Re: DEFCON ARC DISCUSSION THREAD -- UNCUT #7 IS ON THE AIR!!
(Disclaimer: I write my thoughts as I read the card.)
Right to business, then:
Great way to start the show! Awesome build up for the main event to come, I enjoyed the back and forth and Eric Dane's name calling was quite good. I do have one question though what in the world is up with the ninja stars?
The question above was when I was mid way through the segment, wasn't expecting a fight to break out. Loved every bit of this seg. Great work!
Bawbags:
Bawb…what? Second segment I've read from the Bruvs. Excellent work can't wait to see LAR vs. Kendrix at the PPV. Just a random opinion but I would love to see an actual graphic of Mikey Money. Please.
RCR vs. PCP:
LOL David Spade references. Holy shit Rocko Daymon!! (Keep in mind I'm doing my best to keep up with all the wrestlers in Defiance, all the documents in the resource link etc. I just wasn't expecting Rocko on the show, didn't know he was in RCR. Mark out moment.) Love Rocko Daymon and I'm familiar with Kerry Kuroyama, our characters have a lot of past with each other.
DDK:
Carrier pigeon? No seriously, Klein just handed me a pigeon with a note on it. He also said cell phones are Satan.
^ This.
That was a weird damn match.
No Means No:
Curtis Penn's promo is good stuff, I hope there is more to this story later in the card.
Off-Mauve:
Eric Dane has plans for Cayle Murray. Fat Ned Flanders? Damn straight lol. I enjoyed it.
Harmony vs. FDJ:
Square dancing lessons! I am taking notes. This was a great story telling matches. I'm brand new to the characters other than Uncut #9 (I'm trying to catch up) But this was great, especially FDJ leaving the ring after almost destroying Harmony. To be honest when the match first started I was not expecting it to escalate to this. Anyways Harmony picks up the win and I'm sure there will be more to this.
Not Tonight:
Natas being told he can't wrestle tonight. Sucks for him, but in the end better chance he can shut down that punk Sean Jackson at DEFCON.
Territorial Pissings:
Ugh, left out on a cliffhanger! Hate that. Great segment work between Dane and Brunk. The main event is getting more interesting by the moment!
THE HOLLYWOOD BRUVS VS. ANDY SHARP AND L.A.R.
Great match. I'm humbled by the excellent writing I see all over this DEF card and this is just another prime example. I honestly feel out of my league the more and more I read. LAR and Andy Sharp with the squeaker win, is this a foreshadowing of DEFCON?
Old Yeller:
Marshall Owens is such an easy character to hate I love it. Which makes hating Sean Jackson that much easier. Sean Jackson with the obvious statement of his plan to destroy . Solid promo work. Nice finishing touch on the closing, I was wondering how Old Yeller would factor into this promo.
Mushigihara vs. Curtis Penn:
Come on Keebs branch out a little bit! Brown pants man! Brown pants! Strange ending to this match, as I am not too familiar with all the characters involved but it looks like Mushi got saved, but was also upset about the save. Regardless seems like Mushi was going to get the loss in this one. So I dunno… guess more will come from this story.
These are not the droids you're looking for:
On the prowl. Good filler.
Does it really:
Woot! Impulse.. long time since I've read what he's been up to other than Uncut 9. So glad this character is here and hope for the opportunity to work with him in the future. Uh oh, he pulled Curtis Penn out of the back. Curtis Penn vs. Impulse at DEFCON? I'm pumped.
Bronson Box vs. Jack Hunter
Holy shit I just witnessed a murder. DEFIANCE is fucking amazing.
Road to Redemption:
Eugene Dewey making a good promo, I know so little about the history of Defiance but it seems like this gave me a brief glimpse into an old school back and forth battle that's been going on for years, they were even allies at one point? Interesting. Considering the promo Box cut at #9, it's surprising that they were on the same side at any point. DEFCON is growing bigger and bigger in my mind right now.
Won't get fooled again:
Jonny Bedlam:
Ehhhh, I don’t think DEFIANCE is the place for me. I’m gonna have to bow out.
And just like that, Jonny Bedlam is gone.
Andy Murray:
Well… looks like Jonny Bedlam was only here…
He pulls a pair of shades out and slides them onto his face.
Andy Murray:
… for a cup of coffee.
The Who:
YEAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Cut.
Lmao wtf.. I was trying to think what to write about that segment and then I saw this ending.. Interesting tidbit. Definitely gave me a good laugh. Segment was great, I really enjoyed the pep talk from LT. Now… it's time for the main event.
Real quick…
Lindsay Troy:
Why would Andy kill him? It’s not like Bobby’s got red eyes, an endless amount of incoherent, contradictory babble to spew, and the ability to summon thunder with a single clap…
Was part of this statement a Reaper jab or am I just out of the loop, probably just out of the loop but if it was a jab, I like it.
LINDSAY TROY AND CAYLE MURRAY VS. DAN RYAN AND ERIC DANE
The moment we've been waiting for here. Apparently Squidboy is fighting with his brain and Angus doesn't like it. lol. Murray gets that cheap shot in somewhat early to cause Murray's momentum to slow down and the FIST took quick advantage of it. Freaking ninja star reference again! Damn wasn't expecting the way that match ended, really wanted to see Cayle and LT pick up the win. However it was a great match.
OVERALL:
This is my first full card I've had a chance to read, the length was simply amazing and it took me a looonng time to finish but I enjoyed it a lot. Can't wait for my opportunity to participate on it. You guys are all extremely super talented. I'm just going to try and not make a fool out of myself; if I hadn't already.
