Suggestions for matches, angles, or shows...
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin replied to a topic in General Wrestling
Savage v DiBiase, Wreastlefest 88 - It was cut off the commercial release so it's only available on "Macho Madness". -
T-Mac will NOT make Houston a top 3 team. They'll be no better than they were. And Indiana would be dumb to do any huge deal outside of something to get rid of Harrington. They had the best record in the NBA they don't need THAT big a rehaul.

Best North American Match Tournament
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin replied to a topic in General Wrestling
1)Austin vs Rock-WM 17 (24-7) 5)Bret vs Owen-WM 10 (30-1) 42)Bret vs Bulldog-Summerslam '92 (17-14) 2)Bret vs Austin survivor series 96 (24-7) -
I like the houston deal for the Magic. Stevie makes up T-Mac's scoring and they add grit with Cato and some skill with Mobley. And no way does T-Mac make Houston a Western Conference finalist.

The Article that cost Luger the WWF Belt
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin replied to cawthon777's topic in General Wrestling
Doesn't make sense. Bret and Luger were both mega-over so if Bret won thanks to help form Hennig...wouldn't that make Bret heel? -
Similarities and differences between wrestlers
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin replied to a topic in General Wrestling
Here's an unusual one: Kurt Angle and Curt Hennig Similarities - Both were great heels who got over soon after debuting - Both were given undefeated streaks - Both were great wrestlers who stood out cause of that at the itme of debut - Both had amateur backgrounds - Both were runners up in a royal Rumble won by the top politican of the era(HHH/Hogan) - Both had a career-threatening injury yet still went out and put over the big star(Bret/Brock) - Both came back after a while but got reinjured and again went out putting over a rising star(Shawn/Eddie) Differences - Angle got through HHH's politics and won numerous World title while Hennig couldn't get past Hogan - Hennig eventually came back and had a few more decent-good years(although Angle will attempt to as well) - Hennig could play a good face, Angle has trouble with it -
I'm interested in: "RAW Vol 22 - 6/23/97,6/30/97,7/7/97 RAW Vol 23 - 7/14/97,7/21/97 RAW Vol 24 - 7/28/97 RAW Vol 25 - 8/11/97,8/18/97" Are those 5$ each?

Which one of these guys Gets a Dvd release first ?
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin replied to a topic in General Wrestling
Sad thing is I could think of more good Haku matches than I can for anybody up there barring maybe Booker. -
By the IWC, Who is is the most Overrated Wrestler
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin replied to a topic in General Wrestling
I maintain that Jericho didn't benefit the cruiser divison at all and I also maintain he's hella overrated. But I will agree that some of his best recent work was with Christian. Christian, a guy who it took 15 minutes at WM20 to figure out 'gee golly Jericho has a knee injury, maybe I should do something with that'. He's gone so downhill since E&C broke up, it's sad. -
By the IWC, Who is is the most Overrated Wrestler
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin replied to a topic in General Wrestling
A: Jericho/Juvi and Jericho/Malenko was teh best WCW had by FAR in 98. The Cruiser divison wa skilled cuz Bischoff didnt push anybody from teh divison and let it get stale. B: ALOT of people on this board, unfortunatly. Jericho/Dean was an awesome feud but the matches weren't anything special. Jericho/Juvi had betetr matches but a worse feud. And after Jericho left the picture, the cruiser division died since he didn't give a shit about the belt post GAB. And how can anyone possibly call Christian a good worker? He couldn't work a freaking cage match with using a rest hold. -

TheOriginalOrangeGoblin replied to a topic in General Wrestling
I dont understand how you think he killed the cruiser divison. And Austin is the only one who rivals Angle for Most Overrated in the past 5 years. I think Jericho got stuck with overrated wrestlers and thats why those matches didnt meet your expectations. He single handely is convincing smarks Christian is a great worker. Jericho should get an award for that. Let's see, 1997 features amazing cruiser action from the likes of Eddie and Rey. 1998 features boring cruiser matches with Jericho. His character and promos were fantastic but he harmed that division mroe than helped it. And who in the blue hell considers Christian a good worker? -
By the IWC, Who is is the most Overrated Wrestler
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin replied to a topic in General Wrestling
Because he's considered a great worker but where are all these "great" matches to back that up? Yah he had some great ones with Benoit and Rock, and one good match with HHH. A decent, yet wildly overrated, match with HBK and some good stuff in WCW and Japan. But he also killed WCW cruiser division, underperformed in several "supposed to be good" matches with Austin and Angle among others. He rests way too much when working heel and his mic work hasn't impressed me in recent times. He's good and is a pretty good worker but he's nowhere near elite or as good as the net considers him. -
Matches that were surprisingly good
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin replied to Vampiro69's topic in General Wrestling
Big Bossman vs Barbarian, Rumble 91 Ron Garvin vs Greg Valentine, Rumble 90 -
First Clash of 96 was the Heenan thing, I have it on tape uncut. It's really cool and Pillman was way ahead of his time with his smark/mark loose cannon stuff. Even in his book Austin writes how no one, not the wrestlers or front office, knew what was real and what wasn't.

For marks Jericho might be underrated but when it comes to smarks and the net Jericho is mega overrated. -

Jericho. Jericho. And Jericho. -
That's a perfect deal for Orlando. If LA offers that, the Magic would be idiots to say no.

The OAO Hidden Gems Thread
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin replied to Lord of The Curry's topic in Television & Film
Sounds a helluva lot like "Gang Related" with Jim Belushi and 2 Pac. -
BTW if Hogan kicks Nick Carter's ass too. I'll have even more respect for him.
-
I'm pretty sure hogan set up the anthem gig since he's been a regular at TB gams for 10 years. But Hogan is now officially god for that.

I don't like Warrior but his matches with Savage, Rude and Hogan are LEAPS AND BOUNDS ahead of anything Dreamer's ever done. So yes Warrior is right when it comes to Dreamer.
