All 12 are really good, but the 3 best are vols. 6, 7 and 8. They pretty much cover all of 1996 and it's AWESOME. I really don't know which one I'd choose out of the 3 though, pretty much just what matches you prefer from each one.

You really can't go wrong with any of the 12 vols. though (although 6-12 are especially fantastic).

Sephiroph = the man. Thanks for those, Doering/Suzuki should be interesting.

Sasaki v Suwama was another match I was looking forward to this year. I have no real idea why that match stood out to me a little, but it did anyway.

And I don't know how you guys get them so quick, but all the uploads are much apreciated.

Just watched Tanahashi v Kea from the Champions Carnival. That was some awesome shit. It may be my favourite puro match from this year, just ahead of Shingo/Hulk v Doi/Yoshino. The backdrop on Tanahashi was fuckin' SICK. Definitely one of the nastiest ones I've seen in a while. For rating, I'll go ****.

Watched a couple more Jr. Heavyweight matches today:

Best of the Super Juniors Tournament match - Wild Pegasus v Shinjiro Ohtani (6/25/95)
This one's JIP to the last 5 minutes or so which is disappointing, but it's a fine 5 minutes anyway. Benoit wins this one on his way to the finals. ***

Best of the Super Juniors Tournament match - Black Tiger v Koji Kanemoto (6/25/95)
JIP again (FUCK), but we get about 10 minutes here and it's still awesome. Both these guys are capable of putting on an amazing match, and I'll bet I would have been calling this one of the best matches in New Japan for 95 had I seen the full version. Anyway, Koji's the punk, prick, pain in the ass, whatever you want to call him heel, but he may be forgetting that Tiger's a dirty sumbitch as well and it pays off for the masked Guerrero in the end. Tiger gets the win with a super brainbuster on his way to facing Dean Malenko in his next match. Koji's on his way to the hospital. ****

Best of the Super Juniors Tournament match - Black Tiger v Dean Malenko (7/7/95)
Fuck yeah, these 2 equals awesome... unless of course they show 5 minutes of the match! Like the Benoit/Ohtani match, this always had potential to be the shit, but I couldn't call it any more than good with 5 minutes of it shown. ***

Best of the Super Juniors Tournament match - Wild Pegasus v El Samurai (7/7/95)
Fuck off with the damn clipping! This was a 30 minute draw, but only 7 minutes are shown here, although this does look pretty rockin' from what's on show. As I said, both guys run the time limit, but Benoit's got Black Tiger to worry about in 6 days... Pegasus and Samurai HATE each other apparently because after the match is done they're still at each other's throat. Coupla bitches, grow up dammit! ***1/2

'Lionheart' Chris Jericho v Ultimo Dragon (from WAR) (7/7/95)​
OK so technically this isn't New Japan, but I got this on my comp and Jericho himself said this match was enough to get him noticed by ECW, so I thought I'd give it a shot. For starters, this mostly seems like both guys running through their move-set with no real psychology other than "This'll be a good for a nearfall; let's do that.", but because both guys were really familiar with the other and their style, I can accept it a little easier. This was pretty good then, but both guys would definitely have better. Once I figure out how to upload shit, I'll put this up because it seems to be pretty rare and it's a good example of Jericho's work overseas. ****

Best of the Super Juniors Tournament - Wild Pegasus v Black Tiger (7/13/95)
There are 2 reasons why this is my favourite of the BOSJ matches I've seen from 1995 - 1)it's unclipped, unedited and FULL; and 2)it's fucking AWESOME! Seriously, can these 2 have a bad match? Both guys just go all out and bring what's known as the 'good shit' for 18 minutes before Pegasus tombstones Eddie from the middle rope, sending himself straight into the BOSJ finals. Pegasus faces Ohtani in the final where he wins, getting a Jr. Heavyweight Title shot in the process, but I never got a hold of that match unfortunately. ****1/2

Koji Kanemoto & Shinjiro Ohtani v Jushin Liger & El Samurai (8/15/95)
This was clipped down to about 10 minutes, but what was shown was good. Liger and Sammy are the veteran babyfaces in this, and Kanemoto and Ohtani were really good at being the cocky heels, winning the match in the end because of it. I'd like to see a full version of this, but I doubt I missed too much anyway to be honest. ***1/2

Pretty good day for the juniors then, and tomorrow it's Pegasus' title shot (which he earned by winning the BOSJ tourney) as well as the Super J Cup 1995. That should RULE then.

Show me the match listing. WOOOOOOOOOOO!

The Best of Bryan Danielson from that site sucks, so hopefully it's not on your list.

Best of the Super Juniors Tournament match - Black Tiger v Dean Malenko (7/7/95)

Fuck yeah, these 2 equals awesome... unless of course they show 5 minutes of the match! Like the Benoit/Ohtani match, this always had potential to be the shit, but I couldn't call it any more than good with 5 minutes of it shown. ***
Five minutes? If this is the match that is also on the Dean Malenko best of it's *****. GET FULL MATCH.

I am going to get three dvd's off of the Big 10 sale and need some help I already know I am going to get FYF:Liverpool but I am going to get one more 10 dollar dvd and a newer one so I was wanting some help with picking them out and maybe some reviews of shows.

10 Dollars:
FYF:NYC
FYF:Dayton
The Battle of St. Paul

20 Dollars:
Without Remorse
Rising Above
6th Anniversary Show
Breakout
Eye of the Storm
 
#14,924 · (Edited)
So, ROH in Boston tomorrow and I was wondering if FIP's Redefined show lives up to its hype. I surely want to see Stevens/Roddy, but is the rest of the card solid?

Edit: Seahawks, I think you'd be happy with 5YF: NYC over Dayton. Battle of St. Paul isn't really noteworthy from what I can recall, Fighting Spirit is better.

And for the 20 dollar selection, I heard 6th Year Anni was tremendous from top to bottom while Eye Of the Storm is a personal fave (being the Steen mark I am). Without Remorse also sounds solid from what others are writing in about.

I watched Goto vs. Tanahashi from 11/11/07 and it was excellent. The crowd was absolutely hot for this start to finish and Goto looked like a star on the rise. Tanashashi playing the dick heel works well for him and these two told a great story. Both men took some sick bumps late in the match and Goto's selling of the knee was remarkable. This one was truly a hallmark match for the Next Generation of New Japan stars. I'll give it ****1/2, maybe a little more.
