SHIMMER Vol. 6 DVD review

[Hail Sabin]

I will start with the bonus matches

Josie vs. LuFisto
This is my first time seeing LuFisto wrestle and see looked really good. It's pretty much a squash but a fun squash that makes Josie also looks good.

Dangerous Angels vs. Melissa/Nattie
A damn good tag match between these 2 teams that is one of the better matches on the DVD. The legwork by Melissa/Nattie and Danger's selling really add to the match. More on Danger's great selling later.

The bonus matches run 24 minutes total.

Main Show

Volume 6 opens with a great 3 minute promo by Danger getting you hyped for the Pure wrestlng match later on the show.

O'Neal and Deeb kick off the wrestling with a much better match here then on the previous volume. Both woman looked good, O'Neal continues to improve ever Volume and Deeb seemed to as well.

Kong/Lexie/Malia vs. Josie/Rogers/Ariel
Like I have said before, The Experience are so damn great in tag matches. The heels get the crowd into the match and Kong is just a monster in this match. Kong kills all 3 faces thru out the match but the faces show a lot of fire and just kept fighting back til the end, a great tag match.

Lei vs. Roxx
Good match, that starts the main event push of Roxx.

Nikita vs. Haze
A great way for Nikita to leave SHIMMER. Nikita shows her evil side and turns heel early in the match. A great back and forth match that lets Nikita leave on a high note. Also it features a Tornado Daizee cutter and Nikita's great counter for the heart punch.

Pure wrestlng match Knox vs. Danger
Note: Prazak has a surprise guest do color for this match. The match features the great chain wrestling of the first match with the Pure rules adding to the match. As I said earlier Danger does an awesome job of selling her knee and in this match she sells the best anyone has ever done in SHIMMER. This match is better then their first meeting and for Pure wrestling fans this needs to be watched.

MHWC vs. Sara/Mercedes
This match is a showcase for the MHWC showing off their tag skills and also serves to build up the Del Ray/Mercedes series.
I also will say this match is not your basic formula tag match in a good way. Watch it for the tag team 101 from the MHWC.

LWS Melissa vs. Mschif
This match is better then the falls count anywhere on first viewing, Match of the night! Just watch this match!

Roxx cuts a promo saying her goal is the main event and Knox
puts over her victory tonight. Main runs 2 hours 40 minutes.

Volume 6 is much better then chrisv said it was and this show is another SHIMMER DVD that is a must buy!

Good review. Hope my copy shows up later today so I can see it for myself.

Just got threw watching the DVD. Lots of sick looking submissions and moves in the MelissChif match. Overall I thought it was a good show, but things don't really start to pick up until the Nikita/Daizee match started.

My copy arrived today, which i shall be watching tonight after work. It's awful having to wait months between releases, but it does make you want to see it more desperatly though after waiting so long.

Got to agree about the show not really moving until the the Nikita Vs Daizee match. I was really impressed with Nikita, I can see what the WWE see in her, good match from both girls.

Again Knox was superb and fits well with Allison's technical skills.

The best part of the show for me was the Tag match, Lacey and Rain showed some great double-team moves. Hopefully this will be the start of a tag division and who knows maybe there will be Shimmer titles.

Melissa Vs MsChif was a lot of fun, it's just interesting to me to see how many new ways Melissa can bend MsChif around the ring or ring-side objects. Good way to finish the feud.
