How many times was she a heel after 2002? I remember her being a face as the SD! authority figure. This new shitty character is her SD face character except she is dressing down faces instead of heels.

What?

We can't disable it?

Right, I wasn't high on his singles stuff. I loved the KOW tag team. Need to revisit it.

Nobody was announced last night?

Is there a list of the matches he gave five stars to?

I really want to rewatch some old Claudio to see if we were just missing something all along.

I can see Batista pointing to the sign with the whole crowd just chanting No No No No...

If the youtube embed is killing computer speed, kill the feature. Convenient but not mandatory by any means.

I know he can'tbe a heel right away but Batista the face? Eh. I hope he doesn't win.

Elaborate.

I think we will get the DVD release of all of the Manias including #1. WCW is up in the air. They have all the Starrcades so I can see them releasing all of the full Starrcades but skipping on the commercial releases of the GABs and Crockett Cups. I will be shocked and happy if they release them in full. They released a Clash DVD set so we could see the full Clashes released eventually or just the Best of the Clash DVD that popped up.

OK makes sense.

OK fuck this... if anyone can help me make a long post without an IP driver error, i will post my rebuttal. I see apostrophes and dashes in other posts. I eliminated most of them in the last half hour and still cant post my shit.

Upgrade the board.

Wrong thread?

It is all in good fun. In my initial post, I should have said it is not always used as a finisher. Of course the chain can be a game ender but it is not always played as a game ender. It depends what the story of the match is and when the chain is presented. Phil and I just watched a Joey Mercury match from 2007 where Mercury pulls out the chain early on to take control and he uses it as a crutch. On the Texas set, he used the chain in a similar fashion. Here is my review of the match... Jerry Lawler vs. Eric Embry Legends of WCCW 9/18/90 (EDIT COMMERCIAL) - Early on, typical Lawler schtick which rules. Lawler starts it off with a back body drop but on the 2nd one, Embry drops him with a nice DDT. Lawler gets tagged with an enziguiri forcing him to take a breather but he grabs a towel and chokes Embry with it when he comes back in. NICE! They are playing hide the chain with a towel instead and it rules nearly every time Lawler does it. In the meantime, he distracts the ref and keeps killing Embry. With the towel outside, Lawler unties his boot and with the first chance he gets, wallops Embry who is saved only by getting his foot on the rope. Shit, Lawler is giving a clinic on using weapons in the ring. Yep, he starts with the chain. Shit, Embry is just a supporting actor in Lawlers play. Toying with Embry the entire match, even his pins scream asshole. Of course, Embry makes a big comeback with a few nearfalls. Embry nails Lawler with the chain in a nice twist but the ref is distracted. This gives Lawler time to recover and get a quick pin. Shit, this will finish high on my ballot. SLAM DUNK.

Yeah from Bundy's fist in a Vader like shoot punch.

Still working pn it.

We've seen a chain used as a KO finish in Memphis more times than I could count. Was it the thin chain with fine links or thicker bicycle chain variety?

I was going to ask how long that match lasted!

Come on Will he went all Memphis heel in that run. I liked it, but it was mostly all character work . It also probably wouldn't have worked if he wasn't part of the hottest baby face act in the Rock n Roll Express that was on top for 2 years in SMW. I'll take character work any day of the week. Clearly he works better in a tag team. he was also pretty damn good in that tag team.

Lots of average workers made it in the big leagues. However, if you look at post-RNR Gibson in SMW, he was still performing at a high level.

Hansen had the amazing match with green as grass Leon White in the AWA. He had super fun brawls in Memphis with Austin Idol. Hansen in the states was gold. The problem was he didn't stay here long in his runs.

So had Ron Bass. You asked if he could make it without Ricky, The answer is yes.
