Merry Christmas, folks! Join Ben and Doc for a discussion of an event we went to personally that shaped our fandom and relationship with wrestling. In 2007 JAPW was a large regional indy that competed directly with ROH and had a different roster and a different flavor. We attended this event in early 2007 and wanted to give our modern impressions, as well as illustrate the growth of the indy world at the time.
