As an admin for Wrestle-Zone UK, Britain's third best professional wrestling web site (after Wrestling X and the new Two Sheds Review web site, of course!), I've been posting reports from the Funk' Conservatory's weekly television show, !Bang! TV. Well, after all this time, I got a chance to see it for myself, thanks to the TWC Spotlight show, and I wasn't too impressed to be honest. While most of the wrestling was passable, and most of the production was also passable, the commentary, a vital part of the show, was definitely lacking. The main announcer was the head man himself, Dory Funk Jr, but it really was annoying to hear Funk commentate on his own match. It really spoiled the viewing, as did the constant promotion of upcoming events and training weekends, which seemed to last for entire matches at times. Dory was shilling so much he made Sanjay Bagga look like an amateur.
