They got rid of Stevie because he is not over, failed to become a face, and would harm Victoria's change into the top babyface woman on Raw around WM 20. That's about it. Good move, I say. Stevie, tho a funny guy and all, just isn't interesting to a mass audience in the ring.

Jericho and I share a birthday.

Who was managed by Jimmy Hart in 1995, much like his buddy THE RENEGADE.

I'm back to GL if Guy Gardner gets a shot.

Mean Girls > Shrek 2.

Yeah, I have that already. Although they've watched Blitz/Juvy and the Horsemen/Flock on my computer already. I thought Kidman/Rey sucked and the main event was iffy.

This might be different, but I LOVED the "1....2.....Oooohh!" counts when someone had a nearfall. The ECW crowd really brought something to epic matches. See Raven V. Dreamer in '97, The "Final Battle" before Raven went to WCW. They count along with all the nearfalls/finish at the end.

I found it silly that Eaton & Anderson, a dominant team who held singles titles and multiple tag belts would need Michael Hayes, a shitty wrestler in one of the worst tag teams ever who had the tag straps for about 5 minutes to "help them" beat Williams & Gordy. Not to mention, when Hayes' team finally started getting momentum, Gordy & Williams dropped the tag straps to Windham & Rhodes, thus making the services of Hayes pointless. Watts realized this, I suppose. What did he do? Jobbed Anderson & Eaton to Erik Watts clean at the Clash.

Watts is an idiot. "When Watts was in charge WCW was at its best ringwise". Perhaps. But it's not like he was responsible. Sting, Windham, Anderson, Pillman, Steamboat, Rude, Austin, and the usual were already there. As for Liger, WCW used him much better (albeit only briefly, damnit!) during late 1991 and early 1992, at house shows, too. Putting the WCW Light Heavyweight Title on Flamingo and a HEATLESS Brad Armstrong? Dumb. No top-rop maneuvers? Huh? Pointless and heatless Heel Vs. Heel tag matches? The Barbarian. Nuff said. Erik Watts. Beach Blast's 30-minute main event time limit draw. Sometimes I think Watts was in love with Williams & Gordy and attempted to win their affections by booking every show around them. I'm sure the signing of Scorpio was due to Vader. Ron Simmons: World Champion Michael Hayes: Manager of Eaton & Anderson. There's hundreds of ridiculous Watts ideas to make fun of.

I find it HILARIOUS that people are saying things to the tune of "giving him a chance" and "never really disliked him" and "he's not bad"... IT'S FUCKING X-PAC. Remember, "X-Pac suck? X-Pac sucks?" "Boring..." "OH MAH GAWD King! That's...that's X-Pac! He's joined the nWo!" "oh no X-Pac stole Kane's girlfriend, Tori!" "Yo you dealin' with the X-Factor!" Let's not forget his little run-in to win the X-Divison Title in TNA. I advise this thread to be washed, burned, and closed before any WWE officials see it, and see any remote interest in bringing Sean Waltman back to television.

Haha, "Roses" does have some strange chorus lines/lyrics. Maybe weird, but I dunno about "awful".

Awesome!

Club Dread, one of the worst movies I have ever seen. And I've seen a lot of 'em.

When La Resistance win the tag titles this week on Raw, this "great tag team period" will end.

Watts is brilliant...job Cactus to Simmons...then bring in BUTCH REED as the partner to THE BARBARIAN. "The fans will be scared because Reed will tell Barbarian all the SECRETS of how to beat Simmons! Well, I'll be, Halloween Havoc in October? BARBARIAN Vs. RON SIMMONS! Wait, how can I get Doc and Gordy in the match? They have to be in all the matches!"

Stop bashing the song, it's great. Then again, I'm a "frat boy" so I dunno.

I'm not getting too excited about this. 20 hours a week, it claims. "With a majority" being WWF footage from the 70's to today. I seriously doubt you will "save from having to buy a DVD". I'm guessing we'll get a bunch of RAW/Smackdown! episodes from the previous month. One old PPV (which could be cool, depending if they want to push the Attitude crap (with a blurry logo, tho?) or the old-school WWE... Old Coliseum's on Hulk, Macho, etc. It's not "the wrestling channel"...

This is JUST RIGHT AROUND Bill Watts time... I don't smell his touch on this card, tho, since the Cruiser title wasn't held by a joke, there weren't 40-minute DQ-matches, and Cactus actually wins.

Godspeed. You can have 1990, JHawk...I'm not particularly fond of that year, anyway. Good luck!

Kinda boring. But kinda different. I like hearing "stories", even if they're not all "laughers". Jamal gets on Leno. WM 21~! Let the HYPE BEGIN.

Good report. I think you rated the Evo. Vs. Shelton/Jericho tag match a tad too highly, as it was very slow at parts, the commercial hurt it, the number of "Walls" attempts was a little silly, we had a Trish "music-in", and such. Very good effort by Orton in the match, and Jericho and Shelton were ON. Batista, who had been looking pretty sharp lately, was kinda off his game. About ** 1/2 from me. (Commercial Break Scale)

Hogan fought Big Show in WWE? Wow, I was just sitting around wondering why they never went at it when Hulk came back. Cool! Sure it was on shitty Smackdown! during the Early Summer, tho, right?

Tampa in 6.

The image of Finley surrounded by drunken Leprechauns, such as in "The Great White Hype" has forced me to smile.

More likely, this... Eugene Vs. Garrison Cade is announced for Bad Blood. Backstage, Bischoff announces to Regal... "If Eugene loses, he never wrestles again, and YOU are back to the roster, Mr. Regal!" "If Eugene wins...you're out of a job, forever!" Then, Regal can interfere "accidently" and Eugene is distracted, Cade powerslams him. Cade up for the "worst elbow in the business", and then Regal has a change of heart, shoves him off the top, and costs Cade the match, going full babyface in the process. Backstage, Eugene "celebrates" near Eric and hugs Regal repetitively...Regal hugs him one last time and tells him "he has to leave for a while". The next couple weeks on Raw...Cade and Coach KICK THE EVER LOVING SHIT OUT OF EUGENE. Finally, 3-4 weeks later.....REGAL RETURNS!!! Imagine the monster pop for this?
