Please delete if I am treading on anyone’s toes here (or stealing any thunder) but what reviews would you like to see the lads do?
I’ve been trying to push one through for years which is the awful Chyna and Anna Nicole Smith film “Illegal Aliens” but maybe it’s a bit depressing now all things considered
I’d love to see a review of IYH4 from Winnipeg…seems like an odd choice BUT it has a lot of interesting historical happenings people may forget. It was Goldust’s debut, shawn gives the IC belt up and it changes hands twice in one night.
I was born and raised in the peg and attended this event…red jacket 4th row on the hard cam with a green macho foam finger…you can tell what a Postmark (see what I did there) I was as HBK was handing over the belt…LOL…I also remember going to the raw tapings in Brandon the next night and inadvertently walking down a hall in the arena where there was a window to a waiting area with all the wrestlers breaking kayfabe…was pretty trippy…remember this was 1995!
I’ve been getting really invested in the Stardom promotion during the end of this past year. After watching the Mae Young Classic, I was intrigued by some of the talent and gave it a shot. It’s honestly reinvigorated my love of wrestling. Also remember hearing Wai say that he wanted to try to check out a show while he was in Japan. Would love to see Wai and John’s take on the Oedo Tai faction and some of the other both established and rookie talent currently in Stardom. For me Stardom is absolutely refreshing in it’s pretty minimalist presentation (on some shows the one camera thing is disappointing for matches). That’s my two cents, and I’m happy to have Wai and John back, this pumped up and ready to go. I’d suggest the upcoming Yoko Bito Retirement show, but anything else would work too.
I kept saying this on the LAW boards but I would love them to do a Brian Pillman retrospective. They always do a great job with their career retrospectives and this year marked the 20th anniversary of his death. I would also like them to try a bit of CHIKARA, King of Trios would be good but anything in 2010 around the BDK storyline would also be good.
They have done that match. It was the infamous review that they had to redo 3 times. But wouldn’t mind them doing it again as think having to redo it effected their views of the show.
NOAH Destiny 2005. One of the greatest wrestling shows of all time and featuring the incredible 20+ minute chop battle between Kobashi and Sasaki. Huge Dome show with a incredibly hot crowd as well.
Had the pleasure of producing English-commentary episodes of NOAH for FN with Mauro & Mouth back then and this show was probably my favourite. Mauro calling Sasaki-Kobashi was incredible. Hope those see the light of day at some point.
