Match # 28: Dusty Rhodes/Hacksaw Duggan vs Butch Reed/Hercules Hernandez 8/19/84 This is from a Tulsa house show with StarDust in town. This is a street fight, or at least the street clothes and street fight rules were adopted. Typical character-driven grudge stuff with the booking of the time for M.S. [...]

Match # 27: The Fantastics v. The Midnight Express (8/9/84) Nice. Watching the last match I was hoping for a straight tag without Duggan/Cornette. We get an arena match-up to boot.

4.7.07 Chris Hero vs Eddie Kingston (CZW – Loser Leaves Town match) I cannot believe that I of all people am telling you to steal a match from CZW. First off, I’ve gone through my hardcore period with the original ECW and burned out on it. Second, I became more of a purist a few [...]

-5.6.06 NWA-VA Sean Denny vs Damian Wayne This match was on a best of 2006 collection I’ve had sitting around. It may be the only truly indy – indy match on the set, so I thought I’d take a look. You may remember I’d done some writing on Damian and Denny before they debuted in ROH [...]

-4.13.08 Kensuke Sasaki/Nakajima/Yamaguchi vs Kenta Kobashi/KENTA/Taniguchi: The renewal of a rivalry and a tease of a match. Mid June we get a big showdown with Kobashi continuing the comeback when he teams with KENTA to take Kensuke Sasaki and Nakajima. For now we get the six man teaser, which is clipped to ten minutes, but features [...]

We’re back, sooner than later, with another podcast about the indies. This time it’s Chikara and their Young Lion’s Cup. Brian Streleckis and John Philapavage run down the three show weekend with John’s live report and Brian’s inquiring mind. All the info you need is here so if you are a hardcore Chikara fan, or [...]

-3.5.08 Marufuji vs Kikutaro: The match is from a NOAH house show. This was a fun nine minute comedy match clipped a few times to about four minutes of extended highlights. Marufuji is pretty awesome whether he’s tagging with KENTA, being a top Jr. Heavy or heavyweight contender, or guest staring in Ring of Honor over [...]

“PWG semi-newbie” Johnny P. takes a look at the first show of the year for Pro Wrestling Guerrilla’s 2008 season. Come with us!

Everything you wanted to know about PWG, but were afraid to ask! Think DDT 4 was the fourth tourney. John wasn’t sure. Brian answers. Need to know about the first DVD release of the year? John DOES know how to help you out with that. We’ve also got current results and conversations on the promotion, [...]

Gene and John promised you little structure at the beginning. We warned you we’d go off on topics not in the mainstream of wrestling or today’s product. We were to be the “alternative programming” for the site. So what have we done? Two regimented episodes, and now a third. Even worse, not only is [...]

Chikara: YLC Night 3 6.15.08 Hellertown, PA John Philapavage Reporting I could write you a report about the youthful mistakes and judgments of the wrestlers at the three Chikara shows this past weekend. I could write about the sameness and formula of some matches. There are all kinds of ways to pick at a promotion and talents, and we [...]

The Fantastics & Duggan vs. Midnight Express & Cornette (7/20/84) I’m not doing a big write up for this. Sometimes I feel I must for a match; sometimes I enjoy it, and sometimes it just happens. But the point of this journey through the Mid-South is exploration and fun, and I just don’t think a [...]

Match # 25: Ted Dibiase vs Magnum TA 7/6/84 We have two trends on this disk, and Dibiase/TA is one of them. Third match in a month and a half that made the set from these two. Very Cool. North American Title is again on the line, but this time it’s a regular match w/o [...]

We’re back with our continuing coverage of Young Lions Cup VI. (Johnny P NOTE: Night one write up is finally all done. Check it out. Night One is here) The show opened with an angle (right in front of John) where Vin Gerard attacked Worker Ant (who was scheduled to wrestle Chip Day tonight) and injured his [...]

Johnny P is in Hellertown attending Night 1 of Chikara’s annual tournament and will be sending in results throughout the show. (Johnny P. EDIT: I’ll put my comments in Italics after every match) ROH President Cary Silkin is in the crowd. John asked him about Bryan Danielson’s situation and Silkin said something to the effect [...]

We have some NOAH house show fun for you today. Marufuji takes on the always hilarious Kikutaro, just for kicks. Then Kobashi gets stiff with Sasaki for the warm up to their yearly chopfest as Kobashi/Taniguchi/KENTA take on Nakajima/Sasaki/Yamaguchi
