CHOP-UH! RUSH-UH!: April 2007
http://choprush.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
Oft-infrequent, grapple-happy chatterings. Monday, April 23, 2007. WWF Survivor Series (23.11.1989). So it's the Thanksgiving night tradition, and in keeping with the theme we get some majorly fun promos about what all the wrestlers are thankful for to kick things off. I love 80's pay-per-view promos. The Dream Team (Dusty Rhodes [c], Tito Santana, The Red Rooster and Brutus 'The Barber' Beefcake) vs. The Enforcers (The Big Boss Man [c], The Honky Tonk Man, Bad News Brown and Rick 'The Model' Martel).

CHOP-UH! RUSH-UH!: January 2007
http://choprush.blogspot.com/2007_01_01_archive.html
Oft-infrequent, grapple-happy chatterings. Monday, January 29, 2007. ECW On Sci-Fi (23.01.2007). I'm not sure why I noticed this but this was 14 years to the day of the ECW vs. WWA Battle Of The Belts show (Cactus Jack vs. Eddie Gilbert). Other wrestling events on January 23rd: WCW's Clash Of The Champions XXXII (Giant and Ric Flair vs. Hulk Hogan and Randy Savage) and the WWF's 2000 Royal Rumble (Triple H vs. Cactus Jack). The more you know! So they meander about doing nothing of consequence until Sabu ...

CHOP-UH! RUSH-UH!: June 2007
http://choprush.blogspot.com/2007_06_01_archive.html
Oft-infrequent, grapple-happy chatterings. Tuesday, June 19, 2007. TNA Slammiversary (17.06.2007). The best pay-per-view TNA has done in absolutely ages. The Latin American Xchange (Homicide y Hernandez) [w/ Konnan] vs. Rhino and Senshi [w/ Hector Guerrero]. This was just a nice little match to get the crowd going (and man, were they ever going! At 8:24 of a fun opener. X-Division Title: Chris Sabin (c) vs. 'Black Machismo' Jay Lethal. I just noticed Earl Hebner was rocking the old-school blue shirt with...

CHOP-UH! RUSH-UH!: September 2009
http://choprush.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Oft-infrequent, grapple-happy chatterings. Tuesday, September 29, 2009. Posted by LJM at 3:50 PM. Friday, September 25, 2009. The Glory of YouTube. Yeah, YouTube's pretty amazing really. Daily Motion, to give it its due, is also pretty damn stellar. Music videos, on-air gaffes, long forgotten 80's cartoons - it's all there. And wrestling. Lots and lots of professional wrestling. Nailz vs. Ken Wayne (WWF SummerSlam Spectacular, August 11th 1992). Hey, it's Jumpin' Joey! This is bound to be a squash but it...

CHOP-UH! RUSH-UH!: September 2006
http://choprush.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html
Oft-infrequent, grapple-happy chatterings. Monday, September 18, 2006. WWE Unforgiven (17.09.2006). WWE Intercontinental Title: Johnny Nitro (c) vs. Jeff Hardy. This match helped underscore a few different things for me. Firstly, it cemented my belief that Johnny Nitro without Joey Mercury just isn't entertaining. As much as I want to like him, this match and his series with Carlito and Shelton Benjamin (who? Umaga vs. Kane. WWE Women's Title: Lita (c) vs. Trish Stratus. Randy Orton vs. Carlito. Intercon...

CHOP-UH! RUSH-UH!: October 2006
http://choprush.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html
Oft-infrequent, grapple-happy chatterings. Saturday, October 28, 2006. I don't usually watch SmackDown! But when my bona-fide 100% mark of an uncle comes into my room at half-past midnight and excitedly asks "Do you want to see an I Quit match? The show it turns out began at midnight and here's what I missed:. MVP vs. Kane. Can't say I'm upset. MVP disqualified in 2:51. I have to wonder what kind of General Manager would spend all that money on MVP. What a sucky investment. Elijah Burke vs. Vito. Gregory...

CHOP-UH! RUSH-UH!: October 2008
http://choprush.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Oft-infrequent, grapple-happy chatterings. Wednesday, October 08, 2008. WWE No Mercy (05.10.2008). In typical WWE fashion, this was like most of the cards I watch with no anticipation or excitement going into it - surprisingly good. If I think a card looks bad on paper, it tends to be good (perhaps from lowered expectations) and No Mercy was another such pay-per-view. Posted by LJM at 7:13 PM. 26 years old and utterly lost. View my complete profile. Jujigatame Time Puro Review. NJPW G1 Climax 1992.

CHOP-UH! RUSH-UH!: December 2008
http://choprush.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Oft-infrequent, grapple-happy chatterings. Tuesday, December 02, 2008. WWE - Survivor Series (23.11.2008). So when I saw the pseudo-spoiler "Survivor Series 2008, was awesome! I was excited to see the show. I had a feeling Edge was showing up based on that picture that did the rounds on Sunday and then accidentally saw a picture of John Cena with the World Title belt. Such is not being able to see the show live. Mickie James, Jillian Hall, Candice Michelle and Kelly Kelly vs. Michelle McCool. And winning...

Oft-infrequent, grapple-happy chatterings. Sunday, October 21, 2007. PCW - Pro Championship Wrestling Live! 366 miles. 10 hour round-trip with no iPod. Freezing your tits off in the middle of nowhere, long after midnight and with no plan for the evening. Four guys sleeping on the floor of a cheap Birmingham travelodge designed to fit two. Somehow spending about 20 whilst eating practically nothing all weekend. It can only be a road trip to see some shitty indy wrestling! Spud vs. Derice Coffie. As for th...
