  1. Yeah, either Crash or Dean (I don't recall when he lost the belt to Crash). X-Pac wasn't LHW champ until he beat Jeff Hardy in the summer.

     

    A quick review of the title history shows Crash won it a few weeks prior to the show.

    then Jerry Lynn beat Crash, before dropping it to Jeff. anyhow, this was probably the WM I had the most fun watching live . It was me and my high school best friend at my house. We were just going crazy the whole night. This was like the culmination of the Attitude era that we went through high school watching, so it was special to us. I still have the vhs that I recorded it live. Wish I could find the original dvd for 7.99 too. Don't have the anthology dvd set, but I won't record it off 24/7 since they cut off a match, plus I hate the logo blurring. I guess I should watch my live vhs and transfer it to dvd.


  2. I'll always mark out for video packages showing all of Undertaker's victims at WrestleMania through the years, but whoever decided to have Shawn Michaels kick a tombstone with "16-1" on it probably also set in motion the wheels for the whole "25th anniversary of WM" deal.

     

    If you're hell-bent on ending (... or "burying") the Undertaker's undefeated streak at WrestleMania, shouldn't you kick a tombstone that says 16-0?

    Great point Tino.


  3. And boo for dubbing over the Demolition theme. They use it in the Rumble anthology DVD, so why can't it be used here?

    The WrestleMania Anthology came out first, and at the time they didn't have the rights to use it.

     

    When it came time for the Rumble Anthology, they managed to get the rights, and thus they were able to use it.

    Yea but they could have changed it for 24/7, but I guess tehn they'd have to redo the whole show and edit out all the "WWF" references. Actually they could have just inserted the match segment in there with the proper theme.


  4. Ha, the guy in the crowd with the flower mask is wrestlecrap's own blade braxton.

    I thought I was the only one to notice. I knew it was him when I saw the mask, because WC just had footage of him wearing the mask for a recent Indy appearance as a manager. I should have known he'd be there, it was in Kansas City after all. He kept looking at himself on the HD tron all night long though.

     

    The show was pretty entertaining. The Flair beatdown went over well, but makes you want to see Jericho/Flair instead. Gotta love him stealign Flair's shoes abnd throwing them in the crowd (where from the looks of it, quite a fight broke out in the stands to obtain them) The Rolex smash was a nice added touch, and props to Lawler for remembering Shawn giving that watch to him last year. The Shawn stuff was great, nice history lesson there. He needs to go full on heel for awhile it would be quite awesome and he could even get a title reign out of it.

     

    Orton for once looks like the heel in the feud. Someone in creative must have noticed how much HHH was looking like the heel. And yea Steph took the DDT right on. I was waiting for the punt too, I must admit.

     

     

    For once actual Build for Mania, that ALMOST got me excited for it.


  5. The Outsiders has their own set made after Hall and Syxx lost the titles to the Steiners.

    actually those new belts debuted months before the steiners beat syxx and hall. Inexplicably on the night of the title change, syxx and hall wore the old tag belts. So I guess WCW tried to act like we hadn't seen those belts before and the outsiders had them made after the title loss. Before SB, the outsiders actually had won the titles back and then wore both, the steiners quickly regained them (despite friction between the steiners by way of scott being a glory hog, setting up the turn), and took both belts, so that's why they had them at Superbrawl.


  6. The last two have been pretty damn funny, although my friends and I still lose it with the black guy being interviewed about Mysterion. I've been trying to find a picture when his head is cocked to the side and that lil' smile.

    Vista's snipping tool is pretty rad

    Yea, that was great to see SP referencing that newsclip about people saying they saw a leprechaun from a few years ago. Jimmy Kimmel shows it on his show every St. Pat's day.

     

    For those who don't know, there was this video online from a news broadcast a few years ago, where these people in a town claim they saw a leprechaun at night. First they showed a sketch (in reality a child's drawing) Then some lady yells "it's probably a crackhead!" At one point, a black man is shown yelling "Everyone who saw a leprechaun, say yeah!"and looks exactly like the pic above. So SP basically parodied it.

     

    Sorry if everyone knew, but I thought I was the only one to get that reference since no one mentioned it directly.

     

     

    But I enjoyed the episode okay. Not the best, but nice to see Prof. Chaos return.


  7. Again offtopic, but on last night's Kimmel, actor Chris Mintz-Plasse (AKA McLovin) was teh second guest, after Cena. He told a story about presenting an award to Harrison Ford and how he gave this crazy funny speech. He saw Ford again the next day on the set of Kimmel's Parody video "I'm f*cking Ben Affleck" and Ford told him "Your speech was f*cking hilarious" This is notable only because the ABC censors must have been asleep and didn't bleep it out. Now Chris was doing a bad Ford Impersonation, but you could clearly hear the f-bomb there. Weird to see, since the show is taped earlier in the evening and all.


  8. Kimmel was awesome when he first started. It was when ABC cut him off at the knees and the show got pushed back because of the war in Iraq, it started to suffer.

    Yea its been kind of tame recently. But I like his interview style and the fact that most of the guests wind up talking about something other then the thing they are promoting. Guillermo and Uncle Frank usually make the show for me. Though they definately miss something with the untimely death of Veatrice.


  9. I'm really into this show now, it grew on me as the first few weeks went bye. Chapter 5 was absolute gold, though Kenny and April hooking up so soon into the series is kind of weird. Ferrel is awesome in his role, he even did a "whooo" to go along with the Flair look, this week.


  10. I am quite clearly, hotness bias aside, the only one that loved Alexis. Maybe it was the arrangement but I think she rocked that shit. Performance of the night was far and away Matt G. though. I'm not sure if it's because he seemed to get a more indulgent backing section but that song came off like gangbusters. I think Adam went out on a limb with his performance but I can't say I liked it even though I didn't hate it. Kris and Scott did well too.

     

    IMO tops to go home are Alison, Rounds and Michael.

    No Alexis was good I though, she's been getting dogged by the judges lately, but she is way talented. Anoop finally had a good week. I am sick of Emo Boy, but to me Sarver deserves to be cut tonight. He didnt' even pull of country convincingly and that should be a strong suit for him. Plus he talks back to the judges way too much. That being said, all the country fans likely voted for him so we'll probably get a strange cut tonight. And I though Matt was kinda weak last night, the Justin Clone thing is getting old fast for me.


  11. I love the custom music option, EXCEPT that the song ends abruptly before the 1st pitch. Would it have been so hard to fade it out like they do in real life?

    Agreed.

     

    Though the coolest thing happened after a game once, they showed the highlights and went to the final wrap up screen with boxscore and "Jive Soul Bro" started p;aying (its on my ps3 hdd), but they made it sound like it was playing through the stadium speakers. Awesome. Now I want Yankee Stadium to play this song after every game, after NY,NY of course. Actually it would be cool if you could edit the song played at the end to NY,NY.

     

    But anyhow still cool


  12. I guess Mick Foley will have to find someone else to make fun of in future books.

     

    Great point. It's going to be hard to go back and read Foley's old books that are full of Test jokes.

    Mick actually must have really liked him to make those jokes. Although I think it had to do with Mick not wanting to hurt Al Snow's feeling any more. Mick also claimed once that Stacy felt sorry for Martin after reading Mick's jokes, leading to them becoming a couple.

     

    In any event, sad news. Not to be taken lightly.


  13. I feel kind of bad for Jasmine, she was at least better then Sarver and tattoo girl. Jorge was an obvious cut here. Gotta loves Simon's reaction to Seacrest asking if they are going to save Jorge, he just went "No." deadpan. That had to make Jorge feel better. :lol:

     

    Hope next week's theme is a good one.

     

     


  14. The Roots is the best thing this show has going for it.

    Agreed, the improvised songs bit they did about random Audience members was awesome. They even did country!

     

    Still like Kimmel more, but Fallon is funny, depending on his guest. His monolouges still need polishing, maybe when he stops being so nervous.


  15. The option to add your own music is awesome. I can't explain how cool it was to see Mariano departing the bullpen in a cool camera cut, as "Enter Sandman" started to play. Plus I gave Batista's theme to Johnny Damon when he walks to the plate just like in real life. Of course I gave the Wolfpac theme to Giambi even though he's no longer on my team.

     

    Hitting is still tough though, you gotta really work the count and be selective. Though even when I make contact, it always seems to be a flyout.


  16. Noticed that Perfect has the redone version of his theme from 2002. I figured that since they used it on his dvd menu. Bulldog also has the fake theme he had in Sd vs Raw 06.

     

    Nice to see Fink say "and now the man who drew number 1", plus the commetary is more specific. like when Yokozuna entered, King said " Here comes Yokozuna! Hes my pick now"


  17. Finally the PS3 demo arrived on PSNetwork. I played the Rock-Austin relive match. Kinda hard getting used to a new control scheme. I need to keep playing to get hang of it. Is it just me, or is there not too many moves in the game? Maybe I just don't know how to do moves, but it seemed rather limited compared to SD vs Raw 09.

     

    Also played Hogan vs Andre and it was fun, with Heenan constantly interfering, so I had to kick his ass a bit.


  18. There's probably more to it, but a week or so after Summerslam, I remember there was a Saturday Night Raw where Taker & Kane were pissed at Vince or something, and they were doing run-ins for every match and destroying whoever was out just to ruin the show. I believe Rock was one of the victims, and he was one of the few people, along with Shamrock and Mankind in coming weeks, to really fight back. That, combined with him apparently distancing himself from the Nation, just made the crowd start to take a liking to him, especially when he was eventually facing heels like D'Lo and Mark Henry in October.

    No actually that's pretty much it.


  19. -When you see a set-up ladder and want to climb it sllllooooooowwwwwlllllllllyyyyyyyyy...

     

    -See that folding table over there? You want to put somebody through it, don't you?

    I concur, last week as we were clearing out my store for final closeout, we had this huge ladder, I did infact feel like doing a moonsault off it onto a coworker or costumer. Fortunately, I am not too keen on climbing ladders and heights, plus am not athletic enough to do a moonsault.

     

    Does doing a bad Savage impersonation everytime I am at a graduation count?
