Chaos Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 I'm thinking about finally picking up some PWG shows. The thing I do like about the promotion is that it's one of the more inexpensive indies to follow due to ten shows a year. I do not like their shipping cost, but that's a minor gripe. What is a good starting point at this point without spending too much to catch up? I was thinking of just either starting with the March or May show. PWG Sells Out 1,2, and 3. Each set is a triple disk collection of the best of PWG history. I don't think those comps are easy to come by anymore. I know Randy made me a comp back in like 05-06ish of PWG's early stuff on VHS. (Hey, remember the tail end of tape trading still being a thing?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is a good starting point at this point without spending too much to catch up? I was thinking of just either starting with the March or May show. If you only want to pick between those two, I'd go for the May show (Sold Our Soul for Rock n Roll). The March show was Mystery Vortex II, which is what they name their shows when shit gets all changed up due to injuries, etc, and they don't even announce a card. To me, MV2 ended up being a mixed bag and there was no intrigue in the main event because you knew they weren't putting the belt on Candice LeRae. If you want to go back a little further, last year's TEN might be a good start. Yeah, I've been recommended that for a starting point a few times. I think this is something I would want to slowly chip away at until I get caught up which may take a year or two, so I might be better starting closer and then snagging those shows along the way once I get to current releases after the pocketbook death that will be getting BOLA's 3 nights together.

cool arrow Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 I'm sure it was Sullivan's idea and Kanemura was game because, well, he's crazy. Sure, but ultimately the buck stopped with Cornette and it was his call to put it on tv. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 They did censor it. Not that that mattered to the women and children in the front row, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiji Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Sullivan tried to talk Kanemura out of it but Kanemura pleaded with him and told him it would be an honour so Sullivan obliged. I've never seen it nor do I want to see it but that's from one of the many Sullivan shoots I've seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zakk_Sabbath Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Lesnar/Cena 4 ends with Lesnar accidentally throwing Cena thru a cage and losing the title Ugh this is probably going to come true. Brock should honestly just get the absurdly long Sammartino run with the belt. If this finish does occur, he pretty much has to murder Cena in the ring after, leaving Heyman to come out every week and be like "HA now you have NO champion" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobra Commander Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Hypothetical.. if there was a clear chain of ownership for the WWE to buy and digitize master tapes of Memphis footage, how weird would it be to watch Memphis in a video quality that is better than "this footage has been through a few generations of copies" which doesn't have a constant buzz at the bottom and tracking static at the bottom of the screen.

The Nature Boy Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Hearing Kane speak out of character is weird. The comparison of the mind to a super computer was a major "WTF?" moment for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piranesi Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 It's really weird to me how nervous he was. He was speaking so fast and was doing all these weird breathing things with his body and flopping his hands around. It's strange how speaking in front of 10,000 anonymous people is completely different from speaking in front of, like 40 or 50 who are much more intimately in your space. There's like no crossover in the two that would make him somehow better at this and less nervous than anyone else. He's just suddenly like a football player giving a book report. The content was like some bizarre Cartesian treatise about how sensory perception leads to behavior from like the early 1600s. He also jumped right on the "10% of the brain" thing. IS HE NOT READING THE MOVIE OMNIBUS THREAD???? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nature Boy Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Speaking as "Kane" is probably easier than speaking as himself. As himself, his ideas are going to be picked apart, the Kane character is so outlandish that there's no real risk of people judging HIM for it.

I do a radio show for lots and lots of people every day but when I'm asked to do a high school graduation or some such event, the dynamic is TOTALLY different. The "in-character" aspect of the thing TOTALLY comes into play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
