Bang;

Katyusori Shibata vs Masahiro Chono - (NJPW 07/08/04)
Katsuyori Shibata vs Hiroshi Tanahashi - (NJPW 07/15/04)
Katsuyori Shibata vs Shinsuke Nakamura - (NJPW 08/08/04)
Katsuyori Shibata vs Genichiro Tenryu - (NJPW 10/09/04)
Katsuyori Shibata vs Toshiaki Kawada - (NJPW 11/03/04)
Katsuyori Shibata vs Jun Akiyama - (W-1 04/08/05)
Katsuyori Shibata vs Hiroshi Tanahashi - (NJPW 01/04/06)
Katsuyori Shibata vs Katsuhiko Nakajima - (BML 04/19/06)
Katsuyori Shibata vs Fujita 'Jr' Hayato - (M-Pro 12/17/06)
Katsuyori Shibata vs Hirooki Goto - (NJPW 05/03/13)
Katsuyori Shibata vs Hirooki Goto - (NJPW 06/22/13)
Katsuyori Shibata vs Hirooki Goto - (NJPW 07/20/13)
Katsuyori Shibata vs Tomohiro Ishii - (NJPW 08/04/13)
Katsuyori Shibata vs Hirooki Goto - (NJPW 01/04/14)

I'd absolutely recommend the Goto vs Shibata series - also, Ishii vs Shibata was many people's match of the year. As for the older ones, you really can't go wrong with the Tenryu, Kawada and Akiyama matches. Brutal stuff.

You always deliver Bootaay. Weekend saved!

In today's Smackdown, they apparently had time to fake pops for the entire show (consistently using "oooh" instead of "woo" as the reaction for knife-edge chops) but they did not remove the part in the first match where they accidentally cut to the wrong cameras three times and you hear production people talking about someone's headset not working.

Great effort.

 

[British Monsoon]

Wow, anyone planning to go to WrestleCon at Mania Weekend? Because the first match has been signed;

Kevin Steen vs Masato Tanaka

 

[Lambda Pie]

Awesome, awesome - thanks man, I'll add this to the list.

make sure to gif the sweet ass single leg boston crab counter Volk does at around 8:11 in the video.

Hmmm.....

February Wrasslin' |OT| The Network Era begins, all your content are belong to us

 

[DMczaf]

February Wrasslin' |OT| Seems 2 me that some C level posters in a B level posters era have bought into their own hype

 

[jordan0386]

Vince is on first. But before this decade ends the NBA and NFL will offer every game recorded for $39/month

 

[Man God]

They just need to get Eve back to form a stable of "we got really, really good right before we left last time" stable. Goldust can join after he turns on Cody.

Februarys Wrasslins |OTS| Prethanks in Advance

You knew cable companies would be pissed when they are losing out on 30 million dollars a year. What did you expect? Most cable companies will probably drop the ppvs. They've killed their own ppv business with this. They better hope this network works for them. By the way Vince is meeting with talent before Raw to discuss how this affects their ppv bonuses.

Bobo...We've had enough of your crying.

 

[Johnny Ryall]

If all the PPV's will be broadcasted by WWE Network... Are they still be called "Pay-Per-Views"?
Because technically, we are not paying for watching a PPV, we are subscribed to a total package of content.

What else would you call it (no sarcasm)? Month end specials?

 

[Man God]

Oh shit I didn't even think about the PPV pay structure when it comes to the talent.

 

[SoulPlaya]

Bobo...We've had enough of your crying.

Seriously. Bobo, I'm usually all for shitting on the WWE, but you can be more out of touch than they are. The WWE network as is has far more appeal than a traditional network, which would have likely died in a few years. This still could, but it's far better for the fans, and has a better chance of appealing to modern day tastes.

Think of how much Kane there is going to be even on day one. He's in almost every PPV for 15 years.

Segregation today. Segregation tomorrow. Segregation forever!

I hope there's a TJ Hooker network soon, so I can pay $9.99 to watch every episode of TJ Hooker ever and all that money would go to making new episodes of TJ Hooker. The Shat has still got it.

I was sad when Harley Race lost that match

Holy shit.

 

[Rapstah]

Big E Langston's "explosiveness" is going to evolve to him being booked to John Cena 2007 no-sell everything to get a finisher off and we're all going to hate it in 2018.

 

[Aiii]

 

[strobogo]

Why is Natalya's Sharpshooter better than Sting's?

It isn't. Sting's has been pretty bad since the late 90s, but Nattie gets hers weird every single time, even if she sits back on it. She steps through and turns the wrong way.

 

[RBH]

I saw Dr. Sampson walking down the hallway of my school yesterday, dressed in a suit (which he never did while he was here previously).

No joke, it looked like he was doing the Vince McMahon strut.

 

[Man God]

Owen Hart is the one you want to look for for a decent sharpshooter. I remember Austin also doing it pretty well.

 

[jred2k]

In Your App.

Rock's Sharpshooter is the best

Even I'm positive about the WWE Network and I just show up on Monday nights to make backhand comments about RAW without actually watching it.

I can deal with this if he gets booked like a legit badass when he turns heel and brings back the 5-count gimmick from NXT.

 

[jmdajr]

Direct TV can suck it!

He won with a schoolboy? He should join the Diva's division.

 

[Aiii]

UberTag being positive about anything scares the fuck out of me.

 

[strobogo]

I'm very positive about the WWE Network. How does that make you feel?

 

[DMczaf]

I feel you're drunk. Stay home.

 

[Man God]

I feel that the New Generation reviews are coming...

 

[Aiii]

It's 720p for extra good quality giffing.

 

[jred2k]

We're going to need to create a strobogo clock displaying his various levels of love and disgust with pro wrasslin'. If he goes through enough cycles a bandanna will magically appear on his head.

 

[strobogo]

False. No alcohol in me.

I feel that the New Generation reviews are coming...

Possibly.

It's 720p for extra good quality giffing.

For sure.

Bring this back..but PLEASE...don't have MIZ host

 

[DMczaf]

Bring this back..but PLEASE...don't have MIZ host

Bring back the Macho Man character, played by the Miz?

Yes!

 

[Man God]

The power of the network is amazing. New Generation review requests went from NO! FLAT NO!/dissapointed gifs to Possibly in a few days.

 

[krae_man]

Bring this back..but PLEASE...don't have MIZ host

Yes Hello this is dead guy.








Too Soon?

 

[British Monsoon]

My favourite part of the strobogo cycle is when he breaks down and watches some CZW or XPW.

I don't think you've reviewed an IWA-MS show yet, stro - how about one of the King of the Deathmatches? You'd like '05. That's the one where some 'tard got cut up so bad in the first round the hospital he was rushed to called the police to get it shut down.

 

[SoulPlaya]

The only way they could screw up the network is if they make the same mistake that they made with On Demand. Add content too slowly. On Demand would get like one PPV a month. Only PPVs of WCW ECW and WWE will be available immediately, and I'm not sure how many RAWs or SD's. They have to add things quickly.

 

[DMczaf]

Possibly.

The WORST thing about On-Demand was they would never put up PPVs that were timed with the Raw/Nitros they put up.

It was always such an odd oversight to me.

Also need to bring back Legends of Wrestling roundtables.

I thought when Austin came out, he was gonna announce something along those lines since he hosts his podcast

 

[Man God]

An Austin talk show would be incredible.
