Loss Posted December 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 Jim Ross loves to make chauvinist comments toward Sunny. HOROWITZ WINS! HOROWITZ WINS! HOROWITZ WINS! This was a pretty transparent attempt to recreate the success of the 1-2-3 Kid angle, but it was still fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLIK Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 pretty transparent attempt to recreate the success of the 1-2-3 Kid angle Hm, ya know I never made that connection before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Sorrow Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 I always took it as a recreation of the Jack Hart angle from Florida minus the heel turn, just because Jack Hart was Barry Horowitz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El-P Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 This was a pretty transparent attempt to recreate the success of the 1-2-3 Kid angle, but it was still fun. Do you really think it was ? I mean, Kid beat Razor Ramon who was already a powerful mid-carder who had world title match with Bret Hart. Skip was a comedy gimmick who beat no one yet. I don't see it has the exact same situation. Anyway, it was good to see Horowitz get some TV time, as he was a really good worker (although I liked him better as a heel), but all in the detriment of Candido, who was doomed from day one.

Tim Evans Posted June 10, 2012 Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 I liked this but I agree with El-P, it didn't do much for Skip. I like how Sunny walks to the back talking on the mic and I don't think it was even on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BackToBionic Posted December 27, 2012 Report Share Posted December 27, 2012 Chris Candido is my favourite wrestler of all-time. He was extremely nice to me when I managed to speak to him circa 1998. When I told him he was my favourite wrestler, he spoke to me for almost an hour. So this era is very hard to watch for me. Having said that, even at the time of that conversation, with the WWF run fresh in his mind, he had nothing but nice things to say about most of the people I asked him about, Horowitz included.

Zenjo Posted April 13, 2014 Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 This didn't do anything for either Skip or Horowitz, but it was a memorable C show segment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteF3 Posted October 14, 2014 Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 Ross and Pettingill are in full-blown comedy mode, almost like Cole, Lawler, & JBL today with fewer product and Twitter plugs. This should have led to a semi-sustained push for Barry Horowitz, who had earned one, but he quickly settled into JTTS-dom soon after. Ross and Todd can't help but yammer while Sunny is talking.

ajtroma Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 Other than Vince Russo & Matty In the House, I still have a burning, venomous hatred for Todd Pettingill more than anyone in wrestling history. Losing here actually broke the Body Donnas out of the pack. Instead of being lumped in with all the other new characters getting meaningless TV win after meaningless TV win, we see them now as something different. Sunny is now the bossy, spoiled little brat while Skip is a pussy-whipped little crybaby doofus. Plus, Horowitz deserved some love. Good stuff all around. Except for fucking Pettingill.
