This is just about PERFECT!

"Pro Wrestling Guerilla is, in my opinion, the most underrated indy fed in the United States today. They have put on a product that has easily rivaled the quality of ROH or other top indies for years, and have never gotten the respect or recognition that they deserve. Here's hoping this phenomenal DVD set changes that.



Disc One

The Musical - April 17, 2004

1. "American Dragon" Bryan Danielson vs. Samoa Joe - a classic from two young future superstars, this was widely hailed as one of 2004's best matches in the indies



The Reason For The Season - July 10, 2004

Pro Wrestling Guerrilla World Championship Steel Cage Match

2. "Scrap Iron" Adam Pearce vs. "The Future" Frankie Kazarian - Pearce was AWESOME in PWG, and this match shows why.

5. AJ Styles vs Samoa Joe - these two could almost do no wrong at the time.



Guitarmageddon - June 11, 2005

6. AJ Styles vs. James Gibson - AWESOME choice for the DVD. Gibson was, in my book, the best wrestler of any company in 2005 and this match shows why



Free Admission (Just Kidding!) - November 13, 2004

7. "The Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels vs. Jack Evans - a lost classic finally getting more exposure

Disc 3

Based on a True Story - January 13, 2007

Pro Wrestling Guerrilla World Championship Title Guerrilla Warfare Match

15. Joey Ryan vs. Human Tornado - hardcore insanity! Ryan is so underrated when it comes to being an amazing hardcore wrestler, and Tornado showed why he is one of the most popular and fastest rising young stars today.



Holy Diver Down - February 24, 2007

16. PAC vs. Kevin Steen - incredible big man vs. little man match. This is how it's done!



All Star Weekend 5 Night 2 - April 8, 2007

20. PAC & Roderick Strong vs. El Generico & Kevin Steen - brutality and high flying are meshed into one of 2007's best tag team matches.



Giant Size Annual #4 - July 29, 2007

Pro Wrestling Guerrlla World Championship Title Match

21. El Generico vs. Bryan Danielson - what makes this match even more amazing is both men already wrestled hard hitting matches earlier in the evening, and they still came out and put on a MOTYC.





I honestly think this is one of the greatest DVD values of all time. That many 4+ star matches for just a low price just blows my mind. If are even a remote fan on independent wrestling or any of the wrestlers listed, this is a MUST BUY. You will have no regrets whatsoever.



Just a stellar match listing. The only omission I can possibly think of is the Super Dragon vs. Joey Ryan Iron Man match, but since that was an hour long I can understand why it had to be dropped. Gotta save SOMETHING for the next PWG DVD set!"

Great place to start if you are looking to get into indie wr

"Pro Wrestling Guerrilla (or PWG) is an independent wrestling organization based out in Southern California that has been around since 2003. While not as famous as some of the east coast indie organizations, it certainly has developed quite a following in L.A. This box set highlights some of the matches that PWG put on during their first four years. The matches on here (discussed in greater detail in other reviews) run the gauntlet from technical classics, to spot fests, to no-rules brawls. So there is a little something for everybody, and enough variety to keep things fresh. The production values for the DVD are actually fairly decent. Before each match there is a little cut scene showing who is fighting, and (a great feature) you can turn the sometimes funny/sometimes lame commentary on and off. When the commentary is turned off, you feel like you are right in the action - hear the crowd/ref/wrestlers, really a cool feature.



Not to say this set doesn't have its drawbacks. Most of the wrestlers will be familiar to ROH/indie fans (or for those who watched WSX), but only a handful of the wrestlers have made the big leagues as of yet. So if you only watch WWE and are looking to see some of your favorite superstars on here you will be disappointed (CMPunk does show up for one match, but that's it). The packaging is also an issue - they just stack the three discs on top of each other and nothing is included telling you what matches are on the set (let alone what disc). Finally, if you aren't used to indie wrestling the lack of ring entrances, pyros, or half naked women milling about the ring can be sort of jarring.



Overall, if you are a fan of independent wrestling or looking to expand your wrestling viewing beyond WWE/TNA - this is a great set to buy. The price is great for the 9+ hours of amazing wrestling you get. If you like what you see, you can order most of the PWG shows from the company's website.

This is why I love indie!
