    Seems like Meanie's only place was to allow Sabu to get some of his big spots over without completely destroying Richards. Helped to get him over as tough without getting him any more offense against Sabu than he should. I dug it.

    I don't think I ever saw the full version, but the ten minutes on the disc are a lot of fun. I can totally see Mutoh mailing it in and killing the first half though. He seemed pretty legit upset to be losing.

    This holds up very well. Crazy to see the difference in crowd for this and the title match vs the other two matches from the card. Vader slipping off the ramp while trying to intimidate Inoki during the entrance was kind of embarassing, but they played it off well. The German suplex is still awesome.

    This was a huge surprise for me. I never thought much of Yamazaki, but he worked insanely well with Hash. The kick sequence to open the match was beautiful and got me into things immediately. Good stuff.

    I really wasn't into this until the ending. I'm interested to see how NJ Juniors stuff holds up on the rest of the set. I've never been the biggest Kanemoto fan, though, so it may just be an outlier for me.

    Watching this for the first time since it aired, it now blows my mind that they built a halfway coherent match around a list of puns. The amount of time that had to have gone into scripting that is insane to think about.

    But isn't that typical of wrestling as a whole these days?

    Something close to the natural evolution from those matches. Everything was bigger, faster, dumber 10 years later. Less a sense that all of these little things were adding up to the degree that they were with Crazy/Tajiri, but that feels more like a change in ring psych philosophy as a whole.

    Fuck Meltzer, that was the most fun I've had watching wrestling in a long time.

    and Generico says fuck sentimentality and murders Steen. Beautiful.

    I'm pretty sure its because they only have five weeks, and it'll be easier to rush through a season if they're just introducing the new chicks.

    No one has reported anything of that sort. Meltzer has only made references to her not keeping her partying under control on the road, and for all you know that means she's doing lines off a stripper in the arena parking lot.

    It's "natural athletes", not pure. Pure refers to something else.

    The biggest point that is being ignored here is that people are getting self righteous about a situation that no one has the slightest amount of detail about. I'm going to make an assumption, and it could be 100% false, but I'd guess that whatever she was doing, it was a bit more involved than going out and having one too many drinks every night.

    Finkel can be replaced by someone young and attractive who does the job just as well. You can do the same with Lawler, but it will take multiple people if you want to fill each job he does. It's worthwhile to keep around one of your main tv announcers because he brings something major to the show each week. With the ring announcer, hearing Fink brings back memories for people who have watched forever, but most people wouldn't notice him not being there.

    RAW tonight

    Because Jerry Lawler is a 60 year old who makes rare ring appearances, will always be taken seriously regardless of his age, and will always help make his opponents look good. Howard Finkel is an old dude who says peoples names before their match.

    They were talking about guys cheating, IIRC.

    Yeah, the guest commentary is optional.

    Yeah, I get that Dave's a busy dude and without Alvarez, we wouldn't currently have the Observer in an online format. I've just been baffled as to why Dave hasn't found someone else to host the site for his newsletter that isn't looking to take advantage of all the eyeballs he brings to it. It's like Bill James joining Deadspin because they offered to give him an online voice.
