[2022 Puroresu General Discussion]

Is there anyway to watch the whole Taka 30th anniversary show back from September? Will the TAKATaichiMania stay on NJPW World the whole time? I want to try and check these shows out when I get some free time.

[2022 Puroresu General Discussion]

I think that is the one I'm thinking off. Thanks!

Jody Fleisch & Curry Man & Jinsei Shinzaki vs TAKA Michinoku & Dick Togo & Ikuto Hidaka 03-21-2003?

I think that is the one I'm thinking off. Thanks!

[2022 Puroresu General Discussion]

I don't know which board to post this on, but I'm going to do it here. Move it if you need to.

I'm looking for a 6-man tag match from the early to mid-2000s that an IG puroresu page talked about (can't remember which one). It was in either M-Pro or Zero-1. I know one of the participants was Jody Fleisch because the IG poster talked about how he hit a perfect 720 DDT. The match may have involved Dick Togo, Ikuto Hidaka, and maybe Curry Man. Does any of that ring a bell for anybody? I was able to find it on YouTube a couple of years ago, but couldn't find it in my history.

Just randomly stumbled into Kyushu Pro on ‘the tube’. Stayed for a sprightly jr tag and nice hoss 3 way and some quality production. I like, I come again Kyushu Pro.

Kyushi Pro is awesome!  Kodai Nozaki is the best secret hoss in Japan.

I just watched the first two episodes of Monday Night Vai! It is a fun promotion to watch. I'll have to go through their YouTube page to check out some of their other matches.

Since the RWTL and the D King Grand Prix ended, did anybody watch anything from them? Was a anything work checking out from both of them?

2AW

The Andrew Kingdom reorganized and are now the THE RULE, they are Andrew King Takuma, Shigehiro Irie, Ayato Yoshida, Taylor Adams and Naka Shuma. Shigehiro Irie won the 2AW OW title.

Is there any place online to watch 2AW? I see the results on purolove and the shows look interesting to me. 

Also I've subbed to GLEAT's YouTube channel. What shows are worth checking out?

[Book Recommendations]

This is probably the most "known" recent one but I thought "The Sleepwalkers: How Europe Went to War in 1914" by Christopher Clark was a good dive into the conditions that lead to the start of World War 1.

I tried to read The Sleepwalkers a long time ago and couldn't get into it. I thought it was really dense and my knowledge of those alliances from way back is very spotty. So I ended up trying to wiki all those players and alliances and that took away from reading the book. Bad thing is I finally got rid of it.

I have read every history book out there, but I've read quite a few so any questions you have in that area I can answer. . . .

I like reading books on the history of certain countries or regions like Central Europe, Eastern Europe, The Balkans, etc. Any good books on the lead up to World War I, the fall of the Ottoman Empire, or on how the Middle East borders got changed after WWI?

[Book Recommendations]

Thanks for creating this. I like the idea of people recommending actual books. I was thinking more along the lines of if I wanted to get into a certain genre, what would be a good book to read or if I wanted a history book on certain countries what are some good reads for that. I like I said I do like the idea of people recommending certain books that they enjoy and people should go read. 

[What are you reading in 2021]

I just finished Bloody Rose by Nicholas Eames. It was my first time reading fantasy and enjoyed both of his books. I'm currently reading a book called The Sport is Steroids by Jim Rutter. 

Question, do we have a thread where we can ask for book recommendations?

[Joshi Puroresu Discussion Thread]

I'm going to assume this is the thread to put this in. I've been trying to get into Joshi for a while now, but been having a hard time at what to watch. I was wondering is there any YouTube or DailyMotion channels that have older matches, like from the early 80s (or late 70s) through the 2000s? 

[Puroresu General Discussion for 2020]

On the BJW streaming service how far back do they go with their shows? I've been thinking about subscribing to it.

Dynamic A or Adam is still around, look for him on facebook if you know his full name. He's a history professor.

I don't remember his last name. The only time I saw it is when I got the tape from him in the mail. Good to know he is a history professor.

I want to find my Dynamic A Jumbo/Misawa VHS and upload it. I think it may have been an 8 hour recording.

 

One of my favorite wrestling tapes that I had. If I remember right he made two tapes and never got around to doing the 3rd because of being busy with life and stuff. I've wonder what has happen  to Dynamic A, I assume he has disappeared like all the other older members.
