  1. Who on that board isn't an idiot? F4W may be the worst wrestling board on the internet. Think about what that covers.
  2. To be fair, I haven't seen any of either guy for at least 18 months, but the only top class matches London has are 2/3 Falls v Dragon and the street fight with Michael Shane, and I'm not even sure how far they would hold up now, it's been so long since I watched them. I don't think I've ever seen Sydal have an actively bad match, and his match against Rave at Final Showdown is better than anything I've seen London involved in except the two matches I mentioned. Sydal is a much better sympathetic face, sells better and his execution is second to none. London can be pretty good, but he hasn't the personality or x factor to hold my attention. I don't think he ever had the potential of a big fanbase in WWE either, he isn;t as good looking as Sydal (women), his moves look less flashy (kids) and was never particularly 'cool', though to be fair on that count few wrestling characters are. I don't see what unique selling point he brings to the table, whereas I can clearly see that with Sydal. London is also Mexican and thus doesn't posses the Aryan pure blood of Sydal right?
  3. Pearce is terrible, I am not a fan of ROH overkill wrestling at all, but Pearces booking has been total shit, and he seems to have no idea what the audience want. ROH feels like Russo WCW or end of the line UWF at this point.
  4. What Fargos are the Fargos?
  5. I would rather have Lawler baby sit my little cousins, then have you babysit them
  6. I don't know how to respond to that. Feels to me like giving you the willies would be an endorsement for a persons character, not a negative.
  7. The girl Lawler was accused of raping recanted her story, so calling him a child molester seems a little out of bounds
  8. Most of the problems would have been solved if they had brought in all of the big guns at once instead of parceling them out. They eventually brought in Hall, Nash, Hogan, Flair Bischoff and Goldberg, if they had brought them in all at once and run that WCW v. WWF, you probably wouldn't have needed to turn your own guys
  9. Not impossible to have a good one at all, everyone who got the Memphis set has seen Koko v. Dundee which was awesome
  10. Dundee is definitly the king of the studio, there were a bunch of Dundee studio stuff that didn't make the set too for some reason which ruled as well. His heel run in 86 with Buddy was awesome shit, as he was just brutalizing jobbers. There is a hideous beating of Billy Joe Travis which I almost nominated even though it was completely one sided
  11. I remember absoulutely loving that Ware/Lane tag, haven't rewatched it again, but I am sort of baffled by your response to it
  12. I think a Loser will leave town at the end of the number one match, but that Loser could be Dundee, Lawler, Dundee or Savage
  13. It was less that people didn't buy it, more that people didn't know that it was his finisher, so Danielson kicking out didn't mean anything. Shit I don't even remember Nakajima throwing a German suplex.
  14. I really liked the one Wanz v. Vader match I saw, how much other Otto is on tape, are we sure he sucked in the ring?
  15. YOU GO TO HELL!! THAT IS WHAT I SAY
  16. There are only a couple of matches which go over 30, and nothing like the 40-60 minute matches on the Mid-South set. Also a pretty wide variety of kooky shit which should easy to rank. You will either love Freddy v. Buddy Landell or you will be the kind of joyless sack of shit who doesn't think it should have made it

  18. I actually though Stan Lane kind of sucked as a member of MX, which is one of the reasons I have been so surprised how much I dug Fabs Stan Lane on the Memphis set
  19. The correct answer is Norvell Austin and Dennis Condrey
  20. Yeah Steiner has a huge heart, and by that I mean dangerously enlarged
  21. I don't understand the mentality of people who feel Lashley or Brock acted somehow dishonorably. Since when is anyone required to stay in a job they aren't happy in, out of some misguided idea of loyalty to a billion dollar corporation. Shane chanting "You Sold Out" at Wrestlemania to a guy who turned down millions of dollars to pursue a dream is one of my favorite idiot wrestling mark stories ever, and I can't believe that it is an idea embraced by so many people
  22. I remember it being really good when I got on PPV the first time. Haven't had a chance to rewatch it yet
  23. If anyone is having problems registering over at DVDVR, PM me here and I can take care of it
  24. We have had some problems with our mod forum lately, which may be why you weren't approved, but go ahead and send a ballot to [email protected]
