• April: (nU) WWF Iron Man Rock/Triple H from Judgment Day 2000!
More info:
• 3 OSWs in December, yeah! Instead of bringing out Beyond the Mat in January, I pushed myself quite hard to get it out for Christmas. Turned out to be a terrible idea as I burnt out pretty bad. I needed some recovery time (jesus, it took ages for my brain to become un-fucked), and we spent most of Jan/Feb recording new stuff and prepping audio. I'm feeling much better these days, and hey, it's nearly ready!
• If you're wondering about the order of release, Resi 8 DLC needed to be out before Resi 9 (late Feb), and the Paddy's Day Special needed to come out before well, Paddy's Day!
• Resi 8 release was the original Deep Dive, with a new 40-minute DLC review with Matt McMuscles! The original has been off youtube for over a year because it was somehow marked as "safe for kids" (despite this M-rated horror game review being age-restricted!) so it was a great opportunity to re-up AND add more. I'm really happy with that DLC section, lots of laughs and I learned things too - if we ever cover Resi 9 and OOC's unavailable, I'll ask Matt if he wants to join 🙂
• nU Axcloosiv: War Games?! We've decided to offer match reviews as well as film reviews on noggerU, because i think you guys would prob wanna see them more, and it'll also be a shorter production time! War Games is the guts of half an hour, and jeez we will definitely have to go to his era of WCW in the future, wowzers. You can watch it here now! (27m)
• nU Axcloosiv: Rock/Triple H Iron Man!
Our next match review is the Iron Man match from Judgment Day 2000! Dan from Bournemouth chose the longest match he could think of 😂 The vid will be ~45 mins! I'll being doing final editing on this just as soon as I finish editing the first ep of the new arc. I've no plans to release these match reviews publicly, they're just for ye guys as a thank you for supporting us 💚
• Moving Target is the first Paddy's Day special since Fatal Deviation (March 2018) - I'd gotten a copy of the DVD iso back in 2021 I think, so a svelte 5 years later we made it happen! I also got the French DVD which is somehow sharper but more artifacty; so in motion actually looks worse to me. Have a look at Deirdre's hair:
Whatcha think? I ended up using a combination of the USA DVD and upscaled footage by Nick Acosta. Moving Target is abandonware (the director put it up on Archive.org if u wanna download it?) Anywoo I'm real happy how it turned out. Even if the movie was gash, there's plenty of scope for fun conversation. I got nice comments about our Roger Corman retrospective, are there any Roger Corman movies that would make for a good OSW review?
• Golden Noggers is out right NOW here on NoggerU! (99mins)
It'll go live for everyone Sunday! GNs are actually a more complicated edit than an OSW episode (between text, footage & moving elements) but I'm real happy how it turned out - I hope you love it! Having ye guys watch the video on YouTube beforehand helps flag up all the copyright claims so they can be cleared. WWE have gotten pretty strict, they're blocking picture-in-picture clips that are 3-4 seconds long! But we'll get there. This Sunday in fact!
• New Arc in April!
It's almost time! I'm editing it right now, it's coming along amazing. We've never been to this company in this year before. No spoilers, but we'll be releasing the new arc trailer when the episode drops here on NoggerU. So it's a big whammo! I don't like giving estimates until I'm on the home straight, but it should be in 2 weeks. I'm real excited. The new episode looks to be 2 hours, features a big retrospective at the start and several fun bits I can't say or you'll guess it immediately 😂
TL/DR on upcoming:
🍻 Golden Noggers this Sunday (or NOW on NoggerU)
🍻 New Arc trailer in 2 weeks (when everyone finds out what the new arc is)
🍻 First OSW of New Arc also in 2 weeks!
Anywoo, back to editin'! Join us in the live chat this Sunday at the Golden Noggers! Find out if Scott Steiner will finally get that elusive 3rd Roidy Magoo award, and if someone will dethrone OOC for the Mr. OOC Quote of the Year 🙂🍻
See ya in the funny pages! Love, Jay 💚

Well. My dream of invasion arc is dead 💔 but I’m now hoping for aces & eights or Bret v austin arc
Ooh Aces & eights, great idea
"This video is no longer available", T_T sad times!
Which video is this?
I’m surprised nobody guessed Jeff Jarrett’s reign of terror in TNA. Call it the My World arc, it writes itself
I'm thinking that the new arc will be either early-90s WCW or 1996/1997 WWF (specifically the Bret vs Austin feud/ Hart Foundation vs America).
Yall should review some Herb Abrams UWF. Carny bollocks and cocaine!
Thank you for all you do. Have been a loyal and happy fan since 2014. Thanks so much for always making life a little more fun.
The box! THE BOX!
Ah the Iron Man with Triple H and Rock is a great match. Seriously underrated so excellent pick. The ending with Undertaker while botched is just insane for the crowd reaction 😳
Kevin Federline ARC!
Let's go 97 gang warfare
Yo Jay! Watching Survivor Series 90 and always wanted to ask, are you and V1 seriously doctors?? Like MDs?! And if so, why are we not calling you DR. J!? (Philly basketball legend)
Enjoyed the Roger Corman retro as a fan of his, if I remember right you did highlight Death Race 2000 and that is great fun, outlandish political farce and you can definitely relate the competition with wrestling booking, plus you got that mini look at all the modern Races after it.
Lucha Underground dream lives on
My prediction is, osw finally decided to give the world what it's begging for... A recap of the Monday night wars!
Will we be getting a super secret teaser for the new arc Jay? 🤞
Please be Dub C dub
Please, give us a proper hint for the new arc. We NEED it... please.
Any guesses or reckless speculation on what the new Arc is? How many uncovered Pay Per Views was Heidenriech in???
Oh man, sooooo excited for a new arc! *Crosses fingers for not AEW* *crosses more fingers for WCW*
I will never stop hoping for 96/97 WWF (minus the screw job) one day, boys (and 6 percenters)
The new arc will be Ring of Honor 2005, my dad works at OSW and he told me
Well, my dream arc of 1989 WCW is in play so here's to hoping!
Also hoping for this!
