I might try to go to Salem but that road trip isn't that much shorter but it's a Friday and I don't have to work the next day so there's no hurry to get back. As for TPI, looks good so far. Now I gotta decide if I use my vacation week to go to TPI or the ROH double shot in August. And who is this Brookside dude and why is everyone getting all worked up over him being in the tourney?

He's a modern-day fore-father for British wrestling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
King Cucaracha 0 Report post Posted June 26, 2005 Three new additions to the TPI field, from the IWA's board. Mike Quackenbush, Super Dragon and Kevin Steen are now announced names, bringing the field up to 12. Three great additions. And Quack officially becomes my pick for the tournament. Updated List: [2000 SS16 Winner] CHRIS HERO [2004 TPI Winner] "The Phenomenal" AJ STYLES JAMES GIBSON "Wonderkid" JONNY STORM ROBBIE BROOKSIDE "The Product" MAREK BRAVE TYLER BLACK "American Dragon" BRYAN DANIELSON "The Notorious 187" HOMICIDE "Lightning" MIKE QUACKENBUSH SUPER DRAGON "Mr Wrestling" KEVIN STEEN Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Youth N Asia 0 Report post Posted June 26, 2005 Quack and Dragon had a good semifinals match last year. I'd like to see IWA put at least one of their own in the finals this year. Last year it was Dragon, Joe, and AJ. The three biggest names, sure, but no real IWA guys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phoenix Fury Legdrop 0 Report post Posted June 26, 2005 I don't know if Quack will/should make it to the finals this year...him winning BOTB5 kind of killed the mystique of him winning TPI. I really wish the finals were one-on-one...then the finals would be easy as hell to predict: Sydal vs. Styles, with Sydal finally getting the win. I still expect Sydal to finally get his win over Styles somewhere in the tournament. I think Danielson'll probably be in the finals again. Hero'll probably gain a momentum rally coming off of War Games and get into the finals. The third guy? Most likely someone who isn't even announced yet.

Guest Evolution Report post Posted June 27, 2005 Definitely going to Valpo on Saturday and definitely going to TPI to support my two boys. Although Tyler has been saying that he hasn't been feeling too great lately, and he's even told Ian he might not be good to go for Valpo, since he wants to pull out all the stops in his TLC match with Ryan Boz and Abyss for No Limits.

Brookside is probably the weakest, IMO, but not because of his skills. He's fun to watch, just a bit unknown to most casual indy fans. Also not a HUGE Rainman fan. Dunno why. Rave would of been a better addition. They're will probably still be a 3 or 4 matches throughtout the tournament that are Non Tournament Matches. I wouldnt mind seeing Another Jacobs v. Delirious ladder match. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
