First few mins.
Nothing wrong with this at all. Excalibur did a good job of providing the history between these two and so far the story is that its the rubber match but now insted of it being played on Drakes home turf its in B-Boys. Drakes actually doing a damn great job of selling so far up to the neckbreaker from the outside to back inside the ring. B-Boys new gimmick of him being at a career re birth is coming off good so far and Drake playing the established wrestler whos in a new territory hasnt kicked in just yet but the crowd is warming up.

Mid
Drake kills himself with a front flip off the top that B-Boy didnt catch him on after an apron michinoku driver. Did not look pretty. So far the only "pointles head dumping" has been the half and half but im still only mid match. I expected an all out were going to kill each other brawl and its been no worse than any other indy match involving Steen or Generico bump wise......and then the damn double stomp/exploder to the floor happens and Drake is hard wayd. Jesus. Still not as worse as some bumps but the way Drake just instantly bled makes it look a whole lot worse. The avalance Ammityville Horror ended up looking sweet.

Later in
Didnt care much for Drake Draking up after the ammityville horror off the turnbuckle but he did it with great timing that it got the crowd into it. I guess this is where the no selling/head bumping begins with B-Boys ace cutter and back drops? Yeah, Drakes getting right back up for B-Boys set up but its not like hes popping up acting like nothing happend. Then the shining wizard happens. Should of atleast milkd it for a near fall but again the crowd is eating it up. Sweet Jesus Drakes channeling Dynamite Kid with being dropped on his head so many times. I do like how they are atleast showing emotion during the forarm exchange. Damnit, Drake no sell the cornor stomp. Air raid crash and its done.

Overall
Not as terrible as people were making it out. I expected no selling out the ass and their wasnt. There was some I didnt care for and the actual no selling wasnt needed but it got the crowd to react so it worked. This match wasnt as great as I expected but was by no means terrible in any shape or form.

Overall rating
***1/2-****

One of the worst matches I have ever seen. No storytelling, selling was horrid, they were having these big spots FOR NO RAISON, shitty no selling spots, no psychology, and had as much emotion as a white wall. A shitty, glorified spot fest which only redeeming quality is blood which I'm sure was a mistake brought upon by their shittiness. Fuck that match and everything it stands for.

So pretty much it was like Callihan vs Elgin without blood? And that match wasnt shit either. Same premiss in that it was big bumps for no reason and the matches only storyline was were the same style yet it gets no hate. Sense, it makes none.

Capone is on the money. Elgin/Callihan was fucking toss too.

I haven't watched nor am I going to watch Callihan vs. Elgin but if it was the same match then it can eat shit too. Makes no difference to me who the wrestlers are. There is a difference between a match with a storyline and a story. Story is what Younger vs. B-Boy lacked among SEVERAL other things. It's just a horrific display of bullshit.

I thought B-Boy vs Younger was awesome. I loved it, then again I really love spotfests and big moves/bumps/spots.

Avoid the 'PWG=Overkill' thread as on Page 2 a user edited his post with the BOLA 2012 winner included. Just a head's up since I already knew the winner but remembered a few people in this section mentioned about wanting to watch BOLA free of any spoilers.

Gimmick and character.

[Dyer Consequences]

That was one of my favorite matches of the weekend.

Marshe lighting him up and then Pinkie jumping over the guardrail and into the laps of guys and gals at ringside.

I loved Pinkie in CHIKARA.

[TaylorFitz]

Pinkie was incredible in that match. He was the man while playing a despicable heel in Chikara.
