My god Dax and Will was a vintage TV match. Absolutely flawless execution, heat and back and forth. Dax continually gets his deserved respect, but people are still seriously going to tell me Ospreay isn’t as good as there is? Please.

NJPW:
They may switch the KOPW trophy to a KOPW belt.
Out of the box suggestion; how about destroying it and pretending this shit never happened?

You have to applaud TK for letting Mox hit the drain valve on his forehead in front of all those executives. What you see is what you're gonna get, people!
To be fair I don’t think the blood was planned although probably inevitable. Mox’s stitches opened up and as soon as he realised he just said fuck it, throw me into the ring steps.

In terms of what he does and how he works, Punk’s perfect opponent is Tanahashi. Those two will kill it.

‘Look, we’ve only got ten so let’s just cut out all the basics and drop each other on our heads ok?’
Entertaining? Sure. Any good? Meh. On the upside the truncation meant it was probably less dangerous than my past experiences of watching Brooks nearly cripple himself or his opponent.

Moxley sitting on the apron and trying to push open the ramp with his heels like he's Captain America or The Hulk was definitely a work.
For sure. No point making it into something and then blowing it straight off. Sell it all the way to the back, what a pro!

That Bryan thing doesn't seem like a work to me
Getting stuck was legit. Once he realised he got Bryce to call the shots and make something of it.

How can you love Bryan Danielson any more? When he does things like this. Just brilliant.

Meanwhile, El Lindaman...
I love Lindaman but that jump start tope is paralysis waiting to happen. The clearance is marginal at best

I have to catch up on a couple of matches but this was a damned great show. I really loved Dash and Michiko working headlocks and kicking the piss out of each other. Top three matches were all great but for the love of Shibata, tone down on the headbutts. Shingo v Kawakami will do just nicely, thanks for asking. I’d say it but DEAN will sue.. take it away squire…

Absolutely. Nagata’s 2007 was better than many guys careers. He remains one of my top workers of all time. Everyone should get hold of the IWGP title blu ray box set volume that covers 2007. Especially given it includes the complete Nagata v Tanahashi rematch from October that was on my most wanted list for years. The Tana/Nagata matches from 2007 are damn near perfect pro-wrestling.

You have faith in any of humanity? Wow.
Some, but these days not bloody much

Two days countdown to hossfest, aka GLEAT @korakuen. If this show isn’t balls out great I’ll lose all faith in what’s left of humanity!

I would like to formally request the return of cheering in time for May 18 because the Korakuen GLEAT show is stackkkked.

Well you should probably start with the best.
Anyone know the source for this version as I’m still a physical media person. I’d never actually seen this version, the one I have from Barnett years ago is dark and washed out. Thanks!

IS there any extant footage of Makabe's Apache run? ISTR that was some wildly bloody violence.
There are several shows from 2006-2008 that aired on samurai tv

I’m not backtracking to see if it’s been mentioned, but I’m still mighty fond of Yuji Nagata vs. Togi Makabe from a red hot korakuen, July 6, 2007. One goes method to perfectly acceptable results. The other decides on freestyle with an assist and hits the bloody jackpot. A GREAT brawl

Well, now that I think about it, the group was originally labeled by Hogan as the "New World Organization" on that fateful night, only later was that promo rubbed to say "Order", so it is different.
Close. He called it the new world order right off the bat but flubbed it later in the promo and called it the new world organisation

Kento v Nomura, sold!

Vintage old school main event. Murdoch spending half an hour and half his wrist tape getting ready to blade was night and day with Punk’s recent efforts however!

My Birthday was both similar and different, the former spent with my Mum, Dad, and Laura, my Little Sister as I always do. The differences: The Batman at the cinema (really enjoyed it), my best friend called Adam who is like a Brother to me coming up where I live, Orion our new dog and AEW Revolution 2022 delivering as it did. All firsts. After The Batman, we went to my favourite place to eat called Pizza Pieces. A piece of cheesecake on the house with a lit candle on getting sung Happy Birthday which I didn't expect, lovely of them doing that. I want to give thanks to the posters here who wished me Happy Returns. It means a lot xxx.
Happy birthday Champ. We all need days like that, as trivial as they may appear to some. They go a long way in this day and age to help our mental health and well being. If I get a new vinyl, some sushi, brewed in Japan beer and a sniff of TV time for wrasslin’, I’m a happy man. Ultimately that’s why AEW has been so important; it’s made us happy.

These interviews that Garret and Dave do are absolutely top notch. Bryan is really engaging and interesting. They cover a bunch of topics and go off on numerous thought provoking tangents. It’s a very enlightening and entertaining chat that you should make time for.

Bryan just being the most pro-wrestling pro-wrestler there is.

Perfect go-home show top to tail.
The best thing about AEW is you know what you want them to do, and goddamit, they do it. It’s like everything we have been deprived of in US pro-wrestling for nearly 30 years.
Can’t think of a classic pro-wrestling angle done as well as Punk and MJF in years. Everything Punk does is a masterclass and that includes gigging before the ring shot.
