ROI #1 - CZW High Stakes II (9/11/2004)

the show kicks off with a poem dedicated to the memory of those lost on 9/11. i looked up the poet and all his poems that aren't this one are about slaughtering arab people as revenge. a song that sounds like the rite of spring but decidedly is not plays. that cuts into an extremely long montage of spots from prior czw shows set to horrible, horrible nu metal.

Ranking of the Indies #0

Wrestling owns. There are massive gaps in my knowledge of wrestling however. Mexico, pre-2010 New Japan, All Japan, Battlarts, Memphis. But what I'm really interested in is what was going on during the "Monday Night Wars" and the aftermath of the deaths of WCW and ECW outside of the big three. There was a whole world of indie wrestling that was being born in the late 90s/early 00s and I've barely seen any of it. This project is to change that and find once and for all what the best turn of the millennium indie show was.
