The Experience
Hey everyone I am Ofek and today I am going to talk about "The Rage" which happened here in Israel and I had the honor to be there and to witness my 1st show in my freakin' life!
Part One: Meet&Greet
I was in the VIP line, so I had the honor to attend in a Meet&Greet before the show!
What a huge honor, it was so great. 1st off to see everyone coming together to the meeting room, than hearing their words, it was great
Than, we had a chance to ask questions, so.. I was the 1st to ask question! So I chose to ask Matt Sydal a question, well. I was kinda nervous because I never stood in front of a wrestler. But I asked him that question "How was your 1st impression here in Israel?, and as a former WWE&NJPW Wrestler, how it feels to be in Israel ?"
He answered " "it feels great to be here in Israel and that the roster we got to the show is great"
I was so happy he answered me.
Than after that, we had a chance to do selfies and to get autographs and buy merch
I feel so blessed that I did selfies with David Starr,Matt Sydal,Bad Bones and Kevin Von Erich!
It felt so great.
When I saw David, I asked him about his favorite match from his career, he said that he love his match with Dave Christ in CZW, well. It was a Great one, I personally loved his match Vs. Shane Strickland in CZW Best of The Best 15' it was the 1st time I saw David Starr, it was thanks to my friend Maor who sent me a match of him.
I gotta say, David is so fantastic, his love to the Jewish culture and to the religion and the country of Israel , It was so awesome to see that.
I bought 2 Bracelets of David Starr, and I made selfie with him. And I gave him to sign on my notebook.
The man is so great
Than, I went to Bad Bones, My Main Main Man!!!, I loved him, I spoke with him on his match on Impact! When he met Josh Barnett, he shared his story on this match, and I spoke with him about it, and it was so good, I said to him that I was impressed with his Spear off the ropes and than I gave him to sign on my notebook too, and after that we made a selfie and than another one with David Starr with us,
OH Thank you LORD!
After I spoke with Bad Bones I went to Matt Sydal, I asked him about NJPW, about who is his favorite wrestler there, he said Katsuyori Shibata, which it was awesome, than I asked him about his thoughts on Hiroshi Tanahashi (My Favorite Wrestler) he shared about how great he's and that he's handsome (Yep He's Handsome)
Than I gave him to sign on my Notebook too, and than a Selfie with him I made too. I felt so awesome.
Before I went to the show, I made another selfie with Kevin Von Erich, and because I was too emotional, I just wanted to take a pic with him and that's it XD I felt so blessed to see him.
Part II : The Event
The event was fun
I sat on the 1st row next to the entrance area, I was so happy sitting there, I was close to their locker room! What an experience!
My Fav. Matches from the show…Not in order
Jurn Simmons Vs. David Starr
The best match of the show as for as I'm concern, it lived up to my expectations
A fantastic match with a great offensive sequences, the ending was very good, even if it ended with a Low Blow and a Pilledriver, it ended in a good way because this 2 guys tore the roof of the arena.
Than after the match, I got a High Five From David!!!! I was so happy
The 2nd match I liked a lot was : Bad Bones Vs. Matt Sydal
Well, it was a good match 2 stars I very appreciate
Bad bones was the heel, as he entered the ring in a BadAss Gimmick and I loved it! He's such a great wrestler.
In the 2nd size. Matt Sydal. Former WWE Tag Champ.. someone I follow since 2009!
It was a huge honor watching this 2 in the ring
The match was a good one as I said, the finish was great. Sydal won,
But you can’t take anything away from Bad Bones
He gave a great show.
Than I got a High Five from Sydal!
I was so excited after that.
I even made a Live Instagram in his match!
The Main Event was Kevin Von Erich's Last Match.. I got goosebumps when I heard his song to be honest, the man is from a family who inspired my granddaddy!
The match was a 6 men tag match
Kevin&Ross&Marshal Von Erich Vs. Jumping Lee&Rabi Swisa&Marty Jannety
I was happy to see Marty on the show, I mean he's a former partner of my Fav. WWE Wrestler ever, Shawn Michaels, and he was underrated wrestler in my opinion…
The match was very fun, it was so good to end the show with Kevin's last match.
At the end of the show, I got a great surprise !
Bad Bones,Jurn Simmons And David Starr came to sit in the fan seats and I was blessed that they were in my area
I made a selfie with Bones And than with Starr
And than.. I spoke with Jurn , I said to him I love his Entrance song and that he&Starr gave a great match. He shook my hand and I spoke with the 3 wrestlers until I had to go home
After The end of the match I had to go home early so I went home, but i went home with a huge smile on my face…why? Damn, my dream just came true! Why won't I be happy ? :-D
Overall thoughts
The Israeli wrestling scene should grow more and more and we doing it thanks to our group and the fan base here.
And the event was great, very Great.. enjoyed every second of it.
Thanks to everyone!
