[1998-04-04-ECW-Buffalo, NY] Rob Van Dam vs Bam Bam Bigelow
TravJ1979 replied to Loss's topic in April 1998
Why was I such a RVD mark back then? I agree the stalling at the beginning was mind numbing. However it did get better, but I still think RVD was too much in a hurry to get his shit in. With that sad, goes to show you ECW quality when this is contender for ECW MOTY. -
[1998-04-04-NJPW-Inoki Retirement Show] Kensuke Sasaki vs Tatsumi Fujinami

twenty enzugiri's later Fujinami is your nostalgia champ. -
[1998-04-04-NJPW-Inoki Retirement Show] Antonio Inoki vs Don Frye
TravJ1979 replied to Loss's topic in April 1998
Ali has no clue, but I'm sure he got a handsome sum of money. Frye is once again jobber to the retirees, again probably getting a great pay day. Inoki getting smashed for four minutes until pulling out the win. -
I remember enjoying the RVD/Sabu stuff, but these early versions are hard to sit through. Like how the Triple Threat are tired of Douglas talking about Snow. FBI was funny. BWO was stupid.

[1998-03-30-WCW-Nitro] Chris Jericho vs Marty Jannetty
TravJ1979 replied to Loss's topic in March 1998
Saturn would later steal the Moss-Covered, Three-Handled family credenza from jericho's list of moves. Squash match to start, Prince nobody at the end and still Jericho makes the segment fantastic. If only he was like this in 2016.- 4 replies

[1998-03-30-WWF-Raw] New Age Outlaws vs Cactus Jack & Chainsaw Charlie (Cage)
TravJ1979 replied to Loss's topic in March 1998
D-X are a top threat (at least for a week), and you get the titles off Cactus/Funk so Cactus can turn heel. -
So yeah, Vince, Austin, Rock and a rejuvenated D-X is WCW's death nail. Too bad D-X become goofs next week by pissing on DOA bikes.

Vince turning, Austin on fire, The Rock being pushed ...a perfect storm.

[1998-03-30-WWF-Raw] More Steve Austin and Vince McMahon
TravJ1979 replied to Loss's topic in March 1998
and with this, Vince will rule US wrestling for the next 28 years and counting. -
[1998-03-29-WWF-Wrestlemania XIV] Post-Show Press Conference
TravJ1979 replied to Loss's topic in March 1998
"if the money is right, I'll fight a Lion" Loved how he mentions Nikolai Volkoff in his list of legends. -
[1998-03-29-WWF-Wrestlemania XIV] Shawn Michaels vs Steve Austin
TravJ1979 replied to Loss's topic in March 1998
Knowing how much pain HBK was going through, this is an uncanny performance. Good match, which in WWF has been few and far between so far this year, but it gets better.- 14 replies

[1998-03-29-WWF-Wrestlemania XIV] The Undertaker vs Kane
TravJ1979 replied to Loss's topic in March 1998
From what is shown, this may have been terrible. May watch it in full to see if I'm right. Although, not looking forward to it.- 10 replies

[1998-03-29-WWF-Wrestlemania XIV] Pete Rose and Kane
TravJ1979 replied to Loss's topic in March 1998
Yeah, thought it was weird for Kane to tombstone someone heeling on the crowd, but despite that bit of Russo logic, really fun segment and Rose did a great job.- 10 replies

[1998-03-29-WWF-Wrestlemania XIV] The Rock and Gennifer Flowers
TravJ1979 replied to Loss's topic in March 1998
Not when Rock was born, but when he was a made man. Only up from here. -
[1998-03-29-AJPW-Championship Carnival] Mitsuharu Misawa vs Toshiaki Kawada
TravJ1979 replied to Loss's topic in March 1998
I don't think these two are capable of a match below three stars. The announcers keep talking about the Tokyo Dome match which treated this like just another Carnival match. I enjoyed it, but it wasn't a classic which is fine because they didn't try to make it one.- 7 replies
