    Did Snuka have any good matches at all during that period?
  3. flyonthewall2983
    That match came after this one.

    A jobber tournament would have been an interesting idea, but not sure how it would end.

    Anyone know how to sync the two up?
  7. flyonthewall2983
    Guys now in general are much smaller it seems.

    I'm surprised that they didn't get him in any sooner. Wasn't he the host of one of the first ceremonies?
  9. flyonthewall2983
    Is he doing commentary over the match or just talking about it?

    Expect a big ECW content dump soon

    I enjoyed reading it too. I've seen the Show/Mayweather match a few times and later wondered if it ever occurred to Wight to shoot on him. That whole trial-and-error process of trying to become a boxer himself is what likely put it out of his mind, and I'm sure Mayweather and his people were well aware of that.

    Actually, they had it until Survivor Series when their team came out to it.

    I would have given him 4 or 5 to give Heenan a few of those nervous moments followed by relief. But when he comes out is great enough as it is, as was Heenan's reaction. Having seen the match so many times I don't think it's the single-greatest performance of his but it's certainly up there. Can't help but think McMahon would have been so much better instead of Monsoon that night, who flubs a few lines and goes into his hyper-face cheerleader mode a couple times too.

    I don't keep up, but the only thing I would guess for certain is that Trump will show up. Probably not in an angle, but a cameo appearance be it live or via satellite.

    I thought he was better in WCW, in some respects. Especially when he turned the more heel-ish side of his persona down and talked more as the voice of experience. I've listened to some of his last matches with the company, and it's probably good that he left when he did because I think he probably would have been made to be a watered-down version of who he'd been 10 years before, rather than closer to himself. He was pretty good with Ross, though with knowing that there was tension you can definitely hear it in their announcing sometimes. That's either good or bad depending on one's taste, as opposed to being outright horrible. I listened to a shoot with Ventura from '93 where he calls Ross some pretty awful things, so I guess it was true. I'd love it if Ventura got on Ross' podcast or the other way around, so we can hear them talk about that time. I think Ross has said he wished he'd been more professional during that period, so they both share some blame on it.

    What is it with them doing mini-angles after the show that would air on PTW or the syndicated shows? Like the Savage/Liz wedding party or here with Hogan getting burned backstage?

    Probably the only time Vince's "sports entertainment" experiment has worked, IMO.

    Didn't SummerSlam draw better that year than WrestleMania, PPV-wise? Things historically began to slip after his appearance on Arsenio Hall denying he took steroids.
  19. flyonthewall2983
    At least Valentine had music in '91.

    I think Rude will be a lock for next year because Minnesota. Freebirds definitely. Hansen would be cool, but it seems that they limit the local thing to just one inductee. I would imagine WWE would have cold feet about Patera because of the McDonald's thing. Unless there's a blindspot I've missed, he has not been someone they've reached out to for things like documentaries or such before.

    Was there ever any indication by Meltzer or someone else on why they turned heel? I watched the Dream Team match in Boston yesterday and a few other things before that, and my impression was they were on their way to becoming a very popular team.
  22. flyonthewall2983
    "Razor Ramon" is in this match, but oddly Scott Hall has yet to ever be in a Rumble match himself. He was in title matches for the previous four years.
  23. flyonthewall2983
    Guys on Reddit were talking about how he was flubbing people's names during the '92 Rumble when it was on the Network. Of course I've noticed it over the years, but it's not as bad because Heenan would come in and correct him in a way that befit their chemistry. That WWE.com article in the first post is pretty great, btw. Interesting to hear about how much he still cared about the business when Ross came in.

    Umaga squashing Roddy and Dusty was pretty bad.
  25. flyonthewall2983
    Gotta wonder when the next big content dump will be, like it was with the territory stuff a few years ago. I'm hoping they put up more MSG/Boston/Philly shows. Is there a list somewhere of all the cards that aired on 24/7 and WWEClassics?
