Is the sub-heading too subtle? Justice, some sort of comments would be nice. Thank you.

"Can't believe I missed this, my apologies for the late reply. Harts young lion style he adopted after going singles meshes really well with Teds veteran heel tactics. " Hart playing a young lion? Eh.... I disagree, they came off as terrible opponents for each other. Ted needs someone that can beat the crap out of him and let him bump and stooge to be effective (see Duggan or Warrior/Hogan types), Bret plays to his style for the one sequence you described(though not very convincingly) before grounding one of the fed's best bumpers and personalities with his match. Bret needs someone that can work out of his holds and stooge to keep his holds interesting(see Henning, Owen, and even Piper), Ted just lays around until it's time to hit the ropes. They just don't compliment each other as workers here, nor do they look interested in doing so; just two workers taking turns doing their thing. "Hart then wears him down and the build up to Dibiase's big counters that turn the matches strides are excellent, such as the big guillotine drop on the ropes. After Brets next comeback when he smashes Ted into the turnbuckle but endes up doing a HUGE front turnbuckle and Sherri rings the bell, the pace is relentless." Like I said things are pretty decent when Bret works in a few of his bumps. Relentless pace? Eh.....not sure how to respond to that one. Oddly enough, Sherri is the MVP of the match. The most effective worker by far. "I can't see much wrong with it at all besides the ending. " The Huge Plancha countout!? That's about the only thing worthwhile to come from the match. "I understand there may be a bit too much ground work and slower action for some tastes" Change to lazy ground work and you'll have a point. Baba/Race (far slower and less capable workers) have made very slow ground sequences beyond interesting by you know....actually doing something aside from laying around until it's rope running time.

I call Tully Blanchard...I mean Tolland Blankhardt.

U2- simply because Bono's nutty ego tripping makes it impossible to even enjoy the occassional decent song they spit out from time to time. I recall that recent HBO special where he gave like a flowery five minute explantation for raising his arms in the air when he sings. WTF? Has anybody heard the annoying Evanescene/Korn Unplugged single? Amy Lee melodramatically belting "Freak on a Leash" is so absurd sounding it's hilarious, Davis actually sounds like a fun goofy vocalist by comparision.

"It looked like it was very easy to move him." He back paddled out of trouble a few times, that's it. The object of good defense is to avoid being hit directly. He took a few clean hits but nothing looked to hurt him. Does that make him Jake LaMotta or something..no, but I certainly didn't see anything to suggest he has a weak chin either. "Kessler's chin has never been tested to begin with, so I can't possibly have the opinion that his chin is good." "but there's no results or any video out there where I've seen the guy get hit with a clean shot on the chin and walk through it. Whether or not his movement is deliberate, I can't tell yet." Uh......which is why I'm saying there's nothing to suggest he has a bad chin. Show me the footage that shows him getting dropped and staggered from guys with weak ko records, and we can come to that conclusion. People are way too quick to throw out the "glass chin" label these days.

Uh no. There's nothing in that match to suggest that Kessler has no chin. The nose bleeding is just one those fluke things that happens. He nevery looked hurt by any of the few shots that landed. Yeah, he backed or turned away to lessen the impact of shots...it's not like he was getting blasted backwards, it was deliberate movement. Andrade's chin looked to be made of Iron however. Kessler(already proven to have power) was obviously hitting him very hard. Calzaghe/Kessler would be interesting and I doubt either one would all out kill the other. I would give Calzaghe the edge by decision, possibly outclassing him, but certainly not dominating him.

Maybe if he was really tall it would work better.

"But part of being a great shooter is finding a good opportunity to get off a shot. " I would say great shot creator, not great shooter. Kobe is a great shot creator, Jordan might have been the best. Dirk is good, great for his size. Nash creates for other people. "The way Reggie Miller could shoot, I wish he would have got a 37 shot game. " Reggie couldn't take 37 because he was mostly a catch and shoot guy who had to move without the ball and find an opening before he could take a shot.

I'm sure Dirk would do fine but I can't see him getting enough good openings or touches to take that many shots at the present. That's one of the things that troubles me about the Mavs, there are times where they look really efficent as a team and others where it looks like everyone has to create their own shot from a bad position. Dirk is a scoring machine but he's not the type that can create off the dribble play after play like a Kobe Brynat; too big for that. Dirk would be unstoppable if he had someone that could get him the ball in his spots time and time again, he's good when has to put it on the floor, but not nearly as good as when he's catching and shooting on the post. I don't doubt Nash would and probably could get that much if he wanted but that's not his game.

That's the one, I also believe he does a great deal of the vocals on "Bleak."

Kobe's scoring streak is no doubt impressive but yeah, it would be nice if it was against contenders in more important games.

"They did leave it one time, though; I totally marked." Evidently, the one match of yours I've read. Seriously, only once? Wow. It must have just stuck with me.

I'm more of a fan of Steven Wilson, the producer. His work with Opeth is incredible and he was a big part of those album's success, even co-writing at least one of the songs if I'm not mistaken.

I keep wandering how the cool, seemingly all knowing guy from Season 1 turned into such a damn sucker. I'm hoping this goes somewhere and leads to some sort of redemption for Locke, but eh....

No, I just recall all of your matches being in puke green font. At any event, great match.

Not sure who wrote it(Stephens/Landon) but the finish of the tag match suddenly turned pretty epic. It brings to mind Misawa/Akiyama(or Kobashi) vs. Kawada/Taue reversed with the faces isolating and destroying the super heel. By the time Stephens eventually falls it feels like the faces conquered a mountain. Plenty of story progression with some face payback and possible team split.

NO!!!

Tuesday Night Fights was great. Plenty of fun matches with journeymen and "up and comers" trying to catch a break. It dropped off in quality during the final years though.

Brock Sampson from the Venture Brothers should be the only animated exception, he must be added. From Buffy drop Glory: Mind sucking is fucking lame. Plus all you need to do is kill Ben, which unlike Buffy wouldn't be a problem for most of the people on this list. From Oz drop Said: Too much of a nice guy.
