Guest Downhome Report post Posted January 19, 2003 That match surprisingly wasn't that bad. Would've been better with someone like Tajiri. However when you consider that it was with Chuck it wasn't that bad. I have been totally pleased with the matches so far. Not only that, but damnit, I MARKED OUT for Palumbo's Power Bomb into the corner, I haven't seen that since watching my last Kobash match, heh. Bring on Spanky!

Guest The Electrifyer Report post Posted January 19, 2003 http://superstars.allprowrestling.com/prof...erican%20Dragon check out the first paragraph..and they have his entrance video on the site? edit: Only two more to 1000...whoa. From that entrance video, American Dragon looks more like an American Dragon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Amazing Rando Report post Posted January 19, 2003 i can see the execs... "erm...ah...sorry...you can't look cooler than Chuck Palumbo......here...wear these white tights..." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JustJoe2k5 0 Report post Posted January 19, 2003 Originally, before I had seen any Ring of Honor, I also thought American Dragon would have some sort of elaborate costume. But, when you think about it, an American wrestler in a Mexican type costume might look stranger than just white tights. I always say let the wrestling speak for the wrestler, not the costume. American Dragon-Jamie Noble was really good, in my opinion. Glad to see the crowd was into it. Hopefully, Spanky-Shannon Moore will be just as good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JustJoe2k5 0 Report post Posted January 19, 2003 I hate how The Cat will make fun of some of these one-time deal guys. He was knocking on American Dragon earlier even though American Dragon is ten times better than The Cat ever was. I want to see The Amazing Red on Velocity, I want to see how WWE fans will react to his style. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest El Satanico Report post Posted January 19, 2003 But, when you think about it, an American wrestler in a Mexican type costume might look stranger than just white tights. Well Blitzkreig looked fine in a Lucha Libre type costume. However no one here is really bitching about him not having a costume, it's just that they could've at least had him wear better tights.

Guest Downhome Report post Posted January 19, 2003 Was it really worth it to have a character die on their programming, just in order to have a FAKE, Stepmom/Stepdaughter match at the Rumble? Does anyone even care that it's being billed as that? Does anyone actually believe it? Why does the WWE have such an urge to have a match billed as that anyhow?

JustJoe2k5 0 Report post Posted January 19, 2003 Yeah, wasn't that when Dean Malenko dressed as Ciclope at Slamboree '98 so he could get a shot at Chris Jericho's Cruiserweight title. That was a pretty cool move, but Chris Jericho eventually got the title back through his "Conspiracy" angle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest El Satanico Report post Posted January 19, 2003 Eh i don't think it's Cat ripping on them personally. He's just doing the "who are these bums they can't compete with our guys" commentary. I'm sure they like to play that up in order to be able to play the upset card. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That was a pretty cool move, but Chris Jericho eventually got the title back through his "Conspiracy" angle. I believe the storyline was that Dean couldn't get a title shot for some reason, so he dressed up like Ciclope and won the small Cruiser Rumble, took the mask off at the end and Jericho was pissed, etc...
