    Caught up on the OTT show from last week, great stuff again. Moose v Devlin was top notch, 2 Unlimited look like they have great potential (and their entrance theme is a real nostalgia buzz), Katey Harvey was a great heel in the women's match and OTT have to make the most of Dunne, Bate and Seven whilst they still can they're great. Also, Angel Cruz's fifteen year old security guards look hilarious in their suits and ear pieces (didn't catch their names if they were mentioned on commentary)

    Some highlights from the show

    Yea I signed up. And yes it has every OTT show ever on there including the shows in Belfast and Galway. Well worth $8/€7 a month.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,867 ✭✭✭Pentecost


    Signed up as well. Looking forward to catching up on some of the previous shows.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,959 ✭✭✭diusmr8a504cvk


    Saw that War Machine & Jeff Cobb vs British Strong Style was confirmed for Wrestlerama which kind of all but confirms that it won't be on Floslam. You'd expect Jordan Devlin to be added too if that's the case provided he's free.

    I signed up myself there have been going since the third show but I see some of the earlier shows are not up don't think they recorded all of them at the start well worth signing up even for the back catalogue.

    I was already excited going to be midst OTT show. But having fallen in love with Dunne on recent weeks, this news makes me, so, so very happy....

    Saw a highlight video of War Machine last week, but thats the extent of it. I'm actually going in blind for a lot of the people on the card, truth be told, but the videos of OTT I've seen makes me confident in the brand, even if I'm ignorant of the individuals :o

    Excellent review Lee. Great detail and your enthusiasm for the show comes across really well, while remaining fair. I thought it was another very enjoyable show, but wouldn't put it as my favourite OTT show. I'd agree with you about Haskins vs Callihan, that match did very little for me. Also, I didn't enjoy the Pastor William Eaver all that much, though that's just personal taste on my part. Also, I thought the main event was a great match but I lost all interest as soon as the ref bump happened. I didn't see any need to do it.

    2Unlimited vs Extra Talent-ed was amazing, and great crowd interaction with them, same for Garrett and Gibson vs the Lads from the Flats. Moose vs Devlin was absolutely brilliant, I'll probably appreciate it more when I watch it back on demand. And the six man was probably the funniest thing I've seen in wrestling.

    Some great stuff lined up for the next Tivoli show and Wrestlerama, every OTT show this year is delivering.

    Free OTT match on youtube from the last Dublin show

    British Strong Style vs Angel Cruz, B-Cool and Tyler "Breeze"

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,867 ✭✭✭Pentecost


    Great, fun match that. Would encourage everyone who hasn't seen it to give it a watch.


  • Registered Users Posts: 409 ✭✭noisenotmusic


    Tonight should be a good one, Smilve vs Haskins and British Strong Style vs Dijak/Callihan/Lee are at least something different. Wonder who Tigre Uno is against too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,804 ✭✭✭Sirsok


    Any one go up last night? Couldnt get anyone to travel from kilkenny to go!

    How was Bobby Georges debut?

  • Registered Users Posts: 409 ✭✭noisenotmusic


    Completely forgot about Bobby George until the personal announcer came out, my only complaint was he was against the jobbiest jobber who's ever been in the OTT ring.

    Also did I miss something with Ryan Smile, the crowd were very much against him in the Haskins match. Bit of a weird ending to that one too.

    The crowd have been turning against Smile for a good while. He turned full heel last month when he hit Riddle with the title.

    I bought a ticket for last night's show but wasn't able to go in the end. It seemed to go very late, main event didn't start until after 11?

    Was that Terry Thatcher Bobby George Jr was against last night?

    It was, he popped up at the contenders event a while back.

    The crowd were giving him fierce stick for being a jobber

    Yeah I was watching the contenders show on VOD and got a surprise when I saw him. I didn't notice him without the skin head though.

    I remember there used to be a guy called Elektro 'The Irish Luchador' on those early Tivoli shows as well. I've no idea who he actually was or what happened to him though.

    Quick one on Irish promotions and training. I did a few sessions with DCW and IwW back in the day, but found there were kids (IE 11-15 years old) training too. Really put me off, especially as at the time I was nearly 30 and was afraid I'd hurt the kids.

    Now I'm 33 and bigger now than I was then and also a lot stronger since I've gotten in to powerlifting. Have been tempted to train again but am even more apprehensive because of my past experience.

    Anyone know of a school in Dublin that does over 18 training only or similar?

    Just watched this. Looked like brilliant fun with everyone doing chase the sun. Agreed on the personal announcer.

    That card is absolutely ridiculous. 10 match show plus at least one Foley segment. The show is going 4+ hrs at least.

    LTSC is there anybody you aren't familiar with on the show?

    4+ hours? Seriously? I wasn't expecting that :o I'm way to use to WWE House shows so that will be an experience.

    Honestly, a lot of them.

    I know Sydal, obviously, from his WWE stint. I've been watching a fair bit of British Strong Style since Dunne and Bates cropped up on TV. I've seen highlight packages for War Machine and Richochet. Seen a little of Devlin (he was in Dublin for WWE's last show too). And I know of Jacobs, Scrull, Storm, Flesch, KotN and havoc by name, but wouldn't be familiar with their work really.

    Oh yea no way this show goes less than 4 hours. ScrapperMania was over 3 and a half and that card wasn't as stacked as this is. It is going to be an amazing show. No way this show doesn't deliver.

    And I can't wait to see what you think of it afterwards.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,101 ✭✭✭brianblaze


    Says a lot about the drawing powerboat Bullet Club that they sold out Scrappermania faster than Filey has moved tickets for this show. Stacked card, can't wait.

    Didn't hear it has been moved from the stadium to the smaller building beside it?

    What??? I dunno if you or asking or telling us if it has been moved to the Ringside club, which is the venue where they held the Contenders show today. Either way, it has not been moved and there has been no talk of it being moved to the Ringside Club.

    I actually looked back on their Facebook thread from Friday where a few had said it but comments were gone so clearly it hasn't been moved. Happy days.

    Parking is poor to be honest, there's no carpark so its on street only. If you aren't there super early it'll be a block or so away you'll have to park.

    Getting closer, so just wanted to do a quick check back on this.

    There's really no carpark nearby, huh? Thats incredibly frustrating. Doesn't look to be much in terms of restaurants either.

    I'm wondering at the moment should I get there for round 5, get a taxi back into town for food and then get a taxi back. Are there any taxi ranks nearby, do people know? Are there "safe" streets and not so safe ones? Not enthralled at the idea of leaving the car on the street :/


  • Registered Users Posts: 409 ✭✭noisenotmusic


    There's no taxi ranks but there's plenty of places for food just down the road at Leonards Corner. For sit down/nicer places there's Bastile, Gailoit Et Grey and the Headline Bar does excellent pub grub type food, there's also the fast food options of Pinheads Pizza (great prices for what you get), Cafe Delice or Three Monks. The local area is perfectly fine for the car being safe.

    Just saw news that South Quay is going to be closed for 8 days over next weekend, whcih is awesome news for those driving up that way :P


  • Registered Users Posts: 543 ✭✭✭spektorfive


    Would I be better off parking in town, then getting a taxi to and back from the show? Is there taxi's easy to get? anyone know the cost? thanks.


  • Registered Users Posts: 409 ✭✭noisenotmusic


    The National Stadium isn't that far out from town, personally I'd walk from someplace like Stephens Green if you want a car park. It's about a 20 minute walk.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,469 ✭✭✭LeeJM


    I got a taxi from the Woolshed out to the NS for Scrapper and it only cost €15 and that was with 4 of us in the taxi. So yea its not crazy far out of town.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,867 ✭✭✭Pentecost


    I live out that direction it's sound as a pound (well as much as anywhere is nowadays). You should be able to flag down a taxi with little trouble. Headline is a good spot, they do a lot of craft beers if you're into them.

    Says loads for Indy wrestling that Foley didn't sell out a show as feature act but the Bullet Club did! (If the venues have similar capacity!)

    So hyped for Saturday!

    It proves my point if nothing else? People nowadays want to see wrestling by good wrestlers, and aren't so into spot appearances by former WWE guys. (I say that as a huge Foley fan)

    10/15 years ago people would have flocked to see Foley more than they would to see Daniels/ Joe/ AJ etc. (Or whoever you would have considered to be the most over Indy guys 10/15 years ago)

  • Registered Users Posts: 543 ✭✭✭spektorfive


    Yeah, Foley lost a lot of shine over the years. Again his not wrestling. I managed to pick up 3 tickets. Can finally being my nephew since it's a 16+ show. His so looking forward to seeing Scurll, Pete Dunne, Ricochet etc. Makes a change from when he was younger and only like WWE.
