Video Vault 14: All out of witty subtitles!

By -








Yeah. Watch this instead of No Surrender. This is free. And I'm a better judge of what the people want to see than Scott D'Amore. In essence, Me>TNA. That's not scientific or anything, but I'm sure you'll agree...

Rey Misterio Jr. v. Psicosis - Mexican Death Match (ECW - November to Remember 1995)

It's Rey Jr. in 1995. If that doesn't compel you to watch this, no other pithy comments from me will do the trick, either. This is a little too ECW for my tastes (why do Rey & Psicosis, of all people, have to stoop to the garbagy stuff to get their match over?), but still a hell of a match. (14:03)

AJ Styles v. Christopher Daniels v. Petey Williams v. Chris Sabin (IWA-MS: Autumn Armageddon - 10.21.04)

Story behind this one is that the IWA champ, Arik Cannon, had broken his collarbone (after a clothesline from one Austin Aries, for you trivia buffs out there) and this match was to crown a new champion. It's not mind blowing or anything, but anytime I can post some IWA-MS, I will. It's probably my favorite company on the planet right now and has been for most of the last 3 or 4 years. (34:09)

Takeshi Morishima & Takeshi Rikio v. KENTA & Naomichi Marufuji (Pro Wrestling NOAH - 7.16.06)

Here's another match getting some hype in terms of being a MOTYC. I actually haven't seen this one, but figured I'd go ahead and post it. You decide. People are comparing Morishima to a young Terry Gordy, so if that's at all true, you should love this. (36:22)

Dusty Rhodes, Nikita Koloff, The Road Warriors & Paul Ellering v. Ric Flair, Tully Blanchard, Arn Anderson, Lex Luger & JJ Dillion - WarGames (NWA: Great American Bash 1987 - 7.31.87)

How have I never posted this? God, this is one of my favorite matches ever. Probably the best gimmick match in wrestling and it took the combined powers of Warrior and Hogan to deliver a boring match. Anyway, violence personified. 8 guys who hate one another beat the shit out of each other. This is what wrestling should aspire to. (23:01)

Jimmy Rave, Alex Shelley & Masato Yoshino v. Dragon Kid, Ryo Saito & Genki Horiguchi (ROH: Better Than Our Best - 4.1.06)

Not as good as the match the night before (posted in the last VV if you missed it), but that's not meant to be a knock or anything. Still a really fun six man. I might actually prefer it, but I have a personal bias towards the Embassy. (20:22)

Video Vault #21 - More fun than a barrel of monkeys!

The flurry of Heart Punch activity continues, as I bust out a Video Vault post, just so I can say that we had new content every day for a week. Because that's certainly worthy of merit, right? RIGHT? Chris Hero & Team F.I.S.T. (Icarus & Akuma) v. Mike Quackenbush & ShaneSaw (Shane Storm & Jigsaw) (CHIKARA - Return of the Son of the International Invasion of the International Invaders: 1st Stage - 8.19.06) Spreadin' the CHIKARA love! Seriously...if you can watch CHIKARA and not *love* CHIKARA, you might be dead inside. I'm about to dive into the King of Trios shows tonight, so huzzah to me. And, uh...this match is heaping helpings of awesome. Just watch it. Necro Butcher v. Roderick Strong (IWA:MS - Hurt - 3.24.06) Not as fun as most of the Necro "dream matches" that have happened over the past year. Which is odd, as you'd think Roddy would be the perfect guy to beat the shit out of Necro (because really…that's what most of these matches amo

Wrestling Society X #5

By -
Two recaps in two days? Perish the thought! What are the odds that I can make it through all six shows without skipping a day? That would be nutty. -Tonight, The Filth and the Fury faces Team Dragon Gate. 6-Pac answers Human Tornado's challenge. Arik Cannon debuts versus the also debuting Delikado and Ricky Banderas SPEAKS! -Opening montage. - Jibbs performs. -Clips of the fireball angle from the last show. This leads into the Banderas promo (w/subtitles, even though he speaks decently clean English). Apparently, Vampiro is the cause of his facial scarring after he rigged Banderas' coffin to explode. What is it with Vamp and exploding coffins? He promises Vamp that his days are numbered. Team Dragon Gate v. The Filth and the Fury - Teddy Hart and Yoshino open with a quick armdrag sequence. Hart takes control, taking him down with a Russian legsweep and picking up a two count. Both guys tag. Genki tackles M-Dogg, then takes him over with a hiptoss. He charges, but gets elevated

MTV's Wrestling Society X - Pilot Episode (1.26.07)

By -
So, the great MTV wrestling experiment has finally arrived on my television. What I expect going in: Zero. Zilch. Nada. Nothing. At best, it'll be stupid spotty fun that feels like it flies by in seconds. At worst, it'll be stupid spotty fun that's so stupid that it'll wrap back around to awesomeness. Seriously, I think this show is an absolute no loss formula. Great roster of young guys, a few vets that can still go and fuck…it's New Jack . NEW JACK! On MTV. In 2007. That's quality right there. -We get some goofiness right off the bat, as MTV doesn't seem to know which show it wants to play. We get a minute or so from the preview of this coming season of Two-a-Days, then switch to your regularly scheduled Wrestling Society X programming. Weird. Tonight, Matt Sydal squares off with Jack Evans and there will be a ten man WSX Rumble to determine the two men who'll go for the WSX title next week. Also, Black Label Society . -Speaking of BLS, here they a
