Re: Official Indy DVD Help Thread
My balls dropped when I first saw Misawa throw an elbow.
No joke.

Re: Official Indy DVD Help Thread
Hey indy trolls, I've heard this dvd is worth buying simply for the shoot interview.
http://www.smartmarkvideo.com/produc...3&cat=5&page=1
What do you guys think? Worth it? I've seen most of the IWA: MS matches and a couple Chikara ones. I'll probably wait till a good sale.

After seeing Glazer's top 50 puro guys and noitced how little Hashimoto I had seen I got ahold of two Best of Hashimoto DVDs, this is the first one. Picture quality was spot on so that always helps, seems its taken from a Samurai TV broadcast back in 2005.
The crowd always seemed really into Hashimoto so it was great to see matches thet were from his prime, for me Mutoh v Hashimoto took far too long to get going and while good still some what of a dissapointment. Watching Hashimoto kick the crap out of anyone is easily worth the time his moves suited him real well and can see why fans liked him so. But he did more than just kick, wrestled soundly on the ground and steemed to be able to pick his moments perfectly.
Best match for me was him against Tenryu with both beating on each other endlessly and Tenryu even using Hashimoto's own offence against him. Tenryu's spinning heel kick was crazy! A lot of stiff strikes, and power moves while trying their best to avoid each others big moves. Uber hot crowd and with each near fall just got louder and louder, also hearing the commentator yell Yahoooo! at the end was priceless.
Seems Hashimoto always put a lot and took alot in his matches as with 3 of them here he ended up with a bloody mouth and nose. Anyway looking forward to watching the second DVD and I easily suggest seeing Tenryu v Hashimoto if you can.

You want to see crazy stiffness from Hash and Tenryu I suggest you find the match they had at the '98 G-1. Not the best match or anything but they really beat the hell out of each other and Tenryu takes one spot in particular that well you normally wouldn't see a guy his size take.
Or just find the match where he legit punched out Fujinami in 2000.
I also recommend his G-1 '91 Semi Final match with Chono, his '93 G-1 Match with Hiroshi Hase, his late '94 Title defence against Hase, or anything with Ogawa or Scott Norton.

He is awesome but not sure if I agree on the first part, that would (aside from the actual shoot guys) likely be Inoki.

Highspots has a Best Of the Death Matches Series and volume two is all CZW goodness including three cage of death matches including the awesome BLK OUt vs. Team Ca$h Cage Of Death and the three way Zandig, Nick Gage, and Necro tournament of death finals that is the best American death match I have ever seen.

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.
MOTY-KENTA vs. Katsuhiko Nakajima ****1/2 (Kensuke Office)

Re: Official Indy DVD Help Thread
I nominate Ownage for most improved WWE Section Poster in this years Wrestling Observer Newsletter Awards (that's right, WF gets in on Meltzer's shit). Reason - he branched the fuck out  .
****1/2 for that Kenta/Dragon match for me. Awesome stuff.
I've got their first at ****1/2 as well, but gave their 3rd the full *****. Fuck. Ing. Love it.
