    That was D-Lo. The Euro title never meant anything. It's been a one match (Owen vs Bulldog in Germany) title. Nah, I'm pretty sure that was Al Snow. He came out to several themed European stereotypes or whatever. He may have, but D-Lo did it first.

    It doesn't matter in a sense that I don't take it into consideration when ranking guys. Although it matters in a sense that being in the main event alters what they did.

    I still don't get this. Card placement matters for the main reason is opportunity. Main Eventers get more opportunities to have big matches at the top of the card, but why is that relevant? Nobody is ranking Triple H above Psicosis, for example. Nobody is ranking Great Khali at all or Sid, while we have threads discussing Jim Brunzell and Brad Armstrong. Sure, the top guys on the list may be at the top of cards, but who cares? It doesn't mean that being at the top of the card means you get placed above people on lower cards. I'm confused.

    Depends on the person. Regal is great, but Triple H sure had a lot more opportunities to look great.
  5. Grimmas
    The list will be skewed towards main eventers, because they have more opportunities to have great matches.

    So, for the 15 spots, so far: 1) Mascarita Dorada 2) Tommy Rich 3) Ronnie Garvin 4) Bruno Sammartino 5) Vic Faulkner 6) Osamu Nishimura 7) Invader I 8) Eric Embry 9) Virus 10) Eddie Guerrero 11) Larry Zbyszko That leaves 4 spots I will wait to fill based on arguments and more suggestions. Keep them coming, there are lots of guys on this list I would had never thought about.

    Baby face Shawn is the WORST! It's too bad Bret & Vader never had a long singles match, because it could had been awesome. I do appreciate that Sid took the camera man to the back, thus giving a reason for one to be back there. So much better than the current WWE cameras are everywhere style.

    "When I was born, I was born the man" is such a cool and awesome line. I loved Sid's promo, but then HBK comes out and this shit falls apart.

    I wanted to like this, but when they got away from having a scaffold match and it turned into a sprawling brawl I was not happy. Matsunaga could not even save this. It was alright and all and a nice change of pace.
  12. Grimmas
    Definitely a fun brawl that I enjoyed, but I had it around 3 3/4. Some of the spots (like the hanging and crowd brawling) felt like they should feel more epic than they felt. It kind of felt like a fun match that could had been great with maybe some backstory I am missing or just something.

    Punk to UFC

    Grimmas replied to Shining Wiz's topic in WWE

    It certainly gives Punk lots of material for promos.

    Current WWE

    Grimmas replied to Smack2k's topic in WWE

    I was thinking that the free pre-match show before the Royal Rumble should be a 15 women Royal Rumble match with the winner getting the shot at Mania. You could easily have: Brie AJ Natayla Cameron Naomi Paige Rosa Mendes Layla Alicia Fox Emma Eva Marie Summer Rae Tamina then have the two final slots as NXT folks or people like Trish or Lita doing a one shot.

    Sure, some people grade women's matches on a curve, but to say everyone does is insane. I put the match at *** 3/4 maybe *** 1/2. How is that not fair? That is up there with the Natalya-Charlotte and Paige-Emma as best women's match this year and it would make my top 50 WWE matches this year. Still, most WWE PPVs would have 1 or 2 matches at that level, so adding the NXT women to the main roster would surely help out the shows.
  16. Grimmas
    So, what are you saying? They should never try to make a women a star at the level of the top men, because they haven't in the past?

    What we are waiting for is a show like Night of Champions or No Way Out being headlined by a women's match. Anyone who's hoping for that is gonna be waiting a while, and understandably so. Has that ever happened in the history of pro wrestling ? Two women headlining a men's (or even inter-gender) promotion ? Tho, granted, nothing moves the needle for wrestling in the US currently. I doubt putting two women on top, for the sake of it, would change that. And the ghost of Joshi haunting this thread is scaring me.. UFC has done it. There was a Tokyo Dome show headlined by women that had men on it. In the Olympics what is the main event of figure-skating? It's not the men's campaign, that is for sure. I don't think you should put women on top for the sake of it, but I think you could strap a rocket to someone like Charlotte and make her as big as a star as Seth Rollins currently is.

    I have never seen Shotgun Saturday Night before and this was insane. Mascarita Sagrada vs Mini Vader is teased, but not shown and I am sad. Hog farmers vs nuns? I love that Vince makes a jam joke and now Brother Love returns! Bob Backlund is out of his mind. Weird and crazy stuff.

    Ok, this was legit from one of the first ECW shows I saw. This was neat to see for that fact. How goofy was it to have the bWo in those outfits walking around Ne York City? The superkick on Santa is something a high school friend of mine still brings up today!
  20. Grimmas
    This was an awesome match. I have learned, over time, that at the very least I need a sense that the two guys in the ring are competing with each other. Well, everything in this match was a true struggle and had to be worked for. You felt every move in this one. From the awesome collar and tie up to begin things to the vicious brainbuster to end them, I was hooked on this one. **** 1/4

    Golden Liger with all the belts looked so freaking cool! I'm a big fan of the J-Crown and Liger, so really looking forward to his run here.
  22. Grimmas
    I had never seen Jericho as Super Liger. It was as bad as touted. Just a very awkward situation. Koji didn't look too great either, passed on the bit we saw and I generally love Koji.

    The SummerSlam when Bryan won the title and Randy Orton cashed in I completely missed that angle and went to bed thinking Bryan was the new star of the company. Woke up the next day to find out Randy Orton was the champ.

    My discs arrived today! My first yearbook! The viewing will commence with comments for every segment! I am very excited!
