It's old school memphis type of wrestling. If you like old school wrestling, you'll like FIP.-Mystery- said:FIP is completely different from ROH. Despite the talent they use don't expect ROH quality matches because the audience FIP is geared towards is women and children and they don't want to see tremendously long matches like in ROH. HOwever, this has an upside because in FIP you get the traditional face and heel cheers. It isn't like in ROH and other Indys where faces get booed and heel cheered. Down in FIP the faces get cheered and the heels get booed.
That's a pretty impressive orderWORLD said:Just bought GBH N2, Unified, GTGM, Vendetta, ROH, Joe/Punk II and the Best of the Briscoes.

Yea, I guess I was a little generous with the rating, the match wasn't terrible by any means, besides one little slip on the rope by Ki, but I guess i'd switch it to about *** instead.X/L/AJ said:I actually haven't seen this show but I find the Ki/Cannon rating hard to believe after the way Ian talked about it during the Q&A @ KOTDM. He said that was one of the reasons Cannon wasn't being brought back as it was quite bad and Low Ki considered it to be his worst match in a long time. He said Ki actually promises Ian that every match now will be better than his match vs Cannon. After hearing that I don't see how it could nearly be a 4 star match.
lol, strange coincidence eh? Somehow I don't think everyone could underrate it. Ian said it wasn't very good himself and Ki hated it so that should speak volumes right there. I guess I will see if I can find it to download somewhere as I didn't get that show but I am interested now.-Mystery- said:Ki/Cannon was easily ****, yes you heard me right. The match has been terribly underrated by everyone. I felt it was a perfect follow up to their meeting in the TPI finals.
Sometimes wrestlers are their worst critics (no offense to Ki). I mean for instance, Mick Foley says his best match was against Orton from Backlash 2004. In my opinion, he's taken one too many shots to the skull. Hopefully you understand what I'm trying to say. No disrespect to Ki or Ian but they should leave the match ratings to the fans.X/L/AJ said:lol, strange coincidence eh? Somehow I don't think everyone could underrate it.

I found it. Thanks for offering though.DWPunk said:I upload it by tomorrow X/L/AJ
Eh, maybe. I could see it though. I mean Cannon never really impresses me much unless he faces Hero. Plus I think Ki knows what's good. If he says it's his worst match in IWA-MS I tend to take his word for it. Plus I don't know how fans can be more right than wrestlers. Just a different opinion is all. I'll watch it tonight or tomorrow though and see for myself.-Mystery- said:Sometimes wrestlers are their worst critics (no offense to Ki).

To be fair, he's set the bar pretty high as far as his matches are concerned. He's been so good that the match could easily be ranked in the bottom half of his IWA-MS matches.X/L/AJ said:Eh, maybe.

-BLKOUT vs. Pretty Unreals = **3/4 - Too many botches on Sabian's part, really killed the pace and flow to the match.DWPunk said:This is my very first review i've ever done here so let me know what you guys think about my ratings, compared to yours.
IWA-MS - February Fury 2007 - 2.23.07
Jack Thriller vs Diehard Dustin Lee - ** 1/2
BLKout (Sabian and Joker) vs Ash and Michael Elgin - *** 1/4
Brandon Thomaselli vs Billy Roc vs Devon Moore vs Vortekz - ***
Teddy Fine vs Z-Barr - Can't rate, didn't really watch it
CJ Otis vs Drake Younger (MMA Fight) - ** 3/4 way too short
Steve Corino vs Mickie Knuckles (Sherri Martel special ref) - ** 1/2 Not a whole lot of wrestling
Iron Saints vs Northstar Express (Torando Rules) - *** 1/2
Arik Cannon vs Low Ki - *** 3/4
Overall Show Rating - ***
Match Thoughts - Although there wasn't a lot of wrestling in the Corino/Knuckles deal it was great to see the late great Sherri Martel, and Corino talked on the mic for a while and said some pretty funny things to Mickie. The 2 main events were pretty good, and the undercard was pretty good overall.
