  1. This match didn't reach the emotional peak of some of the top end joshi this year but execution wise, this was fabulous and really does play out like the type of match Meltzer would love. This had great spots but also had better than average selling for a "drop bombs" type match. Ending run was dramatic and Toyota and Kong both played their roles so well.
  2. I thought this was very good and stiff. It is not something that will make my top 100 or anything but as far as execution of a match, I thought for example it was much more sucessful than the Hart tag on Raw. Hotta has been really good this year and is featured in 3 of my top 50 matches.
  3. I thought this was very good and felt like a relatively big moment for Candido. Candido was bumping well and Tracy showed some great fire.
  4. Tough match to rate due to camera work. MOst of what we saw looked fun but I feel like we can't get a true accurate vibe on how good the match really was.
  5. I couldn't get into this very much. Seemed like a pretty basic generic juniors style match to me.
  6. Cornette and Bob go into great hype job about Thanksgiving Thunder in a fun segment showing the backstory.
  7. All the bright spots are returning to Memphis. The set up between Dundee and Dream machine was presented well and the hanging of Christopher brought great sympathy to him.
  8. IRS Segment was bizarre You can feel some tension between Bret and Shawn already in the Heartbreak Hotel segment and Shawn is an awful interviewer. This was a mess overall.
  9. Excellent match. Vader looked like a monster. Dustin timed his comebacks amazingly and looked strong in defeat. Too short to reach upper echelon of matches for year but one of the most fun matches of the year.
  10. Really nice elbow drop as we join this and Public Enemy regain the titles. The promo Cactus does is fine but not one of the best we have seen.
  11. Backlund snapping and calling out Bret was so much better way to build up this feud than the Harts yapping and Owen feeling like a manager. Daveys outfit is atrocious.
  12. This was really bad stock Hogan promos including him calling people stinky at all.
  13. Seeing Eddie Gilbert in the title got me confused. Nice to see Dundee back and it is intriguing to try to figure out where he will end up.
  14. Yoko does the scared look real well and it is nice to see him leading up to this match since this really was the last huge profile match of his run.
  15. Finally an angle with the Sandman here that delivers. Sandman played his role well and I loved him lighting a cigarette at every point Woman makes in the promo.
  16. Vince announcement on Savage was a shocking classy move that I did not expect King's court was ok but Backlund looks better going into a title defense snapping and putting people in the chicken wing.
  17. Clunky match and the heat had really diminished for all the major players. For this to be Bret's signature run with the belt, he sure does not look like the ace of a company sometimes.
  18. Vader really seems like the most interesting character in WCW with Flair gone.
  19. I didn't love this that much. I felt the crowd never bought Santo being in true danger as much as they tried and the ending of the third fall was too abrupt with Santo just taking so much punishment and seemingly lucky to roll up Eddy. Throw in a few botches and this falls below classic match status for me. Very good to great match but I was pretty disappointed watching it back in retrospect.
  20. Awesome clips and Morell throwing punches got one of the biggest pops from me so far on the set. Christopher really looked like a star and could brawl with the best of them.
  21. Dink running to first got a chuckle out of me.
  22. Short brutal little match. nagata's submissions looked especially awesome here.
  23. Crazy ass brawl that conveys an out of control nature and intensity missing from all the ECW stuff we have seen so far this year. The camerawork while annoying that we miss so much does work in the confines of the match. All spots were hit cleanly and the legdrop on the hung Cactus looked especially awesome.
