Now that ROH are starting to sell IWA-MS DVD's I thought I would pick up a few shows. So besides TPI 06 what are the two best shows available from ROH?
Don't get those shows in rohwrestling.com. Get those shows from smartmarkvideo.com instead but if you still to get it from there...

HURT 2007 & We're No Joke are great choices.

He's better off buying from ROH especially if they have a percentage off sale next week.
Yeah that is true. When they have a 20% sale, I hope Big Ass Christmas Bash will still be on stock.

I was about to ask how you got FS and TMWII so fast, PaiMei, then remembered you went to a live show, lucky bastard, hehe. Hopefully my order comes this Monday or Tuesday, and I can't wait for your upload...my iPOD needs that match!

Glad to see Fighting Spirit getting praise, it's my second favorite Edison show ever (right behind RoH, and right above 4YAS). Morishima/McGuinness is ridiculously stiff, Claudio/Romero pulled a great match outta nowhere, the Briscoes vs Steenerico was so emotional and the crowd was going INSANE, loudest Edison crowd I've ever heard (rivaling Manhatten Center at it's peak), surprisingly fun opener, the sub main event tag was really well worked (Evans is becoming one of the best tag wrestlers ROH has)...just tons of great stuff.

Totally agreed. Claudio/Rockyu in particular was a great surprise as its not often I'm very into Rocky. Great show, and Briscoes-Steenerico may be the best thing in ROH now (the two brawls in Boston were fucking AWESOME and as heated as anything anyone else did, SO PUMPED for front row DBDV).

Yeah, I'm becoming a huge Steen mark, after really disliking from for most of 2006 (aside from his brawl with Super Dragon at Astonishing X-Mas). He's such an asshole in the ring, it's amazing.

Oh, PaiMei, was the chant "Man The Fuck Up" really loud during Briscoes/Steenerico? If it is, I'm even more pumped to see it, since that chant was just awesome. Yes, I'm marking for a chant, THAT'S how awesome the crowd was (or seemed) during that match.
 
#8,091 ·
It wasn't like, deafening, but the camera was staring into the people chanting it (including what looked like a 4 year old kid) and it occured as the Briscoes slowly rose up so it came off awesome.

Okay, that's all I wanted to know. These two crazy guys next to me, musta been late teens or early twenties, started the chant as Jay was knocked down in front of us. I was like, "Wow, that's awesome", and the chant got pretty damn loud. Although, I ended up hating those two guys by the end of the show, because they were such doucebags during the McGuinness/Morishima match (they hate McGuinness with a passion, and shot at him that he's boring, can only do headlocks, needs to learn how to wrestle, etc). Not just heckling though, like, jumping around and really screaming at him. People around us joked around like "Nigel probably killed their mom with a lariat, because that'd be the only reason to hate a wrestler so much."

Yeah, why I'm so excited for a chant I'll never know, but whatever. Can't wait for the DVD to arrive either way.

Just to let everyone know, I'll be doing a full review of TMWII and FS, and will continue to do so with each ROH show that follows (time and money permitting, of course).

Ok so now the deal is I can order 2 Chikara shows tonight but still quite stuck on which 2 I want to order right now(seeing how I am also going to order in July as well, don't ask)

So Rey De Voladores, Anniversario?, Anniversario!, Talent Barrows; Genius Steals, Brick & Cibernetico Forever are the ones I have my eyes on.

So I know that I have heard a good group of these are really good shows but which 2 do some of you guys reccomend I get first? I was leaning towards one of the new Anniverario?/! shows and Talent Barrows and then pick up RDV/Anniversario?/! later. Sound good?

I am stuck.....

I'd say Rey De Voladores is the #1 choice here. Hero/Claudio was excellent, good main event, and the tournament matches were good as well.

I haven't seen any of the others, but from what I've heard, Aniversario? and Brick are both very good. I'm guessing you already have The Crushing Weight of Mainstream Ignorance?

No, I don't have crushing weight either, but I wanted to try something different from Chikara. I didn't list it cause I knew everyone would just rate that higher. Weird I know but I was hoping to get some answers from different shows instead.

:$ Everytime I ask it always comes back to that one, I guess no one has very many of the other shows.
