    I always felt like this was a pretty surreal match. Reed plays the face in this right?

    Back during the Monday Night Wars, they hyped thing from segment to segment because they were so afraid of people switching.

    It put him over to us hardcores. For WWF Fans, TV pushed the Hogan-Sid finish. How important was it to the WWF? The doctored the audio to support their Mania main event plans. John As someone who was a 10 year old kid in 1992, albeit one who was pretty contrary, I feel like at the time, they put over the sheer miracle of what Flair did in a big way, and a lot of that was Heenan and the post match interview.

    Did the Sid squash match from 1/25 Superstars not make it on the set? That one really stood out for me considering how amazingly over Sid was as a face. It's one of the biggest WWF reactions of that era that I can remember.

    It's funny. As a kid, I always remembered there being a show where Dibiase GIFTS Sherri to Shawn as an act of recognition for his heel turn. But it never happened. It's just one of those things I remember falsely.

    What killed the angle was "God, not hogan again. Didn't we just get rid of him!"

    Part of me has always theorized that one reason why WCW started to decline was Eric leaving the announcer's booth. He was the only one who knew what was going on in advance a lot of the times and where things were supposed to be going, so while he wasn't a good announcer by any means, he was able to convey the storyline, even when what was going on didn't make a whole lot of sense. He could tell us what it was SUPPOSED to mean.

    It did slow them down though. There was a moment of nervous laughter.

    From the looks of the SD Spoilers, they're hyping a few big matches for the live SD in advance at least.

    WWECW in 2009 is one of my favorite wrestling shows ever. Also, who just looks at Raw? With WCW, it'd be nuts to just look at Nitro (or even WCW SN before that) when the B shows were where some of the best TV matches were. Traditionally all the best WWF stuff was on PTWs or the televised house shows, by a WIDE margin. It was such a huge loss when they went off MSG in 92. I've seen most of 1984 Mid South TV now and I know I'm missing the best match stuff without the sister show.

    then he should be the anonymous GM "By God, King! The Undertaker has learned how to possess the internet!"
  12. Matt D
    He actually said that Vader was "TOTALLY safe." and really stressed it.
  13. Matt D
    I really hope they save teaming Punk and Cena until Survivor Series.
  14. Matt D
    The crowd turned him as much as anything.
  15. Matt D
    I don't want to step in the middle of this with a vaguely unrelated question, but did they change the finish at Mania when the Edge injury became apparent? Or was Edge always going over?
  16. Matt D
    They need to turn Miz face.
  17. Matt D
    Of course it was a logical decision, that was the problem with it. Vince should have been so freaked out over Punk leaving with the title that he was unable to think logically, even if it was only for one week. I should make you all read my Montreal Manifesto post again.

    If we could sum up this entire note with one sentence..........
  19. Matt D
    Or Ziggler, past a twitter comment, saying that he was now the #1 guy on Raw since he had the IC Belt.
  20. Matt D
    It was also on Smackdown and not Raw. Remember, Christian (and I'm the biggest Christian fan we have) has main evented the last 4 WWE PPVs on the SD side.

    Speaking of sigs and what have you: Bix can you update yours with the new site/your page there? It's a bit of a quagmire to get through using more conventional means.
  22. Matt D
    I think the most interesting thing about it is how they've course changed from what they initially wanted to do (get HHH over and give Cena a hot summer opponent) to create sort of a squishy medium.
  23. Matt D
    Waaaay back in the dark ages of the internet, message boards didn't have user-names attached to them. A lot of times it was just a number/id, so you had to sign a name to make people realize it was you. I figure he just kept that habit over the years.
  24. Matt D
    This is the very, very tail end of Watts, right? I just wonder how THAT meeting went.
  25. Matt D
    I want to say WWE Classics On Demand have said that that 91 doesn't exist, but I don't remember.
