Match structure is super-minimalist as fuck, simply two strongmen trading strikes and 70s strongman holds like the full-nelson with each other to see which dude is stronger until it finally builds to the big Polish Hammer and the roof explodes off the place. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re in the midst of a big 70s Graham revival. He’s pretty tremendous. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I havent seen much of his Japan work from that era but I did a 70s WWWF watch a while back and literally every one of his MSG matches before, during, and after his title reign during that first New York stint is damn fun to watch and everything just feels "big time".

SturmCRF Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Sol Ruca is a one woman walking aircraft hanger of the settle-downs. I really hope she turns out to be good so she can be on TV forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I lived in Seoul I was dying to get into the Indy scene and history of wrestling in Korea. I was able to go to a couple of small shows in Incheon, but found it so hard to find much on the history so this is greatly appreciated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At some point in the future, I will be sharing more of what I know about this. In case you don't know, I have a thread on PWO that drives deep into the early years of NJPW. Once my laptop is fixed, I will be able to resume research and writing for the next post, which will cover Inoki's 1974 match against Kintaro Oki but will start with a bio of him. It will include the story of how he came into the territory with JWA backing in 1965 and how Jang Yeong-chol killed his career by exposing the business. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
