Resistance Pro Fatal Fourway Tag Title Match

I came across this while searching for Sugar Dunkerton matches and found this gem that features him and Josephus from Nashville.  The rest of the guys while impressive are unknown to me.  Full card after the jump.

Best of CM Punk in IWA-Midsouth

Because best in the world.
And because Eddie Guerrero, Chris Hero, and an unmasked Rey Mysterio.
And because no such video of Rocky exists.

Jay Briscoe vs Mark Briscoe (ROH)

Filmed at the one year anniversary show in Queens, NY in 2003.

So Long Crossfire and Thanks for the Memories

Finding fellow wrestling fans is a pretty special thing.  You can make polite conversation with folks that "used to watch when Stone Cold was on TV" but the hardcore fans are a different lot.  And even then they come in 100 different varieties.  One such fan is a fellow co-worker of mine who introduced me to Crossfire which held bi-monthly shows at the Tennessee State Fairgrounds in Nashville and it became the first live indie show I ever attended.  Its here I got to see Bret Hart and Roddy Piper work the mic in the ring, where I got to see Goldust, Kid Kash, and Colt Cabana on the same card, watched hardcore hall of famer Jerry Lynn bid farewell, discovered the in-ring art in motion that is Jessicka Havok, and enjoyed every minute of King Shane Williams playing one of the best heels I've ever witnessed.  Last night it was brought to my attention that Crossfire has cancelled their next big upcoming show (to feature Jake Roberts, DDP, and Matt Hardy!) and has folded the organization.  Details beyond that are kind of shaky.

Crossfire had something for everyone and their shows drew great crowds (especially compared to the dismal attendance at some of the most highly regarded indie promotions' shows - no shade thrown, just making a point).  From the outside looking in you could see that their business model wasn't sustainable.  With shows only being held every other month and depending on the draw of big name twilight year wrestlers I suppose we're lucky it lasted as long as it did.  But while it was here it was a beautiful thing and I'll always rather have a flash in the pan that's great in its moment versus one that slowly and unceremoniously fades away.  Marcus Pastorius, owner of Crossfire, deserves an elongated "Thank You Mar-cus" chant and a handshake of gratitude from every fan in the Nashville area.  Thanks for the memories.

Mark Henry vs. The Undertaker (WM22)

I'm here for the hoss fight casket match.

And if my excitement for Mark Henry and posting this somehow means that Deadman shows up for the 2/11 Raw in Nashville I'm taking ALL the credit for making that happen.

Dean Malenko vs Eddie Guerrero (ECW 1995)

So the last page of postings have been WWE related.  Mostly Punk-Rock.  I swear I'm scaling it back.  So here's a fitting transition not about the guy who doesn't deserve the title.

This was Eddie and Dean's last match in ECW before they jumped ship for WCW.  Dave Meltzer may have never given the 5-star nod to anything ECW ever did but this is mat technician wrestling in one of its finest moments.
