  1. I counted Kikuchi getting murdered 3 times by Jumbo and once by Taue. I also liked Kawada's revenge lariat on Taue shortly after the one Taue targeted Kikuchi with. Kikuchi getting his showcase at the end was incredible.
  2. Flair makes me want to see him take on Luger to prove he is still the best. Also, I really liked their other matches this year, so seems like a win-win.
  3. The girls continue to improve on the mic this week. Anthony and Gilbert hype up a second cage match (?) for the MSC show. I know the girls cage match probably won't deliver anywhere near the tag in-ring, but doesn't that seem like overkill?
  4. Warrior holding Bruce by his own tie was a nice touch though. And it was a semi-coherent promo sort of mixed in with Warrior-isms of the past, so...a step up from your average Warrior promo then.
  5. Dusty's promo and Bobby's Rolling Stones line were all kinds of incredible. The rest is kind of insulting to the intelligence.
  6. Tatum coming back as the gorilla was a nice re-work of a Mid South angle. Good beatdown but too much bat work. I liked Gilbert and DWB getting the "we're smarter than Lawler" promo at the end.
  7. I was pretty shocked as well. Both women delivered on promos this week in ways they haven't before. That stripping match is almost something I'd want to see based on hearing the promos. Not that I would guess it's going to be worth anyone's while, but the buildup is really good.
  8. I'll agree that Tessa has been improving. Probably getting some coaching from Lawler and Dundee.
  9. Slaughter pointing a gun at the screen is so awesome. The ceremony was...something?
  10. I disagree on not terrible. Execution on all of the Muta spots was somewhere between barely competent and awful. How the Hell did the Georgia promotion run so long with Ole in charge?
  11. Craig really looks like he gives a shit when the heels start going here. It's as if someone has mentioned to him he's supposed to react like a normal human being instead of grinning like an idiot. About time, but if I'm not mistaken USWA is going to lose it's TV before too long.
  12. I'll echo this being the best match in the series so far. Austin in football gear is such a brilliant heel way to use this match gimmick. Wish Adams could get the upper hand once. Austin may be the heel, but Adams was supposed to be his teacher.
  13. I really liked the match, but for I think watching Tony Falk get the piledriver was the highlight for me. How is he back next week anyway?
  14. I'll agree that Schumann was really limited (now that I know which was which). The work after he gets busted open is definitely more accessible though. Match drags a lot and there is less charm to the way this repeats itself than say Wanz vs. Bull Power.
  15. That first horse seemed about as happy to be there as Valentine singing Hunk a Hunk a Honky Love. Not sure Jalisco could have ridden it without somebody hanging onto the harness for him.
  16. Hogan again uses real, actual emotion to fuel a promo and it does wonders. What a great, great promo and I'm starting to understand why a program like Hogan vs. Earthquake actually made some money.
  17. Malenko looks good in a feature match booked for that very purpose. Nothing great, but definitely a nice look at Malenko before he got to WCW.
  18. This 100 times over. I agree that it undercuts all of the booking leading up to it, but when was that ever going to not be the case once the feud hit the ring? Rude makes Warrior seem competent and badass in a way that not many guys figured out how to do. If nothing else, that must have some value to the guys upstairs.
  19. Really good little sprint that I enjoyed a lot. The Heenan signal to Perfect before he distracted the ref was absolute genius. Really wish Tito had been given more of a higher profile role in the WWF based on his matches with the guys who could go.
  20. Fun match between two guys who probably should have gone farther based on in-ring talent. DDP on commentary is pretty good even if his partner needs to be replaced.
  21. This feud has gone from a nice re-invention of Rick Rude to complete and total uninteresting nonsense. Even Heenan and a game Rick Rude can't save it at this point for me.
  22. Anyone else catch they were looking for the mouth of the Yangtze river in Africa? Good luck on that one given it's in China.
  23. Not sure what the Horsemen were trying to do to Luger. Rip his clothes off? Have they been watching too much USWA? Anyway, I guess we get across that Sting and co. are sick of the Horsemen and their shit.
  24. It's really something when you get counter promos to Lawler's that are just as good. When he's not asked to carry the whole thing himself it gets that much better.
  25. Let's hope Jim makes it to the end of the show. Should be a pretty fun card with lots of high profile matches.
