  1. I am starting to agree with JvK and others on Lawler burying his opponents. It's hard to argue that he's not burying Awesome here and Awesome does little to help himself.
  2. For a guy as green as he is, Austin looks really good. It probably helps a lot that he's going up against his teacher. The Adams reversal into the finish was pretty easy to see coming, but that may speak to the general flow of the match being good. I second Adams temper being a nice touch for his character.
  3. BJT proves to be a legit great heel. he works his gimmick perfectly opposite Valiant's bullshit and we get an entertaining match out of what seems like a nothing deal (and...was?).
  4. Lane's line in the pre-match promo was gold. Damn pretty boys. Great stuff from MX, which seems par for the course. Why does it seem like both the MX and RnR are being kept a level below the Steiners?
  5. The Lawler match against Bock with the amazing punch comeback before the end is must-see if you ask me. Also, the Dundee LLT match based around Lawler's injured eye.
  6. Loved the match, but thought Flair gave a little too much up to Morton. Even so, great work by both.
  7. Sherri is absolutely outstanding as Savage's valet. I think she cuts a better promo and comes across crazier. Impressive given the company she's in.
  8. I think that in this video "wrestling" is equated with "the WWF". That would account for the numbers mentioned.
  9. Pringle really shines here, very unexpectedly. Embry is damn good too, with the heels bringing the pain and the cowardice when they ought to.
  10. Dandy playing a subtle rudo throughout and then ramping it up at the end was great. Lacked direction through the first two falls though.
  11. Lawler knocks another one out of the park, this time running down Jeff Jarrett. Can't argue with that at all.
  12. Ole is a great promo. I love how he uses his character and natural intimidating nature. Just he had shit to work with at this point so it's hard to love where this goes. Luckily Doom lost the masks so we can just recycle those.
  13. I was thinking that about Valiant myself. There aren't many who can make the crowd boo Lawler in Memphis anymore. That has to be why Valiant is here. He's definitely not much in the ring, but they keep it simple enough and it works. Good to see a ref bump go against Lawler for once.
  14. That's two guys now, Foley and DDP, who really picked up their game. It's cool to see where they came from, as long as it's not every awful step along the way to finding the right formula.
  15. ICW is absolutely bizarre. But hey, at least they have the sense to keep a good amount of homophobia in store. And that guy's lisp seemed really forced.
  16. Terrible match. Did I imagine it or is Atlas actually a babyface? Turning perhaps?
  17. Really loving Robert Fuller so far. I'm thining he's a guy who really gets lost in the mainstream shuffle for not having a mainstream run as himself.
  18. I loved Estrada taking advantage of the shoulder he injured to end the second fall. Satanico fighting through it and avoiding Estrada's attempts at finishing him definitively long enough to catch him off-guard was a great, meaningful third fall. Satanico the tecnico may be better than Satanico the rudo.
  19. Loved this whole thing. Lawler proving his connections then getting all sulky was all kinds of incredible. Also, Jerry Lawler is NOT angry. Don't you even think that for a second. Might get a good right hand for shit like that if you're not Dave.
  20. Champion kind of lives up to the brainless comment by sticking around long enough for Lawler to hit him. Lawler is on a tear the last 2 weeks! So good too, but I agree with Loss that he needed a babyface who could keep up with him. Preferably one Lawler could have made jump through hoops for a while before the showdown.
  21. Saw somebody eating the pie for sure once it came out. Poor Nate. Lawler is just such a rotten bastard here even the Memphis studio turns on him.
  22. If I didn't love Lawler before this show, I don't know how I could keep that view after.
  23. I was wondering if Yatsu had given his notice as well. He gets run over without getting to do much at all.
