The thread to talk about Ohio Valley Wrestling!

I'm in the middle of catching up on the last 10 episodes or so, which you can watch on their website

Some standouts: Jamin Olivencia, Johnny Spade, Christopher Silvio, Big Robbie T

Jamin and Johnny Spade had a good segment where Johnny called out Jamin for a positive drug test and Jamin said Spade would end up like his father, overdosed and dead.

Christopher Silvio has a good look, Robbie T has an extremely intimidating look, I don't like him in his Jersey Shore look on Impact... He's a different character here.

Kenny Bolin is entertaining in the announce booth. "They have Jessie Belle wearing pig tails and daisy dukes, some girls can wear pig tails and look like a million bucks, like Taeler Hendrix... but you put pig tails on some girls they just look like pigs"

I tried to watch a little yesterday but didn't get past the 1st match. The presentation is just extremely boring and dull. Old NWA wrestling on TBS had better presentation than this.

Very standard cameras for sure, I've got an HDMI cord going to my TV though and it doesn't look too bad.

The biggest problem I am having so far is that there are quite a few non wrestling segments and most these guys are pretty annoying and goofy, the matches haven't been bad though.

So, apparently Rob Terry went 64 minutes in a Royal Rumble type match in one of these Saturday Night Specials OVW did a couple months back, and looked pretty good from what I read.

I can't find video of it anywhere though and surely don't want to pay $12.95 for the DVD through the OVW website :sigh:

There we go, the actual Rumble starts right around the 29:00 minute mark. I wouldn't recommend watching anything before that point.

Doug Williams vs Johnny Spade - Cage Match

Jessie Belle vs Taeler Hendrix - OVW Women's Championship

Eddie Diamond vs Cliff Compton - OVW TV Title

Crimson & Jason Wayne vs Alex Silva & Sam Shaw - OVW Tag Titles

Flash Flanagan vs Rob Terry - OVW Heavyweight Title
