			I also recommend this match from January 1984 on WWF T.v Tiger Mask vs Mr. Saito. Starts at the 1 hour 8 minute mark. I actually prefer this match over the famous Dynamite Kid vs Tiger Mask from Madison Square Garden 1982 match. |

			12 pages it took to get to Tiger Mask. OK, so let's go Japanese style for a page or two. What matches should I watch to get into Japanese wrestling? An example of strong style would be fun along with the more traditional wrestling. |

			That would be a question for Destor or Fignuts. Never got into Japanese or Lucha mainly because I don't speak either language and thus can't understand the commentary.

			I can do a different thread for that. I respect your input so I will continue on the righteous path. I would like to know what jobbers you found particularly entertaining. Stevie Richards is my all time favourite jobber, especially when he created Right To Censor and got into winning. |

			I LOVED Iron Mike Sharpe. His whole shtick was hilarious. Rusty Brooks who was a big fat jobber in the mid 80s that Vince called "a walrus" was fucking tremendous. Have you ever watched the episode of Tuesday Night Titans where all the guests were jobbers? It was awesome and Rusty Brooks steals the show. The Duke of Dorchester Pete Doherty was really entertaining For whatever reason I was a big Mideon fan. Probably because i used to watch Shotgun Saturday Night/WWF Metal every Saturday and he was always on it. Lastly, in 97-98 Jim Cornette was booking the jobbers ao you'd get awesome indie guys like Ace Darling, Christopher Daniels and Devon Storm and old Southern rasslers like Tommy Rogers and Davey Rich. The Hardy Boyz were awesome jobbers as well I'm a jobber lover and could talk about them for ages |

				               | 13:35 for the most bafflingly poignant musical choice in wrestling history. The video accompanying the tune should be a tampon advert. |

			Continental Wrestling was an amazing Territory that was pretty much not talked about until about 10 years ago. They didn't get a lot of magazine coverage, but with pretty much every territory being at your finger tips with how advanced technology is, people are seeing how great it was.

			Iron Mike Sharpe had the physique of a Roman gladiator. Was he the one that used to run up and down the bleachers before and after an event? |

			it was weird. Sharpe in his younger days had a really good body. As he got older he was still in good shape -- in really good shape, actually -- but his body was not exactly an aesthetic pleasure to behold.

			Haha yup, Sharpe was in crazy shape. When you watch his House Show matches he's constantly moving. He doesn't just sit in a nerve hold like most wrestlers his size.

			I felt the same way about Dino Bravo using the strongman gimmick when I was a kid. Because I was stupid and thought strongmen should have a physique like the Ultimate Warrior or British Bulldog.  I’m sitting on my couch thinking to myself, “that guy’s not strong, he’s just fat!”

			At 1:10 of that women's match you can see the world's most dangerous suplex. That's right after a phantom clothesline and a rope run where one girl just falls down for no reason. Could not finish. |

			They do that thing where they shake their shoulders around then start bouncing towards each other like kids play fighting on a couch. Fucking dreadful. |

 Though I think how guys look on TV under the lights versus real life is always interesting. On TV Steve Austin looked... almost like an everyman? Not that he looked in bad shape, but compared to the body guys he was just kind of "there," specifically when you're a kid. Then you see him next to regular people or even his role in the Expendables, and realize he's actually a fucking behemoth and jacked as fuck. | |

				               | This is actually a great match but the little white guy in the gi cracks me up. He calls himself "Kung Fu" and he taps out to a vertical suplex before it can be completed for one of the falls... |
