If you could bring back one attitude era wrestler or tag team who would it be?

Austin and since New Age Outlawz been said already, I'll go with the Dudley Boyz.

[young2rice]

my company makes its living off of DVD sales so I cant say im over joyed , but if you going back and suporting the product thats cool.

You should pick up a IWA TX DVD while you buying your Chikara

haha yeah I could just dl all of it and be done with it!!! Nah, I want to support them since there a small promotion.

Besides I don't want to pay $20 for something i'm never going to watch again/wouldn't have watched anyway, the only reason i'd watch these again is for the 'good' matches which is what buying the Best of DVD's will do for me. Just doing this more to get the backstory/history feeling as i'm sure you know when you've watched a promotion for longer you can get the subtleties/see the pushes, etc vs. if i just started where CHIKARA is at right now.

Hmm what's that promo like? I see they've got some decent 'indy-stars' listed on their roster with Jacobs/Joey Ryan, etc, etc. Is it like an ROH-style company or a Chikara style company as I see they have some guys on there as well that used to be chikara (Arik)

As it is right now i've got a backlog of stuff to watch heh as I also have a bunch of classic wrestling matches that I looked up on the top 100 wrestling matches lists. (not all 100 hah i have like the top10 and then maybe 15 or so random other ones)

Also i'm not sure if it was here but i found a youtube guy that has a bunch of the CMLL/AAA stuff uploaded to watch and that's a lot of fun.

Also what's the word on CZW? I don't really know anything about the promotion buy somebody said it's apparently going to start airing this month on ION? I think I have that channel.

CZW use to be pretty annoyingly hardcore, like a wannabe ECW without the actual good wrestling and just the hardcore crap. Not sure if it's still that way.

CHIKARA is a bit different then ROH. ROH tends to be a very Americanized Indy promotion, while CHIKARA tends to have a lot of elements of the Japanese style, a little bit of a comedy and a little of the Lucha sorta style. You see a lot of 3-man tags, lots of silly characters, guys in masks and what not.

[RKO BLACK RKO]

SO who will rock feud with on his return to raw as a guest host... they seem to be throwing jerishow @ all the guest maybe Cena or somebody for the rock?

[BigBiss]

We are closser to ROH then Chikara, we patren our selfs after the origanal ECW. we try to offer alittle bit of every thing,

thats my favriote show so far but I think what we have going on Oct 18th will beat it, Any of the LSCs are good and the GBA 2009 was very good as well but I sucked on commentary

^^ heh knew that about chikara meant how did IWS-TX compare, but Biss just answered that :p

Yeah that's what I figured, I seem to recall CZW and something to do with tons of bloody guys and barbed wire/tables/etc and that's never really been my cup of tea.

Exactly, maybe someone else can confirm if CZW still does that crap but everything I watched of them was usually a barbed wire, florescent light match or whatever and that stuff gets real old real fast.

Id love for the Rock to cut a promo on those dinosaurs

The buetiy of ECW was that it was blood and guts, it was lucha, it was eddie vs Dean, it was Sabu and RVD. something for every one

if you looking for Indy star power get the LSC from 2007

[RKO BLACK RKO]

rock + dx would be funny but I also would like him to hit up Jerishow that would be funny as much as he use to make fun of those 2 anyway

[young2rice]

I'd prefer it if he did these M.E - vs - M.E. ones, but then followed it up with at least 1 feud with a young up and comer that he could help push.

[Derrville]

My iMPACT thoughts....

8/10

Analyzing wrestling is fucking stupid, just watch it and love it for what it is.

[Warner2BruceTD]

Analyzing wrestling is fucking stupid, just watch it and love it for what it is.

Right.

Analyzing movies is fucking stupid, too. Analyzing televsion, books, video games, anything really....fucking stupid.

We should just love everything for what it is. No reason to criticize anything, ever.

I probably shouldnt analyze your post, but I will. It sucked.

[BazookaJoe5]

TNA is a shitload of fuck...

At least Daffney and Dr. Stevie get a semi-high profile feud to be a part of at BFG. God knows what is going to happen in that match. Foley will probably go from heel to face to heel to face four or five times during that match alone.
