Damn, this video did not that many comments in recent times before MVP recommended this clip. These Wrestling News sites & IWantWrestling sure does have some drawing power.
MVP became the 1st ever IWGP Intercontinental Champion like 2 weeks ago. He has new moves in his arsenal & has improved greatly the way he moves in the ring. Good on him
They were both too big and too strong. It would be like Batman and Spiderman taking on Superman and the Incredible Hulk. As cool as Batman and Spiderman are they would be no match for the Hulk and Superman. (That is what I meant to say).
They couldn't be lucky forever. There's a reason why WWE doesn't allow the moves popularized by AJPW even though Johnny Ace has been head of the talent relations for 6 years now.
The Tiger Driver 91 is among with the Burning Hammer, Wrist-Clutch Burning Hammer, Brainbuster, Ligerbomb, Half Nelson Suplex, Black Crush and the Tombstone my favorite Move ever. And may a couple more, but right now i cant list more.
wrestling is a very complex combination of real and fake. Real is something like the Tiger Driver 91 and the person taking it has to land correctly, but it will still hurt. Fake is more of the punching and kicking aspect. Look at a few of Shawn Michaels Sweet Chin Musics. Some are real and some are fake.
all wrestling is scripted (in other words they plan who will win) but i can assure you that taking a tiger driver 91 (or any sort of wrestling move for tha matter) is not the funnest thing you can do.
The Original Tiger Driver Is A Double Underhook Sit-Out Powerbomb. The Tiger Driver '98 Is A Double Underhook Piledriver. There Is Also The Dragon Driver By Super Dragon Which Is An Avalanche Tiger Driver.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
the greatest wrestling match of all time not lieing look at it at record book it says HULK HOGAN vs ANDRE THE GIANT best pro wrestling match of all time
That match (Hogan vs Andre) was boring as hell, The WWE has houndreds of better matches than that match. And Japan has thounsands of better matches than that match
@Hellhammerabadon I guess it depends on what you like. If you like all of these fancy moves then yeah it would be boring as hell. The thing is that all of these wrestlers that do all of these fancy moves would never be able to do them on Hogan or Andre in their prime. They were both too big and too strong. It would be like Batman and Spider taking on Superman and the Incredible Hulk. As cool as Batman and Spiderman are they would be no match for the Hulk and Superman.
Maybe because he doesn't have the strength anymore, but recently when he's done the Tiger Driver, he just lays them out, so it's more like a Power Bomb than a true "driver," with the head and shoulders hitting the mat. I kind feel cheated when he does it like that. This one,though, is spot on. Kawada just gets fuckin' planted! Once you get hit with that, it's OVER!
Second greatest match ever, to me, man. It's in parts here on Youtube, and let me dig around, I'll see if I can get you an actual file, so quality is preserved.
Every Kawada/Misawa/Kobashi/Akiyama/Taue match I've seen tends to blur. After watching 15+ years' worth of matches involving those 5, I can't tell which match is which anymore with just the date. I have to watch that match now just to see if I even have it.
No, I'm not. Do you honestly think I'm the only one that thinks this match is better than anything WWE or TNA has ever done? No. MANY people feel that way. Puro has just as many bad matches as any other fed, but this match is nothing short of great.
Everybody should be a puro fanboy. Beats being a TNA fanboy anyday, although TNA has done some awesome stuff, especially during their early days one weekly PPV.
actually i have..just because you think Puro is better than ANYTHING else doesnt mean we do..by you saying "this match is better than anything TNA or WWE has done" makes me think your a fanboy im not saying this match is bad but to say its better than ANYTHING wwe or tna has put on? give me a break
This is the second greatest wrestling match in history. If you honestly think that TNA or WWE has put on a greater match than this, I feel sorry for you.
yeh ur right... i just more liberally use the term 'strong style', but technically yes.. the AJ of the 90's was the golden age of kings road (Oudou). and about HHH pedigree, that was botch.. of course botches look brutal.. and chris is still dbmark (douchebagmark).
ok chris u r a moron, u have no idea what ur talking about... i dont watch botchmania, but have seen a few.. and the thing is, marks like u think a lot of the puro stuff u c on there r botches, but they r not.. it is the way the move is spotted u dummy, its called 'strong style'. something a dumb wwe mark like u could never appreciate. dont talk, u have no idea what u speak of.
So you judge Puro as a whole based on vids that highlight botches from all over the world? So I take it WWE, TNA, and every other wrestling fed in the world can't wrestle good because they're highlighted in those videos? Don't judge a fed or genre of wrestling based on a music video like that.
This match is better than anything WWE or TNA has done in their entire history. Again, shut your mouth. You have no idea what you're talking about, so just end it here. I've seen Puro wrestling, you haven't, you have no room to run your mouth.
This match on its own has got more "Pro Wrestling" to it than WWE and TNA have done in the past 6 years alone.
And how can they be Pro Wrestling and this not? It's a scripted fight, in a four sided wrestling ring in a Pro Wrestling company. Am I missing something here?
Agreed; you took the words right out of my mouth, manjimortal. I've seen all of the Botchamania videos, and the great majority of the botches are NOT from puroresu. There are good and bad wrestlers from both sides, but it is WWE and sometimes TNA that ignores real wrestling in favor of their ridiculous overbooked soap opera.
