I'll dig up my WCW PPV discs and we'll be in business later.
Now that is what I'm talking about. How far back are you going? Do you have WCW Saturday Night, the Main Event or Pro Wrestler Illustrated?

I've really been looking forward to this show. it will be interesting to see Jigsaw in Japan. I've been trying to get into Japanese wrestling more, but nothing has ever clicked enough to make me want to keep up with the scene. Hopefully Osaka will keep me around.

BillRiccio where is your avatar from? I recalled hearing about an UMB promo he does in front of a fireplace, but I assumed I made it up in my mind because I can't find anything on Google and it sounds too awesome to be true

I have all WCW/NWA PPVs since 83 to when it died, and all Nitros ever. Missing some gaps in my Thunder collection and have nearly no WCW Saturday Nights, sadly.
This is phenomenal sunflower! I wouldn't mind watching those old Clash of the Champions!

Yeah, there's some clear similarities between Osaka and CHIKARA, what with the lucha/juniors inspired action, masked characters and good mix of humour, so hopefully it'll appeal more to you. Did you see the Harada/Kotoge vs The Colony tag match from a few months back? Was a pretty good match and good to see Green Ant & Fire Ant in Japan, well worth hunting down if you haven't seen it.

If it's successful for them, perhaps Gabe will be able to hold more than 3 shows a year, as 2011 was really disappointing in terms of the growth they should have made.

Ah nice, I'll pick this up fo sho. Would almost prefer it if he did it all in character though

I agree with vferrel, even though I wasn't into WCW those things were the shit~!

I've heard of the similarities plus all the talent that goes back and forth between the promotions is what really peaked my interest. I think the language barrier is a big issue for me if I can't understand commentators or interviews I feel like I'm missing alot of the show. I'm going to have to hunt down that tag match I forgot all about it until you brought it up.

They should do a separate dvd of him doing a sit down in character where he explains plans for world domination.
This is one of my favorite CHIKARA moments enjoy the awesomeness provided byUltraMantis Black and Hallowicked, with a special guest appearence from Eddie Kingston. Intro by Claudio Castagnoli.
CHIKARA: Cribs
And if Ultramantis Black wasn't awesome enough he's in a pretty sweet hardcore band that plays basement shows.

Hey WrassleGAF, watch this match;
Suwama vs Daisuke Sekimoto - (AJPW 01/02/12)
The first really great match I've seen so far 2012. Suwama, the ace of All Japan, goes up against Big Japan & ZERO1 invader Daisuke Sekimoto. While Suwama is certainly strong and has the clear height advantage, Sekimoto is known for his toughness and crazy-strength, which he certainly shows here as both guys beat the crap out of each other for 20 minutes, each struggling to overcome the other and hit their power-moves. Just an awesome strong-man match from two of the best heavyweights in Japan.
The language barrier can be a real pain sometimes, especially in Kikutaro/Kamen matches where they're getting big laughs from jawing with the crowd and arguing with the referee, really makes me wish I new Japanese. Let me know if you have any trouble finding the match, I've got a link but it's only for the full show (the 09/23/11 event).

Yeah I wish someone would do subs on Puro shows like they do for Naruto, One Piece, et cetera.
Man, I keep getting disconnected from IRC using that link and even with mIRC. :|

That's not dead, it's just Japan. Polite applause, a few people randomly shouting things and the occasional chant.

I MUST OWN THIS GAME.
Yeah, I am happy with the change.
I like Roode but I still think he needed a longer singles run before getting the title.

I genuinely wonder if that commercial has been effective on a single person ever.

I kind of prefer their old major sponsor:
MONSTER BALLADS!!!
MONSTER BALLADS!!!
But can he change a tire?
I MUST OWN THIS GAME.
What in the world???
He is so horrible as a performer too. I appreciate the team only because of the complete rip of the HBK/Diesel pose.
Then again I don't think of Matt Morgan either.
Yeah, all Raw has done lately is make me hate Zack Ryder. Even as someone who goes to school in long island i hate his tool face.
it's time
Everytime I see his face, I see a person in the facepaint...it scares me.
I wasn't really paying attention to tonight's match but Morgan is the worse of the two. Crimson sold the Genesis match with Magnus and Samoa Joe extremely well. He did a great job putting them over.

man, All-Stars is fun as hell. Was playing a tag team match with my buddy, we're getting our asses whooped...no health left, susceptible to KO...and right when my pal (Triple H) is about to get hit with the finisher (by Jericho), I (Stone Cold) get the pin (on Undertaker).
Pulled victory from the jaws of defeat. what a rush.

hahahahaahahahaha i love it
I knew about the head, just don't remember people mentioning the body.
Must have missed that...
Two young kids in love!
Great match. Thanks for the link, Bootaaay.
Something about Japanese refs irks me. I feel like they do too much. I know that's a random criticism, but it's just something I've observed from my very limited experience watching them.

Can we talk about what Christy Hemme is wearing tonight? Jesus fuck
inb4 DMeisterJ disses her
jobber
Would let Tony Parker sleep with his wife
she's totally a plant..but one of the better looking plants
what physically fit young lady in their 20s would be hanging out at the impact arena wearing a tna shirt?
I wont diss her, I will say that she is flanked by much cuter females on either side of her, but she herself isn't inherently ugly. But she's also not very cute at all.
