...TG Posted June 20, 2019 Report Share Posted June 20, 2019 Interesting - the full version of Fantastics/Sheepherders drops two days after Bryan namedrops the Sheepherders on Smackdown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve T Posted June 20, 2019 Report Share Posted June 20, 2019 This is an awesome add to the network, and I don't want to diminish it but I really wish they would add commentary. Tony Schiavone would be perfect for this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt D Posted June 20, 2019 Report Share Posted June 20, 2019 I disagree. I'm only midway through but I'm much happier to hear the crowd booing Wahoo or them being supercharged for Valiant against Ivan without some sort of artificial after the fact commentary overlaying it.

It wouldn't surprise me if Bryan had the inside word that this was coming, since it seems like the exact sort of thing he's geek out about.

Plus having to get voiceover would cause a delay on getting this type of stuff out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rock_Of_Jericho Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 I'm only into the second round right, but I dug the Fantastics/Fabulous Ones match. I'm not sure I'll get through this all in one sitting, but I am so glad to see it (mostly) uncut after all these years. I'm sad the first 5 matches are missing, but glad we got what we got.

Johnny Sorrow Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 It's gotta be killing you people that the most probable reason this turned up was Bruce Prichard. He's back and I'm sure they're making some WWE Network doc about his story I don't care about, so they went deep diving and found him ring announcing this show. Or it's just another "Hey, Holy shit. Look what we found!' moment that actually makes the most sense. My theory is complete nonsense. Hey, it's better than Bix's "It probably wasn't because of me mentioning it, but...yeah, it's cause of me." twitter gimmick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cobra Commander Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 Buzz Sawyer and Rick Steiner... when Rick Steiner is probably the mild-mannered voice of reason in a tag team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt D Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 I'm another hour in and will double down on the no commentary thing. Tully and Arn's chatter and coordination ("Arn, I need your knee!"), Precious' constant yelling, etc. It'd be one thing if we had Jim Ross and David Crockett tripping over each other at the time, but it'd be a crime to dump even someone like Tony over this decades after the fact.

I have no idea what crawled up your ass recently that you've decided to troll me repeatedly on here while avoiding the use of the part of your brain that controls reading comprehension, but I've made it pretty clear that I think it's, at best, "they're following PWO and PWO adjacent people" because it also happened right on the heels of the last time khawk mentioned the cereal video, on top of specific mentions of specific tryout matches that showed up a few weeks later. It's the geekiest fucking regular content WWE puts out, why WOULDN'T they be tracking what the geekiest wrestling video nerds were looking for, especially now that they've made a noticeable effort to drop the common stuff like developmental TV matches out of the rotation? I always make it clear they I'm being at least half facetious with "taking credit," but would it surprise me that they were following us because we know this stuff inside out? Not at all. But it's not "hey, look what we found"in this case because they've had this one digitized for over a decade, which way *exactly the reason I had tweeted that they should upload it.* I dunno why you're being a weirdo about how "it's gotta be killing you people" that...some thing you're baselessly speculating about might have happened maybe? Hidden Gems are good! Be happy! Life's too short to get worked up over your inability to process a blog post over 500 words or someone joking about their good fortune!

PeteF3 Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 Sorrow's all about fun and good times and being chill until someone does it in a way he disapproves of, then the insults come out until he inevitably either slinks away or begs off with the "I was only funnin' ya" excuse.

Tim Cooke Posted June 21, 2019 Report Share Posted June 21, 2019 It's a great **** match. The tournament is a lot of fun with the Fantastics and Sheepherders standing out but really good matches from the RnR Express, Arn/Tully, and a legit surprise in the first Baba/Tiger Mask match.
