Chris James 2 posted:Good recap of the Collective shows https://indiewrestlingintl.wordpres...signs-with-bjw/ The highlight of all the non-GCW shows I saw was definitely the sparsely attended IWS show that was headlined by Arik Canon vs. Sexxxy Eddy in an “Alcobrawl” where every few minutes a song played and they had to take shots and beers. Now the wrestlers swore the drinks were real, they sure smelled real, but they pounded back 10-15 shots and a half dozen beers each in 20 minutes flat and were still standing backstage afterwards so I’m not 100% sure what to think. Also on the card was Green Phantom winning a 3 way with Gage and Tremont that went all over.  Edit: the drinks were certainly real. It was a very long night with Eddy haha stab fucked around with this message at 23:10 on Apr 11, 2019 |

Blackcraft is also worth watching, just not by yourself or with the intent to see what most would call a "good wrestling show"

Trying to take it seriously would probably lead to serious injury or something so definitely don't do that. It's the sort of show that'd be on old MST3K if they watched wrestling instead of movies.

The collective thing is worth $100 IMO. All 4 GCW shows, AIW, and ISW were loving great. Family Reunion and Black Label Pro were good. I have not seen IWS or Chikara, but Chikara had two HM level matches from what I’ve heard. Blackcraft sucked poo poo so bad that it’s almost worth watch parts of just to say you’ve seen the worst show of the millennium.

A few of those Collective shows are also on Independent Wrestling TV if you're looking to be more picky.

I might wind up picking up Bloodsport at some point. I bought the two Janela shows and watched everything else on IWTV, but the concept of Bloodsport intrigues me enough to want to actually pay for it. That and the DDT show are, I think the main two shows I'm still thinking about buying.

If you're gonna watch Blackcraft watch the opening 26 minutes where the commentators don't realize they're on air because it has some gems. Maybe be drunk or high though.

What's the whole deal with Bloodsport anyway? Is it an actual shoot or no? Probably going to check it out today but want to know what to expect.

It's like old UWFi stuff was - still worked pro wrestling but they're sticking to a much more hard-hitting and realistic style, with a bunch of actual grappling and striking in it. Some people do just get knocked out though. Draxion fucked around with this message at 00:23 on Apr 14, 2019 |

The ending to the second match at bloodsport was brutal as soon as Kratos dropped that punch you knew the other guy was completely out

I went to 11 Mania weekend shows. Here is a list of them and the things I thought about when typing their names in this post just now- Bloodsport: Is my favorite thing ever and I would like all pro wrestling to be Bloodsport in the future. Also, if Josh Barnett can't lend his name to the show again next year because of Bellator, they should just cut out the middle man and have Minoru Suzuki's Bloodsport because he's perfect for it. Almost every match was fun, and some of them were incredibly high energy and entertaining, even things like Andy Williams/Chris Dickinson that I had no thoughts on going in were hugely impactful in a week full of matches. WrestleCon SuperShow: Lots of fun, only slightly down on the live experience as my seat wasn't too great. I really enjoyed the SCU/Best Friends & OC match, as well as seeing Liger in that setting. All of the other singles matches absolutely delivered as well. RevPro UK: I understand why they paced the show as they did, but no one is getting a reaction after you get Suzuki working with Tanahashi. I did enjoy hearing the Roppongi 3K theme 3 times, that's worth a GA ticket alone. I saw Jonathan Gresham like 4 or 5 times and this was probably the match he shined the most in for me. MLW: Was less spicy than the mediocre salsa I had at Holy Guacamole before going to that show. The crowd was more turned up than the wrestlers though which always makes for a weird environment. La Parka is fat and Filthy Tom is great. Blackcraft: Bloodsport, Orange Cassidy, IWS, and JJSB3P2 were at this same venue and at those shows all the seats had the ticket holder's name on a post-it note for whatever row they bought in alphabetical order, however, Blackcraft had more of a "lord of the flies" mentality where you were given a wristband indicating, I think, just "not GA" and then sent out to "find a seat in your row". My brother and I found two open seats near ringside. I stayed until right before the Masato Tanaka match because it was the difference between getting back on a Path train at 3 AM vs 4 AM staying any longer. I regret the decision to leave far less than agreeing to go in the first place. Orange Cassidy: There is nothing that can be said about this show that hasn't been said about this show already. For what you want to get out of a show like this, it was a home loving run, just so many fun moments. Although I wasn't huge on when Teddy Hart threw the cat wildly into the air. While he was wandering the crowd during another show I asked if the cat was on Ketamine, he said no, I asked if he was on Ketamine, he was less committal with an answer. IWS: My brother and I were going to NJPW and wanted to be there by 6:30 so we could only stay for two matches, but they were both fun and it probably would've been a good show to stick around for, definitely not the barn burner other shows were, but hard workers looking to show off so definitely going to try and catch a replay. NJPW: It was the worst of ROH and the pretty good of NJPW all on one card. I left before the main event to get to Spring Break on time because of the issue with seats the night before at Blackcraft. I also enjoyed hearing the Roppongi 3K theme three more times. JJSB3P2: I can only really attest to what happened before I blacked out about halfway through the clusterfuck match, and there are only confusing blackout recollection images of things I'm not sure really happened after that. I feel like I saw Hornswoggle bite off a piece of flesh from Necro Butcher's foot. I remember the spot with the massive thing of like 8 light tubes. At one point there was someone missing multiple legs. La Parka was there all fat and winning again. I also went to WrestleMania and Raw, I regret that more than going to Blackcraft.

Oh, also, El Hijo de LA Park was in the ring with Sami Callihan and my brother asked me, "Is that El Hijo de LA Park again?" But I thought he said, "Is that The Human Fart again?" referring to Sami Callihan. Mods, please change Sami Callihan's name to "The Human Fart"
