    Austin still on fire to start 1998. Both Shawn and Hunter try to not back down, but still end up looking afraid.
  2. TravJ1979
    Triple H and Shawn at their most obnoxious. Was funny in '98, not funny at all now.
  3. TravJ1979
    Was Hogan nursing an injury, because he moves as slow as molasses here breaking up the pin? Sting looks deflated here and like a total goof. It all makes sense though.

    Nash has always been too smarmy for me. It worked for him in 1998, but when he came back to WWE and tried it with The Rock and CM Punk he got owned. This wasn't a bad promo, I just do not like Nash. By the way, is a Tiger Bomb an actual move?

    Fun to watch all of the highspots, but the submissions to end each caida made it impossible to suspend my disbelief at all. Most of them just looked like loosely applied normal holds. Maybe my expectations were too high. RATING: I thought this was worse than the Souled Out Lucha match.
  6. TravJ1979
    Short match that was pretty average, but sure did pick up in the last minute and a half. I just know given more time these guys could do something better. RATING: Nothing that needs to be revisited.
  7. TravJ1979
    The same Hall promo we see every week. Dusty comes out and gives a great promo that includes his '91 run as booker, internet marks, and even the fired syxx-pac all in one swoop. This should have been cut at Souled Out, but still glad we got it here. RATING: Dusty as heel is weird, especially since no matches will be coming out of it.
  8. TravJ1979
    Great song-wrestler pairing. Could have used a bit more in-ring action, but enjoyable video. RATING: Whatever happened to The Prodigy?

    Douglas constantly reminds us that he is shooting except half the stuff he says is lies (i.e. sleeping with Francine, Sunny wanting to bang Storm, Storm being a hot prospect). I was full on RVD mark at this point and thought the lift was amazing. Snow promo was okay. Bam Bam begging Taz was awkward, especially when he got on his hands and knees and said, "No, I'm not gonna suck your ..." then changes his train of thought mid sentence. It looks as though Taz was almost the same height as Bigelow. Best part of that exchange was Bigelow asking if Taz will be his partner and Taz retorts with "No brother, I'm going to be your Savior!" RATING: Fun way to catch up on all current ECW storylines without having to watch any matches.

    Heyman surely does love to meld together porn and the extreme nature of ECW. Pretty soon is when he starts saying, "More hardcore than a Brazilian porn movie!" line ad nauseam. Nice touch having her look at the mic towards the end like it reminds her of her day job. RATING: Jenna is still hot in a trashy sort of way.
  11. TravJ1979
    Austin cuts a helluva promo on Tyson. He's clearly the best on the mic at this point in WWE. Austin, Flair and Jericho are Best on the mic so far this year. RATING: Why Oh Hell Yeah.
  12. TravJ1979
    Don King as a rambling, senile, old man incoherently trying to get a point across. RATING: They are lucky this didn't cost them buys.
  13. TravJ1979
    Recap of iconic segment. RATING: Controversy creates cash ... or something like that.
  14. TravJ1979
    The Goldust-As-Someone-Else act is already starting to wear on me. It seems like a running comment with me so far this year, but Luna as Chyna is oddly attractive. The match was your average paint-by-numbers late 90s TV match. Slaughter comes out and awards Owen the European Title which, surprisingly, DX sells like it's actually a big deal. RATING: Is the European Title the most useless, meaningless title since the Western States Heritage Title?
  15. TravJ1979
    This was nothing as a match, but it was a fun and enjoyable brawl. Chainsaw Charlie is an exaggerated Terry Funk at "goofy selling." RATING: Enjoyable.
  16. TravJ1979
    Watching this 18 years later, DX is obnoxious in a whole other way than intended. HBK even tries to kayfabe get out of jobbing a title. RATING: Yawn Michaels.
  17. TravJ1979
    RIP BOBO. RATING: Houston no longer has the problem of wearing that tux.
  18. TravJ1979
    This is the correct way to do the heel promo Nash should have done. Great stuff. RATING: Prime WCW Jericho.
  19. TravJ1979
    Macho pulls up and jobs to the trunk before finally getting out to the ring and calling out the NWO. Almost everybody shows up for this shit show with Hogan trying really hard not to be shown up. RATING: Almost as boring as Lance Storm.
  20. TravJ1979
    Typical smug, insincere (not in a good "heel" way more of a "they pay me to say this corny stuff") Nash. Maybe he would have landed the power bomb better if his legs weren't as fragile as peanut brittle. RATING: How old was that Farley skit by this point?
  21. TravJ1979
    Long winded JJ finally gets around to telling us the power bomb is banned. The crowd turned before he even made the announcement and erupted in boos once he got around to it. RATING: Did he say Terminal Prosecution?
  22. TravJ1979
    Perfect Goldberg match. That spear looked especially devastating. RATING: Goldberg looks like a ferret.
  23. TravJ1979
    Early Nitro girls. Really Late Gene Okerlund. It averages out. RATING: Many a Niro Girl were groped that night.
  24. TravJ1979
    I went in thinking I had previously liked this, but if that is the case, I have no idea what was wrong with me. One of the weakest AJPW mains I've ever seen. Disjointed, slow. It's like the strong style version of Ospreay/Ricochet, but in super-slow motion. RATING: My son was mad because the "green guy" won.
  25. TravJ1979
    Hard to watch. Past prime Savage and Luger slowly, plodding around having struggling to have some semblance of a match. Luger's forearm near the end looks terrible. NWO comes down, yada yada. RATING: Not sure if I yada yada'ed over the best part or not.
