Some stuff didn’t get recap posts. I wrote about the IWRG Rey del Ring Part 1 in this news post, and Lucha Memes second empty arena show, KAOZ’s first set of PPVs and Vanguardia’s 06/20 Land of Opportunity show here. I didn’t write a proper recap for the 04/01 Vanguardia but there’s nothing that I thought highly of from that show.
Getting the Google Drive running (before Comcast took away unlimited bandwidth ) took up a lot of my time in May and June, to the point where I’ve spent the start of July at a loss as to what I should be doing. I’ve settled on manually adding the GoogleDrive links to the database so they can show up as links. That’ll take a while.
As mentioned a few times, I’ve lost interest in watching most empty arena shows. I’m going to stick with the Vanguardia shows because there’s at least a wrestler attached to the Paypal donation account there and they’re trying hard to make them interesting. I’m sure I’ll jump on the Mas Lucha channel at some point, like when there’s more than one show there. There will eventually be CMLL & AAA empty arena wrestling but I’m otherwise past the point where I’m going to watch a show just because it exists. There are other people who will tell you if a match is worth watching or not, it doesn’t help you if I’m watching something I’m not interested in.
I’ve been thinking about diving in 1995 CMLL, based on what Roy’s putting up and it’s just another thing that doesn’t have much detailed information on it available. But I’m not sure if I’ll commit to it or when that might start.
Instead of figuring out some way to display grades from those recaps above, here’s a list of the best matches so far this year.
