By some brilliant coincidence that great man put this on his site just yesterday...it's already on my disk and now i want to get to it even more.

Awesome; now nobody's got any excuse not to watch it .

I'm not sure if it's been discussed in this thread, since I don't feel like going back and looking, but I'd like to encourage everyone to pick up atleast one of Smart Mark Video's "Best on the Indies" gimmicks. 3 Disc Set, including a shoot interview and the wrestlers best matches, for $20.

My favorites are the Chuck Taylor one, the Danny Havoc one, and the Eddie Kingston one. Fun shoots, enjoyable matches, totally worth the money.

I was thinking of picking up the Eddie K one actually. Glad to hear it's worth the bills.

The Kingston best of looks like the strongest one one paper, I was going to pick it up regardless if its great since I am such a mark for the guy. The interview would be worth the price.

So Andy, think the Brody DVD is must-buy at this point? (At least for Brody marks like you and I)

I'm about 99% sure it never happened. Williams showed up in New Japan which was prior to his All Japan debut about the time Brody got killed.

The only way it happened was in a territory somewhere in the U.S.

Yeah, I'd say so even though I'm only just going onto disc 2 at the moment. Having seen a decent amount of the other stuff on the set it just gets better. Brody/Hansen v The Funks from the RWTL '84 final is about 3 million kinds of awesome.

I actually checked to see if I could find ANY mention of this match happening anywhere and sadly it looks like it never did. There's a tasty looking Brody/Hansen/Gordy v Terry/Dory/Baba 6-man from 8/30/83 on the Brody comp though (more reason to get it, Lax).
