Decided to go to my first AAW show at Hell Hath No Fury, and it didn't disappoint! (though the drive sucked) I really recommend Ciampa vs End, which exceeded my already high expectations. It was much better paced and included a lot of mat grappling in addition to the expected violent strikes.
Gargano/OI4K vs ACH/Vega/Fitchett was awesome too, especially down the stretch.

I really like AAW but I'm way behind. I will be getting Hell Hath No Fury simply because Ciampa/End sounds wonderful.

Sounds like Ciampa will be a regular in AAW going forward, since he's now based in Milwaukee.

He asked if he could call them his home on Twitter, and they said Yes, so I expect so.

Is it just me, or does it look like Eddie Kingston has no right shoulder?
I was in the front line when we battled page 15

Totally. It took me like ten seconds to realise he's standing half side on and his arm is coming out lower and bending back at the elbow.

Thinking of buying the recently released Hell Hath No Fury show. I have seen virtually no AAW, but am interested in Joe vs. Alexander and Ciampa vs. End. How were these matches and the rest of the show to anyone who attended? **** range?

Also, does anyone have experience with their Blu Rays? They are $5 more than the DVD and I am wondering if it is worth the purchase. Thanks.

I've gotten a few of the CHIKARA Blu-Rays. Anniversario: Never Compromise from 2013 worked perfectly for me, but I had a ton of issues with You Only Live Twice from last year. The Blu-Ray Disk never worked in my player, and the replacement disk I got from Smart Mark Video didn't work either. I should note, however, that apparently this particular Blu-Ray release had been plagued with issues ever since the show came out on Blu-Ray (Hearing about it on the CHIKARA101 Board is why I waited so long to actually get it), so maybe it was just this one. Regardless, when Tomorrow Never Dies (CHIKARA's 2014 Season Finale) came out, I opted to by the regular DVD.

In the end, I suppose it's entirely up to you. I don't know if that issue was just with that show, as I've only ever gotten CHIKARA Blu-Ray's.

It's been a long time since I watched Anniversaro: Never Compromise so I couldn't tell you.

both matches were great live. I would put the Tommy End/Ciampa match slightly ahead of Joe/Alexander at a 4 * match. The ACH/Fitchet/Vega match stole the show however.

Just based on how good the dvds look, I would assume the Blu ray would look really good. They're using really good equipment.
