-Conspicous is the absence of the 9/21 Michael Shane ladder streetfight and the Epic Encounter match, although those matches are basically the only reasons to buy Unscripted and EE respectively. I imagine RF didn't want to hurt ROH tape sales by including them on this one. Also, London vs. Angel Dust is only 2 minutes long, but all the other matches range from solid-very good.

[EL DANDY~!]

so you'd advise to get the ROH tapes before getting this one? Because from what I heard, the ROH matches with Shane are absolutely awesome.

[Guest ShooterJay]

London/Shane 9/21 should be absolutely required viewing. Same with Epic Encounter.

 

I have the Shane match listed on this tape (the "Honor Invades Boston" one), it's somehere between *** and ***1/2. Solid with a good storyline, nothing spectacular.

 

If you really want to see London's three best matches IMO, they're on Unscripted, Night of the Butcher, and Epic Encounter. (as I said, none of which are on here) However, this tape

is still a very good pickup, with a ton of lesser known and Japan stuff.

they should have put London vs Ki vs AJ on there....and also Xavier vs London from the same night....great matches

Is London vs. Shane at Unscripted the match where London does the SSP off the huge ladder?

The very same.

You must be kidding. That match is so overrated, it's sickening. I mean, I can understand it being so great in front of a live crowd, but if you are going to tell me that it is a five star match, and a MOTYC, then you are mistaken my friend. It was nothing but a spot fest, a good one at that, yes, but not even near *****. *** I will give it.

 

 

 

Edit: I am talking about the street fight from Unscripted.

London's best stuff is against Dragon on 12/7/02 and 4/12/03. He also had a ***1/2 against Xavier on 12/28/02 and a ***1/4 against Xavier on 2/8/03.

Everybody's best stuff is against Dragon

[Guest Dynamite Kido]

I think London's best match was definatly the street fight with Shane at unscripted....
