Re: Official Indy DVD Thread
He must book the biggest gimmick 16 man tag or something on his show. If we get that show to actually occur, we will need the world's most absurd bout. Something that even makes Vince Russo look puzzled.

Re: Official Indy DVD Thread
I just checked the ROH site and PWG: Sells out is now Sold out, and I have a feeling that this will be the second time that they will send me that "Sold-Out" letter. I'm still waiting for my order after 12 days. It's usually faster that's why I have this feeling.

Re: Official Indy DVD Thread
I saw this one crazy Mexican match years ago. So it started out on on one in the ring and I was like cool, its two halfway decent lucha guys. Then they went out of the ring and fought in the crowd and I was pumped. They were doing stiff chair shots. They worked their way to the bathrooms and fought there. Chicks were screaming and running around. Now that I thionk of it that was the cleanest Mexican bathroom I have ever seen. It was cleaner than at the restaurant I manage. As they fought it looked like they were looking for something. I should mention that in the ring there is a pole and on the top there is a lock box so at this point I realize they must be searching for the key.
Now they go fight in the parking lot, and what do they find? Anothing ring, with a full cage set up to boot. They go inside, do two spots, leave the cage and then one guy finds the key under the second ring. So they fight back into the arena. where they run into another masked guy and one of the guys tags in the rnadom guy who now enters the match. Now they get out tables...turns out before you can get the lock box you need to put an opponent throught the table. So they do some more random spots. The one guy tags himself back in and gets a table spot. He is going to unlock the box when the random third guy tags himself in, hits (botches) a random suplex and wins. Ya, Sweeney should do it.
Or you could just redo Cage Of Death 6 with the 4 on 4 match. That was very confusing. A royal rumble, double ring, cage, elimination, eight man ladder match for a tag title. WTF? Who booked that shit?

Dairy is emotion and crowd interaction, like bones, they strengthen the match, and in there absense, the it will fall apart. Meat is moves like suplexes and finishers. They’re cool, but if you rely on them you’d be unhealthy, and the matches unwatchable. Mat work is fruits and vegetables. We may not like them, but some is sweet chain wrestling. Last is spots and indy MoVEz~!, your sugars and fats. You can't just eat chocolate, and thus you need to do more than flips and head drops to get above ****.

Re: Official Indy DVD Thread
and the only way to eliminate anyone was to THROW them off the top. That just had bad written all over it. Can't say I didn't enjoy the SWERVES during that match either.

ROH - Take No Prisoners 2009
Chris Hero, Incognito & American Wolves vs El Generico, Kevin Steen, Jay Briscoe & Magno - ***
Fight Without Honor
Jimmy Jacobs vs Necro Butcher - ***1/2
Claudio Castagnoli vs Brent Albright vs Blue Demon Jr. - **1/2
Alex Koslov vs Roderick Strong - ***1/2
ROH World Championship
Four Corner Survival
Jerry Lynn vs Erick Stevens vs D-Lo Brown vs Bryan Danielson - ***1/2
Austin Aries & Katsuhiko Nakajima vs Tyler Black & KENTA
Wow is all I can say. Most people may be down in the dumps lately about ROH, but this is the third show in a row with a MOTYC on it. KENTA is on a roll, with him being in all three of those matches and he was THE MAN in this match. The crowd was at it's hottest of the night whenever he was in the ring and they couldn't get enough of him. They actually booed Tyler whenever he got tagged in. Let's be fair, he's not been as interesting ever since Injustice II. He's become very predictable and hardly changes things up anymore. When one of your top faces is getting booed, something is wrong. Aries was also great in this. He provided the much-needed heelish behaviour in this, and he's a great heel, that Nakajima couldn't have provided. The people really bought into him and wanted him to get his arse kicked, and he made for one of my favourite moments of the match. When he kicked KENTA in the face, then went over to Tyler and did the same to him. Nakajima was very good too, mostly because his sequences with KENTA were the highlights. The best moment was definitely after they both collapsed in the middle of the ring, and the camera pans out to show the entire crowd on their feet, chanting "ROH!". The best match of the show by a mile, but it was the only one given a significant amount of time. This show is a big improvement on Caged Collision, but I do feel that PPV quality has dropped big time since Pearce took over.
****1/4

Re: Official Indy DVD Thread
Hey. Anyone know where I can get CZW dvds cheaper? I'm a after some of the 06 shows that are part of they ROH/CZW feud, but Smartmark wants 20 bucks a piece, and ebay doesn't have anything. Just wondered if anyone knew a better place?

Re: Official Indy DVD Thread
20 bucks is a pretty fair price for those DVDs. I'm just saying. Those shows weren't that bad(I enjoyed most) and I say if you can't score any for cheaper, compromise and buy for the set price or d/l.
