Angle brushing off Holly like the jobber he is was classic.

Cole's such a geek.

Headbutts (Standing and falling) and belly to belly suplexes were big in his arsenal. He also used a cradle suplex (Perfectplex w/o the bridge) as a finisher in the WWF.

Yeah. They should have just announced Savio instead of hyping it throughout the show, if they couldn't come up with anyone else good. Can't really think of anybody who they could have used, since the only other major heel was Kane, who they obviously didn't want to use. Speaking of Savio...were the Boriquas dead by then? And who was the guy in the group that had more hair than your average bear? The hairy guy would be Miguel Perez Jr. while the Broicuas were together for the WMXIV Battle Royal.

Simply put.....NO. They could have went with Tom Brandi.

I love that battle royale. I just love the fact that Sean Mooney and Lord Alfred Hayes rip into all of the jobbers during the entrances and the match itself. Plus, Headbanger Thrasher almost won it.

Couldn't Eddy just put all his weight on one foot and come back into the ring that way?

He would have been in the 8 Man Tag at No Way Out but he was replaced by Savio Vega.

I seem to remember the Holiday Wish Tour in Winter of 94-95. My minds fuzzy so it's hard to remember after so long. I remember going to a show in late 1994 where the Main Event was supposed to be Bret Hart vs. Jim Neidhart for the WWF Title. I was looking forward to see the Hart Foundation EXPLODE! However, by the time the show came to town it was Diesel vs. King Kong Bundy fot the Title in a 5ish minute match. Oy.

To be more specific, a lot of people think the push DDP got was in exchange for wife-swappin'. As for the original post's question....uh, Jackie's boobs? Is Bischoff's wife hot, or is this wife swappin' thing a one way street?

With just hours before the Rumble, it seems that every year, one "lower tier" superstar makes it into the Final 4. 2003 --- Well, no one . . . I'd count Batista but he's a hoss. 2002 --- Mr. Perfect . . . c'mon, who saw this coming? 2001 --- Billy Gunn . . . He is the One. 2000 --- X-pac 1999 --- D-Lo Brown . . . had he kept the chest protector, he'd have had a shot. 1998 --- Other than Austin, they all came across like lower tier guys. 1997 --- "Diesel" 1996 --- Kama 1995 --- British Bulldog, could never buy this guy as an RR winner. Plus, he wasn't BIZARRE yet. 1994 --- Headshrinker Fatu 1993 --- Bob Backlund and Rick Martel 1992 --- No one. 1991 --- Brian Knobbs and British Bulldog. 1990 --- Hercules 1989 --- Rick Martel So, which midcarder makes it to the Final 4 this year? My Smark cash is on Rhyno, but I really hope it's Rene Dupree. I mark for the Frenchie Shuffle.

I'd like to see Gowan get thrown over the top rope and have Vinnie Mac come back to the announce table to yell, "ONE FOOT! ONE FOOT!! ONE FOOT!!!"

So we can get the French Happy Dance that ends up causing him to be eliminated. DUH! That'll be my highlight of the night.

Because Angle can't work 50+ minutes, He's getting the hogan treatment here...I.E he'll do this for the troops and draw from #24-27. I'm not claiming he'll go 50 minutes . . . I figure he'll go 20 minutes before getting bamboozled and chucked out. And the jive about him doing for the troops vertainly came across as a bit insincere . . . he wants it for himself but he'll fall short and get pissed in the upcoing weeks.

Yeah he was. Austin snuck back in and eliminated UT/Vader, then Hart dumped Diesel just before Austin took out Hart. Monsoon said that it would be Austin and the 3 guys he cheated out of the Rumble that would be in the Final Four match.

I'm surprised no one thinks Angle will draw #2 and be guaranteed 2 minutes with Benoit with reference to last year's Rumble included. My 4 will be: Benoit, Goldberg, Christian (Schmoe of the night since I'm not sure if Rhyno is even in it), and Orton.

Is there a silent 'e' in Schmo(e) or no? I can imagine Gould running in, lasting to the end, when Benoit tells him that the Rumble was fixed for him to win. Benoit jumps over the top rope and all 30 guys enter the ring and present him with a 1st Class ticket to a Title match at WrestleMania. Gould will cry, JR will stand up and cheer, and the Philly crowd will soften up and pass the tissues. That would be kinda funny... All the while repeating over and over in a drunken sounding voice "I can't......fuckin....believe this" Gould: Mark, are you really a wrestler? Henry: No. Gould: WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?!? Think he'll be as obsessed with Molly Holly as he was with Molly on the show? I'd be. Maybe he'll ask her to kiss Trish.

I totally agree......The kid fucked himself over by being an egotistical scumbag. He may have one leg, but that doesn't give him the right to be an obnoxious bastard. You'd think the kid has gone through enough to know how lucky he was to be in his position. If anything, I'd figure he'd get in trouble for not introducing himself to the boys due to being shy/nervous/star struck.

Another nice review, although I can't believe you didn't comment on Flair taking his pants off during the filming of the Evolution Titan Tron that was on OTR. Orton sure looked entertained.

Unfortunately, since Rico is in, Tommy Dreamer is not . . . and the Rumble is in Philadelphia. I guess Vinnie is quite fearful of an "ECW" chant breaking loose. God forbid.

The Austin video one was originally released in 1997 before the change to the Attitude logo.

I second this . . . but he better do the dance.

I think Kurt Angle will get #2 to give a mini-rematch of last year's WWE Title match. There'll be plenty of time for Heyman's henchmen to come in since I think Benoit will at least make it to the last batch of guys.
