Llakor 0 Report post Posted July 8, 2008 On January 14th, 2001 during WCW Sin, Sid Vicious loomed from the top rope and hesitated before taking a rare leap from the top rope. An instant later, he was on the mat clutching at his left leg - gruesomely fractured in two places. At the time and for years afterwards, many wrestling observers thought that Sid would never wrestle again. On June 12th, 2004, during V, the Fifth Anniversary show of the IWS (International Wrestling Syndicate), Sid Vicious shocked Montreal and the wrestling world by returning to active wrestling as Pierre Carl Ouellet’s mystery partner in a ten team tag Battle Royale. A one hour edited version of the show aired across Canada on PPV, but, except for those lucky enough to tape it, for a variety of reasons no version of that show has been available for wrestling fans… Until now! Fortune Video Editing, Smart Mark Video and the IWS have finally been able to release V as a DVD. This is the full show including Sid’s hysterical 15 minute rant which started with the crowd chanting “SID! SID! SID!” and finished with them chanting “Please Leave!” It also includes the famous match between Beef Wellington and A Bear that helped inspire the formation of Inter-Species Wrestling, as well as the full main event Old School IWS Death Match that many IWS fans consider the best hardcore match that the IWS has ever done. This is the easily the most requested “lost show” that the IWS has ever done. Watch the IWS and Sid Vicious make wrestling history! Order V today! The DVD Contains: IWS Tag Team Title Match: IWS Champions Syndicat de Lutte Internet (Damian & Viking) vs. The New Breed (D.J. Sick & Hellstorm) Number One Contender’s Match: “Mr. Wrestling” Kevin Steen vs. EXesS 69 Man vs. Beast: Beef Wellington vs. A Bear IWS Title Match: IWS Champion Pierre Carl Ouellet vs. El Generico Tag Team Gauntlet Battle Royale: Match started with two teams with a new team added every ninety seconds. Double elimination rules, so if one partner was thrown over the top to the floor, the remaining partner could still win the match. The Ten Teams: The Kid Kamikaze Experience The Flying Hurricanes (Takao and Kenny the Bastard) 2.0 (Jagged and Shane Matthews) Masked Assassins (Pipe and Wrench) The Mob (Dan Paysan and Tomassino) T-Unit (Big Larry and Dolla Bill) Los Latinos (Latino Kid and Latino Mysterio) Syndicat de Lutte Internet (Fred la Merveille and Mark le Grizzly) Fan Favourites (Crazy Crusher and Motivator of Madness) And finally and famously… The New Shit (Pierre Carl Ouellet and Sid Vicious) IWS Old School Death Match: The Arsenal and The Evil Ninja vs. The Green Phantom and Sexxxy Eddy The DVD features one IWS commentary track and three fan commentary tracks including Llakor (yours truly) Steve Rockamaniak of MainEventRadio.com Big Joe of CZWFans.com (self described “F-list internet celebrity”) Kevin Marshall of the Living Under Marshall podcast & Kevin MarshallOnline.com And Daryl “BrewGuy” Brewer of the-w.com and InThisVeryRing.com To mark the occasion of the release of V on DVD, IWS is offering a DVD & Ticket special.

Jebus 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2008 Finally! Hey Llakor, any word on if the other 2004 "lost shows" will be released as well. That was my favorite year for the IWS. Went to every event, every month and I'd like to have all the shows on DVD, if possible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
