About Chronowrestlethon

At this time I'd like to talk a little more about the Chronowrestlethon concept. I should have done this yesterday before I made two big review posts but oh well. Think of it as being like when TNA tapes so far in advance that things get messed up chronologically.

Of course chronologically is the key word here. What I intend to do is post reviews of shows in chronological order. I will watch the A-shows and the pay per views. I will skip B-shows(like Xplosion, Superstars, Main Event etc.) because I only have so much time to watch this stuff, and most of what happens on shows like that are inconsequential to the big picture.

I wanna watch the shows chronologically because I feel like it gives you the best experience. If wrestling is to be considered a form of fiction and to be taken seriously, then you need to look at a story from the beginning, middle, and end, and judge it based on that. Therefore reviewing random wrestling PPVs without considering the angles and matches shot for TV that build to the PPV is pointless.

So I've got two of the weekly NWA-TNA PPVs down, and 109 to go. After I finish reviewing those I am open to suggestions on what to do next. I've already gotten requests for MTV's short lived Wrestling Society X and the Jesus based promotion Ring Of Glory. I'd like to avoid reviewing every WWE Raw/Smackdown/PPV because I've already watched those shows over the past few years. At the midway point I came up with the concept for this blog, but by then it was too late to go back and start over aain. So hit me up in the comments if you have any suggestions for future review projects(preferably short and obscure, as that's what I'm into these days).
