Re: Official Indy DVD Help Thread
I just watched Quackenbush Vs Castagnoli Vs Hero Vs McGuinness and I give it ***1/2.
I didn't enjoy this match at all mostly because of McGuinness...now I heard about the whole lariat thing and since I haven't watched a recent ROH dvd. Didn't know what was so bad about it....now I do. Oh my god, it's just ridiculous he's slowly turning into Whitmer who uses the Wrist-Clutch Exploder as his finisher, but yet he does an Exploder so what the hell is the freakin difference? You clutch the damn wrist? WTF? I mean damn, McGuinness used to be one of the best pure wrestlers in ROH, but I mean now he uses the lariat, "Jawbreaker" lariat, short-arm lariat. I mean how many lariats do you need to use in a match? It'd be alright if he just used the "Jawbreaker" lariat.

He was in a 4CS, not really meant to be a slow paced, pure match. And he was in a matcn with Quack, CC, and Hero. Going into it, it wasnt really expected for Nigel to go "pure". So since he really inst a fast paced wrestler, he uses the lariat often. Which is one of the few moves in his repetoir that isnt mat based. But in other matches, to some it can get annoying at times. I dont find it the case though

I know it's a 4CS and that it's not suppose to be a slow paced match, but he could of cut down on the lariats. I mean it's great when he just hits it from out of nowhere. I love McGuinness he's one of my favorite wrestlers I just think he needs to tone down on the lariats or at least just use the jawbreak lariat.

Re: Official Indy DVD Help Thread
PMG Clash of Legends (Memphis, TN)
Hulk Hogan vs. Paul "The Great" Wright- *****
I didn't see the rest but I recommend it based on this match. Pretty "Great" overall.

Don't expect a review soon. I still got PWG and Chikara to watch. I hope to get around to watching it next week but hopefully sooner.
