Episode 37 is here pals! It's our Chris Things Art "Match of the Week" Edition w/ my dear friend (& fellow American Dragon aficionado), Bradley, talking the INCREDIBLE Bryan Danielson vs Shingo bout - not from this past week, but 14 years ago in Dragon Gate USA! So here's the deal, we watched the DGUSA edition as a primer for the big AEW rematch & for a variety of reasons (as we discuss), the Forbidden Door edition just couldn't reach the lofty heights of the original. So this ended up a more 'compare & contrast' look at both. Still two VERY fine professional wrestling matches might I say! Hopefully this is an interesting listen for anyone who's caught both of these matches. Chock full of glowing praise for 2 of the very best wrasslers still to this day in the American Dragon & Shingo Takagi! We also have some amusing nonsense sidebars such as a look at Ring of Honor's tin guardrails of death (that I'm still very fond of) & Robert Rodiriguez' Mariachi Trilogy.In my intro "Latest in the world of Chris Things" segment, I talk being very excited for the upcoming Forge Forward Mini Mall Art-Market here in Brisbane, some fun commission work & some more of my Way of the Blade illustration flashbacks - including the very first illustration that I did for the book!Enjoy!!Check out the Chris Things MOTW illustration in question here: American Dragon vs. Shingo TakagiChrisThings.com.au is the place for original art, prints, calendars & much more!Follow us on Instagram: @ChrisThings, @SocialSuplexFollow us on Twitter: @ChrisThings, @SocialSuplexLike us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/SocialSuplex/Join our Discord: https://discord.gg/QUaJfaCVisit our website for news, columns, and podcasts: https://socialsuplex.com/Join the Social Suplex community Facebook Group: The Wrestling (Squared) CircleWrestling-Art with Chris Things is the Pro-Wrestling Art niche Podcast of the Social Suplex Podcast Network.
