Piper was good here, but Teddy blew it. It was obvious the story would be Ted working the knee. It seemed like it took him forever to get there. The chair shots were pretty bad. Plus the finish the crowd shit on. Maybe if Dibiase showed aggression working the knee it would have worked. At least they allowed Piper to get the proper face reaction at the end.

It might come across dated, but it does add a little to the match in my eyes.

[1991-04-27-WWF-Superstars] Jake Versus Quake, Oh That Poor Snake!
shoe replied to Loss's topic in April 1991
I thought it was a stupid premise. Though the presentation is so good you care about where the angle is going.- 10 replies

This really had everything. It had amazing heat, great moments, great performances, amazing story telling . Everything just clicked to make this a classic.

[1991-04-19-USWA Texas] Jeff Jarrett vs Tom Prichard (Chain)
shoe replied to Loss's topic in April 1991
I thought what we got was another good match in the series. Though not having blood with this stip is dumb. The angle at the end should have been hot, but the crowd was dead for it.- 11 replies

Hansen really was great in his selling here. He really made the match .

Now someone needs to do a Dallas one.

From the parts of the show that I've listened to dumping the PxP has generated more discussion on the show.

[1991-04-13-WCW-Saturday Night] Ric Flair vs Brian Pillman
shoe replied to Loss's topic in April 1991
I too always wondered why the 90 bout gets more praise because I've always liked this more. These guys were just laying into one another. At this time Pillman might be the best worker in WCW. The announcer's really put over the revenge factor, and Pillman delivers in spades. Just a great match.A real shame for the feud that never was.- 14 replies

A great match and Kawada taking Taue's finish on the floor was brutal.- 19 replies

[1991-04-18-AJPW-Championship Carnival] Mitsuharu Misawa vs Jumbo Tsuruta
shoe replied to Loss's topic in April 1991
Another strong match. The guys seemed to cut a slower pace. Because of this Misawa's elbow 's stand out even more. I also thought the pace helped up the drama. The finishing run was pretty great, and I bought on some if those false finishes.- 23 replies

I thought it was a good work rate match. I loved in true Canadian form Kroffat told the ref to watch the elbow ehh.- 13 replies

This was another great bout between the 2 and it might have been the best. This match up has been delivering in spades . On paper this looked like a good matchup. In reality it is a good match up.

Satanico was awesome here. While Octagon brought nothing.

The highlights look like another killer bout. -
[1991-04-13-WWF-Superstars] Funeral Parlor: Ultimate Warrior & The Undertaker
shoe replied to Loss's topic in April 1991
This really was tremendous. It starts out corny then goes straight for the drama. This was a real intense angle. -
Kinda disappointing match given who was in it and the time it got. I thought it was a solid bout. I liked Embry working over different body parts. It gave him a sense of desperation. I enjoyed the Jarrett/Tojo interaction on the outside. Embry is one skeezie mother.

[1991-04-06-WCW-Worldwide] Ric Flair & Barry Windham vs Ricky Morton & Tommy Rich
shoe replied to Loss's topic in April 1991
A fun match. Those Flair chops were so stiff. Morton look energized working with one of his best opponents. The booking was pretty fucked and hurt a good match.- 10 replies

What a great t.v bout. Pillman still selling the War Games injury. I liked the early going of Pillman going Windham's arm was a cool touch. I loved how Windham cut off Pillman with that nasty elbow to the jaw. Then we had Barry bust out some nifty arm work on Pillman. They also sprinkle in some nice hope spots. Pillman really deserves a main event push at this point.

The Lawler/Embry stuff looks amazing.
