I'm gonna give you the same match I gave Pete.

 

Sawa, Ishikawa& Otsuka vs. Super Tiger 2, Usuda & Ikeda Battlarts 7/26/2008

 

http://www.dailymoti...m/video/x60ml9p

 

It's elimination style and goes 40 minutes but never drags. Also, the best example I have ever seen of using a man advantage to it's fullest.

 

Check. And in return.

 

 

Buddy Rose and Rip Rogers vs babyfaces Adrian Adonis and Ron Starr. Video is in three parts.

Throw me a recommendation, brothers

F.I.S.T vs. The Batiri

 

 

 

This was fun, always worth seeing Gargano and Chuck Taylor. I liked the 6 man comedy spot and the crowd was hot for the entire match. Short and sweet, a fun midcard.

 

Around the same time, Chuck Taylor was also doing IWA Mid South shows, and in 2009 there was a Jimmy Jacobs vs BJ Whitmer that at the time made my #1 match of the year. After all this time I don't know if it holds up, so I'm going to rewatch it as well. If you think 30 minutes is a bit too much, say and I'll give you another thing to watch, but I really hope someone checks this match.

SPS had me watch

 

Vader vs Ricky Steamboat (29/05/1993 WCW)

http://prowrestlingonly.com/index.php?/topic/41327-vader-vs-ricky-steamboat-29051993-wcw/

 

Cool find and a pretty nice TV iteration of a title match.

Matt D had me watch two Pat Roach/Skull Murphy matches this week.

 

Admittedly, I was rather bored by the first match. It felt like a 80s MSG house show performance in its comical nature. The second, though, had all the bells and whistles that I love of British wrestling. More people need to jump on it ASAP!

FACELOOCK~!!

Misawa is my favorite wrestler ever and while watching wrestling be it modern stuff from all japan, noah, bjw, DG or maybe some WWE. I could be looking back at some 80s wwf or Hashimoto or ocasional lucha or whatever, but every-so-often I find myself watching a Misawa match again and just marveling about how much better he is then pretty much everyone other than Kawada and Jumbo. This match was one such occasion I loved this.

 

In reply I shall be giving you a classic Jr tag match from the start of the NJPW vs NOAH jrs feud of 2002-2004 in which kikuchi is the biggest babyface in the world

I liked this tag a lot. I am familiar with all 4 guys and it was cool to see where they were as workers in June of 1979. Rip Rogers had some fun comments on all of the videos too. Review is below. Thanks for the match MattD. :)

@ Matt D

 

El Faraon vs El Satanico (Arena Mexico, 6/30/1989) - mano a mano

 

 

Hope you enjoy!

 

Hadn't seen this one before. I enjoyed it. Faraon's a guy I have less of a sense of than, let's say, Talisman, but he was more than willing to meet Satanico halfway here. Good, heated, stuff.

Everyone should check out the BattlArts match that DaWho had me watch, too. That's a hell of a ting.

Ok, we reshuffle the deck tomorrow. I heard from JoeG last night so I'll resync with him and pull us out of the pool.

 

Taking stock, Migs is going to take a week off (I assume), oldbirds wants to get in on this (I also assume).

 

Anyone else that's taken time off want to jump back on? Anyone need a break. Let me know.

 

I'm also going to try to reshuffle until Nintendo Logic has a new match up, just to keep things fresh.
