Robert Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Nah. That was a very polarizing match. I liked it because they worked their style and it's rare to see a match like that. On the other hand the show was already going long and a lot of the crowd really wasn't having any of it early on which you'd think would have made them change things on the fly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technico Support Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Yeah, count me in with the "on the other hand" group. The prior match (Ospreay/Bailey) was really short and then this match went forever and never seemed to get out of the blocks past "we're two guys goofing off doing really light English exhibition style wrestling." It picked up in the final few minutes but, until then, it just felt aimless and tedious. It was more like the kind of time-filler comedy match you'd see before the finals than an actual semifinal bout. I was about to make a joke about how I was shocked nobody got a thumb in the butt -- then I remembered Scurll chasing Sabre and Knox with ballsweat and, later, outright grabbing Sabre's dick. I'm all for goofy matches. One of my earliest PWG experiences was BOLA 2010 where Paul London showed up in a spaceman suit, only to reveal a singlet with a water bottle stuffed down his crotch. But that was night one, round one. When you're in the match to determine who goes to the finals, I sort of expect a little bit more intensity and less "watch us do interpretive dance and effortlessly float in and out of holds."

cubbymark Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Some of the extra time that Scrull/Sabre got could have gone to Sabre/Pentagon Jr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonnyLaw Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Yeah, but he'd have to be really patient to wait until next year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spritenaut 32 Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 If Tozawa is moving to the states, I got 5 bucks he moves to Florida, if you know what I mean. He really wants to be FIP world champion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nate Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Wonder why they don't go with freeze frames before the conclusion of big moves or sequences. Or at least edit the sequence of events. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoeCristyV.1.6 Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Na, it's PWG, those moves you see are good for a 2 count. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiji Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 That's what I'm thinking but some of those HAVE to be finishes, even for P-DUB-G. Only one way to find out. I really wish they had their own subscription service or Highspots had more in their vault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
