[1991-04-12-USWA Texas] Jeff Jarrett vs Tom Pritchard (Tennessee Street Fight)
shoe replied to Loss's topic in April 1991
I thought this was pretty good. It was a good give and take brawl. I absolutely loved the spot where Jarrett gave the Dr. an atomic drop into the ring post. He does a bump into the corner and spins out into a Jarrett clothesline. The hide the chain didn't bother me as much as Loss. Though at 1st the ref would confiscate the weapons . Then we get the hide the chain. The ref still takes the weapons. Then after he lets them use kendo sticks , belts etc. at 1st the hide the chain made sense in how the rules were being enforced. Afterwards though that went out the window. That is until the finish. Still even with the gaps in logic I liked the bout. -
This was short but makes you want to see a longer match between the 2. I also hate matches with a big time stip and don 't get the time to build the drama, thus you minimize the stip.

I didn't detect any laziness in Jumbo, but Cactus sure takes some sick ass bumps.- 18 replies

[1991-03-24-WWF-Wrestlemania VII] Hulk Hogan vs Sgt. Slaughter
shoe replied to Loss's topic in March 1991
They had a lot of good elements in the match like Slaughter working the back, the burying of Hogan in the flag was good,Slaughter still had the turnbuckle bump in his holster. Hogan seemed energized for the match. Still both guys seemed to plod through the match at times . Maybe if they went a tad shorter they could have trimmed the fat. The interference spot was so bad.- 16 replies

The locker room scene was spectacular. -
[1991-03-24-WWF-Wrestlemania VII] Randy Savage vs Ultimate Warrior
shoe replied to Loss's topic in March 1991
What a great match. It had a big time feel to it. Just having Warrior walk to the ring added an element to the match. Sherri was also working her ass off here. Savage was great here and truly is a master at pro wrestling. -
[1991-03-24-WWF-Wrestlemania VII] Rick Martel vs Jake Roberts (Blindfold)
shoe replied to Loss's topic in March 1991
A super fun match. Jake just works the crowd like a master. Martel was good here too. I loved how he thought he knew where Jake was and ran right into the ropes and took a bump right off them. His chair spot on the floor was good too. Martel was a good foil here.- 13 replies

[1991-03-24-WWF-Wrestlemania VII] The Rockers vs Haku & Barbarian
shoe replied to Loss's topic in March 1991
A really fun match and a great way to kick off Wrestlemania. The Rockers are a great team, and Haku/Barbarian are an underrated team when it comes to their work. This has a real fun dynamic. -
I think the last few years I think I prefer watching Backlund matches to Bret Matches. This isn't to slight Bret, but Backlund really is fun to watch.

[1991-03-23-USWA-Memphis TV] Interview: Jerry Lawler & Steve Keirn
shoe replied to Loss's topic in March 1991
Lawler truly is the King of Wrestling in segments like this when he does a master of spin control. Early in the interview he says he would be an artist if he wasn't wrestling. I disagree. I think he would have made millions as a PR guru. -

The voice over interviews of old photos was pretty neat stuff.

Typical Memphis booking which is good stuff. -
I really thought this was great. Both of these guys looked great and I'm looking forward to seeing more. Both guys complimented each other well. 91 so far has been tremendous.

[1991-03-21-NJPW-Starrcade in Tokyo] Ric Flair vs Tatsumi Fujinami
shoe replied to Loss's topic in March 1991
I view this match differently than Loss. I really didn't see these guys clicking with one another. I thought the work wasn't smooth and their was some awkward moments between the 2. Now this finish was a cluster fuck . Doing it in Japan was a bad decision.
