[1990-12-26-NJPW-King of Kings] Nick Bockwinkel vs Masa Saito
dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in December 1990
For a guy who was 56 and 3 years out of wrestling, Bock looked really impressive. I like that they kept it basic and worked everything in a really gritty fashion. Definitely my kind of match.- 7 replies

[1990-12-26-NJPW-King of Kings] Jushin Liger vs Negro Casas
dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in December 1990
Not great, but glad I got to see 2 legends mix it up. Casas' outfit was something else.- 8 replies

Great match between the two best high end guys left in the WWF. Loved Piper's fire here.

I thnk Lawler doing the "real world title" thing was much, much better after seeing this. Larry does what he can with it, he's just not on the same level.

Whatever faults he had as a promo, Orndorff was miles ahead of Doc. Really hoping this match made tape somewhere though.

[1990-12-08-WWF-Superstars] Brother Love: Ted DiBiase, Virgil & Dustin Rhodes
dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in December 1990
Ted again proves that he is an unsung hero for the WWF in 1990. I'm sorry I ever doubted JvK about how great Teddy was. -
[1990-12-30-WWF-Wrestling Challenge] Interview: Dusty & Dustin Rhodes
dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in December 1990
I've signed on with the idea of Eddie Gilbert as promo of the year, but if Dusty had been doing this all year it would have been a much tougher call. -
[1990-12-22-USWA-Memphis TV] Music Video: Jerry Lawler
dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in December 1990
Jerry Lawler fired up promo? AND a video of Lawler punching a bunch of big names repeatedly? I'm in! -
[1990-12-22-USWA-Memphis TV] Interview: Eddie Gilbert
dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in December 1990
Eddie IS Jerry Lawler now. I love how this stuff about Eddie being the New King (and all of his rhetoric) plays into Lawler's accusation months earlier. It's great that all of Eddie's crowing just proves Lawler's point that Eddie is just some punk kid who really, really wants to be Lawler. The fact that Eddie is actually a better heel Lawler makes it even better. -
[1990-12-22-NWA-World Championship Wrestling] Sting and Ric Flair
dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in December 1990
This was damage control, plain and simple. It's better than the months before it anyway. -
[1990-12-22-USWA-Memphis TV] Jim Cornette and Fabulous Ones promo
dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in December 1990
Man, now I am torn between wanting to see the Fabs and MX in Memphis. Can I get both, with some kind of 3 man stable thing instead? Anyway, good to see Corny in Memphis. -
[1990-12-16-NWA-Starrcade '90] Interview: Stan Hansen
dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in December 1990
Hansen, God bless him, did what he could with what he was handed. He did get to put a legit gripe out there about the cowbell though, so good for him. -
[1990-12-15-WWF-Superstars] Cain the Undertaker vs Mario Mancini
dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in December 1990
Good to know where the "Kane" thing they used years later came from anyway. -
[1990-12-08-NWA-World Championship Wrestling] Rip Rogers vs Brian Pillman
dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in December 1990
I do like Rogers interacting with the crowd. He seems like a guy who would have excelled in the territory days. -
[1990-12-15-WWF-Superstars] Mr Perfect vs Kerry Von Erich
dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in December 1990
I'm with DiBiase as the MVP of the year for the WWF. He was Mr. Consistency throughout. Maybe Vince realized that Kerry was extremely damaged goods by this point and started writing him out? -
[1990-12-16-NWA Starrcade '90] Sting vs Black Scorpion (Cage)
dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in December 1990
Steamboat as Scorpion??? This has promise. Anyway, thank God this whole bullshit saga is over and Ole is out of town. Good luck picking up the pieces Dusty. -
[1990-12-16-NWA Starrcade '90] Lex Luger vs Stan Hansen (Bullrope)
dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in December 1990
Luger vs. Hansen was way better than I expected. Then again, before the 1990 stuff I didn't know Luger was so damn good. I agree that he gets to showcase a different side of himself in this setting and it's something I wish we'd seen more of.- 11 replies

This is absolutely my kind of match and there need to be more like it. Nasty, stiff, no useless stuff to fill time....great stuff.

I really do love this time in AJPW. Misawa, Kawada, Taue and Kobashi are all improving so rapidly that Jumbo has to up his game in order to stay the ace. Great tag match and those 20+ minutes absolutely flew by.

These two have incredible chemistry. Waltman in particular has a ton of potential. Too bad his personal issues got in the way so often.

[1990-12-08-USWA-Memphis TV] Eddie and Doug Gilbert promo
dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in December 1990
Sounds like a fun match, but you have to hope Eddie and Tommy are in for short bursts. Even if they are probably better than half of the WWF roster still.
