Re: Official Indy DVD Help Thread
Despite some less traveled wrestlers and occasionally some really dull death matches the product is pretty awesome.
Mystery rarely anybody talks about IWA-MS especially on here.

I used to talk about it all the time. However, the product became absolute crap in 2007. The IWA-MS/IWA-DS feud really killed the product, IMO. Not to mention the straying away from actual wrestling and focusing more on death matches in 2007 was a pretty horrible decision as well. Finally, Ian's booking is absolute shit.

All I saw from the MS/DS feud was Axl Rotten v.s Tank and that sucked.
How was the TPI last year, though?

Re: Official Indy DVD Help Thread
I heard it was actually pretty good, haven't seen it myself though.

A good wrestling match is like a balenced diet. Basic moves are carbs, they keep you going. It may not be your favorite part, arm drags and such, but they're key to your substance. Dairy is charisma and crowd interaction, like with bones, it strengthens the match. Meat is big moves like powerbombs and finishers. They are cool, but if you just rely on them you would be unhealthy, and the matches would be unwatchable. Technical mat work is fruits and vegetables. We may not like them all, but some of it can be sweet chain wrestling. Last but not least (well maybe) is spots and random indy MoVEz~!, your sugars and fats. You can not just eat chocolate, and thus you need to do more than flips and head drops to get **** and above.

The worst since 2003, IMO. It had its gems (Hero/Kingston, Nigel/Claudio, Hero/Scorpio) but there was way too much filler talent which resulted in some poor matches which resulted in the tournament becoming very unenjoyable.
My issue with the shows is there are too many pointless matches on the card. I mean sometimes you'll have 11 matches on a show and more than half of them feature piss poor talent. It really kills the tempo of a show. If he'd cut the shows down to like 7-8 matches, you'd get a much more enjoyable product. Also, it doesn't help when most of the time there are only 2-3 matches on the card which actually have some sort of backstory behind them. Most of the time Ian books matches just for the sake of booking them.

Re: Official Indy DVD Help Thread
Thats why I rarely buy IWA masters anymore because it's very rare if I watch more than 3 or 4 matches on the card.

Re: Official Indy DVD Help Thread
As a big fan of the guest booker series, i will no doubt pick up the latest addition with Raven. Have to say though, the situation is the most unlikely yet.
