It IS!?! I'm down to 7,140 now. This is what I get for actually writing a match plan on a non-PPV show.

Funny, haven't they got an ECW PPV coming up? A PPV Psicosis could appear on? Ditto for Super Crazy. And now, they show interest in employing these two? Coincidence? Methinks not.

So, is that what one of Toxxic's promos reads like to a Yank?

WWF @ Phoenix, AZ - Veterans Memorial Coliseum - June 15, 1987 Bruno Sammartino defeated WWF IC Champion the Honkytonk Man via count-out That's all for the actual day. Seems an odd match for some reason. From the day before... WWF @ New York City, NY - Madison Square Garden - June 14, 1987 Televised on the MSG Network: Prime Time Wrestling - 6/22/87: Rick Martel & Tom Zenk defeated the Shadows when Martel scored the pin with a crossbody Hercules fought Billy Jack Haynes to a time-limit draw Prime Time Wrestling - 6/22/87: The Islanders defeated Paul Roma & Jim Powers when Tama scored the pin with a splash (Best of the WWF Vol. 13) Paul Orndorff pinned the Junkyard Dog WWF World Champion Hulk Hogan pinned King Harley Race in a Texas Death Match at 9:56 after hitting him with the title belt after Race accidentally delivered a diving headubtt onto the belt (Even More Unusual Matches) Prime Time Wrestling - 7/13/87: Outback Jack pinned Jose Estrada with a bulldog at 4:47 Prime Time Wrestling - 6/22/87: Billy Jack Haynes, Davey Boy Smith, & the Dynamite Kid defeated Danny Davis, WWF Tag Team Champions Bret Hart & Jim Neidhart

Current Word Count: 8,000 words. I'm like the anti-DubCee. It's time like these I wish I drunk coffee.

Zacharia Malibu and Christopher Bryte versus Leonardo Rodez and...uhm...Panther. Tag Team Style~!

D'oh. I suck. Hopefully my stuff'll be edited in soon

At this point, Hogan would be a better draw than JBL. At this point Spike Dudley would be a better draw than Crapshaw. Yes, because Armageddon REALLY tanked, didn't it?

Man, this isn't the 70's. Cool people wear them over their shoulders now. Anyway, they should bring in Colt Cabana as Regal's long lost twin brother. Seperated at birth, Cabana was adopted by American parents. But now they're re-united, they can point out the quirks in each other's nationalities. Hilarity would then ensue.

Nah, I see Trik winning personally. He beat Steve Stone last time out (or, I think last time) and I don't see this going anywhere except Hero finding an 'aggresive streak' and turning heel.

Nope. Although the promo may have certain significance on certain situations. On a lighter note, word limits suck.

Okay Loss, I'll take up the gauntlet. Well, I would. But Evo pretty much summer up what I was planning to say. Rewatching the match, I have to agree about the opening. Bradshaw the APA guy would never have taken that amount of punishment, bumped that match and for that long for a guy less physically imposing than him. Like Eddie. JBL HAD to sell for Eddie to get over the fact that he was JBL now, not Bradshaw. And he does a damn fine job of it. It's actually quite surprising at how much he really does make Eddie look a threat. I also agree that JBL played a valuable part in the match. Some members of this board would have you believe that Eddie 'carrying' the match means that he 'was' the match, but JBL plays his part well. That's not trying to flame anyone. That's just the way I've seen JBL opinions. Both men make each other look good. JBL makes Eddie look a threat. Eddie makes JBL look a better wrestler. However... Eddie's bladejob makes the match. If Eddie hadn't bleed so much or not at all, the match wouldn't have been as memorable as it was. It was a good match without the blood don't get me wrong, but it was made memorable (not neccessarily great, but memorable) by the awesome visuals of Eddie bleeding like very few have in WWE/F rings. Ref bump and DQ ending obviously detract from the match somewhat. But again, it does make it a bad match. In this case, the DQ finish actually made sense. A forgotten match of the year but not MOTY level. As has already been said, the Bullrope Match out-ranks this one. Also, when you say in terms of performance what was better, I'd say Eddie's matches with Malenko in ECW deserve ranking on that list...the match that went to a 30 minute time-limit more than the 2 out of 3 Falls. Obviously, that's not the issue, but whatever.

Long: It's gonna be Rob Van Dam versus Rey Mysterio, E C Dubya Rules playas! RVD: Uhm, why? It's not ECW Wrestlemania last time I checked. Long: You were both in ECW, right? RVD: Yeah, and? That was like 4 years ago...8 for Rey. Long: ...well, we want people to buy the DVD. And the PPV. And we'll probably re-label some ECW t-shirts, start selling them. RVD: ... Long: You won't have to actually wrestle. RVD: Ha! Sweet dude! Long: HOLLA HOLLA HOLLA! Money, right there. Any word on how long Angle v. Strong was? Not holding out hope on anything above a minute, but if Strong actually gets some offence I may check the show out just for that.

Holy shit, it's getting over. I don't know whever to laugh or cry. *drinks Pepsi Max*

Call me when someone invents a Somersault Hammerlock. Although, in my defence, I am trying to get into pure wrestling more recently. So, you never know, there may be some hope left for me. (doesn't hold out much hope)

1.) Favorite world title match at the PPV? '92 Rumble. If I that counts. HHH/Cactus at 2000 edges it if not. 2.) Favorite Rumble match? 1992. The line-up was probably the best ever in terms of people who actually meant something to the business. Besides that, it was also a fantastically booked match with superb commentary. And it was cool to see Flair vs. Von Erich, Sid, Valentine etc. again. 3.) Favorite Rumble match elimination? Hurricane in '02 and Bossman clotheslining himself in '92 tie. Taka doesn't count, but if he did then he'd be top. 4.) Favorite mini-match within the Rumble? Too many to choose from. Demolition in '89. Austin/HHH in '02. Warrior/Hogan in '90. Flair/Piper in '92. The Savage/DiBiase vs. Piper/Jake period in '90. 5.) Favorite non-world title, non-Rumble match? Rockers vs. Orient Express, '91. 6.) Favorite pre-Rumble promo? Rock in 2002, because the early year ones were entertaining but kept short, so none stand out on their own really. 7.) Things you hated besides Vince winning the '99 Rumble? 1995 in it's entirety. Chavo vs. Eddie from last year. The ending to the 92 Rumble kinda took the shine off it at first for me. Casket Match in 94.

If they sign New Jack and buy rights to "Natural Born Killaz", a surprise appearance on RAW (in Philly preferrably) would be...well, interesting.

Workrate is over-rated. Decent show. Not enough World Champion for more liking though. I eagerly await the WORKRATE REPORT~! becoming a regular feture that'll no doubt ridicule my lack of sweet science abilities.

Being World Champion would be so much easier if you never had to defend the title. You know, like being ICTV Champion.

"Hey, Hey, Hey" by Elvis Presley is the correct answer

Chelsea.

In terms of match quality, Orton vs. HHH will be better than Batista vs. HHH. In most other ways it'll be better, but Orton is the better wrestler compared to Batista. And that's not pro-Ortonism, anti-Batistaism or being an anti-smark or whatever.

Very argueable, at least in some areas. At least TNA finally realised this was the only chance of exposure in Britain. Here' hoping they don't cause the channel any more problems.

I'm not sure about Rock-like, but I agree he did a very good job. Especially considering he probably had to go longer than he expected. Trish/Lita seemed destined for around 10 minutes before Lita got injured, so Maven probably had to fill some time. And on the subject, credit to Trish for making the best out of a bad situation with Lita.

Guys, he walked 2 miles. He clearly did it for the exercise.
