  1. Dundee's denim jacket is just gorgeous.
  2. Some great promos there. And I loved Jimmy Hart's Arsenio reference.
  3. I'm a girl so I can relate to the big blowup with a friend only to apologise and kiss and make-up and be BFFs the next day. I'm not an expert on this, but I think I'm right in thinking that a lot of young women watched AJW. So I think the booking may have been geared to their female fanbase. That's why I actually really liked the ending where Toyota throws herself on the proverbial cross and it gives her some of the sympathy. And yes, speaking as a girl, losing your hair is horrible. You don't see a lot of females in masks so the hair is a logical thing to put on the line and losing it would suck which is why the wig business is a multi-million dollar business for women that lose hair for whatever (unfortunate) reason. Also, ask ANY woman that gets a bad haircut...the WORST part is all the bad hair days you have while you wait for it to grow back.
  4. I was 9 at the time and even I realised Perfect was just screwing around with them.
  5. I vividly remember watching this after school. In fact, I'd say one of the first things I searched for when I got the internet was information about this stupid match. Crazy how well I remember what was essentially 3 minutes of watching a yellow cage rocking. Though the post-match was great where Chaz proclaims that he saw his "life flash between my eyes" and then announces that the Road Warriors thought of the phrase "What A Rush!" under similar circumstances. He "need not say no more".
  6. I didn't see that one coming at all at that time. And that fan IS indeed golden.
  7. The makers of Scarface shoulda sued. I mean...he even used the "world and everything in it" line!
  8. Carlito comparisons abound.
  9. It was going down a Deliverance path when he started talking about his eye colour.
  10. His name was Ron Oakes...or as Maclin would call him "THE HO'NET"
  11. This match obviously isn't as vicious now after everything we've seen (including most of what we've seen from Foley himself), but when you compare it to what else was going on in the US at the time, you can see why it has such a good rep.
  12. This was the first IronMan match I saw as a kid so it's the way I thought they should go. The Bret-HBK one was such a shock for me.
  13. Honestly, one of my top 5 moments from 1992. I refuse to believe that Brian Christopher found his greatest success as a babyface, the man is a natural heel.
  14. Once you've heard Jason Hervey commentate on a ~20 minute Big Josh match, life takes on new meaning.
  15. This is the weirdest of these weird segments.
  16. Remember watching this as a kid and thought it was pretty cool. I wondered how it work but never second-guessed why he was wearing a jacket.
  17. If it had been one fall, they may have been able to condense it into a watchable match.
  18. I had that magazine. Ric Flair: early Photoshop expert.
  19. My first Mania, too. And this was the match that stood out then...and now.
  20. Eric Bischoff's way of speaking is so bizarre on these.
  21. The way Maclin says "Dirty White Boy" is how I hear it every time I see it written.
