CM Funk's Once a Day *IN DEPTH* Match Review
The Mandarin replied to The Mandarin's topic in General Wrestling
Hey, thanks a bunch. Question for anybody who reads this, what match from the Chris Benoit DVD should I review first? -
I should have known that calling "Bean: The Movie" a cinematic masterpiece would draw backlash. Revised list- Non-Tarantino, non-Kaufman, non-DeNiro, non-Stanley Kubrick, non-Marty S., non-Raul Julia- Top Five. Black Hawk Down, Pleasantville, Road to Perdition, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.. ..and Romero. Okay, so I lied about Raul Julia. Top Five Most Bad-Ass (no, seriously) Actors of the Moment: 1. SCATMAN CROTHERS 2. Tom Sizemore 3. Don Rickles 4. Don Knotts 5. The tall bailiff from Night Court

Both Awesome/Tanaka matches from late 99 are better than anything the WWF did that year. That's not much of an accomplishment, I know, but they were the best ECW matches I've ever seen. ..that's still not much to brag about, so let me say this: Awesome/Masato > your house. ..I'm assuming you have at least two bathrooms and a dishwasher.

Yeah, you're right about the delay in the Royal Rumble. That would be a long time just standing in the ring. I say just re-vamp the entire thing. Make it a lot harder to eliminate opponents. Why not have a system like the submission thing where you have to tap buttons to dump your opponent over the top? The way it is now (just chopping your opponents near the ropes) isn't too realistic. I say have a submission-like system to dump opponents, so you'd have to battle back from near-elimination. Even better, if two opponents were trying to eliminate you, you'd have to fight off both of them by rapidly button mashing. You could also have the wearing-down of body parts come into play. If you have a leg in the yellow, it would be a lot harder to hook the top rope with your foot while going over. If you have an arm in the red, then you couldn't manage the strength to pull yourself up while dangling over the floor. I say that would be a lot better than what it is now.

He finally learned how to work WWE style. Oh, I'm awful.

So what is it Generation Next do anyways? I forget who the members are already. Briscoes vs. Low Ki/Homicide sounds great, Samoa Joe wrestling is always a thumbs up and what I've heard about the Havana Pitbulls (best tag team in the world) makes it sound like their match against the best tag team that I know of (SCS), sound pretty damn fine.

Remember that trivia contest Lance Storm had going on? Well, it appears to be over. I wasn't even close.

Holy shit, you got me dead on. Especially the part about my self-esteem, too.

Kamala was comical during last night's segments but it turned to shit because none of the divas knew how to work with him (not like they should be expected to). Making funny noises at a brick wall can only be hilarious for so long.

Sounds good, but they left one important thing out: FIX THE CLOCK ON THE IRON MAN AND ROYAL RUMBLE MATCHES. I don't want to play a ten minute Iron Man. I want to play a 60 minute Iron Man. And I don't want to wait ten seconds between entries. I want to wait 1:30 between entries. At least they could have it be optional.

Yeah, do me too. ..don't call me a fatty, though.

The OAO Raw Thread - 7/26/04 - 60 Minute Iron Man
The Mandarin replied to DerangedHermit's topic in The WWE Folder
Uuh.. WMX7? When did Austin ever tap twice in 1 match? He tapped to a Crossface/Walls of Jericho combo once in June 2001, so he kinda tapped to both holds. ..doesn't really count, though. -

Between the end of the Kamala stuff and the iron man match, what happens? -

I hope I didn't waste buying SummerSlam tickets for a HHH/Edge title match. I can live with them fighting somewhere else on the card, just not over the title in the main event. Orton/Benoit, please. -

Andre Agassi is getting served. Both literally and figuratively. -
Monsoon and Heenan had unmatchable chemistry. I must say Joey Styles and Joel Gertner are guilty pleasures, though.

Cool/Historic Stuff You've Seen Live
The Mandarin replied to Boner Kawanger's topic in General Wrestling
That's scary considering it's the loudest TV pop I've ever heard (although in person, Rock vs. Hogan was very, very loud). -
Yup, true story. Nancy couldn't apologise enough. *rimshot* Sadly enough, I only got that after the *rimshot*, not before it.

Jason Alexander, small jar of holy water to the bald spot at the back of his head. I personally liked the 18th century porcelain doll attack on Ted Danson's ear more.
