  1. Yeah, X-8 wasn't bad but it was nothing special outside of Hogan-Rock (which was only special because of the atmosphere around the match, the match itself kind of sucked). All of the other matches felt thrown together. I think the worst for me would be; XV, II and XIII with IX close behind.
  2. I just got Homicide: Life on The Street Season Four on DVD and man, what a good show. There isn't a weak spot in the cast. Why do I have to discover these shows almost a decade after they've been cancelled?
  3. Oh man, I loved The Wallflowers back in the day. One of my top 5 or so favorite bands when I was 10. Their career sort of went downhill after Bruce Springsteen did "One Headlight" with them at The VMAs one year and completely upstaged them.
  4. Don't have much to add since I haven't seen WrestleMania 23 but why isn't WrestleMania 2 getting mentioned when talking about crappy shows? Yeah, I know nostalgia gets in the way but come on, that is a seriously shitty show.
  5. I think The Genius Vs Kamala beats it. I can't remember the last time I saw The Genius on a card wrestling. Probably the early 90s. And who's going to play the face in that one? Either way, the fans win. You get Kamala The Friendly Savage or a babyface Genius.
  6. Electric Light Orchestra- "Telephone Line"
  7. Yeah but Glen Jacobs wasn't as good as is as Kane as he was as Issac Yankem. He was still pretty green back then IIRC.
  8. I forgot about a big one that has to be on the 90s revival tours; Live. I was watching an episode of Homicide: Life on The Street on DVD and at the end they played "I Alone". Live, what a shitty band.
  9. I still maintain that it's actually a decent show outside of the crappy main event. You've got the ladder match, a fun Hakushi-123 Kid opener, Bret Hart performing another miracle and carrying Issac Yankem to a *** match. Barry Horowitz wins again! And everything else is either decent enough or too short to really suck. Even The Undertaker Vs Kama manages not to suck. Hell, I'd go as far as to call it a good show.
  10. Gerry Rafferty- "Right Down The Line" Talk about a guy whose career was ruined by MTV. Rafferty was(is?) one ugly motherfucker. Solid soft rocker though.
  11. Does RAW is Nitro count? (The episode early on in the Invasion, where the main event between Buff Bagwell and Booker T, was announced by Scott Hudson and Arn Anderson)
  12. Harry Shearer, Michael McKean and Christopher Guest as Spinal Tap on This is Spinal Tap. I fucking die every time I listen to it.
  13. It's between '88, '91 and '94. IMO, there isn't a bad pick in the bunch. '88 is the weakest but most 80s PPVs are good for nostalgia and it has plenty of memorable moments. '91 is a show that might not be great from a workrate perspective (Outside of the awesome IC title match obviously) but is a hell of a lot of fun. '94 is a bit underrated and is really only marred by the silly main event and a boring as hell Lex Luger-Tatanka match.
  14. Really. Were the original Chipmunks that great? Same thing with Underdog. I'm more worried about Jason Lee's career going down to the toilet because of doing those two back to back.
  15. I'll vote for '94, solely because it was the first pay per view I ever ordered (well my parents ordered for me, more accurately) I'd like to say I ordered it for Bret-Owen in a steel cage but I ordered it for Undertaker Vs Undertaker. I wanted to see how they pulled it off and you know what? I enjoyed that match as a six year old mark.
  16. I almost watched it, sort of thinking it would be some kind of soft porn but then saw the TV 14 rating and decided against it. What exactly is it?
  17. Butterbean Vs The Big Show- book it now, Don King!
  18. Hahah- yes, that's right. And Bret Hart also retired semi-abruptly right before that pay per view (Souled Out 2000). At least Tank Abbott didn't win the title at the pay per view....
  19. I'm trying to forget about their "exciting" feud with N.W.O. 2000. Which pretty much culminated in then U.S. Champion and #2 heel in the company, Jeff Jarrett jobbing to George "The Animal" Steele, Tito Santana, and Jimmy Snuka all in one episode of Nitro.
  20. I don't know where the Bagwell shoots angle was going but I think it somehow led to a "Loser Leaves Town" match with Curt Hennig where Bagwell won and Curt Hennig wrestled again the next night.
  21. It came on here at 3 P.M. on Friday afternoons which is about as bad of time I could think of.
  22. WCW ripped off WWF a lot during Russo's first stint booking with them (October '99 to January '00). Anybody remember Buzzkill?
  23. I'm not too surprised at Knocked Up doing so well. I mean it is being nearly universally praised as the "comedy of the summer"
  24. We can't leave out The Gin Blossoms or Toad The Wet Sprocket. And even though they still have the occasional hit, The Goo Goo Dolls got to be on there. I saw Better Than Ezra two years ago for free downtown and I'm almost embarrassed to admit that they were a half decent live band. Everybody else I went with thought it was horrible but I thought they were decent though a tad forgettable.
