I can't find the video, but as I remember, everyone else remained silent until the 10-bell salute finished, then as soon as the 10th bell hit, they swarmed the guy.

I haven't studied closely enough, really. What made me say that was first and foremost a video that I think was part of a Botchamania, where CZW decided for once to have a fairly traditional no-props face vs. heel match. It was nothing spectacular, but not bad for low-budget/amateur, went a decent length.

And the audience loving HATES IT. They're SCREAMING. They don't want wrestling at all, they want to see people get busted open. It's like an episode of Spartacus.
Which just makes the removal of the Osirian Portal video all the more tragic.

That's a pretty awesome match but is Jigsaw as annoyingly indytastic as he comes off in that video? Between the tattoos, pants and using joshi/puro finishers as mid-match nearfall moves he seems like he stepped right out of 2002. Also, the ending seems really rushed and a bit anti-climactic.

So I loved the Kevin Nash shoot interview with RF Videos, and I'm halfway through the Kurt Angle one. What others should I really see? If I could get my hands on the Cornette tape, I'd watch it in a heartbeat, obviously, but which ones are "the best"?

Semi-related: I was watching the Nash interview, and at one point Nash says "Why do you think no one gives a gently caress about Ring Of Honor?"

I laughed, then I realized he was talking with Rob Feinstein, the founder of RoH, and I laughed some more.

The CM Punk one, mostly for the story about how he fractured his skull and the crazy mofo wouldn't even take a shot of morphine.

I admire his clean lifestyle, but drat not taking a shot of morphine after a fractured skull? That's dedication and amazing will power.

He recovered from it with absolutely no pharmaceutical pain relief and the extents he went to to achieve this are quite the story.

Yeah, I'm not a fan of Zbyszko at all. He always seems to have bought into his own hype and even in WCW he annoyed me. The best part about that video is him whining about being filmed while having rogaine in what's left of his hair.

Regardless of the deluge of stips that's pretty good match. Pretty much every Dibiase/Duggan match I've seen from Mid South was good. Duggan was actually pretty drat good in Mid South.
