Watch Great Wrestling
This Is Awesome is an informal research project with no methodology asking the question: What makes a great pro wrestling match and why? We watch the best wrestling matches of all time, suggested by you, and then we show it to a non-fan to see if it holds up!
To quote VKM, “This is such good ‘stuff.’”

The format and idea behind this podcast in genius. I haven’t heard a bad episode yet and the quotes and guests are always spectacular. In regards to a recommendation, how about what is widely considered as “The Greatest Wrestling March of All Time;” MISAWA v KAWADA - June 3, 1994. *update 6/8/2023* adding to my review because this feed hasn’t updated in quite a while since the rebrand. This was, unequivocally, my favorite wrasslin podcast when content was being churned out and if it has ended, it is truly a shame. If by chance you come across this podcast in your search for content I truly cannot recommend it enough. There are plenty of great matches that the guys never made it to, including but not limited to; 2003 - Misawa v Kobashi, August 93 - Dr Death v Kobashi, ‘89 Tenryu v Jumbo (the birth of the Royal Road Style?) April 91 - Tsuruta-Gun v Super Generation Army (possibly my favorite match of all time.) If the pod is over, thank you guys for the content over the years. Listening to the Misawa v Kawada episode again now.
Talkin' 'bout one of the best wrestling pods!

TIA was integral to me staying sane throughout 2020, well structured, great hosts, great guests, just an all round delight! Don't sleep on the off season shows either! Consistently breezy, informative and hilarious. 2 notes for the boys: 1: Talkin' 'bout dropkicks is a good idea for more offseason episodes, but it needs a bit more structure. the problem with the OG ep. is your all kinda just floundering to remember who did good dropkicks, maybe start with 10-20 different "wrestler with the best X (move)" and do a mini rank em? 2: im gonna nominate Ibushi v. Cody v. Omega from NJPW King Of Pro-Wrestling 2018, mostly cause its a 3-way match and i just think that's neat.

You guys are so consistently funny and insightful! I’m glad I’ve added you to my rotation, really helps me appreciate great matches more and more. My favorite episodes so far would be the Tiger Mask/Dynamite Kid ones, which actually helped me pull the trigger on getting NJPW World, so thanks for that! Keep on rockin and keep on talkin My recommended match would have to be Pete Dunne vs Tyler Bate from NXT Takeover Chicago. Pete is my favorite wrestler, and this match is one I can watch any number of times and never get tired of it.
