Yes, the one with the eye... Plucked from Guerrilla Island, Sarah Flann comes to talk about Bryan Danielson vs. Takeshi Morishima from Ring of Honor's Manhattan Mayhem II on August 25, 2007. Unfortunately, Sarah's audio had a habit of dropping out mid-sentence. The options were to spend a lot of time editing around it, trying to keep as much of what she is saying, or leave it as is, and let our intelligent listeners fill in the blanks. We chose option B. PLUS: Mark's first good joke, some Morishima/NOAH history, some Ring of Honor World Title history, unavoidable discussion of a horrible injury, the Bryan Danielson thought process, Pac, Kieran plays devil's advocate, Raw dark matches, and find out who doesn't do legs.

We're joined again by dear friend JR Goldberg, who curated a playlist of Ring of Honor's bloody and melodramatic 2007 for the show. Fuck, Marry, Kill: Delirious, Colt Cabana, Takeshi Morishima? This episode was recorded 2½ months ago and then we stopped making this podcast for awhile. We appreciate those who stuck with us and hope to get things back on track (whatever track there was) soon! Jimmy Jacobs vs. Colt Cabana (ROH 2/24/07) No Remorse Corps (Davey Richards, Rocky Romero & Roderick Strong) & Matt Sydal vs. The Resilience (Austin Aries, Erick Stevens & Matt Cross) & Delirious (ROH 8/11/07) Takeshi Morishima vs. Bryan Danielson (ROH 8/25/07) The Briscoes vs. Kevin Steen & El Generico (ROH 9/15/07) Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts, follow us on Twitter, TikTok, Instagram, and send us an email at wrestlingisgross@gmail.com and tell us something really weird! 

So, Doug and Bill would like to let you know that they have a podcast.  They have had this podcast for almost a whole year now. They want to remind you of this because it seems as if they either don't put podcasts out anymore, or they run into multiple technical difficulties. Well here it is the long awaited, only half cursed Episode #42. In this week's episode the boys do an AEW All Out Preview. They break down the card, give you all the juicy details and rumors. OR they mumble their way through it and pretend to know what they're talking about. This week they go over pimento cheese balls, Big Dave, Enjoy Wrestling, The Show Big, pornography, nipple tape, Stand and Deliver, Have A Nice Day, Battleground Pro Wrestling's From the Ashes, QT Marshall, The Good Brothers, Programmed To Kill, and Stokely Hathaway. Here are a couple of questions for you after listening: How many times does Doug yawn during the episode? What do you think was censored when Bill said “**** Magnet ****”?  What is your favorite Edward James Olmos film? My answers: Since I saw the video, I know that there are more than Bill even reacted to. Heck. Easily, hands down, American Me.

We finally discuss the big man himself, Takeshi Morishima. From minute 37 onwards we are mostly talking about his personal life leading up to and following his retirement from wrestling, for this conversation we want to include a content warning for themes of physical and mental illness, addiction, alcohol and drugs, debt, homelessness, erratic behaviour, and non-wrestling violence.

Goodbye Samoa Joe, Hello Morishima!!!!This event marked the kickoff of the 5th Year Festival, aka The Samoa Joe Goodbye Tour, as well as marked the arrival of Takeshi Morishima onto the ROH landscape. Yes it was Homicide's homecoming after winning the World Title in December the previous year, but that was really afterthought to the two behemoths going to battle in the Grand Ballroom.It also had plenty of tables to satisfy the hardcore need, some crazy FIP influence, bad camera angles, one awesome angle despite the massive logic hole surrounding it, and plenty more! It's “Fifth Year Festival: NYC” and it is your pleasure to hear Jeff & Shane rant about it on this week's edition of AHM!

Presented by IVPVideos.com & @IVPVideos It was another dive into the realm of the G-Funk PPV experiment for Ring of Honor, the 4th thus far, and "Undeniable" makes an interesting case study for why tape delayed PPV was a less than stellar idea of storytelling consistency no matter the quality of the bouts.Recorded in October, but not airing until January, it featured a huge World Title match between champion Takeshi Morishima and challenger Nigel McGuinness, Age of the Fall chaos, and a Tag Title match taped in a different state over a month later.Join Jeff & Shane as they travel back to October of 2007 and explore the night Nigel McGuinness claimed his World Title, Mark Briscoe got wrapped in barbwire, and Generation Next exploded!!Social Media:@AnHonorablePod Twitter & Instagram@thejeffschwartz Twitter & Instagram@hagadornshane Twitter & Instagram-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=UNDENIABLE PPVTaped: 10/6/07Aired: 1/18/08Inman Sports ComplexEdison, NJDark Tag Team MatchAlex Payne & Ernie Osiris vs. Mitch Franklin & Rhett TitusPPV CARDTag Team MatchThe Age Of The Fall (Jimmy Jacobs & Tyler Black) vs. The Vulture Squad (Jack Evans & Ruckus)Singles MatchDaizee Haze vs. Sara Del ReySingles MatchBryan Danielson vs. Chris HeroSix Man Tag Team MatchDelirious, El Generico & Kevin Steen vs. The Hangmen Three (Adam Pearce, BJ Whitmer & Brent Albright) w/ Shane HagadornSingles MatchAustin Aries vs. Roderick StrongROH World Title MatchTakeshi Morishima (c) vs. Nigel McGuinnessBONUS MATCHESSingles MatchClaudio Castagnoli vs. JigsawLoser Of The Fall Leaves ROH For 60 Days MatchNo Remorse Corps (Davey Richards & Rocky Romero) vs. The Resilience (Erick Stevens & Matt Cross)Anything Goes MatchJay Briscoe vs. Necro Butcher

In the latest episode, Hi5ame discusses Departure 2018, GHC JuniorTag League, the return to wrestling of modern-day legend Takeshi Morishima and all the news from Pro Wrestling NOAH.

We look at an amazing Ring of Honor match between Takeshi Morishima and Bryan Danielson which completely shows how brawling can fit into the context of a traditional wrestling. Also, how awesome was 2007 for Bryan Danielson!

We take a break from the history of TNA to invite the world famous "Nut Bunnies" on the show to pay tribute to TAKESHI MORISHIMA! The greatest ROH Champion of all time! This Morishima sized episode clocks in at almost 3 hours long as we discuss his match with Samoa Joe and his title reign as well as a bit about the overall ROH product at the time. Join us for a match by match history of Morishima as ROH champion!

This week, the boys welcome Matthew Brian Cohen (Lifescrapers: Tall Stories of American Lives, Cool Shit/Weird Shit at UCB) to the show to discuss a match that he saw in person: the 2007 Ring of Honor Manhattan Mayhem II bout that pitted Bryan Danielson against Takeshi Morishima in what many called the Match of the Year. Then, the conversation gets heated when Joey and Nick show Stephen the clip where Vader’s eye pops out of its socket during a match with Stan Hansen - a thing that Stephen absolutely refuses to believe happened. Also, everyone sings Daniel Bryan’s praises and reflects on how over he and the “Yes!” chant were (and still are) in WWE. Plus, Stephen tries to get everyone to like Poke from LA’s Ohana Poke.

This week on Wrestling Omakase we talk some really good matches and, uh, some really bad ones too! If you haven't listened to a 5 Matches episode yet, every week John and the guest each choose 2 matches to watch and talk about on the episode. Then we each choose a third match, which is put up to a vote on the @wrestleomakase Twitter account, letting the listeners choose our fifth and final match of the week. It's a fun retro format featuring all sorts of different wrestling!As we talk about on the show, Wrestling Omakase is about to launch our brand new Patreon! We go live on Monday June 1st at www.patreon.com/wrestlingomakase.

Join us on our new journey!John is joined by first time guest Chris (@funkyassdg), co-host of the Bad Wrestling Podcast (@badwrespodcast). We talk a little about recent events and also just playing Yakuza and EWR/TEW to get through the current quarantine, plus briefly discuss an absolutely amazing opening segment of Friday Night Smackdown from this past week. Once that's out of the way we get into our five matches of the week, and boy are they a doozy:1.
