Kana vs. Mio Shirai. Someone just brought up Kana in another thread so I was prompted to post this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6pqC7XpiInc I linked directly to the second half. The first half is a bit slower and most of that video is entrance and rest hold stuff. You should check it out just for a couple of really cool looking Kana submission holds, but the second half is where the action is. Anyway, both women are capable of really going for it, but Kana is crazy. And rad. Mostly crazy. She's had a couple of lovely matches, in those that I've seen I blame her opponent, but this match is pretty entertaining. Also the finish to the match is very

And I guess to continue on with the Kana theme... Syuri, Makoto and Serena vs. Io Shirai, Mio Shirai and Kana http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=too4Vp7SMWw There's a couple of roughish spots (Mio screwing up a tope) but it's a pretty fun match and Kana and Serena beat the poo poo out of each other with elbows.

I watched the whole thing because I hate myself and to save everyone else from having to watch them. I'll paste my recap from another site.quote:In the first video Warrior claims that Hogan used to have a phrase in the 80's that "a day without smoking pot, brother, is like a day without sunshine". In the second video Warrior claims that Hogan used to go around drinking dopamine which Warrior says can kill then he says that Hogan turned a lot of guys in WCW on to the stuff which caused some of them to OD. He says that Kevin Sullivan was one of those guys which I find kind of odd because Kevin Sullivan is still alive the last time I checked. This was actually quite painful to watch and I feel kinda dirty for sitting through the whole thing. It felt like a long crazy shoot promo on Hogan to sell copies of a book Warrior plans to release (he mentions this in the first video). I thought the comment about Kevin Sullivan was weird because he just finished talking about wrestlers dying from OD'ing on dopamine in wcw but he couldn't name any dead wrestlers. Seems very bitter about comments Hogan has made about him. I'm sure there will be a lawsuit from Hogan soon.

IMO if you're going to accuse someone of killing people, wrestlers in the locker room no less, you should be able to name them.

Killed any chance they had of picking up the fans that were WCW diehards to the end, knocked off a lot of casual fans that had come around in 2000 and 2001.

When accounting for scale and the enormity of the opportunity they missed, it probably is one of the biggest blunders in sports business history. It didn't lose billions of dollars, and it didn't kill the company, but it was essentially a license to print money for a few years and they defied all odds to turn it into a failure. I've said it before, but I'll never forget the Wrestling Observer Live from the day of or after the sale went down. The show had a bunch of people fantasy booking the Invasion, and most of them were pretty bad. They were all a million times better than what actually happened.

This Warrior video is good stuff. I'm not a big fan of Warrior, remembering his CSPAN speeches during the RNC of 2004, his now deleted youtube videos of his college lecture circuit days where he called an angry Arabic American student a towel head, his retarded Scientology-like lawsuit shenanigans which he threatened this site with. I wasn't a big fan where he exchanged emails with me regarding an interview I wanted to do where he decided I was too liberal. His shameless and egomaniacal self-merchandising... Etc, etc, etc... But Jesus, I hate the big orange goblin a bit more.

I think of the Warrior video the same way I see the Self-Destruction of the Ultimate Warrior. I know that whoever's behind it has an ax to grind. I know that it's an extremely one-sided hatchet job. I know that it's given to us by someone extremely shady and unreliable. At the same time, I also recognize that a good deal of it is probably true because... I mean, look at who the target is! Besides, it's an hour of iceburnage against someone who has it coming. I'm entertained. That said, if it were to be Hogan doing a shoot on Warrior, I wouldn't enjoy it nearly as much. With WWE and Warrior, I can accept their lies as being some kind of variation or mutation of the truth. Hogan's lies are like something out of Million Little Pieces.

Ayumi Kurihara vs. Yoshiko Tamura, NEO 2010 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iGJE95_HC30 I REALLY wish I could find the full version of her '06 champion vs. champion match against Hyuga since the only thing I've seen so far is a clipped for TV version... that winds up being about 25 minutes total of a 60 minute draw.

I finally got around to watching the Warrior's videos. And while there are some pretty glaring inaccuracies (like him painting the hilarious image of Hogan walking into his divorce hearing in full Hulk Hogan character, which photos from the courtroom show hogan dressed rather well), I'm really just glad that Warrior finally defended himself.
