For the wrestling we got, I'd say Syxx and Flair could have a really good match. Syxx busting out some Flair spots to stooge for Flair was pretty great.
-
For as great as Flair is on the mic and Syxx has never been praised for his pormos, Syxx really pulls his own weight here.
-
I also thought this was a really fun squash. And a good way to progress Farooq as a character, willing to do some heinous things to his most disposable underlings once they have outlived their usefulness. PG13 are a really fun tag team also.
-
Bret is way more focused here than he was at the end of the show, which makes it much better. Bret as a bitter heel who hates the fans is really fun, especially given how many legitimate axes he really has to grind with the fans and the promotion.
-
Dustin breaking character is really weird given...well, Goldust. It's really good for what it is, but I don't get it for the character.
-
As much as I dislike Shawn, Bret is really grating in this. Probably on purpose, so I guess job well done.
-
Syxx and Flair have better chemistry in promos and the ring than Flair was ever willing to admit.
-
I agree the setup was weak and nobody would believe Bischoff had calls from the real Sting. Having Sting hit the reverse DDT was a nice touch tho.
-
I thought this beatdown was great. The nWo had maybe been falling off a bit. They are definitely back here.
-
I have to agree Jo Jo dillon did indeed look ineffective. Not so Rey, who is really building that spunky underdog persona.
-
The nWo had maybe been a little less than what they started as for a while, but this episode of Nitro really re-establishes the group I think. Hogan with just Bischoff (presumably because he knows Sting is not present) is a really nice touch.
-
Really great way to close the story of this Raw. Bret's promise to send SCSA to the hospital is kept and Pillman gets to play it up in his own style. Really great way to establish the Hart Foundation as the major heels in the company.
-
I did like how they missed the DDT spot and worked back to it instead of going right back to it. Good recovery by both. The post-match celebration was great in that it really irked the fans even more and put more heat on Bret.
-
Easily one of Bret's best promos. He's better as a heel for sure, it completely fits his dry humor and matter-of-fact promo style. Especially when he has legitimate gripes.
-
Austin is already gold on the mic. Also, the tongue-in-cheek wheelchair tease was great for the teaser and the premise of the promo once he got into the ring.
