What Not To Wear: The Wrestling Edition #1: Eve Torres

It's time to start a new feature on the Majesty of Wrestling. And after thinking about this a while, I came to the realization that the best thing that could be done was to fix the problems we see on big-box wrestling every week. But how to do that? I'm not qualified to be a writer for the 'E (although considering some of the crappy storylines they've been putting out recently, I may need to rethink this opinion.) I can't teach people how to wrestle. So what to do then? Easy. Fix the gear of some people who desperately need it.

The Daily Liger: A Break From the Norm



I've posted a lot of matches in this Daily Liger feature. But every once in a while you need a break. This video here is about the Best moves liger ever did. Watch and enjoy.

The Daily Liger: A Return to America



The funny thing about Jushin Liger's occasional excursions to America is that they are far more about the kind of promotions that he works for, and the people he is willing to face than anything else. This was for JAPW, sort of the place between the deathmatchy bs of CZW (a promotion I will never review on this blog, ever) and the elitist approach of ROH. Watch and enjoy.

The Daily Liger: Open For Suggestions, And A Great Rivalry



I am running out of ideas for this really. So if anyone actually reads this blog or follows me on Twitter, please by all means let me know what you would like to see on this blog or even what you wouldn't. Now then, to the business of the Daily Liger.

This match I linked above is from the WCW\New Japan supershow of 1993, thus making this one of the rare times where WCW fans got to see Liger in his element which was in the Tokyo Dome. Also notable: The Blue and Red alternate liger outfit. Watch and enjoy.

The Daily Liger: One of His Classics

The fun thing about doing this Daily Liger post is to see the classics that I remember as a kid, and reminisce about them. I don't have much to say about this.   Just watch Liger vs Samurai.

The Daily Liger: Another gaijin into the breach

 The funny thing, and the sad thing too, about the WWF in the 1990's was that unless you fit a very narrow box you probably weren't going to get the kind of shot commensurate with your abilities. Proof in point: Owen Hart. Clearly he had the skills to be an important part of the WWF, as evidenced by the fact that he was around for the spectacular Brother vs Brother angle just a few years later. But here, he's not doing that. here he's in the ring with a man who was almost peerless athletically during this time frame. Watch and enjoy.

The Daily Liger: The Grumpy Master

 The interesting thing about this Daily Liger project is to find the matches that aren't super-hyped. I mean everyone can talk about the Liger-Ohtani matches, and I have. But to be honest, the fun is in finding matches like this one. It's also the fun of watching the Untouchables tandem of Liger\Kanemoto grump their way through a match against a pair of young juniors. As I said, grumpy liger is the best liger. try and enjoy.

There are few things that chill my bones, and send a lightning bolt of fear through me, as fast as the rapidly-growing fetishization of men...
