WRESTLING ON THE INTERNET NOT FROM THE NOW
Curt McGirt replied to RIPPA's topic in The PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dkJiokAem8M&ab_channel=LIVE4W*ING W*ING - THE CURSE OF THE BARBED WIRE BAT This is for Tromatagon (he hasn't been around in awhile and I'm definitely misspelling the name, but he's the biggest W*ING fan. I've definitely seen his real name before but can't recall). I was reminded of it from an old DVDVR where Ray, I think, did a transcription of Jason the Terrible's broken English promo at the beginning of this, which is hilarious, along with the Japanese speech he gives later which is clearly a voiceover from somebody else. Then I started watching the rest and there is not only a Damiencito and a Cicloncito Ramirez but MR. NIEBLA in the flesh doing the best moonsault ever. I'm not done with the video but if it is as good as the start then holy shit. -
Also: I love being there to watch on the Discord. Thanks to everyone for being there; you're the best. We might be hurting right now but we have wrestling, and each other.

For some reason I thought this was gonna start at 6 o' clock or so, and came into the show right then... which would be three hours into the show. It's okay though, the last two matches were worth three hours of wrestling watching, they were so good. Okada/Omega was what I always wanted from seeing them wrestle each other. They took their standard match and slowed it way way down to emphasize the impact of everything, let it breathe, made it sing. Okada is such a great prick heel now too. And Hanger/Moxley. Wow. Every single person involved made sense and worked in the story of the match. Callis was such a goof, wailing like a goober with both arms on Hangman. As a complete opposite Claudio was brutally laying it in! It's the little things sometimes, beyond the great match at hand. Damn, that was good.

Hey, the Paul Jones Army/Boogie feud has new interest from those Youtube postings, let's do it! Will, I know you're reading this! (Personally, I say fuck that, give us all the Way of the Blade matches instead) I've always been fine about getting a whole stack of unlabeled DVRs with no packaging in the mail as long as they got the goods. Y'all wanting anything special need to put the brakes on. Just sayin. -
I never come over here anymore, but this showed up in my Facebook feed and tickled me, so here you go. The Shavers quote is the best ever.

DVD/BR Collector Thread for the Physical Media Enthusiasts
Curt McGirt replied to jaedmc's topic in MOVIES & TV
Dude, can you imagine hearing about that Bergman thing, being him. That had to feel like vindication for any wrong move he ever thought he made in his entire career, if not entire life. -
Waitaminute: So Titan was the one earning a shot at a title. Why should Nick celebrate that? I guess he was celebrating that he didn't lose? Why did Titan seem disappointed? This does not make ANY sense now.

I know the heel should want to win the match out of pride, but I'd like to see someone use the Zybszko technique of trying to avoid doing anything at all until the 10 minutes is up for that.

Given the current political climate, I'd get ahold of Z while you can. EDIT: I would partner those up with The Battle of Algiers and Harlan County, USA while you're at it https://archive.org/details/z.-1969.720p.-web-dl.-dcrg-31270111854 https://archive.org/details/TheBattleOfAlgiers1966 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uc5QldB2MRg&ab_channel=chris9l9

God, if I could only get the Schneider comps I don't have, and the All Japan set. Thinking about anything else is the path towards madness -
Nobody gonna say anything about Global Wars? Poor ROH... Anyhoo, women's tag was solid. I haven't seen Percephone before but she was good. Titan/Nick Wayne was pretty good too; Titan's mask was like this baller rainbow/Pride color mask in rhinestone and Nick was an appropriately shitty-acting rudo. The match came to the Proving Ground time limit but he still won a title match with Titan down the road due to it being technically a double win? I thought you had to WIN to gain the opportunity, so that... doesn't make sense. Nick bounded down the ramp celebrating so I guess Riccaboni and Caprice were correct. Maybe they'll correct this later or just ignore. BTW, Arena Mexico was, oddly, really dimly lit for the show. I've always dug that due to the ring focus it gives but it was real murky on the outside. Frankly, the Dorada/Bandido title match lost me after the "social dance" (TM Suwa) open. That collaborative, cooperative exhibition crap is totally phony and unappealing, put a bad taste in my mouth, and told me I only had to catch the high spots when commentary called them while I did something else in another tab. It surprised me that it didn't go last but, Blue Panther is Blue Panther, Blue Panther goes last. You really have to give credit to Moriarty for working a credible match with a 70+ year old man. It had the neat llave stuff, Moriarty selling for Panther's chops, Panther amazingly ate two topes against the barricade and then hit a plancha off the ramp which had a surprising amount of speed and impact. Him winning was a little less credible but so what. Panther even lets Shane Taylor splash him (!) before Danielson comes out with the crew to stop STP and give the Busaiku to Shane. Boy his Spanish is stilted Anyway, kinda small for such a big show, but worth a watch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nl8KX6AixjU&ab_channel=RingofHonorWrestling

I just realized that pic I posted above makes Logan want to make out with Scott instead of Jean. Somewhere, a slashfic writer is... let's say, applauding

What about Da Maniac, though? Oh yeah... scripted.
