Wow I must say I never thought I'd see Naito and Teddy Hart on the same card. That's a lot of ungovernable-ness

He'll hear people chanting for Naito and throw a fit. He'll do a flip from the ceiling to the floor and storm out when Naito doing the tranquilo pose gets a bigger pop.

Nonsense. I have not yet begun to defile myself.

He was fine at the Wrestlepro show I was at last week. Even jobbed to a local guy (on a rollup after kicking the poo poo out of him for ten minutes, but still).

I go to every OTT show. It's going to be fun, and smoke and mirrors. If it gets weird and brutal I'd be absolutely astounded. They have *some* interaction between the men and the women, Nixon Newell and Martina took on the Gymnasties, or when Corvin kicked Martina's face off. This will mostly be comedy imo. If I was buying tickets for a great Pete Dunne match, I probably wouldn't buy it for this one, but it'll be enormous fun.

Incidentally I saw that Minoru Suzuki Asuka match and it made my skin crawl.

oh, yeah, I've seen Martina before so I more or less know what to expect. I still feel like Dunne will end up doing one or two "brutal" spots, but ones that are super safe to work, rather than, yknow, big suplex on the apron or whatever.

also, I'm going to the OTT show on April 1 (and theoretically the March 31 show, if that ends up happening; there's a Facebook page saying it'll be at Tivoli but no details yet). feel free to say hi, I'll be the probably-still-jetlagged American in an LIJ hat :v:

I find it's less uncomfortable if you bear in mind that Asuka herself booked it that way because she's a Suzuki mark, but yeah.

I'm actually not able to go to the April 1 show I have discovered, but I did buy a seated ticket. If you're not sorted yet let me know. They still have loads at the moment. They put the womens on sale first to shift as many as they could be for. If you haven't got a ticket for the 1st, I'd sell it at a discount.

The 31st show is definitely happening, they always work the saturday, the sunday thing is only for bank holidays.

If I see you on the 31st, I will be the grey bearded person who gets easily upset at what can only be described as chicanery in the front row.

Yeah I found that out after the match. we were watching it queueing to get into the show, and then afterwards someone filled me in. It's still loving gross to me, even if Asuka is definitely fully on board for it all.

Ah, I've already got a GA ticket for April 1. Didn't realize until now that it's a standing one, but it looks like an okay venue for it. I'll say definitely say hi on the 31st, though!

Cool, if I can't shift the seated, I'll pass it over to you, no charge. Way better as a viewing proposition. I have some concerns that they won't sell it out as it's their first all women show.

It gonna be gud.

I did a post on Reddit yesterday talking about OTT and what it was like, seeing as people are talking about it a bit now, I'll post the free matches and context here:

To quote our commentator. Ladies and Gentlemen, This Is O. T. T.
https://www.reddit.com/r/SquaredCircle/comments/7w41l2/introduction_and_free_matches_from_my_local/

If anyone wants to check out the best match, that's probably Mike Bailey against Matt Riddle. The BSS/Angel Cruzers is really funny.

Also: Preview for Homecoming -
FEATURING THE CAGE MATCH.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uUIV_hhpwgA

Speedball Mike Bailey vs. Matt Riddle
Setup for match: This was to establish who was in contention for a title shot.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rd6Y9wdqgMM


British Strong Style (Tyler Bate, Pete Dunne, Trent Seven) vs. The Angel Cruzers (Angel Cruz, B.Cool) and Tyler Bate.

Setup for match: Deep Breath.

Pete Dunne was a big name in OTT for months, Tyler Bate came in separately. They were not a team. Tyler had a tag team in OTT with Angel Cruz, because Angel thought that Tyler was Tyler Breeze, who was similarly a self obsessed social media star. Natural they should tag. Tyler was nonplussed but tagged with Angel anyway. Then British Strong Style blew up, Pete, Tyler and Trent became very very hot very quickly, and Angel challenged Trent to a tag match, him and Tyler and B. Cool (A godawful eejit, who is also amazing) vs. Tyler, Trent and Pete. Angel not realising that they both had Tyler on their team. Watch the promo first.

(Match)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c6qvyRG_Tuw&t=2s

Speedball Mike Bailey vs. Nathan Martin
Setup for match: Nathan Martin is a young wrestler on the undershow, who was denied a spot on the big national stadium show, so he was given a 'dark match' to compensate, against Mike Bailey.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ntgf965iBug


Aussie Open vs. Jordan Devlin and Scotty Davis
Setup for match: This was Aussie Open's debut match. Jordan and Scotty are tagging fro the first time, at a contenders show. Jordan is the Import Killer, he takes on anyone brought into Ireland to face him.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=21FZ7K1FW7g




Bobby George Junior (Rob Cage) vs Zack Gibson
Setup to match: 1980s Darts player Bobby George Junior (Cumbria's second most eligible bachelor) is a massive fan favourite because of Tony Idle, his announcer, who shouts out darts terms during the match. Zack Gibson is a oval office.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=65-VXboF7uo

Ricochet vs. Jeff Cobb
Setup to match: Dream match! This took place in Belfast.
-Someone on reddit said:

quote:

The Ricochet vs. Jeff Cobb match is loving amazing. I was watching the Ricochet 'year in review' thing on Highspots where he talks about this match, says it was completely improvised. Both him and Cobb were going on earlier than they expected, they'd spent a while with fans beforehand and didn't have time to outline any spots.

Marty Scurrl vs. Matt Riddle

The undercard tends to be very SE. Three higher up the card you go the better the match quality, and less smoke and mirrors. Also the more imports.
