Too lazy to start a thread, but today is a worldwide wrestling holiday, it's God's birthday



@Beautiful Bobby Eatin what have been your favorite old school matches from God after doing that deep dive on his old stuff?

The tag titles have been waaay more interesting than the TC this year

Funk is barely 75? I swear I thought he was in his 80s.

For those that like to hate on Janela...GCW sold out two Tokyo shows in August and are adding standing room

Wow I just saw this... tbh breh a lot of it falls on his 70's AJPW run. I was so impressed with his work that he made guys i was kinda on, really fun to watch. Dory Funk in particular. He had this singles match with Jumbo Tsuruta I think in 85 that immediately comes to mind. A lot of the stuff I watched last year was taken off of YouTube though

After a long, LONG time, they finally fight each other again


I don't think Sekimoto has faced WALTER one on one since he changed his name and became a big name in the indy scene. I hope they do even better than when Daisuke was helping him become a "star" in germany.

@TheGodling you don't wanna miss this one.

Someone finally uploaded Sekimoto vs Otani on XWT so I can finally check that out as well (the vid posted in here got removed before I could watch it).
