Guest Dmann2000 Posted September 23, 2002 Report Posted September 23, 2002 You know the one I'm talking about. It was the RAW after Revenge of the Taker. It had the streetfight. The ambulance attack. The Shawn Michaels save. The blowtorch. Brian F'N Pillman. On a personal note, if any of you guys have this RAW, EMAIL ME. I will trade/buy/work for/ to get a copy of this show, recorded in SP.
Guest converge241 Posted September 24, 2002 Report Posted September 24, 2002 this one is up there. I may have it somehwere but i have a room full of suff like that. If i ever come across it on a rainy day ill PM you. My fav is the msg with the Cactus -HHH streetfight
Guest Last Warrior Posted September 24, 2002 Report Posted September 24, 2002 My favourite raw has to be the one after Judgement day of last year. it is the one that culminated in the Jericho/Benoit Vs HHH/Austin tag match. It was an awesome show.
Guest HartFan86 Posted September 24, 2002 Report Posted September 24, 2002 I need this Raw (Revenge of the Taker) as well. If anyone has it in SP, PM me as well.
Guest godthedog Posted September 25, 2002 Report Posted September 25, 2002 i'd like a copy of this as well.
Guest bob_barron Posted September 25, 2002 Report Posted September 25, 2002 If anyone can hook me up- I'll review for 411 and make sure to kiss a lot of ass!
Guest Dmann2000 Posted September 25, 2002 Report Posted September 25, 2002 Remmember I called dibs first
Guest bob_barron Posted September 25, 2002 Report Posted September 25, 2002 Yea but I have an incentive for whomever has it.
Guest Dmann2000 Posted September 25, 2002 Report Posted September 25, 2002 Well that's just cause you've got a spot doing reviews, lucky bastard <_<
Guest papacita Posted September 27, 2002 Report Posted September 27, 2002 Well, I've not a tape trader, but I *do* have most Raws from September 96-September 2000 on tape...this one included.
Guest areacode212 Posted September 28, 2002 Report Posted September 28, 2002 Yeah, I'd like to have this RAW at some point as well. Hmm. If someone would like to make me a tape of this and the Canadian Stampede PPV, PM me. At any rate, when fans list their favorite episodes of RAW, this one is usually mentioned the most.
Guest BAR Posted September 28, 2002 Report Posted September 28, 2002 I remember that RAW very well, but my favourite is 26/5/97.
Guest kingkamala Posted September 28, 2002 Report Posted September 28, 2002 I find it funny that the Nitro main event on 4-21-97 was DDP Vs Psychosis and was half a minute long and the most noticable things about the show was Roddy Piper, Ric Flair and Kevin Greene doing an interview together and Scott Hall returning. Pretty sad...but then again the Raw main event on 4-21-97 was The Undertaker Vs Hunter Hearst Helmsley(Post Greenwich snob pre DX HHH)
Guest Dmann2000 Posted September 29, 2002 Report Posted September 29, 2002 And it beat RAW with that main event too. Why did it take another year?
Guest godthedog Posted September 30, 2002 Report Posted September 30, 2002 same reason people didn't tune in more when benoit was god for 2 weeks: wrestling fans are stupid.
Guest Lord of The Curry Posted September 30, 2002 Report Posted September 30, 2002 2 weeks? More like a solid month and then some. - Canadian Chris Connection vs Two Man Power Trip - Canadian Chris Connection vs E and C - Benoit vs Angle cage match - Benoit dragging a watchable match out of Big Show - Benoit vs Austin I and II
Guest godthedog Posted September 30, 2002 Report Posted September 30, 2002 2 weeks? More like a solid month and then some. - Canadian Chris Connection vs Two Man Power Trip - Canadian Chris Connection vs E and C - Benoit vs Angle cage match - Benoit dragging a watchable match out of Big Show - Benoit vs Austin I and II all but 2 of those matches occurred within those 2 weeks, and i don't consider the edge & christian match to be all that special. his work after those 2 weeks was still very good, but the great matches didn't come in such a rapid succession. when you do a 2/3 falls match, a tag team turmoil match, the best raw main event in 4 years (and possibly ever), a TLC match, and 2 ppv-quality full-length matches with steve austin (one of which is MOTYC), all in the span of ten days, then you're wrestling like a god. he was still working great after that till the injury, but the fed wasn't pushing him as hard & he didn't have as much a chance to shine. so he wasn't really a god after that.
cawthon777 Posted September 30, 2002 Report Posted September 30, 2002 It was a good Raw, I'll give you that much. I would go with the MSG show from that September as the best. Pillman/Owen and Ahmed/Rocky in the IC title tournament, the debut of Cactus as he beats Triple H, Bret/Goldust. A good ending as the Harts and DX brawl, with Davey Boy still selling the ankle injury sustained two days earlier at ONE NIGHT ONLY, with the Undertaker cleaning house. The show also included the first time Austin hit the Stunner on McMahon. After the show, Bret beat Taker and HBK in a triple threat match, which I would personally love to see as well.
