Guest FeArHaVoC Report post Posted August 26, 2002 Why is Rock a phony? He's already pretty much done everything there is to do in Wrestling. Why not move on and try new things? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest kingkamala Report post Posted August 26, 2002 Rock is best to either get out or turn heel. If he gets out he'll be the next Ah-nuld or at least the next Steven Segal If he turns heel his movie career could be over cause the marks wouldn't go out to see the movies and the smarks wouldn't see the movies anyway Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest FeArHaVoC Report post Posted August 26, 2002 Oh yeah, that "phony." Did the job Clean last night for Mr. Lesnar. I wonder how many others in the Rock's position would have? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest SlowChemical6 Report post Posted August 26, 2002 The Rock did turn heel. You guys missed it, but after the cameras went off The Rock cut a mega-heel promo on us. "Finally...The Rock has come BACK...it doesn't matter where The Rock is!" Funny stuff. He kept pounding on the mic and giving us this deranged People's eyebrow until we shut up.

Guest alfdogg Report post Posted August 26, 2002 Hey, I'll be the first to admit that I didn't expect much from HBK/HHH, and I got it shoved back in my face, cause I really enjoyed the match. But *****? Come ON. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Will Scarlet Report post Posted August 26, 2002 This guy is complaining because Keith rated the HBK-HHH match ****? Um...okay. **** seems to be the best rating I have seen for the match, and is generally considered being pretty kind from what I have seen on this board. I would be more inclined to agree with the Dames' **1/2 rating myself. Rating it ***** is just silly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Flying Dutchman Report post Posted August 26, 2002 HBK vs. HHH was *****. Not ****, not even **** 1/2. It was ***** and it was one of the best matches that I have ever seen. I was at the SkyDome for WrestleMania X8, and the crowd at Nassau was just as hot for HBK as they were for Hogan. Maybe even more vociferous, since they were only 20,000 at Nassau and 60,000+ in Toronto. What the hell does vociferous mean? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Mulatto Heat Report post Posted August 28, 2002 Plus, Brock rules. HE'S A HOSS, BAH GAWD!!! No, seriously, he's got the total package. He's got a killer look and he's a great athlete. If you guys wanna mark out for the vanilla midgets, feel free. I like the monsters. It's too damn bad that I saw this AFTER he got banned, because I would have asked him who were the "monsters". Monsters don't get sent out of the ring over the top rope from one kick in my book. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Report post Posted August 28, 2002 *****? ****? What the fuck? These ratings defy everything. **1/2 from Dames was the closest rating to what I feel the match truly was. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bob_barron Report post Posted August 28, 2002 I'd give it ***1/2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest El Psycho Diablo Report post Posted August 28, 2002 Ratings are stupid anyway. So it's criminal to rate HHH/HBK ****, but not Benoit/RVD? Please. All ratings are good for is to nit-pick and squabble about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest chirs3 Report post Posted August 28, 2002 I'd put Michaels/HHH at around ***1/2 or so too... not a classic by any means, but it was pretty darn good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Report post Posted August 29, 2002 When did I say that you had to rate Benoit vs. RVD ****? HBK vs. HHH was exactly the way I envisioned a 30 minute hardcore match between Bradshaw and Jeff HArdy (if he didn't take speed before the match) looking like. Only I think Jeff would sell the back in the second half of the match. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Mulatto Heat Report post Posted August 29, 2002 When did I say that you had to rate Benoit vs. RVD ****? You didn't. But you MUST HAVE, since it goes along with the stupid, horribly unoriginal, pitifully contrived generalizations brought forth by the disgruntled IWC "rebels" who think they're so cute and funny with their quirky little remarks.

Guest kingkamala Report post Posted August 29, 2002 I'd rate HHH-HBK at ***3/4, nowhere near ***** but a hell of a lot better then anyone on this board could expect Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Angle-plex Report post Posted August 29, 2002 HBK vs. HHH was *****. Not ****, not even **** 1/2. It was ***** and it was one of the best matches that I have ever seen. You should go watch some more matches, because you've obviously only seen the past year of WWE. HBK vs Mankind at Mind Games was a MUCH better HBK match, despite the horrible ending.

Guest Some Guy Report post Posted August 29, 2002 I still haven;t seen the match because my friend who has a black bow and I both have Girsl and haven't been free at the same time to watch the damn tape, but I'm finally going to see it tonight and I will take it upon myself to settle this debate. BTW I'm a huge HBK mark but don;t really like HHH so I think I can be somewhat fair, if not totally bias in HBK's favor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Some Guy Report post Posted August 31, 2002 I watched it and thought HHH looked about like he always does and HBK looked pretty damn good for a guy who hasn't worked in 4 1/2 years. He didn't sell the back in the second half of the match because he was "running on adreneline" or whatever I think. I'd give it ***3/4. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest SmarkySmark Report post Posted September 1, 2002 If he was truly "running on adrenaline" he would have killed HHH. I hate how that phrase is thrown around like running on adrenaline happens all the time. I give it ***1/2 also. I downloaded it onto my computer and have watched it twice today just to get a better feel for it. I still think the emotional side of it could have been done better, but I still enjoy the match and will keep it on my computer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest HartFan86 Report post Posted September 1, 2002 Why are people still talking about and quoting what SlowChemcial said when he's been banned for like a week? You think he's going to respond or something. This is kinda funny reading the posts after he got banned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
