Looking for something to watch?

I've compiled a list of every CHIKARA match from the Pre-Shutdown era (2005-2013) that I've given 4 stars or higher. 65 matches in all.

All ratings are my own. Opinions may vary.

@NintendoAmerica Still waiting on Wind Waker HD and Twilight Princess HD.

[TheMetalSmark @TheMetalSmark]

@MrTonyMaurizio @jcwlunacy @THEVinceRusso Busting out the Tim Lincecum jersey too.

That's how you know Vince isn't messing around.

[TheMetalSmark @TheMetalSmark]

@JeffLane22 I think it looks good on you. Keeping it fresh from the classic Mass Effect cap.

I'm fascinated that you first got into Pokemon in your 40s(?). Most people get into it while in grade school. I think you're the only one I've ever known that got into it later in life.

[TheMetalSmark @TheMetalSmark]

@doebulus45884 @Stealth40k Admittedly haven't played it yet. Looking forward to it.

But I'm cautious because it appears to still have one foot in the Wild series with the ability to do things in any order, skipping sections, crafting, etc. It's like they couldn't just give us a pure traditional Zelda.

[TheMetalSmark @TheMetalSmark]

@mike_sal @spatzzzleee @Stealth40k False.

Ocarina Of Time was the 4th best-selling game on N64

Wind Waker was the 4th best-selling game on Gamecube.

And that's just the 3D games.

Nintendo spent 30 years establishing what a Zelda game is. It wouldn't have been their 3rd biggest franchise if it didn't sell.

[TheMetalSmark @TheMetalSmark]

@TECKBAT @Pirat_Nation @Xbox @asha_shar Here's the problem.

The people that DO choose to use it will render this disc useless. What's stopping them from selling the disc? Then if someone buys that disc second hand, it won't work.

This would effectively destroy the used market. You'll never buy with confidence again.

[TheMetalSmark @TheMetalSmark]

@Pirat_Nation @xbox @asha_shar

If this is a fake rumor, you guys need to clear it up immediately.

Xbox wants to break your discs after install so you can't resell them?

So now we won't be able to buy used discs in the future for fear they may not even work?

ABSOLUTELY NO

PLEASE CLARIFY!

[TheMetalSmark @TheMetalSmark]

@Nintendo @NintendoAmerica Give us Twilight Princess HD and Wind Waker HD on Switch.

[TheMetalSmark @TheMetalSmark]

@Stealth40k @NintendoAmerica @Nintendo

Give us Twilight Princess HD and Wind Waker HD. That'll make up for it.

I've been waiting 5 years, watching your Directs just to see those releases, and it never happens.

[TheMetalSmark @TheMetalSmark]

@GoochNorth @Kephfas Never said they didn't. Of course they did.

I'm saying that it was an era when the show was written and produced like an actual television show. The show as a whole drew. The characters. The storylines.

Val Venis was an act that fans enjoyed. Let's not act like they didn't.

[TheMetalSmark @TheMetalSmark]

@GoochNorth @Kephfas People bought tickets to see the show as a whole. Not just one guy. Almost everyone was over, Val Venis included.

People liked characters. Val Venis was a character.

[TheMetalSmark @TheMetalSmark]

@Tubi @worried_moon Please fix the issue with the 10-second countdown not appearing before ad breaks.

It just jumps to the ad now with no notice. Incredibly jarring for movies.

[TheMetalSmark @TheMetalSmark]

@RazorFist Would love to hear the testimony of your entire faith journey. From growing up, to falling out, and returning.

Also interested in when you stopped listening to black metal. I stopped years ago upon returning. Used to struggle with the temptation quite a bit.

God bless you.

[TheMetalSmark @TheMetalSmark]

@BackTheBunny I read this in Max Payne's voice.

[TheMetalSmark @TheMetalSmark]

@TheEmilJay Seeing Jim Johnston dressed like this and playing live with all that attitude feels like discovering a rare Pokemon card.

[TheMetalSmark @TheMetalSmark]

Hearing this really makes me wonder what it would've been like to hear Vince Russo do commentary for CHIKARA back in the day.

I think he would've popped huge for the likes of Archibald Peck, Dragon Dragon, and Larry Sweeney.

The Shocker ELECTRIFIES Caleb Konley, The Outbreak, and Barnabas the Bizarre!

Vince Russo: That’s legal in Memphis!? Wait a minute. What is this? What is… I’ve never seen this before. What is this? What is this shenanigans? What the heck was that!? What is that?

✝️ WELL, THIS JUST GOT BIBLICAL.

🌗 Did you know this about the moon??

[TheMetalSmark @TheMetalSmark]

@FinalBossXL @therealec3 @THEVinceRusso This puts a smile on my face.

But man, I kinda hope Vince doesn't start bumping. Don't want him getting hurt.
