This is breaking the streak of my birthday DVDs a little but there’s a very good reason. The main one being this comes chronologically before the last DVD I got for my birthday. But another reason is that this is probably my favourite SHIMMER event out of the ones I’ve seen and it was only the second one I ever saw. I think that the company has really come into a good position with this set of tapings and they’ve gone in a great direction since. So this is the final Volume taped at this particular weekend and we are “live� from the Berwyn Eagles club as always.

The card is as follows:

*Kellie Skater vs Taylor Made

*Christina Von Eerie vs Mercedes Martinez

*Melanie Cruise vs MsChif

*Athena vs Jessie McKay

*The Knight Dynasty w/Rebecca Knox vs Re-Generation X

*Sara Del Rey vs Jessica James

*Cheerleader Melissa vs LuFisto vs Serena Deeb vs Portia Perez (4-Corner Survival)

*Ayumi Kurihara vs Nicole Matthews

*Seven Star Sisters* vs Daizee Haze & Tomoka Nakagawa (SHIMMER Tag Team Championships)

*Madison Eagles* vs Ayako Hamada (SHIMMER Championship)

Greetings to my loyal readers. As many of you are likely not aware, I turned 21 over the weekend and as one of my many presents, I got three brand new SHIMMER DVDs (which I ordered myself and had to convince the parents that they weren’t porn) and since I am a wrestling columnist then why not share my opinions with the world yet again and review the DVDs each as I watch them. Volume 24 actually comes from the same set of tapings that first introduced me to SHIMMER (Vol. 26 to be specific) so let’s go ahead and get this review going. Just so you know, my reviews are a little different to Arron’s since I have a crazy obsession with ranking things out of
ten (don’t tell my friends’ girlfriends).
