Re: Official Indy DVD Help Thread
Oh yes, I've seen the Hansen/Brody vs Funks tag...one of my favorite tag matches of all time. Insanely hot crowd, Brody/Hansen are monsters, the Funks are bumping everywhere and swinging wildly....God, I love that match!!

Re: Official Indy DVD Help Thread
I must agree with that. PWG Sells Out is amazing. I am working my way through it and there is so much greatness and other goodness like ****+ matches!
My one problem is on the commentary. I like funny commentary, hence why CM Puink is the best color man ever. My problem is that the color was recorded poorly in a little room that echos and sounds terrible. Te other problem with that is that when the commentary is turned on not only is the match volume turned down and no longer synced properly. Most pry wouldn't notice the syncing, but I am a video editing nerd (Final Cut Pro FTW) and thus I do. Luckily they did address this by having the ability to turn off commentary, so it's all good.
Probably they best wrestling purchase I have ever made, save buying ROH tickets back when I had never heard of anyone on the roster, and thus discovering indy wrestling. Ya, this DVD is that good.

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.

Re: Official Indy DVD Help Thread
I pretty much raided my local FYE and brought 3/4s of ROH's retail DVDs and Era of Honor Begins.
All for 35 bucks.

Fuck ROH. Those 35 bucks could of been wasted on 9 hours of wrestling that you won't get in a ROH purchase! BUY IT NOW!

Watts don't waste your summer on Chikara, there has to be some other matches in the world you haven't watched.

Re: Official Indy DVD Help Thread
The commentary is both serious and funny wrapped in on little odd package. Examples;
"Kevin Steen is back...like a god...with a crutch...and a baby." This randomness was in the middle of a hardcore match and I am like WTF?
"I think Samoa Joe is like a shark. You know why? Because likes to eat babies. And crabs." I loled at that one. It was in the middle of a great technical contest and then Disco Machine just went and said it. I have been watching matches the first time w/o commentary and the second time with that way it doesn't distract from the match when I am trying to concentrate and enjoy the wrestling aspect of it. Which leads into...
Maxx Hero's PWG: Sells Out DVD Review-Disc One
Samoa Joe vs. Bryan Danielson-This match had a lot to live up to considering those involved and it did not disappoint. These guys hit hard and did a lot of stuff that they didn‘t do in the ROH encounters. Tons of new counters and modified versions of moves, innovation and other good stuff. The crowd was right with them and they told a good story. This one match was worth the $15, especially if you are a fan of Danielson or Joe. I solid 30 minute match, even though I disliked the ending…but hey, storylines are storylines. I say ****½.
Super Dragon vs. CM Punk-I couldn’t get into this match. Punk was up to his usual shenanigans and Dragon was a dick face…as in dickish baby face…They did some cool stuff like Dragon reversing the Devil Loc DDT in a way that was totally original or Punk running away from the stomps right into a corner curb stomp. Ok match. Better than the WWE and half of what ROH is doing these days. I give it a flat ***.
Frankie Kazarian vs. Adam Pearce-I like neither man in this match, nor do I like cage matches, so this really wasn’t the thing for me. **¼
Jack Evans vs. Christopher Daniels-When I was looking at the match lists before buying I asked myself if these two had ever faced off in ROH. To my knowledge they haven’t, which is a shame as they have great chemistry. First off, make sure you can here what these two and the fans are yelling at each other, quality stuff. They had a great story of one one-up man ship and Daniels trying to stop the break dancing fever. Lots of cool flying craziness and some other hard shots. Really cool spot was Christopher Daniels doing this thing with back breakers where he would keep switching the sides he was doing it on repeatedly in succession. Hard to explain but it was cool. Also, Chris rolls out of the way of the 630 in this one and Jack really took it hard on the mat. It was pretty sick. ****¼
Samoa Joe vs. Super Dragon-This was at a collectables show in the afternoon, so I wasn’t expecting much. Was I wrong. First off this crowd was hot! There wasn’t many of them but they were on fire. Next, this match was really stiff. They weren’t pulling the punches or kicks of head drops…It went by pretty fast, so either it was a short match or I was entertained. Joe taking the Psycho Driver was sick, and that didn’t even finish the match. It was good. ****
Samoa Joe vs. AJ Styles-I watched this only an hour ago but all I can remember was that AJ got a Styles Clash in. Pretty reminiscent of their match at ROH War Of The Wire, maybe a little worse. ***½
James Gibson vs. AJ Styles-I personally can’t stand James Gibson. Never got into the guy, but he does some good work here. This was a great technical match, catch as can. When is the last time you actually thought someone was gonna tap to a Texas Cloverleaf? When’s the last time you saw a Texas Cloverleaf? Very good match that puts Gibson’s ROH work to shame. ****
