Re: Official Indy DVD Help Thread
Bryan Danielson vs. Tyler Black
Breakout -- ****
Southern Navigation -- ***3/4
Tyler was dominated more than I had hoped in the second match.

I perceived it as Danielson having to change his entire moveset because Tyler had an answer for everything (usually) thrown at him.

Re: Official Indy DVD Help Thread
okayyyy help needed!!
ive been living away in thailand for the past 9 months and ive kinda lost touch with ROH through no fault of my own. The last shows i bought (and actually went too) were the two liverpool shows. (i know ive missed A HELL of a lot). I recently got back from bangkok after watchin nothing but WWE over there, as they play it 24/7 in some bars which was pretty cool. Upon gettin back, ive started to ge through alot of ROH again. Manhattan Mayhem, Death Before Dishonor 4, Dragongate Challenge, Supercard of Honor etc. And I was basically wondering, sinse liverpool, what are the ten best DVDs/Shows to download. I recently watched the PPV show with Generico/Steen vs Briscoes and I see that the product is still top-notch  .
So what are the must haves from the last 18 months???

Re: Official Indy DVD Help Thread
PWG: Sells Out - The Best Of Pro Wrestling Guerrilla Vol.1
Disc One
The Musical - April 17, 2004
1. "American Dragon" Bryan Danielson vs. Samoa Joe
****1/2
(Amazing stuff. Shame about the end)
The Reason For The Season - July 10, 2004
Pro Wrestling Guerrilla World Championship Steel Cage Match
2. "Scrap Iron" Adam Pearce vs. "The Future" Frankie Kazarian
***1/2
(Couldn't get into this)
The Reason For The Season - July 10, 2004
3. CM Punk vs. Super Dragon
****
Free Admission (Just Kidding!) - November 13, 2004
4. "The Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels vs. Jack Evans
****
All Nude Revue - February 12, 2005
5. Samoa Joe vs. Super Dragon
****1/4
All Star Weekend Night 1 - April 1, 2005
6. AJ Styles vs Samoa Joe
****1/4
Guitarmageddon - June 11, 2005
7. AJ Styles vs. James Gibson
****
Overall: Nearly everything is **** on this first disc. There's only Kaz/Pearce that isn't great imo but it's still good. Danielson/Joe is amazing stuff but the finish is such a shame. I honestly could have watched them go at it for an hour. It's probably the lesser of the 3 discs but great stuff throughout all the same.
Disc 2
2nd Anniversary Weekend Night 1 - July 9, 2005
Pro Wrestling Guerrilla World Tag Team Title Match - Titles vs. Masks
8. Arrogance ("Photogenic" Chris Bosh & Scott Lost) vs. Aerial Xpress (Quicksilver & Scorpio Sky)
****1/2
(Never expected it too be this good)
2005 Battle of Los Angeles Night 2 - September 4, 2005
9. El Generico, Jack Evans, Frankie Kazarian, & Super Dragon vs. Scott Lost, Ricky Reyes, Davey Richards, & Joey Ryan
****
Astonishing X-Mas - December 18, 2005
Guerrilla Warfare Match
10. Super Dragon vs. "Mr. Wrestling" Kevin Steen
****1/2
Hollywood Globetrotters - March 4, 2006
Pro Wrestling Guerrilla World Tag Team Title Match
11. Super Dragon & Davey Richards vs. Jack Evans & Roderick Strong
****
Threemendous - July 16, 2006
Pro Wrestling Guerrilla World Championship Steel Cage Match
12. Joey Ryan vs. B-Boy
****1/4
2006 Battle of Los Angeles Night 3 - September 3, 2006
13. CIMA vs. El Generico
****
All Star Weekend 4 Night 2 - November 18, 2006
14. El Generico vs. "The Man That Gravity Forgot" PAC
****1/2
Overall: The first and last matches on this disc are incredible. The Title vs Mask match was the first I'd seen of all 4 wrestlers and I was blown away by all of them. Bosh & Lost are awesome heels and Aerial Express are just generally awesome. Very similar style and tag moves to MCMG. Everything ****+ for me on this disc. Awesome stuff.
Disc 3
Based on a True Story - January 13, 2007
Pro Wrestling Guerrilla World Championship Title Guerrilla Warfare Match
15. Joey Ryan vs. Human Tornado
****3/4
Holy Diver Down - February 24, 2007
16. PAC vs. Kevin Steen
****1/4
All Star Weekend 5 Night 2 - April 8, 2007
17. Kaz Hayashi vs. PAC
***3/4
DDT4 Night 1 - May 19, 2007
18. CIMA vs. Bryan Danielson
****
DDT4 Night 2 - May 20, 2007
Pro Wrestling Guerrlla World Tag Team Title Match
19. The Briscoe Brothers (Jay & Mark Briscoe) vs. PAC & Roderick Strong
****
Giant Size Annual #4 - July 29, 2007
Pro Wrestling Guerrlla World Tag Team Title Match
20. PAC & Roderick Strong vs. El Generico & Kevin Steen
****
Giant Size Annual #4 - July 29, 2007
Pro Wrestling Guerrlla World Championship Title Match
21. El Generico vs. Bryan Danielson
****1/4
Overall: Yet again, nearly all ****+ matches. Hayashi/PAC is very close to **** but like Kaz/Pearce, I couldn't really get into it. PAC totally owns this disc tbh. The fact that he's English to only adds to his awesomeness. Ryan/Tornado blew me away tbh. Unbelievable story, action, spots, everything. Nearer to ****1/2 than the full 5 though.
Overall:
The whole set is pure awesomeness. BUY IT~!
Apart from Kaz/Pearce imo everything else is ****+ deserving. Wether you're a PWG veteran or a completely new fan like me, you need to buy this set. For less than a $1 per match, the match quality and value for money is unvelievable. Just buy it and realise how EPIC it is. Particualy reccommend it to a new PWG fan like myself.
BUY THIS NOW~!

Re: Official Indy DVD Help Thread
Good review Seabs, I agree with just about most ratings. And yeah, I've never cared for Kazarian/Pearce since I saw it. Also glad that the AXP vs Arrogance match took you by surprise, excellent contest.
This DVD set owns just about every other one out there. Its that great.

Re: Official Indy DVD Help Thread
ROH: Up For Grabs
Opening Match: Chris Hero and Adam Pearce vs. Jigsaw and Ruckus
**1/4
Match #2: Nigel McGuinness and Go Shiozaki vs. Kevin Steen and El Generico
***1/2
Match #3: Jimmy Jacobs and Tyler Black vs. Delirious and Pelle Primeau
*1/2
Match #4: Roderick Strong and Davey Richards vs. Austin Aries and Bryan Danielson
***1/2
Match #5: Chris Hero and Adam Pearce vs. Kevin Steen and El Generico
*3/4
Match #6: Jimmy Jacobs and Tyler Black vs. Austin Aries and Bryan Danielson
N/R, it made sense for Aries to act the way he did and the same match was scheduled for the next night.
Match #7: Shane Hagadorn vs. Alex Payne
½*
Match #8: Claudio Castagnoli vs. Eddie Edwards
**
Match #9: Necro Butcher vs. Brent Albright vs. Erick Stevens
**3/4
Match #10: ROH World Tag Team Titles: Kevin Steen and El Generico vs. Jimmy Jacobs and Tyler Black
***1/4
Overall: There is nothing you MUST see on this show. However, there are two very good first round matches and the Steenerico/AOTF final is very intense. It's also interesting to note that Prazak and Leonard on commentary really lightened up with the stand out line being:
Leonard: "Or maybe he can see them up the river to Vince like he did with Matt Sydal."
Prazak: "WHO'S VINCE?!?!?!?!?!?!"
