Let us talk about Velocity....

[haws bah gawd]

tekcop, I think the main reason I like the match so much is because of AJ's selling. He ends up bumping on his head for nearly everything Hurricane throws at him, and thats what at least IMO makes the match fun to watch.

[bob_barron]

Matt Hardy v. Paul London was a great match. Matt gave him a lot of offence.

[Epic Reine]

I'm suprised no one has mentioned John Cena vs Paul London from Velocity either late 2002 or early 2003. Noble vs Bryan Danielson from early '03 was a treat as well.

[Dark Age]

So, would anyone actually be interested if I made a comp with some of this stuff? I'm looking up some dates now, so the more info on these matches, the better. Anyone remember these, and, if so, how are they?:

 

April 12, 2003 - Nunzio, Chuck Palumbo, and Johnny Stamboli vs. Eddie Guerrero, Chavo Guerrero, and Sho Funaki

 

July 19, 2003 - Chuck Palumbo and Johnny Stamboli vs. Sho Funaki and Brian Kendrick

 

August 2, 2003 - Matt Hardy vs. Brian Kendrick

 

August 9, 2003 - World Tag Team Champions Charlie Haas and Shelton Benjamin vs. Brian Kendrick and Sho Funaki

 

September 13, 2003 - Jamie Noble vs. Chris Kanyon

 

November 8, 2003 - Brian Kendrick and Paul London vs. Shannon Moore and Kanyon

 

December 20, 2003 - Cruiserweight Champion Yoshihiro Tajiri vs. Paul London

Johnny Stamboli vs. Brian Kendrick

Billy Kidman and Ultimo Dragon vs. Akio and Sekoda

 

They all caught my eye.

[Downhome]

Doug Basham Vs. Mark Jindrak

 

That SHOULD work. I encourage everyone to check it out.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

 

I don't even know what to say about that. Both of those guys showed me more in that one match than I've ever seen from them before.

 

This thread needs more downloads like this one.

I'll have London/Spanky v. Moore/Kanyon uploaded in a few minutes

[Dark Age]

Much appreciated Bob.

 

Damn, that was a really fun match. If only they had 17 minutes, instead of 7. Still, it was longer than I thought it would be. Shannon wasn't great (but wasn't bad, either), but London and Spank just ruled it. Great offense from London at the end. Some really neat false finishes and nearfalls. Just great fun. Love it.

[Toshiaki Koala]

Didn't Samoa Joe get squashed by Essa Rios back in 2001 or something?

 

And if anyone can upload the Noble vs. Danielson matches, that would be super.

[Dark Age]

Yeah, I wanna see those matches. I remember they had one at the end of 02/ start of 03 and it was really good.

 

I've got Tajiri and Akio vs. London and Kidman on here, but it's pretty bad quality.

[bob_barron]

Noble v. Danielson was awesome.

 

Rico v. Danielson was good as well.

 

There was also a London/Spanky v. Walters/Danielson match that was good but way too short.

 

I'll put 2003 up in a minute

[claydude14]

Holy shit, Basham/Jindrrak and Spanky & London/Kanyon & Moore have made me VERY interested in some sort of Velocity (or Velocity/Heat) compilation DVD/tape. Someone let me know if you are going to pursue this.

[Dark Age]

Paul London and Billy Kidman Vs. Tajiri and Akio

 

Like I said, it's poor quality, but whatever.

 

And I am definitely down for making the comp(s) if there is enough interest.

[bob_barron]

I don't have these matches or anything, those are just a list of what are probably good or pretty good Velocity matches

[Guest jm29195]

If anyone in the UK can do me a B Show comp from 00-05 I'd be willing to pay lots and conversely if anyone from the UK wants Raw or SD comps from 02-present I can do those to.......

[Dark Age]

Like I said, I'm down for doing this. Could take a while to get all the matches I need, but I'll do it.

[Downhome]

This sounds great, and thanks for the download Bob.

[Lord of The Curry]

That was easily the best Jindrak and/or Basham match I've seen in a while. Doug's selling of the left hook was fucking awesome.

Well that's Velocity for 2004.

[haws bah gawd]

That Basham/Jindrak match was excellent. I loved Basham working Jindrak's knee by slamming him so that his legs landed across the ring ropes. Very unique, and a great use of his environment as a weapon. I also loved the selling of the left hook. The Basham landed in a heap on the floor like he had been shot.

 

Who would've thought Jindrak could wrestle that well?

[ChrisMWaters]

Though the matches weren't too special (I think one was Undertaker/Kurrgan)...anyone remember the first "radio" Sunday Night Heat?

 

I think the video feed went out, and they continued with commentarry, IIRC.

[bob_barron]

If Dark Age or anyone is interested, I could try to make up a list of Heat matches that could be on a comp or something.

 

THE BEST OF THE MIDCARDERS!~

[tekcop]

WGTT v. London/Spanky (1/10/04)

I have this taped. It's so dissapointingly bad.

 

As for the comp thing... please, for the love of all that is holy. I've been wanting something like this for a very long time. If you're serious, I can start perusing the few Heats and Velocities I do have in search fo good things.

[EricMM]

That Spanky/London vs. Kanyon/Moore is rediculously good.

 

Le sigh. Good luck finding anything like that on TV today. But then again, I would have said that last year and the year before. Velocity is a drawbag, usually at least one good match a month, say, but who's got the time on Saturday nights?

[Spaceman Spiff]

That Spanky/London vs. Kanyon/Moore is rediculously good.

I was just amped to see Kanyon in action again. Being a good match was just icing on the cake.

[Guest ISJ981]

Regarding the comp idea, I have the majority of Velocity's run only missing the first four months. From 9/21/02 until 8/30/03 the matches are just comped onto a bunch of tapes, like the rest of WWE TV from that time. From 9/6/03 onward, I have full episodes, maybe missing a couple here and there due to recording the wrong channel or forgetting to setup the VCR, but the vast majority of them are there. The same thing applies to Heat (and Raw and Smackdown).

 

So... since I already have most of the footage, I'd be more than happy to make comps for you guys (for a small monetary donation, of course ). Let me know if you guys would like me to make these for you and if so, start those matchlists.

 

-ISJ

[bob_barron]

Well I have the big-ass matchlist up there. I've seen some, but not all.

 

If anyone wants, I can try to put together a list of Heat matches from the same time period.
