I would throw this on the ton of fun pile. Liger was great. The Steiners were their usual suplex machines selves. Power Warrior was ok. That finish was rad. Though Liger escaped death way too much.

This is done pretty well. Storm and Jericho just aren't very good at this stuff yet. They get a huge push out of the gate. I will say after watching a lot of SMW is that the Thrillseekers squashes were a lot of fun. They weren't good on the stick yet. Lance is a natural heel, Jericho with his pandering to the camera makes him a heel. Having Well Dunn as their 1st program was just a bad idea.

[1994-02-20-WCW-Superbrawl IV] Arn Anderson vs Steven Regal
shoe replied to Loss's topic in February 1994
I remember watching this match years ago and thought it was boring as hell. It was probably around 96 when I first saw it, and I was into my Nitro cruiserweight highspot was what I was enjoying at the time. Through the years from watching some 70's style, Lucha , and WOS my tastes have changed. I watched this a while back on the Regal set and was dreading watching it. Well I was wrong. This is a great match. It was tightly worked, told a hell of a story, awesome body part work which I am a huge mark for, and a good finish. I think Regal was a guy that Meltzer and myself didn't quite get when we first saw him. Meltzer calls him a great worker now. I bet if he watched the bout again he would rate it much higher. i know I did.- 29 replies

This could have been more, but what we got was still pretty damn good. Pillman was great here. The structure seemed off to me. Like if we had the Rhodes and Pillman segments witched around and then built to the finish would have been better served. I thought the heels were really good at working Pillman's cut. Orndorff brings an intesnity that is fun to watch. The angle at the end was a nice piece of business to further Sting and Rude feud. Their seemend to be some miscommunication between Sting and Orndorff. Like Sting give Paul enough time to blade. Still I enjoyed the bout at end though it could have been more.

I think JDW is refering to the MX comp.

This was tremendous. Dory though seems like he has no idea what time, or year it is. Heck he's reciting TXDM rules like he did in the 70's.

The Ron Wright promo was damn good. Then DWB comes out and cuts an even better one. I mean DWB might be the most underrated promo of all time.- 9 replies

This was tremendous. The speed of some of the spots is great. Phil hit this on the head. Just a buffet of cool stuff on display.

[1994-02-13-SMW-Sunday Bloody Sunday] Dirty White Boy vs Brian Lee (Chain)
shoe replied to Loss's topic in February 1994
It was a solid chain match. Tammy really makes Lee as a character as opposed to his uber bland baby face character. The finish here is great.- 7 replies

[1994-01-27-WCW-Clash of the Champions XXVI] Bobby Heenan debuts
shoe replied to Loss's topic in January 1994
The heat Heenan gets here is crazy. I know Heenan can't bump but man I think they could have done a huge ppv # bigger than they did, with Heenan manageing a debuting The Giant, Vader, Flair, or debuting heel Savage against Hogan .- 12 replies

This whole segment is pretty great. With each individual bringing something to the table. Where in the hell would Dory find an outfit like that.

[1994-01-29-WCW-Saturday Night] Press Conference: Nick Bockwinkel
shoe replied to Loss's topic in January 1994
I loved this segment. I really wish we would have more of them. Kinda gave wrestling a real edge. Something that would be kinda cool nowadays would to do post fight conferences like UFC except worked angles. I guess they would need to have a clear path where they are going which isn't WWE booking nowadays.- 8 replies

[1994-02-13-SMW-Sunday Bloody Sunday] Chris Candido vs Tracy Smothers
shoe replied to Loss's topic in February 1994
This feud between the 2 is in my opinion the best thing either did in wrestling. This is a good workrate match where both guys go go go. Smothers is a great babyface in SMW. Good stuff from both guys with even greater stuff from this feud. This is a great opening bout in the feud.- 6 replies
