even know how I'd go about doing that. Thanks for the tips, cue meanie. I have some more questions, which are much more specific. I started the MV a few days ago and so far have about 1:40 of video picked out that I'm definitely going to use in the video. That's not the problem. The problem is getting the song to work...not fit with the clips...but just plain play. I'm using the most recent version of Windows Media Maker. Right now, i'm trying to use Creed's "My Sacrifice" as the song. I went to Creed's site and DLed the WMA version of the song, and then went to File>Import, but the file didn't show up until I pressed All Files, and when I double clicked on it then, it said that it can't read the file. The only audio file that it can read, it seems, is WAV's, and I can't find any WAV versions of the song anywhere, whether it be on Kazaa or the Internet. So, what I did is this - I clicked the "Record" icon on the upper toolbar, right under the File, Edit, View, etc. menus. When the option box for the Record function came up, I pressed Record. It started beeping Record at that point, so I minimized the program and opened up the WMV Music video of My Sacrifice that I also downloaded, and started playing that. So, what I did was record the audio of that into the Record function of Windows Media Maker, if that makes sense. When I pressed stop recording, a Save dialog box came up, asking me to save the audio I had just made, which I did (the default format that it wanted me to save it in was WMA, so I did that). After pressing Save, this new audio that I had just finished making a few seconds ago automatically got added to My Collections area of my project. So, when I clicked on the icon for this particular audio clip and pressed Play, it worked fine - the entire My Sacrifice song that I had just recorded from the MV video version played (although not with a picture, obviously, since I was just recording the sound). I then right clicked on the icon for this audio clip and added it to the "Timeline" of my project, which is where you alter the order of the clips, where you can trip clips, and where you alter the speed of clips. So, at this point, my screen looks like this: http://www.geocities.com/xpw5yearslater/comp_image.doc I tried to make that into an image so that you wouldn't have to DL it, but I'm really bad at computers, as you can probably tell, so that's the best I could figure out how to do. So, that's what it looks like. When I click on the "my_sacrifice_creed" bar that you see at the bottom of the image, the song plays fine. However, when I click on one of the clips in the row right above and press play, it plays the clips, but each one with the sound that the original source material had as background music. So, one clip will have a rock song as background, and then it'll change into the next clip, which will have rap music, and then it'll change to the next clip, which hsa punk rock music, etc. etc. etc. How do I get all of the clips to play with "my sacrifice" as the background music? I can't figure it out. I've read through the help topics tons of times, but the only section that even covers background music is called "Working with audio," and all it says is that audio works the same as clips, and you have to add it to the Storyboard in order to make it work. But I did that, and it still won't work.

But not ultra!

The Nate Dogg guy betted like 5 times...that's pathetic.

Hey...sorry for bumping, but I was watching Living Dangerously '99 and in the first 30 seconds of the match, they breakup after the initial tieup and Sabu backs up and touches a cameraman with his foot so he turns around and says, "Get the fuck ooutta my way," absolutely clear as day. You can hear it perfectly. Good stuff.

How many interviews/promos has Sabu done in his career? I think he did a promo back in the early '90's with Gideon Wainwright, then he did a hotline interview in like '94 I think it was (the one where he said he'd like to wrestle Bret Hart and HBK if he ever got the chance), a Wrestling.IGN.com interview, and an interview for Rampage Wrestling Magazine. I also seem to remember him saying something about Taz being a midget on an ECW show. But anyway. Anyone have any memories of seeing/hearing him talk? How does he sound? Has anyone met him and talked to him? I tried to get an interview with him a few weeks ago and even went through one of his closest friends in the business, and even they told me they could try, but they really doubted he'd be willing to. Shows you how much the guy LIVES his gimmick. And also - are there any video clips anywhere on the net of him doing promos?

There's only one AJ Styles match...how's that too much? If anything, it's too little...

Damn you. You got my hopes up.

New England Pro Wrestling TV Aired at 9:00 AM on Saturday, July 3, 2004 in selected Connecticut outlets Check out CTChampionshipWrestling.com for full info on how to catch NEPW TV if you live in the Connecticut area. Report by Jonathan on Saturday, July 3, 2004 - Opening NEPW TV highlight video, featuring Balls Mahoney, Raven, Sabu, The S.A.T., and various others. - All of these matches were taped on the June 23, 2004 Connecticut Championship Wrestling WrestleJam show at the Camm School in Northford, CT. - Jeff “The Hungryman” Harris and CCW promoter Joe LaChance are on commentary for this week’s episode of NEPW TV and a subsequent edition of CCW Combat TV. - A quick clip of American Idol coming to the ring is shown before the awesome CCW Combat TV promo video airs. Then, back to live action, as Idol will participate in this episode’s battle royal. However, before that gets underway, NEPW TV commentator Jeff “The Hungryman” Harris has some strong words for American Idol. The Hungryman challenges Idol to an American Idol Sing-Off, a contest that Idol starts by singing karaoke to a Spanish pop song. The only problem – Idol doesn’t live up to his name and only utters one word of the song (“Tequila”), before silencing himself. The Hungryman shrugs off Idol’s lousy effort and starts singing his heart out to a Billy Joel song, only to be attacked by the apparently jealous Idol! At this point, Bad Leroy Brown charges out and tries to save The Hungryman by tossing Idol out of the ring, as the match officially begins. BATTLE ROYAL for a shot at a Title of the Winner’s Choice: American Idol vs. Bad Leroy Brown vs. The Iron Eagle vs. Dave Cole vs. Nocturne vs. The Super Ninja vs. Osirus vs. Wiqued vs. Molsonn vs. Dave Wilcox Idol initially gains control by re-entering the ring and attacking Leroy, while the big man is checking on The Hungryman. The Iron Eagle his tag team partner, Leroy, from a further beating by breaking up Idol’s assault, only to fall victim to the offense of Dave Cole, the newest entry. Next out is Nocturne, who unsuccessfully tries to push Nocturne out of the ring, as the participants start piling in – The Super Ninja (a guy in red ring attire with a red mask), Osirus, the 400 lb. Molsonn, Wiqued, and finally Dave Wilcox. Being the bad guy he is, Wilcox stoops so low as to attack The Hungryman at ringside, while the non-wrestler is being helped to the back by some officials. At last Sunday’s show in Fairfield, Wilcox seemed to be playing the face, so I’m a little confused, but he I guess that at that show he just had to adjust because he was going up against Texas Outlaw, a guy who’s a natural heel. Anyway, though – Wilcox then enters the match and starts dominating the pace for the next two or so minutes, as he eliminates Ninja and even Molsonn (who the commentators had picked as one of the favorites to win) and also Chokeslams Leroy. Wilcox’s strategy backfires, though, as everyone turns their attention to him and – after a few minutes of beating on him – finally eliminate the big guy, thanks in part to a Leroy dropkick to the back. Wilcox saves Idol from being eliminated by catching him when Leroy press slams him out to ringside. He then rolls Idol back into the ring, but the youngster’s inexperience shows, as he’s eliminated soon thereafter by Cole. At this point, Cole ducks an Eagle charge and Eagle accidentally knocks his partner, Leroy, out of the ring, after which Eagle gets pushed out by Nocturne. It’s now down to Nocturne and Cole, but not for long, as Nocturne hits a modified T.K.O. (Fireman’s Carry Stunner) in which he falls backwards while executing the move, and then tosses Cole out to garner the victory. WINNER: Nocturne, who therefore receives a shot at a title of his choice Nocturne ended up choosing the CCW Tag Team Titles as his upcoming goal on this past Sunday’s show in Fairfield and designated his partner as Hallowicked. You can check out reviews of that show by myself, Adam Dolan, and Luscious Lily over at DeclarationOfIndependents.net. - Finally, it’s time for the match I’ve wanted to see since its buildup was aired on last week’s episode. Out comes Florida sensation Mikey Batts, who’s the real-life cousin of Billy Kidman. Batts gets a great ovation and reunites with his hometown fans before entering the ring, only to hightail it out to ringside when J-Busta charges in. I thought J-Busta was supposed to be playing the face here. Since when does a heel scare a face out of the ring? Isn’t it supposed to be the other way around? More heel/face confusion. But it’s all good because this match is looking really good, especially judging by last week’s mega-intense promo by Batts. MIKEY BATTS vs. J-BUSTA Batts eventually enters and J-Busta attacks him, only to receive a Huracanrana for his troubles. J-Busta rolls out of the ring himself to find some safety, and now he’s acting how a heel should. BullDog Blanskey comes out in a special enforcer-type role and intimidates J-Busta into re-entering. A couple of initial tieups lead to some exchanges of hammerlocks, waistlocks, and waistlock takedowns, before Batts escapes a grounded hammerlock by rolling through the hold and armdragging J-Busta, which leads to another stalemate. Batts now goes to grapple, but instead J-Busta attacks him with a kneelift and then some big punches. Batts absorbs a nice Sitdown Inverted Powerbomb counter to a bodyscissors bounceup before coming back with another bodyscissors bounceup and turning it into a sweet Stunner. That’s followed by a Superkick, which sends J-Busta out to ringside, where BullDog Blanskey’s presence distracts him and – as a result – he turns around into a Springboard Plancha by Batts. The move knocks a fan out of their seat in the process. A slugfest and simultaneous “Holy Sh*t!” chant ensues before they re-enter the squared circle. There, J-Busta starts dissecting his legs (specifically his left one) with a low dropkick, some elbow drops, and a legsweep kick, displaying some good psychology. J-Busta nails a German Suplex for a 2 count, and then receives a shoulder-mounted victory roll for a 2 count before beating Batts to his feet and taking him down with a Yakuza Kick. J-Busta ignores the “Mikey Batts!” chant and unloads with a version of Samoa Joe’s ChimeraPlex, as he executes two consecutive German Suplexes rolled into a Tiger Suplex. J-Busta’s control comes to an end because of his arrogance, though, as Batts is able to regain control with a Jawbreaker Stunner counter to a sleeper hold for a 2 count. J-Busta gets his foot on the ropes after a sloppy Tilt-a-Whirl Swinging DDT from Batts and fights back with a Piledriver, followed by a unique Fisherman’s-style backwards cradle pin for a 2 count. A reversal sequence in the corner leads to Batts hitting a Low Ki-style Slingshot Enziguri Face Kick, and then utilizing two sunset flips in a matter of about a minute, with the second one being enough to get him the 3 count for the victory! WINNER: Mikey Batts (via pinfall) BullDog Blanskey enters the ring and briefly celebrates with Batts before J-Busta offers a handshake. Batts’ hesitance acceptance turns out to be a mistake, as J-Busta suddenly sends Batts down with a lariat and then hustles out of the ring, as BullDog helps a frustrated Batts up to his feet. - Backstage, Dan Barry cuts a promo on his opponent in the next match, Spider. - As usual, Spider is really popular and subsequently gets a great pop from the fans. I even spotted his signature female fan in the crowd. Spider is followed by Dan Barry, who attacks his opponent with some slaps and then runs out of the ring. I think it’s pretty safe to assume that he’ll be playing the heel here, right? Ladders Are Legal Match (It’s still pinfall-style, which is why it’s not technically a normal Ladder Match.): The SPIDER vs. DAN BARRY Barry maintains control for most of the first grappling sequence by unloading on Spider’s arm with some kicks, a standing senton, and a few armringers, before being dropkicked out to ringside. After slowly re-entering, Barry again takes advantage during the second tieup and then flips out of a backdrop suplex attempt and applies a waistlock. Spider ducks some of Barry’s offense and they botch a wheelbarrow bounceup attempt, before another squareoff ensues. A tieup sees Barry weaken Spider with some eyepokes, only to fall victim to a nice-looking Diving Swinging DDT off of the middle buckle. The best part is that Barry sells the move awesomely by bouncing a few feet so that he ends up tangled in the ring ropes. It’s little things like that which make a match special. Spider exits the ring and goes to fetch a ladder, but Barry attacks him and tosses him face-first into the steel ringpost, before retrieving the ladder himself. Barry tosses the ladder into the ring, landing it on Spider, and then re-enters via a sweet Springboard Leg Drop for a 2 count (thanks to his arrogant and lazy cover). Barry then delivers a DDT, only for Spider to come back with a Pescada. Then – when Barry rolls back into the ring – Spider throws the ladder over the ropes like a javelin so that it knocks Barry down to the mat. Ah, a taste of his own medicine, eh? However, Spider finds a rejuvenated Barry when he re-enters and receives three consecutive leaping roundhouse kicks, the last of which finally sends him down to the match. Next, Barry brings the ladder into the ring and tosses it onto Spider, before delivering an innovative kick to the side of the head. Spider takes two types of suplexes – one in which he receives a normal suplex from Barry and the other where Barry suplexes a ladder onto Spider’s body. Cooky offense by Barry here. Spider now regains the advantage by leaping up onto the middle ring rope and Russian Leg Sweeping his opponent back down to the mat as Barry was attempting a slingshot. Very sweet counter that came out of nowhere. Spider sets up the ladder in the corner and climbs it, but Barry makes it back to his feet, climbs up himself, and applies a sleeper hold while both are standing on the stricture. Spider counters by leaping off and pulling Barry with him in an attempt at a Flying Stunner, but both guys lose their grip on one another while in midair and it looks a little bit awkward. The effort was there, though. Spider comes back with a big beil throw before the competitors execute a rope-run sequence, in which Spider baseball slides short of the ladder (which is laid up against the top ring rope), and then starts dodging and fighting off all of Barry’s attempted offense (a lariat, a hiptoss, and a Sharpshooter). Finally, Spider is able to find an opening, as he drops out of a Powerbomb, ducks another lariat, and then back body drops Barry onto the ladder! Spider brings the ladder out to ringside and bridges it across two ringside chairs. Barry attacks him, but gets tossed into an empty pile of set-up chairs (in which no fans are sitting). Spider proceeds to ram Barry face-first into the ladder before laying his body down on it and trying to crash onto him with a Suicide Dive through the ropes. Spider sort of connects, but it looks fairly painful because he comes up short and hits the top of his head on the ladder’s side, thereby bending the appliance a bit. The replay reveals that the back of Spider’s foot got slightly caught on the ropes as he was leaping through them. Spider is up to his feet first, though, as he DDTs Barry onto the ladder, before rolling him back into the ring and attempting The Arachnophobia (Sliced Bread #2). Barry, though, does a nice counter and turns it into a Stunner in mid-move to obtain a 2 count. A few moments later, Barry probably had it won after escaping an attempted Super Huracanrana and delivering an awesome Super Fireman’s Carry Michinoku Driver off of the middle buckle, but his arrogance comes into play and he pulls Spider’s body up at 2. That very well may prove to be a mistake. Barry now attempts a Moonsault, but Spider moves and then tries his own, only for Barry to also dodge it. Now, both competitors fight to their feet and Spider nabs a 2 count with a sunset flip, before some pinning combos are traded for some near falls. Finally, Spider gets taken down to the mat with a Yakuza Kick, allowing Barry to bring the ladder into the ring and bridge it on the bottom ring ropes in the corner. Barry tries a Spider German Suplex in which he’d drop Spider head/face-first onto the ladder, but Spider counters and backflips into an ARACHNOPHOBIA~!, slamming Barry back-first onto the ladder! You better believe he’s not getting up from that! And best of all – that innovative finishing spot came off looking absolutely perfect, ending a solid match that was built up very well, and even featured a surprising amount of psychology. Spider celebrates his well-deserved victory as we cut out. WINNER: The Spider (via pinfall) - Chris DeJoseph is standing backstage for a post-match interview with Spider. DeJoseph asks him how he feels and Spider says that he’s definitely hurt – he’s got a banged up knee and a sore back, and then sarcastically advises people not to try what they just saw at home. DeJoseph asks where Spider sees himself now, as far as titles are concerned. Spider responds that after getting a clean 2/3 Falls victory over J-Busta and defeating Dan Barry in a Ladder Match (as we just saw), he’s aiming for the CCW Northeast Title from now on. That assessment actually works out perfectly because – as fans saw last Sunday at CCW Revolution – Spider competed in a four corners match to the determine the number one contender for that title, and ended up emerging as the winner, just as he did here. - The signature video for CCW Combat TV segues into the usual NEPW TV opening, featuring Luis Ortiz, The S.A.T., Balls Mahoney, Raven, Sabu, and others.

Ouch Actually, Dutt's gimmick stunner is weird. Sometimes it's not even a stunner. Sometimes its a DDT onto his knee and then a Neckbreaker. Sometimes a DDT onto his knee and a stunner. Sometimes some other wacky shit. Sometimes called the Cal Cut Cut. Sometimes the Calcutta Cut. Sometimes the Calcutta Cutta. Either way, though, it's fucking boss. Good review, too. I enjoyed it.

Lately, I've been having the same problem with Internet Explorer and AOL on my other computer. Neither will open period, so to view the Internet i have to go in my documents and change the URL box. I still haven't figured out what the problem is and it's remained like this for about two months now. Luckily, I have this other computer.

C-L-A-S-S-I-C.

According to Meltzer, the death in AJ's family was that his brother had committed suicide. I don't really know what to say in that situation. My best wishes go out to AJ and his family. It's really unfortunate he has to deal with that.

Good stuff! Thanks for posting. I know I was one of the people who was really asking for it to be posted out of curiosity, so thanks much! Or rather - Thank You Very Much For Posting It. I thought the guy said the interviews and promos were actually spelled out word-for-word, though...? EDIT: This COULD actually be worth something because it's the HeAT before the first PPV since '94 that Vince wasn't at. Also, anyone notice they didn't put the ! after SmackDown? You'd think they'd know how to spell the name of their own show right, LOL.

I met Manute several months ago at a basketball clinic. Very nice guy. Hopefully he gets better. My best wishes go out to him.

Abismo Negro rules. As does Shelley and Romeo. I'm happy to see that Romeo's returning. The problem is they don't know how to use any of these guys, save for Shelley. The match with Skipper should be good, but Romeo & Dutt vs. the Naturals and Negro vs. Monty? Boo!

It doesn't have really have one. His regular Uranage Backbreaker is the Sabalizer. I've never heard the Fallaway Slam into Sabalizer have a move. But I guess it's a variation of the Sabalizer, or something...

http://www.50-cent.us/cd1/track05.php Read the first four words under "[50 Cent]" for my advice to these two. Thanks.
