    Crowd was really into it. Took me a while to notice they were in Bodukan. They light the place up for New Japan compared to All Japan. Vader getting thrown around is still something I'm not entirely accepting off and it happens quite a bit here. Scott gets all jacked up at one point and falls off the top rope. Vader gets dropped on his head with the Frankensteiner. Didn't really like the finish either. Wouldn't call it a disappointment as I enjoyed good portion of it but yeah I can see how one would expect more with those involved.

    Good match. Agreed that it was a good story in match and found myself rooting for Sasaki to pull out a victory. Even with the loss he still came off good.

    Great start with Samurai slapping Liger and getting a kick in the face for his rudeness. Liger was really pounding him early on. One of Liger's dives he bounced off the guard rail. Samurai connects with two nice ones back to back. The exchange big moves and it looks like Liger is going to put Samurai away but he gets a nice looking reversal for the pin. Felt like Samurai would have no chance here after pissing Liger off early but he pulls out the nice upset.

    They were whipping chairs at each other and I was cringing until the ref took an accidental chair shot to the back and completely no sold it. Very physical otherwise though.

    With the hushed crowd you get to hear Fujiwara grunting and breathing heavy. Vale had some head kicks that just missed. Them reversing each other was pretty good. Figure Vale would be returning the job here so was surprising to see him get the victory. Fujiwara had a small armband around his bicep area. Was wondering reason for that.

    Great match but some of the falls did kind of bother me. Steamboat was dominating match early and then got pinned pretty easy by Rude after eight minutes. Just wasn't buying that one. He hits the Rude Awakening right after to go up two falls. I think they should have reversed those two pinfalls. Rude getting DQ but following up and getting the pin was a nice spot. I can understand breaks between pinfalls to allow time to regroup but they do a good job with continuing on each other and makes for a fast paced match. I didn't like Rude doing the sleeper at the end for the last couple minutes. Would have made more sense if he was up a fall but it was tied at that point. It ended up burning him as Steamboat picked up a fall and Rude had little time left to tie things up. I guess I can accept as an arrogant heel thinking he would win with the sleeper.

    Enjoyed it a lot. Cactus just stands on the ramp waiting for Sting as falls count anywhere. They do a lot of brawling outside the ring and make use of the non-padded floor to show off the rule change. I was impressed with Sting taking some of bumps he did. Finish was good with Sting coming off the top rope with a clothesline to Cactus on the ramp.

    Everyone seemed worn out including the crowd. Poor Randy Anderson was sweating bullets. Didn't seem right to put this match on last. Scott does hit the Frankensteiner clean on Gordy which was impressive.

    Thought it was good. It was nice to get away from the 2 out of 3 falls stuff. Seemed that maybe they would go for the TV time draw. Austin outsmarts Windham by laying prone hiding the title belt and nails him. Referee's view seemed to be blocked so it was okay but risky since he wasn't really being distracted enough by Paul E.

    I like how they used his real kids names for the two illegitimate ones.

    Arn wants to abandon the tag team ranks and go after Sting. Pretty good promo. I may not believe he could beat Sting but I'd root for him.

    The whole blaming Kaufman's death on Lawler was a bit too much. Dennis does come off sleazy in things segments.

    This was excellent. Really great job of putting the video package together. Looking forward to the 90 yearbook.

    I felt like it was more Shawn just wanting to talking about Shawn as he is developing this ego since the Rockers split. He wants Intercontinental title but didn't seem to want to talk about Bret. Him mentioning himself in the building doesn't really work as well as when the have the ring announcer interrupt to say he has left.

    It would seem that wrestling is one of the hardest things to do wearing a toupee. Unless he's got the thing bolted on or something.

    Yeah, this felt out of place since I thought it was already proven where Koloff's alliances were. An offer was made to Nikita though and Dangerously doesn't seem to care about the answer so Madusa comes out. Nikita will not accept the offer and poor Madusa is left speechless.

    Ramon shows off his fancy ride. He's doing a better job with the accent than Nikita's.

    Really good. Rick can really throw some impressive looking suplexes on bigger guys. Wasn't completely buying Williams & Gordy representing Japan. I know they spend most of their time there but they are not Japanese. Rick's double leg take down and pounding was great. Jesse was having a fit with the closed fist punches. Williams and Gordy make a great opponent for the Steiners as they can get just as physical. Dug the ending with the vicious chop block to Scott who was in the process of doing a belly to bell suplex. Good timing and believable finish with Williams falling on top of him.

    Fun match. Wellington was better than expected. Pillman and Benoit were really slapping the hell out of each other. Lots of dives to the outside with no mat. Only a carpet out there for the entrance but it seemed to be where all the dives went. Liger struggled on a couple suplex moves at the end.

    Sting's face paint matches his tuxedo. He is ready for Vader.

    Rude's promo makes Madusa blush. He's pretty confident about the 30 minute Ironman match.
  22. Kevin Ridge
    I could only imagine if these things happened in the early 80's when guys partied a bit harder. Would have been something if Andre was on one.

    Big board with the tag team title bracket in the background. Putting a lot of effort into that one.
  24. Kevin Ridge
    Never put a whole lot of thought into the mat outside the ring. Don't really like seeing guys get slammed on the concrete though. Watts and Ole both try to put over that WCW will be about wrestling. This wrestling debate seems to back pretty far as on AWA set Verne was saying the same thing.

    Lee is tough to watch. With the small quiet crowd his foot stomping on punches is really distracting. Rogers got a pretty sweet deal of $2K to take a walk before the match started. Random crowd shot of some dude with sunglasses and one leather glove yelling was funny. Hector getting hanged by his tie was cool. That's what he gets for being the only guy out there wearing business casual clothes.
