This "arm breaking" wasn't as believable as the last one

 

[krulmichael]

Snap into a Slim Michaels. Breaaak me!

Sidenizzle - The arm "break" on Trips was sooooo much better than the one on HBK.

Continuing to make Brock look to be a bitch with the amount of times he runs from H's. Don't really care about this match, and not just because we know Brock will be off Raw for the next 2 months or so due to limited appearances.

'New' Mistico (Dragon Lee) debut match that drew 12,000. Hits all of the big spots, shows good charisma.

<iframe width="640" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/HsZ_Wf1vqek?feature=player_embedded" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

Mistico II was also at the press conference obviously to get him more press and he stated that he knows that he must win over the fans which will be hard but he is willing to pretty much risk his career to win them over. He said that he must keep his look as close to the original Mistico that he can but when it comes to working in the ring he pretty much has free reign. He was asked about the reactions to him so far and he said that he doesn't really care right now as he hasn't worked in the character yet and only then people can fairly criticize him. EMLL Directors Jose Luis Feliciano & Panico were asked if he would be working the main events immediately and they said that he would start basically where he left off as Dragon Lee where he must prove himself worthy of being in the main events. They were also asked if they would be charging spot show promoters the same promoting fees as they did for the original Mistico and they answered by saying that he would be mainly working the promotion's owned arenas in Mexico City, Puebla, & Guadalajara which isn't true as he is booked for a shows at Arena Neza & Arena Queretaro in less than two weeks.

He's actually Mistico III, because Incognito was the original 'Mistico' on low profile border shows. Of course, Incognito went on to become Hunico in WWE, where he was also Sin Cara II while Sin Cara I (who was the most famous Mistico) was 'away' for his Wellness violation.

So Mistico II is actually Mistico III, because Sin Cara II was really Mistico I, so Sin Cara I is actually Mistico II even though most people think he was Mistico I.

Got it?

I need some New Wrestling Classic in my life. Watching the hype videos is depressing. All sorts of interesting shit has gone down and I can't see any of it. Syuri went heel with Starbuck and Akira and now there is gonna be a barbed wire match at the end of the month.

:rage:

I'm making a push over on the Observer boards for ACH as 'Rookie of the Year'.

The qualifications are that the wrestler can not have made their "major league full time promotion" debut before September 2011. There is always tons of gray area and debate over this category, especially with the ambiguous "major league" definition.

Even though ACW runs just as many shows as the east coast indies, and ACH started long before September 2011, I say he qualifies based on the precedent set by Robert Evans/RD Evans/Archibald Peck, who finished 5th last year, and also came out of Anarchy, but debuted for CHIKARA & ROH during the voting period. ACH just debuted for CHIKARA last weekend. If Anarchy wasn't considered "major league" as of last year, nothing really changed to consider them major league this year (the whole thing is kind of stupid, because ACW uses more 'major league' talent than CHIKARA, which mostly uses students, and runs just as many shows, but CHIKARA is more high profile and now runs iPPV).

So anyway, i'm pushing for ACH. It's a weak rookie field this year, and I think he should win. Plus I really like his work, and Biss vouches for him being a good guy, so let's get him some pub.

Looks like most of them over there agree that he really shouldn't be considered a rookie, but if Robert Evans counted last year, than ACH should count this year.

Looks like Samuray Del Sol would also qualify, since AAW out of Chicago is in the same boat as Anarchy, where they run just as many shows as the east coast iPPV indies, but aren't as high profile for whatever reason.

It looks like Saturyne & Mr. Touchdown out of CHIKARA are the favorites, with AAA's Dinastia getting a ton of praise from all of the lucha guys, and Chihiro Tominaga of Dragon Gate as the top japanese. Tominaga is very good.

Looks to be wide open.

ACH will debut for ROH on 9/15 on the iPPV.

Congrats to your boy Biss, I know you said on the podcast that working the east coast "big" indies is something he wanted and felt was the next step. First CHIKARA, now this. Good for him.
