    Nailz is coming. This did nothing for me, but I know his debut is great.
  2. WingedEagle
    This was an awesome heel promo from Jake. Such a shame it was never harnessed for a top program.
  3. WingedEagle
    Savage is nuts. That statement is most definitely not untrue.
  4. WingedEagle
    Highlights from the WM press conference, Hogan's bus and Flair stepping of his limo in a robe AND suit. Then McMahon interviewing Flair. Gotta love wardrobe.
  5. WingedEagle
    Great heeling from Vader in the pre-match and throughout, with his post-match standing out for character work in Japan. Chono & Hash both have pretty short runs as FIPs before Bigelow does some great selling for Hash's offense. Would've benefited from chopping about 8-10 minutes off. ***

    Good promo from Jake setting up the WM match against Undertaker.
  7. WingedEagle
    Pillman knows from experience to stay off the juice. Still a shame to see this almost 16 years after his passing.
  8. WingedEagle
    Full clips from the post-Superbrawl party. Rude & the DA in tuxes interrupt and throws a drink in Sting's face they brawl. With no Clash between this and Wrestle War I'm surprised they didn't find a way to set up a title defense as a major match in the interim.

    Arn tells people to stay off steroids. He could make just about any material compelling and believable.
  10. WingedEagle
    Bischoff is in the control center, with highlights from Superbrawl II, including Sting's less than stellar post-show promo and Liger vs. Pillman. For some reason we've got DDP setting up the debut of Gordy & Williams. I definitely didn't recall talk about them this early as I don't believe they'd come in until June.

    Horner kicks Rogers out just shy of finishing his hour's worth of squats. The babyface/heel dynamic was pretty backwards here, even if Rogers is a natural heel.
  12. WingedEagle
    Cornette continues to build for his team's debut with a bunch of pop culture references, including the aforementioned deliverance remark. Nothing so fantastic in these SMW clips, but a nice mix of promos and character intros for a 60 minute program.
  13. WingedEagle
    Armstrong bans Wright from ringside until he is managing someone. He won't stand for Wright's mularkey and then wheels him out. Good stuff.
  14. WingedEagle
    Horner is sporting a dashing pink sweatshirt and bets $500 Rogers can't do squats for the whole hour.
  15. WingedEagle
    Dutch & Rogers deliver pretty standard promos as SMW establishes its characters. I know SMW picks up in the months ahead, but Memphis was clearly on another level at this point.
  16. WingedEagle
    Embry delivers a promo outdoors on Pat Tanaka on the upcoming stips. Memphis was really an afterthought for me when I picked up the yearbooks but thus far I'm loving how different it is from everything else -- yet another example of the variety that makes these sets so great.
  17. WingedEagle
    Kimala interferes for the faces and we get a few minutes of standard, top shelf 1992 Memphis brawling.
  18. WingedEagle
    Hogan promoting Children's vitamins. I absolutely wanted these back then. Thanks, mom and dad.
  19. WingedEagle
    Mickey Jay was clearly not on the juice. He was clearly concerned about taking the bump off the stretcher.
  20. WingedEagle
    "Elizabeth was mine before she was yours." What a money line. You could see it clicked with him right away that he'd found his hook for this program's promos. Gene's overreactions throughout this were great as well.
  21. WingedEagle
    Not just people. Remember who's calling the shots.
  22. WingedEagle
    I'd love to see Moondogs vs. Steiner Brothers, Hansen & Tenryu and MVC.

  24. WingedEagle
    Amen.
  25. WingedEagle
    Correct, they closed it with that rather than Sting vs. Cactus or Steamer/Rude. I wonder if they had to guarantee the MVC a couple main events as part of bringing them over.
