Phil, Eric, KrisZ, Dylan Waco, Goodhelmet and Bix did PART 2 of their Hall of Fame discussion, covering Japan, Mexico, Europe, Islands, and Non-Wrestler candidates. Show went about 2.5 hours and has tons of great discussion about all the candidates, and some pretty sound arguments for and against candidates. Awesome show.

Dick Togo vs. James Mason ASW 8/2/11 - GREAT
Pretty cool that Togo's wrestling encore is working European shows in front of enthusiastic little kids. James Mason is this amazing wrestler who showed up a couple of times in the beginning of the decade, worked one TNA PPV match and fell off the radar. He has been all over youtube lately, and he feels like one of the best wrestlers in the world. He is as slick on the mat as Johnny Saint or Johnny Kidd, but still athletic enough to move around the ring and take big bumps. Togo is working as a foreign evil heel, taunting the fans, talking trash, cheap shotting Mason. Mason is great as a babyface using guile and slickness. Early stuff is very cool with Mason working over Togo's wrist. Togo keeps it pretty simple, nothing flashy, but really plays the crowd well. There are a couple of moments where they speed it up, and Mason really hangs athletically with Togo which isn't easy to do. Not really the kind of match which ends up EPIC, but man did I enjoy this, lets hope we get some more Togo Euro footage, I am not ready to say goodbye.
COMPLETE AND ACCURATE DICK TOGO
