Speaking of best-of series's and Sami's...
The series of matches between Sami Callihan and Drake Younger are a brutal mix of performing arts and insane indy wrestling nonsense; the opposite of what I said the Zayn/Cesaro match was. But you know what, Callihan/Younger is in another league all by itself.
This Guerrilla Warfare match at All Star Weekend 9 (the first Pro Wrestling Guerrilla show I ever saw, so it holds a special place in my heart) is the third and final match of the Callihan/Younger series in Pro Wrestling Guerrilla and it also serves as a #1 contenders match for Adam Cole's PWG championship the next night. A Guerrilla Warfare match in of itself is an anything goes, hardcore match - a match that neither of these two are new too as both Callihan and Younger have cut their teeth in many violent promotions including CZW, BJW, IWA:MS, and IPW.
This match takes the cake for my favorite hardcore match of the year hands down. It's got chair spots, trashcan spots, staple guns, thumbtacks... hell, even the streamers get hardcore. The best part is that this is not some random slugfest, it's a big blow-off match between two heated rivals who just want to hurt each other. If you wanna get a better feel for this match I would recommend checking this video out that also features the first two matches boiling up to this match (it's a music video but the music doesn't suck).
